(Yukari Pov)

"Ran I have a question?" I asked my shikigami who looked over to me with a look of concern before asking

"What is it Lady Yukari?" I took a second to find the words to describe what was going on with me before I stated.

"Have you ever felt extreme boredom.." before I could finish she responded with a nod and said

"Yes Lady Yukari are you thinking of causing an incident you know Reimu won't like you making work for her to clean up." I coughed and said

"I wasn't finished Ran." she went to apologize and I stopped her before continuing"This isn't my classic spout of boredom it's more like I feel it due to not seeing someone in a while would you understand what it means?" I looked back to Ran who was shocked silent and after a few moments of mouth moving without words coming out she seemed to calm herself and said

"Lady Yukari you may well be uhhh how to put this…" she seemed to be having a hard time finding the right words and I stated

"Ran say what you must it can't be too difficult for me of all people to understand." Ran nodded in acceptance to what I said and after getting a deep breath she said in a surprisingly jittery voice

"L..La..Lady Yu..Yukari you may have a uh a c..crush on who..whomever you m..might be thinking of." I simply stared at Ran for a few seconds before saying

"That is a possibility isn't it." As I responded I noticed Ran was once again in total shock at my reaction or anyway that's what I guess."Why the surprised look Ran?"

"Well Lady Yukari to be honest I thought you would run off and hunt down the person that has been giving you this effect to try to determine whether or not you're actually infatuated with the person." I chuckled at Ran and waved off the comment with a sigh saying

"You shouldn't think of me so lowly Ran I would never do such a thing much rather it would be well thought out plan if anything." She nodded before exclaiming

"What! Lady Yukari you're not actually considering kidnapping someone because you think you've got a crush on them are you!" I smiled before saying

"Whoever said I thought I had a crush besides I'm not resorting to kidnapping yet." I thought that last bit in my head as I did my best to put Ran back into a proper more cooperative mood. Ran then asked a hint of a sigh in her voice

"And who would be the object of your affections if I would be allowed to know?" I smiled before saying

"Oh who knows you'll just have to see won't you Ran and don't worry I won't be bringing any boys home if that's what you're worried about." my shikigami sighed before saying

"I think we both know I should be more worried about what girl you bring home more than any guy seeing that the most dangerous male would be Rinnosuke." I just chuckled at the truth of her statement.

"Well I'm off to go annoy my favorite little miko for a bit." I waved my good-bye and used a gap to disappear

(Ran Pov)

"I have an ultimately bad feeling." I then heard the pitter patter of small feet and Chen came bolting over to me a smile on her face.

"Lady Ran will you play with me you look down it'll help relieve stress!" the energetic twin tailed cat smiled which in turn made me smile and I petted her head before asking

"Could you go get a room ready for a visitor I'm sure Lady Yukari won't be coming home alone, then I'll play with you before getting lunch ready ok?" she bolted off with a smile as I thought

"Lady Yukari you better know what you're doing!" and went about my daily routine.

(Reimu Pov)

It had been a long boring day as usual"I'm almost hoping for some type of incident to occur today." and then regrettably the ideal of wish and you shall receive popped up in my home.

"Hello there Reimu." I rolled my eyes at the gap youkai who had her usual mischievous smirk before asking blandly

"What Gap hag?" her look became annoyed before saying

"I was wondering if that little friend of yours the witch Marisa was around I had something for her to do for me." I raised an eyebrow in question before asking

"What exactly would this little something be Yukari?" my tone of voice was very sharp and strict like I was conducting an interrogation which when it came to this gap hag it was.

"Nothing much just need her to go get something for me." I looked skeptical at her before saying

"You're lying you could just gap whatever you want in your hands." I could tell she wasn't sure how to continue before I said

"So out with the truth what do you want from Marisa Yukari." there was more than a hint of hostility in my voice at this point and she merely shrugged with a smirk

"Why do you care Reimu besides it's nothing harmful to her just a little errand really I'm just too bored to do it myself so I want to make things interesting and no sending Ran would mean there wouldn't be a good show to watch since she has a strict sense for manners ." I was really annoyed with her but, sighed in resignation no point fighting for a stupid reason like this

"Look fine so why did you come here why not go straight to her house." she smiled and said

"It would be uncouth for a lady to just break into another's home." it was agreeable logic…. if it were coming from anyone else but, Yukari.

"That hasn't stopped you from doing it in my shrine no matter the time of day or hour not to mention anywhere else your not wanted." she just laughed at me with a sick smile of entertainment

"That reason is simple I enjoy your reactions to my jokes and teasing so you're excused along with those others I find interesting." I found this entire conversation worthless and made one last observation.

"And for some reason Marisa of all people is the one person you want to show some kind of semblance of privacy to?" I then noticed my own words and her reaction to the statement was one that raised a type of suspicion so I put things together logically"I need something of Marisa….why do you care Reimu...along with the fact she gives Marisa the decency of privacy it couldn't be I won't ask until I'm sure but, I better watch her carefully now." "Whatever she should be here any second so just wait."

(Marisa Pov)

"Hey Reimu I'm here to play ze~" I said in my usual playful tone when suddenly I noticed sitting across from Reimu was the gap hag I decided to leave them be knowing how their arguments got.

