[Neovereign]

ExperiDai:

> "I don't know how I'm going this... It's almost like... as if someone is playing for me... and it's incredible!"
> Continue.
> Listen to Rin's thoughts.

===

Prime:

> At the room?

> "We're the only ones here." Rinnosuke says. "Unfortunately..." He looks around.
> You continue playing wondrously.
> I think she may be taking a liking to it.

> Not yet. The fusion is covering herself as the two of you go on. There are fairy maids in the halls...
>_

[Tashi]

ExperiDai:

> "Like I said, this erhu has... life energy in it... Maybe it's what is making me play like this?"
> Keep at it.

===

Prime:

> "... M-Maybe I should have brought the towels..."
> Cover ourself.
> Do we have a clear spot of Koa's room in our mind?

Prime:

> "... M-Maybe I should have brought the towels..."
> Cover ourself.
> Do we have a clear spot of Koa's room in our mind?

> "Maybe..." Rinnosuke agrees.
> Ugh... I think I should get myself and my erhu out of here before something bad happens... Sorry about this you four...
> The life energy flows back into the instrument.

> You cover yourself.
> You do.
> "You could've just warped us back..."
> "She has a thing. Why?"
> "I dunno... who is that?" The fairies converse.
>_

[Rin Satsuki]

ExperiDai:

> "Hmm..."
> How are we playing it now?

===

Prime:

> "S-Sorry . I didn't wanted to risk to clip us in anything."
> Take her hand.
> Warp us to that spot.

ExperiDai:

===

Prime:

> "S-Sorry . I didn't wanted to risk to clip us in anything."
> Take her hand.
> Warp us to that spot.

> You stopped playing it.
> The erhu's life energy starts to flow out from it to an open spot.

> You take the fusion's hand and warp safely to the room.
>_

[Rin Satsuki]

ExperiDai:

> Look at that direction.
> "Uh?"

===

Prime:

> Look around.
> "... U-Uh... W-We should clean before leaving to any place..."

[Neovereign]

ExperiDai:

> Look at that direction.
> "Uh?"

===

Prime:

> Look around.
> "... U-Uh... W-We should clean before leaving to any place..."

> A girl forms, keeping hold of the erhu and snatching it away as she appears.
> She backs up from you and Rinnosuke.
> "What the-?"
> "Thieves!" The girl shouts as danmaku is fired at you and Rinnosuke.

> "Right. I'll-... Uh..." The fusion examines the room.
> It's pretty clean, actually...
>_

[Rin Satsuki]

ExperiDai:

> Does it look like any special danmaku? And how much it is?
> How close it is?
> We can warp many bullets, right?

[Neovereign]

ExperiDai:

> Does it look like any special danmaku? And how much it is?
> How close it is?
> We can warp many bullets, right?

> It doesn't look special.
> It's practically right in front of you. How you haven't been hit and are able to perceive these actions right now is wondrous...
> Yes.

[Rin Satsuki]

ExperiDai:

> Warp all of them outside and to the sky.
> "Wait! We mean no harm!"

===

Prime:

> "... Err... I swear this wasn't like this before..."

[Neovereign]

ExperiDai:

> Warp all of them outside and to the sky.
> "Wait! We mean no harm!"

===

Prime:

> "... Err... I swear this wasn't like this before..."

> You war-
> The shot hits you, not doing much...
> Rinnosuke barely dodges the shot going towards him.
> "The heck?" Rinnosuke questions.
> The door is open and the girl is already outside.

> "Yea..."
>_

[Rin Satsuki]

ExperiDai:

> "W-Wait, Miss!"
> Look at everyone that is with us, specially Belgrade.
> "E-Everyone is alright?"

> Manifest near Kourindou, but hidden between the trees. Name this manifestation RinBug.

RinBug:

> Shrink to finger size and cloak.
> Prepare a miracle that make us undetectable, but not physically.

> Omni-observe outside Kourindou to keep an eye on the girl.

===

Prime:

> "Strange..."
> Look for our clothes.

Prime:

> "Strange..."
> Look for our clothes.

> You examine your group. Everyone seems to be alright.
> "What was with that?" Lucien asks.
> "Yea." Belgrade nods, keeping close to you, despite already being in contact.

> You manifest, shrink, then cloak.
> You prepare a miracle...
> The girl is starting to play her erhu. The music feels calming and you're starting to feel better than you do right now. You're forgetting that bad moment that happened.
> You and your group sighs warmly in comfort from the music. Rinnosuke seems to as well.

> You locate your clothes.
>_

[Rin Satsuki]

ExperiDai:

> "S-So good..."
> Look at her.

RinBug:

> Once it's done, cast it.

===

Prime:

> Look for Koa's.
> "Hey, I have been wondering... What do you think if we wear the clothes of each other?"

[Neovereign]

ExperiDai:

RinBug:

> Once it's done, cast it.

===

Prime:

> Look for Koa's.
> "Hey, I have been wondering... What do you think if we wear the clothes of each other?"

> You look to Belgrade.
> She nods again.

> You perform the miracle after it's ready.
> The music of an instrument slowly dies out...

> You locate Koa's clothes.
> "I-I don't know..." The fusion blushes.

---

HifuuBugs:

---

ReimuBug and Clone:

> Continue monitoring our hosts.

---

YamaBug:

> Continue listening.

---

HamiDai:

[Neovereign]

MikeyBug, CopBug:

> Anything new and exciting?

