>lead marisa to eintei
>Turn and wink at her occasionally

>Along the way, also explain the navigation method for the forest for bonus brownie points
>do not masturbate to Abs

> Engage in light small-talk with Marisa on the way there.
> Try not to swoon over her.
> Arrive at Eientei.

>You lead Marisa to Eientei, making small talk and periodically giving her a wink. You are able to do a fairly good job of not doing anything more foolish than letting your eyes linger longer than is polite from time to time, but you don't think she noticed. She is suitably impressed by the proper method of navigating through the bamboo forest, saying that she'd just use Master Spark to leave navigational aids when she got lost.
>You arrive at Eientei and lead Marisa inside. Upon seeing the fan device, Marisa grins, sets her book and sandwich aside and makes a bee-line for it. The rabbits clear out of the way quickly, and watch as she throws her strength against it. At first, the crank refuses to budge. Marisa digs her heels into the ground, gritting her teeth and practically quivering from the effort. Slowly, the crank begins to turn, adding tension to a spring that powers the whole thing. Grunting with exertion,  she slowly and surely winds the fan up. Then she lets it go, and the spring starts to unwind, turning the flywheel and sending a most delicious breeze through the already pleasantly cool courtyard.
>Marisa then goes to have a seat at one of the tables; and quite frankly you need a sit down yourself after that show. Reisen quietly presents you with a small metal container.
>You Obtain: Essence of Bamboo Flower.
>Kaguya sets to paying Cirno and Lunasa, then sends them on her way.

>You intercept the band, and pose your question to Cirno. "What, no!" says Cirno. "Who wants to go up there? It's probably on fire or something!"

>Ask Lunasa what she is planning to do now

>"Find a new gig," she says simply.

> Ponder whether you should look for Eirin or not.

>You've managed to avoid her so far. Some schools of thought would consider this a victory. Other schools of thought wouldn't give accreditation to the first school.

> Probably not. Let's head over to the rocket building site.

>You decide not to press your luck, and instead head toward the Kappa town.
>You can see the rocket taking shape beside Nitori's warehouse. It's certainly not as comfortable-looking as the one you designed, nor nearly as stylish. But she is working faster than you are, and without nearly so much magic, so such things can be excused. It is more or less a metallic pyramid set atop a huge, suspiciously familiar-looking barrel. It certainly wouldn't have as much power as your rocket, either, but the trip won't be quite so long. Overall, it's...acceptable-looking for a rush job, but the lack of style is a little irksome. A few kappa are hanging about, watching the construction.

>You approach Nitori, who is handing an end table up to Utsuho, who is in the rocket itself. "Oh," she says in response to your question, "We're basically done. Just putting on the little nice touches now." You can hear the hope in her voice as she asks, "Did you change your mind?"

"We could tie her up, I guess," says Momiji, frowning. "But why would you do that? Didn't she say she wanted to do this?"
