Reimu Quest

[FinnKaenbyou]

>In hindsight, would it have been possible for us to just put the entire water bubble in our sleeve? Because that might have made things a lot easier.

[O4rfish]

Yes, but there is the issue of carrying all of our stuff without it getting wet. We didn't get that wicker basket after all.

[FinnKaenbyou]

I figured since the bubble floated on its own it might have worked =[

[Kilgamayan]

> Better yet , while angling our sleeve toward the pond, reach into it an grab the dolphin, then fling it out into the pond. Use the same hand to catch Kogasa from also falling in if necessary.

[日巫子]

> Is Suwako in the pond right now?

> She's at the Kochiya Shrine with Sanae right now.

>Regardless of whether she is: "Here's a pond, go!"
>Angle sleeve toward the pond

> Better yet , while angling our sleeve toward the pond, reach into it an grab the dolphin, then fling it out into the pond. Use the same hand to catch Kogasa from also falling in if necessary.

> You point your sleeve at the pond, and Kogasa and the dolphin come sliding out seconds later.  You push out the dolphin and catch Kogasa by the collar before she can fall into the water, too..
> The dolphin swims in circles, chirping and surfacing every few seconds to spit water at you.  The commotion draws a handful of curious youkai over to the pond to see what's happening.

[Kilgamayan]

> Stuff Kogasa back in the sleeve before anyone notices her.

[日巫子]

> Stuff Kogasa back in the sleeve before anyone notices her.

> You shove Kogasa back into your sleeve as quickly as she came out with the dolphin.  A couple of tengu might have noticed because they're staring at you, but that could also be because of the dolphin.

[Kilgamayan]

> Is there a secluded area away from the pond where we can talk to our sleeve without being bothered?

[日巫子]

> Is there a secluded area away from the pond where we can talk to our sleeve without being bothered?

> No.  Not outside, at least.

[Hello Purvis]

>"Don't worry, it's just some fish I found. Nothing to see here."
>Make some effort to graze those water spits, if only out of habit.

[Kilgamayan]

> "I'll be back for it soon."
> Assuming no one tries to stop us, head down the mountain toward Sanae's shrine.
> Once we're out of earshot of the crowd but before we reach Sanae's shrine, raise a sleeve opening to near our mouth and lower our voice.
> "Sorry for the rough treatment. I didn't want anyone to see you."

[日巫子]

>"Don't worry, it's just some fish I found. Nothing to see here."
>Make some effort to graze those water spits, if only out of habit.

> Most of the youkai wander away, but a few linger near the pond at a safe distance.
> You graze the water spits and rack up mad points.  Yeah!

> "I'll be back for it soon."
> Assuming no one tries to stop us, head down the mountain toward Sanae's shrine.
> Once we're out of earshot of the crowd but before we reach Sanae's shrine, raise a sleeve opening to near our mouth and lower our voice.
> "Sorry for the rough treatment. I didn't want anyone to see you."

> None of the youkai are causing any trouble, so you leave and make your way back to the Kochiya Shrine.  When you're about halfway there, you whisper to Kogasa through your sleeve.  You see the top of her head and her eyes, peering over the fabric of your sleeve.
> "My umbrella's still in one piece, so it's fine.  I guess," Kogasa says.

> _

[Kilgamayan]

> Nod.
> "Okay. I'm gonna go ask Suwako if I can borrow Sanae and a tub. You should stay out of sight, but near the entrance to my sleeve. When she asks about how I'm gonna carry them around, I'll say that you're gonna help me. Once I say that, you can jump out. You'll get a surprised goddess and I'll get a demonstration that shows what I can carry. Sound good?"

[日巫子]

> Nod.

> You explain your plan to Kogasa.  When you're finished, you see her head bob up and down.  "Yeah.  Yeah, I got it."

> _

[Kilgamayan]

> "Good. Get yourself ready, we're going in."
> Continue on to the shrine.

[日巫子]

> "Good. Get yourself ready, we're going in."
> Continue on to the shrine.

> Kogasa nods and disappears back into your sleeve.
> You make the rest of the flight to the shrine.  Not much as changed in the short time you were gone.

> _

[Kilgamayan]

> Head inside and make for Sanae's room.

[日巫子]

> Head inside and make for Sanae's room.

> You enter the shrine and retrace your steps to Sanae's room.  You find that Suwako is still in there, using a fine tooth comb to brush Sanae's hair.  She stops when she notices you.
> "Ah, there you are."

> _

[Kilgamayan]

> "Here I am. Got a large favor to ask of you."

[日巫子]

> "Here I am. Got a large favor to ask of you."

> Suwako turns around from where she's crouched on the ground, and rests her arms on her knees.
> "What can I do for you?" she asks.

> _

[Kilgamayan]

> "I'd like to borrow a couple of things, in the interest of investigation. The main thing is, well, less a thing and more a person."
> Point at Sanae.
> "I'd like to take her with me, if possible. I promise she'll stay safe."

> Point at Sanae.
> "I'd like to take her with me, if possible. I promise she'll stay safe."

> Suwako chews her lip.  "That's all well and good if you're going to keep her safe, but exactly would you be taking her?  And for that matter, how?"

> _

[Kilgamayan]

> There's a word missing from the first question. Is Suwako asking about 'where' or 'why'?
> Gesture toward Sanae with one arm - preferably the arm with the sleeve Kogasa's head was poking out of earlier - while holding our other hand akimbo on our hip.
> "'How' isn't a problem. I have Kogasa to help me with that."

[FinnKaenbyou]

>"How's that accessory doing, by the way?"

> "'How' isn't a problem. I have Kogasa to help me with that."

> Where.
> You gesture towards Sanae, giving Kogasa the perfect opportunity.
> "Oh, is s--"
> "SURPRISE!"  Kogasa pops out of your sleeve and throws her arms in the air.  Suwako ribbits loudly and nearly knocks over Sanae's offerings.

>"How's that accessory doing, by the way?"

> "I--wha--I finished it already," Suwako stammers.  Kogasa giggles uncontrollably.

> _

[Kilgamayan]

> Wave the arm Kogasa came out of around a bit.
> "Perfect transportation system for Sleeping Beauties. You could even join her if you wanted."

[日巫子]

> Wave the arm Kogasa came out of around a bit.
> "Perfect transportation system for Sleeping Beauties. You could even join her if you wanted."

> Suwako frowns a bit at the offending sleeve.
> "She'll be fine with you.  I'll pass.  So, where exactly are you taking her again?"

> _

[Kilgamayan]

> "In general, I want her around if I run across more of those shiny shards, since she's related to them somehow. In particular, I'm headed in the direction of the Underground, and I'm wondering if it might be worth having Satori check on her."

> "Hm..."  Suwako leans her head from side to side.  "As long as you don't take her near the city while she's like that, then I'm fine with it."

> _

[Hello Purvis]

>"Why not? No one's going to know she's there unless I want them to know."
