(Shiki)Eiki Quest the 1st - Text Adventure of the Demonic Eye

[Hello Purvis]

>Indignation: "That is good to hear. I admit, I was a little concerned... Um, have you heard anything about being that could do such a thing?"
>Skink Trainer: "And about that brunch..."

[Blitzer]

>Indignation: "That is good to hear. I admit, I was a little concerned... Um, have you heard anything about being that could do such a thing?"

>"I haven't heard of anyone that could do such a thing, either."

>Skink Trainer: "And about that brunch..."

>"No, you're not late for brunch. Do you want to come in?"

[Hello Purvis]

>Psychopomp: "I appreciate the off-"
>Frog Director: "You know it!"
>Walk inside.

[Blitzer]

>Psychopomp: "I appreciate the off-"
>Frog Director: "You know it!"

>You get a vague feeling of being called a psychopomp. You aren't a psychopomp.
>"Okay, then follow me."

>Walk inside.

>You walk inside. You follow Yuyuko to the dining room, but this parser is too lazy to describe it.

[Hello Purvis]

>Examine Dining Room >=|

[Blitzer]

>Examine Dining Room >=|

>You observe the dining room. There is a really long table with set utensils. Aside from you, Yuyuko, and the red-white, the room is completely empty.

[Hello Purvis]

>Have a seat!
>Shiki: "Have you heard much of anything unusual, lately? Part of the reason we've come is we're fairly sure the threat isn't from Gensokyo itself."
>Tortoise Tracker: "And you're totally sure Youmu's not been funny? Not even a little bit? Even when you molest her?"

[Blitzer]

>Have a seat!

>You have a seat. Easy.

>Shiki: "Have you heard much of anything unusual, lately? Part of the reason we've come is we're fairly sure the threat isn't from Gensokyo itself."

>"Nope, I haven't heard even a tiny bit of strangeness. At least, strangeness that isn't normal strangeness."

>Tortoise Tracker: "And you're totally sure Youmu's not been funny? Not even a little bit? Even when you molest her?"

>"What? I don't molest her! Not at all! Really! Trust me!"

[Hello Purvis]

>Shiki: Give Reimu a questioning look.
>Chelonian Chaser: "C'mon, we all know it, no use hiding it. Not even a little bit funny?"

[Blitzer]

>Shiki: Give Reimu a questioning look.

>You give Reimu a questioning look. She doesn't notice. She seems too busy interviewing/interrogating/intering Yuyuko.

>Chelonian Chaser: "C'mon, we all know it, no use hiding it. Not even a little bit funny?"

>"What? I don't molest Youmu at all! Never! I would never!"

[Hello Purvis]

>Eiki: "Reimu, maybe this isn't the best thing-?"
>Turtle Tamer: "No no, I'm onto something here. Yuyuko, you notice how you're focusing on that and ignoring what I actually asked? That's telling the real story here. Now, about what I actually asked..."

[Blitzer]

>Eiki: "Reimu, maybe this isn't the best thing-?"
>Turtle Tamer: "No no, I'm onto something here. Yuyuko, you notice how you're focusing on that and ignoring what I actually asked? That's telling the real story here. Now, about what I actually asked..."

>You're getting tired of being ignored.
>"I would not! I wouldn't! I-uhh..."
>She stops. Maybe she ran out of synonyms for "I would not" or "No."

[Hello Purvis]

>Anti-Stella: "Ah, don't worry about it. It's probably really cute. But come on, the real question?"
>The Decider: Worry at the ends of the tablecloth a bit. We're getting nowhere.

[Blitzer]

>Anti-Stella: "Ah, don't worry about it. It's probably really cute. But come on, the real question?"

>"Ah...uhh..."
>She breathes in, breathes out. Breath in, breath out. Breath in, breath out.
>"Okay. What were you asking, Reimu?"

>The Decider: Worry at the ends of the tablecloth a bit. We're getting nowhere.

