Neo Gensokyo Quest

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> "Well, we have another tengu and a kappa approach. We can probably bring the mansion maid, and possibly even Reimu. She's doing something weird at the Shrine in aelf-defense, but the chance to go in the assault might convince her."

[Philosopher]

Seki
>Blush a little
->"No, I just - had a problem I had to take of. And its gone."

Fairy-head
>Better to hurt now then bleed later.  Just got to keep telling myself that

>Glance for curving bullets
->Do our danmaku path plan
-->Look for incoming bullets and dodge if need be

Aya:

> "Hm..." Megumu and Tewi consider.
> "We're at a disadvantage if we go to their turf..." The Tengu thinks.
> "So the moon's out..." Momizi speaks up as she arrives with Nitori.

Seki:

> The guard is clueless to the reason for your wardrobe change.
> "Ah. So back to stretching?"

> You keep trucking, trying to keep up danmaku while dodging.
> The magician is just grazing your attacks now... really?!
> Your plan does seem to be working well,  keeping you out of way of the straight ones, and a bit aware or the curving ones...

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> "Maybe not entirely. With who we have, it sounds like it would be hard, but not impossible. Good to see you again, by the way, Momi. I ran into Boss Iizunamaru and she's helping us now."

[Philosopher]

Seki
>"That sounds like a good start."
->Stretch with the gate guard

Fairy-head
>That's OK, the danmaku is too help us dodge
->But seriously does she really have to graze!

>Keep up our unorthodox dodging method

Aya:

> "I was wondering what someone like her was doing here... guess it's a big deal after all." Momizi speaks.
> "The Lunar capital has soldiers ready for war, last i heard." Tewi says. "We need a lot more.  Or some handicap. Especially if we're going there."

Seki:

> You start to follow Meiling's lead. Though she's starting off with tougher stretches... you can't get your leg that far...

> You ke-
> Ah, one of the lasers. And no way out. Too many bullets surrounding you...
> You swear she was paying attention to you to lead you into this!

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> How battle-trained are tengu, generally?

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> How battle-trained are tengu, generally?

Aya:

> You believe enough to handle intruders at least.  Except for if they're incident resolvers >_>. They should also duel occasionally outside of that. But few want to with their free time.

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> "Well, we have speed, the element of surprise, and the three of the best information-gatherers in Gensokyo, including the head of the entire tengu information branch. We can probably hatch some pretty good guerilla tactics once we're in the field, at the very least."

[Philosopher]

Seki
>Try our best with just some pain

Fairy-head
>Drop fast, look for a way out
->At least dodge the laser even if we run into danmaku

Aya:

> "True... Hm, we're all strong enough to carry one another if we're injured and need to escape. But I'm not sure if actually getting back will be as easy." Megumu looks at the lake.

Seki:

> You stretch your limits more.

> You drop and scan your surr-
> Ah... The pain of danmaku is too much for an extra head like this... You've lost it, with some discomfort.
> At least the forest isn't too far. You can just send another to rejoin...
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> "We'll need to make sure you aren't shoved to any hypothetical front lines, then, I imagine. Will you need another body of water to get us back?"

[Philosopher]

Seki
>Create a head without stopping the stretches

>Send the head back the forest

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> "We'll need to make sure you aren't shoved to any hypothetical front lines, then, I imagine. Will you need another body of water to get us back?"

Seki
>Create a head without stopping the stretches

>Send the head back the forest

Seki:

> You make another head while still stretching, having it head back. Pun unintended.

Aya:

> "I don't know if the Earth and the sky can be reflected in water on the moon..." Megumu says with uncertainty.
> "What about her?" Momizi points out the flying head you lost on the way to the bamboo forest.
> "Smaller recon?" Megumu questions.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> Shrug.
> "Dunno what she's doing. But we should probably make sure we can get back before heading out, then. Could we send part of a rope, maybe, to keep the two spaces connected?"

[Philosopher]

Seki
>How do we feel

Head 2
>If we see a tengu pointing at us move a bit faster
->Don't want to eat crow again

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> Shrug.

Aya:

> "Not sure. This isn't really something I've done much of before." Megumu says.

Seki:

> Tired from this stretching that feels like it's more than you can handle...

> You speed up a little, hoping such a gesture doesn't make the much faster Tengu chase after you...
>_

[Philosopher]

Seki
>Does Meiling look winded?

[Neovereign]

Seki
>Does Meiling look winded?

Seki:

> She doesn't even look the slightest bit tired... You think she could do this for days.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> "Well, there's only one way to find out, I suppose."
> Frown.
> "And I can't very well ask someone else to do something I'm not willing to do myself. I'll go."

[Philosopher]

Seki
>"How long have been doing stretches like this?"
->Imagine if we were doing this without youkai endurance.

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> "Well, there's only one way to find out, I suppose."

> "And I can't very well ask someone else to do something I'm not willing to do myself. I'll go."

Seki
>"How long have been doing stretches like this?"

Aya:

> "We should come up with a plan to at least make it back first." Megumu advises.
> "Yeah, we don't want to start sacrificing yet." Momizi adds.
> "Why don't we find that gap hag?" Tewi proposes. "Surely she can bring someone back if it comes down to it."
> "Or one of those hermits?" Hatate considers. "They can travel to a place of theirs from anywhere last I recall..."

Seki:

> "Just a few minutes. It hasn't even been an hour yet. You can keep this up, right?"
> You'd probably be on the floor in pain by now...

> You return to the forest, seeing Marisa has whipped out some spellcard.
> It looks intimidating, even from here...

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> Do we know where the Yakumos live?

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> Do we know where the Yakumos live?

Aya:

> Roughly, yes.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> What is our opinion of the Yakumos, from having interacted with them before?

[Neovereign]

Aya:

> What is our opinion of the Yakumos, from having interacted with them before?

Aya:

> You think that, without her master around, Ran might not be bad to be around. Yukariz however, always seems to have a hidden motive, even in trivial things. She doesn't have to make everything a puzzle. It's not like you make everything a race...
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Aya:

> Frown a bit.
> "I could try to see what the Yakumos are willing to offer, I suppose..."

[Philosopher]

Seki
>Say with mounting horror, "We're going to be doing this for an hour?"

Head 2
>Watch the fairies and note how they dodge

[Neovereign]

Aya:

Seki

Head 2

Aya:

> "Then one of us should look for a hermit." Megumu says.

Seki:

> "Haha. I'm kidding. I hope you're feeling good and ready now. If so, we can stop stretching and move on to some exercises to make use of that and help you with flexibility." Meiling stops.

> You observe the fairies. They seem grouped behind Sunny...
> Marisa unleashes a giant laser in their direction. Wait, no, that's just light alone?
> Regardless, the orange fairy seems to be deflecting it another direction...
>_

[Philosopher]

Seki:
>"I wasn't expecting it to be as tiring.  I'm ready for the next step."

Head 2
>That wasn't helpful
->Continue watching to see how they dodge non light danmaku
