An all too familiar gloved hand suddenly appeared out of no where as it snatches a piece of paper that was unfolded into a gap and vanished. The next moment, the blonde hair Youkai appeared from her gap as in her hand looked to be a folding of a simple crane. Her eyes inspecting what she made before looking at both Yuyuko and Youki. It was Yukari of course.
"It looks as if today was the right choice to visit after all." her smile so deviate yet inviting after making a comment.
"When was the last time that you came around here anyways?" she looked at the old swordsman to confirm his presence was true. It could of been many years when last Yukari has seen someone as old as Youki. Yukari eased herself from the gap to stand on her feet once more but then sat back down on her knees at the table and looked at the two.
"Yuyuko, you still fold Origami so perfect that I think you are creating actual creatures." a usual compliment as she sat her crane down on the table next to the others.
"So tell us Mr.Swordsman, where have you been all this time?" As if Yukari did need to know. Her eyes were nearly everywhere in Gensokyo. Then again, she likes to play ignorant to her own powers then and again for the sake of fun.
((hoping I am able to jump in now. Otherwise i will delete))

"Well she is still young, Konpaku- kun~ " Yuyuko giggled, holding the origami up almost as if waiting for Yukari's hand to snatch it away. She only smiled as the paper was taken," Youmi still has a bits of time to improve. She is diligent so I am sure she will be worthy of her blades in no time!"
The ghost smiled at Yukari as she gave the crane back,"There is that art does not discriminate the dead or the live Yukari~" The ghos giggled behind her sleeve,"Do you know that if you are dead your art is worth twice as much~?! I bet I could sell on of my origami butterflies for 5000 yen! (Because I am dead~)"
"That is a good question," Yuyuko sobered for a second, turning to Youki,"What brigs you to Hakugyokurou, Konpaku-kun?"

Youmu said that she was not grumpy, but rather she did not enjoy being scared. "Understandable." Lunasa said. Youmu told Lunasa and Merlin to excuse her outburst. Before Merlin could say anything smart, Lunasa clapped her hand over her mouth. "It's alright, we must apologize for our intrusion, really." Lunasa said, releasing Merlin from her grip. Youmu said that she did not believe that lady Yuyuko had any plans and to check in with her a little later. Lunasa nodded. She pointed her finger at her violin and it flew over to her. She then proceeded to play a song. She did not play very loud, but she still played. Merlin followed Youmu, choosing not to interrupt her sister's focus. "I'm bo~red." Merlin declared. She floated up close to Yomu, making her trumpet poke Youmu's ghost half. "What do you guys do around here for fun?" Merlin asked the gardener. She didn't think about whether or not she was annoying the poor girl; she was just bored.

Youmu turned to listen as Lunasa began to play her trademark instrument. The melody that so blissfully hummed from the violin was beautiful, there was no question in that, but somehow the tune also unnerved Youmu; it felt like it would bring bad tidings.
Putting aside the small notion of dread, Youmu continued her short trek to the kitchen, half-aware of the phantom sister following behind her closely. "Bored? Surely there must be somethING--" Youmu jumped slightly as her ghost half was poked, a small shiver running down her spine. "H-Hey! Don't do that, you..!" She waved her hand, shooing the tailed orb of shimmering moonlight away from the pesky phantom; it hid on the opposite side of Youmu, squirming slightly.
"A-Ah, fun? Hm..." Youmu pondered momentarily, a finger placed to her chin. "...Well, sometimes Lady Yuyuko holds drinking parties for guests (though I am usually the one serving the alcohol), and sometimes I will cook a special dish for her. Other than that, Lady Yuyuko has her own ways of keeping herself busy, such as the origami she was performing as you two interrupted."

 Youki walked over to the opposite side of the table and took a seat across from Yuyuko and joined her in making the origami creatures, not surprised at all by Yukari's sudden appearance. Smiling, he replied to both of their questions, "Well,long story short, I've been on a spiritual journey of self-enlightenment. As for why I've returned now, I felt its about time to move on to the next stage of Youmu's training. Although seeing her now, first she still needs to learn to control her emotions better." As he spoke, he had picked up a piece of paper in each hand and with each had folded a perfect origami crane, sitting them both on the table when he was done.

