Reimu, never really showing up to the Stadium before due to not having a reason prior shows a new face, walking into the Stadium and sitting down with her divine instruments to wait. An audience has shown up being told of a style of battle known as Danmaku Battles will take place here today. Though apparently it's like the old one but a lot more flashy. The miko ignored their whispers as they waited to see who the fierce mercenary maiden was bringing to challenge. All that passed in Reimu's mind was what she was preparing herself for the fight. She had to truly test her strength and resolve if she wanted any hope of saving her friend. She needed strength and she may not be able to do this alone. However, she had a way of doing things and first wanted to challenge the head of Love and Compassion herself, Princess Peach. Only then can she truly know these feelings instead of fighting for selfish reasons outside correcting the criminals. This is what she believed anyway. She would put her all into testing her might and if Peach is all that her community represents, then she may seek their help.

Dear Princess Peach,
I am Reimu Hakurei, we have not really spoken but I know you know a friend of mine. Marisa. She has fallen down with grief recently and I have been trying my best to care for her but I am at a loss... I am not used to caring for the cause of my problems so I am conflicted. I just want to help my friend but at the same time this mess is her fault. It's driving me a bit mad. Santa Claus, as silly as that may sound, pointed me in the direction of your Society hen I asked. Of course, I was skeptical, but I wish to see what love and compassion can truly do in battle. Not only that, but I want to see how much I compare to my resolve and feel this is the best way. This may sound hard headed but I want to try and get over these feelings for her. So, please if you have the time, meet me in the Stadium so that we may go all out. I know it may be troublesome to deal with something so childish but I would appreciate your time.
Yours truly. Reimu Hakurei

She has memorized that letter she has sent to the Princess. Even now she had doubts but there was only one way to settle disputes in Gensokyo. That was to have a battle to determine who was in the right in a fair and even match. Everyone there honored this system but this inner dispute was different. Still, she was going to stick to her code and she needed help to do so. She just hoped the Princess would heed her call.

[Mari]

A cry for help, a broken heart and a sister in need.

Luckily for Reimu, Peach had nothing against childishness. Not in this sense of the word, anyway. Rather, the princess could not refuse such a request even if she'd wanted to! A broken heart was a volatile thing, prone to changing or worsening at a moment's notice. They deserved to be held gently and caressed by hands like casts, so that they might heal back into their original shape!

Peach dropped down from the sky, just kinda leisurely floating down with the aid of her parasol like Mary Poppins. She landed with a click of her heels against the stadium floor, beautifully clad in her royal regalia. A bright smile graced her delicately painted pink lips as she regarded Reimu, settling into a more relaxed demeanor at the other end of the arena. "I do hope that I found you well, Miss Hakurei. Your letter left me quite concerned..!" Peach greeted. "...I am very sorry to hear of your and Marisa's predicament. I could feel the heart you put into your letter describing it. I want you to know that my heart is open to you and that I've put aside my evening to seeing this through. Fighting isn't normally how I prefer to show my love, but if you believe it would help... I'm more than willing to accommodate and show you love's firm embrace~" Peach continued on to explain, shifting to raise a fist to the air in a uniquely feminine combative stance. She was well aware that they were scheduled for a fight, and fully expected Reimu to take her up on the offer. The fact that she'd put aside her evening seemed to imply that she'd taken aftercare into consideration, and intended to take care of Reimu if she lost. Obviously if Peach herself lost she would be spending her afternoon in the hospital, assuming Reimu didn't return the favor of course.

Reimu opened her eye at the sound of Peach's voice. It looked like the Princess had decided to show up afterall. Would of been bad for the audience especially if she hadn't. Still, she did not quite get up from her sitting position yet, listening to Peach first. "I am just glad you showed. Thank you for understanding. I have put my evening aside as well. After all, someone has to keep an eye on the loser, right?" Reimu replied, though not really meaning to imply she already won but more she knew Peach's line of thinking. It was standard practice for her as well to keep an eye on those that she beats in battle.... Granted for very different reasons, but she is the one more or less forcing Peach into this.

