Totally like Castor and Pollux. Only girls.
So we were discussing whether Reimu and Marisa would make a very good Spell Battle team and...
Reimu> "Trust", eh?
Reimu> ... Well
Reimu> It's certainly true that there's no LACK of trust between Reimu and Marisa.
Reimu> Or rather, I'd say that they're so comfortable around each other that it doesn't make much of a difference.
Marisa> I'm sure they trust each other very much.
Reimu> ...
* Reimu pets
Marisa> Hey, hey, I'm sure they do.
Reimu> Well
Reimu> Well
Reimu> ... Well
Reimu> ... At the very least
Reimu> Marisa has no reason to distrust Reimu.
Marisa> Pfft.
Reimu> That's.
Reimu> KIND of like trust.
Reimu> I mean
Reimu> If you kinda think about it
Reimu> Reimu is probably the most trustworthy partner you could possibly have!
Marisa> Reimu may be one of the few people who genuinely trusts Marisa, really, because she has no reason to care about the lying and stealing, and can simply trust her to be Marisa.
Marisa> Untrustworthy, untrustworthy Marisa.
Reimu> Yeah!
Reimu> ... Also Reimu kinda just.
Reimu> Knows Marisa too well.
Reimu> They know each other really well.
Reimu> ... So that's.
Reimu> KIND of like a bond!
Marisa> Yeah.
Reimu> So yeah!
Reimu> It works!
Reimu> ... Kind of!
Marisa> Well.
Marisa> They can generally trust each other to survive whatever foolishness they get involved in.
Reimu> Exactly!
Reimu> And I'm sure that there's no one Marisa would rather entrust her safety and wellbeing to than Reimu.
Reimu> If by nothing other than process of elimination.
Marisa> Yes, assuming "herself" is not an option.
Reimu> Yes.
Reimu> I mean, Alice is a wimp
Reimu> And Patchy can barely take care of herself
Reimu> And Kourin is Kourin.
Reimu> That just leaves Reimu.
Reimu> See?
Marisa> Haha what can Kourin even do.
Reimu> Precisely.
Marisa> On top of that, while Reimu is the last person Marisa would want to lose face to, she's nonetheless the best person to lose face to, since she is completely unaffected by face in the first place.
Reimu> Yeah!
Reimu> Best friends!
Marisa> It's definitely something similar enough to trust that we can basically get away with calling it trust. I'm sure of it.
Reimu> ...
Reimu> Closest thing possible to trust as far as Touhou's concerned?
Marisa> There you go.
* Reimu nods
Marisa> Best friends.
Reimu> Totally.
SO in short, Reimu and Marisa are bestest best buddies forever.
