> Oh yeah, that she isn't.
> Watch without cup of tea.

>You try to get your breath back, while watching the fight.
>Without having to fight one-handed and without her mobility as hobbled, Remilia is a much closer match for Youmu. She is still unable to take to the air, but even with her feet on the ground she is able to duck and weave around Youmu's offense effectively. While she could toss aside the Dream Cutlass and invoke Gungnir, she seems to have taken a liking to facing Youmu sword to sword. However, Youmu is far from helpless. Remilia is clearly stronger than she is, and about as fast, but Youmu's skill with the blade outstrips Remilia's greatly. Remilia is able to smash through Youmu's defenses with brute force, but it Youmu is just as often able to deflect it with an immaculately positioned sword that send Remilia's force wide. Were it not for the disorienting rainbow swath the Dream Cutlass leaves in its wake, it is likely that Youmu would have already disarmed her.
>A few minutes pass, and you are able to regain your breath, though you're still breathing a bit heavily. Sakuya has showed no signs of stirring, and is likely out for the time being. Remilia and Youmu have wounded each other a few times, though Youmu's early hits definitely tilt that particular scale in her favor. They fight close to the metal screen you put up, Youmu coming close to having her back to it."Patchouli!" Remilia shouts, while sending a wide sweep at Youmu. "What is that noise? Will you shut it up?"

> "Of course, one minute!"
> Panic slightly, wonder what the heck she's on about.
> Judge setting of the sun. If it's set far enough for Remilia to fight without a screen, remove the screen.
> "How's that?"
> If noise persists:
> "Please get rid of that Cutlass, I think that could be the issue."
> If noise persists:
> Panic.

>You panic slightly, because you have no idea what she's talking about. You don't hear anything except for the sound of the two of them fighting.
>You estimate it is about four minutes until the sun sets. You dare not remove the screen yet.
>"It's some weird ringing!" says Remilia, "Just find who's doing it and give them a good talking to! I'm trying to concentrate up here!"
>She seems to have selectively ignored your suggestion to drop the cutlass. And you definitely do not hear any kind of strange ringing.

>"I'm need it at the moment, Patchouli!" Remilia shouts back.
>You are starting to notice something odd in the air, though. You can't quite put your finger on what it is.

> try to wake Sakuya

> stop being naked

>You try to wake Sakuya, but to no avail. She is unconscious and likely will be staying that way until she rests up.
>You were not naked, just...highly underdressed. And you took care of that the moment Aya got that picture.

>Indeed she must.
>"Calling it now" encourages the Parser to weigh unfavorably in the future decisions so that not only does the call fail, it also actively had a role in making things worse. But you did not know, so do not fear for now.
>"Working on it!" says Remilia, with a fangy grin.

> Check Ruined Hat.

>You check the ruined hat again. It feels...strange. Though it's perfectly dry, there's a kind of warm slick sensation to it. If you didn't know any better about how unusual this item is, you would seriously begin to question your sanity.

>"Don't hear a thing," says Aya, as she positions another shot. "I guess the air feels a little tense. Isn't that to be expected for a tense fight like this?"
>As you are not on the roof, but rather on the side grounds with Sakuya, you have not problems whatsoever getting that hat off the roof.

>SOMETHING Jeff-related is going on. Wonder what may be happening with Yukari and Alice in the underground, since they are at the place most connected with Jeff.

>You're starting to suspect this is the case. You're starting to feel a sort of waxy texture in your mouth, as well. It's quite strange, and you can only guess at the cause.
>You wonder if Yukari, Alice, or Yuyuko would be able to determine anything unusual if it were happening around them.
>Remilia seems to be getting an upper hand in the fight, as she is forcing Youmu back against the metal screen and seems to be able to keep her from escaping.

>If you could catch her unawares, you might be able to do that. But of she saw you coming, she'd probably only end up humiliating you somehow.

>Wait a moment. Waxy? Feel the inside of your mouth with a hand, just to be sure. We've only been assuming that Jeff isn't evil, after all.

>You feel around inside your mouth. There doesn't seem to be anything there.

>...he sure SOUNDS evil. The timeline he came from being evil may not be his fault, but didn't he say he summoned Giygas? And he isn't exactly the most kind person you've ever met.

>He's certainly a jerk! It is possible he's not entirely sane. But he did some nice things that you kinda remember, like helping Mystia get out of debt, and helping Remilia get the Mansion back from Parsee. But he's done some not so nice things...

>Yeah exactly my point. I mean hell, all of the deeds he mentioned have been bad. He removed himself because it'd help. Why are we trusting him for god's sake.

>Perhaps it is because he is stuck in a living hell? Or just because it seems like you're the only person who knows him and can do anything about it? Maybe Marisa's just been rubbing off on you.

> @ youmu: "You were adopted, Yuyuko never loved you, and Santa is dead because of YOU!"

> Cover our NO-NO ZONE, we don't want any non-exsistant weirdos doing THINGS to us!

>You shout some unpleasant things at Youmu, but she does not seem to be listening to you.
>You wonder if that would actually stop him...

>All hail porky.
>Available spellcards, and their effects. Specifically how accurate they are at hitting a lone target.

>Who the what now.
>Metal Sign: Metal Fatigue
>A spell to wear at and expand metal.
>Earth Sign: Rage Trilithon High Level
>Summons landslide of rocks that changes direction unpredictably. Do not use this near delicate things, or neglect your own safty.
>Earth Sign: Rage Trilithon High Level would probably be more likely to hit that sort of target.

>"You're gonna break poor Yuyuko's heart, you know that?" says Remilia, as she closes in on Youmu. Youmu's response is to suddenly turn her back to Remilia and level a fierce kick at the metal screen. It creaks alarmingly and falls backward. It is just barely able to hold onto the the roof, but falls back so far that it no longer shields Remilia at all. She stumbles back, crying out in pain as steam rises from her flesh.
