Greater Centenary Festival - Heavenly Cross/I

[Tashi]

Daiyousei:

> That was probably it then...

> Let's proceed until something notable happens.

> You are already with the gate spectators...
> _

[Neovereign]

>Proceed as in continue our actions.

[Tashi]

>Proceed as in continue our actions.

> (Daiko) You can see... something.

> (Daiyousei) "So what's up?" Cirno asks.
> "Well, uh... It seems the Young Mistress escaped somehow..." Koa tells her.
> "That or someone helped her." Patchouli says.
> "B-But who?" Koa looks at Patche, who just shrugs.

> (Kiku) ... It takes you a bit of effort to properly wake up. And even so, you still feel dizzy and sleepy.
> Though, while this is true, you are able to notice that you aren't licking Koakuma...
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

> Try to observe it better...

Daiyousei:

> "So she shouldn't be out?"

Kiku:

> "Nn..."

[Tashi]

Daiko:

> Try to observe it better...

> It's a figure... A fast moving one. Considering past days, you are already accustomed to see that figure and to whom it belongs.

Daiyousei:

> "So she shouldn't be out?"

> "No." Patchouli says.

> "FLAAAAN!"
> "C'mooon! Let me enjoy thiiis!" Flandre keeps escaping from her sister.

Kiku:

> "Nn..."

> "Hmm..."
> Noticing better... you think you have been licking Kurumi's cheek, who is asleep and is hugging you tightly, the same going for you.
> -

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

> "Oh, Aya."
>Where is she going? Down? Towards us? Away from us?

Daiyousei:

>"It doesn't look like she's causing any trouble, outside of just incon... uh, troubling Remilia..."

Kiku:

>Look around.

[Tashi]

Daiko:

> "Oh, Aya."
>Where is she going? Down? Towards us? Away from us?

> None of those. She's going here and there, but not going away from the mountain. That kind of movements makes you think she's taking pictures.

Daiyousei:

>"It doesn't look like she's causing any trouble, outside of just incon... uh, troubling Remilia..."

> "Being outside is too dangerous for the Young Mistress..." Meiling says.
> Koakuma subtly, VERY SUBTLY, looks at you. It's like she's trying to tell you something with it...

Kiku:

>Look around.

> Looking around, you find yourself that you are on a bed with her. This room is...
> "Oh, you finally woke up." Yuuka speaks. She is sitting on a chair that is next to the fancy bed.
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>Well, keep proceeding.

Daiyousei:

>"Maybe we can convince her to return inside..."

Kiku:

>"Huh?"
>Examine ourself and Koakuma.

[Tashi]

Daiko:

>Well, keep proceeding.

> You keep going...
> It's indeed Aya. She's indeed taking pictures and has not noticed you.

Daiyousei:

>"Maybe we can convince her to return inside..."

> "Convince... the Young Mistress..." Meiling mumbles.

Kiku:

>"Huh?"
>Examine ourself and Koakuma.

> You examine yourself.
> You are still wearing your usual clothes. Though they are pretty messy right now, probably due to moving a lot while asleep. You bet your skirt is again showing things they shouldn't, but gladly Yuuka isn't able to see it.
> Examining Kurumi you notice she still has her pajamas. She's comfortably asleep.
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>Continue on, wondering what she's possibly taking pictures of. The landscape?

Daiyousei:

>Nod~

Kiku:

>"Good...morning?"

[Tashi]

Daiko:

>Continue on, wondering what she's possibly taking pictures of. The landscape?

Daiyousei:

>Nod~

Kiku:

>"Good...morning?"

> You continue, until she finally spots you.
> "Ah!"
> Quickly appearing in front of you and blinding you with the flash of her camera, Aya greets you in her usual way.
> "Hi once again!" She sounds more energetic than usual.

> "... Sounds hard..."
> "Very hard." Patchouli adds. "Very much so."
> "I-It can't be that bad..." Koa says.

> "Morning." Yuuka responds. "Did you forgot already?"
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>"T-Took you a moment to notice me. Morning Aya. So how are you? Energetic and jubilant, likely..."

Daiyousei:

>Maybe the simplest of attempts could work? Asking directly without tricks or treats?
>"Flan! Wanna go inside?"

Kiku:

>"Forget?"

[Tashi]

Daiko:

>"T-Took you a moment to notice me. Morning Aya. So how are you? Energetic and jubilant, likely..."

> "As you can see, my job is taking my time away. Being as passioned as I am is a blessing." Aya says with a cocky smile that just an ace reporter as her can pull of. "I am preparing the next release."

Daiyousei:

>Maybe the simplest of attempts could work? Asking directly without tricks or treats?
>"Flan! Wanna go inside?"

> Flandre, at the moment you say that, stops to look at you confused. She was, luckily, near.
> "Huh? Why would I wanna go insi-aaaaiduu!"
> Of course, due to this, Remilia finally tackles her sister. It's a funny sight.
> "Oh, she got her." Patchouli says.

Kiku:

>"Forget?"

