Ringo

Ringo's Fantasy Rebirth Story
Ringo
What's going on? Why did you ask me to come out here, away from the village―
Ringo
―Yukari Yakumo, Sage of Gensokyo?
Yukari
...
Yukari
I wish to speak with you not as the dango seller who has cute bunny ears but as a moon rabbit and former Eagle Ravi.
Ringo
I figured as much. (Did she just call my ears cute...?)
Yukari
Then have you also figured out what I'm going to ask you?
Ringo
Hmm, well...
Ringo
...you are here with PLAYER.
Hello. *wave*
Ringo
Welcome! *wave*
Ringo
Wait, no, I'm not working right now! Anyway, I can only think of one reason why you'd be here with PLAYER.
Ringo
You want to ask about the unprecedented danger that may befall Gensokyo.
Ringo
I'm actually charging quite a high price for this information, but that's what you wanna know about, right?
Yukari
I see that you're just as well-informed even after leaving your recon unit.
Yukari
You should keep charging a high price so the news doesn't needlessly spread. OK, what information do you have about it?
Ringo
I can't tell you.
Yukari
Hmm.
Yukari
Hm?!
Ringo
What did you expect? Information is a valuable commodity.
Ringo
And the information about what information I have is also for sale. I can't just tell you for nothing.
Yukari
R-Right... That makes sense.
Yukari
But then I can't buy any information from you. Can't we come to an agreement?
Ringo
Oh, yeah, I guess that explains why hardly anyone buys my info.
Ringo
Hmmm.
Ringo
...All right!
Ringo
I'll let you sign up for the Dango Points service that's only available to regular customers.
Yukari
D-Dango Points?!
Ringo
Customers who sign up for this service will receive Dango Points based on the amount of dango they purchase.
Ringo
And when you save up enough points, you can exchange them for dango or information. Doesn't that sound like a great deal?
Ringo
Oh, just to be clear, you can only get points at Ringo's. Buying dango next door at Seiran's won't get you anything.
Yukari
Wow!
I didn't know you were a regular customer, Miss Yukari.
Yukari
Teehee, I only buy a few sticks every now and then, but it does feel nice to be called a regular.
Ringo
Ah... Well, I guess the real regular customer would be that fox lady. She buys dango almost every day.
Yukari
RAN?! I can't believe this!
Ringo
She truly is a great customer. Thanks to her, I managed to create my new fried tofu dango and bonito dango.
Yukari
What? They sound delicious...!
Ringo
If you sign up for the Dango Points service and also purchase thirty dango right now...
Ringo
...you'll immediately gain enough points to exchange for all the information I currently have!
Ringo
What do you say?
Yukari
...!
Yukari
You've got a deal! Give me thirty dango!
Ringo
What type?
Yukari
Fifteen fried tofu dango and fifteen bonito dango!
Ringo
Hehe, you got it!
Can you really eat that many, Miss Yukari?!
Yukari
Don't worry, PLAYER.
Yukari
We're a family of three!
Yukari
...Hm, now I understand. Thank you for that valuable information.
Yukari
So the cold and stagnant Lunar Capital is more divided than I thought. Tsukuyomi, Chang'e, the moon emissaries...
Yukari
...the old Yagokoro faction and the Watatsuki sisters. They may just be rumors, but it's good to know about each faction.
Yukari
MG MG.
Huh? Are you eating the dango, Miss Yukari?
Yukari
I know how Ran will react if I return home with thirty dango... so I have to eat ten of them...
Yukari
Here, you can have one too. Help me out a little.
Thanks!
MG MG.
Yukari
Phew, seven more to go.
Yukari
I still have to eat seven more... (They're delicious, but I don't understand how Ringo can keep eating them non-stop...)
Ringo
Are you OK? Why don't you drink some tea?
Ringo
Anyway, thanks for the present, you two.
Ringo
You said this costume was to be a reminder of our talk, but I understand the meaning behind it. You don't have to explain.
Ringo
And, well, you can rely on Seiran and me when you need us. We were active soldiers until recently, after all.
Wait... Is it OK for you to divulge the moon's secrets?
Ringo
Oh, yeah, that's fine. There's no problem at all.
Ringo
I received permission from Lady Yagokoro to say everything that I told you. That was info that I'm allowed to talk about.
Ringo
So it's A-OK!
Yukari
D-Doesn't that mean...
Yukari
...we could have learned all that information for free if we went to Eientei?!
Ringo
Yeah, pretty much!
Wow, Ringo, you're such a great businesswoman!
Yukari
Curse you, Eientei...!
Yukari
Curse you, Eirin Yagokoro...!
Yukari
MG MG.
Yukari
THESE DANGO ARE DELICIOUS!
Costume Presentation
Ringo
When I'm with you, I feel a bit embarrassed about how I always try to find the secret truth behind things. Maybe I should connect to people more honestly too... Haha, this isn‘t like me. But I'll help you out if you need anything, so keep relying on me!
