> "I'll let the Princess know those are options."
> Look to Sanae.
> "So what did I miss, anyway?"

[Tom]

> "I'll let the Princess know those are options."
> Look to Sanae.
> "So what did I miss, anyway?"

> She explains "I went to Kosuzu's. One of the assistants who was closing up the shop mentioned Yakumo stopped by briefly yesterday to pick up an order."

[Kilgamayan]

> "Anything interesting in that order?"

[Tom]

> "Anything interesting in that order?"

> Disappointed she admits "I was led out because they were closing before I got the chance to ask."

[Branneg Xy]

> Rinnosuke offers "There's a few for sale in the back room, though they may need some repairs at miss Kawashiro's shop before they can work."
> Sanae adds "Or make a generous donation to the Moriya shrine for lady Kanako to provide one as a patron gift!"

> "I'll let the Princess know those are options."

> Nod,reassure Sanae she did well for the opening hours of.today.all considering the mostly- usual deadline of businesses,more humanely usual as weat the Human.Village

> "Inner"-check and "Sanae-wise"-asking check if "the timing and radius are approx.coinciding of the 'Yakumo's Order before that unknown tract of time ..."


>..later on the Night up to the Earliest Morning.

> Sanae agrees "We can add that to the list of things to check tomorrow morning!" before asking "Do you want to follow up on the order placed at Kosuzu's bookstore?"
> Rinnosuke adds "If you stop by early tomorrow before the shop gets busy you can look through the telephones in the back."

[Kilgamayan]

> "I'll talk up the Princess about those things, yeah. She handles the finances, so."

[Tom]

> "I'll talk up the Princess about those things, yeah. She handles the finances, so."

> Rinnosuke states "If that'll be all, I need to finish packing up for today."
> Sanae nods and steps outside.

[Kilgamayan]

> "Pack away."
> Follow Sanae outside.
> Quietly, after the door closes: "So what do you think?"

[Tom]

> "Pack away."
> Follow Sanae outside.
> Quietly, after the door closes: "So what do you think?"

> "Yakumo's order was big and unusual, but I get the feeling the're on good terms. The election seems to be the most likely motivation now."

[Kilgamayan]

> "So you think he's not the one responsible for what happened, even though he's a candidate?"
> While speaking, lightly wrap an arm around Sanae, holding onto her opposite shoulder, and begin walking back to the hotel, physically guiding her to come with us.

[Tom]

> "So you think he's not the one responsible for what happened, even though he's a candidate?"
> While speaking, lightly wrap an arm around Sanae, holding onto her opposite shoulder, and begin walking back to the hotel, physically guiding her to come with us.

> On the way back to the inn Sanae subtly tugs on your arm before leading you towards a small garden in corner the village plaza.
> After glancing around for any eavesdroppers she explains "We didn't find practically any of the items Yakumo bought in her room, which is quite suspicious if you ask me. Obviously I wasn't just ready to just accuse Rinnosuke of making the whole 'shopping spree' story up without proof, that's what a second-rate shrine maiden does! However on the walk back I pieced together a way of proving Rinnosuke's involvement or innocence, without shooting a single danmaku bullet!"
> She pulls you in closer and whispers "Even though we couldn't find Yakumo's purchases, Rinnosuke admitted to buying quite a few unique items from Yakumo. Things you don't usually come across in Gensokyo. So it wouldn't be that difficult for someone sneaking into his shop to find these and verify his story, right?"

[Kilgamayan]

> "It wouldn't, no. What're you thinking for such a plan?"

[Tom]

> "It wouldn't, no. What're you thinking for such a plan?"

> After a moment of thought "Sneaking in tonight after curfew disguised as a fairy? You see not everyone knows about the inn loophole, so you might attract unwanted attention as a Youkai at night."
> She then offers "I could help with the disguise!"

[Kilgamayan]

> Nod.
> "Maybe this is something we can discuss back at the inn, in the privacy of a room, where we can coordinate abilities to refine our plan as much as we can?"

[Tom]

> Nod.
> "Maybe this is something we can discuss back at the inn, in the privacy of a room, where we can coordinate abilities to refine our plan as much as we can?"

