Cirno 6/6
pic rel Okina's dream
----
As she fell into the backdoor on Narumi and entered the land of the backdoors, memories came flooding back, seeing all these doors again for the first time in forever. Actually, Thinking about it, Cirno didn’t remember much of either of the times she’d been here. There was that lady who looked a lot like that other lady Clownpiece knew, but she controlled doors, not fire or whatever Clownpiece’s mom did.

Although Cirno had no idea where Nazrin had fled to, maybe the chair lady knew she should check up with her, and she was supposed to be pretty strong, right? She could help Cirno save Anon. She shook her head in affirmation of her thoughts.


“It’s been a while, fairy. Cirno, if I remember correctly.” Okina said in a casual tone. She looked down at Cirno from her chair on the elevated platform behind Cirno.

Spinning around to face the voice, Cirno exclaims. “Ah, you’re the chair lady! Have you seen Nazrin?” as she gazes up at Okina.

“To answer your first question, you may call me Okina Matara or Matrajin, whichever you prefer, and this is the fourth time we’ve met,” Okina states with a patient tone, one reserved for a child. “And to answer your second question, yes I have seen your friend, although she isn’t taking visitors right now.”

“Well, I need to ask her some questions. I’m trying to save Anon. he’s been kidnapped by a witch. Rumia says Naz-chan knows some people looking to help him.”

“Really now?” Okina says, raising an eyebrow inquisitively as her chair floats from its platform, “Although, personally, I would be more concerned with your current state.”

“Huh?” A curious look crosses Cirno’s face as the multicolored lights of the backdoor world reflect off her wings. “Your instability, as a fairy. Your kind are nature deities of sorts, although immature and weak.” Okina explains as she floats down to Cirno’s eye level. “As of now, you are self-sustaining, but as you increase in power, you will naturally increase in instability thin-”

“Oh!” Cirno says, holding her hand up. “I know this one. I’m like a nuclear reactor, right?” she states more than asks. “When a fissile material absorbs a neutron, it splits, releasing energy in the form of into the reactor, but as this process is unstable, control rods must be inserted to decrease instability.” Cirno rambled off from memory. For a second, all Okina could do was look befuddled before she started chuckling. “Oh, sorry for interrupting. Okuu talks about that stuff a lot.”

“It’s okay. You have the basics right; you are a reactor, and your power is the fissile material.” Okina says as she gestures towards where Cirno’s heart would be. “And have the control rod.” She says, gesturing to her own heart with a satisfied expression on her face and a smug tone in her voice.

“Huh?” Cirno asks, “What I’m saying is that the answer to your problems is simple,” Okina says before gesturing to herself again. “Me, As a god, I am capable of stabilizing your existence with my own. A college of mine did something similar to a friend of Nazrin.” Cirno hadn’t noticed it before, but the way she said Nazrin’s name sounded off. “As well as helping you with this Anon fellow.”

Okina’s face broke into a disturbing smile, then, “I even have a uniform prepared for when the time comes. See.” At her word, a green door materialized behind Okina and opened to reveal a fairy-sized blue douji uniform. Cirno cringed. It was somehow one of the most disturbing things she had ever seen.

“So, fairy, how about it?” Okina said as she outstretched her hand. “Work for me, and all your desires will be fulfilled. This I promise you.” Okina moved her chair forward to where she was within the reach of CIrno’s arms.

“You’ll really help Anon?” Cirno asks in a childish and questioning tone, looking into Okina’s eyes. “Yes, but you shouldn’t forget about stabilizing your own existence; caring for others is good and all, but you are neither an island that sits alone nor a buffet anyone can eat from,” Okina said in an overly motherly and lecturing tone that Cirno had heard a bit too often from that pink Oni who used to hang out with Reimu.

Sighing, Cirno took Okina’s hand. “Fine, fine, stop nagging me already. I accept.”

“Wonderful, it’ll be great to have you on in the future,” Okina said. Although my other douji candidate probably won’t work out, that’s fine. Even with Cirno’s increased instability, she still has decades before it would become an issue.
---
This takes place shortly after Okina already decided to go after Anon. So she's manipulating Cirno by distracting her with something that's not an immediate issue and getting someone else whose in Gensokyo 100%. also If I didn't make it clear enough, she's not a douji yet.