"Ah Marisa we were just discussing something concerning you care to sit down and join us?" I stopped short as said gap hag asked me to come over and sit.I nervously said

"Well ya see I gotta go return some books back to Patch so uhh see ya!" I bolted though I didn't get very far as a gap opened up making my escape into a route into floating next to Yukari who forced me to sit down while I thought"Dammit". Reimu just made the single comment

"Cirno could have called out that lie Marisa we all know you won't return a single thing you "borrow" until you die unless you don't have a use for it or you sell it to kourindou for money." I just let out the remark

"You aren't really helping here." she just shrugged before commenting

"I'm just here to make sure whatever job she has you doing is not in anyway dangerous." I gaped at her monotone expression my life is in a lot of danger and she is brushing it off as if it was nothing because there was one thing that was always true. Anything involving the gap hag is life threatening.

"I feel that this job is something that we should talk about alone Marisa." the thought of being alone with the gap hag scared me but, if it was a job that she didn't want to talk about with Reimu around it may be something fun

"This is a horrible idea but, no risk no reward ze." "Sure Yukari i'm fine with talking about this in private unless you're just trying to get me alone to take advantage of me ze~"If I wasn't mistaken I saw a hint of pink dust across her cheeks making me smile even the strongest youkai in gensokyo can fall for my charm hehe. That's when a gap opened up below me and I ended up face planting into something very soft.

"Ehhh! The Black-White why are you…..!" I noticed I had landed on Ran's fluffy tails in a bundled fashion. The tails both comforted my fall and were super comfy to the point it was lulling me to sleep.

(Ran Pov)

I looked at the black-white who had fallen out of one of Lady Yukari's gaps she had fallen completely asleep and then my master showed herself as well."Well well Ran isn't it so adorable to see you getting along with Marisa." I was about to interject when Chen ran into the room and saw where Marisa was.

"Hey isn't that Marisa hehe is she here to play with me!" she bolted over to the unconscious black-white with ungodly amount of speed and tackled into her effectively waking her up while removing her from my tails.

"Arhg.. the hell was that for Chen!" I could hear the anger in the girl's voice before she bent down. I was about to attack when instead of hurting her like I thought she would she just rubbed the kitten's head and said" Next time you wanna play and I'm sleeping be a bit gentler with wakin me up alright." Chen nodded before letting out a satisfied purr from the petting she was receiving.

"Anyway Marisa I believe we have a little bit of business to discuss about what I need from you." Lady Yukari said her eyes locked with the black-white's who challenged her stare with a smile before saying

"Sure what do you need "borrowed" for you or is there some Youkai you need me to beat down so you can laugh about it, of course I will expect my pay to be upfront ze~" Lady Yukari then nodded no to both options before saying

"Neither Marisa have you already forgotten that if there was something I wanted it I would gap it here for myself and I could crush anyone I want for laughs what I need is something to alleviate a certain type of boredom that has taken root in me." she gave milady a questioning look similar to my own wondering what she could be getting at

"Well what else could I do..for..you?" she seemed to get a pale look to her face as she said"Sorry I'm no prostitute ze~" there was that teasing sound to her voice though it was much less prominent than usual then what she said finally hit me but, before I could raise my voice Lady Yukari had laughed

"Silly Black-White that's not what I'm getting at all though if you want that card to be in the hand I could make some time~" Marisa sighed heavily before in sync with my own reaction

"That card is even in the deck in the first place!" she once again laughed this time at both of us and I did my own sigh though mine was of exhaustion.

"Lady Yukari please get to the point I need to be getting lunch ready." I said while Marisa meekly nodded she waved the comment off to my not surprise and said

"You can go Ran this is supposed to be private anyway." I did a bow while thinking

"For a discussion that's supposed to be private your holding it in the living room."

(Yukari Pov)

"Now that there are no more distractions Marisa what I need of you can you really not guess it." she seemed to be thinking hard about it I loved to see the stressed look on her usual calm and playful face.

"Nope not unless it's something that has to do with pissing someone off." I chuckled and said

"You could say it would definitely make a certain puppeteer hate me just a little bit more." she seemed confused and asked

"What would piss Alice off when it comes to me…" realization dawned on her and she quickly said"you..you're kidding right...right! I nodded no and said

"Kidding when it comes to serious topics when do I kid around besides it's a single little date what is the big problem?" I smirked as she sputtered out things trying to make coherent words until she said

"Wh..why not ask I don't know like Yuyuko or Ran even i'm sure one of them would more than willingly accept." I sighed at the girl I really didn't want to be serious with her but, her panicking was not a good thing so I decided to calm her down like any respectable youkai.

(Marisa Pov)

I was about to continue on my panicked rant when I felt like my lungs were crushed by a sudden pressure I looked up to see Yukari with a satisfied smile."Just her aura alone is enough to take my ability to breathe clearly away she must be showing her power at full." she read my mind or something as she said

"Half to be exact my little witch now to explain exactly what I expect from you." I wanted to tell her to shut it but, I could barely breathe let alone make a smartass remark which even if I could I wouldn't in this situation."you are to meet me in front of the human village at dawn so we may begin our date my dear little Marisa." I just nodded trying to resist at this point could mean my death but, I'm totally going to tell Reimu about this. "Also inform the miko,puppeteer or magician of this and I will consider doing something a little harsher to you as punishment." with the finality in her voice I knew defying may get me seriously hurt or otherwise so I simply nodded in agreement making a forced deal with a devil. "Good now rest up Ma~ri~sa you'll need it to satisfy me." a gap opened below me dropping head first into my couch.

"Tomorrow is going to be hell for me." I looked out the window to see the sun still up and I sighed for some reason I didn't feel like.

(Ran Pov)

I sighed I had heard everything and was surprised to see Yukari to get so serious with the girl I could have stepped in only to be sent away again though this time with a harsh rebuke along with a promise of a punishment."I just hope you know what you doing Lady Yukari."
