Patchy Quest: A Z-Machine Adventure

[Hello Purvis]

>"Nevermind." Clueless git...
>start drinking lemonade, look around at bar patrons
>fawfulize

>"Okay~"
>Aside from Shou, there is really no one else of particular interest here. Just a couple of farmer types.
>You contemplate metaphors and similes in dimensions you seldom contemplate.

>Have summonings of Fawful for grantings of powers and fury!
>Have sipping of the lemonade, praying that it does not taste more sour than a grape unobtainable by a fox who has rabies!

>Even if you did know how to summon such a being, would you want to be responsible for unleashing it upon Gensokyo?
>You sip the lemonade, and wash away the array of terrible tastes that had been lingering in your month. You needed this badly.
>Your current condition is: Refreshed.

[E-Nazrin]

>relax for the moment and finish your lemonade
>peek on what Shou's up to

[Hello Purvis]

>relax for the moment and finish your lemonade
>peek on what Shou's up to

>You take a load off and enjoy your beverage.
>It seems like Shou is writing something. Or sketching. You can't tell for sure.

[Janitor Morgan]

> After finishing lemonade, go up to Shou and say hello

[theshirn]

> And by go to I mean sneak up on and Mukyu in her ear

[Hello Purvis]

> After finishing lemonade, go up to Shou and say hello

> And by go to I mean sneak up on and Mukyu in her ear

>Shou is quite enraptured with her work. You are able to creep up on her successfully, and then... "GYAH!"
>She jumps and very nearly upsets her table. Giving you a look somewhere between her prior surprise and her current irritation, she says, "Agh! What do you want?!"

[Seian Verian]

>"Oh, I apologize. I was just curious as to what you were working on."

[theshirn]

> Look at what Shou is working on, apply lemonade if necessary

[Hello Purvis]

>"Oh, I apologize. I was just curious as to what you were working on."

> Look at what Shou is working on, apply lemonade if necessary

>"Just working out the logicists of a new temple. Um, I'm Shou. And you are?"
>The paper has a rough sketch of a temple-like building, with some estimates of costs off to the side.

>_

[Seian Verian]

>"My name is Patchouli Knowledge."
>"This may seem like a rather sudden question, but would you happen to have any idea as to the whereabouts of Keine Kamishirasawa?"

[Fightest]

> Comment on the economic inefficiency of Shou's current estimations and suggest outsourcing and holistic project management to halve expenditure, sketching a rough performance outline for the first two months. Also offer her some lemonade.

[Hello Purvis]

>"My name is Patchouli Knowledge."
>"This may seem like a rather sudden question, but would you happen to have any idea as to the whereabouts of Keine Kamishirasawa?"

>"Oh, you're that witch," says Shou; you can hear just the slightest hint of a pause before she mentions your profession. "It's a pleasure to meet you. And Miss Kamishirasawa? I think she left for somewhere? She mentioned something about a trip while she was at the store."

> Comment on the economic inefficiency of Shou's current estimations and suggest outsourcing and holistic project management to halve expenditure, sketching a rough performance outline for the first two months. Also offer her some lemonade.

>She doesn't seem to have any idea what you said, and nor do you. You also have nothing to sketch with. "I've got a drink, thank you," she says in response to your offer.

[E-Nazrin]

>"Damn this heat."
>down more lemonade and grumble

[UncertainJakutten]

>Umu...by the way, I've been searching for a man...all across Gensokyo. His name is Jeff K Anon, do you know him? Hmm...actually...

>Stand on table
>Ask the entire bar about Jeff K Anon

[theshirn]

> Ask about bees

[Toasty]

>Reccomend shou include a giant statue of byakuren in the temple.

[Rikter]

> Check Inventory
> Discard all objects beginning with the letter A or C

[Thata no Guykoro]

>Request hot sauce.

[Hello Purvis]

>"Damn this heat."
>down more lemonade and grumble

>"It does make the trip home look unappealing," Shou agrees.

