Reimu slept better than she expected to. Maybe the ceiling of vines, leaves, and flowers had helped. Whatever those glowing blue lights were had also disappeared. She stepped out of her plush mushroom bed and cringed at the touch of the cold moss floor. She sat there adapting to it before she stood up properly and moved to leave the room.
She found Chen in the main sitting room, drawing something. The cat turned to her and said, “Hi, Reimu!”

This isn't WaHH Reimu so there's a non-zero chance of it going well. A very low chance
