Being truly on my own is a bit of a weird feeling. It's never really happened.

Let it never be said that sometimes extreme brevity isn't the most appropriate post, though. Everything is a tool.

Okay now to step 2 . Mess with Sult and make nero claim he might make a betrothal proposition to one of the highborn ladies, namely Fanilly, Julianna or Marianne. Just for the sake of advancement and status. Should be fun.


I am sure proposing to Fanilly would not go horribly wrong in any way and he would still be fully capable of having children afterwards.
How... disappointing, citing an injury as a reason to get out of such an important duty as helping with limes. It wasn't like he'd even been directly hit by anything and then he was resting in some fashion for the entire journey back. Meanwhile, she'd gone to battle with a spear through her stomach, which was more than a little inconvenient from a range of movement perspective, but it had been so long since she was alive that the paladin wasn't entirely sure what pain was like for normal people any more.

Fortunately, Julianna had hit upon an avenue that hadn't even entered her mind: getting servants to come along and help with transporting the load. This more than compensated for Tiral's choice to be of no use in the preparations for this ball and possibly gave her some assistance in preparing the marmalade.

"Whilst you round up your servants, I will gather money to actually pay for this," Tyaethe stated, belatedly realising that she ought to actually gather some manner of payment rather than showing up in armour and saying that she would pay after the ball. Being charged with extortion would be a poor idea...

  • Name: Houraisan Kaguya
  • Age: Older than Mokou
  • World of Origin: Touhou Project
  • Powers/Equipment: Kaguya's (notable) power is Manipulation of Eternity and the Instantaneous. In practical terms, it means that she can break spells affecting how time flows once she's aware of them. Less practically, it's a really good way to keep a mansion in perfect condition for centuries at the cost of nothing there ever changing at all, which is more than a bit boring. This ability is one of the key ingredients to creating the Hourai Elixir.
    Naturally, as one of the people instrumental in its creation, Kaguya has consumed the elixir and benefits from all its attendant effects, such as the inability to die, fall ill, or not needing to eat or drink. Of course, injuries accumulate and take time to heal, but she's at least well-fed and quite durable anyway, so it's not an enormous difficulty. Being a Lunarian helps somewhat, as she was already (practically) unageing before consuming the elixir.
    When it comes to fighting, Kaguya tends to rely on her vast, vast collection of random items. Whilst for the most part this is a collection of priceless artefacts being used to generate bullets or lasers, two stand out. One for being a robe with the ability to create fire and the other for being an entire temple ceiling. Though for danmaku purposes it can be used for creating bullet walls, practically it's simpler to just hit someone with the thing.
    Finally, as a resident of Gensokyo, she can fly. Whilst she logically would have other magical abilities as a native of the moon, she never seems to use them even when it could be considered a good idea, so they functionally don't exist. It's also worth noting that her beauty is renowned--more than enough to have strangers come to court her and then set off on impossible errands for the mere chance of winning her hand.
  • Brief Backstory: Kaguya was born as a princess of the moon. This can be widely considered to be a good deal, all things considered, and not worth screwing up in any way. She still chose to cause problems for herself by getting Yagokoro Eirin to make the Hourai Elixir with her help before consuming it and consequently getting exiled from the Moon for committing this crime, where a bamboo cutter found her and raised her as his daughter.
    Her beauty came to the notice of the nobility and, not wishing to marry any of them, she set them the challenge of collecting various items--requests that were deemed impossible. Though this was true from the perspective of difficulty, it mostly held because Kaguya had gone and collected all the items herself. One suitor tried to fake succeeding, setting in motion the chain of events that would lead to Fujiwara no Mokou attaining the Hourai Elixir and becoming immortal.
    Eventually, the Lunarians decided that perhaps it wasn't the best idea for their unkillable princess to reside on the filthy Earth and came to bring her back. Kaguya, however, rather liked it there as well as humanity. A way out was provided because Eirin was one of those sent and chose to join Kaguya in killing the other emissaries before going into hiding.
    A long time later, Mokou located Kaguya again and set up the repeating cycle of killing each other for poorly defined reasons, marking the only notable change to Eientei in centuries. Some time later, a moon rabbit came--bringing news of the Apollo landings and fleeing the invasion--and got kept around. The biggest change, however, was on paranoia that the Moon would try and take her back again, where Eirin took the initiative to put the world in a pot so that it was inaccessible from outside.
    As it turned out, this was entirely unnecessary and the strange fake moon attracted enough attention that more people from Gensokyo blindly stumbled upon Eientei. This has considerably livened the place up, along with the spell of eternity being lifted, and Kaguya has actually left the forest a few times. Why not answer an interesting call to help some other world?
  • Personality: Kaguya is both a princess--raised to be courteous and personable--and someone woefully bereft of common sense. This probably explains setting people literally impossible tasks to be her suitor rather than declining outright and how she decided consuming the elixir in the first place was a good idea or even remotely necessary. It also clearly outlines why, despite being regal when the situation calls for it, her general attitude to life is to pursue random whims such as having a hotspring in Eientei or to fall asleep somewhere that bamboo can trap her. Given how many rabbits live in the place, she obviously has a fondness for them and yet refers to every single one as Inaba, even the newest arrival from the moon, when that would work as an accurate name for exactly one of them.
    She does seem to be able to be inventively malicious towards Mokou, such as sending people to be assassins, but on the whole she doesn't take the whole thing anywhere near as seriously.

I'd say it's BST, but we all know that Touhou's don't think of love and stuff like that... ¬_¬


Why have sexual tension when you can have rabbits?
I wouldnt call the fights between Mokou and Kaguya meaningless. They have some very bad blood between them after all. ^^;


I think it's become more force of habit than anything else. Any actual vengeance is long satisfied.

I wonder if her brain would come to a halt if she found out that the entire reason for this absurd choice is self-consciousness. :p
@IceHeart It's not like she's trying for subtlety. xD

I knew the course breakdown at one point, but I forgot. I'll ask my instructor again if y'all are really curious.


I'm curious to how it compares to the networking stuff I've had to do in the past.

<Snipped quote by VitaVitaAR>

Did you want the maids to come along?

*Grins*


Somehow, I doubt the invitation extends to maids. xD
<Snipped quote by Themerlinhawk>

Not exactly a normal, traditional 'school'. xD

I do believe the course's official full title is 'Cyber Network Operator Course'.


I'm curious what the hell goes into such a course. Because it sounds like a really fancy way to teach setting up an LAN. :P
