> You are Daiyousei, a unique fairy living at Misty Lake.
> You used to be regarded as, if anything, a regular fairy a few years ago. But your life changed when you encountered Reimu and Marisa during the unusual Red Mist. Since then, because of how well you defended Misty Lake against them, you have been looked up to and respected by the fairies of the area, as if you were their leader. You begun to make a comfortable amount of friends thanks to the incident, and you've become much better than your old shy and reclusive self.
> For a while now, you've noticed that the amount of fairies at Misty Lake has been dropping steadily. You currently have only one guess for who the culprits could be, and that's the Scarlet Devil Mansion. They don't seem to be outright kidnapping fairies and you've even become interested in working as a maid there. Although it's the closest to the lake, there are still many other places and possibilities. You still haven't gotten help ether, so it's up to you to find and deal with the problem since unfortunately, no one else really cares a lot about fairies.
> Team (9) has gotten a new member too thanks to you. It's Lily White.
> You also learned a new trick thanks to Kochiya Sanae, the Moriya Shrine's shrine maiden. With it, you can grow or shrink to a certain size. This, along with your warping ability, has sparked your interest in finally creating spellcards.
> You are currently lying and sweating a lot in a cramped side building of the Moriya Shrine, full of lots of stuff and thingies that you've never seen before. It's really dark. You're still in the middle of hide and seek with the rest of Team (9).
> You hear the sound of ice shattering outside.

-
>Keep waiting! We must WIN! We're the best at this game, remember!
> You continue waiting. You have a reputation to live up to.
> It sounds like someone's crying outside. Then there's the sound of a door opening, but it's not these doors.
> "I was wondering when you guys would go too far. Okay, who got hurt?" a voice asks.
> "I'm sorry Wriggle, I didn't mean for that to happen."
> "You okay Wriggle?" You hear Mystia's voice now.
> You're really sweaty now. This is getting very uncomfortable.

>Crack the door a fraction of a centimeter just to get some air, peep through if we can.
>Prepare to shut door and run back to hiding spot if Cirno is too close or is likely to notice us.
> You get up and float to the door, sliding it just enough to look through. The wind feels great after being in there for so long.
> You take a quick peek at the outside. Cirno and the others are at the front of the shrine, along with a crying Wriggle, broken ice on the ground and-
> There's a blonde haired girl, just a bit taller than Cirno, in a purple dress. The dress has a frog pattern, but the most interesting thing about her is her hat, which is light brown and sports two eyes.
> For a second, you swear the hat's pupils move towards your direction. No one else is looking your way however.

-
>Move around to see if the eyes follow you.
-
>Move around to see if the eyes follow you.
> You make tiny movements up and down and all around (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXPusrEnV4Q). The eyes still track you.
> "I knew I shouldn't have used them." Wriggle wipes her eyes. The hat's eyes return to their forward position as well.
> "I'll be more careful, sorry." Cirno says.
> "Did you find Daiyousei yet?" Lily asks.
> "Nu uh. Dai-chan's crazy good at hide and seek. I bet she's hiding underground or something. I could probably get her if I was chasing her though."
> "So no one got hurt?" The hat woman asks.
> "No one got hurt, Cirno- uh..." Mystia pauses, looking at Wriggle. "We're alright."
> "Hm. Okay then, I'll be on my way." The woman says. At the same time, the hat's eyes focus back onto you.

> Slip back fully behind the door, away from the crack.

>Put your finger between your lips to ask the hat and/or the lady not to tell her.
>Dissipate heat with the wind that came in.
-
>Put your finger between your lips to ask the hat and/or the lady not to tell her.
> You do another motion to get someone to keep quiet about your whereabouts. The woman turns completely towards you and starts walking your way.
> Slip back fully behind the door, away from the crack.
> You re-enter the room and get to one of the walls for a good vantage point.
>Dissipate heat with the wind that came in.
> Hopefully you'll win before things get uncomfortable again...
> There's footsteps coming your way. You can't see anything through the doors yet however.

-
>It wasn`t my idea ! He came up with it !
-
> Probably just the person with that hat. Still, crouch down and watch the door.
> You crouch and continue to watch the door. Legs come into view, but the person apparently bends over to check something before they reach the door.
> You can hear change bouncing a lot.

> The jingling stops and you can hear something hit the floor right outside.
> "Suwakoo. you've gotta hear this." A voice calls. It's... the tall lady's.
> "What is it?" A voice right outside of the structure replies.
> "Sanae says she's been confessed to!"
> "What? H-Hold on!"
> You hear the footsteps going away.

> "You aren't going to find her Cirno." You hear Mystia say.
> "I can! She's probably far away. None of you guys were, so maybe she is." Cirno replies.

-
> How long does this have to go until we win?
-
> How long does this have to go until we win?
> You could win by either being the last person to be found or if the seeker gives up before they find you. If it's the former, then you'd only win between the hiders. Cirno would still have won by finding everyone.

> Good. With us now standing and the door cracked open a bit, we should be able to last a while longer before the heat gets to us.

> You wink at Cirno to increase the impact of how good you are (at hide and seek).
> "You're amazing Dai-chan!" Cirno says, her eyes practically sparkling. She's usually only like this when she talks about something cool Marisa did recently.
> Mystia giggles a bit.

-
> "Ehehehe, oh, thank you~"
-
> "Ehehehe, oh, thank you~"
> "Really though, how did you hide there? I was checking the door to see if you were gonna shrink and leave, but I didn't see anything." Mystia says. "Never mind, you said you wouldn't tell."
> "What are we gonna do now?" Rumia asks. "Wriggle says said she didn't want to play hide and seek anymore."
> "It's just that I don't want something like that happening again..." Wriggle says.

> You open the shrine doors and are treated to a nice looking place. Much nicer than Reimu's. What steals your attention though, is that there's also one of those box thingies with antennae you saw in the other structure. It's got pictures on it, but, the pictures are moving. Like real life!
> Sanae, the tall woman, and the hat girl are all sitting down, talking.
> "If you don't hate her and you don't dislike her, then that means you like her." The tall woman tells Sanae.
> "It's not like that." Sanae says.
> "Well, what do you think's good about her that you do like?" The hat girl asks.
> "The surprises aren't too annoying or time consuming, and they don't usually hurt..."
> "She's kind, right?"
> "Um, yes she is, Kanako."
> "And she likes you, right?"
> "Yes."

-
>"Uh, hi..."
>The hat's eyes are tracking us, aren't they?
-
>"Uh, hi..."
>The hat's eyes are tracking us, aren't they?
> The hat's eyes are looking straight forward. It doesn't look like it's staring at anything in particular.
> "You guys aren't allowed to play in here, remember." Sanae says.
> "We came to see what you guys were talking about." Mystia explains. "The umbrella girl, right? So where is she?"
> "I haven't seen her since she left. I thought she'd be where she's usually around, but she wasn't."
> "Hey, what's this thing?" Cirno asks, pointing to the picture box.
> "It's a television. We'll let you watch it if you donate..." The hat girl says.
> "No fair. I don't have any money."

-
>It's not like we have to pay to watch their thingy anyway... Maybe someone else has a free one.

> You think about making one of those picture boxes yourself. You'd probably need a box, some pictures and... well, that seems like all you need. Maybe Sanae just used a miracle to make the pictures move.
>So... Maybe we imagined the hat looking at us earlier?
> There's no way the hat looked at you...is there?
>Are we going insane?
>Paranoia intensifies
> You start getting paranoid, and throw the girl's hat across the room.
> "Sanaeee! She took my haaat!" The girl cries.
> "This is exactly why you lost that war..." The tall lady says.
> "Don't you think that's a little harsh Suwako?" Sanae asks.
> "She's the fairy who always freezes frogs, remember? I'm just getting back at her." the hat girl whispers. "Actually, I'm feeling generous today. I'll let everyone but one person in here watch it." The girl pulls out a weird thingy with an arrow on it. "Whoever this points to when it stops spinning on has to leave the room."
> The girl spins the thing.
> "I thought I told you to put that back in the box?" Sanae asks.
> "That was yesterday."
>_
-
>If she starts spinning it, if it looks like the arrow might stop on us or Cirno-chan, warp us or her out of its path before it stops.
>Hey, she did say whoever it was pointing to when it stopped. So if we got out of the way before it did, it won't count, right?
>LOOPHOLE ABUSE!

>LOOPHOLE ABUSE!
>Maybe we should do that to whoever looks like they might get pointed to!
> You think up a genius idea to keep the arrow from pointing to someone undesired.
> The spinning thing starts to slow down, and it looks like it'll stop on Sanae.
> Suddenly, the earth starts to shake, and the arrow is bumped and moved to point at Cirno!
> Before you can do anything, the hat girl interrupts.
> "Ah, too bad. Looks like the ice fairy won't be wat- ow!" Sanae hits her over the head.
> "Stop pulling that trick. Spin it without doing anything." She says.
> "Fine, fine." The girl spins the spinning thing again.

-
>Be prepared to do it again.
-
>Be prepared to do it again.
> You get ready again. This time you're prepared to stop it before it gets to you or Cirno.
> The arrow slows down and looks like it'll land on you, so you warp to the other side of the room before it stops.
> It points to the spot you were at last, meaning it's pointing at no one now.
> "Hey she cheated!" The hat girl shouts.
> "I guess that means no one has to leave and everyone can watch it." Sanae says.
>_
-
>"I didn't cheat. You didn't say anything about not warping, you just said if it stops on a person, that person has to leave. So I technically followed the rules! The Math says so!"
>"Also yay! Nobody has to leave!"
-

> "Don't argue now Suwako, everyone's happy with this but you." Sanae says.
> "Whatever. Didn't you have to find your girlfriend?"
> "Yeah, did you apologize to her yet?" Lily asks.
> "Huh? Apologize for what?" the hat girl asks.
> "Sanae rejected her earlier." Lily answers.
> "Don't say it like that!"
> "Sanae, how could you!? She poured her heart out and you still rejected her!?" The tall woman says.
> "Calm down Kanako, I just said I couldn't return her-"
> "I don't remember raising a heartbreaker... What went wrong?" The hat girl wonders.

> "So did you apologize to Kogasa?" Lily asks again.
> "No. I told you I haven't seen her since she left. I'll go look for her now." Sanae gets up.

>We still need to be better at matchmaking...
-
Should we go chasing after them? I still have visions of us doing something for Sanae that's good and helpful enough that we can wheedle further bigness/smalless out of her (it's not like Reimu has to know that we weren't like that from the beginning), and this seems like one opportunity, but on the other hand people seem to have mostly moved on from that.
-

>We still need to be better at matchmaking...
> "What's a matchmaker?" Cirno questions.
> "Someone who makes couples or relationships happen." Lily says.
> "Oh. I guess so then."
> "Hey, how do you know so much about relationships if you're a fairy?" Sanae asks.
> "Well, spring usually brings people closer together than the other seasons do. I've been around too many couples to not know about love." Lily smiles.

I like the way Kilga thinks. Even if I've let yalls handle the hideyseeks.

> "Me three." Lily says.
> "I'm not. I'm watching this." Mystia says.
> Wriggle and Rumia nod, their eyes affixed to the box.
> "Do you think I could have one of these for my stand?" Mystia asks.
> "If you have money we could probably make it work." The hat girl says.
> "Ahem." Sanae grunts.
> "Oh, bye Sanae!" The hat girl waves. Interestingly, the hat's eyes continue looking towards the picture box.
> "Take care." Kanako says.

> "Ookaay...Where do we search first?" Sanae asks.
> "She flew to this mountain after you rejected her, right?" Lily asks.
> "Yeah, but I couldn't find her when I went there. Also, I didn't reject her."
> "Did you accept her feelings?"
> "...Wel-"
> "Then you rejected her."
> "But saying 'rejected' makes it sound mean..."

-
>"Well, there's really no other way to say it... I think?"

> "Eh? No way."
> "She did look really upset when you reje-... let her down."
> "What is this all about anyways?" Cirno asks. "Aren't you two still friends?"
> "Kogasa wanted to be more than friends." Sanae says.
> "So, best friends?"
> "No, it's about love." Lily says. "You wouldn't get it."
> Cirno looks offended. "I can totally get it! You're not even giving me a chance!!"

-

-
> Point at the far away person.
> "Is that her?"
> "I don't think so..." Sanae squints. "She always has her umbrella with her."

//No problem, just ask away.
> One part of your stay was to visit Rumia and explore the places she wanted to show you. Another part was to find missing fairies. Neither went completely right, and your time was cut short by Reimu coming in to investigate stuff, which is why you had to leave.

> "Maybe you guys would be better off with Kogasa..." Sanae says.

-
I have no preference in that regard and wasn't around when it was a thing anyway. I'll let people who are around for that and have an interest in it one way or the other decide.
EDIT: Alternatively, we can let that stew for a bit, while the plot of the immediate issue advances.

> "Yes. Though I'm pretty sure she'll give up on this wild chase after a while. Also, I'm curious, why do you need to find Kogasa?"
> "I just need to, uh, talk to her" Sanae answers.
> "Ah. I'll tell her you were looking for her if I do see her anytime."
> Sakuya starts to continue towards the village.

-
> "Bye Sakuya!"
> Look to Sanae.
> "So where do we look?"
-
> "Bye Sakuya!"
> "Don't forget to come by if you're interested." Sakuya waves.
> Look to Sanae.
> "So where do we look?"
> "I guess we start by asking others if they've seen her." Sanae says. "Kogasa is somewhat popular with the kids here, so we should ask them."
> "Why not the adults? They actually pay attention to you." Cirno recommends.
>_
-
> "Why not both?"
-
> "Why not both?"
> "Of course, that's faster..." Sanae says. "I guess we should split up as well. We'd be wasting time if we went around as a group."
>_
-
>Hmm... Now the question is how we split up...
-
>Hmm... Now the question is how we split up...
> You ponder how your group should split up.
> You could go with Cirno alone...
> You could accompany Sanae and try to coax her into using a miracle to make you even bigger.
> You and Lily could look for Kogasa and maybe discuss matchmaking along the way.

-
//Whelp, going with anyone but Cirno might cause her to complain... But this could also be a good opportunity to work on one of our goals (bigness or matchmaking)... So what do you guys think?
-
I think it wouldn't be hard to convince Cirno to let us go with Sanae by fluffing her ego.
That being said, I don't have a problem not going with Sanae. Delving further into Operating Biggie Smalls will be a lot easier if/when we find Kogasa.
-
Boy, you two really want to have a more powerful bigness and smallness power (Oh no! I am talking like Daiyousei now :V)
I'm neutral over all options, can't decide what is better.
-
//Well, Kilga does, I'm actually more for improving our
shipping matchmaking skills. Since we probably won't have an opportunity to chat with Lily alone for a while...
-
I don't think the two are mutually exclusive. I also don't think either will really have an impact on the advancement of the game, though - bigness/smallness might be more practically applicable in the right circumstances, but it's not a major "advantage" - so really this is a choice for fun as far as I'm concerned.
My vote is genetically for Sanny, but it's not as though I'm super-impassioned about it. (I would probably vote against a romantic pursuit of Cirno, since it was stated that fairies Don't Do That.)
-
//Uh, we only got the whole 'change bigness/smallness' thing because Sanae's miracles went wrong, right? (And got us and her into trouble with Reimu, too...) Even if we convince Sanae to put more miracles onto us, would it really go the same way? And even if it would, it got us into... erm... that place in the bamboo forest last time, and apparently got us stuck there for a while. Wouldn't Reimu get suspicious when she hears that we are there again with the exact same thing?
//We can already go from "a bit bigger than someone's hand" to "a bit taller than a bamboo forest", anyway. Would we need to be bigger than that? Sure, it'd be really cool to be as tall as a mountain, but wouldn't Reimu get annoyed if we do that? I mean, mountain-sized fairies are probably not the most common thing in Gensokyo, right?.. though, it is Gensokyo, so...
>Are mountain-sized fairies a common thing in Gensokyo?
//Anyway, perhaps it's better to leave the choice to Cirno? She's the leader, after all.
-
since it was stated that fairies Don't Do That.
//Actually, what was actually said was:
>Fairies don't know much about love and usually don't care for it either, since they're born from nature.
//It doesn't necessarily mean all fairies don't care for it, take Lily for example.
//Of course, I agree with you that even though the option is open, a romantic pursuit with Cirno would probably lead to a dead end, since if we ever tried that there is a 90% chance she won't reciprocate because she's too stupid to get the message lol. I mean, we could try if we really wanted to... But like I said, it probably won't make a difference.
//Besides, when was it ever stated that we would try to pursue a relationship with Cirno?
-
Searinox: Valid concerns, definitely, but none are things I hadn't already considered. I think Sanae would try to alter her approach the second time around now that she has a better idea of what she's doing and how it all works. I also think we can get away with making Reimu think we could always get that big and/or it's a time-lapsed side effect. There are a few ways to explain our further growth away.
With regards to needing it, we certainly don't need it, which is why I said it was deciding on fun. We don't need to make more matches, either, but it could be a fun romp, so it's worth considering.
Nazgul: There was some non-verbal doki-doki'ing from the player base earlier in the game, and the way the Cirno option was phrased implies potential romantic pursuit.
-
So we're better waiting to see if Cirno-chan will try to approach us that way than trying ourselves ( which might take from a day to 1 century).
-
>Are mountain-sized fairies a common thing in Gensokyo?

I'm a decider.

-
>"Well, adults are more likely to listen to Sanae, so I guess you guys ask the children?"
-
>"Well, adults are more likely to listen to Sanae, so I guess you guys ask the children?"

-
> "So who do we ask first?"
> "Uh...Oh! Reisen! I think she's still patrolling the village. If Kogasa's here, she must've seen her."

>"Uh, who's that ? Wait, is that the girl with the cute bunny ears ?"
>Where is the school located regarding our current location ?
-
>"Uh, who's that ? Wait, is that the girl with the cute bunny ears ?"
> "Yes it is. You can't forget her tail too though~"
>Where is the school located regarding our current location ?
> The school is more towards the center of the village. You are right outside of the village right now.

-
>"Wow ! Would she let us touch it ? It's so cute !"
>"We can also go ask Miss Teacher at the school."
>Search for Kogasa and Reisen.
-
>"Wow ! Would she let us touch it ? It's so cute !"
> "Hmm, Not sure..." Sanae says.
>"We can also go ask Miss Teacher at the school."
> "Oh yea, her too."
>Search for Kogasa and Reisen.
> You start searching for Kogasa and Reisen. Neither of you spot Kogasa, but you do see Reisen coming around from a corner just outside the village.
>_
-
> Point.
> "There!"
-
> Point.
> "There!"
> "Hey, Reisen!" Sanae shouts, approaching the rabbit. "How are you?"
> "Oh, Sanae. I'm fine. Well, besides the fact that this is really boring..." Reisen says. "The only things I see are the usual fairies and the occasional familiar face."
> "Yeah, Reimu's been taking things too seriously lately."
> The bunny girl nods.
>_
-
> "I'm not the usual fairy, I'm Daiyousei! Have you seen Kogasa?"
-
> "I'm not the usual fairy, I'm Daiyousei! Have you seen Kogasa?"
> "Oh, hello. Have I seen who?"
> "Kogasa." Sanae says. "She wears a lot of blue, has heterochromasomething; two different colored eyes? Carries around an eggplant colored umbrella."
> "Oh, I've seen her. She came here a while ago. I think she should still be here."
>_
-
> Light up our eyes.
> "Where was she?"
-
> Light up our eyes.
> "Where was she?"
> "She should still be in the village, near the school. Didn't look like she was going anywhere."
> "Okay, thanks." Sanae says
>_
-
> "Let's go to the school! Maybe Kogasa is with Teacher Lady!"
> Head to the school.
-
> "Let's go to the school! Maybe Kogasa is with Teacher Lady!"
> Head to the school.
> You and Sanae maneuver through the village and to the school. Keine is talking to Kogasa here, but when she sees the two of you, Kogasa starts to fly away.
> "Hold on, where are you going? You never answered me." Keine says.
>_
-
> "Wait, stop!"
> Zoom off after that umbrella! Don't let her get away!
-
> "Wait, stop!"
> Zoom off after that umbrella! Don't let her get away!
> You fly off after Kogasa with Sanae.
> Kogasa looks back, then starts to pick up speed. She doesn't get far though, as she crashes into a building right as she turns forward.
> "Why are you running?" Sanae asks, approaching Kogasa.
>_
-
> "Well, you did hit her kind of hard..."
-
> "Well, you did hit her kind of hard..."
> "Oh... Hey Kogasa, I'm sorry about hitting you and... after that."
> Kogasa looks up from sitting on the ground.
>_
-
> Give a single, emphatic nod.
> "Good! You can kiss and make up now."
-
Well, that is pretty straight foward. :V
>Whisper to Kogasa: "She also thinks you're cute and nice."
>Go back with the group to Keine.
-
Kissing and making up is an essential part of any argument resolution! That's just what the rules say.
-
> Give a single, emphatic nod.
> "Good! You can kiss and make up now."
> "That's not what I'm here for Daiyousei!" Sanae shouts. "I didn't mean to make you feel bad or anything Kogasa. I like you, but you try to surprise-"
> "Y-You like me too?" Kogasa glows.
> "I meant... Sigh, yeah. I like you too Kogasa."
Well, that is pretty straight foward. :V
>Whisper to Kogasa: "She also thinks you're cute and nice."
> Kogasa blushes.
> "R-Really?"
>Go back with the group to Keine.
> You start to head back to Keine, but she's already catching up to the three of you.
> "H-Hey, Daiyousei, what happened?" She asks.
>_
-
> "I made a match! ...I think!"
-
> "I made a match! ...I think!"
> "What?" Keine questions, before looking to Kogasa and Sanae. "Oh... Wait, what?"
>_
-
> Look eagerly toward the new couple.
-
>"Kogasa loves Sanae ! And Sanae also seems to like her too ! That`s soo cute !"
-
> Look eagerly toward the new couple.
> Sanae and Kogasa are hugging each other.
>"Kogasa loves Sanae ! And Sanae also seems to like her too ! That`s soo cute !"
> "Oh, that's lovely. Congratulations you two." Keine says, before turning back to you. "She was just upset earlier and wouldn't tell me why. I guess that's settled... Anyways, it's good to see you back here after so long. Is Cirno with you too, or is it just you and Sanae?"
>_
-
>"Cirno and Lily White are here, we sorta split up to look for Kogasa."
-
>"Cirno and Lily White are here, we sorta split up to look for Kogasa."
> "Oh. If you were splitting up, why didn't you go with her? I thought you two were inseparable. I guess it makes sense if you wanted to concentrate on finding Kogasa."

