“So just snoop around the ground like a mouse or whatever?”
She already did take a hamster wheel, so she didn’t really have the right to complain about that method.
Tumblr media
“You make it sound so easy. But then again, you have wings.”
The fairy could probably just fly close to the ground... but Shinmyoumaru? Nooo. All the scientists gave her was her mallet, which was too huge to even carry around at all times. Not to mention how its effects won’t even last too long!
This seemed like karma for all the times she came whining to someone to get everything about this cesspool explained to her on a silver platter. Looking back on her luck, it probably was. Fantastic.
“I guess you haven’t been around humans as long as i have if you believe that they don’t waste anything. You’d be surprised.” Her tone calm and just the tiniest bit spiteful. ”Just probe along the ground or alleyways near some of these stores. They’ll throw away anything if they think its worn out its use. I know from experience.“
Tumblr media
Thinking even further back, the words left a bitter taste upon her tongue.

“Might be a mix of all of those. Fairies go for anyone, but I think they usually go for people who look like they’re spacing out. Top class ruthless pranksters. I swear they’re out for blood, like, most of the time.”
Tumblr media
    “Oh, yeah, my brother Wirt probably gets tricked by fairies all the time, then. Just the other day he walked into a tree an Beatrice said it was ‘cuz he wasn’t payin’ any attention to where he was going. But I think he’s just clumsy.”

“If you say so.” This lady sure was suspicious. Try as she might, Shinmyoumaru really can’t recall meeting her anywhere.
Her dubiousness aside, it’s not like she was asking the inchling anything too difficult to answer.
Tumblr media
“Aside from getting chased by cats and almost being stepped on thrice a day? Just fine. Not like those things are gonna stop me.”
Oh, yes, she’s forgotten – there was the possibility that the inchling girl had never actually seen Yukari pop into the Hakurei shrine while she was there. Goodness, how these things slipped her mind sometimes…
<<I happen to know a great many names. Perhaps I just happened to use the correct one this time?>> What she never forgets, however, is the desire to tease others.
Tumblr media
<<You may call me Yukari. My questions still stand, if you are so inclined.>>

She had flown close to the ground to see if anyone had dropped anything of value. no trinkets or money in sight, but she did happen across something even more curious- an eensy-weensy girl with violet hair and a fancy robe.
Airy hovered down in order to get a better look at the miniature stranger. Feet planted on the ground, she saw that the girl was roughly around her size…. give or take a couple of inches. It was like a grasshopper sitting next to an ant.
“This old thing?“ she said, slipping out the needle from the sash on her side. It hadn’t actually been used yet, but she still carried it around as if it were a real sword. “No human gave it to me. I just found it and took it for myself! Easy as that.“
Tumblr media
"Huh.”
Maybe she should go looking for needles, then. It was a pain getting chased around all the time, with almost no way to defend herself. She still has the mallet, sure, but it’s not like it could help her in the long run.
Tumblr media
“But, wait. Where did you find it? I don’t think humans just leave those kinda things lying around.”

Arcueid wasn’t exactly the kind of person to pay much attention to her surroundings, both in battle and out of it. Which, of course, made it not at all surprising that she’d nearly stepped on a hamster ball that was apparently rolling down the street. While such a thing was odd to her in of itself, Arcueid peered down at the offending ball to find a small girl yelling at her. It was kind of cute, really. 
Tumblr media
「Oh my god, you are so adorable!」Arcueid’s joyous exclamation rang through as she picked up the ball with the girl inside it - gently, of course. Wouldn’t want to hurt her, after all.「But why are you so small? Isn’t that dangerous in a place like this?」
The natural course of action was to take offense.
“Well, excuse you! It’s not like I can help my size!” She puffed her cheeks out angrily, unintentionally making herself look even more like a hamster in the progress.
Tumblr media
Oh, crap. Wait a second. Being picked up by someone who thought she was cute and tiny made her remember a certain incident back home.
“You aren’t going to kidnap and experiment on me or whatever, aren’t you!?”

