"New recipes, huh...?" Mokou mused to herself, nodding her head in understanding. "I can understand that. But you know, it's not as if learning that sort of thing is particularly easy, either. Hope you've got enough ingredients in stock if that's the route you're going to take."

Youmu's confirmation of her status of being implicitly banned from entering her home was a tad bitter, but it just meant that there was one less place that she could check out. Of course, there was the option to have the residents exit instead of her entering, but... Well, that was a rude thing to ask, if her centuries of life had taught her anything.

"In any case... Have you checked out the Kourindou recently? I hear that ever since that incident with the Occult Balls, a lot more stuff from the Outside World has been popping up left and right. Maybe you'll find some books about cooking there. Who knows?"

Of course, her time wandering outside of Gensokyo that time was spent leisurely strolling about, anyhow. Her clothing really didn't fit, but in the end it seemed as if people didn't care as much as she had expected. But honestly, though, that place was seriously strange now...
