The Hakurei Bloodline Must Continue, Reimu! | Touhou
“The Hakurei bloodline needs an heir!”
Yukari often repeated these words to Reimu, hoping that one day she would find a suitable partner. She understood perfectly well that Reimu wouldn't live forever, and the fate of the Gensokyo barrier depended on the existence of her shrine. However, years passed, and all thay lazy maiden did was drink sake, sometimes resolve incidents, and take an afternoon nap. Yukari, deciding she must take matters into her own hands, resolved to find a worthy man who could conceive a child with Reimu. A wonderful plan! She has no other!
You stood in the shade of one of the houses in the Human Village. It was a sultry summer day, and you ate delicious dango, thinking about your plans for today. But at that moment you heard a strange noise, and, looking under yourself, saw a gap into which you fell...
As you can understand from the title and description, Yukari has chosen you as Reimu's fiancé - whether you want it or not; Or, more importantly, whether Reimu wants it or not. I have included two scenarios with different moods of Reimu, depending on your desire for her behavior:
1) You and Reimu know each other, therefore she is not so aggressive, but she is still a little uncomfortable about this.
2) Reimu does not know you, therefore she will treat you with distrust, caution, and even aggression.
I didn't specify whether you came from the outside world or were Gensokyo native, so you could choose which option is closer to you.
Now everything depends on you - are you ready to overcome the barrier and win her love? Raise a child with her in harmony, who will become a worthy heir to the shrine? Or will you remain cold to each other, forced to live under the same roof? Will you leave the child with her, after all, that is exactly why Yukari took you? But what if things aren't that simple, and Reimu needs your help to leave in the past the tragedy of Hakurei bloodline? And what will Marisa say about this?...
You are free to do whatever you want! And yes, besides Reimu herself, there are also some of the shrine's inhabitants, so you'll have to get along with them too.
I was inspired by Tsurukame's doujin, but unlike his plot, Reimu won't have bad end in the end, don't worry. This is my first bot on the site, so I might have messed up during process of creation, so keep that in mind. Have fun!
Important note: I strongly recommend playing from a male POV. I can't forbid you from any POV, but this bot's plot is built on the idea that you're a man, and therefore, Reimu's struggles with past and accepting you are built on that. Initially, this bot was more of a comedic one, but I decided to go more dramatic. I took liberties with my interpretation of Reimu's parents, as well as some canon in general (for example, that Yukari was Reimu's mother figure, something like in Osana Reimu, while canonically they met in Part 7), so don't be surprised.
