    MARIBEL QUEST

    You are Maribel Hearn, a student studying relative psychology at Kyoto University. You are good friends with Renko, a fellow student studying super-unified physics, and, together, the two of you are (the only) members of the "sealing club." However, despite its description, neither you nor Renko deal with necromancy or spirits in any way. Rather, you spend your free time investigating the possibility of the existence of other worlds.

    As long as you can remember, you have had the ability to see boundaries - for example, say, the boundaries between day and night, life and death, or motion and stillness. While it has been useful on occasion, you cannot say that you have truly spent the effort to develop the skill, as it is not something you feel was necessary, especially considering the splitting headaches you get after using it for extended periods of time.

    Renko dragged you out this afternoon to some art museum. While the exhibits were interesting, they were not particularly noteworthy. Still, before you go to bed that night, an painting from one of the displays comes into your mind, unbidden. You think of...

    [ ] A fan, swaying with an invisible breeze, surrounded by butterflies and cherry blossoms.
    [ ] A sharp, elegant blade which cleaves everything in its path.
    [ ] A fiery pheonix, ascending into the heavens, mouth opened in silent rage.
    [ ] A gigantic fox with nine tails, face twisted in an angry snarl.
    [ ] A set of tangled iron rings, tumbling down a seemingly endless flight of stairs.
    [ ] A single white lotus, floating in the middle of a dark, tranquil lake of unknown depth.
    [ ] A half-finished canvas, tantalizingly incomplete.


    EDIT: Oops. I accidentally some names.

    Its was rather nice to see Maribel living with Byakuren and Mokou, but its only logical to try something different this time.

    No idea.
    [ ] A sharp, elegant blade which cleaves everything in its path.
    And I am probably mistaken about idenity of this being.

    White Lotus is the theme of one touhou, the blade is a rather famous sword of a pair used by another... Canvas is...

    Mind giving a name? The only blades I can think of that famously cut through anything is Excalibur (which is a lone blade) and Kusanagi (part of the three regalia of japan, of which neither of the others are blades).

    But the things that that blade are close to none, and so presumably exist. [/arguing even though he's wrong]

    Thanks, that should have been obvious but somehow wasn't.

    And then you are Yukari.
    ...
    Because Maribel totally was Yukari in a first go. Most likely, at least.

    I was really hoping Maribel quest would at least reach the point where Mokou would find Maribel again. It would have been such a lovely and emotional reunion. Anyway~

    It seems that the white lotus is winning so far. I'll start writing now, but if there's anyone who hasn't voted yet, don't let that discourage you from voting.

    The option regarding the half-finished canvas was the option to resume from where we left off last time.
