"People often say to me 'Waka- your power is so silly, getting stronger in water? That's so lame!' But did you know...apparently humans also get stronger- or at least, benefits from hanging around bodies of water! Whether it's the ocean, a lake, or even listening or looking at water or showering, sooo take some time for yourself to really quench that thirst- post those funny fish memes, drink a glass of the elixir. Come into the water, yes, I don't bite...hehe, maybe then I can get some more power?"

My concept of negati balan,,,, I wanted him to have wings~

[psi-hate]

I want to draw tsukasa massively touch-starved but so incredibly adamant she isn't until she gets wrapped up in one of Sanae's info-dumps in which results in the Miko tracing along Tsukasa's tail absent-mindedly to stim and Tsukasa finally admits she maybe sorta has a problem

[calico-cars-go-crazy]

I love how the touhou fandom is riddled with transgender folk

[turbobyakuren]

i think the best way to avoid getting the fandom shipper's brainrot (pejorative) is to have Touhou being your formative shipper experience

[sl33py-g4m3r]

It took me a long time to be confident in something finally and the only thing I’m confident in myself about is the vegetarianism~~~~

Currently anyway ~~

That and my reasons why and firm stance are one thing I can say that I’m confident and proud of myself of~~~

A good personal post for once??

That and maybe my independence despite being visually impaired; but that’s easily hampered as I seriously don’t like asking for help to a stubborn detrimental degree.

And associate help with shame for some reason.

But ye I’m so independent that my sibling forgets that I’m visually impaired, lol.

And I’m good at one touhou game~~~~ that’s a source of pride ~~~

I’ve mentioned it before but I’ll mention it once again cause I’m proud of it.

I can 1cc the pc-98 Touhou Project — Phantasmagoria of Dimensional Dream. The most cheaty one~~ tho only on normal mode ~~~~

What’s this?? A positive personal post??? lol.

I beat flower view too but I count that as cheating cause I used a computer which slowed down and lagged near the end of the game so I don’t count that cause via technicality I believe I cheated ~~~

I’ll stop with the personal posts now i swear~~~

you know the hypothetical touhou 26 Waxing and waning of an eternal sea is very interesting because it would create a premise for a dj where reisen accidentally reunites with her now destitute ex-owners and it gets either yuri or very psychological/philosophical or both (probably both)

this is the only of the four asks I got overnight that's really worth answering so let's go since I'm on holidays:

reisen will be a playable character specifically so that she can use her self-actualisation to punch the watatsukis in the face. they don't deserve to do yuri with her

I did a thing.

mmh. i'm trying to get a job for the first time in a bit and i'm afraid i wont get it. the workforce is pretty hostile nowadays cuz everythings just like. shaking up all the time, you know. you think i'll make it? ~ sincerely, eientei's best (and hopefully employed) kon-consultant

Kukuku, I feel you. It's hard to get that bread, especially since the kappa started making all these pesky 'all-the-rhythmns'- but don't worry! As the "most wanted" in Gensokyou, I'd be glad to lend you some words- at a price~ I do specialise in gathering, so you came to the right place! There's a few factors, and…well…in the free market, you must utilise all your tools in a free-for-all.

Start with kon-nections if possible, check around if y'know a guy who knows a guy who knows a guy. If you're fresh meat, it might help to ask around family, friends, acquaintances, your school or other community situation- if you got the ties, there's nothing wrong with usin' them. I'm not toooo well-versed in recruitment agencies, but they might be an interesting choice to flick through- but just check in with other people to make sure you ain't the one getting the short stick! (or at least, if you can get a longer stick elsewhere)

Or, if your scoop ain't working, make the whole pool your net! Speedrun those resumes and chuck em like a paperboy into any and every inbox! After the 76th tapping session on your typewriter, the fear of rejection just becomes benign (those numbers can stack up, but at least you can brag about them? or put 'fast typer' on your resume) So for the first round, do any that you can speedrun- anything that wants you to do those shitty puzzles or rewrite criteria and all that junk? Save it for when you can do it

…And now for those jobs- it's a bit of a gamble- those speedy ones will have all these silly little kappa machines to say yes or no before they know your name. Those ones you do selection criteria on, they take more time, but they're probably taking time to look through too? But talking about yourself can be oh so draining- so whenever you get a question on one of these- save what you're saying for later people asking the same question. Have a big scroll of how fantastic you are.

As for a little spice…well, I'm not saying to -lie- buuut dress yourself up. You love stealing an extra candy apple at a festival? 'Quick-witted and a fast-learner specialising in resource management.' Got involved in a black market and crashed the economy? 'Expert financial analyst with an eye for detail and graphic design. Experience in customer service and operating as an intermediary between divisions.'

It's quite the fun and optimistic game, showing off your absolute best and truly being the ultimate gaslighting girlboss charmismatic consultant you can! Know what you're worth, know you are hot stuff even if those pitiful robots don't, and I know you claw and stumble your way into something!

You can do it, just remember: Kon-sult, Kon-spire, Kon-trol!

[tribow]

did you ever have that ubiquitous touhou experience where you were crushed by the angst behind maribel and renko's implied future?

Mmmm, that all depends on what I think Maribel and Renko's implied future even is. I've considered multiple things, but for the most part I haven't really thought that far ahead.

Somewhere down the line, yeah, something actually terrible could happen to Maribel, separating her from Renko. I'm sure it's something Renko worries about. What would she do if Maribel unintentionally spirited herself away somewhere? Chilling to think about really.

However, I'm a bit more positive about the two. Maribel does seem to be getting better at managing her own abilities and Renko cooperates very well with her. Heck, I could imagine in the event the two really do get separated, Renko would try everything in her power to cross boundaries even if she can't observe them herself.

If there's one character who can find someone in the middle of nowhere it'd probably be Renko.

Touhou Lyrics: The Positive and The Negative

(SPEAKING, FEMALE)

Come around everyone, i have a story to tell

This is a story that will last a lifetime

A story of a maiden named Reimu Hakurei

And the beginning of her tale in the world of Gensokyo

Now is she ready for the story of Eastern Wonderland

(FEMALE)

Every day and every night the prayers get more responsive

Would you take a dimesional dream over the lotus land

Is this the mystic square or is it the psuedo paradise

Fighting the Devil you'll never have time to look at the blossoms

(MALE)

Spend too much time flower viewing and youll end up missing power

The night is eternal when you shoot at the faithful land

In the subterranean world the wars are unidentified

Spoil the desires of a rhapsody or a masquerade

(BOTH)

This is our hisou, our ibun, and our deal

Its impossible, and legendary, and it will leave our legacy

The common flowers shine as bright as the four seasons, leaving but a creature of a violet market with an curious hermit, a forbidden sinner, and a detective lotus grimore

[yamayuandadu]

I do not normally make fun of fan translations but absolutely nobody translates it like this. "Immortal" is the consensus position and there is no real reason to be more pedantic in touhou prose scanlations than in academic treatments of daoism, especially when your "accurate" translation isn't even correct.