HifuuBugs:

> How are our hosts doing?

> Micheal is still lying with his wife, you believe.
> The vehicle is still quiet.

> Renko has gone to sleep.

ReimuBug and Clone:

> Continue monitoring our hosts.

---

YamaBug:

> Continue listening.

> Reimu seems like she'll be asleep soon.
> Maybe I should have it visit Marisa... See how those two are doing...

> "I don't think so..." Kisume shakes her head. "You could hurt her."
> "She'll be fine. You sure?"
> "Yea."

HamiDai:

> Has Hamiya had any luck yet?

Myon:

> As we're working, try preparing a miracle that will make Youmu dream again.

---

RinBug:

> Warp our life energy inside this 'Rin Satsuki'.

> She has been writing down things. You think so...

> You prepare a miracle. It's easily ready.

> You locate... Orin, right? No, Rinnosuke would be more sensible. He was your most recently visited with that sort of name...
> You warp your life energy into Rinnosuke.
> Rinnosuke looks around in confusion. As does your family. You think you remember hearing some music...

[Kilgamayan]

ReimuBug and Clone:

> Continue monitoring.

---

> Omni-observe Kisume and Yuugi to make sure they're not going to hurt Yamame or anything.

---

HamiDai:

> "Oh, are you getting some ideas now?"

---

Myon:

> Cast the spell.

---

RinBug:

> No, Rin Satsuki! The person with the erhu just now!
> Warp our life energy back to where it was.

> Omni-observe where we last saw the erhu.

[Rin Satsuki]

ExperiDai, RinBug:

> Are we still hearing the erhu play?

[Neovereign]

ReimuBug and Clone:

> Continue monitoring.

---

> Omni-observe Kisume and Yuugi to make sure they're not going to hurt Yamame or anything.

> Yea...
> The clone gets up and starts to put on more outerwear.

> They don't seem to be. They're sitting back down.
> "Thanks." Kisume nods.

HamiDai:

> "Oh, are you getting some ideas now?"

---

Myon:

> Cast the spell.

---

RinBug:

> No, Rin Satsuki! The person with the erhu just now!
> Warp our life energy back to where it was.

> Omni-observe where we last saw the erhu.

> "Yea." Hamiya nods. "Whoever wins gets to do whatever they want with their pictures... Whoever wins gets to make the loser say any one thing they want..."

> You perform the miracle.
> Youmu seems to dream again, and she is within Hakugyokurou.

> You warp your life energy back to the spot you were before.
> You don't know what an erhu is.
> You observe for what you recently saw... There was, Marisa's potion, you believe. Now Rinnosuke's over near you within the shop. You don't remember anything else happening around here.

ExperiDai, RinBug:

> Are we still hearing the erhu play?

> You don't hear anything right now. Your children are quiet.

[Rin Satsuki]

//... Fack. Well played, Rin. Well played...
//Having Internet problems btw. May not be so much around here.

ExperiDai:

> "...Wah?"

[Kilgamayan]

ExperiDai:

> "How much is this?"

//Now I'm sad that this didn't actually get parsed. This might've turned out a lot differently. Oh well.

---

ReimuBug and Clone:

> Continue monitoring.

---

YamaBug:

> Continue listening.

---

Myon:

> Prepare a spell that makes Lunasa dream.
> Cast it once it is ready.

---

HamiDai:

> "Oh...that's a lot less drastic than the sort of stuff I was thinking of. Okay, that's good to know."

---

RanBug:

> Check in again.

[Neovereign]

//Now I'm sad that this didn't actually get parsed. This might've turned out a lot differently. Oh well.

> Those-... Maybe I'm not playing good enough for her.
> Your performance starts to get better. It's almost as if you could imagine a story being read while you play...
> Rinnosuke watches your performance quietly.
>_

//It was parsed. Specified Rinnosuke watching quietly in specific. It wasn't just thrown in for nothing~

[Monarda]

//Why not use a miracle to restore our missing memories ?

[Kilgamayan]

//Curses. Ah well, it is what it is.

//Raf: Because such a spell would be founded entirely in meta-knowledge. Dai would need to know that she had missing memories before such a spell would make sense to cast.

[Monarda]

//Well then we simply ask if she remembers anything else at the store and coming out of it and stopping.

//We could also cast one to know who played that music and made us stand there still.

[Kilgamayan]

//If you want to investigate the circumstances, that's fine. That's entirely within character and is a reasonable thing to do. Just make sure Dai has a good reason to suspect she has missing memories before working to restore them.

[Monarda]

//Well being called an thief like that out of nowhere while she was just helping us play the instrument masterfully on her will makes me puzzled, upset and curious.

[Rin Satsuki]

//Do you really expect I will let Rin get away with this?

//Busy right now.

[Suwako Moriya]

//Well being called an thief like that out of nowhere while she was just helping us play the instrument masterfully on her will makes me puzzled, upset and curious.

//That's understandable (though she was clearly just doing it as a distraction to get away and I'm surprised Tashi fell for it), but does Dai remember those things? It would seem not. You need to be able to separate what you know from what Dai knows and act accordingly.

//Like I said, if you want to push Dai in the direction of investigating what just happened, through introspection and/or asking everyone else that was also there what they know, that's fine. But it is inappropriate to impart meta-knowledge on Dai and act on it that way. Working to restore memories requires Dai being given a reason in-game to suspect there are memories that need restoring.