"It is interesting to hear that the dead's handy work can sell for a lot." She replied as Yukari watched Youki sit down and talk about another phase of training.
"Controlling emotions huh?" she thought out loud as a portal opened to her left as she stuck her hand in and plucked something out. As it closed, the sound of someone getting annoyed could be faintly heard as she placed what she pulled off on the table. It was no bigger than a marble and yet black as a shadow.
"Let's hear your ideas before I resort to giving this to Youmu." her smile hid behind a fan as the tiny black marble opened a small eye and blinked. It sprouted thin legs just as Yukari picked it up to keep it controlled. She would explain what it was after hearing Youki's ideas and Yuyuko's.
"This is a Maremite. This tiny thing is able to bound inside an object, living or non, and create a false shroud of fright. It only works one time of course and the power is not enough to be truly scary to most humans...but-" Another gap opened as Yukari placed the Maremite into the Ghost Half of Youmu which upon Youmu looking at it once would display a scary face in her eyes only. Once it did it's job, all traces of it vanished as if it never existed.
"- With someone like Youmu-chan, it can prove to be quite hilarious." After hearing her reaction, Yukari would chuckle at the sound she would hear. But what was the point of demonstrating? Maybe Yukari just enjoyed torturing those around her and she just wanted an excuse to exploit it.

"I rather you don't go and frighten my servant for your enjoyment, Yukari," Yuyuko had stood and moved to get some tea on the stove,"I would,ike you to respect my word in my home, and not go causing Youmu problems for your amusement. What we want is to give her control of her emotions not show her how easily frightened she is."
"My advise is; simple training," Yuyuko commented as she began mixing some herbs," WE don't need more trouble now do we~? "

Merlin giggled at Youmu's reaction. That ghost was part of the gardener, some how. Once Youmu moved her ghost half, Merlin's trumpet floated back over to her, floating around behind her. When Youmu told her what they usually do for fun, Merlin sighed. "Aww, but there's nothing happeneing NOW." Merlin continued to complain. She continued to follow Youmu, and decided to see if she could get her to do something... She was also a tad curious about those swords of hers. "Hey, how do you train with those?" Merlin asked, pointing to Youmu's swords. "I mean, if what you showed me and Lunasa is all you can do with those things than you'll need better training." Merlin giggled, leaning back, resting her arms behind her head and floating in mid air. Merlin looked surprised as she watched a gap open by Youmu's ghost half. A hand reached out and placed something on it, or rather in it. "What...?" Merlin mumbled, trying to figure out what just happened. Lunasa continued to play her violin, this time playing a different tune. Even though she was playing, she kept her eyes and ears open for any sort of activity within the palace.

Merlin's otherwise innocent question about her swords made Youmu's eyebrow twitch.
"Better training?" She said with a smile, wrapping her slender fingers around Roukanken. "I'll have you know that I practice daily, without missing a single session. As for how I train, I have certainly found my ways--"
There was a blinding flash of steel. In an instant, too quick for most eyes to see, Youmu had drawn Roukanken in a wide arc. The blade cut the air, and managed to disperse the sound waves produced by Lunasa's violin, temporarily causing her performance to hiccup. All Merlin would see after the instant that nobody saw was Youmu now slightly crouched, with Roukanken held outwards.
"My skill is self taught, and I am quite satisfied with my level of training. Lady Yuyuko doesn't complain, either." Youmu straightened her posture, moving her arm to hold Roukanken in front of her, the blade almost seemed to give off a low hum as its sharpness continued to cut the air.
"Now, if you'll excuse me..." With a smooth, practiced motion, Youmu returned Roukanken to its sheath, "I must return to my cleaning." With that, Youmu began to walk away, her shimmering spirit-half floating behind her.

Youki frowned in thought for a moment before saying, "I agree with Yuyuko-san, however mastering her fears is the first thing she needs to work on. I believe your idea could help with that Yukari-san"(sorry the post is so short, wanted to get this going again but having trouble thinking of anything)

Yukari smirked under her fan.
"Oh I am only here to watch. No doubt the best teacher that little Youmu should master her fear from is you." her attention was turned to Yuyuko once more as she closed her fan to her.
"You are right. I was only using the information I learned just to have a bit of fun out of it. Sadly, the other downfall of the Maremite is that once it scares a person, it's illusions usually do not work twice within the span of a day on the same being." Yukari took a sip of her tea as her smile was wide enough before she mentioned something to Youki.
"By the way, I recently witnessed a sort of special fighting style that used two strange curved weapons that was a cross between a fan dance but a dual sword fighting style. I have never seen such a strange display in my life. Though it will never be as beautiful as Yuyuko's fan dance." she spoke, not only complimenting a friend but also implying that there might be a sort of new challenge for Youki. though the description of it seems to be more of a performance than fighting. Nevertheless, Yukari was interested in watching how Youki plans to teach Youmu in any way possible. She would lend her aid as much as she could.

Yuyuko went about serving the tea, opting ti stay silent as the two spoke. It is obvious they would continue with their plan as they pleased either or, so there was no point in concerning herself with what they chose to do. She would deal withthe poor Youmu after these two di whatever they felt was right.
"Oh my fan dance has various rivals," Yuyuko sipped her tea idly, ignoring the compliment in a small way to show her annoyance at their choice of action.