> "Remember? That ritual you did for Orange's sake last night... You passed away." Yuuka tells you.
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>"Uh huh. I'm just visiting someone. Someone else told me that they wanted to speak to me or something."
>We're still going, right?

Daiyousei:

> "Oh..."

Kiku:

>"I'm... alive, though."

[Tashi]

Daiko:

>"Uh huh. I'm just visiting someone. Someone else told me that they wanted to speak to me or something."
>We're still going, right?

> You aren't. Aya made you stop with her sudden greeting.
> "Oh, I won't stop you, then. Expect to see nice things on the newspaper today~"

Daiyousei:

> "Oh..."

> "Get oooff!" Flandre struggles.
> "You can't get ooout!" Remilia pins her.
> They look... so childish...

Kiku:

>"I'm... alive, though."

> "You looked more dead than unconscious. Luckily, it didn't ended up like that."
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>"Ooh, really?"

Daiyousei:

>Look back to the others.

Kiku:

>"Phew..."

[Tashi]

Daiko:

>"Ooh, really?"

> "What, you really thought Hatate and I interviewed you for nothing~" Aya giggles.

Daiyousei:

>Look back to the others.

> You look at the others.
> Strangely enough they just watch, not doing anything.
> Meiling finally reacts and approaches ot them.
> Meiling takes both of them as if plushies. They are still arguing...

Kiku:

>"Phew..."

> "You okay?"
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>"Ah...Right."

Daiyousei:

>Watch quietly.

Kiku:

>"I think so..."

[Tashi]

Daiko:

>"Ah...Right."

Daiyousei:

>Watch quietly.

Kiku:

>"I think so..."

> Aya nods. "Hope you are prepared to be in it."

> You watch as Meiling, with a poker face, walks inside the mansion.
> You can still hear how the sisters are arguing...
> The fairies that were in commotion slowly start to return, some giggling, while others dumbfounded.
> "..." Patchouli sighs.
> Koa looks at you.

> "That's nice. You should tell everyone about it. Most of them were worried."
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>"Don't make it terrible for me please..."

Daiyousei:

>"W-Well... That wasn't hard... nor very hard..."

Kiku:

>Nod.

[Tashi]

Daiko:

>"Don't make it terrible for me please..."

> "Why would I? You helped with the vampire stuff, hey."

Daiyousei:

>"W-Well... That wasn't hard... nor very hard..."

> "Lucky." Patchouli shrugs and starts to go inside as well.

Kiku:

>Nod.

> "Oh, one more thing..." Yuuka stands up.
> "Did you already saw the statue at the garden?"
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>Nod.

Daiyousei:

>"Ehehe..."

Kiku:

>"Hm?"

[Tashi]

Daiko:

>Nod.

Daiyousei:

>"Ehehe..."

Kiku:

>"Hm?"

> "Well then, this ace reporter has job to do! See ya' later!"
> And just like how she approached, the highspeed tengu goes away to keep doing her job.

> Waiting a bit for Patchouli to get inside the mansion, Koakuma looks at you and Cirno with a... very much guilty look.
> "... I-It was me..." She admits.

> "My, you surely are forgetful when waking up... The thing I requested you before. To go to the Garden of the Sun. I am pretty sure you saw a pretty peculiar statue of a woman and a baby."
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>Proceed.

Daiyousei:

>"Oh..."

Kiku:

>"I think..."

[Tashi]

Daiko:

>Proceed.

Daiyousei:

>"Oh..."

Kiku:

>"I think..."

> You continue on. Onwards the Moriya Shrine!

> Koa fidgets. "I-I guess it wasn't a good idea..."
> "Why you let her out?" Cirno asks.
> "I admit that... I would like if the Young Mistress can enjoy being outside, so..."

> Yuuka nods. "That's nice. I wanted for someone else to see it."
> She gently nudges the vampire who is hugging you.
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>Note when we arrive or see Sanae.

Daiyousei:

>"I guess I'd like that too..."

Kiku:

>"Mm..."
>Gentle poke~

[Rin Satsuki]

Daiko:

>Note when we arrive or see Sanae.

Daiyousei:

>"I guess I'd like that too..."

Kiku:

>"Mm..."
>Gentle poke~

> You continue.

> "Huh? But that seems to be a bad idea in the end... I mean, the Young Mistress is just... too immature to be outside..."

>You poke gently
> "Hmm..." Kurumi moves, slowly opening her eyes.
> "Good morning sleep head." Yuuks says.
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiyousei:

>"Maybe we should help that somehow?"

Kiku:

>"Oh. Sorry."

[Tashi]

Daiyousei:

>"Maybe we should help that somehow?"

Kiku:

>"Oh. Sorry."

> "H-Help it?" Koa questions. "But... i-it's the Young Mistress..."

> "Uh...?" She seems confused and still sleepy. Almost sure she would fall asleep if you let her be. "Oh... good morning Yuuka, Kiku..." She smiles sleepily.
> "You don't seem to mind her."
> "Why-" Kurumi yawns. "-would I?"
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiyousei:

>"She shouldn't have to stay in forever though. She doesn't own the mansion and she can't even go outside of it."

Kiku:

>Shift a bit.
