Disclaimer: Touhou belongs to Zun, and the only things that belong to myself would be Usagi the Mimic, and Moegi the Japanese Beetle. Everything else belongs to their rightful owner.

A/N: I think I've realized one of my most prominent issues. I so randomly decide to describe the look of the characters- even those who need describing see that treatment! Thus far, I have described next to none of the various OCs I have used. I say next to because I described Moegi at one point, as well as Usagi. Actually, twice have I described Moegi, I do believe. Numerous times have I described Usagi, however. At the same time, I have skipped over describing Jack and Achi! Those are pretty important people! Not to mention the autumn fae! I suppose what I'm saying is that I know what to do to fix this issue. I, from now on, will only describe changes to the characters that canonically exist, while fully describing my OCs. ...Of course, this story isn't effected by this change in the least, as there are no descriptions being done, but other stories shall be minutely.

Y/N: My, that was quite the long, and rather ordinary author note! I was surprised that you adressed this issue so... normally. Usually we just banter back and fourth as a bit of pre-story entertainment!

A/N: Well, I feel I must make an A/N section, and I'm sure some of my fans love these pointless little A/N's.

Y/N: I for one find them entertaining~

A/N: Ahh, but you aren't a fan; you are the one giving me access to your world in such a way. I can mold it as I please thanks to you.

Y/N: Well, I for one consider myself a fan of you. After all, without you the world would be far less... interesting. You choose many interesting, and quite original, theories on things. After all, this story is one of your your rather strange theories.

A/N: ...I'll take that as a compliment. Anywho, how about we get on with the show?


You know, I really have been reading a fair bit of late. The last little while has especially been quite busy in that regard! After all, I read a bit in the morning as well. Well, I suppose I shall read yet again. Perhaps I am merely addicted to reading about myself. Blinking at how that sounded, I thought aloud, "...That sounded rather narcissistic, didn't it...?"

Ohh well. Falling backwards, I now found myself atop something comfy, thanks to one of my gaps, and landed softly on my lovely little bed. It's an interesting combo of that memory foam that humans use, a water bed filled with jello, and a pillow-top mattress, or at least that's what it feels like anyways. Quite the bit of genius by the kappa, if I do say so myself. My best guess is that it effectively has the afore mentioned memory foam used as a pillow-top on top of a waterbed. Never have I gone out of my way to look into what makes it tick- I'm no kappa. I don't need to know. I'm in fact quite content in my ignorance of the truth I may or may not have guessed.

With that said, I grabbed for the book beside my bed, and relaxed against the jiggly, squishy thing I call a bed, and began to look through the book starting from where I stopped. Really, there was nothing of not until... Ahh. Right, I had forgotten about that little thought I had had...

I have a brilliant idea! And idea that just might save Sanae, if all goes well! That idea being that what if I were to simply ensure that, instead of hell, she becomes a shinigami? Of course, this is a bit of a last resort, but still. That way she would be spared from the agony of hell, and instead spend a long time working off her evils? I discovered a tome from before time that details a way to do as such. One must simply vouch for them, and say that that would be a good alternative to hell. Of course, there have been very few that have been exempted from the cycle due to this, so there are typically very few shinigami and other such things due to this.

Another thing I learned of from this ancient book of secrets is the boundary that dragons reside within. With enough power, one can speak to them, and call one out to grant a wish. I know that can't be Yukari, but I still have to look into such things, right? Just in case. I mean master is so silly, and I so serious. I would have to change a lot to be anything like her, right?

I furrowed my brows at the vague insult, and began to once more search for interesting things, eventually stopping on a sad time in my life.

Today, when I went to visit the oni in what will one day be called the underground, I learned some pretty major things. Even the deva of strength wasn't enough to take a rogue oni down! Ota and Kasen are both missing, after Kasen lost her arm to the brute! The former was lost due to an angry goddess, and the latter went missing after the fact.

As I skipped along once again, I realized that I'm starting to grow near to the other bookmark- the bookmark marking where I currently am at in my life. Thankfully, the more recent things are the more interesting. By the time I stopped, Ran was up to 9 tails! Just a few thousand years ago now, but things would soon become more active, what with the more interesting youkai coming into being, and the few humans I fancied being born. ...As well as meeting some very irritating people.

Why won't they just listen?! They have nothing to gain from fighting against the moon, and so little to gain! Seriously, whatever could they gain?!

I don't have time to write. I should be putting an end to the war! I have the power, right?!

I chuckled a bit at my first meeting with the three lunarians I hate. Although, admittedly, Kotohime isn't nearly as bad as the other two. She at least tries to understand humans and youkai, even if her methods aren't the brightest.

With that done, I placed the mark back within the book, and set it to the side, before falling into another gap.
