Title: If you got one question
Post by: aListers on April 10, 2013, 11:15:25 PM

I was just thinking about a dream I had where I was basicly given permission to ask Alice Margatroid any question I wanted and thought of many questions, some decent - some inappropriate, but ended up asking "when am I going to see you again?"

That got me thinking. If you could ask any character in the touhou series one question, what would it be?

Walk up to Yukari.

Say "Where's Renko?"

(Possibly die a death more horrible than you could possibly imagine)



...as an aside, the question you ended up asking Alice is sad :(

One question...

It's hard to narrow it down, but I'd probably ask Eirin for a more detailed history of the Lunar Capital and their relationship with the Surface.

I'd probably ask any magician in Gensokyo how to use magic.  :derp:

If magic wasn't usable by Ye common human me, I'd probably ask Eiki for a lecture.

That's right.  :ohdear:

I would probably ask Yukari or Reimu for a way to enter and exit the boundary easily and safely.

Too many questions, but to narrow it down I'd avoid asking Mokou anything. If I were allowed just one question, I'm not sure anything I could ask an immortal would do anything but raise several more questions.

Alt answer: "One day I will die, but is it alright for us to be friends?"

I would probably ask Koishi to show me around Chireiden. Always thought it might be an interesting place. There are probably better people to ask than Koishi, but I don't really care. :V

Step 1: ask Yukari for a proof for P=NP (or the inverse).
Step 2: hand it in for the million dollar reward,
Step 3: use portion of profits to bribe Reimu for more questions


Hopefully the former would be pleasantly surprised enough that someone would ask a math/computational complexity theory question, rather than ones about magic, Gensokyo, or how her hair fits into her cap, to answer it honestly and helpfully.


That, or how 2 hermit

Probably ask Youmu about the story of how her two swords ended up with her family/how she got them. Gotta be an epic story in there.

Lol :V

Maybe it should be better to ask 1) to Eirin

Eh, Yukari's more noted for ridiculous math skill than Eirin is. The latter would be a good one to go to for something like a cancer cure, though (although I have no idea how difficult it would be to convince the medical industry to pay attention long enough to see that the stuff is legit).

Post by: Firestorm29 on April 11, 2013, 03:41:39 PM

I thought it was Ran who was the Math person...but considering she's with Yukari anyway, you still might get your answer. I suppose it depends on how Yukari would go about it.

Ran is the math person, but Yukari is better than Ran in every way, including math. Ran as a character mostly just exists to make Yukari look good.

Just so no one mistakes it for a power discussion, here's the clear-cut statement from BAiJR:

Aya: So it is akin to creating a new formula and then making another formula that will solve it. Does that mean your master... is better at numbers than you are?

Ran: It goes without saying that there is no comparison. I could never understand much less solve Lady Yukari's equations.

Kaguya: "You ever do that thing where you tee off a golf ball on the Moon and send it into space?"

Title: Re: If you got one question
Post by: haoreos2 on April 12, 2013, 06:47:01 AM

Other questions I'd consider asking include "how is it everyone you fight automatically understands the spellcard rules, and possesses the ability to use them, danmaku and flight" or basically anything to Rinnosuke, provided the resulting discussion would take at least a few pages to transcript.

How to utilise artificial nuclear fusion could also be a good one, although Okuu probably couldn't explain how to use it without Yatagarasu powers.
If I somehow knew of someone having met an interesting historical character in their lifetimes, asking about that could also prove interesting.

Kaguya: "You ever do that thing where you tee off a golf ball on the Moon and send it into space?"

It is weirdly easy to imagine Kaguya golfing, in full golf regalia, with little moon-themed golf balls.

Title: Re: If you got one question
Post by: DeltaSierra4 on April 12, 2013, 03:42:45 PM

I'd probably ask the same question as the OP to Sanae, Yuyuko, or Yukari

For the first two though I would probably ask "How can I see you again?"

Title: Re: If you got one question
Post by: Imosa on April 12, 2013, 08:50:19 PM

This would probably be a good question to Koishi. Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

You know, I'm fairly sure she would be the only one to answer the *right* thing to this. Not something funny or quirky, no, the logical answer to this illogical question.

Something so illogically logical your pitiful human mind would melt just hearing it.

Title: Re: If you got one question
Post by: Zengeku on April 13, 2013, 09:07:38 PM

I would ask Kogasa of course.

"Do you want to fugg in the bed or on the couch?"

Title: Re: If you got one question
Post by: Darkness1 on April 14, 2013, 08:46:19 PM

I would ask Satori how it would be to read the mind of another satori while the other satori reads Satoris mind while she IS reading that satoris mind at the same time as the other satori is...

I've always wanted to know >.<

Title: Re: If you got one question

I like to imagine they'd get psychic feedback in the manner of a microphone placed next to it's speaker.

Recursive Cirno is fine, too.

Title: Re: If you got one question
Post by: Gensokyo Dreadnought on May 12, 2013, 09:30:35 PM

If I had a question, and the Touhou character appeared in my dream... I would probably ask one thing.

"How do I get to Gensokyo?"

That's like the mother of all questions here, :V

If it's not impossible and I can achieve it within my human lifetime, why not, right? I'm willing to abandon all to know this answer! :D

Title: Re: If you got one question
Post by: SilentShaman on May 20, 2013, 05:38:32 AM

I'd ask Youmu to spar with me.

Title: Re: If you got one question
Post by: Power on May 26, 2013, 10:12:44 PM

I'd probably asked how gensokyo started and how it came to be today.

I'd ask Futo, "Where the heck did that boat come from?  :V " or perhaps ask Akyuu if she has any memories she holds dear to her heart.

Title: Re: If you got one question

I'd ask Tokiko "will you move in with me?"   :blush:

"Are you all really lesbian?"

I had some dreams that I talked to Kaguya, Eirin, Sakuya in very convincing situations like it's truly realistic. And that question NEVER GOT A CLEAR ANSWER D:

It says one question, so LOOPHOLE TIME!

I'd get Yukari to come to me and I would ask: "Whenever and where ever, no matter what, can you let me gap me to Gensyoko at anytime and allow me to ask more than one question?"

Still technically one question!  :V
