Seija Quest

[Tom]

> Crud...
> Undo the inversions until we are back to being tiny in Shinmyoumaru's hand.

> You return the trees to their original positions/sizes and become small once more in Shinmyoumaru's palm.

> How are the two mallets doing for energy at this point?

> The real miracle mallet seems to have regained enough energy to perform one inversion
> The replica miracle mallet is now completely out of energy.  Undoing the inversion seems to have taken less energy but didn't replenish it in any way, instead it just slowly regains energy over time.  You believe it'll be good to go again in an hour or two.

[Kilgamayan]

> "Bah. I'll figure that out more later."
> Look up at Shinmyoumaru's face.
> "You should probably get over to the party, huh? You got anywhere on your person you can hide me? I'd rather people not know I can do this."

[Tom]

> "Bah. I'll figure that out more later."

> "Great, I was getting real disoriented there for a moment!"

> Look up at Shinmyoumaru's face.
> "You should probably get over to the party, huh? You got anywhere on your person you can hide me? I'd rather people not know I can do this."

> She takes the bowl she's wearing on her head off and pulls a lid out of her robes
> "Here, I've used this many of times before~  Even when the mallet was drained from the incident I could still make it big enough to hide in!"

[Kilgamayan]

> Is the lid currently large enough for us to get into?
> If so, and we got into it, would Shinmyoumaru be able to put it back where she got it?

[Tom]

> Is the lid currently large enough for us to get into?

> The bowl is large enough for you to get into comfortably even if you slide the lid over to hide.

> If so, and we got into it, would Shinmyoumaru be able to put it back where she got it?

> She'd have to carry it instead of wearing it as a hat

[Kilgamayan]

> Could we fit inside the lid, though?

[Tom]

> Could we fit inside the lid, though?

> The lid itself is mostly flat, Shinmyoumaru has used it as a shield in the past.  You doubt you could use it to hide unless it was like on a table and you hid under it?

[Kilgamayan]

> Look to the lid.
> "That might work. You should put your hat back on, though, so no one gets suspicious."
> Climb into/onto the underside of the lid and try flattening our body against it.

[Tom]

> Look to the lid.
> "That might work. You should put your hat back on, though, so no one gets suspicious."

> A little confused she puts her 'hat' back on

> Climb into/onto the underside of the lid and try flattening our body against it.

> You climb under the lid and lie down.  You reckon someone would have to look from the sides or below to spot you.

[Kilgamayan]

> "Okay, you can put the lid back now. I'll keep myself pressed up against it."

[Tom]

> "Okay, you can put the lid back now. I'll keep myself pressed up against it."

> She looks at you for a moment "You sure about this?" then puts the lid back in her robes near her waist.

> After adjusting her robes as to hide the lid she asks "So let's head back to the shrine?"

[Kilgamayan]

> Where are we now?

[Tom]

> Where are we now?

> You're hiding in Shinmyoumaru's robes around her waist behind the bowl's lid.

> She's presumably walking back towards the Hakurei Shrine

[Kilgamayan]

> "Yeah, that works. Thanks for the assist."
> Scoot around inside Shinmyoumaru's robes a bit, enough that we get fully behind her robes, pressed directly up against her body, but still 'behind' the lid. (If we need to scamper out from 'behind' the lid to get around the inner fold of her robe to do this, that's fine.)

[Tom]

> "Yeah, that works. Thanks for the assist."

> You move around and reposition yourself behind the robe so that if the lid were to be removed you'd still be somewhat hidden.

> Shinmyoumaru lets you a little laugh in surprise, that might have tickled her

[Kilgamayan]

> How much of Shinmyoumaru can we see from here?
> Pat Shinmyoumaru's body a couple of times, then try to hold our position so as to avoid tickling her too much more. If we need to shift for comfort, though, then it needs to happen~
> Keep an ear out for whatever goes on next, since we presumably can't see anything where we are.

[Tom]

> How much of Shinmyoumaru can we see from here?

> Not much

> Pat Shinmyoumaru's body a couple of times, then try to hold our position so as to avoid tickling her too much more. If we need to shift for comfort, though, then it needs to happen~

> "A-ah that tickles!"  She laughs when you try patting her.

