If you wish to live with the humans, you seek a life of honest labor and a pastoral existence.
If you wish to live at that strange temple where even the youkai visit, you have accepted that the dharma transcends morality and would live a humble, if perhaps content life.
To live among the hermits that conquered death, would be to plumb the very depths of sensation and existence to conquer one's self and tame it completely to your will.
To choose to live among the demons of the Scarlet Devil Mansion would no doubt be terrifying, but also completely safe from external threat. It would take a very brave, if perhaps foolish soul to test the whims of the Red Moon.
To live in the House of Eternity would be similarly strange, for the youkai beasts of the bamboo forest have no particular love for humans and those lunar beings would have no love for those of the earth. Nonetheless, one would be safe, and privy to secrets beyond that of our sphere. Perhaps the strangest is that of Mayoiga, the mysterious dwelling of the most powerful youkai in Gensokyo. Such a counterpoint force to humans yet so close to the strongest ally of man in this land of illusion.
To live in the Forest of Magic would be of great danger as well, for it is to brave both the elements and the fauna, so changed by magic that they would seem alien if not deadly already. Even if I could meet those who I could consider friendly, would they protect or shelter such an outsider?
But to live with the tengu of the mountain...that is one of trials and action.
I would wish to live there, to strive for something greater and to partake of such wonderful awards.

Hmm... Probably i will find Marisa on the temple, then ask her if can learn magic or be his "disciple". Since she is like that, probably she will deny at first but at the end she'll probably accept.

Obvious mistake here but I'm gonna pick on you because of it, Marisa is a boy ur a faget lmao et cetera.
But seriously, I don't really think she has the time for that,but maybe Marisa could take a random human as more of a partner in crime. Or maybe just someone to help her pick 'shrooms in the forest.
One thing leads to another, that's where you ask her to teach you magic. You know, for self defense and all that, the Forest of Magic is a pretty dangerous place after all.

Not this one, no, Aya is the fastest and produces the finest quality print and photos, so she's got nothing to be unsure of.

All I do is work about 14 hours a day in a metal box. Everyone else my age seems to be such cheery and responsibility free fairies and colorful phantasms in comparison.

I don't care. I'm gonna go and fly around while destroying everything in sight. I'm gonna murder everyone without a second thought and cause so much terror and chaos. I will be a ruthless killing machine. Yukari ain't got shit on me.
