Okay, I can't remember all your addresses, but who of us from Gensokyo have enough back to put up a good danmaku fight? With Mokou gone, I need to find an alternative.



[A: Action - Grocery Store]

[Marisa is pushing a cart around the grocery store filling it up with random food stuffs. There's literally no rhyme or pattern to what she's picking out, making it nearly impossible to figure out what she's planning to cook. Or for how many people.]



[B: Action - Church]

[Marisa is sitting in the second pew from the front with her boots resting on the back of the one in front of her. Looking bored, she tosses a star bullet repeatedly up into the air and catches just as one would a ball. Eventually, she'd be approached...]

[adropofjupiter]

Not gonna give you specifics, ze, but I'm missing some of my high-level spells and that's about it.

[badladyscramble]

I guess it's true I haven't seen those big, dumb beams of yours. And haven't you been palling around with the other magicians for things? Up to your usual tricks?

[Re: stealing everyone else's techniques...]

[adropofjupiter]

I do what I do, ze.

[badladyscramble]

Hmph. Is that what thing you hit me with back with the scarlet mist was?

[adropofjupiter]

...I only backhanded you, ze. I just figured out how to make my body be stronger than yours for a bit. I didn't hit you with any magic.

[badladyscramble]

Well, it was magic enhanced. That's not the sort of thing you were running around with before.

[adropofjupiter]

You act like it's a foreign kind of thing, ze. Byakuren uses this kind of magic, too.

[badladyscramble]

I mean, you weren't using that thing before, at least not very much.

[adropofjupiter]

Not really. So... What's your point? I'm always figuring out new magic.

[badladyscramble]

Hmm... somehow, it just irritates me that you keep picking these things up like a packrat. And especially in a place like this...

[adropofjupiter]

Sorry I'm adaptable, ze. But it's just a part of being human.

[badladyscramble]

No, I'm pretty sure it's just you. Reimu's the same as always.

[adropofjupiter]

Your comparison is invalid; Reimu is lazy.

[badladyscramble]

So you'd say there are more humans like you than her?

[adropofjupiter]

Totally.

[badladyscramble]

...though I suppose you're both outliers anyway.

[adropofjupiter]

Probably.

[badladyscramble]

It's almost a shame. Most humans are just so boring in comparison.

[adropofjupiter]

...I'll take that as a compliment.

[badladyscramble]

[A kind of disgruntled noise. She hadn't meant to compliment Marisa, but...]

...well, at least you keep things from getting boring.

[adropofjupiter]

Exactly.

[Ha ha.]

[badladyscramble]

Not that I wouldn't mind you not invading the mansion...

I guess that hasn't been a problem here. [FOR LACK OF A MANSION TO INVADE... plus Patchy living in a different house]

[adropofjupiter]

I've not set foot inside your house.

And it's only invasion when trying to take something over. I have no desire for that, ze.

[badladyscramble]

Fine. Intruding.

[Angry wing flap. SEMANTICS. It's unlawful entrance!]

[adropofjupiter]

That I'll accept.