“Geez, calm down! I just apologized to you!”
Tumblr media
He sighed and closed his eyes, rubbing his temples with his fingers. It was amazing how loud someone so small could be. It was giving him a headache. He knew it wouldn’t be this easy.
“Easy with the insults, kid. If you were dealing with someone else, they might have tried to hurt you.”
Well, he did·apologize. So, being the nice inchling she was, she let him off the hook. Kinda. Not really.
...Scratch that, not at all. Being a few inches away from being stepped on did things to your capacity to forgive people.
Tumblr media
“I don’t care! I can handle myself fine, thank you very much!”
Winning non-lethal battles in rows, no matter how long ago that may have been, does nothing but inflate the ego for tiny inchlings.

“Mm, its either this or nothing at all, I can’t eat anything else”
In one bite the last of the popsicle was eaten, Yua tossed the stick aside and looked around for just whoever was talking to him. The voice just seemed to come from nowhere, where was it? It sounded so tiny and…
Oh
He knelt down to look at the small inchling next to him
“Whoooooa! You’re small! You’re even smaller than I am!”
“Eh. Sucks to be you.”
Just imagining having to be stuck with one type of food all your life was just sad. As much as she likes rice crackers, she definitely won’t want to live on that every single day.
As the blue humanoid thing knelt down to her, she backed away. Sure, he’s done nothing so far, but still! Learning how to be cautious of every weird-looking thing--even mundane-looking things, really--was something she learned from home.
He’s done nothing but comment on her size, anyway.
Tumblr media
“Obviously. What’re you gonna say next, ‘I’m blue’?”

「My name is really short, and so are my friends’… but they have nice names! Yours is nice too, -だ-ドン!」
Tumblr media
「Oh, that makes sense! Then… I guess I am one, -だ-ドン!」Don-chan was always rather oblivious, going along with others’ words… but at least they weren’t lies or anything. The inchling was probably a baby child like him too. 「Uh… youkai, I know that word! But I’m not sure if she’s a youkai or anything… I dunno. But she is powerful, -だ-ドン!」
Tumblr media
「Oh! It can? What does it do, -だ-ドン?!」
“Of course. It’s my name.” Proud inchling is proud.
Tumblr media
“Basically, any supernatural being could count as a youkai!” Basically, anyway. There were still spirits and other stuff, but those still technically count as youkai. Somewhat.
“My mallet can grant wishes! Or, it could. Back then. Not now." It was only good for making her grow taller for a very limited time now. In other words, almost utterly useless. “If it was at full power, its leftover energy can make inanimate tools into youkai. It caused a whole load of trouble for me, so I won’t be using it for any wishes that would have that kind of side effect any time soon.”

aterriblesouvenir:
— [ ♥ ] — The mind reader’s first instinct is to tend to the animal population of the city. Especially in consideration of the violence expressed by her fellow humanoids, Satori’s response is towards those least likely to shun her.
Usually, Satori bothers to look down, or at least take notice of her feet. This time, things are different as she’s, well, in a hurry, really. Being surrounded by other hurried ( and less noble ) creatures only hastens her actions. It doesn’t help that her body is frail enough to be easily pushed around.
❝Wah?❞ Satori repeats the words spoken by the inchling, tone laced with disbelief. Strange, she expected there to be…someone taller to have a voice like that. Surely. Or was it a mind she just read?
❝Um, hello? I’m sorry, I didn’t… See you?❞ Though jostled by the crowd around her, Satori crouches down to peer curiously at whatever she kicked over. Carefully, she extends her forefinger and thumb to pluck the tiny human? off the sidewalk and out of harm’s way. ❝Don’t you think you should rethink this? There’s way too many people around.❞
Picked up off, she glumly glared back at the girl who picked her up. Well, at least she apologized, but still...
....Wait. She looked familiar. But at the same time, not really. Huh. The inchling frowned in thought, trying to remember.
It keeps escaping her, though. Oh well. Probably not that too important. But she swore that eye thing floating around the girl was the thing that made her think of that.
Tumblr media
“Urgh. I guess it was a bad idea.” It was the perfect opportunity for her to finally nab those weird transparent ball thingies she could fit in, though... Too bad crowds were a thing.