-
> "Yeah, I figured it would be a waste to have both of us in the same search party."
-
> "Yeah, I figured it would be a waste to have both of us in the same search party."

-
>"Ehhh, i.. dunno."

-
>Where were they headed ?
> Cirno and Lily went into the village first to ask the children, as you had decided.
>"Ehhh, i.. dunno."
> "Asking the children about Kogasa, I think."
> "The children were upset when Kogasa didn't want to spin anything on her umbrella"
>_
-
>"Wait ! You can spin stuff on your umbrella, Kogasa ? That`s so cool ! Show us please !"
-
>"Wait ! You can spin stuff on your umbrella, Kogasa ? That`s so cool ! Show us please !"
> "O-Oh." Kogasa gives you her attention. "I can, but I need something to do it with. I don't have anything with me right now..."
>
-
>Wonder what it would be like if we shrunk down and got spun on the umbrella. Would it be fun, or would it make us nauseous?
-
>Wonder what it would be like if we shrunk down and got spun on the umbrella. Would it be fun, or would it make us nauseous?
> Depending on how fast Kogasa spins you... If you had to imagine, you'd think that Kogasa would need to do it pretty fast in order to keep you spinning on it.

>Shrink and sit on her shoulder.
-
>"Aww.... and Miss Teacher Keine, look at what i can do now !"

> "Aw, that's cute." Keine smiles. "Where'd you learn how to do that?"
> Sanae and Kogasa are talking about something off to the side.

-

>"Miss Sanae did it to me, now i have this cool ability, i promised to behave though !"
> "Oh, Sanae, that makes sense. And I bet you will behave too." She smiles again.
> Kogasa moves into view in front of you with an apple in one hand, and her umbrella in the other. She places the apple on the top side of the umbrella and starts to spin it quickly. The apple keeps bouncing on the top, practically staying in one place.
>_
-
>'WOW ! That`s so cool ! You` re awesome Miss Kogasa !"
>Shrink and hop onto her umbrella.
>Is it comfortable ?
-
>Stare in amazement.
>"You're so cool..."
-
>Stare in amazement.
>"You're so cool..."
>'WOW ! That`s so cool ! You` re awesome Miss Kogasa !"
> "T-Thank you." Kogasa says.
>Shrink and hop onto her umbrella.
>Is it comfortable ?
> You are already shrunken, so you fly above her spinning umbrella and try to land on it.
> You lose your footing the instant your feet touch the umbrella, and you half-flip in the air before more of your body tries to land on the umbrella.
> Your body lands on the umbrella for a second before you're flung straight into a wall by it's speed.
> Your body aches right now, and your face hurts terribly. This may not have been very comfortable...
> "D-Daiyousei!" Kogasa stops spinning her umbrella, causing the apple to fall to the ground. "I'm sorry, are you alright?"
>_
-
>"I... I'll live... or respawn..."
-
Oh no ! I thought she had stopped spinning the umbrella !
>Damage Control Report ! (AKA, how arebwe feeling ?)

>"I... I'll live... or respawn..."
Oh no ! I thought she had stopped spinning the umbrella !
>Damage Control Report ! (AKA, how arebwe feeling ?)
> Your body was practically slapped onto a wall, so most of it aches. Your face hurts a lot. It's not too bad though. The impact could've been worse. You'll likely only hurt for a short while.
> "You should be more careful." Sanae says.
> "I'm really sorry." Kogasa bows. "I didn't mean for her to-"

If you had to fight Reimu at close range or something like that you would have a bad time because hers is far longer and she doesn't have to stand as close and could hit you several times before you are close enough to fight back. It's not even useful as a fly swatter."

She's not very happy that Cirno keeps freezing frogs, but she doesn't want to deal with her directly. It would be nice if you could convince her to tone it down a bit. Oh, and Suwako is sort of my ancestor, and I'm like a goddess too." Sanae says proudly.
>"And who is the tall lady one ?"

> "Can you make me even biggerer and smallerer?"
>"Please ...?"
> "Eh? Um... Well," Sanae gets close to you and starts to whisper. "Yes, because you helped me with Kogasa, and things turned out better than expected."
> Sanae steps away and her voice returns to it's regular volume. "But we need to do it somewhere where we can't be heard or seen well. And miracles of that size take longer to prepare."
> "Kogasaaa" You can hear some voices calling.
>_
-
>"Okay !...Huh ? Is that Cirno and Lily ?"
>Go take a look !
-
>"Okay !...Huh ? Is that Cirno and Lily ?"
>Go take a look !
> You and your group fly over to where the voice is coming from.
> Cirno and Lily are calling out for Kogasa and looking around. Soon enough, they spot you.
> "There you are. We found Kogasa!" Cirno cheers. "Wait, why were we looking for her?"
> "I don't know..." Lily says.
> "Oh" Cirno turns to you. "We did a lot too Dai-chan! We played tag with the kids, but we couldn't fly 'cuz that's cheating, but I still won! And we played some more games, but they had to go home because it was getting dark. Then we started looking for the teacher lady so she could teach me about love, but we couldn't find her. That's when I remembered that we had to find Kogasa, and told Lily."
> "Nu uh, I told you! Lily shouts.
> "No, I told you!"
> "We both remembered at the same time." Lily says.
>_
-
>"You two stop ! Everything is fine, Miss Sanae already apologized to Kogasa, and they`ll probably hang out soon !"
>Smile
-
>"You two stop ! Everything is fine, Miss Sanae already apologized to Kogasa, and they`ll probably hang out soon !"
>Smile
> "Oh, things went further?" Lily asks.
> "Surprised?" Kogasa asks, sticking her tongue out.
> "Yeah." Lily says. "I thought Sanae rejected you earlier."
> "Maybe things will be better like this... And it wasn't a rejection." Sanae says.
>_
-
>"I bet they'll even smack faces together soon!"
-
>Giggle mischievously.
-
>"I bet they'll even smack faces together soon!"
>Giggle mischievously.
> Kogasa's face flushes red.
> "W-Why is that the only thing on your mind Daiyousei?" Sanae asks.
> "Huh, I thought they would've started that already..."
> "Why would they smack faces? I thought they were friends and stuff." Cirno asks.
>_
-
>"It's what people in love do... And it's not that kind of smacking, Cirno-chan... At least I think so..."
-
>Where`s Miss Keine ? Maybe she can teach Cirno-chan the concept of love ?
-
>"It's what people in love do... And it's not that kind of smacking, Cirno-chan... At least I think so..."
> "It's not that kind..." Sanae says. "Still, you shouldn't say it like that."
>Where`s Miss Keine ? Maybe she can teach Cirno-chan the concept of love ?
> Keine was with you after you injured yourself playing on Kogasa's spinning umbrella, but had apparently left while you were resting.
>_
-
> "Miss Keine! You can teach Cirno-chan about love, right?"
-
> "Miss Keine! You can teach Cirno-chan about love, right?"
> You call out for Keine, but receive no answer.
> "Huh? Didn't you see her leave?" Sanae asks. "She left while I was helping you. I don't think she's asleep yet though, so maybe I could get her..."
> "Why don't you just ask Kogasa, Cirno? She loves Sanae, so it's the perfect person to learn from right now." Lily says.
>_
-
>Wait to see if Cirno asks, and wait for the response.
-
>Wait to see if Cirno asks, and wait for the response.
> "Kogasa, what's love like?" Cirno questions.
> "Uh..." Kogasa glances towards Sanae. "Y-You like someone a lot, and you want to be around them more. T-They also make you happier when they're around you and they mean a lot to you."
> "... Oh, I get it." Cirno says. "That means I love Letty! Does that mean I have to smack her face too?"
> "N-No Cirno, there's different kinds of love too and different ways to show affection." Sanae starts. "I love my goddesses, Kanako and Suwako, and we have great times together and they help me grow, but that's love like family. Someone that you like a lot that isn't family would be someone you'd, uh...s-smack faces with."
> "Oh, so not Letty..." Cirno says.
>_
-
> What size are we right now again?
> Point at the wall we got flung into earlier.
> "Wait, this doesn't mean I love that wall, do I?"
-
> What size are we right now again?
> You're still small right now.
> Point at the wall we got flung into earlier.
> "Wait, this doesn't mean I love that wall, do I?"
> "No, of course not." Sanae says. "You don't like the wall a lot and you wouldn't want to do that again, right? It looked painful."
>_
-
> "Good! I don't want to do that again, yeah."
> Return to normal size. No reason to stay like this now, since Teacher Lady is gone.
-
> "Good! I don't want to do that again, yeah."
> Return to normal size. No reason to stay like this now, since Teacher Lady is gone.
> You grow back to your regular size.
> "Oh, about the miracle. Have you thought of a place or way to do it without drawing much attention?" Sanae asks.
>-
-
> "Uh...could we just do it in an open field?"
-
> "Uh...could we just do it in an open field?"
> "I suppose. It's nighttime, so no one troublesome should be around, like Reimu."
> "Oh, you're trying to do something without being seen?" Cirno asks. "We should ask Sunny for help. She can make things invisible!"
>_
-
> "Can she make miracles invisible?"
-
> "Can she make miracles invisible?"
> "She can make like, anything invisible!"
>_
-
> "Wow!"
> Look to Sanae.
> "What about that?"
-
> "Wow!"
> Look to Sanae.
> "What about that?"
> "It'd be safer to do it in a field and have that as well. Where is she?"
> "Near Reimu's place, usually in one of the trees." Cirno says.
>_
-
>"Okay. So if Cirno goes to get her. And then we get a good field..."
>"Hey, how about near the lake?"
-
>"Okay. So if Cirno goes to get her. And then we get a good field..."
>"Hey, how about near the lake?"
> "That should be big enough, but it's right next to the mansion and somebody will see-..." Sanae slaps her forehead. "Yea, it'd work."
>_
-
>"That's okay, if the mansion sees. I want miss gatekeeper to get jealous, anyways!"
-
>"That's okay, if the mansion sees. I want miss gatekeeper to get jealous, anyways!"
> "What do you mean by that?" Sanae asks.
> "Should I go get her now?" Cirno asks.
>_
-
>"Yeah, meet us at the lake!"
>"C'mon Sanae, I'll show you the lake."
-
>"Yeah, meet us at the lake!"
>"C'mon Sanae, I'll show you the lake."
> "Got it!" Cirno flies off.
> "I've been there before. It's usually a bit difficult to see around there though."
>_
-
>Stand ambling toward the lake.
>"It'll be okay."
-
>Stand ambling toward the lake.
>"It'll be okay."
> "Yeah, you did say you'd behave. And you haven't let me down yet..."
> Your group walks to Misty Lake in the moonlight. The moon is almost full tonight, but it's not quite there yet.
> "I'll start preparing the miracle. It should be ready by the time Cirno comes back." Sanae says.
>_
-
>"Okay! Anything I need to do?"
-
>"Okay! Anything I need to do?"
> "Just try not to scream if it hurts again, well, i-if you can."
> Sanae starts to move her gohei around again.
>_
-
>"Check!"
>Observe the process, prepare to be miracled again!
-
>"Check!"
>Observe the process, prepare to be miracled again!
> Sanae continues to do her motions. After a few minutes, Cirno comes back with the orange fairy you threw a rock at before.
> "Here she is!" Cirno says.
> "The surprise better be worth it Cirno." The orange fairy says.
> "Of course it is. That's why I only brought you and not Luna or Star."
> "Ooh, nice."
> "Can't you go any faster Sanae?" Lily asks.
> "Yeah, but I'd need to use faith to speed it up. It'd go much quicker though..." Sanae says.
> "What are we doing exactly?" The orange fairy asks.
>_
-
>"Miracles! Cirno, you explain. I gotta be ready."
>To Sanae; "Oh, right! I'm ready!"
-
>"Miracles! Cirno, you explain. I gotta be ready."
> "Okay Dai-chan. So, Sanae can do this crazy stuff called miracles, and she's gonna use one on Daiyousei to-"
> "Who's Daiyousei?"
> "My best friend, that taller fairy. She's really cool, Sunny." Cirno points towards you. "So Sanae's gonna use a miracle, and we need you to make Daiyousei invisible so we don't get caught."
> "Wait, you idiot. My powers work better when the sun is out!" Sunny says.
> "Don't worry, you can do it right?" Cirno asks.
> "Of course I can!"
>To Sanae; "Oh, right! I'm ready!"
> "Fine, I'll speed up." Sanae closes her eyes and holds her gohei steadily with both hands. In only a few seconds, she opens her eyes.
> "Alright, here we go." Sanae points her gohei at you, and you start growing again. Your height almost reaches the top of the Scarlet Devil Mansion, the typical height you could grow to, then you continue growing.
> "W-Whoaaaa." Sunny says in awe.
> You keep going until you're twice as tall as the mansion and Sanae only reaches up to your ankle.
> "W-Wait, I didn't know I'd have to do this! She's way too big to make invisible!" Sunny shouts.
> "I thought you said you could do it?" Cirno says. It sounds a bit quieter from up here.
>_
-
>Focus! Keep going!
>Once feel feel it top out, look around.
>"Heehee. Awesome."
-
>Focus! Keep going!
>Once feel feel it top out, look around.
> It feels like it's already stopped.
> You can see the village from here, and both of the forests...
>"Heehee. Awesome."
> "How come she wears panties instead of bloomers Cirno?" Sunny asks.
> "I don't know. That's what I asked last time." Cirno says.
> "I think it's more mature that way. Maybe..." Lily says.
> "Y-You're really big now Daiyousei!" Sanae shouts. "I'm gonna do another one to make you small again, okay? We've got to hurry before someone see's, since Sunny wasn't of much help."
> "Hey!"
> Sanae holds her gohei still and presumably closes her eyes. It's hard to tell from here.
>_
-
>"Wait! I got a better idea!"
>Carefully lay down in front of the group on our stomach, resting on our elbows.
>"There! Problem solved by subtraction."
-
>"Wait! I got a better idea!"
>Carefully lay down in front of the group on our stomach, resting on our elbows.
> You lie down, but it takes a while to avoid the trees and the lake and Cirno's igloo too.
>"There! Problem solved by subtraction."
> "Well, I've got the miracle ready now." Sanae says. "Are you ready?"
> "It's not gonna hurt Dai-chan like last time, is it?" Cirno asks.
> "I hope it doesn't..."
>_
-
> "Ready! As long as it doesn't hurt, yeah."
-
> "Ready! As long as it doesn't hurt, yeah."
> Sanae points her gohei at you again. You begin to shrink like last time, until you're your original size, lying on your stomach in the grass.
> There's a long period of silence and you feel as you felt before you started this.
> "D-Does it hurt Dai-chan?" Cirno asks.
>_
-
> "I don't think so..."
> Stand up.
> Try shrinking as much as we can.
-
> "I don't think so..."
> "That's good." Cirno says.
> Sanae and Kogasa breath sighs of relief.
> Stand up.
> Try shrinking as much as we can.
> You stand up and start to shrink. You get to your regular small size, but keep thinking about shrinking more.
> When you stop shrinking, you're left at a size nearly the same as the grass. Cirno and the others look enormous, and you barely reach up past their feet.
> "Where'd she go?" Kogasa asks.
> "I think I see her." Cirno says, lying down to see you. Her face comes down to you, and it's bigger than your entire body.
>_
-
> "Whoa, you're huge!"
-
> "Whoa, you're huge!"
> "And you're really tiny." Cirno's voice booms.
> Sunny and the rest of the group lies down to try and see you.
>_
-
> "Ah!"
> Cover our ears with our hands and wince.
-
> "Ah!"
> Cover our ears with our hands and wince.
> You cover your ears to lessen the sound.
> "What's wrong?" Cirno asks. It's a similar volume to her normal voice, even while your ears are covered.
>_
-
> "That was too loud!"
-
> "That was too loud!"
> "Oh. Sorry." Cirno whispers.
>_
-
> Uncover our ears.
> "It's okay, you didn't mean it."
-
> Uncover our ears.
> You take your hands off of your ears.
> "Is this better Dai-chan?" Cirno asks.
> "W-What? What the heck...?" a voice asks from the direction of the mansion and lake.
> The others are blocking your view.
>_
-
> "Yeah, thanks. Who's that voice?"
-
> "Yeah, thanks. Who's that voice?"
> Cirno moves out of the way to allow you to see. It's the mermaid in the lake, Wakasagihime. Her jaw and eyes are wide open.
> Sanae flies over to Wakasagihime, and Kogasa follows her.
> "Hey Wakasagihime, how's it going?" Sanae asks.
> "T-That fairy, Daiyousei. She was just, gigantic..."
>_
-
> Warp right in front of the mermaid.
> "Hi!"
-
> Warp right in front of the mermaid.
> "Hi!"
> You warp to Wakasagihime. She jumps as you suddenly appear in front of her.
> "What happened to you. You were just huge, a-and now you're tiny." She asks.
>_
-
Reminder not to tell on Sanae. Don't want to get her into trouble.
> "I grew and shrank!"
-
>"Or maybe I made you all get smaller, then bigger! The world may never know."
>Glance toward SDM for a moment, have we seen any hubbub from there?
-

> "I grew and shrank!"
>"Or maybe I made you all get smaller, then bigger! The world may never know."
> "How?" She questions. "And how can you teleport?"
> "Oh, Sanae did a m-mrmph" SNae quickly covers Kogasa's mouth. "Mh, hrry Hanae"
>Glance toward SDM for a moment, have we seen any hubbub from there?
> You don't see anything out of the ordinary at the mansion from here.
>_
-
>"Neat, huh?"
-
>"Neat, huh?"
> "To be honest, it's scary..." Wakasagihime says.
> "You won't tell anyone about this, right?" Sanae asks.
> "I guess... Why is the umbrella girl with you?"
>_
-
>Go subatomic
>Does our voice sound the same, or do we sound squeakier or quieter to others due to our size...
>"It's because I made a match!"
-
>Are we close enough to poke Wakasagihime on the nose? If so, do so and go "Boop!"
>Afterward or regardless, says, "Don't worry! I triple brown betty promised to be good, so there's nothing to worry about."
-
>Go subatomic
> You shrink even more. Everyone is immeasurably large. There's a girl with a bowl on her hat here too, about your size.
> "I wished to be smaller... Not a good idea."
>Does our voice sound the same, or do we sound squeakier or quieter to others due to our size...
> You sound a bit high pitched at this size.
>"It's because I made a match!"
> "You got these two dating? Have they kissed yet?" The mermaid asks.
> "N-No..." Kogasa looks to the side.
>Are we close enough to poke Wakasagihime on the nose? If so, do so and go "Boop!"
> You boop Ren Wakasagihime. She giggles.
>Afterward or regardless, says, "Don't worry! I triple brown betty promised to be good, so there's nothing to worry about."
> "Just don't crush or eat me..." Wakasagihime says.
>_
-
> "How am I gonna eat you? You're way too big! You could probably eat me!"
-
>"Oh oh oh! You know what I could do? I could get real big, then scoop you up and a buncha water in my hands. Then we could take you places!"
-
> "How am I gonna eat you? You're way too big! You could probably eat me!"
> "You were just big though, right?"
>"Oh oh oh! You know what I could do? I could get real big, then scoop you up and a buncha water in my hands. Then we could take you places!"
> Wakasagihime's face lights up. "R-Really!? I-I mean, that's dangerous. It'd be hard to keep the water in just your hands..."
> "H-Hey, Sanae, c-could you close your eyes for a second...?[/sup] Kogasa asks. She and Sanae are further away from you and the mermaid than earlier.
>_
-
>"Yeah, I bet I could! And...hmm. That might be a problem. But if I got even bigger I could just hold it in my palm, then it couldn't slip between my fingers...hmmm..."
-
> "Only one to find out for sure, I guess."
-
>"Yeah, I bet I could! And...hmm. That might be a problem. But if I got even bigger I could just hold it in my palm, then it couldn't slip between my fingers...hmmm..."
> "That would work.........." Wakasagihime says indecisively.
> "Only one to find out for sure, I guess."
> "...Alright."
>_
-
>"Just a moment."
>Head for Sanae, surely she isn't too busy!
-
>"Just a moment."
>Head for Sanae, surely she isn't too busy!
> You fly over to Kogasa and Sanae. Sanaa's eyes are closed and Kogasa is leaning in towards her face. She stops midway, however, and backs up.
> "Can I open my eyes now?" Sanae asks.
> "Y-Yea..."
> Sanae opens her eyes. "So, what was it?"
> "N-Nothing." Kogasa looks to the side and meets you. "O-Oh, Daiyousei. Weren't you talking to the mermaid?"
>_
-
>"Yeah, and I had the best idea! What if, you made me even biggerer? Then I could scoop her up and some of the water in my hand, and take her places! That's like, even better than just being good."
-
>"Yeah, and I had the best idea! What if, you made me even biggerer? Then I could scoop her up and some of the water in my hand, and take her places! That's like, even better than just being good."
> "You're already bigger than the mansion, and that's really big. I'm pretty sure you could take out a fair chunk out of the lake." Sanae says. "And how will you stay hidden if Sunny can't hide you?"
> "I could probably do it at day." Sunny flies over with Lily and Cirno.
>_
-
>"I'm not gonna worry about being hidden, since I'm showing her around. And yeah, that's pretty big, but I need to be able to keep enough water in my palm, right?"
>Point to the center of our palm
>"That way I don't have to worry about it all leaking out my fingers."
-
>"I'm not gonna worry about being hidden, since I'm showing her around. And yeah, that's pretty big, but I need to be able to keep enough water in my palm, right?"

