Human once again(AKA I get to use my human reimu icons again/4th Wall Event Post) Action

[nekomikoreimu]

[Up at the shrine, a certain shrine maiden was enjoying being human again. And how does she enjoy that? Drinking tea and sweeping WITH HER HANDS! Watch out we got party animal here.

She also has been hitting the sake she has been saving up. So any visitor may spot a slightly tipsy Reimu, and may be offered a glass from the Miko herself.]

Comments

[phantasmgap]

["Visitor", pfeh. The way she sees it, the shrine only half belongs to Reimu; by being a piece of Gensokyo she has taken the time to construct, the other half is free to all youkai. Such as herself.

She... maaaay be trying to casually pilfer sake and tea alike.]

[nekomikoreimu]

[Reimu suddenly stops drinking, feeling a familiar presence. She glances aroumd, and spots Yukari. She stares at her for a bit, cheeks red from the sake.]

... about time you showed up.

[phantasmgap]

[Yukari gives an indifferent shrug, taking a sip from the cup she'd already been pouring.]

You've been doing a good enough job here, and there's no reason for me to fix someone else's mess.

[nekomikoreimu]

[Reimu takes a sip of her own cup]

You could have gapped me out of this place. I can't leave Gensokyo alone for so long.

[danmakuboundary]

There have been no incidents.

[This was a lie, but not in the way Reimu would expect. Reimu's been there to fix them all, and would be. Because that is how things work.]

And the human magician has had quite a bit more business as a youkai hunter, in your absence.

[This was not a lie.]

In addition, I notice you're much more efficient at gathering donations - and spiritual power - here in this land. Maybe a lazy miko just needs equally lazy ponies to motivate, yes?

[...Yukari, you have no place to talk regarding laziness.]

[nekomikoreimu]

... As happy as I am that Marisa hasn't blown all of Gensokyo away, I cannot shurk my shrine maiden responsibilities.

[Reimu glances at the donation box. Yukari was right that was was getting more donations her, and Reimu hasn't gone to bed hungry for a long time. However, the laziness jab brings Reimu back to the conversation.]

How the heck am I lazy, when you sleep for 4 months of the year?

[phantasmgap]

Keeping the balance of Gensokyo is a demanding task, I'll have you know!

[A demanding task that she mostly delegates to Ran and Reimu, of course.]

Someone with such responsibilities deserves some downtime now and then.

[nekomikoreimu]

So tell me, how does trying to invade the moon, or weakening the magic boundary between Gensokyo and the Netherworld keep Gensokyo in balance?

[phantasmgap]

Without potential invasions of the moon, the moon will invade us. Or do you not remember that I assisted you in solving the false moon incident before the second invasion even happened?

[Argue the points you can argue, blatantly ignore the ones you can't. If directly confronted, Yukari can't really deny that the Saigyou Ayakashi incident was basically just a favor for her best friend.]

[nekomikoreimu]

When I was there, they seemed pretty content to just keep to themselves. And that was because of the rouge Princess, not the moon itself. Also, you barely helped.

[Admit Yukari was useful? She'd sooner go donate to the other shrine]

[phantasmgap]

Strange, my memory of the incident was that I did much of the work while the Hakurei maiden griped about wanting to go home.

[...And then there was the "trial of guts". Probably actually better to not talk about the false moon incident, in the long run.]

Regardless, it appears you find far more fellowship with these equines than your fellow human. Maybe when you return to Gensokyo properly, I should let you stay in that hooved form...

[nekomikoreimu]

If you dare I will make sure to make your extermination long and painful.

[danmakuboundary]

Oh, come on. Aside from the lack of hands, what's so different? I'm sure you still lay around all day and I doubt it's dulled your edge in extermination.

[nekomikoreimu]

Why don't you turn yourself into a horse and see if you like it.

[gap_nag]

[...Not like there was any problem with that - just a little bit of manipulation of the boundary between native and foreign... and just like that, it's as if she had lived in Equestria all along. Of course she's an alicorn.

It's mostly for show, given that her powers are strained here. A manipulation like this is a bit more draining than normal, and even though she looks like a princess, she wouldn't exactly be able to harness alicorn-styled magic.]

If you insist. That makes it rather hard to deliver the sake I was bringing as a shrine-warming gift, though...

[nekomikoreimu]

... Show off. And you would just use your magic horn to make the sake float over.

[holyfight]

Reimu-saaaan! I finished sweeping, so I'm gonna go to town now--!

...

Oh! You're human again too!

Re: action

[nekomikoreimu]

[Reimu turned and looked at the human Orihime. She was a lot... more filled out then she thought. In fact, she kinda looked like Sanae, but with orange hair.]

Yeah. Not sure why, or how long it will last, but I am enjoying having hands again for now. Sake?

[holyfight]

Uhn! It makes holding things easier again!

I can't drink sake!

I'm still underaged!

[nekomikoreimu]

Indeed it does.

And what do you mean? Anyone can drink sake.

[holyfight]

Well... you know... age restrictions on it!

[She just assumes Reimu is Secretly 500 Years Old]

[nekomikoreimu]

There is an age restriction? I've been drinking Sake since I was 12, and I am only 15 now.

[holyfight]

There is where I'm from?

Eh heh, I guess I just assumed you were older for some reason!

[funlovinggirl]

[ There's a shrine here! It makes Minori happy, for some reason. Perhaps because she grew up at one, but detail are not too important, right?

She very happily accepts tea, but the sake will be turned down. She seems to be pretty tipsy without having had a sip of alcohol, because she's just naturally laughing at random things either way. ]

[nekomikoreimu]

[Reimu raised an eyebrow at the strange laughing girl.]

Whats so funny?

[funlovinggirl]

[ She grins, and bounces a little. ]

We~ll! It's just that, this place is all colors, it's really nice~

[ Is that why she is laughing. ]

[nekomikoreimu]

... are you sure you haven't had anything to drink?

[funlovinggirl]

I'm completely sure. Because! [ she thumps a fist against her chest. ] I don't drink! [ Except sometimes! ]

[nekomikoreimu]

Sure you don't. [Takes of sip of sake] Anyway, I assume you are one of the people that got pulled here from that ship, right?

[funlovinggirl]

I dunno really. I suppose so, I mean, I don't know anything about ships, because I've never been by the sea.
