[X] A tiny person.

---

"Ugh... my head..."

He groans. Something seems to be shaking him awake. It feels small and soft. Grimnír slowly opens his eyes. Someone smiles at him. It's a familiar tiny person. Oh wow, it's her again. He blinks a few times to make sure that he isn't seeing things.Then, he turns to the other side and closes his eyes once more.

"H-hey, that's rude! Is that how you thank me?"

He sighs loudly before sitting up. His head still aches a little, but other than that, he seems unhurt. He takes a quick glance around him. Seems like he is back in his room at Eientei.

"What happened?"

"Hmph!" Yukari pouts at him. "Maybe you were kidnapped by fairies? Perhaps you got attacked by man-eating plants? Who knows?"

He stares at the irritated youkai girl. The fact that she could fit in his hand right now only made her angry face look cuter. He couldn't help but smile a little. For a moment, he feels tempted to ruffle her hair, but his wiser side reminded him of several reasons why that would be a bad idea.

"Sorry about that. Still feeling disoriented. Can't remember much after I passed out."

She turns to him, still frowning a little.

"Do you want Eirin to check for injuries?" she says.

He shakes his head.

"I'm fine, I think. I guess you brought me back here after you found me unconscious?"

"Hmph!"

She still looks irritated.

"Er, sorry about the reaction earlier. I thought that you might have been planning something again."

"Plotting and scheming... is that how you all really think?"

He stares back incredulously. She has an almost pitiable expression upon her face. Unsure of how to react, he decides to just change the subject.

"A-anyway, it's good to be back," Grimnír says. "Any trip you can walk away from is a good one."

"..."

"How are the repairs? Is there anything I can do to help?"

Something glitters in Yukari's eyes. She pulls out her fan and covers her mouth.

"The repairs? Who knows? Who knows~"

"..."

"Anyway, I'll be tagging along for a while~"

The tiny girl hops into his 'front pocket' once more. Before vanishing completely, she pokes out her head and winks at him.

"Don't tell the others that I'm here."

Then, she vanishes into his robe. He plants his palm on his face for a moment, wondering what she did this time.

"..."

After grabbing his staff and sack, he heads out into the hallway. Eientei is pretty large, but the damaged portion shouldn't be too hard to find. Alice and/or Marisa might still be working on it. He could also talk to the lunarians first. Then suddenly, his stomach grumbles.

[ ] Look for Alice.
[ ] Look for Marisa.
[ ] Look for Reisen.
[ ] Look for Dr. Yagokoro.
[ ] Look for Steak, er, Food.
[ ] Wander around aimlessly.
[ ] Custom
