This was quite interesting. The human/inhuman and can fly/can't fly themes are very common in ReiMari doujin, but Rireba handled it pretty well here, I think.

Also the whole top/bottom thing with Yukari was funny! XD
Mildly sore about the fact that Renko and Yukari are holding hands while Merry's all the way on the other side, though... Feels like cheating somehow. I didn't realise Fantasy Melt was supposed to be read as MerryRen rather than RenMerry either, it just never came off that way to me... Hm.

I can't seem to recall where, but I think I read something like this from ZUN referring that Marisa was never said to be unable to fly without a broom or something, and that she does that only to fill her role as a witch.

Anyway it was really interesting, fun and even mysterious, I like it. ReiMari as a plus is also always welcomed.

Such a chill story.

I do hope all the stories on the compilation are eventually translated though (I'm very curious about the KeiMoukou and Yukari ones).

^I just want the part two to this story. :P

Anyways, there hasn't been much Marisa x Reimu lately and it's my favorite Touhou pairing. :c So I was very happy to see this. :P

Nice story! can't wait for the rest.

Not sure why they're not all up here, but the remaining Rireba works mentioned in the afterword should be accessible from here:

Ah, thanks for the heads-up.

i like how the final exchange with reimu calls back to the dream that marisa had at the start

hmmm this aside, can canon Marisa fly without her broom? I've seen in some manga (lotus eater and fs) she looks like need her broom to fly, but I can't find the official statement about Marisa can't fly without her broom
