Antimatter625 Baring hearts for years from my secret place Since: Jan, 2012
Baring hearts for years
#67801: May 9th 2012 at 12:50:30 PM

I'm going to go out on a limb here and suggest that goliath doll's primary purpose wasn't to explode.

Though I do suspect she filled it with gunpowder out of habit. I'm sure she found it Hilarious in Hindsight.

I write some fanfiction. Satori's Tale is done... but I'm not.

That it might not be intended to explode doesn't change that it can. :3

... I wonder where she keeps her dolls?

In her house.

Well obviously it explodes. Alice's expression when it does probably signifies that she didn't intend for it to do so.

Alice has spent many a month hiding dolls behind every nook and cranny in Gensokyo so that no matter where she is, she can summon an army.

You'd think that some would become youkai over time but unlike a squirrel, Alice never forgets.

I imagine extradimensional storage is one of those "basic" spells everyone learns, like flight.

Because Reimu throws a lot of homing amulets and persuasion needles, and Marisa pulls her broom from nowhere in the fighting games, etc.

Given that it's taller then she is, I sincerely hope not.

And the flying butt attack must really hurt.

So. Let's all pause for a moment to smell what the Rock was, is, and forever will be... cooking.—Cave Johnson

It's as long as she is tall... she'd have to hide it under her skirt, too. and walk a lot more straight.

I think I'm going to stick with extradimensional storage, here.

I swear, if Alice uses her Grimoire again, I'll cry.

I've only managed to reached her third/fourth spell!

Oh yeah, I forgot how incredibly short she was.

She's tiny. I think Alice, Patchouli and Reimu are all taller than her.

I think that danmaku is usually just magic shaped into bullets, rather than the actual items. An immaterial power, if you will.

Then, of course, there is Sakuya, who actually has all those knives. She has spacehax as an excuse, though.

Sakuya must find danmaku more boring than anyone else, arranging all those knives.

@TR Lemme see, it's Red then Blue then the third is Purple, right? Green is the awful one, although I think one of the waves of the fat curving bullets can be avoided by just moving forward towards Alice

I was practically shotgunning her during the purple phase.

Fire, Ice, Thunder, Wind, Light I think.

Or that's her order in Mystical Chain. I dunno.

So, we're saying that Alice stashes dolls all over Gensokyo, in case of doll emergencies?

She's not liable to use the Grimoire again any time soon, due to her fear of failing when at full power.

For Alice, there are no doll emergencies, only doll opportunities.

I think I saw somewhere that she used it to stop time during Imperishable Night but that's it.

... I blame her fear of failure on not wanting to be taken home as a maid again.

It's that one phase where the uses the blue bullets that close in on all sides. The fourth.

I know it can be trivialised, but I can't last long enough to to set it up. Nor would I be able to remember anyway.

It's never really said how the Magic Team stopped the night. I imagine a generic spell for it exists.

No one asks how Yuyuko stopped the night.*
