>"That's not surprising, I felt similar. I imagine Mai and Satono got an earful after we left."

>"I don't know," says Tojiko. "I get the feeling that she doesn't have it in her to be hard on those two."

// Ah Great Fun Reply  :] :dragonforce: ,esp. the Yukari's Resume! //
>"Long lives lead to long grudges unforunately. As I said to Shou, Yukari agreed to look into my problem. I think she suspects something but at the same time I don't think she's physically capable of explaining things without being needlessly mysterious. She asked me to deliver a message to the Scarlet Devil Mansion's maid in return, and while I was there I visited their library and asked Patchouli if she knew anything about all this. She did have some possibly related books but it would be a matter of going back and going through a bunch of old books."
>"If I go and fill Byakuren in on what's happened I imagine you won't want to come with me?"

// Oh there is also chances to backtrack to Eirin&Reisen,partly-chances are also on Tewi&/or Kaguya//
>Warm wave to Tojiko while going politely check in and fill in to Byakuren unless there are signs she is going to be busy for a time needed to relay those info.
> Remember Patchouli also mentioned she'd be keen in letting Petite (// Koakuma // ) ,her "chuckling&shadowy assistant-familiar",assisting us by Books and to let her know about "Answers"  ; it'd be a grand voyage if any among us  could add it to a Research and to others' Knowledge,Experience and Intuition .

> And that there could also be a time when another fit help-mate,no matter if short-lived, could come across in or to&from the Scarlet Mansion or its Lake and Crossroads.

> Remind also we should choose a proper time&place to Go Full-Ghost for checking how that ... remnant of Stargazer's faring ;maybe Byakuren could help now or in the future or be having some tip  ?

>"Ok I shouldn't be too long."
>Start walking to the temple.

>You make a few mental notes, and head toward the temple.
> The temple is quiet now, with little in the way of chanting or anything else going on. Poking your head into the main temple, you see Ichirin is there, meditating. Given the time of day, you sidle into the kitchen and find her there; kneeling her huge form at the counter and chopping vegetables with a knife that seems almost comically tiny in her hand.

>She gives the plant a look. "What an odd little thing. It seems very hardy, don't you think?"
>Once you voice your concerns about being stuck, Byakuren nods. "Do not worry, I won't say a think to her. And I'm sure if you do get stuck, you'll find some way to tell us."

>Byakuren nods. "It's not as though the Taoists are innately bad, I've worked with Miss Toyosatomimi on occasion. But, they are mistaken on some very key things, and have difficulty with that disagreement we have. So offer her your trust as needs be, but try not to lose sight of that."