"Alright, since we are both here, I can set it up. Gap!" Reimu said as the area around them was covered in a red energy quickly, with holes opening up to let the audience see into the pocket dimension the shrine maiden took them to. "I can get a little into fighting so I made this technique for when I wanted to prevent random civilians from the crossfire. Now, shall we begin? I will be fighting Danmaku style. I will throw a lot of my sacred items at once but it will be in a pattern. A true Danmaku battle is about art and style over raw power. There will be no real difference however for this world. Just give me all you have," the girl explained as she took out several ofuda from her sleeves. "These are my weapon of choice. They are meant to defeat Youkai, but they work on humans fairly well,"  The Shrine Maiden stated as she started throwing them out in a pattern, leaving gaps in the onslaught to squeeze through.

"Now for my next technique I will channel my divine powers from the god of my shrine.  Divine Spirit {Fantasy Seal!}" The girl called out, pulling a card out of her sleeve as well, it having pictures of multicolored balls on it. Just like the card foretold several rainbow colored orbs flew out from the girl and towards Peach, slightly homing into her, but this attack consumed quite a bit of her focus.

"Dreamland {Fantasy Border}!" the girl finished as she summoned another card that created rotating squares around her that seemed to shield her from attacks fairly well. She seemed to be holding nothing back already with preparing her defense. "Alright, it's your turn, Princess. I am prepared for whatever you throw at me," the Hakurei Shrine Maiden called the end of her assault as she was floating just above ground level, though not enough to make an unfair advantage.

p_1d20+2(Peach's Dodge)

Princess Peach just kinda staggered through the attacks, not able to do much in the way of moving out of their paths. Sometimes it was hard to believe she could fight at all in those ruby red high heels. She had to snatch her crown out of the air as it was momentarily torn from her head and launched, barely catching it on the tips of her freshly painted pink nails before pressing it straight back down onto her head once she cleared the danger zone. She was a little rougher for the wear now, her hair in particular having become slightly mess in the crossfire. However, her dress miraculously kept its form, not yielding even under immense firepower! It was perhaps hard not to see the motif at play. Peach was a striking role model for the magical girls, and a walking testament to the idea that being a pretty princess didn't mean you were weak. She and her dress were made of tougher stuff!

"...That was... quite the opening move, Miss Hakurei. I just hope that you won't be left with regrets or a closed heart once we're finished~!" Peach replied, flashing a playful wink at Reimu as she lifted one arm up in demonstration, a pretty pink fireball forming in the palm of her hand. "Hyah~!" she chirped, tossing several pink fireballs at Reimu in quick succession! Feels just like home, huh Reimu?

All the while, Peach rushed Reimu trailing just behind the fireballs, her eyes glimmering with a certain interest. As she got close though, she abruptly turned around and thrust her hips at Reimu, attempting to knock the other over and sit on her!

p_1d20+5 (Peach's Hips of Vehemence; Does 13% Damage and inflicts mini)

If Reimu were hit, she would find her world being pressed underneath Peach's backside, almost as if it were growing larger just to spite her and envelope her! No wait, that's not right... She was getting smaller! Peach would remain seated on Reimu for a good long moment if she were able, letting the other get nice and familiar with her fluffy skirt as her weight pressed Reimu into her in a comical manner. She'd then get back up! If Reimu got hit, and was unable to dodge her next attack, she'd find herself stuck to Peach's posterior like a pretty red stick, only to be flung off with a swing of Peach's hips that launched her explosively in a burst of hearts! Else, Peach would once again lunge at her backside first, attempting to send her flying with her signature Peach Bomber!

The tiniest giggle escaped Peach and she turned away from Reimu to daintily pose for the crowd, beaming slightly at her own performance.

Reimu's attacks hit their mark well enough, natural since Peach did not grow up needing to evade every barrage thrown at you. Nor was she in charge of a world where you could just spray and pray with no real effort. She looked a bit ragged but she still kept a sense of style which was admirable. "Hm, I tend to just treat people equally usually anyway. Still, you are more durable than you look. Now, show me what your love magic is capable of from the Magical Girl Society," She replied as she flew ready just as Peach started throwing pink fireballs at her.... Huh, this felt kind of comfortable and familiar.

