You are a Magical Girl, you've spent the better part of four hours listening to your former partner talk about the parts of your life that you've forgotten about entirely.

Well, no, not forgotten entirely. You remember some bits - some really tiny, specific ones that seemed so out of context that at first you'd thought they were something you dreamed about and dismissed them as nothing more than visions brought about by bad hangovers.

It is a rather strange experience, though. To hear about yourself, doing things. Killing.

You remember...something happening, in an office building, somewhere, that had made you so angry that you saw the entire world blur gently around you, losing all color, while ice mercury seemed to slowly fill your veins, coursing through a heart that beat just a little too slowly, a little too calmly.

You remember Kyoko, still with both her eyes, cheerfully visiting you everyday in the Silent Room, during your isolation from the rest of the Officio, despite getting into a heated argument with Sayaka each time she did. She always brought Pocky, and fed you herself while you hung from the cold, freezing chains.

And you remember the first time Mami made pancakes for you.

No one forgets their first time. Especially not something as magical as that.

themostexcitingtimeoftheday.jpg
>>
It is currently night time, in Siberia. You and your former partner, Valnikov Kharn, are currently eating bear steak under an impressively-clear night sky, in the front courtyard of the Officio's heavily-fortified and heavily-guarded Research and Development base. Your subordinate is currently sleeping off her injuries in your room, and your arms dealer is probably doing the same, with the two Petes keeping her company.

Kharn had just finished recounting her first encounter of you, and the events that brought it about. It's...certainly been informative. The killing spree wasn't so surprising - you'd have done it regardless of how many there were, or what consequences would befall you if you did. No one gets to talk about Tomoe Mami like that and live to see the next sunrise.

Learning about Malal, well, it's slightly disconcerting. Sure, you could see yourself hanging out with someone like her, even if you sounded completely like the murderous autist. But even as Kharn described her, described how the both of you seemed to get along reasonably well - nothing comes up in your mind about her. Try as you might, you are unable to remember how her voice sounded as she taught you what drink to order in a wet bar if you're not in a hurry to get wasted. You cannot, for the life of you, even recall a single thing about the Culexus that seemed like quite the capable aide to a Warmaster like Kharn. A capable aide, and a good friend, one that you probably would find handy watching your back.

How? How could you just forget someone like that?

You are still asking yourself that question when Kharn finally seemed to take notice of your silence. The grill in front of you is now empty of steaks, the coals smoldering as they are left to cool.

[1/2]
>>
>>20999534

Kharn's soldiers had lined up earlier beside the grill to get their share - and it was interesting, at least, to watch your former partner attend to her grizzled, hardened lot, like a doting, large-chested older sister would to her younger brothers.

And the soldiers seemed to behave as such, loudly and raucously joking and laughing with their comrades, but turning bashful, almost shy, when it came for Kharn to fill their plates. She greeted them all by name, in the middle of attending to the grill and telling you her tales. She had started telling you about how she had gladly led you and Malal into the Third Warmaster's trap when the line had finally dwindled to nothing.

"Murderface?" Your former partner asks you from her own folding chair, a plate of chili sauce-soaked bear steak on her lap, her black armored legs crossed demurely on top of each other. You turn slightly to acknowledge her, and you watch as she spears a slice of the bear steak with her fork - the utensil wielded delicately and mesmerizingly by brutal claws.

Briefly, you wonder how it would feel like having your heart torn out with those things.

"Comrade Murderface, are you still alive?" Kharn asks again, brow furrowing as she brandishes the loaded fork at you. "You have been much too quiet, even after I have finished telling you my tale. Are you in awe of my storytelling skills, or did you fall asleep?" A chuckle. "Or...is it that you have a question for me? I am sure you have, by that look on your face. You are free to ask anything you wish."

[2/3]
>>
>>20999547

You glance down at your own plate of bear steak - the meat is surprisingly tender, and whatever Kharn had done to the meat, it's countenanced the rather cloying sweetness of it. You take another bite, chewing slowly as you consider how to respond. Kharn's no Mami when it comes to cooking, but it's certainly palatable.

You wash down the morsel of roasted predator with a swig of cold vodka, the bottle open and placed on the ice-packed cement beside your own chair.

How do you respond? What do you ask?
>>
>>20999555
"Malal."

Let her decide what we're asking and what she answers.

"And the axes now?"
I'd really rather not have to kill Kharn and Mami for their Golden Weapons.

Yeah, so far three things I want to ask about.
1: Malal.
2: Pinky.
3: The axes.

"You could have glossed over on how you managed to beat Ahriman, you could have left out the part where you were talking to someone only you could see. Why did you keep those in?"
>>
>>20999555
I want to ask her if she ever told anyone else about Pinky, but the more in-character question would be
"Why? Why am I still here, while Malal is gone? Why do I deserve to live, while someone like that, someone who had their arms ripped out protecting me, doesn't?
And why the fuck can't I remember?"
>>
>>20999555

>spend the last 10 minutes staring at your twitter and eating cashew nuts

we need to know more about Malal and the part where she got the axes.
>>
Ask her about the girl with the pink hair and her own golden weapons
>>
>>20999620
That's not really in character though.
>>
Learning more about Malal seems prudent over Pinky and the axes but if it's possible to ask in sequence, that'd be awesome.

Having absolutely no memory of her seems strange. Either Kharn made her up or maybe she was erased from existance with only Kharn remembering her. Maybe Malal's own anti-magic properties backfired and snuffed her out.
>>
>>20999651
Or maybe booze and painkillers.
>>
>>20999555

"You tried to boink Mami? I'm not sure how I feel about this."

