Aya:
> "Crimony."
> Adopt a thinking expression.
> "...Hey, Larva? Would you mind covering your ears for a moment? I don't want to dunk you again, but I need to ask Lady Yakumo something a bit private."
Larva:
> "Oh, um, I guess..."
> Cover our ears with our hands.
Aya:
> Look back to Yukari.
> "...So, just to double-check my suspicions...why did you ask me to open that door, instead of simply gapping your way in there yourself?"
Aya:
> "That's the outside world. Given Seija's insistence that it's dangerous, and what she said about Sumireko-"
> "It might be the actual reality to our fantasy here in Gensokyo." Seija adds, coming into view. "Like I said, she seemed like she could do something about what's fantasy and what's reality, but isn't good at it, or doesn't know enough in the first place."
> "At least until I said I didn't understand her well." Yukari crosses her arms. "With what else she said, we're pretty much all the kind of fantasy that is more of a "thought" than "something unbelievable" to her. Who's to say we won't just cease to exist if we tried to go into there?"
> "Well, it doesn't happen with the outside world we know." Seija argues. "But given this isn't even the Gensokyo we know anymore, I can see why it's not worth the risk."
> "If she can do what you said she could, then I take it this "barrier" is just the end of what's our world now. This is all we have in our reality." Yukari considers. "That's my guess, given it explains why there's nowhere that my gaps lead to. Though I wonder about the rest of Gensokyo. And how Tenshi got through..."
> "Tenshi got through?" Seija questions.
> "Probably has to do with her sword."
