Eirin It was a beautiful clear day in Eientei. The wind rustled slightly in the bamboo of the forest, and Eirin Yagokoro was bored out of her mind. None of the rabbits had injured themselves lately, Kaguya and Mokou hadn't mauled each other in a while, and nobody had come to her yelling "Help me, Eirin!" in a week. She had actually gone so far as to set up a small lemonade-stand-looking thing out front, with a bench set up in front of it. She was seated on a comfortable stool, leaning forward slightly with her elbows on a complicated-looking textbook that rested on the stand in front of her. A large parasol she had set up protected her delicate features from the sun, and a large sign above her read, "Psychiatric Help, 5 Yen", painted on in neat handwriting, with a piece of paper hastily tacked on that added in much messier writing, "or free if you're really crazy". And so Eirin waited for customers, or for someone to come by and yell at her, or anything really to happen as a result of putting this up. Hopefully someone would come by and make her day more interesting. After all, half of Gensokyo could use psychiatric help anyways. |

Without much warning, a loud sound suddenly filled the air, almost whirring. Those outside of gensokyo, or familiar with such technology, would probably compare it to a comparatively high-pitched formula one racer. Rustling trees and leaves could be seen as a rather distinct looking fairy sped along, her spiral-shaped wings whirring and seeming to spin like wheels into themselves, even if just from appearances they didn't actually change, nor did the spirals themselves rotate.
Once she was properly in view, the fairy leaned backwards, rather slowly decelerating given how fast she was going - several seconds later, she came to a complete stop, perfectly in front of the doctor.
"I HAVE BEEN TRAVELLING FOR FIVE HOURS, THIRTEEN MINUTES, EIGHTEEN SECONDS, NINE-HUNDRED FIFTY-SIX MILLISECONDS. SPEED IS EQUAL TO ONE-HUNDRED AND TWELVE KILOMETERS PER HOUR, THEREFORE I HAVE TRAVELED APPROXMIATELY FIVE-HUNDRED EIGHTY-FOUR POINT EIGHT FIVE SIX FOUR OH EIGHT-RECURRING NINE KILOMETERS.
I AM LOST. HELP."

Eirin Eirin stared rather blankly, and continued to sit still where she was, not even flinching as the fairy approached and then stopped short of running into her. She patiently followed the random math that the fairy blurted at her, waiting for the obvious statement that was surely going to follow... and there it was. Fairies hardly counted as sane, so the Lunarian supposed she couldn't charge her for this. "If your path was linear, then turn around 180 degrees and travel at the same velocity and duration. You should end up back where you started. If your path was not linear, then you're in Eientei and I can call a rabbit to show you through the forest," Eirin said, not bothering to take her elbows off the stand. She hardly needed to use her professional demeanor for a fairy. |

Rei fidgeted, chewing on her thumbnail and muttering some seemingly random maths to herself in effort to calm down. She continued to shout - one could tell by her tone of voice - but she still only had a slightly raised volume compared to a normal-sized person talking. "PATH WAS NON-LINEAR IN ATTEMPT TO MAP SURROUNDING AREA. RABBITS ARE WEIRD, I DON'T LIKE THEM."
Rei fluttered forward, her wings continuing to make spiraling motions as she rested down on the desk, folding her arms and taking a moment to find the mathematically best way to hold her chin at the same time.
"YOUR DRESS IS INAPPROPRIATE, BIG LADY! I DON'T LIKE IT VERY MUCH." Rei nodded, as if she had reached some incredibly profound conclusion. Clearly this was very important, as well as being completely undeniable, hard truth.

Eirin Eirin almost had to lift a hand to her mouth to stifle a tiny amused sound at the fairy's comment regarding rabbits. Eirin personally had no qualms with them, seeing as her assistant was one, and an associate of hers not only was one but commanded a formidable number of them, but... the way the fairy had said it. Most people considered Eirin to have an awful sense of humor. Really, she just rarely if ever let it show when she was amused. She didn't have time to comment on that, though, as the fairy proceeded to evaluate her clothing of all things. It was hard to earn a truly stunned expression from the Lunarian, but Rei had managed it, though Eirin quickly shook the surprise off. "...And what, little fairy, is so 'inappropriate' about my dress?" Eirin asked in the same calm, even tone, not sure whether she ought to be offended or start actually laughing at the absurdity of this situation. |

Rei shuddered a little. Just how could somebody be so...
"I-I-IT'S SO WRONG!! T-THE COLOURS ARE IN STUPID ORDjavascript:add("","")ER THAT MAKES NO SENSE, THE LINES AND DOTS ARE UGLY AND RANDOM AND I HATE THEM, AND THE STUFF AT THE BOTTOM DOESN'T MAKE SENSE IT IT IT..!!!"
The fairy dropped to her knees, sniffing once starting to bawl loudly in an overly cartoon fashion. It was, admittedly, rather adorable to watch, if inconvenient.
"I-I don't wanna see it anymoooore..."

Eirin Eirin started to say something, then paused. What... what was she even supposed to do with that? "I'm... sorry you feel that way? The lines and dots aren't random, though, they're constellations... and the 'stuff' at the bottom is... it's related to magic... I suppose if you don't... want to see it anymore, you could look that way?" She knew better than to try to explain a complex magical concept to a fairy, so she just pointed off to the side. Well, at least this was... more interesting than sitting there. She supposed. |