"Where are the axes now? Have you ever seen that pink-haired girl again?

Malal first, we might find something that jogs our memory

Then why she explained it all so vividly, surely there were things she could have glossed over like talking to pinky as a painting and getting the golden axes. After all people with those weapons seem to end up fighting each other

>>20999694

I have a few more ideas lying around, just waiting for time to edit them.

>>20999703
She might have glossed over her... Conquests maybe

Every fucking thread.
>>
>>20999714
Nah Kharn doesn't hide her accomplishments so even if we had asked she wouldn't have stopped
>>
>>20999712
Neat.

Also, ask first about Malal (is she live or dead, has she thoughts wihtin her head), and then about Pinky, and the golden weapons.
>>
um.....

>That's...as close as you'll get to seeing an assignment being reported. No one can make something like that disappear like Kyuubey - for all you know he sent his Culexus squad to wipe a few minds clean of what they saw that night, the poor bastards. You've heard that some of them actually have enough mastery over their abilities that they can affect human minds, too, not just Magical Girls.

It seems like Culexus can effect minds with their null power. So, whatever scrubbed our minds is centred around Malal so it is likely she is doing it.

Why?

Well If I were to take a guess, I suppose the original Homura is sending instructions to Malal about what to do with her 'native' copy every-time she rewinds tim. In the last cycle Murderface didn't go with the plan and tried to face pinky by herself. Homura decided to try to expunge the Murderface persona from her 'native' copy by erasing memories of the time spent with Kharn.

Malal is dead. Kharn told us.

I think we gave Malai a painless death.

"Malal?" Kharn echoes as she leans back on her seat, clawed hand reaching out towards the vodka bottle in your hand. Wordlessly, you pass it to her, and she takes a long, healthy pull from it, her breath misting in the cold winter air as she exhales.

"I was hoping talking about her would jog your memory some, at least, but I suppose we must take it one day at a time, yes?" Your former partner smiles as she hands the bottle back. Your fingers briefly brushing against her fleshmetal claws as you take it from her.

"Well, what is there to know about Malal?" Kharn shrugs, although her voice changes the slightest bit. "She was my best friend, and I would like to think she was yours, too. You certainly got along well enough. She was a very good aide, as I am sure you have inferred. Consider that your first lesson, Murderface, on Warmastering."

Kharn points at you with her fork. "A Warmaster is nothing without her aide. She does everything else so you can focus on being a Warmaster. She carries your standard, she handles all annoying paperwork and logistics - and if she is good enough, she can make you look like a hero even if you are...well, us." The russian Magical Girl laughs, a coarse sound. "So make sure to pick yours with care."

A cough. "There are more things that need to be said about Malal, but let us leave that for another day. I have read that those with amnesia, they should not be rushed into remembering, yes? But there is time, a lot of time to tell. Do not worry." She nods to herself. "Yes. Everything is under control."

A moment more, and she considers your question. "Ah, about...Pinky, is that what you call her? She has many names. Faust is the name she gave me, so that is what I told Kyuubey. Erebus and Ahriman, they call her the Blessed Lady."

[1/2]
>>
>>20999976

yay someone brought that up!
Something tells me that the whole series was inspired by that wordplay.

The things Japanese get up to....
>>
>>20999981

Kharn glances towards you. "Some say she is a delusion of Magical Girls becoming sick, Kyuubey maintains that she is a Witch that has transcended beyond what we normally encounter. That she has become a god, or something."


She laughs, again. "I am finding it hard to believe, even now. But what do you call someone like her? A monster? Or perhaps, the Devil herself?"

A moment of silence, before your former partner speaks once more. "I told you about her because I feel that you should know. Looking at you, Murderface...you have met her, already, and multiple times. Beware of her and her honeyed words, and her gifts. And speaking of her gifts, Gorechild and Gorefather are in the vault, along with your other toys. They have been there ever since I came here."

You take another swig from the vodka bottle. Belatedly, you realize that you've basically traded indirect kisses with your former partner and Warmaster, but you're not too concerned about that at the moment.

How do you respond?
>>
>>20999928
y not

>>20999931
Well, in the original series, they all can fly to begin with, but not in this canon apparently. As for the wish, "I wish I could fly", for one, or "I wish I was free...

But they don't necessarily need to be air fighters, or even to fly. I was just thinking that adapting the characters of SW to Megucanon could be fun.

>>20999989

Too be fair, the tenth is only trying to get back Midori, who defected from him. Trying to keep employees in line is fairly reasonable, not that we're giving Midori back.
>>
>>21000044

That is something that is worrying. Either Jyuubey has some way of tracking Midori despite her contract/wish being overwritten, or he already had Mirai in the area for a separate mission when we confronted her. Using the whole Midori incident could merely be a cover-up for whatever Mirai was really doing in the middle of nowhere.

This is ignoring the probable fact that all the Incubators are working toward a common goal, and these squabbles mean less than nothing to them in the end.
>>

You know, I've thought about that for a while.

True. As >>21000077 posted, trying to get Midori back could just be a cover like trying to get revenge for the 3 squads of girls Murderface killed.
Gorefather and Gorechild were stored here as soon as Kharn was sent here, so Mirai could have been trying to break in and grab the Golden Weapons under orders from yet another Gold Weapon wielding Warmaster. Or the 10th Incubator has a scheme of his own.
We need Kharn to tell us what happened to the 3rd Incubator, if anyone managed to tie his involvement to Ahriman's actions.

i guess Malal's death and Kharn being sent off to siberia are related, with us being the horrible cause?
we will get to find out at a later date.

i suggest that if we survive this corruption treatment and after we become a full warmaster that we could try to make Siberia a little bit more comfortable for the people stationed there.
even Souji, he has been an ass to us ever since we got here but at least he is honest about it.

