Time continued to go on in Gensokyo. Yuuka wasn't heard from in a while, but she was alive after Mokou's self destruct attack. Medicine lived as much of a normal life as she could in the Nameless Hill. Her time with Mokou changed her, though, in more ways than one. Medicine's tough shell of a personality and short fuse died down and she was more open and less of one to fight without being provoked. Mokou was able to get her to stop hating Alice and slowly learn to be more trust worthy. The two spent a lot of time together and many people considered them a couple, be it Kaguya to Keine to Aya to Alice.

"Hey Medi, I got something for ya when we get back to Su-san." Mokou said. The two were walking in the village. Another thing Mokou was bale to do was change everyone's opinion on the doll. Medicine was now respected in the village for her poisons, which healers and doctors found out could be changed into very powerful medications or left alone to be used as an anaesthetic.

"Oh really? What did you get me?" Medicine asked. She didn't care about presents much, but she rather cared that someone was thinking about her.

"Just...a little something special, okay Medi?" Mokou replied, hearing the doll giggle lightly and cling to her arm tightly.

"Still going out huh?" Someone said. The person walked out of a large building, a book in her hand.

"Keine...shut it..." Mokou grumbled, turning her head away slowly and blushing lightly.

"Going...out?" Medicine said, thinking. "Like a couple?" She asked, seeing the blue haired woman nod.

"Yep. You two are a good couple. Hope it works." Keine giggled, seeing Mokou shoot her a grim look.

"So it IS True!"

"I swear..if you publish that Aya..Gensokyo will have one less bird..." Mokou said, now glaring at the tengu.

"What? Not like I would ever do that...anytime soon." Aya said, rocking on her geta.

Medicine looked and listened, confused. "Wait..huh?"

"Aya wants to tell everyone that we're going out." Mokou informed the doll.

"Is...is that a bad thing?" Medicine replied, hearing Keine and Aya snicker. They both knew if Mokou said the wrong thing it could look bad, that and Aya could use it.

"I..uhm...No! Not at all!" the gray haired woman chuckled, nervously at that.

"So..you two ARE a couple." Aya said, chuckling lightly and pulling out a piece of paper and a pen. She quickly began to scribble things down.

Mokou growled lightly and grabbed Medicine's hand, walking her away from Keine and Aya's attempt at a report.

Medicine looked back, still confused. "Is everything alright Mokou?" she asked, seeing the immortal nod.

"Yea..just wanted to get away from them..." Mokou said. "Plus...might as well show you your present."

The two arrived at the Nameless Hill shortly after their meeting with the tengu.

"What do you want to show...me..." Medicine said, looking at an odd figure in her fields, completely immune to it's poison. "Who's that Mokou?"

"You're present...you see..I was talking to Reimu and she found someone who has a bunch of dolls. She's not like Alice." Mokou explained.

"Not like Alice...so she doesn't use them for combat?"

"She does, but in a different way. She's a curse goddess. Her name is Hina. I was talking with her for a bit and she said she was missing a doll.

Medicine looked at Mokou. "M-Missing..a doll?" She asked, seeing Mokou nod and walk her over. "Hey Hina!"

The curse goddess spun around. "Hi there Mokou. I see you have Medicine." She smiled, kneeling down.

Medicine shook lightly. "Mokou says...you lost a doll? Is..that true?" She asked, seeing Hina nod.

"Yes I did. I lost her a very long time ago. One hundred years to be exact. She floated down the river at the mountain and I lost her." the green haired woman explained.

Mokou sat down, playing with a few suzurans as she listened and watched the two.

"The Higan River is close here...and...that means..." the doll said, putting two and two together. "M-Mommy?" She said quietly, looking up at Hina.

The curse goddess giggled lightly and opened her arms. The tsukumogami dove for Hina, hugging her tightly. "Mommy!" She said happily.

Mokou smiled, looking at the two. "Well..I feel really good about myself." She chuckled lightly, getting up. "So...how are ya feeling now Medicine?"

Medicine kept her grip on the curse goddess, but looked up at Mokou. "Thank you so much Mokou! I don't know what I could do that's like this." She said.

"She just wants you to be happy, is all." Hina replied.

"Are..are you sure Mokou?" She asked.

The immortal nodded. "Of course. Just seeing you like this is the greatest thing you could do for me."

"Thanks..Mokou-chan." She said, spying Mokou blush fully red.

"Um..what did ya call me?" She asked.

"Mokou-chan...I heard some people in the village once and...someone used that to someone they really like and...well...I really like you." Medicine said, turning her head away, shy.

Hina giggled. "Sounds like my daughter has her first crush." She said, looking at Mokou. "Well, I approve. Treat her well okay?"

"I..um..a-alright." She stammered, hearing Hina giggle again.

Medicine smiled lightly and turned back to Mokou. "Thanks for finding Mommy." She said, walking over to Mokou and hugging her tightly.

Mokou smiled, hugging back. "Anytime...anytime."
