> "I said I had no idea."
> You try looking above the sunflowers, but you can't even see the ground from this view; the sunflowers are too thick.

> Look around. If it looks like we can find her, uh, within the next hour, then say "Yeah, let's look for her!"
> Otherwise, say, "Uh... we can look later. Where d'ya want to go next, Mokou?"

> You take a look around. The sunflower field is pretty big, but it shouldn't take that long to find her.
> "Okay, then." Mokou starts trudging past the sunflowers, hands in pockets. "I think there are a few clear spots in this field, I'll see if I can find her in any of those."

Split up, but try to stay close enough that we can hear Mokou.

> You head off in a different direction from Mokou, but stay close enough that you can hear her footsteps trudging through the grass.
> There are still a few sunflowers with their dials turned towards you.
> You go on through the sunflowers, picking up sunflower seeds here and there.

> You float amongst the sunflowers, humming. It's a pleasant day.
> There's a pleasant breeze. Something smells good, a little further out into the field; the wind is blowing it out from there, you think.

Go towards the good smell.

"Ohhh, smell that Mokou?"

Go towards the good smell.

"Ohhh, smell that Mokou?"

> You see Mokou's head appear above the flowers briefly as she jumps up.
> "Yup."
> You start flying towards the smell. Looks like it's taking you right to the center of the field.

> Follow our nose! ~~Become a toucan!~~

> ~~What are toucans?~~
> You follow the smell across the sunflower field, flying and flying until the smell becomes almost overwhelming.
> As you get closer to it, you notice that there seems to be a break in the sunflowers. You also feel a little sleepy, but the flowers smell really good. You still hear Mokou jogging behind you, and the rustling of the sunflowers she pushes out of the way.

Push on!

Push on!

> You continue on until the sunflowers recede into a small clearing.
> The sweet scent is overwhelming here, and you see what instead of sunflowers, there are small lavender bulbs sprouting from the ground. They make popping sounds every now and then, releasing white clouds of spores into the air and making you feel extremely drowsy. Laying amongst them is what appears to be a large bundle of dark red, plaid fabric. A large, light pink flower sprouts nearby, shading the fabric pile from the sun.
> You hear a thud behind you.

"Moku..at least fall asleep on the blanket." try to drag her to the blanket.

> You consider dragging her over to the blanket, but decide against it.

> You then try poking her, but that doesn't work either.
> You take it a step further and shake her. She's out like a light.

>Run over to the blanket and grab it.

> Mokou's probably heavier than you. You'll have to bring the blanket to her.
> You head back over to the blanket and go to pick it up, only to be met with a surprising amount of resistance. It feels like it's attached to something much heavier.
> You hear a grunt coming from beneath the folds of fabric, and then silence.
> You're going to have to hurry with this, the spores are really starting to get to you...

> You slap yourself across the face, but that's not really going to accomplish anything.
> You try moving the fabric around to see what's going on. There's just so much of it.
> You eventually move enough away to catch a glimpse of a single arm, bent around a head of flowing, dark green hair. This fabric isn't a blanket, it's a woman's dress. Her eyes are closed, and a bit of hair is caught between her lips. Her breathing is slow and steady, with the small spores settled on her like a dusting of snow.
> Unless she's a very good actress, she's fast asleep.

>"Mokou! Hey, Mokou, wake up!"

> You get the feeling that it'd be better to leave now.
> You leave the woman and head back over to Mokou. She doesn't have any spores on her. You try lifting her off the ground, but she's so heavy. You don't think you'll be able to pick her up.
> Mokou rubs her eyes and yawns. Her eyes are still drooping when she notices the spores.
> "Oh, ergh...whoops, fell asleep."
