> "Sh-she better not be! Or I'll show her!"
> Wait, a basement? "Hey, where do you think a basement might be? I didn't see anything like that!"

> "Sh-she better not be! Or I'll show her!"
> Wait, a basement? "Hey, where do you think a basement might be? I didn't see anything like that!"

> You don't think you want to see that kitsune around right now.
> Although the idea of a basement has never crossed your mind.  Rumia nods.
> "Houses have basements, under the house."

[Sect]

> "Oh."

> "... Uh... so how do we get there, then?"
> Start looking around for a basement!

[日巫子]

> "Oh."
> ...
> "... Uh... so how do we get there, then?"
> Start looking around for a basement!

> That should be obvious.
> Rumia's smile wavers.  "Dunno."
> You take a look around.  You don't see any obvious openings leading into a basement, unless there's a trap door hidden somewhere.

[Sect]

> Hm... search for trap doors! Pound our feet while going around until we hear something suspicious!

[日巫子]

> Hm... search for trap doors! Pound our feet while going around until we hear something suspicious!

> You wander around the courtyard, stomping on the ground every few steps to see if you can find anything.  You don't have any luck so far, and some faeries in the grass nearby are laughing at you.
> A few mock your movements, and soon there's about a dozen or so faeries stomping on the concrete.  A gaggle of faeries have poked their heads out the door to see what's going on.
> Kouyoshi and Rumia, in the meantime, look like they have no idea what's going on.

[Sect]

> Blush, and rush inside to look for trap doors!

[日巫子]

> Blush, and rush inside to look for trap doors!

> How embarrassing.
> You run inside, past the loud giggles of the faeries, and nearly run into some faeries standing by the door.  They're all congested in one part of the hallway for some reason, chattering loudly as usual and squealing over something.  You think you'd still be able to look under the tatami mats or something.

[Sect]

> Frown, and go back to those fairies. "Hey, what're you giggling over?" Are they torturing poor Hourai again?

[Sect]

> Oh, and put one of those substitution wards Kouyoshi showed us on a fairy. We don't want to get shanked.

> "Heheheh, we found something really cool over here," one of the faeries calls out.

> Oh, and put one of those substitution wards Kouyoshi showed us on a fairy. We don't want to get shanked.

> You'd like to, but you're interrupted by someone smacking you in the back of the head.  Owwww...
