Yuki:

> "...? Mai, look..."

Mai:

> "What is it?"
> Look at the little girl.
> How she looks?

> Mai; on Yuki's notice; looks back at the little girl.

> You can only see her face; but she has straight; long brown hair and brown eyes. She also looks sleepy.

Yuki:

> "Do you think we need to approach?"

Mai:

> "She has her attention in me, so don't even try."
> Start flying to get closer, but slowly. We don't want to startle her.
> As we get close to the little girl, can we feel any kind of magical energy in her? Or another class?

(I will tend to have Mai try to be subtle and deceptive more, while Yuki is a very direct and straight-forward person.  Neither is really more competent than the other, but the clash of attitudes makes for some frustrations or comedy, depending on the situation.)

> Yuki: "Ask her where we are while you're up there."
> Mai: "Yeah, sure."  Good thing for these wings, I can pretend to be an angel instead of an alien...
Life and death are without purpose.  Our attempts to give them one are quite presumptuous of us.  But in the end, we exist, and that is enough.

Current status: Dissuading deliberately choking for imagined fame.

> As we get close to the little girl, can we feel any kind of magical energy in her? Or another class?

> Yuki stays still as Mai begins to approach.

> The little girl backs up a little and trembles as you approach.

> You cannot feel any magic at all eminateing from the girl.

> This time; when Yuki speaks; the little girl briefly looks towards her; before she looks back to the approaching Mai.

> "Wwwhy do you have wings?" the girl asks sheepishly.

> You were already slowly floating towards her; but you accelerate slightly. The girl reacts by retreating inside the window as you approach, since she still doesn't trust you. You can still see her now you are in the air and level with her; but Yuki can't see her now from where she is. Yuki backs up into the middle of the street so she can see.

> "You're an alien?" the girl asks; suddenly excited.

> You do not know what dimension you are even in.

> But you and Yuki both know almost nothing about Gensokyo; let alone the fact it is only a small part sealed away from a larger world. You do not currently have the information to know where you are.

> "Sure there was. It's 11pm; go to bed."

> There is quiet for a few moments, before you hear the door close. The window closes too.

> "Interesting." the shadow says with a somewhat distorted; yet feminine voice. "To think that you would be able to cross between worlds. But I advise you to return."

> "Forgive me for my impudence; but in my world; it doesn't matter who you are." the shadow says. "But this is not a world that is kind to magic."

> The shadow begins to give off an impressive amount of magical power; as if it is attempting to intimidate you. You have heard that those few with magic in worlds with little tend to be abnormally strong. As if the magic all collects in these few gifted individuals to survive.

> "I would prefer to not have to use force. I am pretty strong, you know. Even if there are two of you." the girl says calmly.

> It paused a moment, and added. "I do not mean to force you away to stop your investigating. It will cause problems if the people without magic see you. The vast majority of people do not even know magic exists anymore. The people of this world tend to react violently to that which they do not understand."

Mai:

> "If you can help us, then the faster we can leave your world."

> The shadow remains silent for a longer period than before. Unmoving.

> The shadow ripples with a faint blue magical light, before the darkness fades away and what is obviously an Astral Projection is revealed from within the shadow; a blue; spectral figure of a being strong with magic. It has obvious marks of a novice in the practice, such as small wisps of energy being given off from inefficiency. But still; the fact that anyone in a world as devoid of magic as this one could produce a stable Astral Projection is impressive; even if it is imperfect.

> "I hope you understand me not meeting you personally." the projection says. "If someone were to see me actually flying; it wouldn't end well. If you must investigate; fine. Follow me.I'd rather you stick your noses where they don't belong and go than stay and cause trouble for me and yourselves."