>>21000134

Or Mariai could be scouting out for a Pleiades Saint raid. And now that we have captured Marai plans to attack the facility could be accelerated in hopes to get the saint back.

I got an idea.
Misaka is going to be upset that she missed the opportunity to hunt bears using Tiny Pete and thanks to us there are not going to be any bears around here for a while (if ever).

We could tell her that we think the base might be attacked and she should prep Tiny Pete for base defence. It doesn't matter if we are right nor not, it will give her something to do for the month we are out.

>>21000150
>>21000134

I actually think that Wakaba Mirai could still be useful to us. From the Mangos and from what Midori told us about them the Saints are pretty close.
So there will be more of them after us after we supposedly killed Mirai. That`s way we should keep her gem and not destroy it, simply as a bargaining chip if more of them should show up.

Other than that, we were pretty lucky that only one of the Saints showed up, since their strenght is pretty much based on their coordinated Group-Attacks.

Anyway, without Timestop Murderface is pretty much fucked should two or more Saints show up after Mirai.

I have a sort of desire to see the katawa shoujo girls as meguca now

Just since we had the references to it in thread and the katawa yandere threads makes me think it would fit perfectly

Rin as a callidus
Lily as an eversor
Hanako as a culexus
Emi as an eversor
Shizune as a vindicare

What would misha be?

"Ah, yes. The Third Incubator." It's here that Kharn seems to frown as she carves another slice from what remains of her own steak - spearing it with her fork but pushing it around her plate, seemingly contemplative. "I was there in Kyuubey's Office, a day after we killed his Warmaster. You were not there, you were still recovering, along with Malal. In retrospect, that in itself is a good thing, I suppose..." She lifts the loaded fork to her mouth and chews delicately. "You would have seen me in a very angry mood."

As soon as she finishes chewing, it's then that your former partner tells you about how Kyuubey had asked her to witness the call he made to his brother. What showed up on the massive screens in front of you was...well, someone similar to Kyuubey, in all respects, except this one had blue eyes rather than crimson.

The meeting began cordially enough, both Incubators greeting each other and talking about the weather, the economy, and how their businesses were faring. Kharn had noted here that Kyuubey seemed particularly boastful about QB Heavy Industries' recent acquisitions, while Sanbey seemed to be rather eager about business process outsourcing. It was like listening to two businessmen do lunch; dry, boring, and completely obsessed about the bottom line.

It's only after a few minutes that Kyuubey then breached the subject of the entire incident, the events that lead up to you, Kharn and Malal killing off his Warmaster and her retinue. A hundred Magical girls, not counting the ones you yourself slaughtered.

"He simply shrugged, Murderface." Kharn says, taking another swig from the vodka bottle the both of you have been doing your best to kill.

"Shrugged and said that he had no idea what Ahriman had done, or what had transpired. He said that he could not have cared less about his Magical Girl division; he had declared them already an autonomous section of his organization, free to do what they wanted. He had no knowledge that the previous Warmaster had been killed by Ahriman, or that Ahriman had declared herself Warmaster. He was much too busy organizing...the business side of his Officio. All he cared about was new contracts, new business, and that the girls would deposit grief seeds as necessary."

As she went on, Kharn describes to you how Kyuubey seemed unsurprised at this, and took his brother's explanation well enough. He did, however, posit that if Sanbey didn't need the other girls, then what if Kyuubey took them off his hands?

"You should have seen that damn Incubator's eyes light up when Kyuubey suggested that." Kharn spits out a piece of bear bone, wincing. "Couldn't have said yes fast enough. He said that he was getting annoyed at them, at how they seemed to always look for his approval at everything, even after their wishes. The mere smell alone of a Magical Girl sickened him."

And with that, the Ninth Officio gained eight hundred or so new recruits, all of their contracts transferred to Kyuubey's. SANY was also integrated into the company soon after. The agreement was Sanbey would stop contracting girls, but instead get a fraction of the spent Grief Seeds that Kyuubey also got.

"I was expecting a bloody war, a full mobilization," Kharn sighs, clearly wistful. "It would have been fun, you know? Tearing up Mitakihara in a proper war. It would have been glorious, I think. But Incubators are so annoyingly reasonable and businesslike, sometimes I am thinking that they have stopped being aliens and became something worse!"

[2/3]
>>
>>21000464

It's certainly a strange way to end a bloody confrontation like that, but at the same time, you can't help but think of it as logical, especially when the Incubators are concerned.

You take another swig of vodka, closing your eyes as the warmth of the drink settles nicely in your belly.

"Hnn, by the way. I am sure you have more questions to ask, Murderface." Kharn suddenly speaks up. "But if you are wanting to call home, then tell me. Unfortunately, smartphone reception here is not very good, so we have to use other means." She grins at you, clearly teasing. "I am sure there are many back home that want to hear your voice again, even if it had just been a few days."

Sounds more or less appropriate for aliens that just don't really care. Seems odd that QB seems to put more care and thought than his brethren into what he's doing as far as his MG operations go.

I suppose we should do this. I doubt that kharn is going to tell us much more at this point.
Call Mami first and ask her about Iori. If Iori has become 'magical Iori' it wont be a shock to us when we are taking to her.

Then hang up on him and call Mami, and tell her we might be out for a few months, and ask her to tell Sayaka and Kyoko. Also ask her if bringing them both on as our aides seems like a good idea. Who was her aide, anyway?
And then call Iori and apologise for being a bitch, and tell her about the procedure.

