I stopped at the edge of the stairs. I waited there a moment, then two.

Then, to my satisfaction, I heard that tiger pull herself off the crate, pat down her lap, and shuffle toward me. I hummed and climbed upward.

“I’m… not even sure what you’re expecting me to do. We’re close, but it’s not like she comes to me for advice or anything.”

“It’s all about the journey, not the destination~”

She grumbled. “Do you have to be so mysterious?”

I sighed, then stopped at the top of the stairs. Slowly, I turned around and took her hand, pulling her up beside me. “You mean something to her and, as a result, to me.”

She blinked. I smiled. “Good company never hurt anyone. Now, please follow me.”

I turned on my heel and returned to seeking my quarry. Now, she held rather quiet as I moved through the halls. I couldn’t help a smirk as I listened to her desires. She had, for the moment, all but forgotten her reservations.

By the time we neared the final door, her thoughts had wandered to the person we’d meet on the other side.

I, of course, shoved the door aside and strode in. Inside, Byakuren spun on her heel to face us. For a split-second, I heard an overwhelming urge to bury me in a bear hug. One that she strangled, choosing instead to answer with a clipped sigh. One intended as an expression of displeasure, assumedly. Which I, of course, promptly ignored as I dropped to my feet near her.

The room was rather small - large enough for us to fit, but with little elbow room.

With a grunt, she settled down across from me. Shou settled down to my side, her eyes wandering in some degree of confusion.

Byakuren leveled a neutral but stern gaze on the two of us.

“Good evening, you two.”

Shou’s presence prickled at her, inciting her curiosity. But…

Byakuren cleared her throat. “So, Miko dear.”

I flinched.

[X] Request Byakuren teach her directly. The risks to my standing would be worth it to ensure we cleared the air sooner.

A direct interaction between the two sounds interesting.

------------------------------------

Slipping into a randomly picked room, you slide the door closed behind you and take a deep breath to try and relieve yourself of tension.

You had your suspicions when the youkai’s appearance seemed to not stay the same for too long. But after trudging through the mess that was once the hallways you pretty much confirmed it.

You’ve been spirited away.

What was once old, rotten, wooden hallways turned dimly lit from unknown light sources. Multiple hidden traps that you were barely able to notice or graze as you attempted to gain distance from the original room the youkai and yourself fought in. At first you proceeded with caution, the traps you barely noticed quickly giving way to subtle cues you observed as the more traps you dodged.

Eventually it just got to the point you were almost speed walking the halls like before.

Although you wonder if it was all for naught if the youkai is able to watch your actions from wherever she’s hiding, if the last time you got spirited away to a youkai’s personal realm is of any experience.

The feeling of a spiky warmth crawls up your body, leaving beads of sweat forming on your head as you try to maintain composure at the change in circumstances. Getting caught by a youkai’s influence is one thing, but getting spirited away is almost a death sentence.

Almost, at the very least. Contrary to what the other folks in a similar line of work would tell you, you managed to break out and take care of the youkai against all odds. But it isn’t something you’d go through again. Yet, here you are.

Unfortunately the similarities between the last time you got whisked away and now end at the victim. As far as you can tell, your quarry is more than happy to hole herself up wherever and wait for her placements to do all the work. The stark opposite of your previous experience.

Which leaves you to now. Another suspiciously clean and empty room being your stopping point. What makes this particular room special compared to the multiple previous rooms you barged and darted through in various directions is lost to you. As your main hope was that by running arou

Honestly, Kizin, of the stories I have read from you Unchanging Days was probably my favourite of your works "It’s still debatably with Maf2."

The relationship that Reimu and Kogasa was probably the cutest pairing I have ever read, their personalities playing off with each other making them just so damn cute; You should do more fluffy fluff stories in the future.

The theme I honestly never really noticed more blinded by how cute Reimu and Kogasa were XD.

The one issue I had, which wasn't really an issue, was just not enough sex scenes "I know the main focus was the fluff,” just a personal gripe I had. There just something about a good sex scene between two characters that have great chemistry that makes it all the sweeter “or something IDK.”

I eagerly await Make A Fist 2.

Gotta say this is the sweetest thing I've read in awhile. Kogasa and Reimu play off each other very well

Thanks. I like simple things like that.

Well I'll probably write something else with them in /at/ at some point, but dude there's like 7 lewd scenes in this, about half quite lengthy too. Probably too much!

If the maid girl wants to help clean, then I’m not opposed, but I am worried about the missile Mimi. It seems docile, but I’m still not sure about the danger it could pose. A sentient missile is weird enough, but that’s not the issue at hand.

The glare in the robot girl’s eyes makes me wince.

“W-what’s your name?”

“My name’s Ruukoto, creation of the brilliant Professor Okazaki!” She puffs her chest out with pride. “This is my friend Mimi!” she says as the missile floats above her hand, gazing at me with its lifeless, black eyes.

“Professor?” I point the light away from Ruukoto. “Does that sound familiar to you, Komano?”

The komainu scrunches her face and twitches her nose. “Oh yeah! Miss Reimu did something with her!” she says, staring intently at Ruukoto as the gears churn in her head. “It’s really close. I think—Oh! This girl is part of that ‘thing!’”

“What thing?” It’s cute watching her put so much effort into this, but again, she isn’t making much sense. I appreciate Komano’s help, but she doesn’t have to strain herself so hard.

“You know, a ‘thing.’” Her tail wags vigorously as she jumps up and down. “Uh, it’s… the incident. Right, it was an incident! There were brochures! A-and tourists! Miss Reimu got Ruukoto from that Professor person!”

“Komano.” I gently pet her head. “Slow down. You don’t have to rush. So, can you tell me a bit more about it?”

“Not really. It was a long time ago, like a hundred years or something.”

“I’m… pretty sure that’s not true.” I chuckle and turn toward Ruukoto. “I’ll take your word for it. You said you wanted to clean, right?” It wouldn’t be too bad if she just wants to help, but why was she down here in the basement?

“Yes! Of course!” Ruukoto nods. “Lead the way!”

I ascend the stairs, floating a few inches above the ground. “Let’s see what you can do.”

The party is tempting, but she wanted to enjoy her presence to the fullest no?

Also the idea of both philosophies finding common ground is very intriguing.
