"Wait..you did what to Marisa?" Mokou asked as she dug a hole for a suzuran bud.
"I covered her in poison and used her like a doll to fight Doll Maker. She's not the only one who can use puppets." Medicine said, clipping some dead flowers out of the ground and melting them into a liquid mulch.
"Medicine..that's kind of harsh. I mean they both seemed passive enough."
"Love Witch threatened me yet again, so I blasted her with her own laser." the doll said.
"You copied her Master Spark?" Mokou asked, chuckling. "Good job kid, very good job. But don't let that go to your head." the immortal said. "You and I, we're immortal so to speak. I can't die by any means and you seem like you need to be completely obliterated to die."
"And?" Medicine said. "If someone goes to hurt me or anything or anyone I care about, I'll hurt them. Heck, ask Love Witch, nearly killed her twice."
"Medi...really, you need to lean to calm down."
"They won't, why should I then? Just because they're not immune to poisons or want some of my flowers?" the tsukumogami asked.
"Well..they can die. I know that doesn't mean much to you, but to other people, it hits them hard. I mean, Alice and Marisa are sort of inseparable. Alice seems dependant on other people and if Marisa goes, who know what the hell will happen to her." mokou informed the doll, scoffing.
"She can find someone else..jeez."
Mokou sighed. "Look, her home was basically blown up by Reimu and she hasn't seen her mother..well..guardian in years. The only way I know that is by listening into her and Marisa talking when Kaguya sent them to kill..well..disable me." Mokou told the annoyed doll.
The tsukumogami sat down. "Least she had a family..." She grumbled.
"Hey, the same thing happened me, I told you what happened Meds. You still have some people who care. I do."
"I know..I know..." Medicine said, lying on her back and sighing. "She just gets me..so mad using dolls as weapons...she blew one up in front of me! She used them as weapons..toys..tools!"
"But..that's what a real doll is Medicine! You and Tsubaki are very rare exceptions to the rule. A doll is used for nothing more than play." Mokou said, seeing Medicine slowly rise up.
"So..you're with her too?"
"I never said that! I'm just telling you what a doll is used for is all!" Mokou said, trying to defend herself on the matter.
"You don't have to say it..I know how you feel. You think I'm overreacting on the matter."
"Well..yea." Mokou said. "You are. They won't get life like you Medicine. I'm very sorry to be the one to say that, but unless you can wait one hundred years with a perfectly intact doll, then there will be more."
Medicine growled a bit. "Mokou..I understand what you're saying..but..it's not helping."
Mokou get up and looked at the now angry doll. "Alright..I see. I'll leave ya alone for bit, okay?"
Medicine nodded. "Alright..thanks.." She said, seeing Mokou walk away. "Well..just us again Su-san. Like always." She said, lying back down. "I know she didn't mean any harm..but still..it doesn't help that much." She listened to her flowers, nodding. "I know I shouldn't be like that but still..huh? She's here?" Medicine said, getting up and casually walking towards the edge of the field. "Hello again, Sakuya." The doll said as she drew near.
Sakuya waved gently, smiling. "How are you feeling today Miss Medicine?"
"Better, better. How's...I can't believe I'm saying this..but how are Love Witch and Doll Maker?"
"Marisa is still badly wounded from that 'Poison Spark'. And Alice is healing up better than expected. You really damaged them."
"They went after me. You at least dropped your weapons and asked nicely. They...Love Witch scarred the land and Doll Maker...well, she just abuses dolls. They had it coming." Medicine sighed.
"Medicine..you need control that anger of your's. It might get out of control." the maid said.
"Mokou told me the same thing." the doll sighed again.
"Please listen to us Miss Medicine. It's for your best being."
The doll sighed. "Fine..I'll try. Any way you know that I can productively take out my anger?"
Sakuya smiled. "Well, I don't know many ways, but a few people in the village have many ways. Some people, like Hong, use a punching bag...when she SHOULD be guarding the mansion...but either way, things like that were you can physically hit something and it won't be something of great importance. Like the bag, it's nothing special and it's made for that."
"Not really my kind of thing." Medicine said, thinking.
"Some people pick up hobbies. I know of people who make small things out of wood, other's she play an instrument, some paint."
"I could garden, but I do that all the time." Medicine said, thinking still.
"Well, I don't know what else you can do." Sakuya replied.
"I don't either, but I'll find something. Thanks for your concern Sakuya."
The silver haired maid bowed. "I was worried. I'm sorry, though, but I can't stay much longer, Mistress Remilia needs me, i had to take a quick break in order to visit." Sakuya said, bowing once more.
"It's okay, thank you for visiting though." the doll said, smiling as Sakuya blinked out of view. "Two people who want me to try and relax...wow" She huffed, walking back into the fields. "I really should relax..but how..."
"Try walking." A mysterious voice said from behind Medicine.
The doll spun around, making a first and making a poison knife. "Who the hell are you?" She asked.
The woman giggled and twirled her parasol. "I'm Yuuka, Yuuka Kazami. Nice to meet you little one."
"Yuuka...didn't I meet you during the Flowering Incident?" Medicine asked, dropping the knife. "I'm Medicine."
"I think I do remember you. I heard what happened hear over the past few weeks. You really did a number on those two huh?" Yuuka said.
"Yep..and I think you know why."
"I can completely agree. I love flowers and hearing what Marisa did to them is shameful. What Alice did, I really don't have a bias." the flower youkai said.
"Finally..someone who sees it my way." Medicine said.
"People don't agree with people like us, you know. I knew Marisa for a while and, well...she's a brat to say the least. She is destructive, but I'm glad you put her in her place Medicine."
Medicine smiled happily. "Thanks Yuuka! Why don't you stay for a bit?"
"You know, I wouldn't mind that at all."
