Nitori Quest 2 - A Z-Machine Adventure

[It's Purvis!]

> Stand ourselves (so that we can get a better sense of how much shorter than her we are).
> "I'd be disappointed in myself if I gave you any less, Miss Iizunamaru."

>You almost but not quite come up to her chest.
>The daitengu nods, unreadable as ever. You want to think she is amused by your confidence, but perhaps that is wishful thinking.
>"As would we," she says. "I'm sure you can show yourselves out?"

> When the situation relaxes and there is no risk of impoliteness or disrepect,look at Koakuma Peacefully...

> ...how is her expression and body language ?

> Does she still seem to take "social interaction's opportunity, to Iizunamaru the Daitengu" in the "misunderstood and exaggerated sense"?

>Koa seems to be confused about what happened, if anything. JUdging from her expression, she seems to feel something went over her head.

> "We're gone."
> Look at Koa and nod our head toward the exit.
> "Let's go, Koa. There's still work to do."
> Head back out of the building.

> Look at Koa and nod our head toward the exit.
> "Let's go, Koa. There's still work to do."
> Head back out of the building.

>You hurry out of the building, Koa in tow.
>"What was that?" she says. "You went through all that for a board game night?"

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Begin heading home by air.
> "A board game night with a daitengu."

[It's Purvis!]

> Begin heading home by air.
> "A board game night with a daitengu."

>"You've got to be kidding me!"

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "Think of it this way. If you had the opportunity to do something difficult, and the reward was, I dunno, Reimu inviting you to her bed for a night, wouldn't you take it?"

[It's Purvis!]

> "Think of it this way. If you had the opportunity to do something difficult, and the reward was, I dunno, Reimu inviting you to her bed for a night, wouldn't you take it?"

>"...Okay, that's a fair point," she says.

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Nod.
> "Exactly. That being said, I admit this new development isn't exactly what you signed up for, and I am sorry for that."

[It's Purvis!]

> Nod.
> "Exactly. That being said, I admit this new development isn't exactly what you signed up for, and I am sorry for that."

>"I guess it's fine, as long as you don't ask me to do anything stupid or dangerous. Or really hard, I guess."

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "I'll try not to."

[It's Purvis!]

> "I'll try not to."

>"Okay, good, then I don't mind!" Koa says.

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "Great. Oh, though I should probably also tell Aoi about this...I hope she's fine with it too."

[It's Purvis!]

> "Great. Oh, though I should probably also tell Aoi about this...I hope she's fine with it too."

>"Oh right, you did say something about bringing a tengu with us," Koa says.

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "I offered to do it, and that offer wasn't taken. Unless Aoi changes her mind, Aya will have to wait for a hypothetical second trip."

[It's Purvis!]

> "I offered to do it, and that offer wasn't taken. Unless Aoi changes her mind, Aya will have to wait for a hypothetical second trip."

>"Oh, right, I got you now," says Koa.

> Hold to that meaningful thought, no going forward mixing (mostly-categoric situations and relationd)untowardness, overboard or off-shooting r too-long-shoting, for ourselves, our contacts, patronage, competitors, friends and potential crew... not minimizing others types, peoples along and about.

> Somehow Pensive and Focused... but not distracted or sidetracked.

> Among the earlier 1st list-check: Crew on-board  for the Rockett-to-Space-Explotation+Knowkedge, then also the 2 "mostly coverage contacs" on the good ol' Gensokyo's Terrain...

> so far the crew is us 3 for a surely safe and , Aoi and Koakuma; then on earth-soil as a sort-of 1st press&relay correspondentwith Hatate, not wiling to embark as much as a chosen Teng but rather  an Honest Covera; ax Aya as the the 2nd one accepting and more eager for it and especially but fairly eager fo"2nd eventual Space Trip and Exploration including her...or the 1st substitute in the current1 in the What-If of a  is it not correct o?

> The 3-spot/sear Ship Rocket is to be tested and trial but thorically it is a 3-seats-spots Fully Safe and Maneuvrable plus Efficentlx Self-Sufficint..
 an eventual next and  improved and stabilized  partly-experimental pexpanded with a few more seats&spots, Space-Rocket-Ship named(perphaps) "NK-Mk2(Nitori Kappan-Mark 2)"... is it all decently. correct on the Current End?xThen are"those future margins of the Current Project not that far-out?

> Where are Aoi(1st), Aya(2nd), (3rd) Hatate,  Aoi should be located or passing since our "prevoius contacted-to-eventual-crew-and-intel" meeting, if need-be the  estimate totrackabable place, route, acquaintances and not to check?

[Kilgamayan]

> Adopt a dawning look of realization, then frown.
> "...Though, in thinking about it, Aya is going to come by to tell me her decision, and once she learns you're going with me, I'd bet she'll print that, given she knows my competition is your employer."

>"...Ah hell, we're going to have to stuff her in a closet or something."

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "I would really rather not do that. At least, not over this."

[It's Purvis!]

> "I would really rather not do that. At least, not over this."

>"...I guess once we're off the ground, it doesn't matter who she tells. Still, just to be safe, we oughta.

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "It'll matter once we return and you have to face your employer. Unless you're intending to live in space? ...Which would be pretty admirable, really."

[It's Purvis!]

> "It'll matter once we return and you have to face your employer. Unless you're intending to live in space? ...Which would be pretty admirable, really."

>"Well, after the fact, it won't be so bad," she says.

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "Mmm. I'm only concerned about it for your sake, so if you're not worried, I won't worry about it either."

[It's Purvis!]

> "Mmm. I'm only concerned about it for your sake, so if you're not worried, I won't worry about it either."

>She chuckles. "Don't worry, as long as I don't blowup part of the mansion or something, they'll just be a little grumpy for awhile."

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "...Okay, I gotta ask. Given the dynamic your workplace appears to have, why did you object so fiercely to becoming my temporary assistant? Was it strictly because you didn't want to be treated like a prize, or is there more to it than that?"

[It's Purvis!]

> "...Okay, I gotta ask. Given the dynamic your workplace appears to have, why did you object so fiercely to becoming my temporary assistant? Was it strictly because you didn't want to be treated like a prize, or is there more to it than that?"

>"Well, pretty much that," she says with a shrug. "I'm a valued member the household, after all! They can't just barter me away like that!"

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "Why did Patchouli tell me to keep you, then?"

[It's Purvis!]

> "Why did Patchouli tell me to keep you, then?"

>"Because she's a big floating butt!"

>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "And why do you want to go back to that?"

[It's Purvis!]

> "And why do you want to go back to that?"

>"...Well, it's not so bad when she isn't being a big floating butt..." Koa says. "And there's the contract and all..."
