Kiku-chan:

>"Seems so..."
>Sigh.
>"Daiko might be there, but digging through the books on the new library though..."

Niji-chan:

>Smile a bit.

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>Laugh a bit.

[Tashi]

Kiku-chan:

>"Seems so..."
>Sigh.
>"Daiko might be there, but digging through the books on the new library though..."

Niji-chan:

>Smile a bit.

> Sakuya remains silent.

> Marisa nods.
> "So, about our body change..." Alice starts.

Daiko:

>Laugh a bit.

> You laugh a bit, prompting Kyouko to hit you again. "Baka..."

[Monarda]

Kiku-chan:

>"Oh well... let's go back now."
>Nod and head back.

Niji-chan:

>"Hm..."

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>"Geez, don't just resort to hitting me. Come up with something better. Like just accepting defeat."

[Tashi]

Kiku-chan:

>"Oh well... let's go back now."
>Nod and head back.

> Sakuya nods too and follows you.
> You don't know why, but you think you feel bad looks upon you.

Niji-chan:

>"Hm..."

> "I don't have a clue of what happened. Neither how to solve it."
> "We can do the same process and see what happens."
> Marisa frowns. "And what if we don't return to our bodies, but instead we end in different ones? What if we end in Shanghai or Hourai's bodies? And viceversa?"
> "Oh..."

Daiko:

>"Geez, don't just resort to hitting me. Come up with something better. Like just accepting defeat."

> "Something better? Like this?" She approaches and gives you a quick kiss in the cheek. "... Blame me, hehe."

[Monarda]

Niji-chan:

>"Have everyone go away to a safe distance then."

Kiku-chan:

>"Hm ?"
>Look around.

[Tashi]

Niji-chan:

>"Have everyone go away to a safe distance then."

> "Shanghai and Hourai exchanged bodies too, so they have to be there." Marisa replies.
> The dolls nod.

Kiku-chan:

>"Hm ?"
>Look around.

> You look around... Nothing seems to be bad.
> "People are looking at us." Sakuya says without looking at you.
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>"H-Hey. Don't be risky like that."

[Monarda]

Niji-chan:

>"Oh right, they did."
>Nod, then pet 'Hourai'.

Kiku-chan:

>"Yeah... i feel the ill feeling..."

[Tashi]

Daiko:

>"H-Hey. Don't be risky like that."

> "If there are consequences for liking you... then so be it."

Niji-chan:

>"Oh right, they did."
>Nod, then pet 'Hourai'.

> You pet Hourai, who in reality is Shanghai.
> Shanghai look as you pet Hourai. She has a mad expression. "Rai!" She says.
> "Shang!" Hourai looks at Shanghai.
> "Rai raihourai." Shanghai crosses of arms.

Kiku-chan:

>"Yeah... i feel the ill feeling..."

> "Some villagers were looking at us with a not-so-friendly look." Sakuya adds.

> (White) "There, there... Like thaaat... Come heeere..."
> _

[Monarda]

Kiku-chan:

>"Hmmm..."

Niji-chan:

>"Oh, you want me to pet Shanghai's body ?"
>Pet 'Shanghai'.

[Tashi]

Kiku-chan:

>"Hmmm..."

> Sakuya only continues.

Niji-chan:

>"Oh, you want me to pet Shanghai's body ?"
>Pet 'Shanghai'.

> You pet Shanghai, who is Hourai.
> "Rai!" She backs off, blushing.
> Hourai giggles.
> "It's hard to see Hourai being so... gentle... while Shanghai so... well, so Hourai."
> _

[Monarda]

Kiku-chan:

>Follow.

Niji-chan:

>"Yeah, Hourai is one of a kind in attitude."

[Tashi]

Kiku-chan:

>Follow.

> You follow.

Niji-chan:

>"Yeah, Hourai is one of a kind in attitude."

> "Rairairai!" Shanghai says.
> "S-Shang?"
> "Rai!"
> Marisa looks down.
> "Well... she has a point." Alice shrugs.
> Kokoro and Marry look at each other.
> _

[Monarda]

Niji-chan:

>"U-Uhm... what did she say ?"