> "There's no way I'm making you any bigger, okay. I'm already low on faith because of those two miracles. And if you got too big, it'd be an incident." Sanae says.
>_
-
>Wonder if it's possible to localize size changes on our body, like make just our hand biggerer or smallerer.
>Get scared from what horrific effect that might have on us and stop thinking about it.
-
>Wonder if it's possible to localize size changes on our body, like make just our hand biggerer or smallerer.
>Get scared from what horrific effect that might have on us and stop thinking about it.
> You ponder increasing just a part of your body, but shiver from what might happen.

-
>"But I've been super good, and it'd help out that poor mermaid! That's the opposite of an incident, don't you think?"
-
>Wait. Can't
wackosashime the Mermaid fly?
-
>"But I've been super good, and it'd help out that poor mermaid! That's the opposite of an incident, don't you think?"
> "Can't you already get big enough to scoop out a lot of water though? It'd be too dangerous for anyone to be so big anyways. You'd destroy things without realizing it because of your size. What you have is enough."
>Wait. Can't wackosashime the Mermaid fly?
> You haven't seen her fly...
>_
-
>Grow just our eyes and use our small size to puppy-dog eye her "But... But... PLEASE!!!"

-
>Grow just our eyes and use our small size to puppy-dog eye her "But... But... PLEASE!!!"
>Have eyes explode due to the eye sockets not growing with them.
> You grow your eyes without the rest of your body.
> "No means no. And stop that, it's...dangerous."
> You get injured and can't see a thing. Eventually, you perish.
...
> You respawn back at your house. You can see that your body is just starting to fade away where you last died.

-
I think we should just try it as we are now. If it fails, then hopefully that'll convince Sanae to make us biggererer.
-
>"Well, okay. But I'm leaving talks open for later."
>"Also thanks!"
-
>"Well, okay. But I'm leaving talks open for later."
>"Also thanks!"
> "Oh, you're welcome." Sanae says. "Also, can I ride too when you start carrying Wakasagihime?"
> "U-Uh, me too." Kogasa adds.
> "I wanna ride too!" Cirno says.
>_
-
> Stroke chin thoughtfully.
> "Hmm...I might be able to arrange that..."
-
> Stroke chin thoughtfully.
> "Hmm...I might be able to arrange that..."
> "Then what are we waiting for?" Cirno says. "Let's go."
> "Uh, please be careful Daiyousei." Wakasagihime says.
>_
-
> Look at Sanae expectantly after trailing off.
-
> Look at Sanae expectantly after trailing off.
> "I already said I'm not making you any bigger than you can already get."
>_
-
> We'll see about that.
> Frown.
> "Hope this works, then."
> Land if we're flying, then grow all the way up to our new maximum size.
> Gently reach into the lake and try to lift Waggyswaggy out with enough water to keep her safe.
-
> We'll see about that.
> Frown.
> She'll eventually give in. Just like how the first time she said she wouldn't do it again. Yeah, you've got this...
> "Hope this works, then."
> Land if we're flying, then grow all the way up to our new maximum size.
> You grow to your previous max size, then grow to your new one. Wakasagihime swims back a bit.
> Gently reach into the lake and try to lift Waggyswaggy out with enough water to keep her safe.
> You slowly and delicately cup some of the lake from under the mermaid with your hands, then lift a tiny bit. After making sure that no water is seeping through your fingers, you raise it up higher.
> You are now carrying a small body of water. It looks large enough for a few people to actually swim in and dive down some. The lake is still filled with water, so nobody should notice a difference.
> Wakasagihime is shaking a lot.
> "Haaah, t-this is scary." She says. "D-Don't drop me, p-please!"
> Cirno, Lily, and Sunny fly onto one of your shoulders while Sanae and Kogasa fly up to the other.
>_
-
>Meaningful look to Sanae. "See what I meant? It's all about the geometries!"
-
>Meaningful look to Sanae. "See what I meant? It's all about the geometries!"
> "What are you talking about?" Sanae questions.
> Kogasa taps her on the shoulder and whispers something. You can't completely see them without moving your head more.
>_
-
>Get a better look. Do be mindful of the mermaid though.
-
> How thirsty are we?
-
>Get a better look. Do be mindful of the mermaid though.
> You make sure to keep the water ok and turn your head to see Kogasa and Sanae.
> You can't hear what they're saying, but you notice that something just caused both of them to blush.
> "Are we going anywhere yet?" Cirno's voice asks from your other shoulder.
> "This'll make Luna and Star so jealous!" Sunny says.
> "Just a bit more. I-I'm still getting used to this." Wakasagihime says. "Being at sea level while in the air..."
> How thirsty are we?
> You could really go for a drink right now. You don't need it, but after playing hide and seek in that cramped room then looking for Kogasa right afterwards...
> Some snacks would be good too.
>_
-
>"Isn't a great view? Bet you've never seen what a treetop look like!"
-
>"Isn't a great view? Bet you've never seen what a treetop look like!"
> "Maybe I don't need to...?" Wakasagihime says.
>_
-
>"Well, you never needed to come up and talk to people either, but you did! Go on, have a look. Just hold onto my finger if you're worried!"
>Beaming smile!
-
>"Well, you never needed to come up and talk to people either, but you did! Go on, have a look. Just hold onto my finger if you're worried!"
>Beaming smile!
> You give the mermaid a great humongous smile.
> "A-Alright." Wakasagihime makes a fist.
> The mermaid swims over to the side edge of your hands and looks down.
> "Woow...Everything looks smaller up here. Kagerou never brought me this high before. The lake is still big. And there's the bamboo forest. It doesn't even look like you could get lost in it... Thanks Daiyous-" Wakasagihime pauses when she looks up towards you. "Aww..." she whispers.
>_
-
>"It's sei, not awww. But they're close, you almost got it!"
>"So, anywhere you wanna go?"
-
>"It's sei, not awww. But they're close, you almost got it!"
>"So, anywhere you wanna go?"
> Wakasagihime continues staring for a few more seconds until she snaps out of it.
> "Oh, where I want to go? I'm not sure... Maybe Reimu's place. She's a shrine maiden, so she has a shrine, right? I wanna see how it looks."
>_
-
>"Hmmm... Well, I guess that's okay. Reimu might get a little mad because she thinks I'm being bad, so I'm gonna need you in my corner, okay?"
-
>"Hmmm... Well, I guess that's okay. Reimu might get a little mad because she thinks I'm being bad, so I'm gonna need you in my corner, okay?"
> "In your corner?"
> "Shouldn't we donate to her while we're there. Wouldn't that make her less angry?" You hear Kogasa ask.
> "Yeah, we still have to do that, remember?" Sanae says.
>_
-
>"Oh, yeah. And I mean if she gets mad, you'll be...uh...in my corner. Not hers."
>"Every who wants a ride, just hop on my shoulders!"
-
>"Oh, yeah. And I mean if she gets mad, you'll be...uh...in my corner. Not hers."
> "Oh, okay."
>"Every who wants a ride, just hop on my shoulders!"
> "We're already up here." Lily says.

>"Aye aye!"
>Head for the Hakurei Shrine! Carefully, though. Keep an eye on where we step. Size should make up more than enough for any speed lost to care, after all.

>"Aye aye!"
>Head for the Hakurei Shrine! Carefully, though. Keep an eye on where we step. Size should make up more than enough for any speed lost to care, after all.
> You start making your way to the Hakurei Shrine, slowly and carefully. When you're about halfway there, you catch sight of someone far ahead of you. They're flying slowly towards Youkai Mountain.
> "Hey, who is that? I can't see from here. Dai-chan, get closer." Cirno pats you from atop your head.
> "I don't think we should." Sanae says. "We should avoid getting seen by anyone. Just wait for them to go, then we can continue."
>_
-
>Well, we really don't wanna get in trouble.
>Reimu's gonna be furious if she finds out we can grow even bigger, so heed Sanae's advice.
-
>Well, we really don't wanna get in trouble.
>Reimu's gonna be furious if she finds out we can grow even bigger, so heed Sanae's advice.
> You wait for the figure to pass and continue to the shrine when the coast is clear.
> You reach the Hakurei Shrine. There's a girl with two horns lying lazily on the shrine's porch. She's wearing Reimu's outfit.
> "That's... Suika." Sanae says. "And judging by her clothes, Reimu's somewhere else. Good."
>_
-
>Approach!
>"Heeeeey!"
-
>"Sooo, why are you dressing up as Reimu ? Are you also a shrine maiden ?"
-
>Approach!
>"Heeeeey!"
> The girl jumps a bit, before sitting up and starting to rub her eyes. She immediately lies on her side and starts drinking out of a fruit-like bottle.
>"Sooo, why are you dressing up as Reimu ? Are you also a shrine maiden ?"
> The girl looks upwards to you, but doesn't even open her eyes.
> "Reimu'sh gone, but don't tell her I'm wearing thish." She says tiredly.
> "I'm pretty sure she'll find out anyways..." Sanae says.
> "Oh, Sanae!" The girl opens her eyes. "Are you gonna drink with me?"
> "N-No. I-"
> "You're not doing anything, right? Come on, it's booring hereee."
>_
-
> Do we drink?
> "Oh, boring is no fun! I think you should, Sanae."
-
> Do we drink?
> You sometimes drink if Cirno does. Otherwise, you rarely drink.
> "Oh, boring is no fun! I think you should, Sanae."
> "I'm alright. I have to look after you, remember?"
> "But Daiyousei said she'd behave, and she has been behaving." Lily says.
> "Reimu's place doesn't look that...grand. I expected more." Wakasagihime says from the edge of the miniature lake.
> "Y-Yea, we should get to donating." Sanae says.
>_
-
> "I'll be fine! I quintruple promised, remember?"
-
> "I'll be fine! I quintruple promised, remember?"
> "What's wrong Sanae?" Kogasa asks.
> "Oh yeah, you get drunk fast." The girl says. "That's better though."
> "I've got to be the responsible one here though." Sanae says.
>_
-
> "Hey, I can be responsible! And so can Wakasagihime."
> Look down at the mermaid in our hand.
> "Uh...right?"
-
>Wait a second, Cirno drinks?
-
>"Here, let let you get a better look."
>Kneel down so Wakasagihime can see the shrine from the front, and Suika.
>"Oh, where's Reimu at, anyways?"
-
>"And why are you using her clothes again ? Do you want to be like Reimu ?"
-
//Sorry for late replies.
>Wait a second, Cirno drinks?
> You aren't just kids, even though you act like them...and look like them...And sound- It's not often though, usually at parties.
> "Hey, I can be responsible! And so can Wakasagihime."
> Look down at the mermaid in our hand.
> "Uh...right?"
> "Yes I can...mostly..." Wakasagihime says.
>"Here, let let you get a better look."
>Kneel down so Wakasagihime can see the shrine from the front, and Suika.
>"Oh, where's Reimu at, anyways?"
> You very carefully kneel down and bring Wakasagihime lower.
> "She flew off to the mansion."
> "Was that the person we almost bumped into earlier?" Sanae asks.
> "Nu uh, she went way earlier."
>"And why are you using her clothes again ? Do you want to be like Reimu ?"
> "Why not? There's no one to stop me cuz Reimu isn't here."
>_
-
>"We could stop you!"
>"....But there's no reason to. ...Is there?"
>Looking questioningly toward Wakasagihime.
-
> Look back to Sanae.
> "See? It'll be fine. You should enjoy yourself!"
-
>"We could stop you!"
> "Yeah, I could beat you anytime!" Cirno shouts from atop your head.
>"....But there's no reason to. ...Is there?"
>Looking questioningly toward Wakasagihime.
> "Huh?" Cirno questions.
> "Well, it doesn't look like she's doing anything wrong. Just wearing Reimu's outfit." Wakasagihime says.
> Look back to Sanae.
> "See? It'll be fine. You should enjoy yourself!"
> "Yeah, just stay for a while Sanae." the girl says, approaching the shoulder Sanae and Kogasa are on.
> "I-I'd enjoy myself by not doing this..." Sanae says.
>_
-
>Do we enjoy the taste of alcohol ?
>"Hmm, if that`s what you want, are you sure ?"
-
>What's our alcohol tolerance?
-
>What's our alcohol tolerance?
> You believe it's low. Even when you do drink, you make sure not to drink a lot. You've only been drunk about once or twice.
>Do we enjoy the taste of alcohol ?
> No, but it's not outright disgusting.
>"Hmm, if that`s what you want, are you sure ?"
> "Yes. I'm okay." Sanae says.
> "Oh, I gotta show Star and Luna this." Sunny says. "Wait right here big fairy!" She flies off towards some trees near the shrine.
> "What about you?" The girl asks Kogasa. "Don't you think it's boring he-"
> "She doesn't want any either." Sanae says.
> "Aww come on, don't be like that. Here, drink some." The girl pours some of her gourd into a tall cup and hands it to Kogasa.
> "Uhh..."
>_
-
>"You don't have to drink it if you don't want it. I bet miss Mermaid could give it a home!"
-
>"You don't have to drink it if you don't want it. I bet miss Mermaid could give it a home!"
> "But she's stuck in the water." the girl says, then looks back to Kogasa. "What's wrong? Are you light like Sanae?"
> "N-No!" Kogasa says.
> "You can't force her to drink it Suika. If she doesn't want it, she doesn't wan- eh!?" Sanae looks over to see Kogasa already gulping the cup down.
>_
-
>"W-Whoa ! Slow down Miss Kogasa ! You`ll choke if you keep it like that !"
>Worrying Intensifies.
-
>"But that solved the problem!"
-
>"W-Whoa ! Slow down Miss Kogasa ! You`ll choke if you keep it like that !"
>Worrying Intensifies.
>"But that solved the problem!"
> You worry a bit about Kogasa, but at least things should be alright now.
> Kogasa finishes the cup and drops it on the ground. "T-There."
> "Are you alright Kogasa?" Sanae asks.
> "Mhm." Kogasa hugs Sanae.
> "Alright, let's go now!" Suika runs back to the shrine.
>_
-
>"Go? Where?"
-
>"Go? Where?"
> "We can party til Reimu comes back. She won't be mad. Maybe Sanae 'll be convinced too!" Suika says. "Are ya just gonna sit there or what?"
> Kogasa continues to hug Sanae.
> You can see Sunny and two other fairies flying towards you quickly with surprised looks on their faces.
>_
-
>"I don't think I can party much, since I have my hands full. Oh hey you guys!"
-
>"I'd wave, but..."
>Make a shrugging motion and lift our hands up a little bit.
>Gently, of course.
-
>"I don't think I can party much, since I have my hands full. Oh hey you guys!"

> "Whoaaaa..." The other one says.
> "I know right?" Sunny says.
> "You're no fun umbrella girl." Suika slumps. "I want Reimu to come back already."
> "I-Is it safe? Is she nice?" The one in blue asks.
> "Of course!" Cirno flies down from your head. "Daiyousei's the nicest."
> "Is she good at pranks?" the blonde haired one asks.
> "Yup. She always gets me out of trouble like, always."
>_
-
>"I'm at least like, a red belt in pranks!"
-
>"But no bad pranks that make people sad ! That`s not cool !"
>Split ourselves into Mini and Mega Daiyouseis.
-
>"I'm at least like, a red belt in pranks!"
>"But no bad pranks that make people sad ! That`s not cool !"
> "But you're really big," The one in blue flies closer to your face. "how do you not get caught?"
> "Kogasa, y-you can stop holding me..." Sanae says.
> You think you see Wakasagihime in the water waving to you.
>Split ourselves into Mini and Mega Daiyouseis.
> You split into two Daiyousei's. The small one gets swarmed by everyone else trying to get a view, while the large one is stuck carrying Wakasagihime.
>_
-
> Lean our head down close to the mermaid.
> "What's up?"
-
> Lean our head down close to the mermaid.
> "What's up?"
> The fairy in blue backs up a bit as you lean your face in.
> "Uh, could you get someone to take me inside the shrine so I can see there? I didn't want to ask aloud and risk the oni volunteering..." Wakasagihime says.
>_
-
> "Um...I don't know if anyone else is big enough..."
-
> "Um...I don't know if anyone else is big enough..."
> "Maybe Sanae can carry me. She's the other largest...but Kogasa's not letting her go..." The mermaid looks around.
> "I think Lily would be okay. She seems nice enough to be reliable." Wakasagihime points.
>_
-
>Turn to the blue fairy that`s not Cirno-chan.
>"I`m not this big normally, and i can also get small too, but i can` t now."
>Turn to Lily.
>"Do you think you can carry her, Lily ?"
-
>Turn to the blue fairy that`s not Cirno-chan.
>"I`m not this big normally, and i can also get small too, but i can` t now."
> "Oh..."
>Turn to Lily.
>"Do you think you can carry her, Lily ?"
> "The mermaid? I can try." Lily flies down to Wakasagihime and slowly tries to lift her up. She manages to do so, but she looks like she's struggling a bit.
> "I-I don't think I'm strong enough to carry her for long." Lily says.
> "That's okay. Just set me down in the shrine. I'll move around on my own." Wakasagihime says.
> Lily flies down into the shrine.
>_
-
>Observe the mermaid!
-
>Observe the mermaid!
> Lily sets her down, and you can sort of see the inside of the shrine. Reimu has a table again, but it looks similar to the one she had before.
> Wakasagihime starts to crawl around the shrine, and Lily follows her. They both go out of your view soon enough.
> Cirno, Sunny, and the blonde haired fairy are talking. The blue one heads back to the others and Cirno. They seem to be talking about love, and Cirno keeps mentioning Lily.
>_
-
> Where did Suika go?
> ...Wait, wasn't Suika one of the people mentioned that could make us bigger?
-
> Where did Suika go?
> Suika is lying on the Shrine's porch again with a less than satisfied face.
> ...Wait, wasn't Suika one of the people mentioned that could make us bigger?
> Yes. From the knowledge you've gathered in the past and witj Marisa thinking you were her for a while, the possibilities of her making you even bigger have risen.
>_
-
> Glance over at Sanae and Kogasa, then look back to Suika.
> "Hey, Suika? Can you make me bigger?"
-
> Glance over at Sanae and Kogasa, then look back to Suika.
> Kogasa is still hugging Sanae. Her head is buried into Sanae's chest.
> "Hey, Suika? Can you make me bigger?"
> "N-No!" Sanae tries to turn without disturbing Kogasa. "Getting any bigger w-
> "Sure" Suika smiles and stands up.
> The feeling in your chest doesn't change at all, but you start growing bigger anyways. You drop the portion of the lake in excitement and it splashes over the fairies and some of the ground.
> When you stop growing, you look down. There's a bunch of clouds in your way. The moon is above you in the sky, and it looks soo close.
>_
-
> Whoa...
> Can we see the ground anymore?
-
> Whoa...
> Can we see the ground anymore?
> There are clouds around your waist blocking your view, but following your legs, you can see some of the ground.
> "DAIYOUSEIII!-cough-cough." Sanae's voice yells from your shoulder. She's still on there, and she's holding on to Kogasa as well. Both of them are really tiny. Your shoulder looks big enough that they could build a small village on it. "This is way too big. You'll definitely get in trouble."
>_
-
> Lower our voice to a whisper.
> "It's okay! I just won't tell anyone!"
> Look back up into the sky and, with our non-Sanae-shoulder arm, reach for the moon, immortal smoke.
-
>Afterwards, get good sense back here and shrink to a more suitable size, remember we said we would behave and not cause trouble.
-
> Hey, we aren't doing anything wrong by standing still! It's not like we're stomping around destroying things.
-
>No need to shrink just immediately, as long as we're being good.
-
>Hmm, if you guys behave, then i guess there`s no
immediate harm, let`s hope Reimu is not nearby..... or that people can see us from the Mansion....
-
> Lower our voice to a whisper.
> "It's okay! I just won't tell anyone!"
> "There's no way no one will notice this!"
> Look back up into the sky and, with our non-Sanae-shoulder arm, reach for the moon, immortal smoke.
> You reach towards the moon, but are stopped by something. It's weird. It's like there's a wall, but there's nothing there.
> Sanae says something you couldn't hear, then faces Kogasa and holds on to her tightly.
>No need to shrink just immediately, as long as we're being good.
> You think about shrinking before anything bad happens. You'll make sure to do that if Suika doesn't shrink you back herself, but right now, you aren't doing anything bad.
>_
-
//Well, looks like we reached the Hakurei Barrier Max Height, you guys really are obsessed with getting bigger (Both on certain areas and on general size), oh well, i can`t really complain.
>Try touching said wall, careful not to hit anybody else.
>"Weird, i hit something here."

