“Five years? Why, I don’t think I’ll be any different. Maybe less lonely. Gensokyo has this unusual nature where new & exciting things happen all the time yet everything feels the same.“

…

“Okay. I hope to have a lover by the next 5 years. That’s all I’ll say about the future, thank you.”

“Content? I guess I am content with where I am… I’ve been having new friends and a steady pace of life. I’m too tired for big ambitions…

The only ambition I have is completely reorganizing Mugenkan, and that’ll take centuries.”

I remember when that movie came out and the moment I caused trouble Reimu hit me with the "flint and seal"

“Yes. It’ll take time for them to grow, much like it’ll take time for the land to heal, but I think that all the effort makes it worth it.

All the heroes who worked so hard to preserve this land deserve to know the gratitude of the flowers.“

She looks at Ciel as she gets up.

“That includes you.”

“Very well.”

She walks towards a patch of sunflowers after a bit of searching. It seems the tall flowers tilt out of the way for her as she picks a small box of biscuits from hidden storage.

She brings them on a plate, setting it on a picnic blanket that she set up minutes before Ribbon’s arrival.

“I don’t think so. I’m confident I’m a good judge of character… and I know that anything you’re keeping from me won’t make me love you any less…”

“We all have dark sides to us, it comes with the cost of living.“

“Just a curious spirit… this place had an air of familiarity to me. I can’t recall the last time I visited a place like this. I expected it to be a little less empty. Tell me, are you one of the beings that call this hollow home?”

Yuuka closes her parasol, shaking off the water.

//Ngl I really wanna roleplay as Junko from Touhou

Also i realized I turned Yuuka into Junko with the backstory of losing Elly and hating Shinki.

I know that Junko’s thing is that she’s “purified” herself into a spirit of wrath,

But I have my own thoughts and ideas I’d add to a portrayal of her.

//Honestly, only book scenes I remember are him accidentally worsening a situation.

I remember he fell asleep & pulled the fire alarm, & his group photographs an elbow & the teacher mistakes it for something bad,

Things that can happen in kid’s life if they aint actively staying away from trouble.

but for the most part they do have good intent, such as Mabel freeing the merman. Although it seems Dipper’s painted more selfishly but that may be so he can experience challenges to grow on.
Usually the story’ll highlight when a character goes to far,

So I’m going to think about this for a while

I believe this to be some sort of cautionary that two wrongs make no right and we’re meant to hope he’ll learn & grow

that’s my interpretation, feel free to correct me.

Likewise, the Grav Falls cast are questionable but they’re meant to be trying their best. Mabel & Dipper do get into trouble alot

//How i see it parts of this are based on story narrative.

The one book I did read had Greg emphasized that even when he doesn’t actively do bad things, he is punished, whereas the movies I’ve seen are a cycle of him being treated bad followed by bad choices, till he does a good deed

(OOC: Just curious about this topic, what are your guys thoughts on holding fictional kids accountable for their deeds, especially if said deeds are bad? I've been seeing stuff such as people saying that Greg Heffley is a sociopath or Mabel being a terrible person. I'm pretty mixed about this.)

Yuuka opens her parasol, trying to avoid getting wet.

“Well, almost like home.”

She takes a few steps back from the lake.

“Yes. Elly went in and ran out covered in dandelion seeds that attached to her clothes. I’ve sent her home to clean. I’m confident that in terms of the body, it won’t attach to the skin, though, just the hair.”

“It should be fine. Most seeds will sadly not grow into dandelions, as a majority of Gensokyo’s has other flora that will keep them from growing. Nature will resolve this disturbance.

The soil here’s best for these dandelions, so it’s mostly the seeds that might stay here that will grow properly.”

“Unfortunately, I have a limit to how many flowers I can move with my magic at a time, the excess seeds exceed become too much once they separate from the flower.

We’ll have to for the wind to naturally disperse the seeds in safer amounts. Today’s wind shouldn’t be too strong.”

Yuuka sits down beside her.

“If you don’t want to talk, it’s fine… But I believe that if you try to keep any pains to yourself, then they may not be resolved. Please, let me help. I’m here for you.”

“If you see a section of the Garden that’s full of Dandelion seeds in extremely high density, RUN.

I’ve been experimenting with flower magic and accidentally created a cloud of dandelion seeds. I’ve lost control.
Without my input it cannot suffocate anyone, but it will cling and itch unpleasantly.”

“Well, to begin, I have met a well-mannered living doll named Ragatha, who resides in a circus of an unusual realm,

I’ve also met a kind Lamb who protects her faith from its former deities.

Not to mention, I’ve began to reacquaint myself with my Gensokyo neighbors a bit more…”
