[Kilgamayan]

> "Good, good. How are you feeling about all this, then?"

[Hello Purvis]

> "Good, good. How are you feeling about all this, then?"

>"I'm still kind of angry with you," says Aya, giving a glance toward Nue, who simply waggles her fingers back toward Aya. "But really, I never expected anyone to go to these kinds of lengths. It'll definitely go into the gallery."

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "I must admit, that was an almost frightening amount of aggravation from you. I worry for you and for Miss Himekaidou if that is how you two feel about each other."

[Hello Purvis]

> "I must admit, that was an almost frightening amount of aggravation from you. I worry for you and for Miss Himekaidou if that is how you two feel about each other."

>"Oh she's going to get hers," says Aya. "Don't worry about that."

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "That is precisely about what I doworry. It is a sad state of affairs, from the perspective of an outside observer. No one should need to feel such loathing for another person."

>"I'll get it sorted out," says Aya.

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "I hope you do, for both of your sakes. I will pray for a peaceful resolution to your conflict."

[Hello Purvis]

> "I hope you do, for both of your sakes. I will pray for a peaceful resolution to your conflict."

>Aya merely nods.
>"So, did you find me a deliverer?"

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "I have. Where are the papers?"

[Hello Purvis]

> "I have. Where are the papers?"

>"Kourindou," says Aya. She reaches into a pocket and produces folded sheet of paper. "Here's the route. Don't worry about payments for now, it's all about letting people know I'm back."

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Take the paper.
> "All right, then."

[Hello Purvis]

> Take the paper.
> "All right, then."

>"Just tell whoever to show that to Rinnosuke," says Aya, "And he'll let her have the papers."

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Nod.
> "Understood."

[Hello Purvis]

> Nod.
> "Understood."

>"If it's alright," says Momiji, "What business do you have with Lord Tenma? I'm going to have to see him anyways, so if I could pass it on, it'd be no problem."

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "I wish to give him a list of names of people whom I would like to have permission to ascend the mountain to visit Bhava-Agra whenever they please. Within reason, of course."

[Hello Purvis]

> "I wish to give him a list of names of people whom I would like to have permission to ascend the mountain to visit Bhava-Agra whenever they please. Within reason, of course."

>"It should be no problem to give him that," says Momiji.

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Nod.
> "All right, if you are willing, and Lord Tenma would find this permissible. If not, well, you know where you can find my people, if not myself."
> "The following people have my blessing to visit Bhava-Agra as they please, assuming they behave properly while on tengu land. The nekomata, Miss Chen Yakumo, the kappa, Miss Nitori Kawashiro, the karakasa, Miss Kogasa Tatara, the outer world humans, Miss Renko Usami and Miss Maribel Hearn, and for however unlikely they are to ever visit, the the underground dwellers, Miss Parsee Mizuhashi, Miss Utsuho Reiuzi, and Deva Yuugi Hoshiguma."

>"Let me write that down," says Momiji, producing a notepad and a charcoal pencil. "Chen, Nitori, Kogasa, Renko, Maribel, Parsee, Utsuho and Yuugi..."
>She frowns. "Um, you're sure that Yuugi's not coming back up?"

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "I would be very surprised. But this does not mean I do not want to extend her the invitation regardless."

[Hello Purvis]

> "I would be very surprised. But this does not mean I do not want to extend her the invitation regardless."

>Momiji nods. "Just, you know, we'd have to prepare for that, probably. It's bad enough with Suika comes around unannounced."

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "I will have this information relayed to her."

[Hello Purvis]

> "I will have this information relayed to her."

>Momiji nods. "Alright. Then I think you can leave the rest of this to me."

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "Thank you."
> Turn to Aya.
> "Miss Shameimaru, I have been thinking. These pictures that camera has now may serve to improve exposure of what you do as art instead of simply someone being creepy."

[Hello Purvis]

> "Thank you."
> Turn to Aya.
> "Miss Shameimaru, I have been thinking. These pictures that camera has now may serve to improve exposure of what you do as art instead of simply someone being creepy."

>"Go on?" says Aya.

[Kilgamayan]

> "Well, your message is that everyone is vulnerable sometimes, correct? It seems natural that this message would be easier to appreciate when accompanied by evidence that the one trying to spread it is vulnerable themselves, in a way previously thought unattainable. You now have some of the most convincing evidence of your message; I think it is unlikely you will have a better chance to spread it throughout Gensokyo."

>"It'll be part of the gallery," says Aya.

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "Yes, but how often is the gallery viewed by others?"

[Hello Purvis]

> "Yes, but how often is the gallery viewed by others?"

>"...Not very often," says Aya, frowning. "Especially since it got taken down."

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Frown.
> "Unfortunate. But, to be honest with you, the lack of viewership of your gallery is somewhat understandable, as it is a hard subject into which to delve. People are likely to be turned off to your message if they feel victimized by your only means of conveying it. With those pictures, however, you have a chance to give exposure to your gallery and your message. People will have a chance to see that maybe you really aren't all that interested in the simple act of looking at someone's undergarments, maybe there is some other meaning to what you do, if you are willing to put yourself forth in front of everyone in this manner."
