>Shiki: "And what gives you the right to decide this?"
>"...Not that I don't want to answer your question, but I'd rather save the questions for when we meet. Also, what happened to your refusal to respond to my snark?"

>"Huh?"
>Suika: "Well, I know you're telling us to fix this gap problem but then you're telling us you're not going to let Yukari help us, so I say you're just a jerk. And a coward, since you won't show your face."
>Drink.
>"And don't give me this crap about taking things away to test us. What the hell good's a test if you have to weaken someone for it? It wouldn't mean a thing! I wouldn't want to fight someone who's under a handicap; where's the fun in beating someone who can't give it everything they've got?"

>Patchouli shakes her head. "That's not of much use. The book says I need to know the name of the world you wish to go to."

>Reimu: "And we can't go through these gaps or send anything else through. We've seen what happenes if you try; it all keeps going as if there isn't a gap there at all."
>Shiki: "Hmm... well, there are a few options at the moment. As was recently mentioned, Kanako and Suwako brought their shrine here from the outside world. That may not be the same thing as travel between worlds like we're talking about, but she may still be able to assist us. There's also the issue of this 'Rathi Overlay', which may very well be what's causing these gaps to appear in the first place. It may be a good idea to find someone who knows more about it. Eirin, perhaps. We were going to ask her about travel to other worlds anyways, I believe. Heida no Akyu mayalso be worth a visit; with her flawless memory and extensive records, she may have some pieces of useful information."
>Koishi: "Or we could find that voice."
>Reimu: "Yeah, but we kind of don't know where to look, and even when we did have a clue, it didn't really work."
>Suika: "Maybe I should just gather jerks here."
>Reimu: "Yeah, I don't think that'll work, either. So it sounds like our best options at the moment are Kanako, Eirin, and Akyu."
>Shiki: "Let us speak with Eirin first."
>Reimu: "Works for me."
>Yuyuko: "Gap, please."

>You enter the gap, and end up at the front of Eientei. As usual, it's pretty quiet and grassy out here. Around the clearing are bamboo trees. I must try to break this beige prose thing I've got going on.

>Deschampsia Doggy: We probably know the way by now. So lead the way!

>You remember the directions and walk through the hallway. You eventually find yourself at where you think Eirin's office should be and open a door to your left.
>You find Eirin sitting at her desk and Yorihime in a nearby chair. Eirin looks up and says "Hello. I suppose you have something new to tell me?"
