Neo Gensokyo Quest - Part 8

[Kilgamayan]

> Did our other self react at all to getting booped?

> Pout at Dai.
> "C'mon, let us have this."
> Look back to our other self.
> "She is right, though. Our Reimu and our Rumia are also somewhere around here. Speaking of, it seems your Rumia is quite the trickster for someone so private."

> Look back to our other self.
> "She is right, though. Our Reimu and our Rumia are also somewhere around here. Speaking of, it seems your Rumia is quite the trickster for someone so private."

> Only a bit.
> "Three people? And Reimu too. Oh my. I can understand the urgency of coming out here, then. And what's this about Rumia?"
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "I assume it's Rumia, though she looks like Rumia ate Yukari."
> While talking, wrap an arm around Aya's side and gently pull her toward us to lightly squish her into us.
> "We kept seeing her on Hata's phone, and she'd complain about not having privacy before sending darkness bubbles at us. One of those bubbles is how Dai and I got here, in fact."

> "Haven't seen her in a while, so I'm not sure if she's bigger than usual. I can hunt her down for you, though."
> Your other self squishes against you more before snapping a picture of the two of you.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Make sure to smile for said picture!
> "That'd be much appreciated. I'm impressed you can see that well in this darkness, though."
> Slide the arm wrapped around Aya down until or hand is resting on her backside.

[Neovereign]

> Make sure to smile for said picture!
> "That'd be much appreciated. I'm impressed you can see that well in this darkness, though."
> Slide the arm wrapped around Aya down until or hand is resting on her backside.

> You can't have yourself looking bad in your own paper.
> "What do you mean? You can't?" Aya questions. "Don't tell me you've gone blind suddenly." She presses against you more, this time, face to face, holding on to your waist. "I'm coming in clear, right?"
> "Thanks to my light..." Daiyousei says. "But otherwise, it's pitch black out here. Like Rumia's darkness."
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "Yeah, I can see you thanks to Dai, and I could definitely feel you coming in the first place. As well as now."
> Place our other hand on her chest.
> "But our general range of vision is pretty limited, and the other winds are kind of difficult to feel."

[Neovereign]

> "Yeah, I can see you thanks to Dai, and I could definitely feel you coming in the first place. As well as now."
> Place our other hand on her chest.
> "But our general range of vision is pretty limited, and the other winds are kind of difficult to feel."

> "Well isn't that weird. Sounds like I've got you beat in some ways, then." Aya smiles, running her free hand through your hair. "You're missing out on a lot of important details like that."
> Daiyousei's light dies out, leaving you in darkness with your other self.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "Dai?"

[Neovereign]

> "Dai?"

> "I'm just saving my energy for when it actually matters..." The fairy speaks in the darkness.
> "What do you mean? You've got the top informant and information gatherer in Gensokyo here." Aya says.
> "I certainly couldn't tell. I'm sure Reimu or Yukari would've told us twice as much that we needed to know by now. But maybe I'm just a little sleepy and annoyed..."
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "Ah, sorry, Dai, you're right. Let's continue this later, Lady Shameimaru."
> Give her a squeeze with both hands, then let go.
> "So where can we find your Rumia, or at least our Reimu and our Rumia? I hope you don't mind being a guide, given the circumstances."

[Neovereign]

> "Ah, sorry, Dai, you're right. Let's continue this later, Lady Shameimaru."
> Give her a squeeze with both hands, then let go.
> "So where can we find your Rumia, or at least our Reimu and our Rumia? I hope you don't mind being a guide, given the circumstances."

> You squeeze the wind bags other you before letting her go.
> "I'll find her in a snap. You can come along if you want." Aya says. "Or I could bring her here."
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "We can go with you."
> Take Aya's hand in one hand and Dai's hand in the other.

[Neovereign]

> "We can go with you."
> Take Aya's hand in one hand and Dai's hand in the other.

