The next hour passed in relative silence, Hana’s hics and sniffs passed by long ago leaving only the sound of the windchimes and nibbling of crackers as the two snacked and sipped at their drinks. Hana was embarrassed with herself, why did she always have to get so emotional? Why couldn’t she be more like her father, or even Marisa? They never broke down like this, not so easily anyways.

Hana was holding the now empty earth-colored tea cup in both hands, simply watching the thin layer of liquid at the bottom do its best to keep itself placid. She was doing anything she could to avoid looking at the disheveled hermit in front of her. She drummed her fingertips on the sturdy and simple wooden table, played with the fabric of the burnt orange cushion under her, stared at the tasteful decorations that dotted the walls and shelves…

Occasionally, she’d glance at the hermit like a scolded child trying to get a read on their parent. Fortunately, Kasen was feeling some awkwardness as well, or so it seemed, as she seemed more interested in how the breeze blew between the large circular windows that lined the building rather than engage the young Hakurei in front of her.

Hana was reminded that silence can be as heavy as anger when left to your own devices. Hana didn’t hate Kasen, not really, she did swoop in at the last minute and pretend to be a friend only to once again abandon her. However, she did help them greatly in getting settled in the village, and even now she was helping Yukari… though it seemed not willingly. Hana forcefully cut off the debate in her head of, ‘if she could get away with falling back onto the tatami mats and pretending to be asleep’ by opening her mouth.

The sound of Hana’s voice seemed to surprise the hermit slightly, in her peripheral vision Kasen seemed to shift as if bringing her own attention back to the situation by force. Hana’s voice was as soft as the smell of the tatami under her, “Erm, thank you for the tea and all Kasen-san… Sorry for saying those terrible things earlier…”

Silence reigned again for a moment too long and Hana’s eyes flicked up to Kasen despite the perceived danger. Kasen’s eyes are down and to the left, there’s almost a scowl on her face which alerts Hana. However, after a second, she realizes that her expression is deeper than that, Kasen seems guilty like she did earlier, and was busy collecting herself.

Call it greed at not wanting another spell of silence, but rather than let the silence drag on Hana spoke up again in the same tone, “I know you couldn’t interfere easily… I was taught the rules well, and I know sages don’t get involved easily. It’s just… father used to talk about how close you and mother used to be, that you were like a mother to her-“

“Sister, err older sister…” Kasen suddenly blurted out, Hana was surprised at the sudden outburst but didn’t touch on it as she continued, “Y-yeah, older sister…” Hana cleared her throat, “It’s no excuse, but I couldn’t help but think that maybe someone like you could stop her. I… It was selfish of me to think someone else should stop her when mother took out her anger on us. I hope you can forgive me; all I can do is apologize…”

Hana bowed her head to the hermit, she felt like such a fool for snapping at her over such a thing. As Hana raised her head again Kasen let out a sigh, “You’re right that I should’ve tried harder… I’m a hermit and one who calls herself an ally of humans, yet I chose to stop supporting the ones that needed me most.”

Shifting the cup around in her own hands before setting it down the hermit continued her thoughts, “I don’t have much of an excuse, your mother… she refused to listen, she refused to compromise, and worse yet she increased her vices as a way to cope with the stresses of her life. By the time… by the time I turned my attentions to my own business she was set in her ways, I wanted to believe that she changed after she had you… and for a time she did seem to have recovered.”

A small smile crested her lips, “I know I’ve said this before but, she really was happy to have you. Both your parents were. Regardless of the circumstance, they both welcomed you into this world and fussed over you even before you were born.” Her smile wavered and faded with her next words, “Yes, I knew what happened afterwards. I was there along with her other friends after all, we all saw how she quickly became possessive again as the years passed by and you grew old enough to move independently. You are right, everyone knew that Reimu-san was going back to her old ways.”

Kasen's whole deal is that she can't accept herself and her actions so she chose to split herself into two halves instead of accepting herself and moving on like they did.

Right? theres no way this amazing and devoted hermit is anything like one of those gross youkai!

"sex" without penetration is just molestation, even if she used a strapon it'd just be masturbation with a partner.
Futas don't actually exist so even try.
