Yukari Quest, continued?!

[Dormio Ergo Sum]

"Well it is from you~" poke at her cheek, it's good adivice though..its a big part of why you got a shikigami, and why you talk with Yuyuko.

Though Bakuren is pretty cute, too.

>The satori shrugs.
>"If you're satisfied with that, I'll say no more."
>She seems like an understanding person, at the very least.

[nolrai2]

Wonder if Satori has met her.
"Why are you named after your race anyway?"

"Why are you named after your race anyway?"

>The Satori shakes her head.
>"I don't know why I have this name, only that it is my name."
>At this point, Nitori interrupts your conversation.
>"So, do you plan to do anything with Momiji?"

>_

[Shadoweh]

> "I'm.. not sure. Do you have any idea what's wrong with her? Does Hatate?"

[Dormio Ergo Sum]

> "I'm.. not sure. Do you have any idea what's wrong with her? Does Hatate?"

>"I'm not sure, but I think I do. It's a bit long, though, so I'll try to keep it as short as possible."
>"First of all, I'm pretty sure that she believes that I'm still a complete monster. Which means that, for Hatate to be working with me, she thinks that Hatate has become like I once was."
>"Now, Momiji and I? We used to be pretty close friends, which made it all the more painful for her when I did what I did. She blamed herself for failing to recognize what I was becoming and stopping me."
>"That by itself could break some people, but not Momiji. She kept going with her life, after all, she still had things to do."
>"Now, her relationship with Hatate... That's a little more complex. Yeah, sure, they were good friends but... Momiji's always had a crush on Hatate."
>"Unfortunately for her, Hatate's always been obsessed with someone else. She was, and still is, completely oblivious to the fact that Momiji had an interest in her. Momiji was never going to have her true feelings reciprocated."
>"She told me that it didn't matter to her. 'As long as I can see her, I'll be satisfied.' if I recall correctly."
>"But, no, she lost Hatate too. To make things worse, she lost Hatate to me, the friend that she had failed to save all that time ago."

>_

[Hanzo K.]

>"Hmm....If she has gone insane like I suspect, then it might be a matter of working on her boundary of sane and insane. But that could be quite a task with things as they are currently."

[Tamashii Kanjou]

>"And something tells me just telling Hatate all that isn't going to make it any better."

>"The other question being, will she listen to us once she does wake up?"

[GuyYouMetOnline]

>"And here's something to think about: if she blames you, Nitori, then why is it Hatate whom she targeted?"

[Shadoweh]

> "Then again, she probably thought by killing her she'd be saving her. If you're truly not the same perhaps we can show her this and bring her back to sanity slowly."

(Everyone else posted. I just want to fit in. :< )

[Tamashii Kanjou]

[Being Shadoweh is...]

[Pets Shadoweh.]

[Adorable. Come join me in Yuuka Quest.  :3 ]

[Dormio Ergo Sum]

>"Hmm....If she has gone insane like I suspect, then it might be a matter of working on her boundary of sane and insane. But that could be quite a task with things as they are currently."

>Nitori puts her hand to her chin as she thinks.
>"Did she really seem like she had gone insane?"

>"And something tells me just telling Hatate all that isn't going to make it any better."

>"The other question being, will she listen to us once she does wake up?"

>"Hatate already knows most of the details. To fix the problem, we're going to have to do something about Momiji."
>"I'm not sure. I doubt that she would be willing to listen to me, but if you or Hatate were to talk to her..."

>"And here's something to think about: if she blames you, Nitori, then why is it Hatate whom she targeted?"

>"That's something that only Momiji could answer."

> "Then again, she probably thought by killing her she'd be saving her. If you're truly not the same perhaps we can show her this and bring her back to sanity slowly."

>"Something tells me that killing us was not her goal. If it were, why didn't she do so immediately? She certainly had the chance to."

[Shadoweh]

> "That's true.. just restraining her and having Hatate talk to her sounds like the best plan then."

[Dormio Ergo Sum]

> "That's true.. just restraining her and having Hatate talk to her sounds like the best plan then."

>"I take it that you'll be busy elsewhere?"

[Tamashii Kanjou]

>"Well, that depends on whether or not our dear wolf tengu will be awake soon."
>"In other words, how strong was that sedative you gave her?"

[Dormio Ergo Sum]

>"Well, that depends on whether or not our dear wolf tengu will be awake soon."

>"She should be up in roughly one hour."

[Shadoweh]

"Maybe you could give me a tour while we wait then~?"

[Dormio Ergo Sum]

"Maybe you could give me a tour while we wait then~?"

>"If you want, I don't see why not."

>_

[Tamashii Kanjou]

>"Then please, lead the way~ <3"

>If anything, we get to see Utsuho's current state while we're at it.
>Poor Satori.

