Myon Quest - Scattered Souls

[Neovereign]

> Given her spirit has been very malleable, how rigid or malleable has Aya's body felt within us?

> Use our human half to assist our phantom half getting Aya's body in the air to head height by lifting ourselves (and Aya) with our arms.
> Phantom half: "Oh. I guess that's fair. Is there somewhere else you'd prefer to go?'

> It's felt like a normal body, not really malleable at all compared to a spirit.

> "Hm... The Hakurei Shrine should be a safe enough place."
> You try to help, but it doesn't help much. It's still an entire body.
> You end up stumbling and falling under her weight and the poor footing this forest offers.
> "For this kid to be the one to find me like this..." Aya sighs.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Let out a pathetic "Myo~n..." as we hit the ground.
> Get our human half into a sitting position.
> "Mmmmm...this might be more difficult than I thought..."
> Lie our phantom half down face up with legs toward our human half.

> Lie our phantom half down face up with legs toward our human half.

> You sit down in slight deflation, and have your phantom half lie down.
> "Weren't you carrying me just fine earlier? I'm not that heavy." Aya reminds you, seemingly oblivious so far.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Actually, reposition our human half so we're lying on our stomach facing toward our phantom half.
> Is Aya's spirit able to see our human half from her current position, that we can tell?
> Phantom half: "I think I tried to lift you too high for myself that time, yeah..."
> Take hold of our phantom half's legs with our human half, open our human half's mouth, and try to (gently) pull our phantom half's legs into it (with Aya's body presumably going along for the ride).

> You lie down as well.
> You can't see her spirit from here, but your phantom half can see you, so you're not sure. Maybe she can, being a bit above her own body.
> It's... the view is blocked... Was she seriously prepared for this sort of occasion...?
> You can't fit both of your phantom half's legs in your mouth.

[Kilgamayan]

> Are they not malleable enough for us to squish them together?

[Neovereign]

> Are they not malleable enough for us to squish them together?

> Not with Aya's body in them.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> And we have now actively tried this and it didn't work?

[Neovereign]

> And we have now actively tried this and it didn't work?

> Yes. Myon's legs squeeze, until they get to Aya's own.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Drat.
> Stand back up with our human half, then do the same with our phantom half.
> "I suppose we can walk there."

[Neovereign]

> Drat.
> Stand back up with our human half, then do the same with our phantom half.
> "I suppose we can walk there."

> You stand back up in defeat.
> "I'm in no rush, as long as we're headed there first."
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Grab Aya's news bag with our human half.
> Then set off toward the Hakurei Shrine on foot.
> "I wonder if Reimu fell victim to this too."

[Neovereign]

> Grab Aya's news bag with our human half.
> Then set off toward the Hakurei Shrine on foot.
> "I wonder if Reimu fell victim to this too."

> You take Aya's bag and start for the Hakurei Shrine.
> "How many people have you seen like this so far? It doesn't sound like just me."
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "Mister Shopkeeper. And myself, before I fixed myself."

[Tom]

> Ponder the types of incidents we could get away with if Reimu has been affected!  Has Miss Yuyuko desired anything extraordinary lately?

[Neovereign]

> "Mister Shopkeeper. And myself, before I fixed myself."

> Ponder the types of incidents we could get away with if Reimu has been affected!  Has Miss Yuyuko desired anything extraordinary lately?

> "And you didn't take too long getting to me. Maybe it was only in a certain area. Hopefully."
> She's been content. Though, there's other people that would get in the way of certain goals anyways, like Marisa.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> How does having an entire person inside us feel, anyway? Aside from heavy.
> In how much detail can we feel Aya's body, anyway?

> Human half: "Hopefully. Though I wouldn't mind carrying both you and Reimu around if it came to that."
> "Oh, by the way, can you try to get out of me? I'm curious if you can."

> You aren't sure how to describe it. It's definitely not pleasant, at least. You'd like if you could get to the shrine sooner and place her down already.
> Not that much. You don't think you would be able to identify her as Aya if you were blinded then had her removed and replaced back in.

> "Is it really smart to do that now?" Aya asks.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> How attractive is Aya?

