A note on current trends in voting - sending the clones to get Remilia is not subtle, and does not result in a long time for talking before she gets there.
 
[X] Make Sanae explain what she means
-[X] Tell Sanae that Ilya is our friend and that she should refrain from insulting her.
-[X] Explain in turn that Illya is in fact from the outside world and is currently in the Mansion to get the help she needs.
--[X] Since Illya is our guest it would be greatly appreciated if she didn't upset her further otherwise she will have to face the consequences for being disruptive.


Barrier Jackets are designed for at least high altitude flight, see Nanoha Season 1, where Nanoha did the Gundam style orbital insertion in one. I'm not sure how that deals with outright space but it should offer protection from the oxygen level, temperature, and the pressure of high altitude.

Theoretically, With Flandres increased resistance, she could be capable of reaching an even higher altitude, Shown when we flew way above Japan in the second homecoming of PMMM as a threat.

Getting Sanae to talk about stuff that she already blurted into Illyas face prevents her from yelling around more and possibly goading Reimu into incident resolving mode before everything can be explained. Remi will porbably show up before we can get through the entire explanation which means she can help there.
There are no absolutely terrible outcomes here anyway and even if it devolves into a full on incident danmakufest the only thing that can be lost is reputation, which admittedly is somewhat bad for Remi but something that can be recovered.
Unless i completely misread something and this Gensokyo is considerably more grimdark than i am thinking.

...

So you want Sanae to explain in front of Illya that she's a fictional character on her side of reality.

And possibly giving more issues to Illya is not a problem to you?

I don't believe that's an issue, considering that most of the denizens of Gensokyo are fictional on some level.
The problem here is that Sanae is being rude and invading her personal space, not the terrible shock of being fictional in a place she's never been to.
 
That's an invalid argument. Who care about the others? This is about -Illya- right now.
Illya already knows about other realities and that there are parallels of her, i seriously doubt that she will go into some kind of depression over that revelation.
Honestly i could see her being kind of interested in the whole thing after the initial weirdness is over and someone isn't trying to blow it up into an incident.

Initial reaction say otherwise.

Also, you're mixing up possibly knowing in your head and actually experiencing said scenario.

Edit: Furthermore...
"we can go back to the shrine and get you back home to your parents."
Sanae is being a goddamn idiot and assuming way too much about someone she only think she know about. Letting her speak more does NOT sound like a good idea to me.

I admit it might backfire but having Sanae talking to Flan about what she thinks is going on is still better than her trying to convince Illya on the basis of faulty knowledge. Basically shift her focus from Illya to Flan.
Outright shutting her up would seem like an confirmation of guilt to most listeners, while just sending for Remi without at least trying to defend herself doesn't seem like a thing Flan would do.

Maybe taking out the line about making her explain? like so?

[] Send your clones to get Remilia.
-[] Tell Sanae that Ilya is our friend and that she should refrain from insulting her.
-[] Explain in turn that Illya is in fact from the outside world and is currently in the Mansion to get the help she needs.
--[] Since Illya is our guest it would be greatly appreciated if she didn't upset her further otherwise she will have to face the consequences for being disruptive.
 
Interrupting Sanae about these things before she could say even more things that may or may not hurt our cover is the best option. If we put a bit of pressure on her and show that we are angry, she'll stop talking and then when Remilia gets here, she won't just keep blabbering on while we wait.

Because, as the GM said:

A note on current trends in voting - sending the clones to get Remilia is not subtle, and does not result in a long time for talking before she gets there.

That could be anywhere from 5-30 minutes, in my case. Making her shut up until she gets here sounds like a better idea to me.

Not only that, but if we show that we care for our friend, and that we are actually friends with her, And that we are angry if anyone else insults her, Everyone else except Yukari, Yuuka, and Reimu would back off.

Why? Because if people notice that Ilya is from a 'video game' we are going to have a lot of questions coming our way, not to mention from the Tengu 'Sisters', Reimu, Maybe Marisa, and some other kingpins.

It's better to show that we could and will defend her rather than just letting someone else take care of it. It might make Sanae get some crazier ideas like "Oh, you can't explain, so you're going to get Remilia to make up a story, right?"

We, on the other hand, Don't have a reputation for telling lies and stories. When we are angry and tell someone something, they usually shut up and listen, and they automatically think we are telling the truth because we don't have a creative imagination. Well, to everyone else we don't.

Because, Remember, Everyone is watching.

Actually, just to point out, If we bring Remilia here, Expect Yukari to follow. She was last seen with her, and if Remilia is pissed off, expect a lecture afterward, because if her conversation was really that annoying, bad things will happen.

...How to you read 'not a long time' into 5-30 minutes? More like within a minute or two to me.

Regardless, issue with this: Flandre, when angry, doesn't tend to do diplomacy well. Getting Remilia is more 'Get the more diplomatic person in before I do somethign myself' to me.

And the whole problem there is the batman quote. Her parents are dead.

Not being fictional in the reality of some dumbass miko.
Still doesn't make it a good idea to let Sanae rant further.

When dealing with Yukari, Everything turns into 5-30 minutes.

Getting Remilia would just Fuel Sanae's imagination more. It's not a good idea.

Flan has a reputation for being (slightly) crazy and - among the more historical-minded and/or long-lived types - really good at killing lots of youkai in a short period of time. Happily. Amongst most of the population of Gensokyo, that's it, because she doesn't get out much and is hardly ever seen. Now, people would shut up and listen if she started talking while being angry, but that has as much to do with the reason that most people shut up and listen when a group of people with automatic weapons and a demonstrated proficiency with them show up angry and start talking as it does with any sort of belief that she's telling the truth.

The angry part is why we start ranting about how Illya is our friend and guest and who Sanae thinks she is for making such a scene, it tides over the time before Remi gets here in a way that doesn't involve danmaku duels or angry silence enforced by the thread of Flan flying off the handle.
And the is no way Flan would stay silent in the face of those accusations, best to channel that anger into something that doesn't involve starting duels or breaking things.
 
Aren't we supposed to not know who Illya is personally and wouldn't appearing to be SUPER close to her imply that her cover story isn't what it really is?

If we're going to talk loudly at Sanae, at least make the argument that she's coming up and accusing the House of Scarlet of being so crass as to have kidnapped a guest and a friend of the family who is desperately in need of medical aid that we were requested to provide. It's a matter of honor, hospitality and noblesse oblige, and she's being extremely rude in making such crass and baseless accusations.

Changed my vote to this to basically get Sanae to either shut up or focus on Flan until Remi arrives to do the social thing.
Its a lot simpler and less wordy, which i think is generally better.