>Try touching said wall, careful not to hit anybody else.
>"Weird, i hit something here."
> You try to place your hand on the wall. There's something there, but you still can't see it.
> "Kogasa!?" Sanae shouts, then gets really close to Kogasa's face for a few seconds. "KOGASAA!!!" Sanae quickly flies off of your shoulder with Kogasa in her arms.
>_
-
> "Huh???"
> Watch them to make sure Kogasa is okay.
-
I knew something bad would happen, my shenanigan`s detector never fails !
>"Oh no ! What happened ?!?"
-
> "Huh???"
> Watch them to make sure Kogasa is okay.
I knew something bad would happen, my shenanigan`s detector never fails !
>"Oh no ! What happened ?!?"
> "Her breathing's getting shallow!" Sanae shouts back as you look down and see them pass through the clouds. You move the clouds some so you can see them. Sanae is going pretty fast, and Kogasa's eyes are closed.
> When she gets down to the Hakurei Shrine, you can see that most of those who are there look like ants. You can't tell what they're doing from here, but there's more people than before.
> A small hole opens up in front of you, similar to the one back at the bamboo forest. The lady that talked to Reimu back there comes out of it too.
> "Whew, breathing does get a bit difficult up here." She chuckles.
>_
-
> "Whoa, how'd you do that?"
-
> "Whoa, how'd you do that?"
> "It's just something I can do." The woman says cryptically. "I expected you to get this big one way or another. Even so, you still don't appear very threatening... Would you like to know what's going on down there, thanks to you?"
>_
-
> Put on a panicked look.
> "Oh no, I didn't cause trouble, did I?? I didn't mean to!"
-
> Put on a panicked look.
> "Oh no, I didn't cause trouble, did I?? I didn't mean to!"
> "You caused a small bit of trouble, but not as much as expected." She opens up a large hole.
> Inside the hole, you can see the Hakurei Shrine. Sanae is pushing down on Kogasa's chest, and kisses her occasionally. Soon, Kogasa coughs and opens her eyes, and Sanae holds her with tears in hers.
> Reimu is here, and she's flying towards Sanae. Cirno gets in her way, only to get killed a couple of seconds afterwards.
>_
-
> "...Uh oh..."
-
> "...Uh oh..."
> Before Reimu can get to Sanae, Kanako comes out of nowhere. Reimu effortlessly dodges at the last second and counters by kicking her across the field, then continues to Sanae.
> Suwako comes out of nowhere this time, and forms a bubble of water. "I know this looks bad," She starts. "But Sanae has to have a reason for-"
> "Even though she's a fairy, anyone at this size could destroy a lot and kill hundreds without effort!" Reimu barks.
> "I suppose I should go talk to her again." The woman enters the large hole and closes it, leaving you alone.
>_
-
>"Hey! Sanae didn't do it!"
>Try not to be mega-loud, but we do need Reimu to hear it.
-
>"Hey! Sanae didn't do it!"
>Try not to be mega-loud, but we do need Reimu to hear it.
> You shout towards the ground and your voice rumbles. You didn't expect it to be that loud...
> The small tiny figures stop moving for a second, then one of them comes out of nowhere and goes up to another figure.
>_
-
> "Eep!"
> Too loud! Cover our mouth with our hands!
-
> "Eep!"
> Too loud! Cover our mouth with our hands!
> You cover your mouth.
> After a few seconds, Reimu and the woman appear from another hole.
> "-is kind and innocent, but of course, this isn't a decision I'll make. Shame Suika hid from you, but that was expected too. She could've made this easier though." The woman says, before going through another hole, leaving you alone with Reimu.
> Reimu stares you down. "Why are you so obsessed with getting larger?" She snarls
> You're starting to shake involuntarily. This is the angriest you've witnessed Reimu up close...
>_
-
> "...Um...I, uh...I w-wanted to...get you a n-new table...but it was...too hard to carry..."
-
> "...Um...I, uh...I w-wanted to...get you a n-new table...but it was...too hard to carry..."
> "Really? That's the only reason?" Reimu's frown remains unchanged.
-
> "No! Uh...I got big enough to c-carry the table...but then it...w-was fun to given my friends r-rides...and b-bigger rides were b-better...like for Waka-kasagihime..."
-
> "No! Uh...I got big enough to c-carry the table...but then it...w-was fun to given my friends r-rides...and b-bigger rides were b-better...like for Waka-kasagihime..."
> Reimu stares at you for a few seconds.
> "Don't move." She says, before diving down through the clouds.
>_
-
> "R-Right!"
> We heard the angry shrine maiden. Don't move.
-
> "R-Right!"
> We heard the angry shrine maiden. Don't move.
> You do your absolute best not to move.
> After a couple of minutes, you start to shrink back to your giant size. The first thing you see is Reimu standing next to Suika.
> "There. You're not mad, right Reimu?" Suika asks.
> Reimu snatches her gourd. "You'll get this back in a week."
> "Whaaat!? No! I'm sorry, I was just being nice!"
> You can see Cirno flying back to the Hakurei Shrine.
>_
-
> Keep not moving. We weren't told it was okay to move yet!
-
> Keep not moving. We weren't told it was okay to move yet!
> "Dai-chan, are you alright? Reimu didn't do anything did she?" Cirno asks.
> "Oi, something cool was happening here right? Did I miss it?" Marisa comes flying to Reimu. "Oh, she got bigger again ze~"
> "You didn't miss much. Just another strange fairy like Cirno."
> "Is she stuck? She's not movin'." Marisa says.
> "Oh. You can go." Reimu tells you. "But if something like this happens again, I-"
> "I won't hesitate to deal with you." Marisa finishes. "Jeez Reimu, you say that every time."
>_
-
//Was getting that big really worth it, guys... :colbert:
>Are Sanae and Kogasa still here?
>And Reimu said we can move now, right?
>If both of the above are true, become normal-sized, fly over, and check if they're okay.
-
Yes, Yes it was. No regrets were had.
>"Is Sanae okay?"
-
//Was getting that big really worth it, guys... :colbert:
>Are Sanae and Kogasa still here?
> Sanae is holding Kogasa still.
>And Reimu said we can move now, right?
> Reimu gave you permission to "Go", so you should be able to.
>If both of the above are true, become normal-sized, fly over, and check if they're okay.
Yes, Yes it was. No regrets were had.
>"Is Sanae okay?"
> You shrink back to normal size and check up on Kogasa and Sanae. Cirno follows you.
> When you get closer, Sanae turns to you.
> "She's okay. Thank goodness... I know it wasn't your fault Daiyousei. You didn't mean for this to almost happen."
> Kogasa opens her eyes. "S-Sanae? What happened?... When did Reimu get a pool?" Kogasa looks towards a crater in the ground next to the shrine. There's a tiny bit of water in it.
> "Nothing you need to worry about. I love you Kogasa. And I don't want you go away." Sanae hugs Kogasa tighter.
> "Oh, those two are together now." Marisa says.
> "So they are..." Says Reimu.
> Lily and Wakasagihime are peeking out from inside the shrine.
>_
-
>"Are you okay, Kogasa?"
-
>"What happened?"
-
>"Are you okay, Kogasa?"
>"What happened?"
> "I think so. I don't really know what happened. One minute, I was drinking, the next, I was knocked out. I feel a bit out of breath and a little tired, But Sanae said she loves me, so I'm happy." Kogasa smiles.
> "Oh yeah," The three fairies appear out of thin air next to you. "is this what love is like Cirno?" Sunny asks.
> "Uh, yea!" Cirno answers. "Why were you guys invisible anyways?"
> "We were hiding from Reimu- ow." the blue one says before being hit by Sunny.
> "Shutup Star, she didn't know that yet!"
>_
-
>Hug Kogasa.
>"I'm sorry ! I should have never asked Suika to get big... you almost got hurt..."
-
>"Kids like me should locked up or something."
-
>Hug Kogasa.
>"I'm sorry ! I should have never asked Suika to get big... you almost got hurt..."
>"Kids like me should locked up or something."
> "I don't really understand, but you shouldn't be locked up Daiyousei. You're a nice fairy. If you were locked up, then how would you help people like me and Sanae?"
>_
-
>"...Oh! That's a good point!"
>"Oh, I know. Maybe I shoulda asked Suika to give me a minute to get ready. Then everything'd be fine."
-
>How are we doing ourselves ?
>"Hey ! Maybe i can try to match more people like i did with you ! Then everybody will have love on their hearts !"
>"Ehh, soo can anybody lend me some money ?"
>Wait, so what if we also become a maid in the Mansion ? Then we will be Daiyoisei: The Growing and Shrinking Perfect Fairy Maid Match Maker ! (Wow, that's a big ass title)
-
>How are we doing ourselves ?
> You feel as you did before Suika grew you. You're also a little upset that you caused trouble for Sanae and Kogasa, but both of them said it's okay.
> You could still go for some snacks and something to drink.
> You're not tired yet, but it's nighttime...
>"...Oh! That's a good point!"
>"Oh, I know. Maybe I shoulda asked Suika to give me a minute to get ready. Then everything'd be fine."
> Kogasa shrugs.
>"Hey ! Maybe i can try to match more people like i did with you ! Then everybody will have love on their hearts !"
> "Then people would be happier. I'm certainly happier. I can be with Sanae, and I feel really full from all the surprising I did today."
> "You should start matches for Cirno and Mystia and the other members." Lily flies out of the shrine. "They'd be the easiest to do since you already know them a lot!"
>"Ehh, soo can anybody lend me some money ?"
> "Huh? For what?" Kogasa asks.
> "Uh, I have a few coins from the bottom of the lake to thank you for taking me here." Wakasagihime proposes. "But, you have to come over here for it, a-ahaha..."
>Wait, so what if we also become a maid in the Mansion ? Then we will be Daiyoisei: The Growing and Shrinking Perfect Fairy Maid Match Maker ! (Wow, that's a big ass title)

> You're obviously the best choice for Cirno. There's no one that would fit better. You've been with her through everything and are the closest to her. The two of you have even survived one forgetting about the other!
>Work on a match for Mystia.
> Mystia usually acts differently when she's serving her customers, compared to when she's with Team ⑨. You currently don't know anyone that could pair with her, besides one of Team ⑨.

>Go acept the coins from Wakasagihime."Thank you ! Phew i'm thirsty, is there anything i can drink here ?"

-
Any reason we shouldn't throw them all in? Not like faeries care about money.
-
Well, what would we really need to buy anyways ? I don`t think this amount would get any beds for Team (9). I say put them all there, ring the bell and do the other stance that i forgot.
-
>Dump 'em all in!
-
>Dump 'em all in!
> You drop all of the coins into the donation box. They make a distinct sound as the hit the bottom.
> Reimu flies over to you after a few seconds.
> "Hey Reimu, you weren't done explaining what happened." Marisa shouts.
> Reimu sports a confused face as she checks the box, but when she looks towards you, she gives you her usual frown.
> "Are you trying to get me to forget what you did?"
>_
-
>"Huh ? Why would i want that ? Everything`s okay now right ? I just think this is the right thing to do, you spend a lot of time helping everyone out even though not the right way sometimes, but you get so little in return..."

> "Where did you even get this money? This is a prank, isn't it?" Reimu questions.
> "Aww, Dai-chan. We could've gotten some candy with that." Cirno says. "Reimu already has her own candy and she doesn't even share it."
> "That's because you don't deserve any." Reimu shouts at Cirno.
> "See?"
>_
-
>"That because we can play and have fun all the time, Reimu is a pretty busy and important person here, remember how Miss Sanae complimented Miss Reimu on how she beat her and her goddesses ? And what Miss Marisa told us ?"
-

> "Oh yeah...catch her at a good time or donate..." Cirno says to herself.
> You notice that Reimu's not frowning anymore. She isn't smiling either though...
> Reimu sighs. "Thank you for donating to the Hakurei Shrine. Please come again."

-
>"You're welcome! Is there a prize? Like new socks or a head pat?"
-
>"You're welcome! Is there a prize? Like new socks or a head pat?"
> Reimu pats your head. "Maybe I have been too serious recently..."
> You can see Marisa giving you a thumbs up far behind Reimu.
> "I've got the water Daiyousei!" Wakasagihime crawls out from the shrine with a cup of water in hand.
>_
-
>"Thanks!"
>Go get it, so she doesn't have to drag herself all the way to us, and have a drink.
>"Is it okay for you to be out of water like this? You're not gonna start flopping around, are you?"
-
>"Thanks!"
>Go get it, so she doesn't have to drag herself all the way to us, and have a drink.
>"Is it okay for you to be out of water like this? You're not gonna start flopping around, are you?"
> You grab the glass of water and drink some. It's refreshing.
> "I-I'm, not going to flop around. I don't need to be in water......f-for a while." Wakasagihime looks away.
> "But I'd still want to get back to the lake soon..."
>_
-
>"No problem, I'll carry you back once we're done here!"
-
>"No problem, I'll carry you back once we're done here!"
> "Thank you. You're really nice you know." Wakasagihime smiles.
> "Hey," Sanae walks up with Kogasa. "We're heading back to my shrine because it's late. Aren't your friends still there?"
>_
-
>"I`ll get there as soon as i bring Wakasagihime back to the lake !"

>Grow just enough to be able to carry her without any problems.
>Pick up Wakasagihime.
> You grow to your original large size; near tree level and someone normal would reach to your knees.
> You pick Wakasagihime up with both hands. Her tail feels very smooth.
> You are now carrying Wakasagihime, the mermaid living in Misty Lake. She's blushing a bit.
>Add to inventory.
> You stuff Wakasagihime in your pockets.
>_
-
> ...Actually, could she fit in one of our pockets?
-
> ...Actually, could she fit in one of our pockets?

-
> "Hey, wanna ride in my pocket instead? You might feel more secure."
> "Y-Your pocket!? Uh... okay." Wakasagihime holds up her arms.

-
> Gently place Waggyswaggy in a secure pocket.
> You lift up the mermaid and gently set her into your pocket.
> "S-Somehow this feels like it'd be more embarrassing..." She mumbles.
> "I'll be back another time guys!" Cirno shouts to the three fairies, before flying into your other pocket. "Okay, let's go."
> "You just let her come without asking, Daiyousei?" Wakasagihime asks you.
> "Of course, we're always go everywhere together!" Cirno says.
>_
-
>"Yea ! Okay, let`s go ! I`ll see you guys at Miss Sanae`s Shrine !"
>Fly to the lake.
-
>"Yea ! Okay, let`s go ! I`ll see you guys at Miss Sanae`s Shrine !"
>Fly to the lake.
> "See you later Daiyousei." Sanae yells. She and Kogasa are holding hands.
> "By the way Sanae, why are you and the umbrella so close now?" Reimu asks.
> "Because there's a lovely girl in the way." Sanae says, looking towards Kogasa.
> Kogasa blushes.
> "Explain it better please." Marisa asks.
> You start flying towards Misty Lake. However, as you get to the forest, someone flies right into you. It's the doll girl.
> "Ow, what the heck was that?" She looks up. "Y-You!" She quickly backs up and brings a doll to her side. It's holding an axe.
> "Testing: Level Titania!" She shouts, and the doll gets as large as you.
>_
-
>"Whoa! Hey! Take it easy! We don't want any trouble!"
>Prepare to dodge if the giant doll rushes us.
>What is the biggest object we can warp?
-
>"I got a passenger here!"

>"Whoa! Hey! Take it easy! We don't want any trouble!"
>Prepare to dodge if the giant doll rushes us.
>"I got a passenger here!"
> "You're that giant that showed up recently. I was just coming to stop you, and you just made it easier!"
> She seems to be ignoring you.
> The doll flies towards you with it's axe. You dodge it before it can swing.
> Wakasagihime is hiding deeper in your pocket.
>What is the biggest object we can warp?
> You aren't sure of your limit, but you've warped both Lily and Rumia at once with you before.
> Are we max size yet, or just our original max size from the first time around?
> You are your first enlarged size.

-
>Say Nazgulsei`s Dialogue before this one:"If i did, Miss Marisa and Miss Reimu would have stopped me !"
>"And i have friends here, please stop !"
>If she continues to attack, dodge and try to put Cirno-chan and Wakasagihime on the ground for safety, then shrink back.
-
>"Giant? I'm a fairy, not a giant! And I haven't done anything wrong. I've behaved!"
>How close to the ground are we?
>If it rushes us again, and the ground is in warping range, dodge and/or warp its axe directly into the ground. Then do what Raf wants.
>If the ground is not in warp range, warp the axe as far away as possible, but don't let it fall on anyone. Then do what Raf wants.
-
>"Giant? I'm-"
> The doll takes you by surprise by immediately slashing it's axe from it's current position when it missed you. You dodge at the last second, and it just grazes your clothes.
> You fly a bit further away from her.
>"I'm a fairy, not a giant! And I haven't done anything wrong. I've behaved!"
>Say Nazgulsei`s Dialogue before this one:"If i did, Miss Marisa and Miss Reimu would have stopped me !"
>"And i have friends here, please stop !"
> I'm not going to let my guard down! Testing: Level Titania!" The girl summons another doll, and it grows to the same size. This one doesn't have a weapon.
>How close to the ground are we?
> You're near the top of the trees at the Forest of Magic. Warping the axe down there should be doable.
>If it rushes us again, and the ground is in warping range, dodge and/or warp its axe directly into the ground. Then do what Raf wants.
>If the ground is not in warp range, warp the axe as far away as possible, but don't let it fall on anyone. Then do what Raf wants.
>If she continues to attack, dodge and try to put Cirno-chan and Wakasagihime on the ground for safety, then shrink back.
> The dolls aren't attacking, but they're moving to another position around you. The weaponless doll starts to point it's open palms out towards you, while the axe wielding one gets above you.
>_
-
>"Please ! Stop !"
>Warp the axe on the ground as said before and be careful of any moves for the Doll that will probably fire Danmaku.
>Can we warp our friends to safety ? If so do it.
>Then after that is done, shrink to both show that we`re no harm and to hide if the need arises.
-
>"Please ! Stop !"
>Warp the axe on the ground as said before and be careful of any moves for the Doll that will probably fire Danmaku.
> You warp the doll's axe out of it's hands and into the ground. The doll itself looks very surprise, but soon pulls out a sword.
> You turn to get ready to dodge any of the other doll's fire, but a laser is already being manifested towards you. You try to dodge, but it still hits your left arm. Your whole arm burns.
>Can we warp our friends to safety ? If so do it.
> You grab Cirno and Wakasagihime and warp them close to the ground. Wakasagihime hits the ground softly, but Cirno floats down and continues watching the fight. The mermaid then hides behind the ice fairy.
>Then after that is done, shrink to both show that we`re no harm and to hide if the need arises.
> You shrink to show that you don't want to fight, but the now sword wielding doll takes the opportunity to attack. It misses completely.
> "That was a bit sloppy Shanghai." She whispers. "Hourai!" she calls, and the doll starts to visibly charge another laser.

