Saigyou chuckled. “That I can do. milady,” he joked, immediately petting her head once more.

“Not milady. I’m your girlfriend, but more importantly your god.”

He was beginning to suspect something at play with Chen’s shifting moods, but decided to play along. “Very well, my goddess. How may this humble youkai serve you further?” He was still petting her adorable head throughout.

“Well… I’m a little hungry right now. And I could use some catnip to distract myself~”

“I could certainly lead you to the plant, my dear goddess,” he suggested, gesturing westward into the forest.

“Three others? This is certainly interesting~ Do we all act the same as I, seeing as how I’m ‘pleasant company’ to you?” Yuyuko took a moment to think this over. “Three alternates means three Hakugyokurous…. am I correct..? Aah, but to think, if I, or one of my other selves spilled tea on her kimono and crossed borders to another’s Hakugyokurou on their way to change, that would mean they would take an alternate’s clothing. She would then leave, crossing the border again to return to her own home, assuming that the border does not move… and the alternate whose home she ‘intruded’ upon would find that one of her spare kimonos was missing. Yet I have never lost anything. It’s a confusing matter, indeed~” Maybe if she kept thinking, she’d eventually figure it out. She hoped it stayed interesting enough to keep her thinking about it. Who knows, maybe she’d get something out of it~

“I’m quite sure no one will take that lightly, and it shouldn’t ever come to that anyway. I don’t really like her attitude either, but I deal with her~ Helps build my ignorance quite a bit,” she giggled a bit before carrying on. “But if I were to speak in a serious manner, it helps with my endurance.”

“Spring certainly is in full robust right now, isn’t it?” The ground was a pink blanket, and more waves of petals kept falling around the two, seeming as if it would never stop. “However, the weather feels like summer,” The ghost princess brought out her fan and opened it in one smooth movement and began fanning herself. “An electronic cooler or fan would be nice, mm?”

He simply listened to her whimsical rant, used to hearing them from his time in Hakugyokurou. You never interrupted her during these. It was practically a law. As she shifted the subject he nodded in understanding, chuckling at the joke along with her. “I see. I would not mind speaking to her when her mood improves. Well, if it does, anyway.”

Saigyou disliked the fact that summer was less than a month away. “Yes, and the heat is getting annoying with this body. And what is an electric cooler, exactly?” Saigyou was no good with machines. “I can surmise its use, but I cannot imagine what it looks like.”

He bowed. “Thank you very much, Chen.” Saigyou entered with a smile. “Where shall I sit?”

“Follow me. And make sure not to wake Yukari-sama up.” She leaded him towards the main room, pointing to the table. “Sit down, I will come back with the tea.”

Saigyou gave another bow in thanks, quietly moving to take a seat. “Something sweet, if you could,” he requested politely.

“So many people coming to visit… is it all really worth it? What purpose could all of you possibly have here? Nothing, that’s what.”

“Well, if I am where I think I am,” Saigyou mused, “Then I certainly doubt I will be as close to heaven as I am now, especially given my past.” He looked her over wit a raised eyebrow.. “Now then, who are you?”

“Strange… but no one gets into Heaven now, anyway. From what I’ve seen, at least. Tenshi doesn’t like strangers all too often.” Iku folded her arms, wondering how they even got here. “Iku Nagae, messenger to the Dragon Palace and newly directed gatekeeper to Miss Hinanawi’s room. The better question would be, who might you be?”

A servant of royalty? Well, that immediately warranted respect for him. ” A pleasure to meet you, Miss Nagae. I am Saigyou Ayakashi, cherry tree youkai. If the name is familiar, yes, that cherry tree youkai.”

“…No, I do not,” Saigyou hesitantly said. “I have seen it done once, but I was not paying much attention in the past.”

She lowered her head. How could she forget this ? She saw her mistress doing this to her… It couldn’t be that hard, right ?

“Hmm… we could ask Ran, then,” he stated resolutely, nodding sagely.

“Nah. It’d be too difficult.” She stated, the M!A wearing off. “So, boyfriend~ What are we gonna do ?”

“Hmm…” He was unsure of what to do exactly; he wasn’t too keen on overstepping his boundaries with such an important person. “…You decide, Chen.”

“At least I’ve got someone to be with. Or at least someone to praise me.”

Saigyou chuckled. “That I can do. milady,” he joked, immediately petting her head once more.

Chen nodded to the tree youkai, smiling. “Good day, Ayakashi-san. Are you here to visit Yukari-sama ?”

“I am actually here to check up on you, actually,” Saigyou corrected. “I take it that things are well?”

“Things are well indeed. Do you want to come in for some tea ?” She proposed, freeing the way by turning and presenting the inside of the household with her left arm.

He bowed. “Thank you very much, Chen.” Saigyou entered with a smile. “Where shall I sit?”
