> How about that Shrine in the forest, not a lot of people know it exist, and the Shrine Maiden at least somewhat believes in the super natural, so she might not freak out to much by the wings

>It's on the other side of town, but you think it'd work out pretty well. Good and hidden, at least.
>Assuming Reimu doesn't throw you out and call the cops.

> "Hmm..."
> "Well, there's Reimu, in the abandoned shrine out in the woods. There's Yukari, in [I actually forget what part of town Yukari's from, insert it here]. And then...Parsee, you're gonna hate this, but there's Yuugi and her gang."

>"Abandoned sounds good," says Parsee. "And, the outskirts with Yukari might not be so bad. But...no, I'm not stay with Yuugi. I'd rather sleep in an alley that that bum on the rollerboard!"

>"Renko and Maribel would probably love to see this, but... I'd really hate to bring the military on their heads"

>"Yeah, they would," says Parsee. "And...you're right. They don't deserve that, even if Maribel doesn't have an ounce of respect."

>"I'm not sure it's a good idea to stay with people we're known to associate with. The people after us know who we are. They might start checking friends and such. I'm wondering if the forest might really be the safer bet."

>You were smart enough to leave most of your things at Parsee's, knowing you'd have no access to them. The fuckers got your purse, though. You liked that purse...

> Consider the forest in general if only to lose the heat for awhile.

>The forest has a tendency to be full of snakes, from what you've seen. You don't know if you want to be there after dark.

>"I'm not sure it's a good idea to stay with people we're known to associate with. The people after us know who we are. They might start checking friends and such. I'm wondering if the forest might really be the safer bet."

>"Not many people know we're with the detectives, right?" asks Parsee. "But yes, that place in the forest would be the best."
>You have make your way around to the east side of the Institute. I should just be a straight for and a few blocks over to the university parking lot.
