Reimu Quest - A Paradise At Heart

[Hanzo K.]

>Sigh. "She's almost as bad as a kid. But even they let their ears get cleaned."
>Beat.
>"I think I have an idea. Come with me."
>Let's head to a side room if there is one. Otherwise, go outside.

>Beat.
>"I think I have an idea. Come with me."
>Let's head to a side room if there is one. Otherwise, go outside.

>Miko facepalms.
>"It's because she's still used to her old ways. We only just broke her out of using 'twas' and all of that old language. Baby steps, as they say."

>You head out to the side room, which is also a corridor. Miko follows you.

[Hanzo K.]

>Kouga's with us too, right?

[Nekomata-chan]

>Kouga's with us too, right?

>Of course.

>Seiga pokes her head through the wall, but she floats back into the main room. Inside, you can hear Futo getting heated about something (probably trivial).

[Hanzo K.]

>"Now, since she's expressed an interest in Kouga, we can use that to our advantage."

[Nekomata-chan]

>"Now, since she's expressed an interest in Kouga, we can use that to our advantage."

>Miko grins.
>"Sounds like a good idea. I've never known anyone that can actually be persuasive enough with Futo, so it may be a bit of a challenge... although, I'm sure it'll be easy for Kouga."

[Hanzo K.]

>"Exactly."
>Look to Kouga. "Now, I think you know how to go about this, yes?"

[Nekomata-chan]

>"Exactly."
>Look to Kouga. "Now, I think you know how to go about this, yes?"

>Kouga nods at you, "I have an idea of how to do so, yes."

[Hanzo K.]

>Grin. "I'll leave it to you then."
>Let's watch the fun!

[Nekomata-chan]

>Grin. "I'll leave it to you then."
>Let's watch the fun!

>Kouga nods and walks back inside, "Hey, Futo, got a question for you."

>Futo immediately snaps her head to look at him, smiling, "Yeah, sure, any question you want to fire, boom, hit it and I'll answer it correctly, promise!"
>Kouga laughs, "Aha, yeah... listen, I-"
>Futo cuts him off, leaning almost an inch away from his face, "You know what's funny? I know that I won that quiz game. I did, didn't I? Agree with me, I did, right?"
>Kouga looks her right back in the eye with a sheepish grin, "Uh... I... can't say for sure until I look at the scoreboard, but listen, there's something that I-"
>Futo grabs a book and holds it up. On the page she's on, it reads: Miko: 100 pts - Futo: 0 pts.
>Sighing, Kouga looks at her, "Surely that only counts as winning in a 'let's-not-score-any-points' game..."

>Futo doesn't actually seem to be letting Kouga say what he needed to...

[Hanzo K.]

>Since he's our shikigami, we can give him orders mentally too. Maybe.
>'Kouga, can you hear me? I'm trying something out, I think I can give orders this way too. Try being more direct and forceful.'