> She nods in agreement and invites you to her room at the inn. It looks almost identical to Yakumo's in the layout, but faces the courtyard instead of the plaza.

[Kilgamayan]

> Did we pass the Princess along the way?
> If so, would we have had the opportunity to invite her along?

[Tom]

> Did we pass the Princess along the way?
> If so, would we have had the opportunity to invite her along?

> Yes! You spotted her sitting ontop of an open book in the library.
> After letting Sanae know you head downstairs and fetch the Princess before heading back.

[Kilgamayan]

> Catch the Princess up on what we've learned today, including what we learned from Kogasa (since we didn't tell Sanae that stuff).

[Tom]

> Catch the Princess up on what we've learned today, including what we learned from Kogasa (since we didn't tell Sanae that stuff).

> You recount the events at Kogasa's store and present the blade in question. Sanae grabs it with excitement and immediately strikes several overdramatic poses, while exclaiming it reminds her of a sword from one of her favorite 'video game' series! Shinmyoumaru claps and complements her performance!

[Kilgamayan]

> Just to double-check, is the Princess her regular doll size at the moment?

> Do we know what a 'video' is? If yes, do we know what a 'video game' is? (Presumably we know what a game is.)

> Give small polite applause as well.
> "Yes, it's quite nice, isn't it? But I have to confess I was more interested if any of the metallurgy stuff Kogasa said means anything to you, in regards to investigating Yakumo up close and personal."

> Indeed she is!

> You do not know the term 'video'. // Seija might be able to figure out what a 'moving picture' is though!

> Nodding "I would like to test if the statue is made of gold... I'll have to ask miss Kanako if we should purchase one of those testers!"

[Kilgamayan]

> "I'm sure Kogasa would appreciate the business."
> Look to the Princess.
> "By the way, Princess, Kogasa is someone of interest to you, I think. She's willing to spend her lunch break tomorrow stopping by here and meeting you, if you wish."

[Tom]

> "I'm sure Kogasa would appreciate the business."
> Look to the Princess.
> "By the way, Princess, Kogasa is someone of interest to you, I think. She's willing to spend her lunch break tomorrow stopping by here and meeting you, if you wish."

> Shinmyoumaru nods "Yes! I'd like to meet her!"
> Sanae interrupts "Now, about finding Yakumo's purchases... Fairies are always fooling around and getting into places they shouldn't, so I think our best chance would be to disguise as one of them!"

[Kilgamayan]

> "Right, about that. Do you want to do that, or should I?"

[Tom]

> "Right, about that. Do you want to do that, or should I?"

> Smirking she comments "It'd take a miracle to pull off such an elaborate disguise!" as sparkly energy surrounds you both, transforming you into a fairy!

> You're now disguised as a Lake Fairy, which grants you a doll-sized body and an even smaller hitbox! Be careful though as one pellet is all it takes to poof into a    or  ! As a high-class Lake Fairy you'll automatically use "Desperation Attack", upon getting hit and summon several fast danmaku kunai aimed at your attackers true hitbox.

> You look around examining your new body, and notice Sanae appears frozen in a trance surrounded by sparkly energy.
> Shinmyoumaru exclaims "I guess that solves who's going!"

[Kilgamayan]

> Just to double-check, is the shrine maiden's chest smaller or larger than ours?
> Fly around the shrine maiden, to see if her eyes follow us or she is otherwise aware of us.

[Tom]

> Just to double-check, is the shrine maiden's chest smaller or larger than ours?
> Fly around the shrine maiden, to see if her eyes follow us or she is otherwise aware of us.

> As of now you have no chest to speak of!
> She doesn't appear to be aware of you. Hovering around feels different than usual, as if there's wind resistance. Could this be what having wings feels like?
> Wings allow Seija to take advantage of aerodynamic flight in addition to hovering! // A good comparison would be how fast one moves in Minecraft with the Elytra vs hovering in creative mode.

[Kilgamayan]

(FWIW I have actually never played Minecraft)

> Oh, do we no longer look like ourselves at all, or what?

[Tom]

(FWIW I have actually never played Minecraft)

> Oh, do we no longer look like ourselves at all, or what?

> You look completely different! You're wearing a light blue skirt, have longer blonde hair, and crystal-like wings floating behind you! A true Lake Fairy!