>if the sword doll attacks first. Warp it's sword into a tree in a manner where it is irretrievable.
> The sword doll does a thrust towards you, and you warp it's sword into a nearby tree. The doll stops in place, and looks towards the girl.
> "GET OUT OF THE WAY SHANGHAI!!!" She shouts.
> The other doll's hands start to glow

> You try to start warping the laser, but you reconsider quickly. Can you really warp something that manifests instantly?
> You warp Shanghai out of the way first, but find yourself moved as well. As you look back, you notice that the doll she called Shanghai is holding onto you.
> The other doll fires a large laser towards where you last were, missing the two of you completely.
> The girl breathes a sigh of relief. "Shanghai, don't you dare be reckless like that again! Now move or you'll get hurt." As she says this, the other doll charges another laser.
> Shanghai releases you and gets in what would be the laser's path.
> "What are you doing?" the girl questions.
>Can we tell where the person giving orders was?
> She is a bit away from the laser doll.

> You manage to endure the pain for now.
>"I don't wanna fight, okay! You win! I got people to take home and stuff, we can fight later!"
> Shanghai nods as you finish what you're saying.
> "Huh?" The girl questions from afar.
> The other doll starts to try and circle around the one guarding you while still charging it's laser. It looks back to the girl and shakes it's head towards her.
> "R-Right."
>_
-
>"So cut it out! You got my arm!"
-
>"So cut it out! You got my arm!"
> "You aren't going to trick me. I won't be soft like those times before. Shanghai." She does motions with her hands.
> "S-Shan-" The doll guarding you starts to say something before it's returned to it's small size, and retracted back to the girl. It vanishes behind her, and she summons 10 small, weaponless dolls. 5 of them quickly fly far from you, but cover you from multiple angles and start to charge their own lasers. The other 5 start flying directly towards you.
> "Get ready Hourai."
> The remaining large doll continues preparing it's laser.
>_
-
>Warp behind Hourai.
>Shrink to our old maximum small size.
>Does Hourai have a hair ribbon?

>If not, grab onto Hourai's hair instead.
-
>Warp behind Hourai.
>Shrink to our old maximum small size.
>Does Hourai have a hair ribbon?
>If so, grab and hold onto it.
> You warp behind Hourai, re-grow to your 1st stage, and hold onto the doll's hair ribbon. This causes her to fire her laser, but it dissipates quickly.
> The other dolls fire their lasers at your last position and miss. They return to the girl and vanish.
> Hourai starts to flail her hands around wildly. She can't grab you from here though.
> "Hourai, calm down!"
> The dolls that were flying towards you stop and start flying towards your new position.
>_
-
>Now let's go stage 2 huge, and hug the crap out of this doll.
>"Calm down, I'm not gonna hurt you."
-

>Warp the five dolls farther back, to give more time for the hug strategy,
> You warp the other dolls a bit further away.
>Now let's go stage 2 huge, and hug the crap out of this doll.
>"Calm down, I'm not gonna hurt you."
> You grow even larger. Hourai barely reaches up to your waist now, and you hug her.
> The doll flails even more.
> "Hugging?" The girl questions, before she retracts the dolls who were flying towards you. "T-Testing: Goliath Doll!"
> ...
> "H-Hourai, do it!"
> "RaiRaiRai!" The doll shouts, still waving her arms.
>_
-
>Keep it hugged!
>"You're so soft, you know that?"
-
>Keep it hugged!
>"You're so soft, you know that?"
> Along with flailing it's arms, the doll starts kicking it's legs about like a child throwing a tantrum.
> "What are you doing Hourai?"
>_
-
>[HUGGING INTENSIFIES]
>Is our arm hurting even more due to us hugging this doll?
>How adorably is the doll acting right now?

-
>[HUGGING INTENSIFIES]
>Is our arm hurting even more due to us hugging this doll?
> You can bear the pain better at this size, so it's not too bad now.
>"Bein' snuggled! That's what dolls are for, right?"
>How adorably is the doll acting right now?
> The doll is acting like a kid being embarrassed by their mother. It's very adorable.
> "RAIRAIRAIRAIRAIRAIRAIII!" The doll shouts, and gets very frantic with it's flailing.
> "Listen Hourai!"
>_
-
>What are those other five dolls doing?
-
>What are those other five dolls doing?
> The girl already brought the dolls back to her, and they have vanished. She seems to still be trying to order the doll you're hugging to do something.

-
>Kiss the doll on the forehead.
>"Can i take her home ? Pleaseeeeee ? She's so cute !"
>Keep hugging and pet the doll.
> You say this line and then gently kiss the doll's forehead. It stops flailing and starts to blush, then turns it's head away from you and towards the ground.
> "Hourai...Hourai...." It says.
> "Y-You've been... embarrassed!?" The girl questions in surprise. "S-Shanghai, just get her out of there." She brings out the other doll.
> It turns right back around to the girl. "Shanghai Shang. Shanghai Shanghai Shang." The doll tells the girl, occasionally pointing to where you set Wakasagihime and Cirno.
>_
-
>"Those are my friends ! Don`t hurt them please !"
>"Hey, do you want me to stop ? I don`t mind."
-
>"Those are my friends ! Don`t hurt them please !"
> The girl looks towards you. "O-Oh!" Her face gets red. "I misunderstood the situation."
>"Hey, do you want me to stop ? I don`t mind."
> The doll doesn't respond.
> "Hourai, are you okay? This was all just a misunderstanding. She's not bad. Uh, could you release her?" The girl asks.
>_
-
>"Sure ! Just a minute !"
>Pet her some more then let go.
>"I`m glad everything is over ! So who are you Miss Doll Lady ?"
-
>"Sure ! Just a minute !"
>Pet her some more then let go.
> You pat the doll's head a bit more, then release her. She shrinks back to her regular size and flies back to the girl. The other doll smiles at it, but it just looks the other way.
>"I`m glad everything is over ! So who are you Miss Doll Lady ?"
> "I'm Alice Margatroid." the girl approaches. "When I saw that massive thing at the Hakurei Shrine, I thought there was trouble, so I got my stuff and started flying there immediately."
> "Hey." Cirno flies up to you. "Did you beat Alice, Dai-chan?"
>_
-
>Are we at normal size ? If so go back to it.
>Turn to Cirno-chan: "No, i just got her to stop trying to hit me."Turn back to Alice: "And i`m Daiyousei, i can get small too ! Look !"
>Shrink and sit on Alice`s perfect hands.
-
>Are we at normal size ? If so go back to it.
>Turn to Cirno-chan: "No, i just got her to stop trying to hit me."Turn back to Alice: "And i`m Daiyousei, i can get small too ! Look !"
>Shrink and sit on Alice`s perfect hands.
> You shrink back to normal size.
> Then you shrink to a smaller size and fly down to Alice's hands. They're smooth. Hourai backs away from you when you get closer however.
> "Ah, so you can... Come with me." Alice flies to the ground and into the Forest of Magic. Cirno follows you, and you pass by Wakasagihime on the ground, waving to you.
>_
-
>"Wait! I need to take her home, first! Then I can come with you."
>"How'd you do that thing with your dolls, though? That seems handy."
-
>"Wait! I need to take her home, first! Then I can come with you."
>"How'd you do that thing with your dolls, though? That seems handy."
> "Oh, the mermaid."
> "I've been practicing it for a while now. So far, only Shanghai and Hourai are capable of getting to the Goliath Doll stage without trouble. The others will explode after a minute. I started it with the intention of fighting off larger threats, but they're still not near completion." She sighs, and Shanghai comforts her.
>_
-
>Examine Shanghai
>Examine Hourai
>Toss a master ball at Hourai.
-
>"Why do they explode?"
-
>Examine Shanghai
> You look at the doll named Shanghai. She looks almost exactly like Alice, albeit doll sized. There are two distinct differences between them though. Alice wears a hairband, while Shanghai wears a bow. Alice also wears a tie, while Shanghai's is a bowtie. She smiles as you look at her.
>Examine Hourai
> You look at the doll named Hourai, but it tries to avoid your gaze. Hourai's outfit is similar to Shanghai's, but is red where hers is blue, and is black where hers is white.
>Toss a master ball at Hourai.
> You toss a master ball at Hourai and it gets sucked inside. You've caught Hourai!
>"Why do they explode?"
> "Most of them are filled with gunpowder. I remove Shanghai and Hourai's however..."
>_
-
>Did we really embarrass Hourai that much?
>Do we know what gunpowder is?
-
>"Does it work on other things not filled with gunpowder?"
-
>Did we really embarrass Hourai that much?
> You think you did. You did grab her ribbon while she couldn't reach you, tease and compliment her, and even hug and kiss her. The only thing you probably could've done worse is kiss her while small...
>Do we know what gunpowder is?
> It's a mixture of other stuff that results in an explosive powder. It's used in firearms, which are things called guns that vary in size and shape, but shoot bullets more dangerous than danmaku. Keine never showed you guys how they looked, and you forgot the other stuff that made up the powder.
>"Does it work on other things not filled with gunpowder?"
> "Exploding them, or enlarging them?" she questions.
>_
-
>"Enlarging"
>"Also, why are they even filled with gunpowder in the first place?"
-
>"That sounds like a recipe for bad fire safety."
-
>"Why do you even need those explosives, axes, swords and stuff? If you want to fight, isn't there danmaku for that?"
-
>"Enlarging"
> "No, they don't need gunpowder for me to make them larger. I increase the amount of magic I'm using for them. Shanghai and Hourai can reach Level Titania on their own, but I have to add more to make them larger than that."
>"Also, why are they even filled with gunpowder in the first place?"
> "I sometimes desire to use the dolls as explosives. If you saw a doll coming towards you, you wouldn't expect it to explode, would you?"
>"That sounds like a recipe for bad fire safety."
> "It is. Fighting in areas where the temperature can get high would force me to use only Shanghai and Hourai."
>"Why do you even need those explosives, axes, swords and stuff? If you want to fight, isn't there danmaku for that?"
> "I prefer a more tactical approach than just using danmaku. Being very skilled with handling dolls, I can spread them out into multiple positions for a better attack than one person alone could manage."

> "What about Waggysaggy? Who's gonna carry her?" Cirno asks.
> "It's Wakasagihime! It's not that hard to say if you just try a little!"
> "I got it." Alice sends a few dolls towards the mermaid, and they lift and carry her in the air.
>"Hey, why do they talk using their own names ? Can`t they say anything else ? It`s hard to understand them."

> Limbs have been lost before, but it's right there. Why won't it move? Why can't you feel anything!? This sort of thing hasn't happened before!!
> You start to freak out.
> Both Shanghai and Hourai look worriedly at you.
>Panic
>Grab Hourai, use her as a comfort doll.
> You panic and grab Hourai to try and comfort yourself. She struggles against your grasp.
>No, grab Shanghai, let Hourai rest a little.
> You redecide and grab hold of Shanghai instead. She holds you back to try and comfort you.
>NO! HOURAI IS OBVIOUSLY THE CUTER ONE!
>Fuck it. Grab both of them.
> You then (barely) grab both of the dolls with your tiny arm.
>TWO CAN PLAY THAT GAME !
>Fuse the two dolls together to make a Super Cute Doll, also grab Alice too.
> You fuse the two dolls and create Shangri la. You hug it and Alice with your one arm.

>"I-I mean I lost limbs before... B-But this time it's right there! W-Why can't I feel or move it!"
>Grab our limp arm in panic, and shake it, trying to move it.
-
>"I-I mean I lost limbs before... B-But this time it's right there! W-Why can't I feel or move it!"
> "It must be paralyzed or something..." Wakasagihime says.
> "But it's there. Dai-chan should be able to move it if it's still there." Cirno says.
>Grab our limp arm in panic, and shake it, trying to move it.
> You manage to shake your limp arm with your other arm. But you still can't move it on it's own.
> "Hold still Daiyousei, and close your eyes." Alice says.
>_
-
>Do as she said.
>"Can i keep one doll without gunpowder, please ?"
-
>Try to keep calm while doing so...
>After raf's thing: Point to Hourai.
-
>Do as she said.
>"Can i keep one doll without gunpowder, please ?"
>Try to keep calm while doing so...
>After raf's thing: Point to Hourai.
> You calm down a bit and point to where Hourai was with your good arm.
> "No. And, forgive me for this. I promise it'll be quick." You hear Alice say.
> "Hey wait," Cirno's voice says. "What ar-"
> You feel a stinging sensation, but it lasts for less than a second.
>_
-
>"What just happened?"
>Check our arm. Can we feel it? Can we move it?
>Examine arm.
-
>"Then can i keep a regular doll ?"
>Don`t pass out if we don`t see our arm anymore.
-
>"What just happened?"
>Check our arm. Can we feel it? Can we move it?
>Examine arm.
> You ask what happened and receive no response.
> First opening your eyes, you look at your arm and examine it. It looks normal now. You can move it too.
>"Then can I-"
> You look up and start to ask a question, but are surprised to see a door instead.
>_
-
>Where are we?
>Look around.
>"Cirno? Alice? Wackosashime?"
-
>Carefully open the door.
-
>"Buh?"
-
>Where are we?
>Look around.
>"Cirno? Alice? Wackosashime?"
>"Buh?"
> You look around and call out for the others. There's no response.
> You're inside somewhere. There's blankets on the ground and drawings on a wall. Ah, you're at your tree house.
> What stands out from the rest though, is that the table Kanako gave you to give to Reimu that she actually didn't need is here. It has stickers promoting the Moriya Shrine.
>Carefully open the door.
> You carefully open the door. It's the unmistakable appearance of Misty Lake.

-
>She... SHE KILLED US!
>Try to fly back to where we last were, warping to cut the distance if necessary.
>Do we have any gaps in our memory due to dying?
>How far from where we last were are we?
>Hope everyone's still there.
-
>If we're looking for speed, rather than fly, just go huge.
-
>She... SHE KILLED US!
> How could she!? You thought she was going to make it better, but... She treated you like a fairy. Like you were unequal to her!
>Try to fly back to where we last were, warping to cut the distance if necessary.
>If we're looking for speed, rather than fly, just go huge.
> You leave your house and grow to your maximum size in order to get there faster, warping as well.
>Do we have any gaps in our memory due to dying?
> You remember almost everything. You don't remember what Wakasagihime or Cirno were doing right before you died however. You do remember that Alice asked you to forgive her in advance, but, still...
>How far from where we last were are we?
>Hope everyone's still there.
> The Forest of Magic isn't that far from Misty Lake, so you manage to get there quickly.
> When you reach the Forest However, the only distinct things you can spot are the trees and two houses. You may be too big to see past the trees.
>_
-
>Shrink to normal size and search around for our friends.
>"Hello ?!? Are you guys still here ?"
-
>Our voice is booming when huge, right?
>How much time passes between dying and respawning, typically?
>Put our hands to our mouth, "CIRNO-CHAN!!! WAKA... WOOKA... WACKOSASHIME!?! ARE YOU STILL HERE!?!"
>After this, do Raf's thing.
-
>Our voice is booming when huge, right?
> It sounds really loud when you speak while huge, but when you shout, it's booming loud.
>How much time passes between dying and respawning, typically?
> Usually less than a minute.
>Put our hands to our mouth, "CIRNO-CHAN!!! WAKA... WOOKA... WACKOSASHIME!?! ARE YOU STILL HERE!?!"
>After this, do Raf's thing.
> Your voice echoes.
>Shrink to normal size and search around for our friends.
>"Hello ?!? Are you guys still here ?"
> You shrink down and enter the forest, looking for your friends.
> "Dai-chan! Over here!" You hear Cirno's voice come from one direction.
>_
-
>To
senpai Cirno-chan!
-
>"What happened ?"
-
>"What happened ?"
>SOMEBODY SET UP US THE BOMB!
-
>To senpai Cirno-chan!
> You follow the voice past a few trees and find Cirno. Wakasagihime and Alice are a bit behind her, heading towards one of the houses you saw.
> "You're back!" Cirno cheers.
>"What happened ?"
> "I thought that if I did...that, you would come back with your arm healed. It worked, didn't it?" Alice says.
> "S-Shanghai." Shanghai says from behind Alice.
>SOMEBODY SET UP US THE BOMB!
> What Yousei!?
>_
-
>"But... D-Did you really have to kill me?"
>Frown
-
>"But... D-Did you really have to kill me to do that?"
>Frown
> "Hourai Hourai."
> "Yes, that could've worked too, but-"
> "Hourai. Rai Rai!" The doll shouts at Alice
> "Y-You're right..." Alice says, looking depressed.
> "Shang Shang." Shanghai floats to Hourai and starts talking to it. The other doll just turns around.
> "I still don't understand them..." Wakasagihime says.
>_
-
>Hands on hips action!
>"That was really super omega rude!"
-
>Hands on hips action!
>"That was really super omega rude!"
> "Hourai Hourai!" The doll shouts at Alice again.
> Shanghai covers her mouth in surprise.
> "I know I am..." Alice slumps over and starts walking to the house alone. The other dolls stop carrying Wakasagihime and return to Alice.
>_
-
>"Huh...? Where are you going?"
-
> Look at Hourai with a look of mild shock.
-
>"What did you say, Hourai ?"
>"Hourai Hou Shanghai ?"
-
"Hey, are you okay Miss Waki?"
-
>"Huh...? Where are you going?"
> "Home..." Alice says.
> "Rai Hourai Rai!"
> Alice jolts for a second, then starts running to the house.
> "Shanghai Shanghai!" The other doll shouts at Hourai, before flying after Alice.
> Look at Hourai with a look of mild shock.
>"What did you say, Hourai ?"
> Hourai just turns away from you.
> "She said something about Marisa that time." Cirno says.
> "What? How do you know?" Wakasagihime asks.
> "I get to be around Alice and her dolls some since she hangs around Marisa a lot. And you start to understand what they say after a while."
> "So what did she say?" the mermaid asks.
> "I don't know. Just something involving Marisa." Cirno shrugs. "
"Hey, are you okay Miss Waki?"
> "Yes. Though I'd like to go home soon. And it's not that hard to say Wakasagihime..."
>_
-
>"WookieeSagume, like that?"
>Should we go after Alice? I mean, even though we reprimanded her for killing us, she shouldn't be feeling this bad about it...
>Wonder if we could use our matchmaking skills on Alice and Marisa.
-
>To Cirno: "Alice is really bad about this apology thing!"
-
>"WookieSagume, like that?"
> Wakasagihime pouts.
>Should we go after Alice? I mean, even though we reprimanded her for killing us, she shouldn't be feeling this bad about it...
> You ponder going to Alice to try and cheer her up. It seems she was fine and apologetic until Hourai started shouting at her.
>Wonder if we could use our matchmaking skills on Alice and Marisa.
> You wonder if Alice has feelings for Marisa. If you bring them together, maybe they'll be as happy as Kogasa and Sanae.
> Alice reaches the door before Shanghai, and shuts it before the doll can enter as well.
>To Cirno: "Alice is really bad about this apology thing!"
> "Yeah." Cirno agrees.
> "No, it was that doll's fault." Wakasagihime says. "You should be ashamed of yourself."
> "Hourai!" the doll shouts at the mermaid.
>_
-
>"Aw... Shanghai got left outside!"
>"Should we check if Alice is okay...?"
-
>"So Hourai, is it true ? Does Alice feel something for Marisa ? Please nod or shake your head."
>Go get Shanghai.
-
>"Aw... Shanghai got left outside!"
> Shanghai starts to lightly knock on the door.
> " J-Just leave me alone for a few minutes Shanghai." you hear Alice between what sounds like sobbing.
> Shanghai floats down and sits against the door.
>"Should we check if Alice is okay...?"
> "I'm not sure what to do here..." Wakasagihime says.
>"So Hourai, is it true ? Does Alice feel something for Marisa ? Please nod or shake your head."
> Hourai continues to ignore you.
>Go get Shanghai.
> You walk over to the house and pick Shanghai up. She looks upset.
> "Shang..."
>_
-
>Knock on the door
>"Hey Alice, are you alright? Was it something I said?"
-
>Knock on the door
>"Hey Alice, are you alright? Was it something I said?"
> "I-"
> "Hourai Hourai! Rai Rai." Hourai flies up to the door.
> The crying on the other side of the door intensifies.
> Shanghai starts to struggle in your grasp.
> "Shang Shang." She looks at you.
>_
-
>Let Shanghai go.
>"Uh."
-
>Let Shanghai go.
>"Uh."
> Shanghai pulls out a folded piece of paper and pencil. She unfolds it and starts to write something. She shows it to you after a minute.
> It reads: THIS IS WHY MARISA GOES WITH REMU MORE! YOU BABY. She seemed to have misspelled Reimu's name.
> "This...Marisa...Ugh." Cirno says. "Space the words out more!"
> Shanghai points at Hourai after a while.
>_
-
>"Is that what she said?"
>If Shanghai nods, turn to Hourai.
>"Well that was... MEAN!"
-
>"Well, maybe i should hug your and pet you even more then, right ?"
>Grab Hourai and Hug her and pet her and give her care and all that.
>"Apologize to Alice !"
-
>"Is that what she said?"
> "Shang." the doll nods.
>If Shanghai nods, turn to Hourai.
>"Well that was... MEAN!"
> The doll turns around and ignores you.
> "You can't ignore us if we're both around you!" Cirno says, and gets on the other side of Hourai.
> "Hourai." The doll closes it's eyes.
>"Well, maybe i should hug your and pet you even more then, right ?"
>Grab Hourai and Hug her and pet her and give her care and all that.
> "!" You hug the doll and start giving it affection.
> "Hourai Hourai! Hourai Rai Rai!" The doll struggles.
> Shanghai starts scribbling on the paper again.
> LET ME GO! I DON'T LIKE YOU!
> "I like you? Is that what she's saying?" Cirno questions.
> The doll starts flailing. "Hourai Hourai Rai Hourai! H-Hourai! Rai Rai!"
> Shanghai translates it again. I SAID I DON'T LIKE YOU! I-IDIOT! LET ME GO!
>_
-
>"APOLOGIZE TO MISS ALICE ! Or i`ll keep doing this for a GOOD while !"
-
I-IDIOT! LET ME GO!
>"You are such a Tsundere, Hourai!"
>"Only if you apologize to Alice for being a big meanie!"
-
>"Only if you apologize to Alice for being a big meanie!"
>"APOLOGIZE TO MISS ALICE ! Or i`ll keep doing this for a GOOD while !"
> "Hourai! Hourai Rai Rai Hourai!"
> You look over to see what Shanghai wrote and notice that she's starting to get teary eyed. NO! SHE'S A LONER WHO USES DOLLS FOR COMFORT!
>_
-
>Increase display of affection.
>"NO! STOP BEING MEAN!!"
-
>"Then maybe we should ask her to get rid of one of her dolls, maybe one with black and red clothes, i`m sure i`ll accept that doll and give a lot of love !"
>Smile and crank affection to 11 !
-
>Increase display of affection.

