The vines would have ended up ripping it apart with a combination of the vines digging into the cracks of the statue and exploding roses, but actual explosives work out just fine too. Koishi ducked down, covering her ears just in time for it to go off. She still flinched, the little satori quite sensitive to loud noises, and the random pieces of stone falling on her head couldn't have been helping either. At least the statue was gone though.
"That was a loud and inelegant bang mister." Koishi shook her head to clear it. "You should learn magic so you don't have to use such crude means. Then you can play danmaku with me too." Of course Koishi didn't understand how or why Ted was against using magic himself. She didn't seem angry at least.
She took a sip of the tea, pausing and blinking down at it. "This is really good tea Mister!" Another sip before handing it to Ted. "I don't taste any magic or anything strange..." A pause. "Actually it tastes like the Nice Maid's tea from the big red house at home! She makes all sorts of things!" *** Elsewhere, Sakuya was tapping her heel on the ground watching the duo through magical means... She had recognized that teakettle and did not know who had moved it into that room or why. She had set up one of her special blends for the afternoon snack later... Yes she could make more but it didn't make it any less irritating! And with a good bit of the tea removed the kettle would end up getting scorched if left on the flame like that!
She took a breath and pushed the irritation to the back of her mind, resting back in her chair. She made a mental note to make more tea later... Also to scold those maids for letting intruders pass so easily. Absolutely disgraceful! *** Koishi stared for a long moment at the wind-stone before taking it from him and holding it to her ear. She giggled. "I can sense magic in it Mister. I bet it does something really neat and clever. I'm not sure what though." She stuck it in her pocket for now. It would be safe there.
The next prize made Koishi pause in her tracks, tilting her head to the side. "Cheese?" She picked it up and took a bite, her eyebrows raisin subtly. "Mm! It's really good cheese Mister!" She practically shoved a chunk in Ted's mouth before it was somehow put away in the bag. At least she was taste-testing all the random food they found but she should probably make sure to save enough room for the rest of the journey. Then again she had eaten all that pudding and seemed to be just fine...
The vertical room took her a little by surprise, the little youkai staring up through the bizarre maze of... stuff. She looked to Ted and then looked back up, pouting a little bit. "Who builds a house like this? It seems... Dumb. Unless everyone can fly. Then it's fine I guess... Sort of." She didn't sound too sure of herself. Needless to say she began drifting up through the room with a practiced ease, dodging or batting the tossed bones to the side and blasting any skeleton who dared appear in her line of sight. "Come on Mister. This room is boring! Let's keep going!"