[Tashi]

Niji-chan:

>"U-Uhm... what did she say ?"

> "Hourai said that she is like that because Shanghai and Alice need someone strong." Alice replies.
> "How you know what she says?" Marry asks.
> "You slowly start to understand them, ze~."
> Marisa only keeps looking down.
> _

[Monarda]

Niji-chan:

>"But i don't think Miss Alice is weak, i think she is strong too, strength isn't about acting high and mighty... "

[Tashi]

Niji-chan:

>"But i don't think Miss Alice is weak, i think she is strong too, strength isn't about acting high and mighty... "

> "Alice's strong, yes, but... it's true that emotionally she can't stand so much things."
> "C-Can we change the subject?" Marisa stutters.
> _

[Monarda]

Niji-chan:

>"Well that doesn't mean that she has to act like Hourai, it's silly to think strong people don't accept care and pettings."

[Tashi]

Niji-chan:

>"Well that doesn't mean that she has to act like Hourai, it's silly to think strong people don't accept care and pettings."

> "Rai?!" Shanghai looks at you, frowning. "Rai rai!"
> "She asked if you are calling her silly."
> _

[Monarda]

Niji-chan:

>"Well... does she think that to be strong you have to act high and mighty, along with refusing to take part in stuff like pats like Shanghai does ? If so then yes, because that isn't even close to what being strong truly is."

[Tashi]

Niji-chan:

>"Well... does she think that to be strong you have to act high and mighty, along with refusing to take part in stuff like pats like Shanghai does ? If so then yes, because that isn't even close to what being strong truly is."

> "Rai houra rai, Hourai rairairai Rai! Hourai... hou hou... ... Rai! Rairairai!"
> "She says: "I'm not like that, but I need to be strong to prevent anyone from coming and annoy Alice. There's people that might not understand with the soft words of Alice and Shanghai"." Kokoro says.
> "Y-You understand her?" Marry asks.
> "It's easy." Kokoro shrugs.
> _

[Monarda]

Niji-chan:

>"Well Daiko-kun is still gentle just like Miss Alice, but he is also very strong and will care for all of us when the time is right."
>Nod.
>"You don't need to act tough, that alone won't help you stand up against someone up to no good."

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>Sigh.
>"You're really being reckless. Or... honest with yourself, I guess..."

[Tashi]

Niji-chan:

>"Well Daiko-kun is still gentle just like Miss Alice, but he is also very strong and will care for all of us when the time is right."
>Nod.
>"You don't need to act tough, that alone won't help you stand up against someone up to no good."

> "..." Shanghai remains silent.
> "..." Marisa giggles. "Hourai likes when I care her... it's only that it embarrasses her."
> "RAI!" Shanghai blushes, looking away.

Daiko:

>Sigh.
>"You're really being reckless. Or... honest with yourself, I guess..."

> Kyouko looks away. "... I'm actually containing myself from hugging you..." She pouts.
> _

[Monarda]

Niji-chan:

>"Daww..."
>Smile and hug 'Shanghai'.

[Tashi]

Niji-chan:

>"Daww..."
>Smile and hug 'Shanghai'.

> "You hug Shanghai.
> "RAIRAIRAI!" She struggles, moving her arms and legs everywhere. "RAAAI!"
> Marisa giggles.
> _

[Neovereign]

Daiko:

>Hug her.
>"People need affection some times. Hugs are the best, since your relation with them doesn't matter."
>Hug a bit tighter.
>"It gives people a chance to calm down, or let out their emotions. It can be a simple greeting, or a goodbye."

[Tashi]

Daiko:

>Hug her.
>"People need affection some times. Hugs are the best, since your relation with them doesn't matter."
>Hug a bit tighter.
>"It gives people a chance to calm down, or let out their emotions. It can be a simple greeting, or a goodbye."

> You hug Kyouko, and she reciprocates.
> "..." Kyouko looks at you. She's pouting "harder". "But I don't want a greeting or a goodbyeee..."