>"Then maybe we should ask her to get rid of one of her dolls, maybe one with black and red clothes, i`m sure i`ll accept that doll and give a lot of love !"
>Smile and crank affection to 11 !
> You start to kiss the doll on the forehead again and rub your head against it affectionately.
> "Hourai! (No!)" The doll shouts in the same way as before.
> "Hey, it's Marisa!" Cirno flies off towards a couple of trees. Marisa's riding her broom this way. She stops to talk to Cirno.
> Hourai stops for a second when she sees Marisa, then starts to flail about a lot. "RAI RAI RAI RAI RAI RAI RAIII!"
> LET ME GO LET ME GO LET ME GOOO!
> "Can we fight now? We didn't get to fight earlier." Cirno asks.
> "Sorry. I'm going to sleep. Maybe another day."
> "Aww." "Can I at least come to your house today?
> "Sorry, too dangerous. Why not ask Reimu?" They start going to the neighboring house.
> "But I'm a fairy. It should be fine!"
>_
-
>"Wait! Maybe Marisa can help us!"
>Cite MariAli as our next Matchmaking target
>Fly over to Marisa and Cirno, continue to hug the misbehaving doll.
>"Hey, Marisa, can you help us for a second?"
-
>It`s not MariAli, it`s AliSa !
>"This mean doll here hurt Alice`s feelings and now Alice is crying at home, so we need to find a way to punish her."
-
>"Also I need to take Wakasagihime home."
-
>"Wait! Maybe Marisa can help us!"
> "RAI RAI RAI RAI RAI RAI!!!" The doll shouts again.
>Cite MariAli as our next Matchmaking target
> You're gonna get Marisa and Alice together now. Ehehehe! Happiness for everyone... Schemes quietly*
>Fly over to Marisa and Cirno, continue to hug the misbehaving doll.
>"Hey, Marisa, can you help us for a second?"
> As you fly over to Marisa, Hourai starts to sniffle between her shouts.
> "Sure. What is it ze~?" Marisa turns around.
>It`s not MariAli, it`s AliSa !
>"This mean doll here hurt Alice`s feelings and now Alice is crying at home, so we need to find a way to punish her."
> "Aww, you're throwing a little tantrum Hourai? Remember that Alice is sensitive. Ya can't just say mean things, even if you are a bit cute."
> "Rai Hourai!"
> I'M NOT CUTE!
> "Just as tsun as always." Marisa laughs.
>"Also I need to take Wakasagihime home."
> "Sorry, I can't help you right now. I still haveta sleep ya know." Marisa enters the house.
> Hourai extends her hand to the door as Marisa leaves. "Hourai Hourai. Rai Hou-...Hourai..." Hourai starts to cry.
> MARISA WAIT. I'M NOT... NOT CUTE...
> "H-Hourai Hourai."
> Shanghai nods and rips up the paper, then starts to hug the other doll.
> "Why'd she rip it up?" Cirno asks.
>_
-
>"I guess Hourai doesn't want her to translate anymore?"
>"And what do you mean you're not cute, Hourai? Both you and Shanghai are adorable! Right guys?"
-
>"I guess Hourai doesn't want her to translate anymore?"
> Shanghai nods.
>"And what do you mean you're not cute, Hourai? Both you and Shanghai are adorable! Right guys?"
> "Yea!" Cirno and Wakasagihime agree.
> "Hourai Hourai Rai Hourai, Rai Hourai. (?? Marisa, Not Cute.)"
>_
-
>Listen for any explosions from the house.
-
>Listen for any explosions from the house.
> You listen for any sounds of explosions. You hear a loud one, and Marisa comes flying out of an open window on the second floor of the house. She hits a nearby tree. Said tree already has notable marks where things have impacted it near the same spot.
> Alice peeks out of her door a little.
> "G-Good. That's better than yesterday's." Marisa falls from the tree and gets up. "Eh? Why are you guys still here?"
>_
-
>"What was that ?!?!? Why did something explode and you come out flying not in a good way ? And why does it seem like you do this every day ?"
>Wait, are we learning how to understand Hourai and Shanghai ?
>"And we`re talking with Hourai and Shanghai here."
-
>"What was that ?!?!? Why did something explode and you come out flying not in a good way ? And why does it seem like you do this every day ?"
> "Don't worry about it. Just some experiments. As long as I only do a couple a day instead of spending most of the day, I'll be fine."
>Wait, are we learning how to understand Hourai and Shanghai ?
> You believe you've learned how to tell some of what they're saying based on how they say it.
>"And we`re talking with Hourai and Shanghai here."
> Hourai gets behind Shanghai.
> "Shanghai Shanghai. Shang Shanghai Shanghai."
> "Yeah, I remember. Be more careful or you'll worry Alice. And what's with Hourai now?"
> "Hor-"
> "Shanghai Shang Shanghai." Shanghai points at you. Shanghai Shanghai."
> "I understand. Reimu didn't even beat her, hehe. Of course you're exhausted Hourai."
>_
-
>"She still shouldn`t hurt Alice`s feelings like that anyway, i don`t like seeing people sad...."
>Hmmm, shrink and lie on Shanghai`s hands to rest for a while, all that demonstration of affection must have left us tired."Do you mind if i stay here, Shanghai ?"
-
>"She still shouldn`t hurt Alice`s feelings like that anyway, i don`t like seeing people sad...."
>Hmmm, shrink and lie on Shanghai`s hands to rest for a while, all that demonstration of affection must have left us tired."Do you mind if i stay here, Shanghai ?"
> "Hourai..."
> "What did she say this time?" Cirno asks.
> "She said sorry." Marisa says. "Good girl."
> In order to lie on Shanghai's hands, you would need to get to your smallest, so you do so.
> "Shanghai. (No.)" She smiles.
> Alice starts to walk towards your group. Her head is down, but you can see her blushing just a bit.
>_
-
Don't forget Alice still owes us an apology for that rude gankage before we get too sympathetic.
>Relax and observe!
-
>Think of ways to make a match successfully...
>Hmm... What worked for Kogasa and Sanae...? Let's see... Kogasa was with us... We urged her to confess.... Sanae rejected her... And we helped Sanae find her!
>Maybe if we recreate these conditions with Marisa and Alice, we will matchmake them with successfullity!
>Recline in Shanghai's hands.

> "Hourai said sorry." Marisa holds up the doll.
> "Hourai..."
> "Oh. So you know what she said..." Alice asks.
> "Nope. But it must've been mean, because if it was enough to make you cry, than I'm glad she apologized ze~."
> Alice smiles a bit.
>_
-
>"Tell her what she said!"
-
Alice can make her dolls bigger with magic, right? I'd consider it a proper apology if she did the same for us.
-
I have a plan.

:colbert: Can't we just be satisfied with our current growing and shrinking abilities for once?
-
Stop trying to get sooo big !!!!!! We`re already able to get big enough, let`s not get greedy, besides, even if we get bigger, we might hit our head on the Barrier up top.
Are you trying to get other things on us bigger ?[/sup
Tell us !
>"But she still hasn`t apologized to me for killing me that time, even if to get my arm working again...."

I will not be satisfied until Meiling is defeated. Also I have a better plan than that anyways.

> "Shanghai Shanghai Shang Shanghai Shanghai. Shang Shanghai Shanghai. Shang Shang."
> "I'm-"
> "I know you're not a loner." Marisa puts her hand on Alice's shoulder. "And I don't love Reimu, we're just friends." She smiles. "We've been great friends since we met. She's like, my rival. Even though she's still better than me at the moment..."
>"But she still hasn`t apologized to me for killing me that time, even if to get my arm working again...."
> "I-I asked you to forgive me, didn't I?" Alice says.

-
>"Well, Reimu is pretty much stronger than everyone else, she also beat Miss Sanae and her goddesses, and she did beat the people on the Mansion too, but you`re strong too, Miss Marisa !"
>Turn to Alice
>"And i forgive you, but could you please give me a doll, it doesn`t have to be like Hourai or Shanghai, just be a cute doll that looks like them, since they`re cute, and doesn`t explode."

-
>"Well, Reimu is pretty much stronger than everyone else, she also beat Miss Sanae and her goddesses, and she did beat the people on the Mansion too, but you`re strong too, Miss Marisa !"

> Shanghai hugs you back.
> "I could give you a regular doll, but it wouldn't move on it's own. Only Shanghai and Hourai move on their own. Be right back." Alice starts to go to her house.

>Call "Deal!" in her wake.

"You haven't smacked faces into each other yet!"
-
"You haven't smacked faces into each other yet!"

> "Eh?" Wakasagihime says.

-
>"Oops. I mean. Um..."
-
>"Oops. I mean. Um..."
> "Sounds like a weird thing to do anyways." Marisa says.
> Alice emerges with a doll that looks similar to Shanghai, but it's outfit is black instead of blue.
> "Here, you can have one of these." Alice holds the doll out in her hands.

-
>Accept doll.
>"Is it full of gunpowder?"
-
>"Aw, it`s so cute, just like Hourai and Shanghai !"
-
>Accept doll.
>"Is it full of gunpowder?"

>"Aw, it`s so cute, just like Hourai and Shanghai !"
> Shanghai blushes
> Marisa is still holding Hourai, and you can't see her face.
> "Hey Alice, Daiyousei says we should be smacking faces. You have any idea what that means?" Marisa asks.
> Alice's face flushes red. "S-Sounds like it would feel go- uh, hurt."
> "That's what I would think!" Marisa says.

-
>"Would it work on you, do you think?"
> "I don't know. And why would I need to make myself bigger?"
> "You could do it for just your chest!" Cirno says, and Marisa bursts out laughing.
> "Aren't you the one who needs a bigger chest?" Alice snaps. "Or do you actually like being second best to Reimu in everything?"
> Marisa lets go of Hourai and jumps closer to Alice. "Hey, yours aren't anything special either. Daiyousei's are bigger than yours."
> "That goes for you too!" Alice returns. They're so close that it's like they're trying to start a fire with their foreheads.
> "They just haven't started growing yet." Marisa says. "You on the other hand have been like that for years."
> Shanghai and Hourai just look between the two each time one throws an insult at another.

>"Oh, but you're not human, so it'll be okay if you do it on yourself, right? It'd be neater anyways, since you're the inventor."
> "F-Fine. I'll just check to see if it works." Alice starts walking home. "Won't be permanent anyways..." She mumbles.
> "Aww, you're not doing it here?" Marisa asks.
> "Of course not!"
>_
-
>"You should! It'd be awesome to see it work!"
-
>"You should! It'd be awesome to see it work!"
> Alice sighs, then closes her eyes. After a few seconds of nothing happening, she opens them.
> "Oh well, it didn't work. Guess it's only for dolls."
> "That's bogus!" Marisa shouts.
>_
-
>"Did you actually do anything? I remember there being words and stuff."
-
>"Did you actually do anything? I remember there being words and stuff."
> "That was just when I make the dolls larger. And they can do that without me saying it." Alice looks towards Shanghai.
> Shanghai increases to the size she was when you fought her.
> "Fine...But make Shanghai's breasts larger!" Marisa says.
> "S-Shanghai. S-Shang Shang Shanghai? (N-No. ??)"
> "Oh yes Alice will!" Marisa responds.
> "H-Hourai Hourai Rai..." Hourai blushes.
> "We're not going far at all!" Marisa says.
>_
-
>"Try it on Marisa, then!"
-
>"Try it on Marisa, then!"
> "Yea, I'm fine with either." Marisa says.
> After a while of Alice mumbling about her decision, Shanghai's flat chest starts to grow. The outfit starts to look tight on the doll, but it stops after awhile. They're about your size now.
> "S-Shang!" Shanghai covers herself. Hourai grows to the same size and attempts to shield her from view.
> "Heh, you look like a bustier Alice, Shanghai."
>_
-
>"Oh neat! But now you gotta see if you can make Marisa get big."
-
>"Oh neat! But now you gotta see if you can make Marisa get big."
> "I-I'm not doing that." Alice says. "Wasn't Shanghai enough?"
> "Come on. You can do it. It'll only be for a second anyways." Marisa says.
>_
-
>"I mean big everywhere, though. Not just the chest! Like I was!"
-
>"I mean big everywhere, though. Not just the chest! Like I was!"
> "I've only used it on dolls though. What if I kill her?"
> "Oh. Guess you're right there. Just do my chest then!" Marisa says.
> "Alright. Guess there's no more trying to argue out of this..."
> ...
> "Actually, I don't think it'll work on anything that aren't the dolls that I control." Alice says.
> "Why?" Cirno asks.
> "Well, I was going to do it for Marisa's...uh. Marisa's b-breasts... B-But I realized that I didn't really have a way to send magic there."
> "Ooh..." Marisa says.
>_
-
>"Oh, maybe you could try it on yourself? Oh, oh, maybe if you touched her? Or both!"
-
>"Oh, maybe you could try it on yourself? Oh, oh, maybe if you touched her? Or both!"
> "W-WHAT!?" Alice's face gets really red.
> "Maybe contact would work." Marisa says. "You use strings to do it to your dolls right?"
> "Y-Yeah, but-"
> "And since I'm not letting you pierce strings into me, we're doing it this way!" Marisa grabs Alice's hand and places it on her chest.
> Blood starts to leak out of Alice's nose.
>_
-
>"There you go! Make her taller!"
-
>"There you go! Make her taller!"
> Alice panics a bit, then closes her eyes.
> Marisa's chest starts to expand. "Aw yeah! You're doin it!" She says.
> Marisa's breasts continue to get larger and pass your size. Her dress looks tighter than Shanghai's. "H-Hey, uh, maybe you should sto-" rrrip.
>_
-
>Oh my...
-
>"It worked!"
-
>Oh my...
>"It worked!"
> Alice opens her eyes. More blood comes out of her nose, and she falls backwards. Shanghai catches her.
> Hourai darts into Marisa's house.
> "C-Cirno," Wakasagihime coughs. "You shouldn't be looking at this!"
> "Looking at what?" Cirno turns around.
>_
-
>Youkai sure are weirdos.
>"Oh, are you okay, Alice?"
-
>Youkai sure are weirdos.
>"Oh, are you okay, Alice?"
> "Ugh..." Alice starts to wake up. "What happene- M-Marisa!?" She says in surprise, glancing down occasionally.
> "Y-You did it too much ze~." Marisa covers herself.
> Wakasagihime starts to cover Cirno's eyes.
> "Hey! I can't see what's happening!" She complains.
> Hourai flies out of Marisa's house holding another one of Marisa's outfits.
> "Shanghai Shanghai Shang." Shanghai turns to you. "Shanghai Shang Shang." The doll drops Alice and quickly covers her mouth, before looking to Marisa and Alice.
> Both of them have their mouths open in surprise. As does Hourai.

-
>"Huh!? What did she say?"
-
>"Huh!? What did she say?"
> "Is what Shanghai said true Alice?" Marisa asks after a while.
> Alice looks away. "N....Y-Yes."
> "... I need time to think this through." Marisa turns around.
> "Shanghai...(Sorry...)" Shanghai tells Alice.
> "I-It's okay. She would've found out eventually..." Alice responds.
>_
-
>"I think she already found out, because it worked."
>Sage nod.
>"What're we talking about?"
-
>"I think she already found out, because it worked."
>Sage nod.
>"What're we talking about?"
> Hourai picks up the scraps of paper and writes something down on it.
> SHANGHAI SAID YOU PROBABLY SHOULD'VE The paper cuts off.
> Hourai picks up more scraps and scribbles. LET IT GO. YOU KNOW ALICE LOVES MARISA.

-
>"Oh!"
>"...You guys are all weird."
>Clear throat.
>"Still! That was a big discovery, wasn't it? I bet I messed up all the numbers you crunched!"
-
>"Oh!"

