[Got some repeat commands here, such as requests for names]

> "The red one is called Riga; the Blue one is called Tallinn" Alice says.

> "I'll basically need you to stay still and hold the doll you want to take with you for a while, while I attune both of them." Alice explains.

> You also note Daiyousei isn't much of a fighter. Although, she's also the best at

[I chose Riga and Tallinn because they're capitals of two small countries [They're small dolls] with good relations; specifically Latvia and Estonia.]

//EDIT:wrong auto-correct kikcking in/fluency] Ah thank you ! That is the reason "Riga " / " Tsalinn "vaguely familar,especially by the the pair-up for communication highlighted by red-blue (both Latvia and Estonia national) own design and inter-community tie ! Glad more info about them,that was my aim with a side-joke(Hourai?Shangai?)    :D //

> Simply hug Riga as motionlessly as we can,no movement like de-huggle ,until after the 7 threads are gone and Alice says so.

> Keep note of the Energy Drain.

> Stop huggling it since Alice disapproves
> Keep steady and focus our energy in to the link

// Aah, that is the reason they sounded vaguely family and about the the pair-up for communication the red-blue connection by design ! Glad more info about them,that was my aim with a side-joke(Hourai?Shangai?)    :D //

> Simply hug Riga as motionlessly as we can,no movement like de-huggle ,until after the 7 threads are gone and Alice says so.

> Keep note of the Energy Drain.

> You figure since Alice told you not to move stopping the doll-hug would cause more annoyance, since this is movement.

> The drain starts to feel slightly stronger as the link brightens, until suddenly; Riga turns Blue and Tallinn turns red. The rainbow connection fades, and you no longer feel anywhere near the same amount of drain in energy. Only a very, very slow trickle.

> "There, the dolls are attuned to my magical signal and yours. They should be able to communicate across Gensokyo; although I wouldn't rely in it outside of Gensokyo." Alice says.

> "Alice?"

> You go outside, and after a couple of attempts; you hear Alice say "Yes; I hear you."

>Consider the viability of each of our teammates if we were to leave one behind to stay with Alice

> Cirno is certainly a bad idea, as mentioned before. Likewise; keeping Cirno in line without Daiyousei would be rough.

> You don't see any particular problems with leaving Wriggle and Mystia; except losing their own skills; such as their abilities to communicate with insects and birds.

> Mayina being left behind is probably an absolutely awful idea; at least, alone, but that said; you can see leaving him behind in the sense of being out of danger also... sensible. You're also unsure if he'd behave around Alice; especially given he was originally after her Grimoire. [But you're also pretty much certain he would stand absolutely no chance against Alice; let alone the residents of Eientei.]

> Kogasa is the only one of the group who's been to Makai, and also doesn't need to breathe so is fine going there if the need arises. But you've also known her for about a day and a half and she's already shown to be... less than focused on anything that isn't surprising people.

// I want Mayina with us so we can do some relationship building
// In leaning towards leaving Cirno and Daiyousei as they are pretty much indestructible
[  :ohdear: ! Much of this player Meta-Discussion is :wikipedia: ! ]
// Alright,team-building with Mayina and not only him.

// :wikipedia:  :blush:  ;)  A pair is too much,but also leaving 1 of them would be mostly unfit,in fact because they are potentially,not totally, indestructible,but could still be exhausted/defeated without going through"fairy-nature" recovery .
//Examples being Nature-Dependant,Sealable ;though it would take a quite skilled specialized effort mespecially for Cirno&Daiyousei  ;it would be easier to either Defeat Fairies and Complete Objective(s) or to Continually Defeat/Drive Them Away/Stunning/Combination of Power&Magic&Skills/etc.

//They are even more potentially skilled ,Example: especially together(Fairy Natural Ice Power & Skills,growing, teamed with Fairy Calm-Headness & Counsels,also limited self-teleportation).

// Wriggle(Rumia's Best Friend) could be more fit for the task both monitor,track,spy,Warn AND being hardly-detectable,partly by herself, especialy working by her with Manipulation of Inscects(Insect-Limited)set-up some ambush/counter or better yet help set them-up:the others I agree,like,including Mystia and Kogasa are still for the Team
with Rumia,until all the team is gathered.
//Finally as a Last-Resort of her--->"Last World :Little Butterfly Storm",certain knowledge /experience/movements abouh Forerts&Underbrush(In Canon, in "Inaba of the Moon&Earth" she reached Eintei and was a bother to Reisen until Tewi intervened),some boost and avoidance by "Wriggle Kick". :wikipedia:


> Smile and do come back inside : "Even with the small drain and magic focusing,they are Neat & Useful! Thanks a lot,Alice!So in Gensokyo both us ,after we activate Riga and Tsalinn,and  others can hear and talk on borh ends....

> Sun,Sky,Weather Status,fly somewhat if uncertain,then...

> Re-group with the others standing between our team and Alice,closer to the 1st "...In fact with such neatness ,is it necessary or not that 1among us,in addition to the Eientei,who is fit&willing would stand  here by you,Alice,just until the Elis issue is somehow adjusted and a good chunk of the Heretic Makaian one too ?

//As before, I say yes, since murphy's law exists and I've had moments in past quests where I was lulled into a false sense of security and things quickly became worse because precautions weren't taken.

//Besides we can handle missing a single person. iirc Kogasa was AWOL through at least one of the fights we've been in (can't remember if it was Donnie or Mayina tho.).

//Wriggle seems to be the best choice if we do end up leaving someone. She's proven to be the most trustworthy.
- Cirno is a definite no.
- While Daiyousei is a good option on paper, it'll be problematic to leave Cirno (with Alice or Us) without Dai-chan there keep her in line.
- Kogasa can't be trusted to follow directions because she'll take not following them as an opportunity to surprise us.
- Mystia doesn't know when to shut up.
- Wriggle is our best friend and literally the only one that hasn't proven to have faults from what we've seen so far. She also has access to an early warning system (bugs), and is really our only reliable ally right now.

//Weren't going to go check on the portal Mayina came out of to see if it's unfrozen so we could refreeze it if it was unfrozen and still open? In that case we still need Cirno.
//I doubt reverse psychology would work on Kogasa, like saying that we wouldn't be surprised if she didn't follow what we tell her to do.
//So I guess Wriggle is our best bet for leaving someone behind.

// We wanted to investigate the portal since we have miasma protection which gives us unrestricted access to Makai.  It also won't hurt to refreeze it because its been a while since we were last there.