But what's an emotionless alien going to do with a business on Earth? They're purely logic beings to the point of sociopathy, but what would he gain from running businesses?
It doesn't really seem like they need to eat (aside from disposing of dead incubators) or would otherwise need money, let alone Earth money. My only guess in the desire for power, but they pretty much have that in controlling magical girls.
>>
>>21000520
Mami probably didn't have one since she never got to full warmaster

I think that between them they would make one normal aide but getting Mami would be better

She isn't going to potentially become a MG because we were a bitch to her. She's going to potentially become a MG because she obsesses over Chiaki and she either wants approval and/or to get her attention. It's best if we let things lie, or ask Mami for advice on how to handle this.

>>21000591

This isn't a problem that we have, at this point, since we've basically pushed her away and into the waiting arms of garcia.

"Kharn, do I know someone named Kaname Madoka? That name is on my phone and I don't know where it came from. "

You know we never checked to make sure that worked. There's absolutely no indication that things have worked out as you think they have; in fact, things could have gotten far worse.

>>21000613
Fabiola still owes us a favor for taking out Lance Kilgore. I say we get her to set up Iori and Garcia together. We can apologize to Iori once we've returned, when the two of have made some progress as a couple, so she won't fall back in love with us.
>>
>>21000573
Iori and her potential to make a stupid contract should be treated delicately. We should seek to defuse the situation and probably distance ourselves from her. That said, making her despair and then disappearing for a long period of time would set her up for making a wish like Matsuda would love her or something.
Getting her stabilized with Gracia seems like the safest course of action, it keeps her happy and away from Kyubei and it gets her out of our life.

This assumes that she even likes Garcia. Sure, he's in love with the idol-Iori, but will he feel the same about the real Iori?

Or in giving her the cold shoulder we push her to contract so that we notice her

We need to walk a fine line between telling her to piss off and getting her to stay friendly

Remember the whole issue with her came because we were the only person she felt she could trust and we had people wanting to waifu her, wanting to keep her close to avoid her going meguca and witching or going meguca and bad ending us so if we do just drop her like a sack of bricks it will have repercussions

I acutally think that we should make pretty clear to her that we don`t want her in our live and that she should not get involved with us nor Magical Girls in general. The best would be for her to forget everything she saw and try to live a normal life.

This is the best course of action of course there is always the chance that she will act like the retarded brat that she is, but at least that isn`t our fault then because we tried to keep her away from all of this.
>>
>>21000760

It amuses me that there are people simultaneously arguing that we should keep Midori, our slightly obsessive fangirl at a distance, because being a huge fan isn't a sound basis for wanting to be in a relationship, while attempting to hook up Iori with Garcia, her slightly obsessive fanboy.
>>
>>21000760
They seemed to be getting along just fine from what we've seen. Besides, she was all over Chiaki despite her being, you know, her, only because she needed someone to latch onto to avoid drowning. A young gentleman who can treat her right seems like the perfect match for Minase, especially after all the heartache we caused her.

Also, Mami thinks it's the right thing to do.
>>
>>21000776
We need to friendzone her. We should stay civil and polite, but we really do need to make it clear that we have no plans to reciprocate her feelings. Like you said, dumping her is just going to make things worse, but if we start coddling her again then it will just go back to step 1 and we'll always be worrying about her contracting or getting killed.

Unfortunately, I do not think Chiaki possesses the social skills required to do this, so we're fucked. If we do it through a middleman then it won't have the same effect.
>>
>>21000808

No. That is a fucking stupid idea.

That way leads despair, and despair way leads Meguca. We provide such support and friendship, FRIENDSHIP, NOT FUCKIN', as is required. We do not cut her off. That will result in her doing stupid, stupid shit.
>>
>>21000815
She gets along fine with him but that doesn't mean she will hook up with him

There is a difference between liking someone and loving someone
>>
>>21000810
I think it's more like Midori's already a magical girl and thus is already a lost cause while Iori is a mundane human with a future. Garcia is just the means to friendzone Iori.
>>
>>21000772
>>21000751

Some talking points for Midori that were brought up in the previous threads, assuming that we have to do the one-month treatment:

>Hardcore introspection and soul searching to decide whether she is in love with her notion of Murder Mayumi or not.

>Flesh of Fallen Angels thing and Pinky's special attentions. Jealous goddess with malevolent yet loving feelings = bad news.

>Golden Weapons for dummies.
>>
>>21000815

Mami also thought encouraging Iori's crush on us, and warning Kirika of her impending retirement were the right things to do.

I'm jus' sayin', she does not have the best track record here.
>>
>>21000822
Friend zoning her would be effective but trying to see murderface doing it would be hilarious.
>>
>>21000841
By the numbers she has had more good ideas than bad ideas

The problem is Mami will always go for the everyone ends up happy option which doesn't always work
>>
>>21000810
It amuses you because you are an idiot.

If Chiaki ever gets close to someone it should, in fact, be a Magical Girl. One that knows about all the stuff that comes with it, thats why from simply practical point of view Midori is a better choice.
What amuses me is that you are to stupid to either see the difference between them and to spot the difference between a crush and an obsession.

Then again, I`m on /tg/ and I don`t really expect a person to know how girls work..
>>
>>21000808
>Its still better then doting on her and sending her the wrong signals.
So give her the Full Murderface Experience, just like we did with Midori, and see if she stays or not.

