Making a Map - Open

[agelessobsession]

Characters: Youmu and You!
Date: August 20
Summary: Making a map of the gardens.
Warnings: None.

Youmu's still a little unsure about this place. Sure, it's pretty and all, but the scenery is so diverse! First the shrine she knew of from her own world, then a cafe suddenly opened with robots and weird gears, and she's concerned about the area she spotted with a million gadgets and flickering screens (really addictive flickering screens). It's all discomforting and strange, and to cope, she's taken to creating a map. High up in the sky she sketched out the general shape of the area, and then flew back down low to begin drawing in the more detailed parts of the land.

She's not the best artist (certainly not), but she's devoted to her work, hardly paying others any mind as she treks through the woods and crudely draws markers for each new landmark she observes up close.

"Seems there was a lighthouse over there a ways..." She tilts her head up to the sky, frowning. "Maybe I should fly back up for another bird's-eye view."

Comments

[nekomikoreimu]

Reimu walked closer to Youmu. "It would be better just to show you."

[agelessobsession]

She lets out a sigh, raising her eyes to look at Reimu. It would make more sense, as much as she hates to admit.

"Lead the way."

[nekomikoreimu]

Reimu nods and lifts up into the air, and slowly starts to make her way east.

[agelessobsession]

She follows after her, looking down at the land to see if she can spot what she's marked. The gardens are much bigger than she initially suspected. Bigger than her own home, for sure. It's a little worrisome, but she puts aside the feelings for now and -- Whoa that is a big tree.

[nekomikoreimu]

Reimu slows down near the tree, and just hovers there. It is quite large, as is the tree house in it. It doesn't look like Fionna is in though. She turns to face Youmu.

"Here is Fionna's tree house. I was a bit surprised by it's size when I first saw it, but I suppose it would need to be big to house a human full time."

[agelessobsession]

"Wow..."

She tilts her neck up to look at the thing. Giant trees don't give her the... warmest feeling in the world, but she has to admit that it's impressive.

"I'm amazed someone was able to build a house in there."

[nekomikoreimu]

Reimu shrugged. "It's easy to build something here. Back in her world though, I'm sure she couldn't have done it alone."

[agelessobsession]

That seems to surprise her. "She must be a strong girl, then. I'll have to meet her someday..."

After a minute, she looks Reimu over, thinking and shaking her head with a smile. "I can't see you building the shrine all by yourself."

[nekomikoreimu]

Reimu turned and just gave Youmu a :| face. "You use the magic dirt here to make houses. She didn't build that by hand here, nor was my shrine built by hand. That was built by that stupid celestial before I got here."

[agelessobsession]

She grins a bit. "You said -- Fiona, was it? -- that she could have built this all on her own." She motions to the tree house with one hand. "I can't see you being able to build your shrine."

She gives a light shrug. "It's not like I could, either."

[nekomikoreimu]

Reimu frowns some more. "You do remember I had to rebuild my shrine... twice. Sure I had help, but I did a lot of the work... If I had to, I'm sure I would be able to build it myself."

"As for Fionna, from what I understand she has a sister, and she helped, though not sure how much help a cat can be."

[agelessobsession]

"Right, of co-- A cat?!"

She looks confused. "How in the world can a cat be a sister?"

[nekomikoreimu]

Reimu shrugged. "I guess she was taken in by a family of talking cats. Cake, Fionna's cat sister, can also morph her body."

[agelessobsession]

"Wow..." Well, that sounds weird, even to a half ghost.

"Well, let's see..." She looks back down at her map, drawing in a shoddy image of the tree fort. "Something like this?" She tilts her head, adding some smaller details, and finally labels it. "There we go."

[nekomikoreimu]

Reimu looked at the map for a few moments before responding. "Meh, it's good enough. You can tell it's a tree fort at least."

[agelessobsession]

She huffs, frowning. "I'm not the best artist or anything, you know, but..." Yes, well, at least it's visibly a tree-like location. The label helps.

She looks down at the map with a frown. "Maybe once I locate all the landmarks, I'll create a larger map... with a bit more detail." She nods to herself, this map really has become a mess.
