Patchouli Knowledge Epilogue
Part Final
"Locked Girl ~ The Revelation of a New Promise"
A grateful smile on her face, Patchouli was enlightened to know he would be looking forward to receiving her letters. While reading and being with him were general interests of hers, she enjoyed writing as well. Even if the offer of joining the Coalition came up to them, the violet-haired librarian only wished for a peaceful lifestyle after this, and probably even better than that. Then there was the plans for that eventual date of theirs.
"Two days seems fair enough, so that way, I'll look forward to seeing you again in person. Despite my health, I'm not a picky eater, so there's that," she says casually. She was going to say more until that last question came up. It wasn't a word that she had considered, because this type of relationship was a true first time for her. At this point, she would actually acknowledge that word into their relationship.
"Even if it sounds rushed given we only knew each other for a few days, I have no problem with being your girlfriend. In return, I'll like to know you as a... boyfriend," Patchouli nodded, not hesitating as much on the subject as before. She really did feel comfortable with him, and while he would have a dinner date with her at someplace of his choice, she knew at some point she would invite him over to the Scarlet Devil Mansion for a date as well.
Before she would be able to say much more, an evident grunting noise could be heard from the boundary rift. Possibly their conversation on relationship status had made them forget the young vampire waiting for the magician (and possibly Pietro getting wedgied by Natalia distracted them too). Without a second wasted, she leaned forward to give him a long kiss on the lips before pulling away and stepping a bit forward to the rift but not entering yet. She wanted to say one more thing before departing.
"... see you later, Pietro love."
Another step toward the rift, and Patchouli Knowledge had instantly disappeared from sight as the rift closed behind her.

Two Days Later
Scarlet Devil Mansion Library
In the safe haven that she called her library, Patchouli happened to be busy with things that wasn't reading for once. Earlier, she had written a letter to Pietro, in that case she had the boundary youkai take care of the sending matter. She even remembered the letter's content by heart, proven when she began to recite it, word for word.
"Dearest Love. I promised a letter for you when I left for Gensokyo after the tour, so here it is. It is hard to describe in writing on how I feel for our upcoming date, but you will see for yourself when I arrive there in person. After this one date and getting to know your world better, I have no problem to guiding you through my world. Until then, I love you dearly Pietro. Yours truly, Patchouli Knowledge," she recited the entire passage that she had written and sent to Pietro, reciting such things did bring her ease of mind.
After that, she had gone out of her way to travel outside of the mansion to visit the Human Village in Gensokyo, she did need a change of clothes for this one date. It didn't take long for her to get that done, considering that she was wearing her new outfit right now.
What she was doing now was checking on a flower pot placed near one of the few windows in her library, where the sunlight shone on it. This soiled pot is where she planted the seed that Tails had given to her near the end of the tour, or Murder Game to be precise. Speaking of Murder Games, she did have the interest in finding out of the origins of this, so it wouldn't happen again, but she didn't want to be heavily involved to the point where her peaceful lifestyle and others close to her were to be compromised.
"Nice to see you ready for your first date, Patchouli," out of nowhere, the boundary youkai Yukari Yakumo had appeared in her library. Guess it was time to go.
"I suppose it is. I only find it strange that you, out of all people, would be willing to do this for me," Patchouli says with a general curiosity, finishing up watering the pot that contained the special seed.
"Ah, well... I'm just a sucker for love. It's hard to find that here in Gensokyo, you know?" Yukari smiles as holds up the hand holding her fan, and opening that fan.
By doing that, she opened up the very same boundary rift from before,"You should appear in front of his living area, wherever it would be. Just... be yourself, that's my advice for you." Certainly it was a surprise that the usually lazy and non-caring youkai would actually be interested to helping Patchouli with her romance.
"I see... Thank you, Yukari," Patchouli says with an acknowledging nod before going off into the rift, which Yukari closed off behind her. The boundary youkai gave a solemn looking towards the empty space as to where the closed gap was.
"Pretty cute that you would actually help out dear old Patchouli with the date and that kind of stuff. Its like you're her supportive mother," Remilia snickered in delight, appearing from a cluster of bats and sitting down at one of the chairs of the library with a tea set in her hands,"Besides, what brings you here besides helping out Patchouli? A powerful youkai such as yourself shouldn't be spending her time with those below her, like me."
An eyebrow rose at the vampire's statement, Yukari didn't expect her to humble herself so discreetly, taking a seat as well, and serving herself some of the black tea that Remilia had brought over.
"Yes, it is something that you might as well question me about, but truthfully, I only came around for Patchouli's date and a request for you," Yukari spoke as she sipped her tea, her eyes narrowing at the little vampire in front of her.
"A request? Why yes, speak of it now so I know what you wish for me to do," Remilia's eyes lit up at that word, more than eager enough to do this for the old youkai.
"... Have these handed out to as much of the residency of Gensokyo or even those that are outside of the Land of Illusion," Yukari gave a light smile as she held out a stack of what seemed to be numerous envelopes of a sort for the vampire to see.
"You don't need to know of what it is, but I suggest spreading these around as much as you can. My... accomplices would be fairly happy to see that done," Yukari kept that smile up as Remilia took those envelopes into her stead.
"A-Ah! Yes, I can swear on my "Scarlet Devil" title that these will be delivered to all of the people that I can find! That I truly swear!" Remilia exclaimed with great recognition before disappearing once more in a cluster of bats. Yukari only gave a tired sigh as she sat up.
"Hm, Miss Scarlet would have to learn to clean up after herself or have her maids do so. Its quite embarrassing to have guests over and not clean up the tea set yourself," Yukari groaned as she began to walk away from the tea set. Yet, before she could open up a new rift for herself to leave in, a familiar chime of magical energy came to her ears. Looking to her side, she saw...
... golden butterflies.
"I knew you were watching, and don't make so much fuss my close friend. It will happen," the boundary youkai spoke to these butterflies as if these were an alternate form to a single entity. Without another word, Yukari opened up another rift, and stepped through it, the rift closing behind her.
Those golden butterflies fluttered around in circles before leaving...