>Not to mention that we may not get back in time until lunch break. Using Purvis time compression to shorten the time between events to cram over four thousand posts within a day of Maribel's life.
>You're getting somewhat irritated. Reimu and her goddamn antics.

[Hello Purvis]

>Rider of the Elder Tortoise" "Like I was saying, you've not seen anything even a little strange out of Youmu, like, at all?"
>SCOH: "Have the ghosts said anything unusual? Or been unusual themselves?"

[Blitzer]

>Rider of the Elder Tortoise: "Like I was saying, you've not seen anything even a little strange out of Youmu, like, at all?"

>"No, she's been acting normal. Very normal."

>SCOH: "Have the ghosts said anything unusual? Or been unusual themselves?"

>"Nope, they haven't said anything unusual at all."

(SCOH?)

[Hello Purvis]

>Turtleslinger: "Huh. That's never happened before."
>Ponder beating them both up, just in case.

>Shiki: "I suppose we'll have a nice brunch, at least."

[Blitzer]

>Turtleslinger: "Huh. That's never happened before."
>Ponder beating them both up, just in case.

>"You mean Youmu usually doesn't act normal?"

>Shiki: "I suppose we'll have a nice brunch, at least."

>"I am sorry I didn't have any info."

[Hello Purvis]

Shiki: Have a nice brunch, at least!
Bane of Seal Clubbers: Carefully weigh the pros and cons of beating up Youmu and Yuyuko, just in case.

[Blitzer]

Shiki: Have a nice brunch, at least!

>Yeah, let's try. But you are reminded that you have no food right now.

Bane of Seal Clubbers: Carefully weigh the pros and cons of beating up Youmu and Yuyuko, just in case.

>Pros: It would fulfill stage 1 of your normal "pick a direction" plan, even if they have nothing to do with the problem (or are even close).
>Cons: There's no point. But since when has that stopped you?

[Hello Purvis]

Shiki: "So, things have been well here, I hope?"
Maiden of the Seven Aspects: Wait for the food to arrive.

[Blitzer]

Shiki: "So, things have been well here, I hope?"

"Yes. Everything's been normal, and our status quo is good.

Maiden of the Seven Aspects: Wait for the food to arrive.

>You twiddle your thumbs. A servant of Yuyuko's eventually enters with the food, puts it down, look at Yuyuko as if she's weird, and walks away.

[Hello Purvis]

Shiki: "Do your servants give you those kinds of looks often?"
Buffer: Dig in!

[Blitzer]

Shiki: "Do your servants give you those kinds of looks often?"

>"No. I don't think so. I usually don't notice, but I do catch them looking at me that way occasionally."

Buffer: Dig in!

>The parser always considered Accordion Thieves better buffers.
>You dig in without looking at your food. Good stuff.
>You gain 3 adventures.

[Hello Purvis]

>Eiki: Examine the meal. Dine at a polite pace.
>Shell Surfer: "Don't you ever ask 'em about it?"

[Blitzer]

>Eiki: Examine the meal. Dine at a polite pace.

>You examine the meal. It's not much, just a bowl...of...rice.
>You dine at a polite pace.
>You gain 3 adventures.

>Shell Surfer: "Don't you ever ask 'em about it?"

>"No. I do try sometimes, but they always slip away when I try. It's the one time they won't listen to me as the ghost princess of Hakugyokurou."

[Blitzer]

>Yeah, I didn't want to have to do this, but...bump.

[Hello Purvis]

Hate when I forget about things. =[

>Maiden of the Seven Aspects: "Oh, that's easy! Give me five minutes alone with them, and they'll sing like birds."

[Blitzer]

Hate when I forget about things. =[

>Maiden of the Seven Aspects: "Oh, that's easy! Give me five minutes alone with them, and they'll sing like birds."

>Let a thread sit for a few days, it dies when it reaches the second page.
>"Go ahead and try, Reimu. I can't guarantee it'll help, though."

[E-Nazrin]

>Kyansticker: "Where is Youmu, if only out of curiosity?"
