Night time, and you found yourself sitting on the edge of the porch gazing up at the stars while drinking some water that had been warmed up. Mima suggested heating water, as that it had greater effects on healing when in tandem with your own body heat. It is pretty hard to grasp, but it has something to do with humans being warm blooded creatures able to produce their own heat, so it kinda makes sense that way?
Kinda...
"...Oh, hey."
<span class="mu-i">"Au...?"</span>
The Komainu girl, still sweeping leaves off the walking paths even into the night.
"Is that all you do around here? Aren't you ever going to take a break?"
<span class="mu-i">"A break...? I wouldn't dream of it. I'm a Komainu after all, I'm drawn to the spirituality of Shrines, and I can detect religion. Just as well as a bird can see a worm! My only real desire in life is to protect nice places like these and keep them safe and pristine! That even goes as far as tidying up, and protecting the privacy of pilgrims! O-Oh... b-but I do sleep, if that's what you're wondering, even a Komainu guardian gets tired...!"</span> She said, finally turning the broom in with one final sweep.
"You do this at... how many Shrines?"
<span class="mu-i">"Au-ha! A lot of them! There's plenty of Shrines in Gensokyo. The Hakurei Shrine here, the tiny Hokoras dedicated to Moriya's gods scattered along the outskirts, and the Moriya Shrine as well! Sometimes, I even seek out Shrines in the Human Village, but they're more... closed circuit? They aren't as big as the two biggest Shrines, also, people there sometimes kick me out for doing their jobs for them, because then they can't earn money that way they say!"</span>
You blinked at her a few times.
Although you weren't so pleased with her allowing Suika to take you along that time, she did block Aya from blinding you with those camera flashes. She seems like a really innocent girl... dog... thing.
