> Remembering something she asks "Oni... aren't you one of those Youkai who drink that bitter water then get all silly afterward?"
> You're flying over Misty Lake, there are no trees! Infact you're almost to the Scarlet Mansion, you can just barely make it out through the fog.

> As well as an average human. You're not sure if real Oni have some kind of magical edge over you or are simply more muscular and built-up.

> You can't exactly describe it, you just kind of pondered what the two of you would look like with that aspect swapped and let the warm red magic of the pendant and your subconscious(?) figure the rest out.

> Once again you both make it past the gatekeeper withour her stirring from her sleep. Even one of them lake fairies would be more useful as a lookout!
> Both of you land at the front door, the short Youkai attempting to knock but hesitating at the last moment and glancing toward you instead with an expectant look.

> You follow her in and down the stairs to the library. A few of the fairy maids fly off into the depths of the library to let Patchouli know you're there.
> Rumia looks at you and asks "I-Is she really that tough?"

Kilgamayan · « **Reply #262 on:** June 12, 2023, 03:32:56 PM »

Kilgamayan · « **Reply #264 on:** June 12, 2023, 04:37:58 PM »

> Shocked the librarian stumbles around with her words "W-what!? It's t- ... Well I guess she's already kind of worn out from playing with you earlier. I supposed I could allow it..."
> Upon hearing Patchouli Rumia jumps from excitement "Oh thank you so much! I'll prove I'm worthy I swear!" and runs over to the librarian to tug at her dress. Patchouli raises an eyebrow and ponders what the little girl could mean.
