Ecthel stood up, and he kept on walking until he sees a nearby group. Upon further inspection of the group, he looked at the woman with the violin. Ecthel started to walk slowly toward the group, and said to the woman with the violin, "Hey... I just heard a beautiful voice somewhere. It sounded like someone is singing, and I wanted to know who sang that beautiful voice."
Ecthel was getting a bit nervous upon saying these words.
Shutdown sequence initiated."While I certainly don't have to answer," Shiori replied, her tone amiable yet simultaneously biting, "You seem to appreciate music, which I'm always happy to hear. The voice was from one Mystia Lorelei, who was in pursuit of a fairy moments ago. I wish she would've stayed, she has a nice voice and I would've liked to play my violin to it."
She paused for a moment, and then added "Oh, right, you haven't seen anybody dressed in all dark colors, have you?"
"Oh, dear. The toad, the monkey, and the dog have all screwed up.""Ah, no!" Ecthel replied, "I did not see that person dressed in dark colors!"
Ecthel said another thing, "Thank you! Mystia has a nice voice! And there is one more request... Are we near the Hakurei Shrine? I wanted to visit Reimu because of a certain gap problem, and I would tell her about that person in dark colors you mentioned earlier."

I'll protect them all~" c/
"Thanks..." Ecthel was finally relieved. He sat down on the grass, waiting for the girl with the violin to play her music. "I wanted to hear the music. This is going to be a peaceful day..."
OOC: I'm going to see The Green Hornet soon. See you later, everyone.

Shutdown sequence initiated.The fairy nodded.
"This way!"
She started to lead Mystia to her fellow fairies, darting through the air.

Shiori smiled.
"It's not often I have a human audience. Or an audience at all, really," she said, readying her violin. "This should be interesting!"
The music youkai began to play.
"Oh, dear. The toad, the monkey, and the dog have all screwed up."Akiko Shinozaki
Akiko Shinozaki flew above the Forest of Magic. Having performed the proper sutras necessary for the time being, she was allowing herself a respite; some free time in which to explore Gensokyo as she wished. So much of a hermit's time was spent in quiet meditation inside that these outings were all the more fulfilling.
Something felt different about today, however. She could not quite put her inger on it, but there was... less of something that should be there, or more of something that shouldn't be her. Or perhaps something was broken, or torn, or weakened.
Or something.
"I wonder if anyone else is experiencing this. Perhaps I should go and check." As she said this, she heard someone singing in the distance. "As good a place to begin as any". She flew to the source of the song, and landed beside the woman.
"Hello" She bowed, using one hand to make sure her ever-present Hannya mask was still properly attached to her. "I am Akiko Shinozaki. I don't believe we've met."
I have a message from another time..."I don't believe we've met either!" exclaimed Kogasa, appearing unexpectedly in from of Akiko and shaking her hand. "A pleasure. I, the perplexing, perky, photogenic parasol, although previously proscribed, now ply this panoramic, pastoral place, providing its people with plenty of philosophical ponderings, although I prefer pranks and punnery! Perhaps we might ponder the perplexing phenomenon that previously occurred. The prolific perforations that punctured the sky, to be precise! Although, perhaps the phenicious predicant might be preferable, being perpetually prepared to prevent peril!"

Mystia moved between the fairy and the newcomer.
c/ "Masked woman flying around~
If you mean ill will to fairies~
The Night Sparrow won't forgive you~" c/
The masked woman gives a little start at the sudden appearance of the umbrella-holding woman. The fact that all her words seem to blend together doesn't make anything less strange.
"Oh well, hello. My name is Akiko Shinozaki." She turns to the night sparrow "Faeries? Oh, you mean this one? No, I simply came down here because I heard a commotion. Commotions tend to have people in them, and I needed to ask a question-"
She turns back to the umbrella-woman, suddenly realizing something. "Wait, I just now parsed that perplexing paragr- wait, let me start over. Did you say something about a "phenomenon"? Something's felt off about today and I've been hoping to find someone who knows about it."

I have a message from another time...The fairy watched hthis exchange in confusion. She was beginning to feel just like flying off to her friends and leaving everyone behind.

"Shiori Kamisaka," Shiori replied without even opening her eyes as she played her violin. Okay, so playing your violin in a crisis like this wasn't exactly appropriate, but Reimu was here, she'd go off and beat people up, and then the problem would be fixed. At least, that's what Shiori assumed. You couldn't blame her for making that assumption, that's what had happened in the past.
"Oh, dear. The toad, the monkey, and the dog have all screwed up."Mystia gestured her new fairy friend to continue leading the way lest relative positions get more confused.
Forever liveblogging the AvengersReimu had abandoned the Youkai to their games, and entered the woods in search of the mysterious person. Before she knew it, she was on the way towards Marisa's house. Perhaps she knew anything...
Join us in our quest to play all RPG video games! Moving on to disc 2 of Grandia!Shiori's placid playing of her violin went uninterupted. She hadn't even realized Reimu had left the area, she was so absorbed in her playing. Then again, it wasn't like she really cared.

The dark figure's path brought it closer then it would've liked to the home of one Marisa Kirisame. But it had to go that way, it was the only path it knew back.
It wasn't aware of Reimu's approach.
"Oh, dear. The toad, the monkey, and the dog have all screwed up."

Ecthel felt that he was near the Hakurei Shrine. He stopped walking, and he started to ponder about the singing voice he kept on hearing.
"That voice... Whoever sang those words... Ah... This is beautiful, I should walk calmly while listening to that sweet voice..."
Ecthel kept his ears open, and he started to sit down to a nearby grass area. He knows that he can keep on walking, but at this point, he would rather sit down just in case if he is getting tired from walking.