[Dormio Ergo Sum]

>"Then please, lead the way~ <3"

>If anything, we get to see Utsuho's current state while we're at it.
>Poor Satori.

>"All right, though there isn't all that much to see."
>Nitori begins to walk through the corridors.
>The satori looks at you disapprovingly whilst Nitori begins to talk.
>"On this floor are a whole bunch of unused lab rooms."
>Nitori points out a few rooms along the corridor as she says this.
>"The cafeteria and mess hall are also on this floor. It's the only room with doubled doors."
>"Hatate's terrarium is here, too."
>Nitori continues walking until she reaches a stairwell.
>"This leads to the lower floor, which is mostly taken up by the living quarters. There are a few more lab rooms down there, that Yuuko and Fuuko like to use."
>"There is one floor below that, where I used to perform experiments."
>"Any part in particular that you want to see?"

>_

[Tamashii Kanjou]

>"Used to? I don't suppose there's anything left down there that relates to anything that has happened in these years?"

>"Out of curiosity, how many people could you get living in here?"

>If Satori is still with us.
>"Perhaps I should apologise... but is there any chance of seeing her? If anything, I wouldn't mind seeing if there are any boundaries affecting her."
>With everyone from the Myouren Temple, and to some extent, Yuyuko, being affected by a seal, there may be a chance Utsuho be affected too.

>"Well, I still use it, just not for what I used to. There are several things down there, yes."
>"Maybe twenty, thirty, people. It's not the space that's the problem, but supplies."
>"If you must."
>You can see Satori thinking.

>_

[Tamashii Kanjou]

>"Maybe I could have a look... Might help in some way."

>Turn to Satori.
>"I understand if you don't want to... I know this must be... well, I guess 'hard for you' is putting it pretty lightly."

[Dormio Ergo Sum]

>"Maybe I could have a look... Might help in some way."

>Turn to Satori.
>"I understand if you don't want to... I know this must be... well, I guess 'hard for you' is putting it pretty lightly."

>"All right. Is that alright with you, Satori?"
>The satori nods.
>"It is fine."
>The three of you head down the stairwell and along some more corridors until you reach another set of stairs.
>You walk down the stairs, into another corridor, until you reach a large room.
>In the center of the room, you can see a large display with Utsuho suspended within it.
>Something nearby also makes you feel strange.

>_

[Tamashii Kanjou]

>... Is she... I mean, Nitori said she was but...
>What direction is this feeling coming from?
>Does it feel bad or sinister?
>Does it seem to be affecting Nitori or Satori?

>More importantly, does it feel like a boundary?
>If not, can we tell what it is?

>The satori looks at you and nods.
>It is coming from past the display, most likely from beyond one of the many doors you can see.
>It does not.
>It does not appear to be affecting anyone else.
>It does not, though it definitely seems to be related to them.

[Tamashii Kanjou]

>... Follow the trail; approach whichever door it leads to and open it.

>It may not feel bad, but keep the danmaku side of our mind active.

[Dormio Ergo Sum]

>... Follow the trail; approach whichever door it leads to and open it.

>It may not feel bad, but keep the danmaku side of our mind active.

>You decide to find the source of this discomfort.
>Nitori and Satori watch you as you search.
>When you put your hand on the door that you suspect the feeling is coming from, Nitori speaks up.
>"That's where I'm keeping the machine I used to try to fix the border. It's still running."
>"And you can feel stuff like that?"
>You open the door to reveal a rather large machine sitting in the middle of the room. You can hear a soft hum coming from it as several of its parts turn in a steady motion.

>_

[Tamashii Kanjou]

>... Woah. This is... for a lone kappa to come up with this...
>"Interesting..."
>Take a look at the whole thing; if there's room, see it from all angles.
>Well, we can feel it, but does it feel, or look like, it's working?
>If not, is there anything we could do to speed the process up? Using energy or boundaries of our own?

>"How long did this take you?"

>"How long did this take you?"

>It is rather impressive.
>You walk around the edge of the room to get a look at the entire thing.
>From the back and sides, you can see a mess of wires inside the machine, connecting various parts together.
>The energy it generates seems to be dissipating rapidly after it is formed.
>Without knowing how it works, you doubt that you could.
>"Hmm, a couple months, give or take. I'd need to check the dates on my notes for an exact length."
>"Why do you ask?"
>"Actually... You could feel this machine, right? If you don't mind me asking another favor from you... Could you help me with this a bit? I think I might be able to get it working if I can just understand what it's doing right now."

[GuyYouMetOnline]

>"All I can tell right now is that the energy it's gathering is dissipatingvery quickly. I can't really say more without a better understanding of how it's supposed to work."