>>21000815
>>21000822
>>21000826
May I point out something that I had forgotten about but remembered when I went back through the archives; Iori can already see QB without a Contract. He actually made mention of it being odd, back when we retired Kirika. Maybe Iori is closer to contracting that we thought.

I`m really sorry, that you can`t into relationships, anon, but cutting her off, at least for now and hope she will get over us is the right thing to do. After some time - not two days, mind you - if she seems to be doing alright, THEN we can try to be friends.

But Midori is a magical girl, she can handle herself in dire situations, as shown earlier when she held onto Chiaki as she went black eyed. Iori is a normal girl, who has gone through some hardships recently. She does not have the means of coping with the 'Murderface Experience'. We can keep her friendly at a distance, but subjecting her to more trauma just to see if she could handle it is not a good thing to do. What if she does stay? It'll just make things worse, we'll be saddled with a clingy idol who can't protect herself.
>>
>>21000914
I don't know, why are your friends social lepers who can't take no for an answer?
>>
>>21000841
She realized those were mistakes and approved of Chiaki distancing herself from Minase after that. She's not perfect but that doesn't mean we should dismiss everything she says either. she's still a much better people person that we are.

>>21000834
Basically, this. We support Iori as a friend, and nothing more.
>>
Gentlemen, let us not discuss how to deal with Iori. She's a can of worms that has been unfortunately opened. And by who, do you ask?

By none other than Mami Tomoe, vindicare and secretary of the Ninth that tries to help others with good intentions and always backfiring.

Gentlemen, how do we eliminate Mami?

"Heh. Yes, that is what I thought you would say." Kharn says as she slips out of her folding chair, in a movement that is almost unnatural in its smoothness and grace. "It is only prudent, of course, to tell them that you have arrived and are safe and sound. You do not want them to worry." It's then that she claps her brutally-clawed hands, the sharp impact of metal upon metal cracking across the courtyard. "Sergei! Nikolai! Please clean up after us, yes? The Warmaster has important business to attend to!"

The soldiers that had gathered around a bonfire at the other end of the courtyard cheer at this, and Kharn smiles before placing her plate on her vacated chair. You clamber out of your own chair yourself, if a bit clumsily - for a folding affair, it was comfortable and getting a bit hard to get out of, but certainly nothing close to the lovingly-upholstered piece of heaven you've left back home.

You let out a small groan as you manage to get back at your feet, both new and old pains and aches flaring up, reminding you of just how close you've come to death today. You make a small note to get some painkillers inside of you later. You leave your own plate where Kharn had left hers, while taking the half-empty bottle of vodka with you.

The journey to the 'Communications Room' as Kharn had introduced it is a short one; it seems to be in a floor between the surface and the subterranean living quarters of the R&D base. It is a rather...antiquated room, full of bulky machinery that seems to be hooked up to each other, and there's a slight static buzz in the air that makes your teeth itch as Kharn flicks a couple of switches on.

[1/2]
>>
>>21001248

In the center of a room is a rather comfortable-looking chair facing a large, towering screen. You recognize it immediately as one similar to Kyuubey's personal chair at the Officio. It's only after a few moments that you finally realize that this was to be the Incubator's own control hub, for the off-chance that he would actually visit. The fact that the chair itself had rather archaic-looking keyboards built into its armrests seemed to support your idea.

You ask Kharn if your suspicions are true, and she makes a pleased, impressed grunt.

"Ah, you are very observant, yes? You are correct, this was formerly made to accommodate the Incubator in the times when he would visit. Unfortunately, or fortunately, he has never visited for too long, usually it is just an ocular inspection. Besides, him and Souji regularly converse on his laptop." Kharn mimes typing on an invisible with both clawed hands, a curiously amusing gesture. "Sometimes, they get into arguments, but mostly about stupid things."

"In any case, communication console is already switched on. Take seat there." Kharn gently ushers you onto the commanding leather chair. "On right armrest is letter keypad, on left is numbers. Just input the number you want, and press send. Call will automatically connect. Could be whoever you want, really." It's then that Kharn giggles. "Ah, I remember pranking Totally Awesome Sweet Alabama Liquid Snake with this one. She manages a bar in her spare time, in America, you see. Prank calls are something she hates."

You nod. That seems easy enough. And pranking? That's surprising. You'd never have taken Kharn to be the sort to do that.

"Is harmless fun." Kharn shrugs, still grinning. "It gets boring here sometimes."
>>
>>21001253

You glance towards the towering black screen in front of you, before looking down at the numerical keypad, your fingers poised over the keys.

After checking in with Mami, we really should call QB and let him know that one of the 10th's MG's was snooping around the R&D base.
He's already identified the Tenth as a rogue Incubator, one who may not be playing by the rules the Incubators set up for themselves, and is trying to hunt him down.
This might light a fire under that mutant cat's ass to put more resources into finding Jyuubei and removing him permanently.

We need to get that hat for her. We must ask Kharn where we can get one.
>>
>>21001257
Mami first
Ask her to see about her, Kyouko and Sayaka working for us as aides / secretary / enforcers and check on how Iori is

We will call her ourself to say we might be out for a month and to spend some time with Mami since she does worry about her

Then call Kyouko and tell her we might be out for a month, she will pass it on to Sayaka and we avoid talking to her

Finally call coobie and call him a lying asshole then hang up

[X] Tomoe Mami

Let's do this one.

We should probably also ask her if she KNEW that people had been making porn of us.

Because that is slightly distressing.
>>
>>21001257

>time zone antics?

i believe we should personally inform our tiny tiny circle of friends and Kyuubey that we will be staying in Siberia for an extended time, but having Mami announce it to the rest is the next best thing.

we should try to call them all up at least once, not to sure about Iori at this time because i know fuck all about how to handle this.

i am all for calling QB a lying asshole but he will just wave it off with that perfect alien logic...

