Disclaimer: I don't own Touhou.Italic words are Yukari's thought, rest is conversation.
I can never have what is already taken.
In your eyes that constantly darted from left to right, a hint of nervousness and anxiety overshadowing even my presence
"Are you waiting for someone?"
Even though I know who it is you want to see, with every strained passing seconds
"No, I'm not. Hardly anyone come to the shrine at this time of the year anyway."
"Aren't I here?"
"You're an oddball… Making sudden visits is your hobby so it doesn't count."
"How rude. I don't do it by reason of my hobby, you know? It's because I-"
I wanted to see you, my lovely shrine maiden
I wanted to see your face, sprinkled with a bit of annoyance and acceptance
I wanted your company, your whole attention
As the last thing I could embrace before drifting to a long sleep-
"Because you… what, Yukari?"
"Will you miss me, Reimu? Today is the last day of Fall."
"Ah, no wonder it'd gotten colder lately."
…
In your eyes that wondrously pondered over trivialities, a hint of ignorance and forgetfulness I see
Myself,
/Violet gaps that could rip apart reality and dream
Yet not the boundary between you and me/
My pathetic, lonely self,
Oh how I've fallen so deeply in love with you, my beautiful red.
Omake:
"I suppose that means I won't be able to see you for a period of time, right? Or is it the other way around?"
"That's right."
"Good. I can finally not being on guard whenever you decide to pop out of nowhere near me."
"Will you miss me, Reimu?"
"I won't."
"Will you really… not miss me?"
"Of course, not."
…
"It's just one season of the year. And it's the most listless one, with nothing but the freezing cold to boost. Think about it, I would be really annoyed if you harassed me in that kind of season. So shoosh, just go ahead and hibernate, then when you wake up, you can see a beautiful spring creeping up to your feet, wouldn't that be better? If I could, I too would want to hibernate through Winter, but then all the shrine works will pile up and I won't be able to enjoy the cherry blossoms viewing in Spring…"
"You're ranting, Reimu."
"And who persistently started it!?"
"So, you will let me see your face first when I wake up?"
…
In your eyes that no longer looking away from mine
"Do what you want. The tea will always be in the pot for visitors."
I found myself, satisfied with few words of comfort
From you, the one
Dream I can never have.
