“So you look like crap because you aren't pregnant? Wow, you're a loser! All the other tiny rabbits and inferior human women got it, but you somehow didn't. How?” I giggled, my legs swinging and my hands leaning back against the wooden floor. Reisen doesn't laugh, a surge of anger creasing her frown and, for a moment, I thought I had the perfect setup for a prank…

Then she sighs, her anger disappearing. Adults do that so often, but she's getting ridiculous. I groan mentally and pout. “I look like crap because I've chosen to refrain from having a child, and with that came a bunch of unexpected judgement, pressure, and overwork; a lot of overwork—ugh, it has been affecting me so much I'm gushing about it with a goddamn fairy…” I move and kick her on the shin, pouting harder.

“Shut up! We fairies are great listeners!” She mumbles something—! Then catches my ankle and throws me back, making me roll on the wooden floor… Hey, that was fun~! Snickering, I roll forward towards her, legs landing plain on her side. A shadow of a smile appears there as the back and forward goes on for a while more, but it stops when two nurses pass by, point at us, and mumble something I can’t properly hear; Reisen’s ears perk up and her body tenses, teeth clenched. The next moment, she just throws me away and stops the play. My pout grows big; no fun… “Well, are you gonna keep on whining or do something about it? It's impossible to have fun with whiners like you.” She scowls at me before looking at the babies; they look fine, eating dirt and entranced by Eientei's bamboo masonry—regular baby behavior. “Do you even have something you can do? Like, if you don't want a kid, nothing will change. So maybe kill everyone who bullies you? With my torch, you could go on a rampage AND still say you’re innocent!” That's my best idea of today: tricking someone into willingly staring at my torch; Hecatia-san would be proud!

Reisen lifts a brow, rabbit ears following the movement for a double! “Are you stupid? Because you look a lot like one now.” Gah, she knows! I failed… Eh, anyway. “Well, I can just keep things as they are, but it's becoming too much recently and will only worsen as the next batch of babies is to come by next month.” I hum as she sighs; that's quite the miserable existence. But her face suddenly twisted, as though she were thinking inwardly. “… There's also Eirin-sama's option, which would get me pregnant without the need to partake in something I d-despise.”

“Huh?! But you said you didn't want a child!” I move, now lying on my belly; ah, the wood here is so comfortable.

“Not through the regular means…” I blink, confused; what the heaven is she talking about? “And because I'd still like to follow Moon traditions for this type of stuff, preserving purity until the marital bed…” It felt like a lie, but how'd I know?! I don't even understand what she's talking about! Reisen tsk's, getting up and approaching the babies; those not too lost in their own little worlds swiftly flocked to her. “I don't even know why I'm talking about this with you! Get out already before I explode you for trespassing.” She states that with a Spell Card already in hands, eyes narrowed a little.

Fuming at the unexpected change in humor, I show my tongue again. “Bleh, you're just another boring adult! Full of problems and too stuck-up to have any fun! Enjoy living your ugly life, you not-pregnant, overworked scumbag!” And just as she starts to shoot, I fly away, not amused at the thought of respawning.

Flying amidst the bamboo in search of something else to do, I can't stop thinking about the things me and Reisen discussed. Such a weird conversation that was—so what's making all people unable to have fun with chaos is that there's already too much chaos in Gensokyo to fill a plate and a half… That's ironic to a tee!

It's saddening, however, that I didn't find Tewi there; normally, she finds me first and pulls up a great prank… Hm, maybe she's pregnant too? Will she be able to have fun if so? It's Tewi, so of course she would!

Still, about Reisen and the things she said, perhaps it'd be a good idea to do something about it…?

Like telling Junko!

She'd be thankful and would probably help that grumpy rabbit, and then she'd forgive me for losing like an idiot to Dumbja and her minion!

Giggling, I increase my sleep, mind set on telling Junko everything we discussed—and also make some questions like: What's the regular means to have a child? The Hakurei brat left through Reimu’s no-no hole, so perhaps like agriculture: the babies are planted like seeds and need to be harvested later? Junko will know; she’s so very motherly! Yup, that looks like a good plan!

You did it again, Clownpiece~no wonder you're the best fairy around and can take all the other weaklings in a fight.

Speaking of which, I wonder where the weakling fairies are. I haven't seen them around much…

… Eh, they’re probably having fun somewhere with less snow.