Sayaka doesn't deserve a call from us. She only get a good bye if she is in the same room as Kyouko

[x] Kyuubey. He knew about the golden weapons before we came along. He's a bitch, we should tell him that.
[x] Mami. As one of the few people who care about us she should know that we're safe.
[x] Kyoko. We just gained +1 bro. We should probably catch up with her. And Sayaka will probably be with her, so two birds with one stone?
[x] Iori. Bad End prevention begin. Seriously she's going to make a contract then become a witch and kill us. That is a bad thing.

What lie did QB tell?
He might have known about the Golden Weapons, but it's not like he said he'd never seen them before. What lie exactly did he tell?
>>
>>21001364
Why not? How is not talking to her going to help?
>>
>>21001422
Wouldn't it be better to phone Mami before Iori so we can see ask how Iori is before we just phone her? We left on a pretty sour note so it would be good to know what to expect.
>>
>>21001422
Actually, I'd rather get Mami's take on Iori's status first to determine if we should talk with her now or not.
>>
>>21001257
>[x]Tomoe Mami

If there's anyone we can call to get a feel on the situation on the home front, it would be her.

Prepare for disappointment and/or chewing out followed by a bout of Chiaki explaining an extremely improbable (yet completely true) sequence of events if she's got Iori's side of the story, though.
>>
>>21001426
Plus, he knowingly sent us here to talk to someone he knew encountered them. I doubt he was being particularly malicious or hiding anything we wouldn't have found out at his choice.
>>
>>21001439
>>21001441

heh, that's what I have been saying.
If the worst has happened, and Iori has become magical Iori at least it won't take us by surprise when we talk to her.
>>
>>21001428

We can just have Mami or somebody pass on the message that we're staying in Siberia for a while and have them make sure she doesn't contract.
>>
>>21001426
It was more a lie of omission.

>Here QB look at these weird golden weapons, do you know what they are?
>AH well, I will definitely have to look into this.
>I think they drive anyone who uses them insane.
>Well why don't you carry one around and see how it works out for you.

A lie of omission is still a lie.
>>
>>21001441
That... is a good point. We should switch the order of those last two.

I hope we have time today for three phone calls...

>>21001462
"You never asked."
>>
>>21001452
That wouldn't be as effective as saying it to her ourself

We need to start taking control of the situation sooner rather than later
>>
>>21001462
Except that from the flashbacks, he may have found out about Faust (which he already said he knew about and told us about when we brought up Pinky for the first time), none of the flashbacks had either of the Golden Weapon wielders telling QB about getting them from Faust.
>>
>>21001462
Oh boy, this argument again. We weren't cleared to know that information, most likely. Simple omission is not a lie of omission.
>>
>>21001487

In the Mami flashback QB was discussing eye colour and soul gem purity before sending her on a witch hunt.
>>
>>21001487
Kharn just told us that she explained it to him
>>
>>21001257

The only person in our list that we left on bad terms with was Iori. I think if we have any hope of patching things with her, we need to do it now, directly and not through Mami. Before we sleep for a month and give her all the time in the world to worry and do something stupid. She deserves that much.

That said, I don't mind calling Mami first and getting advice. That's part of what screwed us the first time, not testing the waters first.
>>
>>21001490
I just think it becomes a bit more serious the more lives it puts on the line. As far as we know as Chiaki, at any point while wielding those weapons we could have completely lost it. Killing at least one other magical girl depending on the mission and possibly dying ourselves.

From the point of alien logic QB didn't do anything wrong, or from a rules lawyer standpoint either. But from where Chiaki is I can imagine more than a few hurt feelings for those omissions.

You make your decision, and punch in Tomoe Mami's number by rote memory alone. She'd probably want an update on the message she asked you to send the pilot, as well as tell her how you're doing in Siberia. Yes, that would only be proper - you can't have her worrying herself sick over you, after all. Your personal goddess of pancakes and fortune deserves just more than that.

The screen in front of you hums as the call initiates; the sound of the other end of the line ringing a bit scratchy, but otherwise audible and clear. Mami picks up at the fourth ring, and the words [SOUND ONLY] in rather sinister-looking crimson typeface glow into existence on the screen's surface, imposing and almost warning-like.

Pity. A friendly face that wasn't Kharn's would be nice about now.

"Hello?" Mami's voice comes on, breathy, hurried. As if you'd caught her in the middle of something. "Chiaki-san? Is this you? The number's unlisted, I didn't know who it was at first." Another moment. "Are you...are you calling from Siberia? Did you arrive there safely? Is Misaka-chan and Midori-chan alright? Have you eaten already?"

You try to answer Mami's barrage of questions as best as you can while glancing towards Kharn pointedly, who seems to be listening in rapt attention to the blonde's warm voice. She finally seems to notice, her cheeks reddening, and your former partner excuses herself, embarrassed. "Will be waiting outside, take your time," the ex-Warmaster whispers, before tiptoeing out of the room, gently closing the door behind her with a click.

"...Oh, I see. Well, it's good that you got there safely. I'm not really a fan of flying myself, to be honest. I'd rather drive if I wanted to get anywhere." A small giggle. "But yes, I'm glad you got there without any worries. I heard it was quite the rough flight."

[1/2]
>>
>>21001664

no reason not to give her a curtisy call like were doing for our other frienemies.
>>
>>21001722

Well, it wasn't really rough, but the smiling pink demon in your nightmares did drop by and visit for a chat(You don't tell her this, of course), so it may as well be considered that.