> "Well, it's easy enough to get you back in if we need to, now that we know what to do. But you don't have to if you don't want to."

[Neovereign]

> How attractive is Aya?

> "Well, it's easy enough to get you back in if we need to, now that we know what to do. But you don't have to if you don't want to."

> "I'll try when we get there.

> You think she beats you out... It's nothing you'd lose focus on your goal for, at least.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Nod.
> "Sure."
> Keep on traveling, feel-checking from time to time if Aya's body or spirit feel like they're changing somehow as a result of being inside us.

> You continue on to the Hakurei Shrine, nothing feeling weird along the way....
> You can see Reimu outside, though Marisa is here, too. They're both with their actual bodies...
> "Then why did you leave her there?" Reimu questions.
> "I didn't. She's on her way. It'll just take a bit." Marisa says.
> "You didn't offer her a ride?"
> "Well I think she wanted to gather herself at home first. I could've waited for her, but aren't you glad I got here before you ended up like that too?"
> "Hm... speaking of..." Reimu looks your way.
> "Ah, good, its not a global thing yet. There's still a chance for whoever did this to get done in." Aya comments.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "So this is happening elsewhere?"

[Neovereign]

> "So this is happening elsewhere?"

> "Oh? Youmu? And Aya?" Marisa questions.
> "In the-... right..." Aya sighs.
> "Is she dead? No wait, is this the thing that happened to Alice? Ah, did you find her near the Human village?"
> "Was sorta close to it before I had to make that crash landing."
> "I just found Alice's dolls carrying her unconscious body from the village while I was out earlier. Could be a youkai attack on the village."
> "Did you check on the humans themselves?" Reimu asks.
> "Ah..."
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Human half: "That was the next step. It happened to me, but I fixed myself. It also happened to Mister Shopkeeper, but he seemed fine with being left by himself."
> Walk our phantom half up next to Reimu so she can inspect if she wishes.
> Human half: "So...what is it, anyway?"

> Human half: "So...what is it, anyway?"

> You approach Reimu.
> "So, I can crash here for a bit and keep my body safe, right?" Aya asks.
> "Rinnosuke doesn't get in people's way much." Marisa comments. "Interesting. Did you come here right after that happened?"
> "We could wait for Alice to arrive and tell us what happened."
> "Ah, she couldn't really communicate with me. Or at least, I had to with her dolls instead. They said she was like a little ghost of herself, but I only saw her body. Probably means Aya's ghost is here too."
> "Oh great, so they won't hear or see a thing I do, huh..." Aya laments.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Could we fit Reimu inside our phantom half, given Aya's body is in there? If not all of her, how much of her might we be able to get in there?

> Give Aya's spirit a sympathetic look, then look back to Reimu.
> "She, uh...she is. And she's not thrilled that you can't see or hear her."

> Just an arm or two with this space left... a head or other larger area part wouldn't work.

> "Oh? And you can?" Marisa asks. "Must be a benefit of having one foot in the grave already."
> "I can tell she's in your phantom half, but not as much specific without focusing on it." Reimu says.
> "So I'm just being ignored in the end." Aya further laments.
> "Must be rough being an early victim of this. I'd offer some snacks, but..."
> Aya sighs.
> "What did I do to get picked first like this?"
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Reach into our phantom half with a human half arm and gently pat Aya's body's back.
> "Sorry...we'll fix it as quickly as we can, okay?"
> Look back to Reimu.
> "How can you tell she's in there, anyway?"
> Alter our phantom half so it's back in its normal orbular form, and manipulate Aya's body to curl it up so it takes up less space. Reassess how much space is available in there is this is done.

> "You get used to noticing immaterial things when you have a profession like this." Reimu answers.
> You return your phantom half to it's usual form, trying to curl up Aya's body within - though, it's not working well. It doesn't seem to rest in a very curled up state.
> "I don't think you should be playing with a reporter's body like that. Or anyone's." Marisa comments.
> Aya moves towards the end of your Phantom half, slipping out suddenly.
> "Yeah, you should just leave her with me..." Reimu seems to agree.
> "I'd joke about being worried on what you plan on doing to me when we're alone, but I'll just settle for being in reliable hands..." Aya comments.
