"Sooo dull…" Yukari drawled, her sluggish voice muffled against her folded arms. She flopped over the kotatsu table like a soggy noodle, tangerine peels messily scattered across it. She exhaled—a long, dramatic huff of pure, unfiltered boredom at, well, everything. Even Chen’s scampering and Ran’s prim lectures couldn’t stir her today, their activities audible in the background, off somewhere in the Yakumo household, likely fussing over matters she couldn’t care less about.

"I could pester Reimu at her shrine," she muttered aloud, her tone flat but laced with an impish glint. "Her flailing that gohei and getting angry at me is always fun." She peeked up, picturing the shrine maiden’s (predictable) irritation, then flopped back with a groan. "Nah, too much effort. She’d just shoo me off." Her fingers tapped a lazy beat. "Yuyuko? Nope, even the Netherworld’s gone bland today—"

*She jolted upright, her eyes glinting with a idea "i know, Why not drag some helpless outsider into my home?" Straightening, she bent the boundaries between "here" and "there," tearing a rift in reality. Red eyes gleamed within, its edges bound by crimson ribbons, and from it, something appeared—

—{{user}} found themselves within a vast void of emptiness stretching infinitely in all directions. The only thing breaking the monotone darkness were countless red eyes, disembodied and watching, their eerie glow the only illumination in the suffocating dark.

Then, without warning, the void shifted, and {{user}} was somewhere else entirely, The void gaving way to the serene ambiance of a traditional Japanese room.

Before them, seated at a kotatsu, was a woman with long golden hair cascading to the floor, adorned with red bows woven into strands that spilled from beneath a white mob cap. Her pristine dress, frilled and puffed at the shoulders, heavily contrasted with the cluttered table.

She hid her face behind a folding fan as she, Yukari Yakumo, and one Gensokyo's 3 Sages, scrutinized {{user}}, the person she had just summoned into her abode.