You tell her instead that you've followed her request to the letter.

"...Thank you, Chiaki-san." Another stifled giggle. "I'm sorry if I had to make you do that. I know, it seems a bit cruel, but I believe he really needed that. I could've done it myself, but..."

You momentarily imagine Mami punching someone out, before shaking your head. Impossible. Mami's not the sort.

You tell her that it was your pleasure to do so, and she giggles again. "Thank you, Chiaki-san. I promise not to give you too many of those weird requests, but I'm glad to know I can count on you, even when you're about to become Warmaster." It's then that her voice turns a bit cheeky. "Don't forget us little people when you're famous, Chiaki-san!"

How do you respond?

It WILL become obsession if we keep stringing her along. But she's not completely loopy just yet.
>>
>>21001890
It's still one more psychotic magical girl/witch that we'll end up having to deal with should Iori completely lose it. It would be far more prudent to diffuse the situation before that happens, letting her down gently and getting her out of Matsuda's life is probably the best way to do that.

>>
>>21001956
If that's what you consider normal behaviour for someone when they are attracted to a person then I have some bad news for you
>>
>>21002040
Soul Gems need to be within 100 (feet or meters, can't remember) for the body to work. Plus some materials could block the gem's "control frequency".
That said, putting the gem on under a set of Kevlar body armor seems like something that would be standard use if the girls knew that they were basically liches that needed to protect their phylacteries.
>>
>>21002040
Because, when in MG form, the soul is worn as a brooch, which makes armouring impossible, and when in "normal" form, they wear it as a ring.

No.

I'm guessing it's part of the transformation to place the gem somewhere stupidly visible and only incubators can really move the position or something.
>>
>>21002040
When they transform and are actively being magical, it's usually stuck to them somewhere. Ours, for instance, is on the back of our hand, and a half-inch titanium glove would probably impair our ability to shoot dudes.

Other than that, it's usually in ring form, which is fairly small and durable.

I don't think we have, but we're not quite certain on how our bag of holding works. Worse case scenario the shield blocks the control frequencies, turning off our powers and losing the gem in some pocket dimension.

I'm sure you'll make a great Warmaster, just remember not to be shy to ask us for help if you need it. Kyoko-chan, Sayaka-chan and I will be behind you one hundred percent!"


...You're certainly glad for her being in your corner, like Kyoko is, but Sayaka...well, you're not too sure about that. You thank her still, however, but not before asking her what really got you chosen as a viable Warmaster candidate. Sure, you managed to get through three missions without...screwing up too much, but that doesn't necessarily mean that you'd be a great leader, right?

"You're selling yourself much too short, Chiaki-san!" Mami chides you, and you hear the rustle of cloth in the background. "It's not just the popular vote that counts! There are recommendations from the other rank leaders, feedback from previous clientele, how well you've been doing in Kyuubey's monthly performance reviews...everything, really! Although..." A moment's silence. "...I do wonder. Kumatora-san, if you remember her, was talking about this manga that seemed to feature you, of all things. Would you happen to know anything about that, Chiaki-san?"

More cloth rustling. "Oh, and things are quiet over here, if you're wondering. Nothing to report, really. Although Iori-chan did call me, earlier, to ask if there were any good restaurants around Mitakihara I could recommend. She said something about a date?"

How do you respond?

We're not wasting her. Her gem has been in our shield before. We got it back out and gave it back to her.

We just don't know if she's been CONSCIOUS while it has been in our shield before.

Which is something to test.

>>21002120
It Iori is going on a date, it seems like she's more or less forgotten about us. It would probably be best to leave her be and not call her so she can just move on rather than open old wounds.
We should probably play dumb about the manga, getting Mami involved in that will just end in tears. Plus we know it's spread over the office so attempts to confiscate it probably won't work too well. If anything, it will just cause the Barbra Streisand Effect, where attempts to remove something only cause it to get more publicity.

well that's great, very small chance that it is not with Garcia though.
Midori's parents had a good place right? although that might not work so well if Kyuubey moved them elsewhere.

I am aware that Mami is completly out of league, hell I even think that out our Harem she would be the second worst choice after Iori, simply because Mami is way more than a crush.
To Chiaki she is probably the only thing akin to..well.. close family. She is Mom, Dad and big Sister all fused into one, so while Chiaki may have a crush on her and adore her, I think that we shouldn`t act on it.

Mami is Mami, thats all there is to it.

That said, I`m still curious though who it is beside her!

Sorry, Mami.

A date? You blink slowly at the screen in front of you, the red font on the black surface blurring slightly. Iori was asking Mami for restaurant recommendations for a date?

You blink again as you glance down at your left hand - it's trembling, slightly. You pull it towards your lap and clasp it with your other. Biting on your lip momentarily to gather your thoughts, let this surprising tidbit of information sink in.

"Well, I didn't really ask if it was for a date, but it certainly seemed that way. I gave her recommendations to that lobster place in the Upper District, that's always a nice place to eat, not too high-class, but good food." A pause. "Chiaki-san? Is something the matter? You're breathing kind of heavily...or is that the static? I know reception isn't really good over there..."

You mumble something out just as you shake your head, before loudly clearing your throat. You're fine, you tell her. Just probably a cloud or something interrupting the signal. If Iori's dating, then...that's a good thing, right? It's best all around, really, if she found someone else a bit more stable - both financially and mentally - than you, someone who could provide her whatever she wants or needs. Someone who doesn't constantly try to one-up herself on trying to kill every last brain cell in her head with an overdose of painkillers, bad moonshine and Kong. Someone who can give her a safe home to come home to, not a dingy apartment that smells of gun oil and stale alcohol.