The Shrine Maiden was a bit off her game with dodging as she grazed a bit of the fireball, breaking one of her barriers and giving a bit of a burn though it was manageable. She picked up her game however and flew around the other two, dodging the second with ease and narrowly dodging the third. However, this was when Peach threw her off with a melee attack. The Shrine Maiden did not have any time to dodge so she reflexively put her hands forward and created a barrier for Peach to bounce off, her border making wearing down a bit but she managed to save that. However, the next attack was coming from an0ther booty attack!.... Huh, Marisa did that same thing before...

p_1d20+4

Distracted by the thought of Marisa's posterior, Reimu got slammed hard by an explosive heart as her last barrier shattered and she was sent flying though she managed to catch and correct her flight. The crowd was loving the fact Reimu was thrown so off by Peach's innocent tactics. "Not bad. Even with my border that hurt quite a bit. When I saw you arrive you did not look like much but you really are strong. Alright, guess that means it's time I stop playing around myself. Time to unleash another of my Divine Instruments!" Reimu said before she disappeared from sight for a moment before appearing in front of Peach with a blue Yin and Yang Orb in her palm before she thrusted it towards the Princess to send her colliding back with it until it exploded.


p_1d20+1(Reimu's Yin-Yang Orb, deals 22% damage)

However, she did not stop there as she jumped back and channeled her energy again to assault Peach with 7 more Multicolored Orbs, this time they seemed even more intent on backing Peach into a corner as they homed in on her to detonate. She flew back across the ground, tossing in a bunch more Ofuda as well, really making this a really beautiful bullet hell.

"Let's see how well your love keeps up with this Danmaku!" Reimu called out. Still, she may of but a bit too much into that and the crowd did not admire her exposed underarms much.

This time, Peach deftly swung aside the yin-yang orb, dodging it in the most graceful looking way possible as she all but danced out of the way, beaming slightly at Reimu. However, her rhythmic, stylishly feminine movements put her right in the path of a storm of energy projectiles! "...Oh." Peach murmured, holding out Perry and hiding behind his canopy!

((Peach Bubble Shields the fantasy seal and the Ofuda, with 12% of spillover))

Energy slammed into perry, ricochetting off his canopy all over the place! For a moment it looked like Peach wouldn't budge, but a last bolt struck through Perry, damaging his canopy and plowing through Peach's shoulder! A little yelp escaped her as she was momentarily thrown off balance. "Ow ow... ow... ow!" Perry yelped, wiggling his canopy as he attempted to fix the collapsed area. Taking a deep breath, Peach lowered Perry and gently yet firmly snapped his undercarriage back into place, like setting a broken bone. "Hold still... This will sting a little, okay? That's quite enough roughhousing for one day. I'll handle the rest." Peach quietly cooed. Her poor parasol was too out of it to keep taking attacks on her behalf.  Giving him a little pat, Peach thrust out her arms to her sides and spread her legs slightly in a more combative pose. "Do let me know if it begins to hurt too much, Miss Hakurei~! I will be giving you a taste of just how strong love can be~!" Peach chirped, only to promptly shift into a more exotic pose. She then proceeded to spin about, her dress shining a bright pinkish white as she began to demonstrate her signature transformation!

It's that time again~!

Flattering magical girl transformation coming to an end, Peach's dress poofed out with a myriad of new frills and floof, in particular causing her skirt to balloon out larger! Striking a pose as the transformation finished, Peach soon lowered her gaze back down onto Reimu, her eyes full of tiny sparkles and a much larger heart shape in her pupils. Gosh, her eyes were pretty. Hashtag end unrealistic eye beauty standards. "I do feel powerful, and I hope that by the end of this match I'll look as powerful as I do wonderful~" Peach remarked in a playful tone.

((Frills of Justice Activated!))

Peach then performed a familiar trick by tossing a bunch of fireballs at Reimu!