>u?...by the way, I've been searching for a man...all across Gensokyo. His name is Jeff K Anon, do you know him? Hmm...actually...

>Stand on table
>Ask the entire bar about Jeff K Anon

>Shou shakes her head. "I don't know anyone like that."
>You stand on the table and pose your question, and get a round of generalized denials from the few other patrons. "Hey get off there!" Tenshi shouts.

> Ask about bees

> Shou gives an openhanded gesture. "I'm not much for that kind of thing. Isn't there an insect youkai around somewhere?"

>Reccomend shou include a giant statue of byakuren in the temple.

>She chuckles. "Giant statue? As in larger than the original? How would we fit it in there?"

> Check Inventory
> Discard all objects beginning with the letter A or C

>Your Inventory contains:
>Suspiciously Sleepwear-Like Witch Gown (worn as clothes)
>Witch Cap (Worn as Hat)
>Metal Sign: Metal Fatigue
>List of Anti-Humidity Spell components.
>Bottle of Frog Oil
>Glass of Lemonade (Unpaid)

>Request hot sauce.

>"Here you go!" Says Tenshi as she produces a Bottle of Avalonian Colon-Killer sauce and hands it to you.

>_

[Toasty]

>"Not that much bigger than the original, maybe a 12 or 10 foot statue would be sufficient"
>Take label off of hot sauce, be sure to remember what it is and who gave it to you.
>Review list of anti humidity spell componets

[Hello Purvis]

>"Not that much bigger than the original, maybe a 12 or 10 foot statue would be sufficient"
>Take label off of hot sauce, be sure to remember what it is and who gave it to you.
>Review list of anti humidity spell componets

>"Well, that'd hardly qualify as a giant statue of her in comparison, then." says Shou. "I don't think we could afford it, anyways."
>You gain: Bottle of Avalonian Colon-Killer Sauce Label
>The components are: One Sun Shard, One Essence of Bamboo Flower, One Blessing of the Great Destructor, and the Eighth Force.

[Kasu]

> Bid Shou farewell
> Sneak out through bathroom window without paying (if this fails, just pay)
> Head for the Bamboo Forest

[Seian Verian]

> Change mind and simply pay, you want to have SOME chance of not being compared to Marisa after all.

[Hello Purvis]

> Bid Shou farewell
> Sneak out through bathroom window without paying (if this fails, just pay)
> Head for the Bamboo Forest

> Change mind and simply pay, you want to have SOME chance of not being compared to Marisa after all.

>You bid Shou farewell. "I should be getting back to work anyways," she says. With a sigh, she gathers up her things and heads out the front door.
>You do not seem to have any money.

>_

[Zengar Zombolt]

>Da ze

[Toasty]

>Sneak out bathroom window. People wouldn't expect fast in-out trips from you anyways.

[Seian Verian]

> Explain situation to Tenshi
> "I apologize, I seem to lack money to pay for this lemonade with. Would there perhaps be some other way I could pay for this?"

[Hello Purvis]

>Da ze

>You Da ze. Oh god, that feels so gross! Ew!

>Sneak out bathroom window. People wouldn't expect fast in-out trips from you anyways.

>You check the bathroom, and find there is no window.

> Explain situation to Tenshi
> "I apologize, I seem to lack money to pay for this lemonade with. Would there perhaps be some other way I could pay for this?"

>Tenshi frowns. "Well...uh...got anything to trade? Or I guess you could deliver something up to the Moriya Shrine for me."

>_

[Thata no Guykoro]

>Say yes to the delivery.
>Attempt to find more hot sauce to combine with the hot sauce in your possession.

[Hello Purvis]

>Say yes to the delivery.
>Attempt to find more hot sauce to combine with the hot sauce in your possession.

>"Okay!" says Tenshi, "I need you to take that barrel up to the Moriya Shrine!" She points to a barrel standing on its end behind the bar, easily a foot taller than you are and wide enough you could fit inside it with another person.
>You don't see any more hot sauce.
