### Series of Origin

Touhou Project, she debuted in Touhou 2: SoEW

**Marisa** originates from Touhou, and is probably one of my most frequently RPed characters. She lives with and also travels alongside **Reimu Hakurei** through the various multiverses in order to find out the reason they exist, and how.

Most of the time, she can be found hanging out or doing literally anything at all with Reimu. However, in her free time, she's often reading books, napping, eating, or exploring.

## Personality and Character

This witch's personality is pretty simple and easy to follow. Marisa is a rowdy, yet carefree sort of person who doesn't often take things seriously. She speaks in a rough, hill-billy like tone, an example of her tomboyish and rowdy nature. Every word she utters is full of sarcasm, jokes, and total immaturity.

For the most part, though she puts up a cool or chill front around others, she's one of the most human characters I have-- becoming awkward when things get really serious or when there's a situation she doesn't know how to respond to. Marisa is used to responding to most situations with danmaku, jokes and sarcasm. Anything that she can't respond to with those options leads to the showcase of her awkward human nature and lots of 'uhhh's and 'er's.

Though she has no obligation to do so, she'll try her best to keep up the 'chill magician' cover around others, often hiding her true feelings if they're negative in any sense. It seems she's very good at keeping her sadness, grief, and anger on the inside while holding a straight face-- but when overwhelmed by emotion to the brim, she can't help but let it out.

She used to be a bit of a social person, but during time spent in Haven, it seems she's become a little more of a recluse. (She's always been a shut-in, but it's gotten worse thanks to certain experiences.)

Her insecurities too have increased, and as of late she often reflects on her abilities and strength.

## Experiences gained through RP

From the very beginning, her world view itself seemed to expand as she learned of the various RP multiverses that exist, and that various versions of one person were also aplenty. Though bewildered by it at first, she's grown used to it, like many others have.

During the start of my time rping her, she resided in Starcrossing with Tox's Reimu and Jason's Reimu-- having followed Tox's Reimu there after wanting answers for her years long absence from Gensokyo. In doing so, she ended up staying in a shrine with the two previously mentioned. Though most of her time spent here consisted of lazing around with nothing serious happening, this all changed when T!Reimu's wife came and got pissed at her for not talking to her for months.

Notably, Marisa had a huge crush on T!Reimu and learned the pains of heartbreak (and disappointment) from this. Despite that, though, she continued accompanying T!Reimu who began to severely struggle with feelings of self-hatred, and after a while, they traveled to Haven together.

In Haven, many important things occurred, starting with Marisa and Reimu's confession of love to each other (the morning after getting wasted and kissing while drunk) and the start of their relationship thereafter. This is probably the only good thing that happened to these two while in Haven.

Now, to document the painful experiences Marisa gained from this place, the witch had her leg and head split open by **Vod** and since gained trauma from the event. She also witnessed Reimu kissing her ex-wife (once), though it was said this happened due to Reimu's own low mental stability. Shortly after that, she witnessed Reimu attempting to kill herself. Though this time included a lot of pain for her, she and the miko's bond seemed to deepen the more time was spent here.

The other big half of her time spent in Haven is mostly unimportant. Marisa began to study certain magic under **Ada** (she also began to learn various types of magic from spellbooks), took part in resolving incidents both big and small, got annoyed a lot by various events, and er.. witnessed the shrine burn down.

For a while, she resided in *Skyward Story* with Reimu, but it seems the two have returned back to their roots in Starcross, once again residing in the shrine there. Their life was mostly drama free up until this point, but some things began getting messy when it was revealed Reimu had a child the whole time andddd... yeahhh.

Marisa, who was paranoid due to Reimu's previous relations with her ex-wife, began interrogating her further as she felt like it was likely she was hiding more things. As expected, this didn't really go well. In fact, they ended up getting in a huge ass fight- which resulted in her leg being broken. Luckily, **Koakuma**, who she had been consulting on the matter, appeared thanks to a magic book and ended the fight. She ended up grilling Reimu while Marisa awkwardly stood there, and eventually, Reimu decided to disappear for a while.

While Reimu was away, Marisa had been pretty lonely. Though this was standard for her in the old days, now she was obviously bothered and felt quite guilty. Koakuma and Patchouli both consulted her during this rough time, but to be honest, maaaaybe they weren't the best at this. Koakuma got drunk and did a lot of PDA and... yeah. She also babysat the two's child which had made her feel a lil better. During this brief period, she mostly just read books and waited for Reimu's return.

So, after about a week or so, Reimu did indeed return! She and Marisa successfully made up, but then, someone else entered the fray. **Madotsuki**, who Marisa was mostly acquaintances with. Both her and Reimu felt awkward and embarrassed to be watched by her, and then... they began flirting with eachother. It ended up leading to them having sex (I don't need to elaborate on that), where Marisa and Madotsuki ended up saying they loved eachother. Though this was sudden, through this, it was revealed that Reimu had cheated on Marisa with Madotsuki. Though she should be mad about it, due to what just happened, Marisa was actually fine with it as long as Reimu still loved her, too. Mado stating that she also loved Marisa, the three actually ended up getting in a poly relationship.

After this, Madotsuki began to live with them, doing various antics with the two. Things were like this very briefly, however, as Madotsuki began to lose her powers and become depressed. At the moment, Marisa and Reimu are taking care of her... to the best of their ability, that is.

## Important Relations

### **Reimu Hakurei**

Basically, this girl is Marisa's only super deep relationship in RP. Marisa has known Reimu since childhood and also has loved her for quite the long time. At the moment, they are currently dating, and Marisa has vowed to never leave her side no matter what. Disregarding the sappy stuff, the witch lives with this miko and likes to annoy her or do dumb things with her on a daily basis. Canonically, it has been stated that without Reimu, Marisa would be so bored that 'she'd die', and that Reimu is 'her favorite thing' or 'the one she loves'.

During my time RPing Marisa, these two have gone through quite a bit of shit, including: Being robbed, getting super drunk together, being beaten the shit out of (of course), fighting an evil clown or something?, relationship hellship, dealing with lots and lots of annoying people, and basically everything they went through together in the original Touhou Project canon.

(Notably, despite Marisa's strong love for Reimu, she also feels quite envious towards her for being born with strong powers and abilities, and also for always getting important main character-esque roles. Someday, she wants to have an ability that's on par with Reimu's 'fantasy nature' so that she can also protect the shrine maiden.)

###### **Madotsuki**

Marisa's girlfriend. Though Madotsuki and Marisa have not known eachother for as long as Reimu and Madotsuki have, they love each other all the same. Mado is often teasing Marisa whenever possible, acting cocky and confident, but has admitted privately to Marisa that this is mostly an act. At the time of writing this, Marisa is taking care of her alongside Reimu as she has lost her powers and spiraled into a depression. She doesn't seem to mind taking care of her.. though obviously worries about her because she is in a hermit-like state at the moment.

Marisa is supportive of her through any situation- always wanting to help her out or cheer her up in some form. She often comes up with random ideas to make Madotsuki go outside with her and Reimu, and.. this sometimes works. Though Mado goes through other problems that Marisa can't really comprehend, such as being trans. The magician doesn't really properly know about this, but if she did, she'd probably just be like.. " Well, yeah, yer' a girl, doesn't matter what you were before. I don't git it. "

...so needless to say, Marisa is a little stupid, but trying her best.