This time though, Peach rushed in amongst her fireballs, lifting the front of her dress as she charged forth to capitalize on her opening. Pulling back and reaching into the folds of her dress, Peach dove in low toward Reimu and smiled up at her, pulling a frying pan from the folds of her dress! Woah! Charging the humble steel appliance with an amount of energy that caused it to glitter and sparkle in the light of the false sky. She then twisted her body rather hard, swinging the pan up into Reimu's head with stratosphere piercing power!

p_1d20+7 (Peach's Critical Hand of Temperance; Does 59% Damage)

The pan strike would be accompanied by an explosion of sparkles that littered the stadium , raining down upon the crowd harmlessly as Peach pulled back to brandish her pan in the hand opposite the one holding Perry over her shoulder.

Reimu observed as Peach managed to survive her blows by using that talking umbrella of hers to shield them... That was a surprisingly strong umbrella... "Alright, come at me with everything you have!" Reimu declared as she prepared for the worst... As Peach began a... rather magical transformation. Huh, that was pretty cool actually... Kind of makes her want to take that technique for her own?... That was a scarily Marisa like thought. Why can't she stop thinking about her even in the heat of battle? The Shrine Maiden's thoughts threw off her game as a fireball hit her head on. She managed to catch herself well enough to dodge the other two. However, another Melee Attack threw her off as her eyes widened when she felt heavy pain surge through her body as she took major damage.

The blow, despite the appearance of the Princess, was excrutiating and sent Reimu flying off at rocket speeds into the endless void she made, disappearing in a twinkle... May of overdone it a bit there, Peach. Fortunately, she accounted for this to happen and came rocketing from the opposite direction into the ground, leaving a large dent in the floor. "Ow... That REALLY hurt... Alright, since you are using your full power now, guess I need to pull out my trump card. Cirno, give me your power so that together we can fight for our friends!" the Shrine Maiden declared after pulling herself up and dusting herself off. She invoked the power that Shadow Cirno gave her, her body gradually freezing over as she became an ice sculpture. The ice Maiden formed cracks before bursting open in a bright blue light to show off a change in outfit of her own, though still not as frilly as Peach's.

In fact, if Peach recogonized the name and appearance of the Ice Fairy Viridi and Arle adopted, she would look pretty familiar. Her outfit was the same colors as Cirno, white and blue, her ribbon changing to blue as well, and she adopting icy wings like the fairy. "Alright, now to use my friendship to see how far I have come!" the Hakurei girl declared as she created ice blocks and fired them at the Princess.

... That first spell did not go very well at all. She highly doubted it would land. "Let's... um... See if a Spell Card does any better. Maiden of Frost {Ice Calibur}!" the Blue and White Girl declared as she froze the air above her into the shape of a large sword of pure ice before pointing at Peach to send the Icy Blade at the Frilly Magical Princess to slam into her.

"That's a bit better... Maybe it's just because her actual power is kind of weak..." the girl said to herself, the audience having a boo that distracted them as Cirno was apparently watching her mess up that first spell.

Peach could not help but stifle a giggle at Reimu's little 'trip'. Aw man. Usually people's faces didn't still look so pretty after she bashed them in with a frying pan~! That was the sort of graceful resilience Peach could appreciate. "Oh my~!" Peach remarked in pleasant surprise as Reimu confronted her, As she turned to flee the incoming cryomancy attack though, she promptly lost the careful balancing it took to run in hells and faceplanted onto the ground with a little yelp, her crown bouncing off of her head. ...And somehow, her show of incompetence allowed the ice blocks to sail clear over her! She squirmed back onto her feet, plopping her crown back onto her head and pulling her skirt up slightly so that she wouldn't trip this time before making a run for it to dodge Reimu's giant icy sword attack!

