>"Huh." Turn to Suwako. "So, yeah. We'll be back before you know it."
> Let's start making our way outside. "So, we might have to whack someone a few times. That umbrella of yours any good at that?"

> Suwako ribbits at you.
> You and the karakasa leave Sanae's room and start back the way you came.
> The karakasa's smile falters. "I guess so, but I wouldn't want to hit someone that would make my umbrella break."

>"You can probably get a good kick out of those geta, at least."
>Have a look at the sky, and note the details about all the oddities up there.

> "Oh, yeah."
> Once the two of you are outside, you look up at the sky.
> The crack in the sky hasn't changed, except now that you actually look at it, the sky along it is darker than the rest. You suppose that blue would still be a passable color for the sky, but you can't ignore the other colors up there. The colors are in the clouds and bleed into the sky a little. You can see all the stars, but not the moon. If you may digress, it should be a full moon in two days. Tonight it should be visible.
> The water bubbles hang in place. You think they're the only things that aren't moving in the sky: everything else is following the celestial clock: the sun has shifted across the sky as usual, and so on.

> "Well, good thing you've got that umbrella with you. Or, uh, you've got your you with you." Karakasa are weird.
> "So, yeah, it's gonna get wet." Get ready to hit the sky.

> No. You'll have to fly higher to get to them.
> The karakasa purses her lips. "Since the shrine opened. You're the one dressed like an alien. What is that?"

> "Oh." The karakasa twirls her umbrella. "I've only been to Eientei a few times."
> You fly to the nearest water bubble. It's huge. You could easily fit three Kourindous in here. The water is clear as glass and you can see to the other side.

> You utter a silent thanks to Kourin and back away from the flow. The stream seems to be slowing down. It might just be taking it a while to stop.
> You float to another bubble and take a good long look at its contents. There seem to be some fish inside.
> One of those slippery-looking grey fish you saw in Koishi's book--a dolphin, you think--practically flies to the edge of the bubble and gives you a kiss.
