[[WMG:Yukari is a [[PettingZooPeople raccoon/tanuki]].[[hottip:*:Technically a tanuki is a whole different species, but things like Mario 3 don't bother delving into that for brevity's sake.]]]] If she has human ears, they've never been shown due to her hairstyle. Her hat would conceal a pair on top of her head while her large dresses (or [[HammerSpace powers]]) would easily hide a tail. More importantly, the mythos of the animal would match her tricky nature and constant sleeping. The hierarchy of Shikigami even becomes Japanese wordplay. Tanu''ki''->Kitsu''ne''->Neko.

[[WMG: Prior to working for Remilia, Sakuya was a [[SerialKiller murderer]]]]
Time freezing and space manipulation would make it very easy to clean up after oneself; by targeting out-of-the-way places, she could avoid attention from anybody powerful. On one occasion, by pure bad luck, she picked a house full of vampires and got smacked around by a rather irate Remi. Remilia saw the potential for easy meals and offered Sakuya job looking after the SDM instead of turning her over to Reimu/whoever handles homicides in Gensokyo/chowing down herself; when she accepted, Remilia picked a pseudonym so nobody could pin anything on her.

This explains Sakuya's [[KnifeNut fascination with knives]] and skill at concealing them, as well as the SerialKiller theme to a lot of her spellcards. It also might explain why an alleged human is comfortable making blood-based foods for her mistresses - she enjoys it, and perhaps even [[ImAHumanitarian partakes herself]].

* Not exactly. The current form of Gensoukyou is unnatural, a barrier against the lessening of fantasy. The foreign characters could have made it into Gensoukyou before this was necessary. That said, there's nothing stating that Gensoukyou is unique, and the Lunar Capital shows that you don't need a boundary youkai to set up something like that.

[[WMG: Revenge wasn't the only reason Cirno started the war with the faries]]
It was mainly to test her newly developed bullet freezing powers on weaker opponents, once she was confident it was awesome she went for the true targets of her revenge, that infernal Miko and Witch who think just becauses beat her X amount of times they're stronger! The very fact her first action after beating the fairys is going to fight [[spoiler: Marisa]] in the extra stage supports this.

*Alternatively, Maribel is Yukari's puppet, and the true Yukari is yet to appear. When Maribel sleeps, Yukari hijacks her body and gaps her into Gensokyo. When she's done with her, Maribel is sent back but gets to keep the partial memories of what has happened. Because Yukari thinks it's funny to do so.

[[WMG: The reason Alice is so afraid of going all out in the Windows games is because of the events in Mystic Square's Extra Endings]]
Yeah, you're not misreading that; Mystic Square is the only Touhou game to have a proper ending and credits sequence (actually a list of all the characters in the PC-98 games) after it's Extra Stage. They all involve some rather humiliating thing happening to Alice. [[spoiler: Any pictures of young Alice being tied up or as a maid refers to these]]. Under that treatment, who wouldn't be worried about going all out? THEY MIGHT DO IT AGAIN!

[[WMG: Remilia hired Meiling for no other reason but to be a butt monkey.]]
First, SDM doesn't really ''need'' any protection, there are enough competent fighters in SDM (including the fairies) and nobody is bothered enough to attack SDM anyway. Second, if SDM really needed protection, Meiling's level of power hardly does a thing, both Sakuya and Patchouli can fend off invaders far more easily than Meiling. If Remilia really wanted to have the gate well defended, surely she can pick someone with a higher level of competence. Third, Meiling is a melee fighter, or martial artist, which means [[IronButtmonkey she is a lot more "durable"]]. Remilia and Sakuya must be pretty bored by themselves, and Patchouli never ever comes out, so they need someone else other than the fairies to [[ChewToy "play"]] with, and Meiling seems perfect for that role, more so than a gate guard.