...For a moment, Peach would seem to vanish as the ice blade blocked out Reimu's view of her. It began to crash into the ground with a large thud, seeming to entirely mask the sound of Peach's footsteps! ...Or perhaps it had hit her. A moment later though, and Peach emerged from the shadow of the blade, lunging into the air with her parasol held high! Perry fluttered his canopy, keeping Peach from falling back down. "That's quite the transformation, Miss Hakurei~ --Ah...cha~!" Peach greeted, only for the dirt cast up by the impact of the ice blade to catch her nose. She wobbled around in the air, turning her back on Reimu as she let loose a mousy, feminine sneeze! ...This sneeze, of course, still managed to propel her backward. In but a moment, Reimu would find her visage filling up with the skirt of Peach's dress! She was sailing toward Reimu booty first with a surge of speed!

p_1d20+5 (Peach's Critical Peach Bomber; Does 56% Damage)

A massive explosion of hearts would ensue if Peach's backside met Reimu's head, launching the other down into the ground, where the hearts fluttered down around her like a cutesy pink snow. However, before Reimu would have any chance to get back into the air, or perhaps in spite of Peach's attack, Peach would go back on the offensive! She dropped with a little thud nearby, promptly lashing out with Perry as if to smack Reimu from overhead! However, this was but a feint attack, a trick to get Reimu to dodge right into her waiting arms. Or rather... her waiting stomach. "Though I could not help but think you might look even better in pink~!" Peach cheekily remarked with a wink as she made a grab for the other and promptly attempted to bring Perry down over her head for some vengeance!

p_1d20+11 (Peach's Critical Devour; Targets INT!)

And if she were successful...

SPOILER: Click to show

Reimu would find herself whisked away to a place that not even her gaps would be able to get her out of. One moment everything went dark, and the next everything became quite ... cramped. It felt as is she were being hugged tightly against Peach's midriff, her head laying just below the other's bosom and her feet against the other's hips. She felt a bit smaller than she might expect, but not nearly enough to let her move around freely. She was forced to curl up by the warm, soft embrace of the walls around her, which gently yet firmly shifted and squeezed until they molded her into the form they desired for easier carrying, something resembling a fetal position! Peach's heart could be heard--and felt--softly beating overhead in her ear. Her world would rock back and forth a bit as Peach leisurely shook her hips to help her newfound weight settle downward.

After a good long moment of 'getting comfy', something bizarre began to happen. Little pink magical hearts joined Reimu in Peach's stomach, providing a slight bit of light that revealed a glittery pink 'goop' clinging to Reimu. It stung a little bit when it touched her skin and would soon begin eating at her outfit, but quickly had a numbing effect on the affected areas. Though it was doubtlessly obvious what was actually happening to her, she was at least spared the pain of digestion. It was clear that Peach was influencing this, but if she didn't get out soon, she would no doubt find herself losing the strength to continue fighting, drifting off where she laid.

Else...

Peach simply evokes a magical pink heart in her hands, tossing it at Reimu! It would explode on contact.

"Love is quite the versatile force, Miss Hakurei~! Was that a form of love of your own that you channeled just now..?

She got the impression that Reimu wouldn't be able to handle much more.

The Shrine Maiden looked out past where she threw the ice sword... Welp, the Princess was gone now... But wait, there was no way a blow like that would have that much power. And that was when the red and white miko heard Peach's voice, this gave her a split second chance to think fast as she focused her frozen magic into an ice wall, meant to shield against the rump to prevent harm. However, spite the sneeze momentum slowed, Peach managed to break through the ice wall and slam into Reimu, sending her reeling back, but not nearly as bad as if she took that head on. Then Peach turned out to still be on the offensive as she came at her with that parasol. "You really think you can hit me with such a simple attack?" Reimu called out as she dodged Perry... right into Peach's arms without thinking... Did Cirno's Power make her dumber?

The blue and white Shrine Maiden was helpless as she struggled against Peach, unable to break free, her eyes opening as she noticed the intent... Gee, did not feel right being on the other end of this. Maybe she should apologize to Gilgamesh... Nah, he is being rehabilitated for a really good reason. None the less, the miko slid down the much taller girl's stomach, ending up face first, he face being rocked by Peach's hips until she could struggle upright a bit. This technique was not new to Reimu but she still needed a cookpot to do it yet this princess could do it without assistance? Reimu tried opening a gap in Peach's stomach to warp out... Just to end up gapping back into her stomach face towards the hips again. Curse you magical interference!

