The Smart Wild Yukkuri
Summary:
Marisa found something and hurriedly run back to tell the whole clan about what she discovered.
In the mountain is a clan of smart wild yukkuri. They are led by a Dosu who made pact with human. In the opening, the clan's yukkuri is enjoying their day after hunting, watched by Dosu.
Marisa arrived with a news. She found an easy place where Mister Vegetables grow on its own.
The clan look at Marisa pitifully. They and Dosu quickly understand the situation. Marisa has saw the human's farm. They also see through why Marisa is coming.
That easy place must be Mister Human's farm. Besides, if Marisa really found such easy place, she would have eat it herself and bring them back. In reality, they know there's human there so Marisa had to run back to the clan, she want to get support from the whole clan.
Marisa doesn't hide it anymore. Human unjustly hogs all the vegetables.
The clan know, vegetables grow because human are taking care of it. They have been taught since their childhood that vegetables doesn't grow on their own. Those are grown by humans.
Instead, it's uneasy Marisa who want to hog all the vegetables from human.For Marisa, what Dosu said is a blasphemy. Vegetables grow on its own to let yukkuri feel easy.
Dosu asked back, did Marisa ever see the vegetables grow on their own ? Of course not. For yukkuri's understanding, they only realized the vegetable is already there, they don't have the ability to see how the vegetable grows.Moreover, the clan has nothing to do with the vegetables. By their agreement, Dosu's clan have the mountain while human have the hills. Each live on their own not bothering each others. This is why the clan is not exterminated. With Dosu's teaching to not take more than what they need, the clan can flourish and live an easy life in the mountain next to human's village.
Yukkuri take it easy in their easy place in the mountain, while human take it easy in their easy place on the hills.Does Marisa feel unsatisfied with the mushroom in the mountain ? Human never came to say yukkuri is hogging all the mushroom and take it back, so why should yukkuri do the same thing to human ? Why should they make human can't do munch munch ?
It's Marisa who's being an uneasy scum who think all the vegetables belong to yukkuri. They already have enough food in the mountain, so there's no need to take away human's food.
Marisa argued, she's doing it for the clan. She's going to take the vegetables and share it together with the clan. Human can just eat poo poo.
The clan is unamused. Marisa is not doing this for the clan anyway. Marisa want to eat the vegetables herself and the other clan members are just a mean to get it. Marisa want to be seen as a hero by the clan.
Well, she can go there alone because the clan is not going with her.Dosu is with the clan, she's not going to human's farm.
For yukkuri, Dosu's existence is like a living god to human. A manifestation of perfection they can never have. Asking help from Dosu is like human praying to god.
But now, Dosu is not helping. Instead Dosu say she's weak and unable to win against human.What lie is this ? Marisa thought.
But it's true. Dosu don't have any reason to lie that she's weaker. If anything, saying she's weak is only humiliating herself. But it's the truth.Feeling betrayed, Marisa go back to her home and bring her family to take back vegetables from human. After defeating human, she will return to defeat the weak and coward Dosu then become the clan's leader.
Her wife is worried, because like other clan members, she's been educated strictly by the adults to fear human and understand that vegetables don't grow on their own.
But Marisa's children still have the yukkuri's instinct and desire. Then, seeing how confident Marisa is, Reimu came along.As expected though, Marisa got kicked away by the man and he quickly crushed Reimu, and their KoReimu and KoMarisa. He's no abyuser, so he just want to kill these stupid yukkuri as quickly as he can and continue with the farming job.
He also want to crush Marisa quickly, but seems like an adult wild Marisa is sturdier so he need more force. All the while, he talk to Marisa about the mountain clan.
It's the clan's rule to not enter human's farm. Those who do will be killed. Marisa barely remember this from her childhood. Her parents and the teacher Patchouli told her this, but she doesn't care.Marisa tried threatening human that Dosu won't stay quiet when a clan member is killed. The man then told Marisa, she's no longer member of the clan. The moment she leave the mountain to human's farm, she's already out of the clan and neither the clan nor Dosu will help her even if she managed to go back.
But Marisa is also a living creature!
Well, true. The man consider yukkuri as living creature and he personally don't enjoy killing them. But yukkuri are difficult to teach. They will quickly forget about uneasy things so it doesn't matter how much they're taught and hurt, they will return with comprehension that's convenient to them only. That's why killing these irregulars is the best way.
Dosu's clan is smart, but every once in a while, idiots like this one will show up.Yukkuri in the mountain, Human on the hill. Everyone don't other each others and everyone can be happy. That's the rule set between human and the yukkuri clan.
Marisa is crushed.
A Reimu from the village came, entrusted with the task to retrieve Marisa's family's accessories. The man has prepared a plastic bag and give them to Reimu.
In the clan, once again Dosu told the clan to never approach the farm. They will take it easy forever just like that uneasy family. The statement is strengthened by the death stench from Marisa's family's accessories.
Younger KoYukkuri vomitted their paste, so Dosu allowed using the emergency sweets sweets supply to heal them.
Meanwhile, Dosu and the council members go to throw away the accessories out of the clan's area.
One of the clan member Marisa had a suspicion, why should the whole council follow just to throw away scum's accessories ? But she doesn't think of it further.
Away from the clan, council member Myon buried the accessories among other graves. Meanwhile Dosu stay silent.
After ensuring nobody is nearby, Dosu starts crying.For yukkuri, the knowledge ingrained in their paste core is right. That's the rule of the world. It doesn't matter if it's true or not, that's the world for yukkuri.
Human say they're hallucinating, but for yukkuri it's serious thing.Dosu knows she can't defeat human. As a clan leader, she has to let everyone take it easy. That's why she has to "lie" to the clan that vegetables don't grow on their own. Ever since the clan members are young, she and the council members continue teaching and suppresing that ancestral knowledge before it grows. This way the clan member can take it easy in that lie.
Marisa is right, Dosu and the other clan members are wrong. That's what Dosu believed.
Sometimes, yukkuri like Marisa came out. They're the truly easy yukkuri who doesn't let go of their treasure, their truth, even if they're made to take it easy forever by human. Dosu respected them very much.
The clan members call this place the graveyard for scums, but Dosu and the council members call it this among themselves, hero yun's graveyard.
