>>5419532>>5419564Im actually gonna defend your write in against you because I think that these two dreams flow into eachother perfectly. Wanting to be Indy as a kid speaks to the childhood desire to have an adventure and be a hero. You go to a far off land, explore and rediscover things nobody has seen in generations, beat the bad guy with your quick wits and tools, and preserve the beautiful things you have found while saving the day.
As you grow older you realize that this dream is unrealistic, Archeologists aren't nearly that romantic or adventurous but you still have a desire to be the hero that helps and defends people. The closest thing one can get to that as a profession is Military, Policeman or Firefighter, and as a kid living in the city you either love the police or hate them.
Albert easily could have pivoted his dreams as he grew up, and then stalled on them as one does when figuring out how to function in adult life.
If all this is true, then Gensokyo is the land of adventure that he dreamed of as a kid. The place he thought was unrealistic and beyond his grasp. A place where he can rediscover myths and legends that nobody has seen in hundreds of years, where all he has to help him get out of danger are his wits and his friends. He had a taste of what its like to be Indy the first time he got dropped in. Theres no way he could resist going back once he realized what he was missing. The part of him that wishes to be an adventurer draws him to gensokyo. The part of him that wants to help people and maintain the culture and good parts of society cause him to try and spare whoever he can. Both dreams feed this and work well together.
