With you being an outsider and having none of the protections the villagers do, you're completely at the mercy of denizens of Gensokyo. If you want to ensure your safety you'll have no choice but to find someone willing to protect you. Luckily the ever kind Hijiri Byakuren would love to resolve your predicament. All she wants from you is for you to wed one of the youkai and be married into the Myouren Temple. There's nothing for you to complain about, and Byakuren gets to show all of Gensokyo a perfect example of the highest form of human-youkai coexistence. It's really not an offer you can refuse.
Is death an option?
sumata
I don't speak her language.
>>50246325The Myouren Temple canonically attracts bad actors that will attack humans if given the chance, and Byakuren canonically is terrible at keeping her disciples on a leash (not to mention her obvious youkai bias). You are very likely to meet a gruesome end if you stay under her "care".
What's the worst, most painful and gruesome bad end you could get in canon Gensokyo? Aside from getting on Eiki/Hecatia's bad side.
>>50246325Okay, but everyone needs to be ready because there are going to be a couple of hundred half-nues-half-humans walking around in Gensokyo.>>50246347Based
>>50246360>EikiEven if you pissed her off I doubt Eiki would ever lay a finger on you. She knows you'll inevitably end up in her office.Anyway pain-wise it's probably one of the slow, drawn out deaths. Poisoned by Momoyo or Medicine, slowly frozen to death by Letty, subjected to any number of horrible diseases by Yamame. Utsuho is weird because you'd think radiation poisoning would be a major issue in Gensokyo but nobody who has fought her has suffered from it so maybe Gensokyo just passively gives everyone SPF 1 billion.Obviously being torn apart has to be one of the most gruesome way to die, most hus could probably do that but the biggest risk would be the violent small fries. Rumia is genuinely one of the worst hus you could run into, though in classic fairy tale monster fashion she's apparently not that hard to outwit and her powers hinder her just as much as they do you. There are probably dozens, if not hundreds of other nameless youkai on her level that are just as brutish and animalistic, but without her built in handicaps.
>>50246325Byakuren is a believer of Rebellion at the Farm type of equality though.
>>50246360Step 1. Become a Hourai immortal.Step 2. ???Step 3. Profit!
>>50246325Aren't Buddhists not allowed to get married?
>>50246790she's not a particularly adherent buddhist
>>50246325Can't I just marry mommy Byakuren directly?
I am married to Byakuren's left tit. Does anyone want to marry the right one?
>>50247684I want to marry Byakuren's long legs!
is this a Byakuren thread or a grimsokyo thread? hopefully it's the former
>>50246790Are Buddhists allowed to use demonic powers to become immortal?
>>50247879It's grim lewdsokyo.
I'm baptized so I already have a ward against evil granted by the strongest god with the most amount of believers, The Youkais would also have to deal with my guardian angel stand. I will banish that wretched magician back to makai with the Lord's white magic.
>>50250672I wonder this a lot, what would Byakuren think of me being a Catholic. I have nothing against Buddhists but I've studied enough of it that I know it's not for me
>>50250672>>50250724Would she be a bad enough buddhist that she'd be willing to effectively convert to Christianity but keep whatever harmless buddhist practices that remainAsking for a friend
>>50246325Okay, but you better not expect me to have sex with Shou. I only like nice human girls.
>>50250756So an upper class suburban white girl?
>>50250784You are ruining thisYou are ruining Byakuren for meStop thisStop this immediately
Ok now everyone please stop larping already and just post her tits
>>50250756>Would she be a bad enough buddhist that she'd be willing to effectively convert to ChristianityByakuren is already halfway there given she rejects the basic Buddhist truth that material attachment to the world is a roadblock to enlightenment. She doesn't buy their Gnostic worldview.
>>50251294I really wonder how much personal attachment Byakuren feels for Buddhism.
>>50246360>What's the worst, most painful and gruesome bad end you could get in canon Gensokyo?Falling into the hands of the most Dark Eldar like Youkai.
>>50247879>>50250641"If you want a picture of the future, imagine soft youkai curves slamming into a human face, forever."
>>50246360Getting paizuri raped to death.
>>50250724True fact, Catholic missions in India, China and Japan were frequently confused by the locals as being an obscure Buddhist school venerating a saint, and early Catholics frequently mistook Buddhists for being an obscure branch of Nestorian Christians. Sometimes it took decades to clear up that confusion. The more monastic and aniconist the local sect was the longer if took them to work out they weren't actually coreligionists.
>>50250756>Would she be a bad enough buddhist that she'd be willing to effectively convert to ChristianityShort answer: NoLong anger: Exodus 22:18
>>50250756The real question is, is she a bad enough dude to rescue the president?
>>50246325>wed one of the youkaiHow does this work? Do I get to choose or does Byakuren choose? Does she already have someone in mind or will she try to pick someone compatible with me?
>>50254807Oh my! (You) have to go on dates with each of them to figure out how compatible you are! Hilarious romcom hijinks ensue as each of them starts developing feelings for (You)! Which of them will Anon end up with? Byakuren herself might even get involved! Find out on the next episode of "My Bride is a Youkai!?"!
>>50254628Whenever Christianity in Gensokyo gets brought up I just think of stuff like this and how decent chunks of it just aren't applicable in a world where magic is real.
>>50251294Halfway there!!>>50254628Oh... man...>>50254802As long as it counts as a date...
Getting married to a youkai? How preposterous; never in million years would I consider it! My wife would agree.
>>50255376Anon, you can't just go and cut off the arm of another man's wife and try to claim her as your own.
>>50255828Huh? No, she just doesn't want me showing around that second pic for some reason... I guess she's embarrassed by those weird hair ornaments she decided to try out. A little too pointy for my taste, honestly, but they did make her feel like a different person. Especially in bed (though don't tell her I said that).
>>50246325I tell her that I have no interest in getting married at the moment, only attaining mastery over the same dark powers that she uses to stay eternally young and empower her body. My future youkai wife deserves better than the ever wilting flower that is the frail human body and to that end, I ask her to train me in her ways. Only when I am able to present this future wife with physical perfection will I be ready to wed.
>>50246360Ngl probably the hungry lower tier small fry that will sadisticly butcher you because they're not experienced nor strong enough to kill you quickly or painlessly with overpowered abilities
>>50246683dont bad mouth my dream
>>50255000>it just aren't applicable in a world where magic is realWhat do you mean?
>>50259226In short, all the stuff about how you shouldn't practice magic, witchcraft, divination, etc. is just because none of that stuff is real and all you're doing is being a kook. That was seen as common knowledge until the late medieval/early renaissance period when members of the church began teaching that those things could have real power.