> Keep an ear out for whatever goes on next, since we presumably can't see anything where we are.

> If you look out top of the lid you can see vague outlines but yes you'll primarily be relying on sound to tell what's going on

...

> You're now Shinmyoumaru Sukuna, the Inchling Princess!

> After participating in Seija's little experiment you've decided to head back towards the shrine.  This night was supposed to be about the Full Moon Festival! Seija can be so inconsiderate at times, especially when she gets obsessed with something ... but you forgive her.

> On the way back you got a little lost and end up behind the warehouse instead of the back yard.  Regardless you're back at the shrine and can already tell a lot more people have arrived and the festivities have begun!  Now that you're big there's nothing stopping you from having a great time~!

[Kilgamayan]

> Quick, dash our way over to where the crowd has gathered!

[Tom]

> Quick, dash our way over to where the crowd has gathered!

> You quickly walk over to the front yard where you see several of Gensokyo's most prominent figures watching a fierce danmaku match in the sky above!  Things sure have started out exciting!
> They appear to be split into two sides, with one half cheering for the Celestial Tenshi and the other half for this green haired lady you've never seen before.  Meanwhile Reimu and Suika are busy bringing out food and refreshments.

[Kilgamayan]

> What does the green-haired lady look like?
> Shuffle our way over to Reimu. Hopefully she'll let us know about what we missed if we're nice to her...

[Tom]

> What does the green-haired lady look like?

> It's a little hard to see through all the bullets but she appears to be wearing a red dress and is also holding a pink umbrella.

> Shuffle our way over to Reimu. Hopefully she'll let us know about what we missed if we're nice to her...

> You make your way over to the shrine maiden who immediately notices you
> She says "Ahh I was wondering where you were but I guess that explains it" while pointing at your height.

[Kilgamayan]

> "Er, sorry. Lots of huge strange people is......"
> Shake our head.
> "Anyway, what did I miss? Who's winning up there?"

[Tom]

> "Er, sorry. Lots of huge strange people is......"
> Shake our head.

> Reimu nods understandingly

> "Anyway, what did I miss? Who's winning up there?"

> "The flower Youkai's spell cards are clearly more elegant but she's getting tired whereas the Celestial shows no signs of exhaustion and combined with the fact she's so stubborn she'll never give up it's hard to say who's winning..."
> "This looks to me like one of those danmaku matches that'll draw out for far too long but hey it's entertaining and cheaper than fireworks"

[Kilgamayan]

> Nod head vigorously.
> "Did I miss anything else?"

[Tom]

> Nod head vigorously.
> "Did I miss anything else?"

> "Well everyone arrived shortly after you left"
> She then notices Suika waving
> She says "If you'll excuse me I got to get out some more sake before they all go rummaging through my shrine" before quickly running inside the shrine

> Everyone else is too busy enjoying the 'fireworks show' in the sky above to have noticed you

[Kilgamayan]

> Scurry into the shrine after Reimu.
> "Do you want help with that? I can help you with that!"

[Tom]

> Scurry into the shrine after Reimu.
> "Do you want help with that? I can help you with that!"

> You stop her right as she was about to slide the door shut.
> She reassures you "Not at all!  You should be enjoying yourself tonight after all!" before sliding the door shut.

[Kilgamayan]

> "Oh. Um, okay..."
> Turn back to the party.
> Place a hand over where the lid is in our robes and lightly tap it once while looking over who is here.

[Tom]

> "Oh. Um, okay..."
> Turn back to the party.
> Place a hand over where the lid is in our robes and lightly tap it once while looking over who is here.

> You tap the lid and feel a pinch immediately after.  At least that doesn't tickle!

> Looking around to see who's here you notice there's two opposing sides, with one side watching from near the shrine and the other standing by the shrine's gate. 
> On your side (near the shrine) you see Alice, Mokou, Youmu, Yuyuko, Yukari, Rinnosuke, Sanae, Rumia and Cirno who are cheering for Tenshi the Celestial
> There's too much glare from the shining bullets and lasers to tell who's on the other side.

[Kilgamayan]

> Have we ever used the mallet to change our body in any way? If so, how long did it last?
> How loose or form-fitting is our robe?
> Is it still the case that nobody is paying attention to us?
