Yukari smiled. The defeat of the horrible ruffian Cirno had left her happy, almost giddy. She decided that today was the day to finally host a party that would be remembered for ages. A gentlemanly party, of course. Anything else would be unspeakable. She set about writing the invitations, and chose to invite the most gentlemanly people she knew.

Only a few hours later, the first guest arrived in the ballroom.

"Oh, hello, Aya. I do hope you will be able to find some material for your newspaper while at this party," Yukari said. Aya may not be the most gentlemanly, but she always had interesting stories to keep people entertained.

"Ah, yes. I was in fact just finishing up my writing about your defeat of Cirno when I got your invitation. It truly was a battle for the ages."

"Indeed, indeed. You are the first guest to arrive, so make yourself at home. We have some interesting records of incidents that occured in Gensokyo, with a few finer details not found elsewhere. Feel free to read them."

"Why, thank you, Yukari. Truly you know what I desire."

Yukari led her to the bookshelf, which was highly polished and was maintained by Yukari's fine servants, Ran Yakumo and Chen Yakumo. They were almost as gentlemanly as Yukari herself, which reflected well upon the Yakumo family.

A few minutes later, more guests arrived. Yukari greeted all of them, and eventually the room was full of gentlemen, chatting about their business. But the door burst open.

Hina stood in the door, wearing her finest (and frilliest) dress. She had tears in her eyes. The room fell silent.

"Why... why did you forget me... I am a fine enough gentleman... But even AYA was invited and you forgot me?"

"You are wearing a dress," pointed out Nitori. "I envy you, really. But in the weapons business, you have to wear suits all the time..."

Hina began to cry. "I curse all of you! MAY THE RUFFIANS GET YOU!"

The entire room gasped, except for Hata no Kokoro (the Professor of Gensokyan Cultural Studies), who began to take notes.

Hina dashed out of the hall, and ran out into the forest.

"I feel bad for her, sometimes..." said Chen, who was serving drinks to Yukari. "She just radiates misfortune.

Yukari stayed silent. If Hina had cursed them...

Eventually, the party moved outside to watch the sunset. Time passed, and then the moon rose. Incidentally, it was a harvest moon. The gentlemen noticed this event, and clapped. It was indeed rare.

But a shout was heard from the forest.

Yukari rose from her seat. "It can't be..."

Minoriko rose from the forest and said, "Yes it can! Speakin' of can..."

"No..." said Nitori. "It's the god of ruffians and farmers!" Nitori pulled out a cellular phone. "Ready the Powerful Youkai Warhead," she said into it. "Detonate at the sight of yams."

"Y'all are about to be canned!" said Minoriko, who kicked exactly 80 cans at the party. They dodged easily.

Yukari floated up towards her. "Did you really think you could take us by yourself? There's many more gentlemen here than ruffians."

"Oh, yeah... I thout of tha'..." Minoriko said. A crowd of ruffians floated up behind her, in a line.

"Before you and your hordes attack, realize your formation!" said Yukari, who gapped in a train, running over all of the ruffians.

Minoriko exploded into yams, which attempted to fly away, screaming "I'll be back!"

"Not so fast!" said Nitori. "LAUNCH THE POWERFUL YOUKAI WARHEAD!"

A giant statue of Nitori on rocket boosters flew towards the yams. Judging by its direction, it came from Youkai Mountain. Upon contact with the yams, it detonated.

And so, the party was saved by Yukari and Nitori, who had a wonderful dinner of steak and roast yams.
