You both sit quietly as the stars begin to shine, and the moon, which just so happens to be full, rises, great and yellow. Yuuka sits unmoving, looking out in a manner that suggest she has spent many nights alone in this very way. You, her guest, though more relaxed than earlier, are still wary of this yokai. Though she has shown you nothing but hospitality, and has a refined manner that could not possibly be mistaken as monstrous, you can't shake the rumors that you've heard. That this Yuuka Kazami, the sunflower yokai, is really a terror who eats and kills any who trespass onto her lands. Suddenly she begins to speak,
>"You...must be--"
Before she can finish a great rustling fills the air. A great multitude of fire flies burst forth from the surrounding fields. Then, as if following along to some unheard symphony, they begin to dance across the sky forming all manner of patterns. You watched this unheard of performance in awe. After several minutes of this dance, the fireflies group up, and mimicking fireworks flying up, explode into the shapes of various flowers. Yuuka is clearly pleased at this, though her face never goes beyond just a slight smile. The fireflies disperse, but a dark shape shoots in and lands on the balustrade.
>"YUUUUUKA-SAN! did you like Wriggle's full moon perfor--WAH!"
It was a small yokai who resembled a young girl. She is wearing an odd cape, and has green hair almost like Yuuka's, but not as brilliant, and little antennae.
>"Yuuka-san has a guest?!"
She darts behind Yuuka's chair and peers out at you from behind it.
>"It's okay Wriggle. This man was just lost."
Wriggle looks at you suspiciously.
>"You...you are nice to insects right?"
You respond that you are, in fact, nice to insects.
>"Good. Because if you're not, we'll have a really big problem!"
Wriggle tries her best to look intimidating, though still hiding behind Yuuka, who puts a hand on her head.
>"Thank you Wriggle, your performance was very lovely."
>"heh heh!"
A satisfied Wriggle hops back onto the balustrade, and with her hands on her hips, now apparently exuding confidence says to you,
>"You better be nice to Yuuka-san mister! No one ever visits her because they are always scared. But Wriggle likes Yuuka-san, since Yuuka-san like insects. Wriggle told everyone not to eat Yuuka-san's flowers, but if you're mean to her, I'll tell them to eat you!"
Wriggle narrows her eyes at you one last time, then flies off.

The best Yuuka artists were Mokku, Asutora, and Shirayuki Epe.
Mokku was missing for years, but posted new art last year. Asutora doesn't draw her anymore. Shirayuki drew another one recently, but it's called "finale" if that means anything.
