Youmu:

> "...I...suppose I have no real answer for that. May I ask your name?"

[Neovereign]

Youmu:

> "...I...suppose I have no real answer for that. May I ask your name?"

> "Mikuru. ...I think. Some of my friends called me Meguri, too..."
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "Well, which one do you call yourself?"

[Neovereign]

> "Well, which one do you call yourself?"

> "I guess i can myself Mikuru more."
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Myon:

> How is Gwen holding up?

Youmu:

> Nod.
> "Well met, Mikuru. You can call me Youmu."
> Gesture to Myon.
> "And you may call her Myon. She is part of me, and I of her, but it is nice to have separate names for my two halves. Oh, and the water entity within Myon is called Gwen."

[Neovereign]

Myon:

> "And you may call her Myon. She is part of me, and I of her, but it is nice to have separate names for my two halves. Oh, and the water entity within Myon is called Gwen."

> She seems to be patiently waiting through your conversation.
> "HI Youmu and Myon and Gwen." The fairy greets.

[Kilgamayan]

Myon:

> "Go ahead and greet our guest, Gwen."

[Neovereign]

Myon:

> "Go ahead and greet our guest, Gwen."

> Gwen gives a simple wave.

[Kilgamayan]

Youmu:

> "Anyway, Mikuru, you be careful while doing that."

[Neovereign]

Youmu:

> "Anyway, Mikuru, you be careful while doing that."

> "I told you I've been doing this for years. I'm fine."
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Youmu:

> "Even still, one overconfident lapse in judgment can spell disaster. When one's way of life is inherently dangerous, one would do well to never forget that."

[Neovereign]

Youmu:

> "Even still, one overconfident lapse in judgment can spell disaster. When one's way of life is inherently dangerous, one would do well to never forget that."

> "It's happened before, but I can't get hurt like that anymore."
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Youmu:

> ...How is that-
> ...You know what, sure. This isn't an argument worth having.
> "I see...it would seem I must step up my training. Very well, have a good day."

Both:

> Continue returning home.

[Neovereign]

Youmu:

> "I see...it would seem I must step up my training. Very well, have a good day."

Both:

> Continue returning home.

> "Wanna train with me, then?" The fairy offers as you ready to leave.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Stop.

Youmu:

> "Possibly. I will need check with my mistress first, though, because it has been quite some time since I was home."

[Neovereign]

> Stop.

Youmu:

> "Possibly. I will need check with my mistress first, though, because it has been quite some time since I was home."

> You stop and answer.
> "Okay, good luck with your my mistress, Youmu." Mikuru waves.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Youmu:

> "Thank you!"
> Wave in return, then continue heading home.

Myon:

> Follow!

[Neovereign]

Youmu:

> "Thank you!"
> Wave in return, then continue heading home.

Myon:

> Follow!

> You wave and continue your way home.
> The phantoms pick up in density, but as usual, harbor no intrusion to your return to Hakugyokurou.
> Gwen doesn't seem to react in any notable way to the scenery, even though this should be a pretty rare and maybe even famous sight in Gensokyo...

[Kilgamayan]

> Where would Yuyuko normally be at this time of day?

[Neovereign]

> Where would Yuyuko normally be at this time of day?

> Usually indoors, either in her room or the main room if she's unreasonably expecting you to already have a meal ready for her like usual.
> If she were outdoors, you'd have seen her by now.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Let's collectively head to our room first, then. If we are able to accomplish what we're hoping to accomplish, we can surprise her!

[Neovereign]

> Let's collectively head to our room first, then. If we are able to accomplish what we're hoping to accomplish, we can surprise her!

> You head to your room. Seems that rolling fairy really was the last intrusion.

[Kilgamayan]

> Exhale, and take a moment to clear our mind to focus on the upcoming task at hand.
> Then, using what we have gleaned from the existence of the phantom sword, apply our knowledge of sword techniques and attempt to combined our human half and our phantom half into a single whole entity.

[Neovereign]

> Exhale, and take a moment to clear our mind to focus on the upcoming task at hand.
> Then, using what we have gleaned from the existence of the phantom sword, apply our knowledge of sword techniques and attempt to combined our human half and our phantom half into a single whole entity.

> You mostly empty your mind, a lot easier than the times you've tried before, beginning an attempt to combine your phantom half with your human half.
> You do remember the earlier failure of even getting your phantom half to engulf you, and Alice's spirit stuff, but they quickly trail off, like being swept away by a current thoughts. Who says you'll fail in the first place, this time?
> You feel something slip your hand a bit...
> A bit more. It feels like someone's tapping your arm. This is going to break your concentration...
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> How far along are we?

[Neovereign]

> How far along are we?

> You don't know. You could have not managed anything at all, or you could be finished - yet you haven't felt anything detailing if anything even started. You've kept worries about how difficult it may be, failure, or even other similar things about it in the first place out of your mind.

[Kilgamayan]

> ...Mentally sigh. We can't take the risk of ignoring Yuyuko...
> Open our eyes and check who is poking us.

[Neovereign]

> ...Mentally sigh. We can't take the risk of ignoring Yuyuko...
> Open our eyes and check who is poking us.

> You peek open.
> It's just Gwen...
>_

[Kilgamayan]

Youmu:

> Is Gwen still within Myon?
> Where is Myon relative to us at this point, anyway?
> "What's up, Gwen?"

[Neovereign]

Youmu:

> Is Gwen still within Myon?
> Where is Myon relative to us at this point, anyway?
> "What's up, Gwen?"

> No.
> Beside-no, wait, that's just the sword.
> You don't see Myon around. Perhaps you've succeeded?
> Gwen gives a thumbs up with a puzzled expression.
