[x] The closest thing
The maiden of the shrine that is a both close and new. The person with green hair, white clothes that have blue trim is still idly sweeping, gaze turned upwards. You smile as an idea from one of the books you read comes to mind.
You turn towards Yuuka and place a finger to your lips, she raises an eyebrow at this; the beginning of a smile plays across her face. You nod as you hover, just above the ground, around and behind the shrine maiden; still oblivious, and leap through the air.
Everything seems to slow down as your hands close in on your target? moments before sweet success is achieved you feel a body, that is equal parts soft and hard, collide with you from the side. Speed returns to things as your target quickly speeds away from you. The ground, made from flat stones, is approaching, your flight denying it from touching you.
A frown displays across your face, as your mind starts to catch up. Another person is touching you, white hair, odd ears, hard, soft, and making an odd noise? growling?
Your target, that is seen from the side of your vision, jumps, "Wha- Momiji!?" her already wide eyes, open even wider, "Yu-yu-yuuka!" Wh-What are you doing here!?"
The soft and hard, white hair, odd eared person that growls, pushes you away, and lands in between you and the shrine maiden; you continue to float, slowing down, disappointment filling you at the failed attempt; the taste of sweet success, as the book said, gone.
You place your feet on the ground, now close to Yuuka, and away from the maiden of shrines.
Yuuka looks to you, a blank face, neither sad nor happy, "Are you hurt?"
You shake your head, "I didn't get to surprise the maiden of shrines," you complain to Yuuka.
"You shouldn't do that to people you haven't met, you never know how they might react," Yuuka shakes her head, and looks to the maiden, "As you can see, I am showing this Little One around."
The shrine maiden seems to relax some, though the woman with white and red clothes, does not. The white-red is glowering at you, her fierce eyes accenting it well.
A smile replaces your frown as you watch the maiden and the white haired, white clothed woman, you wave, "Hello!" you call out, feet already carrying you forward, failed attempt forgotten.
The maiden relaxes, like she was before, a smile to match your own on her face, "Hello!" she calls back, waving, "What's your name?
You point to yourself, "My name is Lillian," and then to Yuuka, "Her name is Yuuka, not Yu-yu-yuuka," you nod with satisfaction, happy to help.
You hear a muffled laugh from behind you, and the maidens face turns red, odd.
"Ah." The maiden coughs, "I see, thank you for that?" she mumbles, just loud enough for you to hear, a hand runs through her hair, "My name is Sanae, and this is Momiji," she gestures towards the white haired, white-red, white tailed person, "it's nice to meet you Lillian," she finishes with a warm smile.
Momiji bristles at this, glancing back to Sanae, then to you.
You nod at Sanae, still moving closer, Momiji walking with you staying between you and Sanae, your mind briefly hesitates as questions begin to appear.
You want to ask Sanae what a maiden of the shrine is, or more about Sanae herself? people are different. Then there is also the shrine, you still don't really know what it is besides a different building? plus this Momiji person has different white ears and a tail that looks both soft and spikey?
[x] Shrine Maiden, Maiden of the shrines? you must know what it is; your mind is refusing to grasp it.
[x] Sanae is a different person with green hair like Yuuka; perhaps they are similar but different?
[x] This building, called a Shrine is different, but how?
[x] Momiji, has other things that people other people do not, you want to know more.
[x] That tail looks soft and spikey, you want to confirm this?. <obligatory tail option>
[x] Your mind is wandering. <write in>
So, I lied, but this resulted. I like it, hopefully you do too.
