> "No, of course not. I appreciate your concern, I just think that you're worrying a bit too much, even if you do mean well."
> Examine room again
> "By the way, do you happen to have some idea what in here might have triggered my attack?"

>"I worry exactly enough, I'll have you know! It's a harsh, dangerous world out there. And you with your health and your magic! Oy, it keeps us up at dawn! And that attack? Just your health acting up in the weather, I'd imagine. Oh, you don't know how bad you have it some times, Patchouli!
>Looking about the room, you can see several tasteful tapestries, artworks, and statues. There's a lot of crimson in here.

>"She may be a thief, but she's one sexy thief. For that matter, she's offered to help me out with something very difficult.

>"That she is, that she is," Remilia nods, "You must be careful around her! She'll lead you down a bad path, mark my words! But yes, be a ray of sunshine for her, just like you are for all of us. We'll be waiting here for news."
>You current condition is: A bit sore about the chest, but otherwise fine.

Oh Patchouli, we'd never pry into your private things like that, like you and that little demon of yours. You're too good for that one, I have to say, but it's not my place to tell you what to do with yourself. But I worry for you, Patchouli."

>You could probably get away with it. She's probably the person in the world least likely to laugh, anyways.
>"You be a good girl, Patchouli," says Remilia. "We worry about you, you know that. Talk with us some more later, rather than having your nose in the books all the time!"
>"Flandre? Well, I won't lie, that Marisa sorted her out better than I ever could. It's why I turn a blind eye to all the things she steals! It would break little Flan's heart if I turned her away."

Shall we talk this evening, especially if the weather refuses to fix itself? I wouldn't want to bring you out in the sun, but it would help to have you along during the time you shine, Remi."

> Bow goodbye to Remilia, go visit Flandre.

>You didn't tell me nothin'.
>You shake your first at the ceiling and Mukyu. Remilia just ruffles your hair. "It's good to see the fire back in you, I worry so much sometimes."
>You extricate yourself from Remilia before she can guilt you any further.
>You make your way back down to the foyer, then enter the basement door.
>The stairway down to the basement spirals downward, making a complete circle before ending in another door. You open that door and enter Flandre's room.
>It is pleasantly cool down here, as basements tend to be. The once-gloomy stone blocks have been painted a pastel pink, and the floor has been carpeted. Several toys are scattered about, most of them fairly new and including a sizable number of legos. Flandre sits on the edge of her bed, reading a very thick book while kicking her feet in the air idly. She doesn't seem to have noticed you yet.

There are people in this world who enjoy being alone. But there isn't a single person who can bear solitude.

>You enter and prepare to give Flandre the pen and notebook when she looks over and notices you. "Patch-Patch!" she cries. Before you can do much else, Flandre has leaped from the bed and firmly enfolded your torso in a hug. "How are you Patch-Patch?" She continues, "This book you gave me to read is really great! Shiva is such a cool guy! He mediates all the time and got married and isn't afraid of anything! I'm gonna be just like him when I grow up! He's way better that stinky old Surtr that Sakuya likes. Surtr sucks!"
>Unfortunately, Flandre's hugging and wave of verbiage quite neatly derails the rest of your plan

>\(^o^)/

>Yay hugs!

>Drink the hot sauce you got from Tenshi.

>You never took that hot sauce. You took the label.
>You vow to find the Akis and figure out what's what.
>You Mukyu. Flandre giggles in the midst of her snuggling.

>Tickle Flandre's feet before you do anything else stupid.

>You are not presently in a position to do this.

>You ain't got the stones, meatbag.
>You attempt to headbutt Flandre. Unfortunately, whilst shortness is one of your virtues, Flandre has you beaten in that department. And given that she is firmly attached to you at the moment, you cannot get the space needed to equalize that advantage.
>"And Shiva has arms all over the place! It's so cool! He can do all kinds of things with them! And Sati trtied to marry him and she couldn't so she set herself on fire and then was reborn as Parvati and he married her and it's sooooo romantic because he wasn't supposed to but he did!"

>Such artifacts are legendary indeed. You have no idea where you might find one that would treat your specific problems.

>Slap yourself for never grabbing the actual hot sauce.

>Depart for the kitchen in search of hot sauce.

>"You're welcome, Patch-Patch!" says Flandre, "Bring me a present when you're done!"
>You leave the basement and head into the kitchen. After the plesantly cool basement, the wave of heat from the kitchen is almost like a walking into a wall. Dozens of maids rush to and fro, preparing the upcoming meal. There are numerous ranges and ovens, most of them in use. The smell of scores of ingredients battle for your nose's attention. Plates clatter, voices blend together into in loud babble, and pans sizzle and pop on their stove. In the middle of all this chaos is Sakuya, barking orders to the maids. She quickly notices you and frowns. "If you wish for something, you need only have asked rather than come here. If you need a cup of tea or something to eat, I will gladly prepare them for you myself."

>Do the Mario!

>You swing your arms from side to side, but can't remember the rest.

>Sakuya gives you a look. Then she shouts an order to one of the more idle maids. A moment later, you are presented with a bottle of This Sauce Will Kill You For Reals.
>You leave, and trek back to town; passing Lyrica who is still practicing away.
>The Tavern is empty, except for Tenshi and Marisa; the latter lounging in a booth. "Hey!" says Tenshi as you come in, "I didn't see Yuka at all!"