She could feel magical hearts sting her and eat at her clothes... Really, this was the way she chose to try and take her down?!.... Peach was right, she couldn't take much more... But she was not about to give up yet! She kind of had an undying spirit like that... Besides, it was still a bit early to call off the match as a forfeit so she has to try one last push! "You'll find I don't give up that easy! First, let's try cooling things down! It's way too warm in here!" Reimu called as she began trying to use Ice Magic to cool Peach's Body considerably from the inside!

The last attempt to cool Peach down was noticeably weaker, barely damaging her even if she could not resist it. It would appear that despite Reimu's defiant nature she was beginning to tire herself out. She could not take much more and may revert if she was not careful. Also, in her position, she was not on any grounds to try and make an appeal. "I guess you could call it that. Cirno gave me her blessing so... that I may help her protect our friends..." Reimu's voice came from the... poor position. Alright, she may need to gap herself upright in a moment...

Much to Reimu's dismay, there seemed to be a stronger magic than her gapping ability holding her firmly where she was! The walls of Peach's stomach did not yield to her portals, holding her back from so much as walking into them! Yet, that was only the... third arguably scariest thing going on. Reimu could feel Peach shift her hips in response to her attacks, merely adjusting the way her weight rested on her body with each struggle to stop herself from losing her balance. Many of her attacks harmlessly impacted the inside of Peach's stomach, melting away immediately in the nearly stifling heat. Back on the battlefield, Peach pressed a fist to her hip and posed proudly where she stood, sighing in relief. She wasn't about to tell Reimu she enjoyed her efforts to free herself, even though that was the truth of the matter. It was such a strange feeling! Yet, not one she ultimately found unpleasant. Quite the opposite. It brought an amused smile to her face and left her feeling refreshed.

"Very well, Reimu." Peach replied, her voice taking on a bit of extra bass from inside of her that made it feel like Reimu's entire world was gently shaking around her when she spoke. She also spoke with slightly more force than before, asserting herself a bit. "But I think you'll find me quite 'hot'~" Peach went on to sass in a matter-of-fact tone, a flourishing little wiggle seeming to hint that she was quite proud of that pun.

But yeah, remember that bit about there being two things more terrible than her inability to gap her way out going on? Well... I only talked about one of them. The other--well. By now, Reimu's clothes had been destroyed beyond any hope of salvaging and her body... was set to follow. Though she was numb to the pain, she could observe in the soft light Peach's magic gave off that she was quite literally beginning to melt away in the sparkly mess that surrounded her! Even without the pain normally associated with such a fate, it was a truly terrifying sight. And boy, that was quite a bit of blood. It might become immediately obvious that Reimu wouldn't be able to keep fighting with such terrible injuries. Not well, at least. Worse yet, Peach was regaining her strength using Reimu as well--...fuel! Assimilating her, if you will. Peach is the borg now. It would be rather cruel to let her go now. The pain alone would probably be enough to trigger trophification if Peach stopped coddling her.

...Plus, she had no clothes now. You can't fight without clothes! Now that, unlike everything preceding it, would be too much.

"...Though if you cannot find your way to freedom and need further proof of your being beaten, I may be able to get you a certificate of defeat signed... It will only take me a brief walk down to the maternity ward~" Peach playfully added, poking fun at the imagery at play here. It seemed that this pretty princess had a strong and assertive side after all! She was matching Reimu's relentless determination and then some, in spite of her generally girly and demure attitude! ...Who would've thought she had it in her? Badumtish.

The Shrine Maiden noticed her spells did nothing to lower the heat. It was so hot in here that Cirno's Invoking did not help... Or rather it did help quite a bit. Even as Peach taunted her, the Shrine Maiden noticed it was only the enhanced durability and willing to take punishment that Cirno brought that was keeping her alive. If it was not for Cirno's power, she could already of been digested by Peach's.... unusual digestive system. Her precious clothes were gone now... Thankfully she had a bunch at home in the shrine but she can't exactly gap them right now. Her body itself was melting in the heat as she could barely stand it any longer. Peach mercilessly absorbed more of her body and energy as Reimu felt her strength decreasing to the point where survivability was absurd.

