Rumia Quest Revival - A New Beginning

// Ah okay so we haven't left our group yet, then
> Perform previous actions

[Raikaria]

EDIT: Ahh didn't see the reply
> "Whats coffee?"
> "Kogasa and Cirno can you keep an eye on Mayina and Donita while we check up ahead?  Cirno, if they try and run for it trap them with ice"

> "It's a drink made with hot water and beans." Luna says. "Most fairies don't like it."

> "You forgot sugar Luna." Star says.

> "No I didn't."

> Yeah Star, who uses sugar?" Sunny remarks. "But you did forget Milk."

> "No I didn't." Luna responds.

> The three continue to argue about this drink and what they put in it.

> "I'll keep an eye on Cirno too!" Kogasa says.

> "I'll keep an eye on Kogasa then!" Cirno responds.

> Daiyousei looks at Cirno, then at Donitia and Mayina, and then back a few times.

> "I... think I'll go with you." she says. "I'm sure Cirno will be alright for a little while."

[Tom]

> "How about we have some coffee later and decide what works best?"
> "But for now let's see who's up ahead"

[Raikaria]

> "How about we have some coffee later and decide what works best?"
> "But for now let's see who's up ahead"

> "Most people don't like it, and you'd have to have three to decide wouldn't you?" Luna remarks.

> You go ahead first, with the others following, and see the strange youkai in front of the cave. She raises a hand to her cheek in a paw like manner.

> "Hello; so you're the ones I kept smelling. I'm Auun!" she says happily.

[Tom]

> "Hi, I'm Rumia!"
> "What are you doing all the way out here?"

[Raikaria]

> "Hi, I'm Rumia!"
> "What are you doing all the way out here?"

> "That's a name! You smell of youkai!"

> "I was asked to guard this cave." Auun replies happily. "Miss Reimu asked me to."

[Tom]

> "When did Reimu ask you?  And from who are you guarding it from?"

[Raikaria]

> "When did Reimu ask you?  And from who are you guarding it from?"

"Last night. I saw her leaving the shrine and I asked her if she wanted it guarded. Instead she told me to guard this cave and not let anyone in or out." Auun says in a cheerful tone.

// To other players: Don't attack her, I'm not trying to
> What do we think of Auun, could we easily defeat her?
> Where is Clownpiece
> Can we shoot invisible bullets (if we ignore the rules of course), like by manipulating light and dark so the bullets emit no light?
> Can we light things on fire with danmaku or magical bullets?

[Raikaria]

>"Is that so~?"

> "Yes."

> Where is Clownpiece
> Can we shoot invisible bullets (if we ignore the rules of course), like by manipulating light and dark so the bullets emit no light?
> Can we light things on fire with danmaku or magical bullets?

> It's a bit hard to tell; she's not really giving off any power, but she must be at least competent if Reimu assigned her guard duty.

> Clownpiece is nearby, in the area, floating with the Three Fairies.

> No, the danmaku itself emits light. It's also noon, so you'd just succeed, at best, in createing a darkness bullet in broad daylight.

> It takes either specifically fire-elemental magic or very powerful magic to set things alight. You have neither. Danmaku certainly dosen't set things alight; else Gensokyo wouldn't have any forests due to fairies fighting.

[Tom]

> What about lasers, would a focused magical laser held for a while light something on fire?
> "What about the shrine, don't you also have to keep an eye on it?"

[Raikaria]

> What about lasers, would a focused magical laser held for a while light something on fire?
> "What about the shrine, don't you also have to keep an eye on it?"

> More likely it would bore through it like a drill.

> "I wanted to. I'm a Komainu after all, my species protect shrines and temples. However Miss Reimu told me to guard this place instead. It is preferable to her getting mad and chasing me off. I can smell Shinto rituals in this cave however, so it must be some kind of scared site. So I'm happy guarding it."

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>Head tilt.
>"What kind of rituals?"

[Tom]

> Have a quick look at Louise, make sure she's not losing her patience

[Raikaria]

>Head tilt.
>"What kind of rituals?"

> "I'm not quite sure, I know there's some sealing ones however."

> Have a quick look at Louise, make sure she's not losing her patience

> She's floating there, a smile on her face, unmoving.

[Tom]

> "Sealing what?"

[Raikaria]

> "Sealing what?"

> "Miss Reimu never said. I mean, she said not to let anything in or out." Auun muses.

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"Anything? Like up to and including inanimate objects?"

[Raikaria]

>"Anything? Like up to and including inanimate objects?"

> "I dunno, she just said 'anything'." Auun says, a little confused.

[Tom]

> "Alright, you look busy, we will just be on our way"
> Start heading back to check on the rest of our group
> Once we are back at our group ask Sunny "Can you manipulate light to make objects appear that are not there?"
> Also ask Luna "Can you create sounds that are not there?"

[Raikaria]

> "Alright, you look busy, we will just be on our way"
> Start heading back to check on the rest of our group
> Once we are back at our group ask Sunny "Can you manipulate light to make objects appear that are not there?"
> Also ask Luna "Can you create sounds that are not there?"

> "Aw." Auun says as you leave.

> "Nope." both fairies say at once.

> "I can only mute things." Luna explains.

> "I can only make light go in a different direction, like around something to make it invisible."

[Tom]

> "I have an idea, someone should talk to her and distract her, while the rest of us, invisibly slip past her?"
> "Mystia you said she has a good sense of smell, however  I doubt she can tell apart the scents of multiple people"

[Raikaria]

> "I have an idea, someone should talk to her and distract her, while the rest of us, invisibly slip past her?"
> "Mystia you said she has a good sense of smell, however  I doubt she can tell apart the scents of multiple people"

> "No; she asked me where my friends where earlier. She can smell multiple people." Mystia says. "She knew there was more than just me."

[To prevent going around in circles here, unless you can throw off Aunn's nose, you're not sneaking past. There are a few ways I have in mind of getting past her without fighting, but Sunny's abilities are not the answer. And even then, the cave entrance is not large so it would be tough actually getting past her]

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"Say, Mystia, your band-mate is a doglike youkai too, right? Any tips on how to seduce one?"
>Wait for her reaction.

//Please do not advance time too much for this parse, I plan to react to Mystia's reaction within moments of it occurring in game.

[Raikaria]

>Wait for her reaction.

//Please do not advance time too much for this parse, I plan to react to Mystia's reaction within moments of it occurring in game.

> Mystia turns bright red; her wings fluttering. "What are you getting at!"

[Evil_Nazgul0616]

>"I'm joking, I'm joking!"
>Chuckle.
>"Though I have to say, that was an interesting reaction... Anyway, I wonder if she'll let us in if we befriend her. Like... prove to her that we're trustworthy and all."

[Raikaria]

>"I'm joking, I'm joking!"
>Chuckle.
>"Though I have to say, that was an interesting reaction... Anyway, I wonder if she'll let us in if we befriend her. Like... prove to her that we're trustworthy and all."

> "That's not a funny joke..." Mystia pouts.

> "How would we go about proving we're trustworthy to her however?" Wriggle asks. "From what it looks like she seems to be enjoying guarding the cave."

[Tom]

// There's always the Touhou way getting past obstacles ... with danmaku
// But we should in all means exhaust all other options before that
> "So she said her species protects sacred places..."
> Mischievous smile
> "We could play a prank on her and tell her that a ghost is attacking the Hakurei Shrine.  Sunny you could be invisible and move objects around and make her think it's haunted"
> "Then while she is distracted performing purification rituals we could be exploring the cave"
