Cirno

Cirno's Fantasy Rebirth Story
Cirno
Welcome to my home! You can stay as long as you like!
Yukari
Yay! A big snow house!
Wow, what a cool... snow house?
(...Isn't it an igloo?)
Cirno
I was planning to go to Keine's place, a shrine party, or play with Dai and my friends...
Cirno
But the youkai...
Yukari
You mean the youkai lady?
Cirno
Yes! The youkai lady!
Cirno
...Said she wanted to talk with me, so I made time for a talk! Just for the third STRONGEST lady!
Yukari
Heehee, thank you.
Yukari
Honestly, you are very good at battles of bullets. I could tell just from playing with you for a little bit.
Yukari
I can see why Okina Matara has an interest in you.
Cirno
Good with... bullets?
Cirno
...?
Cirno
Well, of course! I'm the STRONGEST after all.
Cirno
And who's Okina?
Cirno
Is she the one standing? Or the one sitting down?
(She's both!)
Cirno
Urgh, what were we talking about?
Cirno
...Right! We promised to play bullets, and if I won, I'd listen to your talk!
Cirno
And if I lost, you... I mean, the lady and PLAYER, would leave!
Cirno
I won, so let me hear what you have to say!
Yukari
OK. Let's do so immediately.
Yukari
(Heehee! That was too easy!)
(So that's why Miss Yukari made such conditions.)
(It's so complicated.)
Cirno
So, what do you wanna talk to me about?
Yukari
That is of course about...
Yukari
...the absolute strongest!
Cirno
What?!
Cirno
Did you say the ABSOLUTE STRONGEST?!
Yukari
You are interested, right?
Cirno
Interested...? Of course I am! The ABSOLUTE STRONGEST is...
Cirno
...ME!
(She didn't understand.)
Yukari
(I guess I need to guide her more carefully...)
Yukari
...Now, considering how strong you are, I am sure you understand what this means.
Yukari
There are many powerful beings lurking in Gensokyo that you still do not know about.
Cirno
I see.
Cirno
But I'm not sure what you mean by lurking.
Cirno
Dai, Sunny, Larva, Piece, and the others aren't hiding at all?
Cirno
Ah, but I guess Mystia and Wriggle kinda hide! And Rumia is always hiding in darkness!
Cirno
Hmm, you're right! That must be why you're called a sage or whatever.
(Cirno is the strongest, after all.)
Yukari
(All she sees is her own world. This means that no one can make fun of her... What a profound lesson.)
Yukari
(...Though she's doing it unintentionally.)
Yukari
Hmm, yes... Have you ever fought against Byakuren Hijiri?
Yukari
That monk is pretty tough.
Cirno
Hiji... ki? Who's that?
Yukari
She's a monk at a temple.
Cirno
A monk?
Cirno
Ahh! A monk! Urgh, the things that shine and make noise right?
(She's not entirely wrong...)
(Isn't that an unidentified flying object?)
Yukari
You know, the tall, kind-looking lady in dark clothes that lives near the Human Village?
Cirno
Near the village... dark clothing... tall... kind-looking...
Cirno
...Lady?
Cirno
Ah, I know!
Cirno
I challenged her before!
Yukari
What?!
Cirno
When I challenged her, she patted my head and gave me candy.
Cirno
It's basically a win for me!
Yukari
Wow...
Yukari
How about Yuuka Kazami? Have you challenged her?
Cirno
Gazami...? I don't know why but that sounds like a dangerous name!
(She's not entirely wrong again!)
Yukari
She is a flower lady. If I'm not mistaken, you and Yuuka met at that sunflower field...
Cirno
Flower... Sunflower... Lady...?
Cirno
I-I'm going to be made into a beehive!
Cirno
I have to go! I need to run!
Yukari
(She is acting quite intense for this one.)
(The ice fairy is frozen in fear!)
Yukari
(Speaking of possibility, she may be top class in terms of uncertainty.)
Yukari
(But her answers to my questions were predictable. I wonder if the potential I saw in this girl was just an impression.)
Yukari
(I have to find out as much as I can right now.)
Yukari
I'm aware of your connection with others now. I can see that you are the closest to becoming the absolute strongest.
Yukari
I have one final question for you.
Cirno
All right! I'm up for anything!
Yukari
What if...
Yukari
...An enormous youkai that can eat all of Gensokyo in one big bite appears.
Yukari
And the monk and the flower girl I mentioned cannot do anything but cry for help.
Yukari
What would you do if you were in such a situation?
Cirno
I'll go.
Cirno
I'll go alone and defeat that monster.
Cirno
I'm the strongest after all...
Yukari
(That's too bad. I guess I was wrong about her.)
Yukari
(Indeed, it is no mean feat of bravery. There is no doubt there.)
Yukari
(But to deal with a true crisis, you need more than just bravery.)
Yukari
(A mere fairy without power will not be able to change anything―)
Cirno
...That was what I would've said before.
Cirno
But now I know how STRONG we are when all our powers are combined!
Cirno
Though I'm not sure how we were able to do that before!
Cirno
But I'm sure we can do it again!
Cirno
So, I'll slap your crying ladies back into the fight, and this time, I'll join forces with all kinds of people, not just fairies!
Cirno
That's my idea of the STRONGEST now!
(I'm sure she's absolutely right, this time!)
Yukari
I will remember that answer.
Cirno
Yep! You better remember it!
Yukari
Well then, let's give this brave fairy a costume worthy of a hero. PLAYER, would you do the honors?
OK! Here you go!
Cirno
Oooh! Wow!
Cirno
This is...!
Cirno
This is REALLY cool! Thank you, PLAYER, and you, purple lady!
Cirno
I'll go inside and change right now!
Cirno
You can come in too!
Ah, OK!
Yukari
Oh, I will take you up on your offer then...
Yukari
...Hm?
Yukari
...
Miss Yukari?
Yukari
Eh? Umm... Urgh.
Yukari
I'll be waiting outside!
Costume Presentation
Cirno
Playing with Dai and Luna is fun, but being with you is super fun too! You really get me! I'll freeze that big incident and anything else you need me to, so promise me that you'll keep playing with me!
