Ah... hey everyone, it's Ambrose. I was Milo for a while there but I'm back to being me and one hundred percent less tree-like. So, I've gotta ask do we uh. I mean, some other folks've gotta be wondering too so--

[ a slight pause, then in a rush: ]

What's the least harmful way we can test for immortality? Cuz I wouldn't put it past the Arcana to leave people stuck with that.

[ he's totally ~~not~~ asking for a friend, okay. ]

Speaking of Arcana: I'd like to meet with all the folks who've been Marked by the Fool - he calls himself Don Orlea - so maybe we can coordinate or. Something. Dunno if we want to do it all together or what but either way, I'll provide snacks.

[ because reasons. complicated is just... a thing. everyone has their issues and situations. ]

Huh. Nifty. I didn't run into any until I started Traveling, and then just ran into all kinds of interesting folks. What's your home like?

[ he's trying to be polite okay. ]

[At it again with the big questions...]

It's a closed-off fantasy space where any existence that's been rejected by the outside world can still exist. So, because people don't believe in youkai out there, I have to deal with all kinds of strange youkai in Gensokyo.

[ it's how he doooo~ ]

...I'm from a place called the Outer Zone which a lot of folks think is full of impossible stuff. So we have that going on. What's a youkai?

[Oh! Maybe she can get to this one before it's too late, and he gets filled with pro-youkai propaganda.]

Youkai are creatures that prey on humans. Some of them are content to terrorize people, but the really bad ones actually attack humans, or even eat them. You need to keep your wits about you dealing with those guys.

[ oh gods that sounds hideous. ]

Yeah, that definitely sounds like things I'd want to steer clear of. How d'you recognize them? Are they monstery or... wicked folks?

Sometimes they have weird ears, or horns, or no legs, or something else that makes them easy to recognize. Some of them look pretty much just like humans, though.

Okay, thank you, I'll keep vigilant.

So, ah... welcome, I guess, to the Fool life. Can I have-- no, may I know your name?

[ because we know what happens when folks give/take names, Leonardo. ]

Reimu Hakurei. I'm a youkai hunter, so if you see anything like that, let me know.

I absolutely will, Reimu, thank you for the warning.
