Tricky IM/IP contest OVER!
Yukarin:
Magic square. Horizontally, diagonally, or vertically, it adds up to 12.
There are 3 rows and columns. Each row and column adds 12, so if we add the answer of the three rows, that's 36. If we add the two digits of that, that is 9. Not to mention that 36 is divisible by 9.
3 rows again. Each row adds up to 12. We add the two digits and the answer is 3. Ditto for the other two rows. Add that and it becomes 9. Also that 3 is the square root of 9.
I'll think of more theories as to why Cirno's the answer but yeah. Goddamit, I wish I wasn't spouting out random nonsense.
Dormio Ergo Sum:
Okay, so the sum is 12.
Clearly this is referring to Touhou 12.
Which character is currently running rampant on these forums from Touhou 12?
Kogasa Tatara.
It just so happens that Pesco is also using this character for his avatar.
Coincidence? I think not.

Don't be hatin' cause you missed the Kogasa boat!
Dormio Ergo Sum:
I-it's not like I cried myself to sleep when I couldn't join you guys or anything.
I mean, w-why would I even want to be a part of that?
T-the only reason I-I even looked at it was because I was pitying all of you.
W-what? Don't give me that look!
Y-y-you're misunderstanding!
Sophilia:
Here's my half-assed go at it.
The sum is 12.
There are 8 ways to make it.
8 x 12 = 96.
96 can be factored into 2^5 x 3.
2^5 x 3...The fifth power of two, and also three...
So I guess Mima. L5 boss of SoEW, and in PoDD.
This also factors into why the riddle has the form it does - Mima is in Mystic Square as well.
(and then she was KILL BY YUKARI)