>Clear throat.
>"Still! That was a big discovery, wasn't it? I bet I messed up all the numbers you crunched!"
> Alice and Marisa don't respond.
> "This must be, cough*, serious..." Wakasagihime utters.
> "Okay Alice, I've decided!" Marisa turns around with her hands on her hips.
> Alice looks up, then blushes and quickly looks away. "Your b-breasts..."
> "I love you too." Marisa says. "And I would go out with you, but I'm already in a relationship."
> Shanghai, Hourai and Wakasagihime gasp.
>_
//Turning in now. A cliffhanger is fine too.
-
//K, waiting warmly till morning
>Gasp as well
-
>"Is it me!?"
Almost killed two birds with one stone, there.
Before we go, I wanna try a thing: We've established Alice can kinda transfer the doll enlargement spell via touch. So we ought to try the same thing with out abilities. On Alice, for maximum hilarity. (Waggyswag would be maximum, but it'd just be mean to her right now)
-
:P
//K, waiting warmly till morning
>Gasp as well
> You gasp along with the group.
>"Is it me!?"
> "With that tree." Marisa finishes, pointing to the tall and handsome tree, as you did earlier.
> There's a slightpause before Alice gets up and glomps Marisa.
> "I-I love you Marisa!"
> "Y-Yeah, I love you too, but you're getting blood on my chest."
>_
//Honestly though. Tired + Not feelin the best = :( . But it would've been a cliffhanger for me too, and I can't stand that. Anyways, night for real this time.
-
> "Okay, now kiss. I mean, if you're ready. And get a change of clothes."
>Hold up the spare Marisa outfit.
> "Hey, this is really pretty."
-
I'm laughing like hell here, you guys always surprise me ! ^^
>"I knew you two deserved each other ! You're like Miss Sanae and Miss Kogasa !"
>Prod Marisa.
>"Hey ! Change up already ! You can't stay like this."
-
Since the joke has been made at my expense a couple of times now in this game despite my not ever pursuing it*, with this recent turn off events, I guess I might as well say that I'd have no problem with asking Alice to do the same to us. (In fact, I'm irritated that Marisa apparently has it up on us now, and I think we should if only to reclaim our title.) I would understand if no one else wanted to push that, though.
* I don't have a problem with the joke being made at my expense - it's not as though I haven't earned it, and I find it amusing anyway.
-
>"I knew you two deserved each other ! You're like Miss Sanae and Miss Kogasa !"
> "Okay, now kiss. I mean, if you're ready. And get a change of clothes."
> Alice unhugs Marisa and starts to wipe her nose. "Y-Yeah, sorr-"
> Marisa lunges forward and starts to kiss Alice. When the two are done, Alice has a surprised look on her face.
> "There. Now we're even ze~."
>Prod Marisa.
>"Hey ! Change up already ! You can't stay like this."
>Hold up the spare Marisa outfit.
> "Hey, this is really pretty."
> "Oh, almost forgot." Marisa takes the outfit.
> "Wait, don't put it on yet Marisa." Alice says.
> "Why not?"
> "You'll just rip it again, won't you?"
> "Ah. R-Right."
> Shanghai's chest starts to return to it's original size.
> "Aw, they run out too?" Marisa slumps.
> "Of course they do." Alice answers. "I'm not a miracle worker. Besides, you wouldn't be able to wear any of your clothes."
> What does it take for a fairy to get a bigger chest around here!?
>_
-
Oh, well, if it's temporary, then that eliminates all concern.
(How you're feeling better today, parser.)
> "Oh, oh! Me next, me next!"
-
>"I'm a miracle worker. I worked two matches today already, because I'm the best at addition!"
Edit: I was all revved up to go the great Alice Waifu Hunt and hooking her up with Ringo or Hatate.
-
//Better than yesterday. And I woke up to cn soup.
> "Oh, oh! Me next, me next!"
> Alice looks at you for a moment. "Aren't your breasts already big enough for a fairy?"
>"I'm a miracle worker. I worked two matches today already, because I'm the best at addition!"
> "This wasn't a miracle." Marisa says, covering her front with the other dress. "I knew Alice liked me. I just didn't know it was this much."
>_
-
> Put on a thinking face, then go back to normal a couple of seconds later.
> "Please?"
-
> Put on a thinking face, then go back to normal a couple of seconds later.
> "Please?"
> Marisa's chest shrinks to it's normal size as you finish saying this.
> "Hey, how come Shanghai had hers longer?" she asks.
> "I'm more experienced with doing it to dolls. You should be grateful. Now you can change outfits." Alice says.
> Alice walks up to you and brings her hand close to your chest, but she steps back. She looks at you, then down at herself and scowls for a second.
> "Actually, you're fine. Uh......I wouldn't want to be responsible for tearing your dress too."
>_
-
> Pout.
> "Aww, come on, I just made you a match! It'll be fine. My dress can handle me getting huge, it can handle this."
-
> Pout.
> "Aww, come on, I just made you a match! It'll be fine. My dress can handle me getting huge, it can handle this."
> "Wasn't that because your entire body got huge anyways?" Marisa asks, putting on her other outfit.
> "Yes, you should be able to do it yourself."
> "But if Dai-chan does it, she'll make them too big." Cirno says. "Or can you just make yourself a little big at a time?"
>_
-
> "Uh..."
> Try growing just a little bit. To, say, Alice's height.
-
> "Uh..."
> Try growing just a little bit. To, say, Alice's height.
> You concentrate on growing, but just a tiny bit. You start to grow very slowly. Once you reach Alice's height, you think about stopping it, and it works.
> "You can!" Cirno says.
> Alice looks surprised. "I-I'm going to sleep. I'll see you in the morning Marisa. Come on Shanghai, Hourai." Alice starts walking to her house.
> "Aren't you gonna stay and see Daiyousei make her chest larger?" Marisa asks.
> "I don't need to."
>_
-
>"Wait! I wanna do something else before you go."
-
>"Wait! I wanna do something else before you go."
> Alice stops and turns around. "What is it?"
>_
-
> Return to normal size in preparation for what is about to come.
-
> Return to normal size in preparation for what is about to come.
> You return to your regular size.
>_
-
>"You can make people bigger by touching 'em and doing the thing, so I wanna see if I can do it. And you're the most trustworthy."
-
>"You can make people bigger by touching 'em and doing the thing, so I wanna see if I can do it. And you're the most trustworthy."
> "That sounds dangerous... You're a fairy, so how do you know it'll work on me?"
> "Ya gotta stop thinking things so thoroughly Alice. If you don't, you'll never get to do anything new." Marisa says.
> "Why don't you try it on Cirno first. Then there wouldn't be any consequences if something bad happens." Alice says.
> "YEAH!" Cirno shouts. "Do me Dai-chan! I wanted to get big but Sanae said no, even after she made you bigger. Come on come on come on!"
>_
-
>"You'd get too strong and we'd all be doomed, Cirno! No no, it's gotta be someone trustworthy, because I quadupple penguin promised to be good."
-
>"You'd get too strong and we'd all be doomed, Cirno! No no, it's gotta be someone trustworthy, because I quadupple penguin promised to be good."
> "But I can be trustworthy." Cirno says. "The bug thingy with Wriggle was just an accident."
> "Alright." Alice walks up, then looks back. "Shanghai, if I die, you're in charge."
> "You won't die." Marisa says.
>_
-
>"Right!"
>Walk over to Alice, take her by the shoulders, and try to focus on that connection, and try to make her bigger. About to our first limit, if we can!
-
>"Right!"
>Walk over to Alice, take her by the shoulders, and try to focus on that connection, and try to make her bigger. About to our first limit, if we can!
> You hold on to Alice and focus on the feeling in your chest, but with the intent of making Alice bigger. The feeling in your chest starts to fade some.
> "What are yo-oh. It's working." Alice says in surprise. She's slowly growing bigger and bigger.
> When she stops, she reaches the trees with her height. Alice pushes down her dress.
> "A-Alright, it worked. Now are you done?" She asks.
> You are still holding onto Alice's shoulders.
>_
-
>"Awesome! How do you feel? Okay? Amazing? Exponential?"
>Thumbs up to the rest of the group.
-
>"Awesome! How do you feel? Okay? Amazing? Exponential?"
> "Okay. It almost feels like there's something in my chest, but I'm more worried about this size. Do you even care if others see them when you're this big?" Alice whispers to you.
>Thumbs up to the rest of the group.
> You give a thumbs up to the rest of the group, and receive some back from everyone.
>_
-
>"Huh?"
>"It's not a bad feeling, right? I got that too. Don't worry about it too much, just enjoy yourself! But be good."
>Sage nod.
-
>"Huh?"
>"It's not a bad feeling, right? I got that too. Don't worry about it too much, just enjoy yourself! But be good."
>Sage nod.
> "N-No, it's not. But what do you mean enjoy myself? I already have dolls to do work required at this sort of size. I wouldn't need to be this big myself."
>_
-
>"Well, uh, it's like when you wear a costume to a party, because you don't normally wear it but you are then, so you should enjoy it! It's like that! Besides...uh...more for Marisa to love! Yeah! Can't argue with the numbers!"
-
>"Well, uh, it's like when you wear a costume to a party, because you don't normally wear it but you are then, so you should enjoy it! It's like that! Besides...uh...more for Marisa to love! Yeah! Can't argue with the numbers!"
> "Okay." Alice rests on her knees and picks up Marisa.
> "Oi, what are you gonna do Alice?" Marisa questions as she's lifted up.
> "N-Now what?" Alice whispers.
>_
-
>Whisper back. "Do what your heart says, have fun!"
-
>Whisper back. "Do what your heart says, have fun!"
> Alice looks blank for a second before she smirks, lifting Marisa up higher.
> "Pft, pumpkin panties." She chuckles.
> "H-Hey!" Marisa shouts, pushing her dress down. "There's nothing wrong with bloomers!"
> "Yeah!" Cirno agrees.
> "Just that they make you look like a child." Alice grins. "Are they really more modest or is that just an excuse for the lack of maturity?"
>_
-
>Giggle, pat her shoulder. "See, you're doin' great! You're a natural!"
-
>Giggle, pat her shoulder. "See, you're doin' great! You're a natural!"
> "W-Well what do you think Daiyousei!?" Marisa asks. "Which ones are better?"
> "Both of us have been large before, while you two are still small." Alice says. "Isn't it obvious?"
>_
-
>"Yep! Alice has it!"
-
>"Yep! Alice has it!"
> "B-Bloomers don't make you a kid." Marisa adopts a slightly upset face.
> "I'm sure they do though." Alice says.
> "Just set me down already."
> "When you admit that they're for kids."
>_
-
>Chuckle.
>Are we Alice's size? If not, get off her shoulder and get that way.
>Regardless, or afterward, go collect our poor neglected Mermaid.
-
>Chuckle.
>Are we Alice's size? If not, get off her shoulder and get that way.
> The second you let go of Alice, the feeling in your chest instantly returns to how it usually is and Alice shrinks back to her normal size.
> "E-Eh? What th-" Alice says, before Marisa falls on top of her.
> You grow to how large Alice just was.
>Regardless, or afterward, go collect our poor neglected Mermaid.
> You lift Wakasagihime. Her tail isn't as smooth as it was the last time you picked her up. It's still fairly smooth, but not nearly as much as before.
> "T-Thanks. I was beginning to feel a bit dry..." she says.
>_
-
>"Sorry about that, Miss Hime, but we needed to push into bold new frontiers!"
>Look back at Alice and Marisa. "Oh, that happened! Are you two okay?"
-
>Raf: Worry about Miniking-Parser and give moral support.
>"Oh ! Whoops ! Are you two alright ?"
>Put Wakasagihime (See !?!?! It's not that hard.) on pocket.
-
>"Sorry about that, Miss Hime, but we needed to push into bold new frontiers!"
>Look back at Alice and Marisa. "Oh, that happened! Are you two okay?"
>"Oh ! Whoops ! Are you two alright ?"
> "Yeah. Just didn't expect that." Alice says.
>Put Wakasagihime (See !?!?! It's not that hard.) on pocket.

-
>Kneel down by them and check them visually to be sure.
>"Oooo, I bet it's because I moved! Huh. ...I know, hey Miss Alice, can you teach me your trick? We can do it tomorrow if you wanna."
-
>Kneel down by them and check them visually to be sure.
>"Oooo, I bet it's because I moved! Huh. ...I know, hey Miss Alice, can you teach me your trick? We can do it tomorrow if you wanna."
> You check the duo. They seem fine and no one looks hurt.
> Alice gets up. "I doubt I can teach something like my magic to someone else. Especially if I could barely do it on something that wasn't a doll, and I've been doing this for years."
> "She's right you know." The mermaid says from your pocket.
> "Let's go already Dai-chan." Cirno yawns and flies into your other pocket. "We gotta get back to Mysti and the others after this."
>_
-
>"That's not very forward-thinking, is it? I bet I'd be real good at it, too. Oh, oh! Now that you know how getting big works, I bet you can figure out how to do it yourself now, since you're real talented and stuff!"

-
>"Oh yeah! We have to get back to them! I wonder if they found that picture box thingy cool or not..."

> ...
> "Marisa?"
> "H-Huh? What'd you say?" Marisa looks up.
> "Did you have fun?" Alice asks.
> "Uh, yeah. Hold on, I've gotta get some more mushrooms for something." Marisa gets up and starts to walk away from the houses.
> "I thought you said you were going to sleep soon?"
> "Yeah, but these ones are important." Marisa yells back.
>"Oh yea ! Bye Miss Marisa and Miss Alice ! Have a great time together and kissing ! Bye Hourai ! You're still cute ! Bye Shanghai ! You're cute too ! And make sure Hourai behaves !"

Oh man, remind me?
-
The rest of Team 9 is theoretically still there. I believe Cirno voiced a recent desire to get back in touch with them.
-
Thought they were hanging out at our place for some reason. Ah well.
>To the Shrine! Let's convert hugeness to speed. But not too hastily, of course.

>"Hello there! What're you doing? Have you seen my friends?"
> "Huh?" The girl turns around. "G-Gyah!" She jumps, and starts to hold her chest.
> "Hah, w-wait..." She picks up the paper and does a double take between it and you. "You're that big creature." A huge smirk comes across her face.
> "Hey, mind if I ask you a few questions?" She pulls out a small yellow rectangular thing. It has a small heart on one side.
>_
-
>"Okay, but you gotta answer mine first."
-
>"Okay, but you gotta answer mine first."

>"And who are you Miss Paperlady ? I'm Daiyousei ! From the Misty Lake."

> "Okay, I'm Hatate Himekaidou. I find interesting news and publish it in newspaper so everyone knows what's going on."
>"What's the box?"
>Gesture to the rectangular orange box thing.
> "This?" She holds up the object. "It's my camera. Now, Daiyousei, could you tell me how you got so big? Fairies aren't usually near this sort of height."

-
>"It was a miracle! And I'm not even as far as I can go!"

What are you looking at ? There totally wasn't anything here about forgetting Cirno on our pocket, go read the other stuff. U.u

>Pet Hatate.
> "Huh, really?" Hatate fiddles with her camera again.
> You shrink, but when you do, your entire dress rips apart starting at your pocket, and you're left in your underwear. Cirno lands onto the ground next to you.

> You think about shrinking Cirno-chan as well. You could make Alice grow, though you had to hold onto her... perhaps it will work with her too.
>"Oh, okay. Have a good night!"
> Hatate waves back and continues flying.
>Hold on, first, pick up Cirno-chan And equip her to gain Freeze Powers and put her down.
> You pick Cirno up and out of your pocket. She looks really tired.
> "Huh, we're here?"
>Also take our doll and give it to Cirno-chan for her to hold for now.
> You put the doll in Cirno's hands and she starts to hold it. So cute...
>Then return to regular size so we don't damage the doors when we knock.
>"We're here !"
>Approach the shrine doors, kneel down, and knock.
> You return to your regular size and knock on the doors. Kanako opens them for you.
> "Ah, Daiyousei. Come on in." She says and steps out of the way.
> Now that you can sort of glimpse inside, you see that most of your group are sleeping. Mystia seems to be the only one of your group awake, minus you and Cirno.
>_
-
>"Hello, Miss Purple!"
>Stride on in.
-
>"Hello, Miss Purple!"
>Stride on in.
> You enter the shrine and Cirno follows you groggily.
> "It's Kanako." She says, closing the door.
> "Oh yeah, this place became a sort of sleepover." She says. "Sanae came in holding hands with Kogasa, so I guess things went well. Do you need anything, or will you just turn in like the rest of your group?"
> Mystia looks over to you. "Daiyousei, there you are. Kanako and I were talking about me buying a television. We both agreed that we'd have it at your house, since it's the most convenient. If I picked a less convenient place, it would cost too much. But we still need your okay on it. Nothing would get in the way, and I'll pay for it anyways, so how about it?"
>_
-
I'm fine with that.
-
I'm fine with it too, but wouldn't we need a source of electricity for that ? :V
-
"It's not gonna bite me, is it? Or take up too much space? Because I got a lot of space to I intend to take up! But if it doesn't do anything bad, I guess it's okay."
-
"It's not gonna bite me, is it? Or take up too much space? Because I got a lot of space to I intend to take up! But if it doesn't do anything bad, I guess it's okay."
> "It won't do any of that." Mystia says. "Okay, it's a deal Kanako!"
> "Got it." Kanako pulls out a camera like the one Hatate had, and fiddles with it.
> "Nitori," She talks to the camera. "you guys can start now. ... The television, remember? ... Eh? But the water could- ... Well, we can't exactly move her, but what about something else? ......... Okay ... Yeah, it's not too late ... Goodnight Nitori." Kanako puts the camera away.
> "Ehehe, sorry Mystia. We can't do it after all."
>_
-
>"Buh?"
-
>"Buh?"
> "There were a few problem with how it would work out..." Kanako says.
> "A-Alright." Mystia says, disappointed. "I'll be going home then. Guys, you should head home too." She starts to gently shake Wriggle.
> "W-What?" Wriggle wakes up and rubs her eyes. "I fell asleep?"
>_
-
>"What kind of problems?"
-
>"What kind of problems?"
> "Ones we can't really work around." Kanako answers. "Don't worry about it."
> Mystia and Wriggle start to wake Lily and Rumia up.
>_
-
"I work around problems. I can add up or subtract anything!"
-
"I work around problems. I can add up or subtract anything!"
> "If Nitori and I can't do anything about it, then how could a fairy?" Kanako says. She pauses for a second, then looks down slightly. "Uh, sorry."
> Mystia is carrying Rumia on her back, as she's the only one not awake.
> "Alright Daiyousei, we're all ready." She says.
>_
-
>"You guys want a ride?"
-
>"You guys want a ride?"
> "Yes please." Mystia answers.
> Cirno starts to hold on to you. She still has the doll in her hands.

-
>Motion for everyone to follow us out, and let's go to our second maximum height. Then let folks get situated and head out.
>"Oh, who wants dropped off at home?"
-
>Motion for everyone to follow us out, and let's go to our second maximum height. Then let folks get situated and head out.
> You and your group head out of the shrine. You grow to your second largest. Cirno has fallen off and is lying in the grass, asleep.
>"Oh, who wants dropped off at home?"
> "Just drop me off near the village." Mystia says.
> "The Forest of Magic." Wriggle says.
> "I'll go with you guys to the lake." Lily says.
> Cirno and Rumia are asleep, and don't respond.
>_
-
>Gently pick Cirno up, and hold Rumia if needs be.
>Once everyone is ready, head for either the village or the Forest of Magic, whichever is closer. Then hit up the other one and drop people off at the appropriate places, then head for home.
-
>Gently pick Cirno up, and hold Rumia if needs be.
> Mystia flies onto your shoulder and is carrying Rumia, so that's taken care of.
> Wriggle and Lily manage another spot.
> You pick up Cirno, careful not to disturb her.
>Once everyone is ready, head for either the village or the Forest of Magic, whichever is closer. Then hit up the other one and drop people off at the appropriate places, then head for home.
> You decide to head for the Village. Before you get there, Mystia leaves Rumia on your shoulder and flies off towards the road.
> "Thanks Daiyousei. Good night. And take Rumia to the mansion please."
> You head to the Forest of Magic next and drop Wriggle off. She looks around for a while, and you don't see her go anywhere after you drop her off, so you just leave.
> You return to Misty Lake and Lily flies away next, waving you goodbye.
>_
-
>One more stop toward the mansion, then. Gently take Rumia in hand, and land at the gates. We have a gatekeeper to put in her place!
-
>One more stop toward the mansion, then. Gently take Rumia in hand, and land at the gates. We have a gatekeeper to put in her place!
> You go over to the Scarlet Devil Mansion and go to the gates with Rumia in your other hand. You don't find Meiling for a while until you spot her on the inside of the gate, next to the wall. She's asleep.

-
>"Hey."
>Grin proudly!
-
>"Hey."
>Grin proudly!
> "Oh...hey Daiyousei." She rubs her eyes. "You look a bit bigger."
>_
-
>"Yep! You thought you were the tallest, but you were wrong! It's me! I bet you're super jealous!"
-
>Put our hands at our hips and puff out our chest in a defiant/confident posture. Hopefully this emphasizes your size and your awesomeness!
-
>"Yep! You thought you were the tallest, but you were wrong! It's me! I bet you're super jealous!"
>Put our hands at our hips and puff out our chest in a defiant/confident posture. Hopefully this emphasizes your size and your awesomeness!
> You notice that you're squishing Cirno a bit with this pose.
> "Congratulations on getting bigger." Meiling smiles.
> She doesn't look that jealous. This feels like a hollow victory...
>_
-
>Let's not squish Cirno, there' was a reason we set Rumia aside!
>"...Aren't you totally jealous, though?"
-
>Let's not squish Cirno, there' was a reason we set Rumia aside!
>"...Aren't you totally jealous, though?"
> You stop posing that way.
> "Why would I be jealous?" She asks innocently. "I'm glad for you."
> You realize that Meiling, though smaller than you, still appears to have a bigger chest. What finally explains this is how her chest looks compared to the rest of her body.
>_
-
>"Huh. Well. I was super jealous of you. Thanks, though!"
>Beam!
>"Oh, I brought Rumia back. She's asleep over here."
-
>"Huh. Well. I was super jealous of you. Thanks, though!"
>Beam!
>"Oh, I brought Rumia back. She's asleep over here."
> "E-Eh? Rumia?" She looks over. "Ah!"
> Meiling lifts Rumia up and starts to knock on the mansions door.
> "Sakuyaaa!"
> Rumia appears to vanish from Meiling's arms.
>_
-
>"Where'd she go?"
-
>"Where'd she go?"
> "I think Sakuya took her." Meiling pauses. "Hey Sakuya, you could've let me in too!"
>_
-
>"Oh, okay. Well, have a good night!"
-
>"Oh, okay. Well, have a good night!"
> Meiling slumps and returns to her spot. In seconds, she's asleep again.

-
>Let's head home.
>As a faerie, how do we feel about sleeping out of doors?
-
>Let's head home.
>As a faerie, how do we feel about sleeping out of doors?
> You head back to your treehouse, Cirno still in hand.
> You would really prefer sleeping indoors, but if you had to sleep out in the open for a good reason, you could. It would still take a bit longer to fall asleep though since it's not as comfortable.
>_
-
>Can we reach Cirno's Igloo from here? If so, deposit her in front of that.
-
> If we cannot reach Cirno's Igloo, gently place her in one of our pockets.
> Once Cirno has been deposited somewhere, place our hands on our chest and try to concentrate the chest-feeling there and make just our chest a little bit bigger (without growing the rest of us).
-
>Can we reach Cirno's Igloo from here? If so, deposit her in front of that.

> Once Cirno has been deposited somewhere, place our hands on our chest and try to concentrate the chest-feeling there and make just our chest a little bit bigger (without growing the rest of us).