> You take your hand, and... well Dai didnt approach Aya as much as you. You reach around a bit, but do get her hand.
> "Alright, I'll try not to go too fast for Dai now."
> "Don't patronize me." Daiyousei says. "I can handle it."
> "Hm, Cirno says that too" Your other self starts to lead you and Dai. Hardly the regular tengu speed...
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Send Aya a wind whisper: "Oh, trust her when she says she can handle it. You can crank this up."
> If we can't seem to harness the wind enough to do this, speak it out loud normally.

[Neovereign]

> Send Aya a wind whisper: "Oh, trust her when she says she can handle it. You can crank this up."
> If we can't seem to harness the wind enough to do this, speak it out loud normally.

> You try it out, and given she picks up her speed, you think that still works.
> You quickly reach... well, you suppose your destination.
> "Well, found her." Aya gestures.
> Dai starts another light, showing Rumia eating something. Though she covers her eyes a bit at the light.
> "Ah, bright." You hear her, as... another Rumia covers her eyes too.
> Both look like the usual, small Rumia, though."
> "Oh, two for one? Is one yours?" Aya asks.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "...Huh. I assume so, but...the Rumia that Hata found didn't look like either of these."
> Look to the two Rumias. Do either of them feel like our Rumia?

[Neovereign]

> "...Huh. I assume so, but...the Rumia that Hata found didn't look like either of these."
> Look to the two Rumias. Do either of them feel like our Rumia?

> You... aren't sure. They both seem to feel the same...
> Daiyousei decreases her light, and the two stop covering their eyes.
> "Oh, Aya. And Dai?" Both question. "What is it?"
> "Um... have either of you seen another Rumia?"
> Beat... both point at each other.
> "Another another Rumia." Daiyousei corrects. "Taller and such?"
> "I don't think so."
> "It's always dark here by the way. This place is nice."
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "Which one of you saw the larger Rumia on a tengu's phone camera very recently?"

[Neovereign]

> "Which one of you saw the larger Rumia on a tengu's phone camera very recently?"

> One of the Rumias raises her hands. You can't tell a difference between them... then again, it's pretty dark anyways.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Point to the Rumia raising her hand while looking at Aya.
> "That's ours. Dunno why yours is identical, though. Makes me want to ask your Hata to try to spy on the larger one."

[Neovereign]

> Point to the Rumia raising her hand while looking at Aya.
> "That's ours. Dunno why yours is identical, though. Makes me want to ask your Hata to try to spy on the larger one."

> "I figure she just hasn't been doing much on either end? Worth calling her over at least, since it sounds like this secret Rumia is starting an incident." Aya says.
> "I'm afraid of the possibility of some light Rumia being on the other end, and there being two secret Rumias..." Daiyousei admits.
> "Would that be four in total? That's quite a few of me..." The other Rumia says.
> "Mhm." Yours agrees.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> "If there is, maybe the other other one would send us to our Gensokyo with her darkness."

[Neovereign]

> "If there is, maybe the other other one would send us to our Gensokyo with her darkness."

> "I'll be right back." Aya says, darting off and leaving you with the two Rumia's and Dai.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Look to our Rumia.
> "You wanna go back home?"

[Neovereign]

> Look to our Rumia.
> "You wanna go back home?"

> "It's kinda nice here. I'm fine."
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Nod.
> "As you wish. Hope the journey you took to get here wasn't too bad."

[Neovereign]

> Nod.
> "As you wish. Hope the journey you took to get here wasn't too bad."

> "Good luck in your Thingies." Rumia says.
> "I wonder, why would she bring us here if she wasn't going to do anything to us? Nothings happened yet." Daiyousei says.
> Aya returns with Hatate in tow.
> "Oh. That's... quite a different you." Hatate comments.
>_

[Kilgamayan]

> Grin and wink at Hata.
> "Don't worry, there's plenty of me to go around."
> Look back to Dai.
> "Yeah, I'm wondering about that too. As well as how she was able to bring us here."

[Neovereign]

> Grin and wink at Hata.
> "Don't worry, there's plenty of me to go around."
> Look back to Dai.
> "Yeah, I'm wondering about that too. As well as how she was able to bring us here."

> "So what am I looking for?"
> "I guess Rumia?" Aya questions.
> "Found her." Hatate gestures to the pair.
> "A different one." Daiyousei says.
