Rainbow blinked lightly. "I've never heard of these Blue Angels before. But if they're anything like the Wonderbolts, then they must be awe...!" They sudden scream from the bathroom caused Rainbow to spring up nearly through the ceiling. Now a normal person might have suffered some kind of head injury, maybe a mild concussion or even a little blood. For Rainbow Dash, however, she was more durable then that, but Rule of Comedy stated that her entire body had to vibrate on the way back down and her eyes had to spirals, along with the many different stars that were currently flying around her head. Shaking them off, she grimaced lightly at Michael. "A little warning next time please?"

Marisa had her hand clapped over her mouth, trying very hard not to laugh. ...She failed miserably. "BAHAHAHA! Mike, you look ridiculous! And sorry, Rainbow, but what you did was pretty funny. So, what happened?"
Michael, his face crimson in embarrassment, said, "Yukari wasn't finished with me with that pie. After I finished showering, she gapped right into the bathroom. Note: I had no clothes on! Hence the scream. And now, I'm sopping wet... haah." Michael turned back towards the bathroom and shouted, "Ya happy, Yukari?! You got me back!"

Rainbow noted that maybe, for Celestia, she would write a report on learning how much of a curse revenge could be, especially when performed on friends, and why one ought never to take it. The stuff Michael was going through at the moment had to be humiliating as sin. Not to mention she, herself, got laughed at by Marisa for hitting the ceiling. "Yeah... a real laugh," she said with that kind of monotone you would get when you obviously didn't feel the same way.
Patchouli's expression did not change herself. Well, if she laughed, the world would end. Not literally, of course, but it took the greatest deal of humor performed at the right timing coupled with the right effects and lighting in order to make her laugh. In other words, she had no sense of humor whatsoever.

Michael sighed. "I suppose I should consider myself lucky; what Yukari did to me is pretty tame; she could've just gapped me out here... or do that thing she did to Kaguya once..."
Marisa said, "You're talking about the beehive in her bed?"
Michael replied, "Yep. Mokou wouldn't stop laughing for a week. Had she not been immortal, I would've feared that she would've laughed herself to death." Michael then walked outside. "Rainbow, could you give me a hand here?"
Alice said, "The soup will stay warm; go ahead and do whatever you need to do." She took a sip of her tea and sat back down.

The minute Rainbow Dash heard beehive in bed, she looked visibly shaken and gulped lightly. This Yukari person sounds like an utter sadist. And supposedly with powers far greater then Celestia... I'm actually kinda scared now, she thought. However, her thoughts were broken when Michael asked her to come help him. "Oh... coming!" She wanted to get away from this kind of conversation as quickly as possible.

Michael said to Rainbow as they walked a little ways away from the house, "Don't worry too much about Yukari. She's no sadist; she's just mischievous... you try living for nearly 2000 years and see if you don't get bored easily. That Kaguya girl is an immortal, too; she was sore for a while but recovered." Michael paused for a minute, chuckled, and said, "Actually, I don't know how old Princess Celestia is, but I can think of a couple people in Gensokyo that would make her seem like an infant comparing ages. There's a girl named Tewi Inaba there that's about 6,500 years old. She's an even worse prankster than Yukari; she just doesn't have the ridiculous power."
Michael then stood in an open area. "Rainbow, think you could give me the RainBlow Dry, please? I don't want to get sick from walking around in wet clothes."

Rainbow listened to Michael's words, gaping as she did. The average Pegasus lifespan was a bit over a hundred years, so these Youkai must've all been immortals. The idea of immortality actually scared her a bit. Never being able to die... How did Princess Celestia deal with it? Or was she immortal to begin with? Well, if she was, her sister was too, so that's probably how she could cope. Meanwhile, Dash was certain that, while she had a long time to live, she didn't want to never see her family again. Whatever did happen to Dash's family anyway? Were they dead? Was it explained as them being off on vacation? Pinkie Pie and Applejack were the only one with shown parents. Fluttershy naturally lived on her own after falling from Cloudsdale, Rarity lived with her sister, and Twilight had parents, but she moved away from them. Rainbow Dash didn't seem to even have parents as a filly. How odd.
Shaking off these ridiculous thoughts, Rainbow Dash spun circles around Michael. The RainBlow Dry. While it definitely worked in drying him off, his hair also looked ridiculous afterwards. Chortling lightly, Rainbow replied with, "You might want to brush that."

Michael looked up and chuckled. "No worries, I got this." Pulling out a comb and a bottle of gel, he styled his hair back to its typically spiky state. "Now then, shall we get back? We didn't really get a chance to eat before that little detour came up."

Rainbow watched as he groomed it back to normal. She may not have been the most tidy of the ponies, but even she had a few standards. She had to look cool after all. However, she had to ask... "What's with the girl in purple? Patchouli... she's kinda like Twilight in a way, but at the same time, she also seems a lot more sinister."

Michael started walking back to the house. He said, "Honestly, Rainbow? Patchy is like what your friend Twilight would've been like in a few years had Princess Celestia not sent her to make friends. Patchy's not a bad person; she's just eccentric, like just about everyone else in Gensokyo. I think Marisa's been helping her become a bit more sociable, but these things take time. Patchy's almost 100 years old, so that antisocial habit of hers is gonna take some time to break. Well, c'mon; I don't know about you, but I'm getting kinda hungry and that soup tasted really good."

Rainbow noted Michael did make a good point. Heck, when Twilight first came to Ponyville, she wasn't interested in making friends at all. She just wanted to defeat Nightmare Moon on her own. But she and the others wouldn't let her do it and, in the end, it was because of them that Twilight was able to win in the first place. So friendship isn't always the winning factor in Gensokyo... and that means this Patchouli person is Twilight had she not met us. That's kind of depressing to think about. Shaking off those kinds of thoughts, Rainbow did not respond. That way, both she and Michael could get back inside and go to their food. Patchouli was still at the table, but she seemed to be reading some kind of book.

Michael walked back in and sat down. As he started eating he said to Patchouli, "So, Patchy... make any magical breakthroughs lately? I know that the Patchouli in my world was experimenting with trying to combine all seven of her elements into a Spellcard, but she hadn't been having much luck."

Patchouli looked up at Michael. "The powers of Sun and Moon, if one tries to combine them, are a chore, but one book says the results mirror that of the Hourai Elixer. And does the Patchouli in your universe at least possess the Philosopher's Stone spellcard?"

Michael responded, "Yes... and it is painful. Aya and I took these pictures (at this, Michael pulled out a couple of pictures) of 'Sun-Moon Sign: Royal Diamond Ring,' but it was still in its experimental stage..." Michael finished his soup and was about to get up to put it in the sink when a doll snatched his bowl up. "...Well. Thanks, Alice."

Patchouli didn't have much to say. But then she turned to Rainbow. "So what has Michael said about us exactly."
Rainbow blinked, being called out so suddenly. "Huh? Oh... well, he said you were great with magic and..." she pointed at Alice. "She likes working with dolls and..." She pointed at Marisa. "I'd like her, especially something he called... Master Spark. He said this after he got into a mock battle with... Aya?"
"Yes, Aya..."
