Re: Maxie Quest ~ Or That Other Adventure in Gensokyo

~~So very late. We should punish her.~~

>"Ah, yes. I was wondering where I'm sleeping for tonight?....

Sakuya leans forward and grabs your shoulder,

and suddenly you're in a completely different part of the mansion, right in front of a door.

"....I finished training with Hong...Uh..."

You look around, Sakuya appears to have gone to finish her other duties.

**Sh-Rumia** Thu Oct 20, 2011 4:32 pm

>"Pff... you're not supposed to lean forward like that, or it'll seem romantic, Sakuya." You grumble.

That done, you open the door and head on in.

It's not very extravagant, just a planj room with scarlet carpeting, a queen-sized bed with scarlet covers, a wooden dresser with a couple of items on it... ooh! What are those?

**Sh-Rumia** Thu Oct 20, 2011 9:29 pm

They appear to be be blank cards... Wait! Could these be...?

There is also a note.

Well this is the Scarlet Devil Mansion...

You really wish you could have some tea....

**Max** Thu Oct 20, 2011 9:52 pm

The Scarlet colours might have some deep, personal meaning to Miss Remilia... uh, what's her surname again? Awell, probably irrelevant.

>Read that note, which may or may not concern these blank spell cards.
Unless I'm mistaken and Hong wants me to make a card deck for poker wednesdays at the mansion

**Sh-Rumia** Thu Oct 20, 2011 11:17 pm

Isn't her last name Crimso- Meh, whatever.

You read the note, which is written in precision handwriting.

Yukari-sama requested that I leave these spellcard blanks here for your personal use.

They are a bit more durable than average spellcards so you should not worry about them being one-use only.

-Ran Yakumo

Yukari is... really lazy. Did she even make Ran drop it off?

**Max** Fri Oct 21, 2011 4:08 pm

Wow, ~~Yukar~~ Ran, thanks! I wish I was creative enough to make some up on the spot, though.
>Put them in my inventory, maybe inspiration will strike later.

>Prepare for bed, and then use the bed itself. Primarily for sleeping, I might add.

**Sh-Rumia** Fri Oct 21, 2011 5:36 pm

You stick the cards in your inventory.

That done, you head over to the bed, which is more or less already prepared, and snuggle up to a pillow after you blow out the candle.

You take not that the moon is full as you close your eyes.

Funny... from the SDM it seems really red...

>'Snore'

**Sh-Rumia** Fri Jan 20, 2012 10:13 pm

You awaken by falling out of your bed.

Oh wait, whereee......

Oh. Fuck yeah, we're in Gensokyou.

And we're in the Scarlet Devil Mansion.

But most importantly, we fought an ice fairy and survived.

Then, nearly as important, we received blank spell cards to do whatever we want with.

~Spell Card Get!~

「Outsider Sign "Aimed for Danger"」

Tiny light blue shots spray out everywhere, except in the enemy's direction. Then, a cluster of darker blue danmaku are shot at the target, followed by two larger red shots, the ones with much tinier hit boxes than their sprites indicate, which are shot at the same time but spaced apart a bit.

>Scrawl my idea onto one of the blank cards

>Exit room, realise I have no idea where I am in the mansion, as Sakuya flash-ported me here.

**Sh-Rumia** Wed Feb 01, 2012 12:18 am

You scrawl your idea onto a blank card and ready yourself for the day.

Once ready you leave your room, however since Sakuya teleported you here you have no idea how to get anywhere and head left down the corridor.

It seems most of the fairy maids are house in this area as you can hear their lively chatter from behind closed and partialy open doorways.

Soon you come to a stairwell that leads down one way and up another.

**Max** Fri Feb 03, 2012 1:42 am

>Down
>Wild Chibi Flandre appears!
BAD END

>Wander up the stairs for no particular reason

**Sh-Rumia** Thu Mar 22, 2012 10:36 pm

You wander up the stairs without any particular reason in mind.
There's another hall here, but the space in between each door is greater than that of the floor below.
There's large windows here, though they are covered by heavy scarlet drapes.

**Max** Fri Mar 23, 2012 12:14 am

>"So many crimson drapes..."

>Is there another immediate staircase nearby?
>If not, proceed down this hallway of mysteries!

>"I sure hope someone of at least mild interest or importance doesn't show up! That sure would ruin this exciting morning!"

Maybe it's because everything is crimson, but it's easy to get bored staring at similar walls almost endlessly

**Sh-Rumia** Mon Apr 09, 2012 10:15 am

>"So many crimson drapes..."

There happens to be another set of stairs, again going up.

>"I sure hope someone of at least mild interest or importance doesn't show up! That sure would ruin this exciting morning!"

You're getting bored of all the red...

**Max** Mon Apr 09, 2012 3:02 pm

>Complete the climbing of the stairs
>Where am I now

**Sh-Rumia** Sat Apr 21, 2012 1:10 pm

>You finish climbing the stairs.

>Oh! You seem to be in the clock tower of the SDM now. Further above you you can see the gears of the clock tower rotating, and there's a staircase leading up to them.

There doesn't seem to be anyone else here right now.

**Max** Tue Apr 24, 2012 9:53 pm

I've committed myself to this valiant path, I must follow through to the bitter end, even if I must sacrifice my life- nay, my VERY SOUL!

>Climb the staircase.

>And check for any windows for me to see out of

**Sh-Rumia** Wed Apr 25, 2012 3:11 pm

You climb up the final set of stairs.

There aren't any true windows, but the face of the clock is made out of glass that you can see through. Taking a quick lake you can see the gardens, the wall surrounding the mansion grounds, Meiling, seemingly awake guarding the gate, and of course the la-

Wait... there's something! A black and white figure coming over the wall to the right!

**Max** Wed Apr 25, 2012 3:26 pm

That's foolish, why would he climb over the wall when he could just use the perfectly good gate over th-
WHAT IF HE'S AN INTRUDER

>Yell at Meiling to stop him
>On the very slim chance that she somehow can't hear me from this huge distance and through a large pane of glass, begin jogging down the long series of stairs to the ground floor. Don't fail me now, gym class.

**Sh-Rumia** Wed Apr 25, 2012 4:45 pm

You yell to Meiling to stop the intruder but...

It seems she can't hear you from here! You start running down the flights of stairs. You reach the 1st floor without any mishaps, but what do you do now.

There are fairys going about your local buisness, and you're fairly certain that it's a straight shot to the center of the mansion from here.

**Max** Wed Apr 25, 2012 7:14 pm

>Look out the front door, see if the strange person is still making their way across the lawn. Perhaps they're just running VERY slowly, like the lifeguards from Baywatch.

**Sh-Rumia** Wed Apr 25, 2012 9:00 pm

You run to, and open, the front door. However the intruder is nowhere in sig-

WHEEEEEEEEEEEWM

The ground under you suddenly shakes as a strange low humming reaches you ears... from dow the left hallway.

**Max** Wed Apr 25, 2012 9:55 pm

That can only be something horribly... beneficial.

>Down the left hallway we go!
