> Take a moment to enjoy the sights, we might not get many 'moments' more to enjoy depending on how this goes...

>You bask in the scene for a moment. Just the atmosphere here feels good. You really wish that places like this were in Heaven. Though you just know that these beautiful gardens would just have peach trees instead, an annoying thought.

> "Alright"
> Head into shrine, but keep our eyes open, if we see anything suspicious, stop moving.

>You walk into the shrine, it's well-decorated considering its purpose. But a well-respected person lives here, so that's probably to be expected.
>>"I'm going into the other room to get our equipment, I'll only be a moment. Hopefully you two can keep each other company and not do anything strange."
>"I have no idea why she thinks we're going to break something or some other."
>"Anywho, welcome to my abode! A comfy place, is it not? Before you answer that, I have something to give you."

>Yuyuko moves over to a table and pulls a pink glass bottle with a small nozzle, then walks over and pushes it into your hands.
>_?

fyi, some of the images in the OP are broken because they're being hosted on discord.

Youmu:

> Hold up our newly-ribboned wrist to study it with some concern.
> "...I can imagine, yes."

Myon:

> Do we have a phantom ribbon on our phantom wrist?
> You make sure you don't have one on your phantom half. Good.
> You do worry about what this will do to you... will you start attacking people out of nowhere? Will your hand move on its own?
> ... Nothing bad seems to be happening yet, at least.
> "So it's magic, or cursed, for sure." Marisa says.
> "Do you feel anything?" Alice asks.
> "Hm... what's all this about a ribbon, again?" Aya questions. "It looks like another devious thing that amanajaku would have in her repitore.
> Aside from Yuyuko and Yukari, now chatting about your cooking skills compared to Ran's and Chen's, everyone else pauses in consideration.
> "Wait, did I hit the spot? Ah, I accidentally solved it too quick, huh~☆" Aya gives a pseudo sigh.
> "No one ever figured out where she got those from though, right?" Marisa questions. "And they were usually sorta related to how they look. This one just looks like a miscolored ribbon. It could be something of Hina's for all we know..."
> "I'd say we could just ask Seija, but..." Miko looks aside.

> Take a few potshots at the occasional fights!
> Can we summon our sphere form with different sizes?
> You can. To fit in the palm of your hand, or even house crushing. You haven't tested the limits.
> You fire of some attacks at the fairies, watching them explode or go crashing into the ground or one another from the hit. They're really weak. But at least you're someone who can tinker your damage enough to not just obliterate them.
> "Perhaps we should provoke that ice fairy into a fight?" Your other half questions, next to you. "We could even give her an advantage and see how that improves or hinders her performance when still outmatched."

Tentative ranking after a lot of listening last night and today. I'm separating the originals and arranges because otherwise I honestly don't know how I'd rank them.

Arranges:
  • Yorimashi Sits Between Dreams and Reality ~ Necro-fantasia: I don't know why but that new intro was jaw-dropping, even though it was a relatively simple rearrangement. How did he make a top tier track even better?
  • Crazy Backup Dancers: The new coda is amazing, and the whole track really gives off the "descending into madness" vibe even more than it did in-game.
  • Concealed Four Seasons: The way ZUN lays out the arpeggios into the final coda/key change is sublime, it's similar to the key change in RCS Illusionary White Traveler.
  • Smoking Dragon: The offbeat accent-hits on this one are amazing.
  • Does the Forbidden Door Lead to This World, or the World Beyond?: Pretty standard album arrange, not much to note.
  • Lamentations only Known by Jizo: The instrument change for the melody is interesting, but I think I like the original more.

Originals:
  • Mugen Noh ~ Taboo Marionette: Just amazing, has a bit of that HSiFS lategame creepiness, mixed in with GFC calmness, in a folk mood. Probably my number one in the entire album.
  • Tinkerbell of Inequality: Extremely troll track on first impression, but the percussion is starting to be addictive, lol.
  • Morning on Tanabata Hill: The hazy, is-this-fantasy-or-reality atmosphere comes across really well here.
  • Apparitions Abound even Outside of Night: Really feels like an ED theme, like I can imagine a game's credits scrolling while listening to this.
  • Lonesome Path in Hitachi: This needs some time to grow on me, but that ending is quite interesting.

> If we spot anything interesting make the next toss towards that direction!
> You peer around in boredom, hoping something comes up...
> There's nothing of note... everything seems calm. There's still the occasional fairy fight, but nothing interesting is going on...
> Maybe you can stir up something yourself.

> "They are pretty fun. These keystones are practically an all in one tool."
> Pick up the up the pace with our floating so we can catch up with Youmu.
> Tease Yuyuko "Get used to this, and it'll be hard to go back to walking!"

> When picking up the pace double check that miss Saigyouji hasn't been left behind!  For all we know she could just be pretending to ride on the keystone by floating above it with the same speed, being a ghost and all she might just phase through it otherwise.

>You pick up the speed, you're practically going as fast as you can without using Scarlet Energy and Youmu is still faster. What do they feed this girl?
>"Woo! I can definitely see how you can't go back. I might slightly prefer flying myself, but just by a bit compared to this!"

> What do we know personally or by second-hand accounts about " Dream Versions of people"?

>You don't know much about Dream Versions of people, first or second-hand. You know you did accidentally meet with a Dream Version of Shinmyoumaru during the Perfect Possession phase of the Urban Legend Incident and she somehow switched places with Shinmy as your "Slave". She was not much different from regular Shinmy, other than being a bit more mean and willing to get into fights. She was also surprisingly honest.

> So at our usual "health" were we capable  of not only being at an even drinking contest with Tengu,2nd most alcohol enjoyer and resilient as a Youkai species,but also surpass them"? With how much "effort"?

>At the level of drinking you were at, it was less "effort" and more of your Celestial body keeping you healthy. It wasn't greatly enjoyable but you didn't vomit and you still had your wits about you. You're honestly a bit afraid your body might fail you since you're already sweating a lot despite not wanting to...

> In any case keep in mind we are in a somewhat weaker state...and Yuyuko would likely see through a ploy like " merry-drunk slip-ups of info"...a better window of opportunity were Yuyuko seem and is more interested and pleased to somehow be usefully open about us...

>...and yet it is quite likely she is going to monitor what she is able  about our current state, eventual improvements,and sooner or later send a certain amount of info to The Ministry resulting us not having any relatively major secret for them..."how relatively major" is variable though since we are " still a mostly-trainee of Youmu and a mostly-guest of Yuyuko herself in Hakugyokurou".

>Right, Yuyuko is very clever. And you have no idea if she can even get drunk now.

>Youmu, Yuyuko, and You travel as fast as possible up the stairs. After one more massive stride by Youmu, you're at the top of them and right at the entrance to Hakugyokurou.
>It looks stunning.
>The Cherry Blossoms cover the air in a glow perfect for flower-viewing. The few ghosts simply watch the gardens in peace, having no troubles. The Zen Gardens and Cherry Blossoms create an image that only an expert artist or poet could encapsulate. Does this image last eternity too? You wonder.

>Yuyuko gets off your Keystone and follows Youmu inside the Shrine.
>"We will be waiting for you inside. We need to give you your equipment before you start, of course."
>_?
