By the time Hana could really take in Aya’s expression the tengu was looking at her with that same disbelief in her eyes, though now there was no laughter. Hana could barely even hear her voice, “Hana-chan… what is your reason to believe that…?”

Still reeling Hana could only make the suggestion blankly, “ah well, it’s simple. I just started feeling that Yukari-san had some kind of ulterior motive than what she used to tell me of punishing father and all. The more I looked into it the more I learned of how she would always accost father without my mother around before they divorced and all.”

Using the remaining bit of her mental faculties she continued while censoring just enough of the true details with her monotone voice, “There’s simply no reason for her to do all this just to punish one man even if he broke a promise to her, it breaks all of the taboos of Gensokyo and all, and it is entirely irrational…” Hana breathed in, “It’s… the more I learned of her methods, like when I spoke to Kosuzu-san about her experiences with her before, the more I realized that the only reason she was keeping father caged was for herself… I can’t ignore my gut that’s telling me the cause of all of this is that Yukari-san is obsessed with father. So, until she gets what she wants or is denied it she won’t kill me or she’d risk losing him.”

Hana couldn’t, or didn’t care to make out Aya’s expression that settled over her face. Hana was in her own little world, a world of coming to grips that her own father impregnated, and got a rumor-mongering crow tengu of all youkai, so insanely devoted to him. All Hana knew is that the room went silent, Aya wasn’t laughing and even Aunn who already knew the situation loosely didn’t make a peep.


It didn’t take long for Aya’s binds to be removed, the package of food left on the table, and Hana to be ushered by Aunn into a hot bath. Aya left shortly after the conversation ended, she herself didn’t seem to want to say a word either. It really didn’t help things that Aya didn’t make fun of her supposition, though at least she agreed to arrange a meeting between Ran and Hana.

In bed now, Hana couldn’t help but let a whimsical thought take over. Tengu did lay eggs, right? Would Aya be okay birthing four eggs? It must look amazing… She’d ask later if she could, for now she hugged her dear sister and let sleep take her.