The girl had to listen as Peach gloated over her higher position and... basically threatening to finish her from the sounds of it... But the way she put it was a bit embarrassing. ".... Fine, you win. I won't last another moment, especially since I might break my Invoke and perish... Still, I can't exactly leave because of you, so could you make like a magical AC of love or something? I think we've both proven something anyway. I really want to rest now.... Assuming you had a plan to make it safe..." Reimu replied, clearly giving up now that Peach has throughly dominated her and her chances were quite frankly, shot.

"... Also, since I need a change of clothes on top of that, could we head to my shrine in Harvest Acres for a talk? Of course, you're walking," Reimu joked a bit, really hoping, and believing full heartedly Peach would accept her surrender. Apparently she was not too down about losing for some reason.

Goodness, it was a little hard to hear her food over the sound of her stomach vigorously working at it! Between Reimu being a little muffled and all the growling, it wasn't hard to imagine just tuning her out and letting her slip away between her fingers... Luckily for Reimu, she was in better hands than that. Peach politely listened to the other in spite of the circumstances, falling very quiet so that she wouldn't miss anything Reimu said. ...And what she heard brought a smile back to her delicately painted lips. Far be it from Peach to judge anyone for handling being eaten with grace. Her body was a royal temple, after all, and the dignity suited it well. Besides, she prefered the pleasantries.

And just like that, Peach's demeanor changed. Reimu could feel Peach's free hand caress her stomach, her long nails in particular poking her a bit. A gentle force was applies, and she could feel her body give way slightly under Peach's grasp. It was a rather surreal feeling that probably would've been a lot more painful in any other circumstance. "Oh my! You are quite a bit 'softer' than I had expected, Reimu..." Peach softly exclaimed, apparently alarmed by how close to fully digested Reimu was. Her tummy felt like it was full of jello, and that was not a good consistency for a person! No ma'am! A good hug would've been all it took to end Reimu, forget another round of working at her. As if a flip had been switched, the magically imbued fluids surrounding Reimu stopped attacking her body and began to heal it instead. Love magic flowed into Reimu's body. She could feel it moving through her veins, spreading from the tips of her toes all the way to her brain. No part of her body was left without its soothingly cool touch. She was full of Peach's love, and it was an immensely pleasant feeling, enough that she might find herself charmed purely by accident.

"I do apologize for your clothes. I will be happy to walk you to your appartment and pick up a spare pair for you. I'll hold onto your badges too. Until then, you are more than welcome to share mine with me until we part ways~" Peach cheerily offered with a little giggle that rocked Reimu's world slightly, tenderly giving Reimu's back a comforting little rub. She would not dare drift any lower with her affection, much as a pat on the head appealed to her. Reimu's head was current at belly button level, much too low for that. "I do believe I will have to keep you with me for a bit longer than I planned to, but I promise you will be safe and taken care of." Peach went on to explain giving Reimu a little pat of support before dropping her hand back to her side. Accepting their badges on Reimu's behalf, she began to depart at a very leisurely pace. The rhythmic sway of her hips with each step might just rock Reimu to sleep as Peach's heartbeat settled down to a calmer rhythm above her. "Would you like me to stop for anything else on the way back..? It may be a while." Peach offered, unsure whether Reimu wanted to sleep or just to relax and rest. Silence would be her cue to hush.

"Yeah, maybe go a bit more gentle next time instead of nearly digesting your sparring partner," Reimu replied, though she did not sound as bitter as her wording would lead one to believe. Fortunately Peach could in fact reverse the process and heal the Shrine Maiden. Phew, she felt less melty now. "I have someone trusted to look after Marisa fortunately. Even together I may need a bit more recovery. You really don't mess around for a princess..." she noted before using fairy magic to feed herself some ice cream to help her heal. "It's alright, my clothes get shredded on a regular basis. Part of the job. That's why I have a bunch of spares," she explained. "Nah, wake me up when we get back. That was the roughest fight I've had in ages..." Reimu replied before drifting off for now.