Caesar jogged around the small park located near his apartment complex. It was a relatively quiet morning, most citizens of the Hive now waking up and getting ready for their days. He hummed a soft tune as he ran. He even closed his eyes, trusting himself enough to know the path from memory. 
Tumblr media
He didn’t hear anyone around him, thus he didn’t open his eyes. He suddenly stumbled, feeling a solid thing collide against his shin. He gasped and stumbled, his eyes opening as he went to regain his balance. He turned his head, expecting to see a trash can, but was surprised. 
“Ah– Sorry! I didn’t mean to run into you like that!”
It seems that there’s always some trend of misfortune when it comes to her in this city. First, it was getting picked up by strangers. Second, being chased by stray animals. Now, people keep almost accidentally tripping over her.
For the--what? Third time this week? Someone, yet again, almost kicked her into the blue sky high above. Thank gods she wasn’t sent flying, but it was still annoying.
Tumblr media
“Do people in this city have no eyes or what!?” Apologies were futile now, no matter how large the person she’s yelling at may be. “You might be big, but it looks like your brain isn’t!”

The first actual living thing around her size she sees has the same weapon of choice as she did back home, and frankly, she was quite miffed.
Not to mention that the other one has wings, too, and is flying around with ease. What’s this, discrimination?
Tumblr media
“How come they gave you both flight and a weapon? Actually, scratch that. Where can I even get a needle?”

Of all places, those shady alleyways wasn’t a place she expected to strike gold. Not that she’s complaining.
It made things way easier for her, pride be damned. Shinmyoumaru rolled out the alleyway on the hamster ball she found. Rolling like this was way easier than having to sneak around everywhere, not to mention that it was safer. Somewhat.
Not safe from people who weren’t looking at the floor at all times, though.
Tumblr media
“Whoa! Hey, watch where you’re going!”

While she was used to seeing weird things in Gensokyo, Shinmyoumaru hasn’t seen a thing like this before. Not that something like that is going to stop her.
“What is that?”
Pointedly staring at the melting popsicle he’s eating, the inchling looked mildly disturbed. It was shaped like... a head? Either way, the way it was melting made it look like it was screaming.
Tumblr media
“That’s so disturbing. Just how can you eat that?”

“Of course!” She huffed proudly. “I managed to get all seven myself. But with your help, I bet we’d kick everyone’s butts! Too bad the whole business was just a large scam.” The inchling made a face. “The person behind it was no wish-granter, just a huge degenerate!”
Tumblr media
“Oh! Thanks!” Samejima already helped her get this far anyway, so she shook her head. “I should be able to handle it now! I have… um, dunno. Five minutes or something with my mallet? That might be enough to get me there! Probably.”
“What a lousy person!” Samejima clenched his fist in fury. “Scamming people with their innermost desires is a terribly unmanly action! I’m glad you made out okay from that, Shin.”
If Samejima ever discovers who forced Shin to do such a thing, they’ll win a nice punch sandwich.
Tumblr media
“Looks like so. This building is kinda high, but I’m sure that, if you go fast enough, you’ll be home quickly enough. Well, Shin, I’d love to chat more with you, but my friend senses tell me I gotta go to help them. If you need my help again, just call me!” Just like that, Samejima disappeared right before the inchling’s eyes.

“I dunno what an Occult Ball is, but I’m sure that you’ll manage to get them!” Samejima pumped one of his fists. “If you need any help, you can always count with me, right, Shin?”
At last, the duo arrived in front of Sector 5′s apartment building. It had been a fast, calm trip with no more interesting occurences, so I decided to skip to this point not to bore the readers.
Tumblr media
“Well, Shin, looks like we got here. You wanna me to take you all the way to your apartment, or you can handle things from here?”
“Of course!” She huffed proudly. “I managed to get all seven myself. But with your help, I bet we’d kick everyone’s butts! Too bad the whole business was just a large scam.” The inchling made a face. “The person behind it was no wish-granter, just a huge degenerate!”
