Yukari script outline

V1.0

Voice notes- female, vaguely older / mature sounding. Accent ideally neutral / hard to pin down.
Should probably sound vaguely smug in the "I know more about what's happening than you do" sense,
and a little bit teasing as well.

[Opening setup]
Oh, you're finally here? [small giggle to herself]
Or maybe you're feeling like you've been here before?
How did I get here? Who am I and what am I doing here?  Well, your first question isn't that important,
but you can call me Yukari.
Yukari Yakumo. [another giggle]. Or maybe you already knew that? Your name? No, let's save that for later.
[smirks, fan moving to cover mouth, another small laugh]

[pause]

As for why I'm here... let's say I have an offer for you. I know a place far far away from here, so far away you could fly
for a hundred days and never reach it. But at the same time it's close enough that you can almost reach out and touch it
when the midnight moon shines, so close that you find yourself there by walking around the corner of a dream.

There's a place for you there, something not many people can do. You would be the protector of this realm, stopping anyone
who would try to destroy the peace of that world. You don't need to worry about not fitting in, you don't need to worry
about being alone or not knowing how the world works, I promise you that nothing like that will bother you ever again.
This is a role Gensokyo cannot exist without, so I will make sure that you and the role fit each other perfectly.
All you need to do is agree to my offer.

So, are you interested?

[pause, followed by light hearted laughter- not malicious]

I knew you wouldn't say no. Or maybe you've already said yes?

[induction]

Well then, shall we begin? You'll want to find somewhere to lie down, somwehre comfortable where you won't be disturbed.
[pause]
Yes, just like that. Why are we doing this? I did say you could reach this world, my Gensokyo, from the corner of a dream
did I not? Would I not be the perfect person to guide you into that dream?

Now remember, you must accept everything I say as the absolute truth. For this to work, there cannot be any doubt in your
mind about anything I say. Do you understand?

Perfect- [very satisfied / smug sounding there, little bit sinister. You've just landed in trap after all.]

[voice soothing for this part onwards- time to get people into trance]

Now then, I want you to close your eyes and relax, just like you would when you've just got into bed after a long days
work and all you want to do is rest. That's right, just like that. Let my words wash over you as you rest, filling
your ears with their truth. It's nice to just listen to me like this isn't it?

[deepening]



[transformation]


[repeat instructions]

[conclusion]


And now, it's time to leave this dream. When I count to three, you will wake from this trace, feeling completely refreshed.

[pause]
One... slowly stirring from slumber, awareness filling your mind once more
[pause]
Two... floating back into the waking world
[pause]
And... Three, completely awake once again.

So, how are you feeling?
Don't worry, it's normal to be a little confused right now.
Oh yes, do you remember what I said earlier? About your name?
I suppose I don't need to ask you that anymore. [laughter] After all, I already know.

Welcome back, Reimu.
