Hey Anon who's writing Kogasa stories, they're really cute! I wanted to write my own little tale based on your stories with my favorite 2hu, I hope you'll like it!

Kogasa twirled her umbrella, enjoying all the gorgeous warmly colored leaves falling around her. The pathway up the Youkai Mountain may have been long, but the autumnal trees around and above her made it so much more worthwhile to travel than simply taking the ropeway.

And worthwhile the trip was sure to be! Kogasa gripped the vouchers in her left hand tightly. Sanae was such a great friend, and had managed to secure her a special one-on-one meeting with THE Yasaka Kanako, goddess of the mountain! And for only 12 easy donations plus faith, it was a steal of a deal! The cheery umbrella had already memorized all of the things she would ask the goddess about, all the blessings she would hope for! Oh, wait until her husband heard about this!

Finally, Kogasa's long trek met its end, at the summit of the mountain. Sanae had seen her approach and rushed over to greet her guest, offering her some respite, a quick bath, and a meal. After some quick rest and recuperation, and ensuring her umbrella looked its absolute best, Kogasa was finally brought into a grand imperial room within the shrine.

There the purple haired goddess sat... floated. Her eyes were closed, but opened as Kogasa approached and sat before her. "Ah, so you're Sanae's young friend, aren't you? Welcome." Her voice was deep and powerful, yet it spoke with an air of casualness to it. It made Kogasa feel welcome, even before such a powerful presence. "There will be much more time later tonight and tomorrow for pleasantries, so let's skip to business, shall we? What are the things that trouble you, that only a god may assist you with? Are you seeking ways to become more powerful? Curses for your enemies? Or perhaps, you se-"

"Oh, it's nothing like that Miss Lady Kanako!" Kogasa spoke up, feeling so comfortable in this casual god's presence that she could interrupt her. Thankfully, that feeling was right, Kanako was easygoing with that stuff. "You see, I had actually came to seek some relationship advice from you!"

"A-Ah, relationship advice?" A touch of nervousness seemed to coat Kanako's voice now, but the umbrella failed to pick up on it. Well, she couldn't turn away the youkai now, especially in this season where worshipers were so hard to come by. "Well, there are no realms where a god's insight cannot help..."

"Wonderful, thank you ma'am!" Kanako cringed hearing 'ma'am'.

"S-so, you're looking to have advice on how to win over the heart of a man?"

"Oh no, I already have a husband." What. This umbrella had a husband already? ... An umbrella could get a husband before her? "You see, what I was wanting to know is, you see, you know how boys can act really touchy and clingy when they're alone with you?" No, she didn't. "Well you see, my husband, he's really cute! You see, well, I like to surprise him, but lately he did something that surprised me! He appeared behind me one time and swept me off of my feet, and he leaned close! But instead of kissing me even though he was so close, he gave me flowers!" Kanako grew red. That sounded so lovely, like out of a cheap romance book she had read. She wanted something like that.

"Well, it was super nice and apparently he had been prepping to do that for a while! So I want to try something similar to surprise him! But, romantically you know? But I was wondering, do you think boy's like girls that are straightforward like that? Is it OK to be pushy and surprisey with that kind of romance stuff?" Kanako had absolutely 0 idea, and could only stutter. Kogasa didn't even seem to register the non-response. "Well, I was thinking that maybe I could use some chocolate..."

...

Sanae and Suwako gazed into the room from a hidden one near the back. "I never have seen Lady Kanako turn so red."

"Yeah, she does that when this topic comes up."

"I think I'll raise my bet, she'll go through 10 bottles of sake, if this one tale from Kogasa can fluster her so much.."

"10?"

"Yeah, I know this youkai has plenty more romantic tales to spill to Kanako."

"Now you're making me nervous I bet too low. ... I wonder what an umbrella who's so happy and blessed already needs from a goddess anyways?"

"Donations and faith are donations and faith. Though maybe deep down she's just interested in bragging about her husband?"

"Bragging to a god? Oooh, what a scary youkai~"