> Keep going. Let's see how far we can push it before super-tight clothing or balance becomes an issue.
> Since you aren't at your maximum size, you believe that the rest could be used on your chest, so you continue trying to enlarge it.
> Your breasts gets almost near twice their size before your clothes start to feel tight, so you stop. You still have more of that feeling in your chest, however, and believe that you could go further at the expense of your dress.
> You don't have a mirror or anything to examine yourself in, but you think that this is how Meiling's chest looks on her. There is the water's reflective edge surface though.
>_
-
> Check ourselves out in the water!
-
>Not at our maximum height? Have we hit a new maximum since Sanae's second miracle infusion?
-
> Check ourselves out in the water!
> You examine yourself in the lake. Yup, this is Meiling's size!
>Not at our maximum height? Have we hit a new maximum since Sanae's second miracle infusion?
> You have not.
//When you said second maximum, I interpreted it as second-to-largest. I really need to start asking for clarifications when I'm unsure...Sorry.

No worries.
>Let's return our bust to normal for now, and go for our last known for reals maximum height. Then...try to push it just a tad further.
-
No worries.
>Let's return our bust to normal for now, and go for our last known for reals maximum height. Then...try to push it just a tad further.

>_
-
>See if we can squeeze out just a tad more feeling.
-
>See if we can squeeze out just a tad more feeling.
> You concentrate really hard and manage to make yourself a tiny bit bigger. You can only barely notice the feeling in your chest now, and even then, it's really really miniscule.

//Really? I leave for at least an hour and you guys didn't press the matter of the TV further? For shame! Our base needs a TV damnit!
>Make a mental note to find this Nitor-whoever person purple-hair-lady was talking about later and ask them what is the deal (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBGZ7KAwt-g) what the problem is.

Kanako wasn't being forthcoming, didn't see the reason to press the issue. Definitely a tomorrow deal.
>"Heehee! I'm getting better!"
>Ponder for a moment. Cirno has our new doll. We have Cirno, so via the transitive property...
>Take Cirno out of our pocket and cuddle her against our chest, then lay down near our tree and go to sleep for the evening.

-
>"...Huh?"
>Open eyes, glance around.
-
>"...Huh?"
>Open eyes, glance around.
> You look around and see Lily floating above you.
> Cirno is still on your chest, along with the doll she's holding.
> "Oh, you're awake now. Good morning Daiyousei." Lily says with a smile.
>_
-
>"Hi!"
>Is Cirno awake?
-
>"Hi!"

> Cirno is still asleep.

-
>"No! Not at all! I think Cirno-chan just wanted to learn about love... well... because she just wanted to learn about it..."

> "That's okay." She says cheerfully. "So what are you doing today?"
>_
-
>"Well, I was thinking about tracking down that Nitwit-whoever person the purple-haired lady at the Moriya Shrine was talking about last night, who apparently had a problem that made it so that we couldn't get a magic picture box for our base, sometime later today so I can solve said problem with my biggness, smallerness, and mathness and get us the magic box.
And maybe some more bigness"
-
>"And I need to get back with Alice, so we can work on adding up our skills."

>Wave to them again.
>"Did you have a good night?"
-

-
>Wave to them again.
>"Did you have a good night?"

>Ponder our options regarding Alice and obtaining a TV, which one sounds like it could be done quicker? Which one sounds like higher priority? How close is one compared to the other? Are they in similar directions? Can we do one on the way to the other?
> For one, you don't know where the person Kanako talked to is. Second, you would have to bring Mystia there, since she's the one the deal was offered to, and would pay for it. Third, you would have to solve the problem that Kanako said you couldn't solve. Alice definitely seems like the better choice.
>"Well... It wasn't Nitwit... It was Nit-something... NEET-Tower? Nettle-terry? Nit-whatchyamacallit...?"
> "Hm... It sounds a bit familiar, but I still don't remember."
> Cirno stirs a bit in her sleep.

-
> How's the chest feeling going?
-
>There's no such thing as an unsolvable problem! NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE! ESPECIALLY WITH BIGNESS AND SMALLNESS!
>Where is Mystia's stand located relative to Alice's house and Youkai Mountain?
//Ok, so what I'm thinking: Do the thing with Alice, sweep by Mystia's and pick her up, go to youkai mountain, get someone to tell us where Nitori is or find her ourselves, solve the problem, and get the TV as well as any other rewards for solving the problem, in that order. Any objections?
-
> How's the chest feeling going?

>There's no such thing as an unsolvable problem! NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE! ESPECIALLY WITH BIGNESS AND SMALLNESS!
>Where is Mystia's stand located relative to Alice's house and Youkai Mountain?
> Mysti's stand is usually on a road to the Human Village. You could go to Alice's house first in the Forest of Magic, then Mystia's stand and finally the mountain.
> However, Mystia usually has her stand active at nighttime.

-
>"Wanna come with us?"
Let's talk to the neighbors, too.
-
>"Wanna come with us?"
Let's talk to the neighbors, too.
> The fairies seem to talk amongst themselves, occasionally pointing at your chest- or rather, Cirno. After a short wait, one of them slowly approaches you, trembling like crazy.
> "D-D-Don't be s-scared!" One of the other fairies shouts as the one approaching you gets close and looks upwards towards you.
>_
-
>Do we recognize her?
>"Hey there!"
-
>Do we recognize her?
>"Hey there!"
> You do. She's the very fearful fairy*. Although she isn't too afraid of you, the only reason she is likely doing this is because of the other fairies.
> *You recall her "fleeing" or something along those lines during the red mist after Reimu and Marisa came by. This made a lot of the less than brave fairies flee, but she must've taken it badly.
> She is one of the countless nameless fairies.
> The fairy shivers in place at the grand sound of your voice.

-
>Can we pet her with our pinky ? If so do it.
>Softly with Grace:"You look soo cute..."
-
>Can we pet her with our pinky ? If so do it.
>Softly with Grace:"You look soo cute..."
> It would be awkward to pet her with the pinky of the same hand that you are carrying her with. Otherwise, if you wanted to use the other one, you would need to set Cirno down.
> "R-Really?" She asks.
>_
-
>With a low voice: "Uh huh !"
>Attempt shake Cirno-chan to wake her.
-
>With a low voice: "Uh huh !"
>Attempt shake Cirno-chan to wake her.
> The fairy smiles some more, but her expression changes to terror when she sees you trying to wake Cirno.
> You shake your hand a bit to try and wake Cirno up. She yawns a bit and sits up on your hand, still clutching the doll.
> "Is it morning already Dai-chan?"
>_
-
> It feels the same as it did last night.

-
> "We got people to go and places to see today."
> "Okay..." Cirno lazily gets back up.

> You begin to concentrate on the feeling in order to expand your chest. You do so carefully, and eventually get them to almost three times their size before it starts to feel uncomfortable. You could definitely go further, but it would be really uncomfortable and heavy, not to mention probably weird to look at.

> You also plan to develop spellcards using your abilities.
> You should upgrade team ⑨'s base/your home. Maybe get some actual beds instead of just blankets. Other furniture would be nice too. You've recently gotten a table, but that's about it.
> Now that Lily White is a member of Team ⑨, you should look into getting a larger home and group base. It would be hard to have space for all 6 of you during meetings otherwise.
> Thanks to the mermaid; Wakasagihime, you've found out that the Scarlet Devil Mansion is probably the only place with a use for fairies. That, along with the massive amount of fairy maids, has brought on the thought that they're responsible for the declining amount of fairies at Misty Lake. Conversations with the mansion's residents have only further hardened this thought.
> You're a bit interested in enmaidment at the Scarlet Devil Mansion, considering what Sakuya, the head maid, has told you so far. You'd just need to sign up at their library and see if you qualify.
> You need to improve your matchmaking skills. Being a matchmaker will help you out in the long run...probably? Lily seems to know about matchmaking, so perhaps she could help. Though, she's started to bug you about you and Cirno being a match... So far, you've not only brought Kogasa and Sanae together, but also Marisa and Alice.
> You seek to figure out why you cannot have a picture box at your home. Though Mystia has the money, Kanako claims that there are problems that can't really be worked around.
> You still want to continue exploring and enhancing your skills at growth and shrinking. Sanae has already used miracles on you twice to start, but others have either failed or haven't been permanent.
>Get our doll from Cirno-chan.
> You snatch request your doll from Cirno-chan, and she happily hands it to you.
>Inventory.
> You have no cash.
> Doll: A doll made by Alice Margatroid. Resembles Alice's basic dolls. May or may nor include gunpowder.
> Usual Blue Dress: You are wearing one of your usual blue dresses. It's nothing special, and actually pretty plain.
> You aren't wearing any shoes, and are barefoot, as you prefer.
>What are our options in terms of places to visit ?
> You could visit Alice in the Forest of Magic about yesterday.
> You could visit the Moriya Shrine to try and pry more information on why you can't have the picture box. You could also visit Sanae there and inquire about miracles(particularly of the size variant...)...
> You could visit the Scarlet Devil Mansion for details on enmaidment or just to visit Rumia, among other things.
> You could visit Keine in the Human Village and maybe get back into attending the school. It still will uncomfortable due to you being the only fairy that goes there.
> There aren't many other options that come to mind at the moment.
>Wonder if MIniking acts likes his avatar pic.

The plan was to hit up Alice, then the town to get Mystia, then look into that pictobox. But SDM is also nearby. At this point, though, I would argue we have exceeded becoming a maid.

> "It could be possible." Sakuya says. "There are still more rooms that haven't been used, and Rumia already lives here."
>"And don't forget the occasional donation money for Miss Reimu !"
> "It could be considered..."
>"Yeah, but I dunno...eating people is just asking for trouble..."
> "Actually managing to see another human besides myself is rare in the mansion. There shouldn't be any worries."
> "What about Ru-"
> Meiling suddenly vanishes from your sight.
> "Now that I think about it," Sakuya says, "your abilities seem more useful for a different type of job..."

-
> Blink.
> "Huh?"
-
>"And what about Roo?"
-
> Blink.
> "Huh?"
>"And what about Roo?"
> "She was going to mention Rumia, if you needed to know." Sakuya says.
> "Would you be interested in assisting Meiling as a gate guard?"

-
>"Hmmmm..."
>Ponder
>Who do we know has a name starting with "Ru" besides Rumia ?
>"How long would i have to stay here guarding ? Would there be lunch breaks and stuff like that ?"
What do you guys think ?
-
>"I'm kinda a busy faerie, so...I dunno if I could be here as much as she is."
-
>"Hmmmm..."
>Ponder
>Who do we know has a name starting with "Ru" besides Rumia ?
> You aren't completely sure, but Rumia is the one that comes to mind.
>"How long would i have to stay here guarding ? Would there be lunch breaks and stuff like that ?"
> "Possibly a few hours at a time... I'd have to actually talk with milady and-"
> "Sakuya!" Meiling bursts through the mansions doors. "That was mean."
> "You were being a distraction." Sakuya says.
>"I'm kinda a busy faerie, so...I dunno if I could be here as much as she is."
> "We could probably manage around that." Sakuya says.
> "Hm? Meiling questions.
>_
-
>"She wants me to help with the gates!"
-
>"Then we will be work partners !"
>Turn to Sakuya.
>"Do i get to have an outfit that's as pretty as yours ?"
-
>"She wants me to help with the gates!"
>"Then we will be work partners !"
> "Yes Meiling." Sakuya says. "You haven't been doing so well."
> "But I don't fall asleep!" Meiling says. "And I try a lot to stop Reimu and Marisa, but they're really tough."
> "And that's why she would just be help. She wouldn't take your place, just help out when needed." Sakuya smiles.
> "How come you guys talked about this without me?"
> "The idea was recent. I hadn't spoken with milady yet." Sakuya says.
>Turn to Sakuya.
>"Do i get to have an outfit that's as pretty as yours ?"
> "Yes, we could get you a maid uniform."
>_
-
>"Mmmm. What's the catch?"
-
>"Mmmm. What's the catch?"
> "There's a lot!" Meiling says. "You have to make sure no one gets in unless they have permission. Try to stop strong people from getting in without permission. You have to sleep outside sometimes. Make sure the young mistress doesn't try to escape. And Sakuya's mean to you sometimes too."
> "That isn't all true for her." Sakuya says. "You wouldn't need to sleep here, and you would be welcome to come inside most of the time."
>_
-
>"What else?"
-
>"What else?"
> "Hm... Reimu and Marisa are slightly troublesome, and you are just a fairy. Maybe it's a bad idea and I haven't thought it through enough..." Sakuya says.
> "Yeah, they can get past me, and I'm pretty strong." Meiling boasts.
>_
-
I think I'm actually okay with this if we get a light schedule and get some concession from them.
-
I second this, not only for Kilga's reasons, but remember we are almost done with our spellcard, and any battles we get in as a gate guard would be a good test.
>"So Miss Meiling would become like a gate captain ?"
-
I think we can roll with it, but perhaps negotiate toward emergency backup guard. Also get something like pay, and also better treatment for Meiling because she's our pal.
>"Okay. but what do I get?"
-
>"So Miss Meiling would become like a gate captain ?"
> "You could say that, yes." Sakuya says.
>"Okay. but what do I get?"
> "You could get the normal meal fairy maids get, and the outfit, since you wanted it. Maybe get a share of Meiling's pay as well."
> "Huh!?"
> "But I can't promise this. I still have to wait until milady awakens to talk about it."
> "Ooh!" Cirno speaks up. "Why not pick me? I almost beat Marisa before, so I can totally do it!"
> "I thought you didn't want to be a maid?" Sakuya questions.
> "That was because the maid work looked boring and stuff. This would just be fighting, and I'm the strongest, so that's easy!"
>_
-
>"I want a share of your pay instead. And Meiling gets to come inside like you offered me. That balances the equation."
>Firm nod.
>"Also stop kidnapping faeries! And if I hear about any humans getting eaten, I'll ask Reimu if she'll let me tear the roof off this mansion, and you know she'll say yes, and then I'll hide it where you'll never find it!"
-
>Turn to Cirno-chan.
>"Cirno-chan, are you sure ? You can't go play with the others when you're guarding, and you also need to follow the rules. But you really are strong, you handled almost all the fairy maids before on your own !"
-
>Turn to Cirno-chan.
>"Cirno-chan, are you sure ? You can't go play with the others when you're guarding, and you also need to follow the rules. But you really are strong, you handled almost all the fairy maids before on your own !"
> "Yeah! She said she could manage around it or something. And Meiling only beats people up and goes to sleep. That's easy!" Cirno says.
>"I want a share of your pay instead. And Meiling gets to come inside like you offered me. That balances the equation."
>Firm nod.
> "My pay?" Sakuya raises an eyebrow.
>"Also stop kidnapping faeries! And if I hear about any humans getting eaten, I'll ask Reimu if she'll let me tear the roof off this mansion, and you know she'll say yes, and then I'll hide it where you'll never find it!"
> Sakuya vanishes, and you feel something tiny and cold on a side of your neck.
> "I don't believe you know who's mansion you're threatening." You hear Sakuya say.
>_
-
>"Reimu's not gonna be happy you're being bad, you know! No deal!"
-
>"Reimu's not gonna be happy you're being bad, you know! No deal!"
> "Our actions are fair under the laws. The recent misunderstanding was just that, a misunderstanding."

-
>"Nuh-uh! You don't eat people by accident! You're just getting mad because you're wrong and bad!"
>Shake her off.
-
>"Nuh-uh! You don't eat people by accident! You're just getting mad because you're wrong and bad!"
> Sakuya sighs.
>Shake her off.
> You start to shake your head in order to get Sakuya off, and the cold thing goes a bit across the side of your face. It's really sharp, and a small part of the side of your face stings.
> You hear a clicking noise, and Sakuya appears back next to the mansion's door. The stinging sensation doesn't feel as bad now.
> "I apologize for that, but you shouldn't try to move suddenly in that sort of situation." Sakuya says.
>_
-
>"You shouldn't be bad! I was gonna work with you guys and everything, but you can't stop being the worst, so no deal!"
>Feel the stinging, see if we can tell anything about.
-
>"You shouldn't be bad! I was gonna work with you guys and everything, but you can't stop being the worst, so no deal!"
> "It's unfortunate that you feel that way. Thank you for your time though, Daiyousei." Sakuya says, bowing before she vanishes once more.
> "Hey wait! You didn't let me try to be a gate guard!" Cirno shouts.
>Feel the stinging, see if we can tell anything about.
> You touch your face where it stings. You can feel what you believe is a bandaid covering the part where it stings.

//Whelp, so much for that lol.
-
Aww... i had something planned out, but whatever, we can find another way to get beds and money for donations. :(
>"Well, at least she was kind enough to patch the cut, maybe i was a bit to harsh, but threating to kill a fairy for intimidation isn't pretty smart, we would just respawn."
>Shrug.
>"I guess once everything is cleared up we can all be good friends !"
-
We are ultimately bound by the promise to be good, after all.
>Gently pat Meiling on the head with a finger. "I tried, but they're just too busy being nasty, aren't they?"
-
>Gently pat Meiling on the head with a finger. "I tried, but they're just too busy being nasty, aren't they?"
> "But Sakuya-san can be really nice sometimes." Meiling says as you pat her.

>Shrug.
>"I guess once everything is cleared up we can all be good friends !"
> "She usually just outright kills any fairy that's threatening the mansion or us. Not if they're a maid though. Then they only get disciplined...most of the time."

But wouldn't breaking the roof of an entire mansion be bad too ? Even for a reason like that ? But i had a backup strat in case of this.
>"Well, i think i want to go to school today ! I'd like to talk with Miss Keine and ask her for donations to Miss Reimu. Cirno-chan should go too so she can learn how to count to 25 !"
>"Oh ! And did you know i matched Miss Kogasa ans Miss Sanae together Miss Meiling ? They're so happy together now !"
-
That's why I specified we'd ask permission from Reimu first! If then conditionals, you see.
>Actually, what is our deal regarding school?
-
>Actually, what is our deal regarding school?
>You are one of the few fairies, if not the only one that goes there, a bit odd, but you have learned a great deal of things there, such as the concept of love, Keine is also a pretty nice and kind person.
Helper time yay !

>Actually, what is our deal regarding school?
> You used to go there and learned a good deal of things from Keine, but you've stopped after a while of being the only fairy there. Cirno went there too, but gave up on it really early on. You liked it, and the other kids were friendly, but you're still one of a kind there.

>"I also matched Miss Marisa and Miss Alice together ! ........Hmm, maybe i can match you with someone too !!! Or maybe match Miss Sakuya ! Or match Miss Patchouli !"
>"Well, better get going." Shrink and hug Meiling's face, then sit on her head and pet her. "Have a nice day, Miss Meiling ! Don't let them cut your pay !"
-
>"I also matched Miss Marisa and Miss Alice together ! ........Hmm, maybe i can match you with someone too !!! Or maybe match Miss Sakuya ! Or match Miss Patchouli !"

> You shrink, and the bandaid covers a large part of your face now. You hug Meiling's face, then pat her from atop her head.
> "You too Daiyousei."
> "Hey Meiling," Lily asks, "If you sleep along with someone, doesn't that mean you like them?"
> "I guess so..."

It's a pretty neat Quest, it gets bonus points on me due to the bright and happy aura it has. ^^ Miniking still slips up sometimes but it's acceptable IMO.
>"Ehh, umm..." Prod our fingers on each other. "But Miss Marisa and Miss Alice don't have similar clothes... they even wear different panties..."

> You look around. There's nothing too interesting besides people heading to whatever place they have business at. There are some enjoying fruit and other food along their way.
> You look into the school windows. It's a fairly big room with a bunch of desks placed evenly throughout it. There's a large desk at one side of the room. There are only a few kids sitting in the desks. There's even fewer who are actually paying attention. Keine appears to be at the large desk.

> Cirno and Lily enter behind you, and Lily immediately walks across the classroom to Keine. The children turn their attention to her. Some of them go back to their own business however.
> "K-Keine," Lily stutters. "If you sleep together with someone, d-doesn't that mean you like them?" Lily floats up closer to Keine.
> "Huh? I'm sorry, could you please repeat that?"

//Like Purvis said, why are we dropping the old plan....?

I figure we'll just pick it up after this.

What old plan ? Did i miss something or do you mean the maid thingy ? I think it's better to let time pass a little more before going back, and we also have a spellcard to finish !
>Warp through it if there is enough space, if not just graze it safely.
>"Lily ! Stop ! Please !"

//Ok, so what I'm thinking: Do the thing with Alice, sweep by Mystia's and pick her up, go to youkai mountain, get someone to tell us where Nitori is or find her ourselves, solve the problem, and get the TV as well as any other rewards for solving the problem, in that order. Any objections?
The plan was to hit up Alice, then the town to get Mystia, then look into that pictobox. But SDM is also nearby. At this point, though, I would argue we have exceeded becoming a maid.
This plan ^
>Can we warp Lily closer to us?