Someone who's not you, put simply enough. No one deserves having to put up with you for too long. Mami already does, and that's enough. No need to burden anyone else.

It's the right thing to do. It's the right thing to do. The right thing.

>>21002570

"Hmm, I see. Well, I'm glad you think that way, Chiaki-san. You're right, it's the best all around." Mami's voice is cheerful, seeing as she isn't exactly privy to your train of thought, only the bits you say. "She's got a future of her own, despite the things that've been happening left and right. With any luck, that Garcia boy and her friends will get her back on her feet soon enough. And no, Chiaki-san, I don't believe she's been contracted, that would be just silly. Kyuubey wouldn't do such a thing, not to someone like her."

...Yeah. Garcia. You resist the temptation to growl out the name, but instead you take a swig from the vodka bottle you've brought into the room with you.

The right thing.

At least you don't have to worry about Kyuubey suddenly announcing Iori as his latest recruit.

More rustling of cloth in the background. You try to ignore it as you deny any and all knowledge about a certain manga featuring you. Well, you've heard about it, but that's only what you know. You have a suspicion your latest subordinate would have an idea about it, however.

"Oh? Midori-chan? Hmm. Well, I suppose I can ask her about it when you get back. I heard a few of the girls in the cafeteria talking about how it's going to be adapted into an after-dark anime soon, by a popular anime studio, no less."

...Right. An anime. Yes. You have no idea.

"I don't know how long I'm going to be gone, it could just be for the length of standard training, but things might arise to make it take a much longer, months longer. Please make sure everyone knows so they don't worry about me.

Kharn told me the story of 'Girl A'. Well, in between her getting distracted by talking about blondes she told me. I want you to know that I would happily kill as many squads of Eversors as it took to keep you safe. You saved me and I don't even remember it half the time, I'm sorry for that.

Okay, first to take in Interest in her in close proximity. And there's a reason I capitalized the I. Mami & Kyouko's friendship is an entirely different kettle of interesting fish.

Also, Murderface is intimidating as FUCK to the other Officio girls.
>>
>>21002702
All of this.
>>
>>21002786
What about Kumatora? And how much older Iori is from Misaka? Chiaki experienced both admiration and love already.
Iori has nothing to make Chiaki care this much. I'm not saying she should disregard her but this?
Two days of pouting, masturbation session, pretty dress and that's It?
My suspension of disbelief sense refuses to accept that so easily
>>
>>21002784

I don't think you understand. For one thing, we already have a lot of enemies, and we're certain to make more once we become Warmaster.

Compared to most of our friends, Iori would make for a juicy, defenseless target.
>>
>>21002842

She was with us a week or two. There was a while between the first bodyguarding gig and the Kilgore thing.
>>
>>21002861
Well, yeah. That's where the second part comes in. No use taking hostages against us if people think we're apt to just kill the hostages too.
>>
>>21002842
We also spend a week with her.

>It has been an entire week since Kirika Kure's retirement.

>The week itself had mostly been uneventful. With Iori having purchased your services, you've been taken off the duty rotation - as such, you didn't need to check in every day with Kyuubey to find out if you were to be assigned someplace else. Iori and Mami seemed to have hit it off pretty well, and they've been going out nearly every day.
>>
>>21002842
Different type of love ( if you can really call Misaka and Mirderface's relationship that ) which is more like siblings
and admiration =/= love, Kumatora we have seen idolizes Murderface and we respect that she still likes us even after we trained her but we don't get any lesbian lust waves coming from her on the homudar so she is either running silent or doesn't actually want to bang Murderface
>>
>>21002842
I think the main problem is that a bunch of waifu fags wanted to romance her at first so Deculture put in Matsuda's feelings for Iori. Thankfully, it seems everyone has more or less come to their senses and realized what a terrible idea romance is in a noir.
The faster we and Iori move on, the better.
>>
>>21002881

Which works great until someone calls your bluff.
>>
>>21002880
>>21002896
Okay, two weeks of pouting and pretty dresses.
And apparently she was mostly out. Enough for little sister treatment but not this >>21002570
>>
>>21002906
>what a terrible idea romance is in a noir.
So why don't we just put a bullet in our Soulgem, like was suggested? If everything is going to go badly, if there's no use in trying to go for a better life, and if every romance is doomed to failure, why not just end it instead of prolonging the inevitable?
>>
>>21002916
Like an insane murderous golden weapon wielding magical girl who doesn't particularly care if she butchers a few hundred people to get our attention?

>>21002906
Actually it is a great idea, it gives the protagonist something to lose and makes the descent into darkness all the better
I think Deculture put it in there to bait people and to cause this situation
>>
>>21002929

To be fair, it's been a pretty eventful two weeks.
>>
>>21002946

Because all life is just prolonging the inevitable. Our profession just makes us acutely aware of it, is all.

Also, no pancakes in hell.
>>
I feel like it's worth pointing out that regardless of our feelings, Murderface seems to care quite a lot about Iori. We're not determining whether there's a romance, we're determining whether Chiaki tries to cut ties to keep her safe or not.
>>
>>21002929
For someone emotionally starved as murderface? Not really

The closest she had until that two weeks was Mami being warm and motherly towards her, having someone go full on true rabu? Enough to screw her up more than she realizes emotionally
>>
>>21002974

At this point "Keeping her safe" means keeping her AWAY.

At this point, given Pinky's interest in us, her being guarded by Mami, Kyouko and Sayaka puts her at a MARKEDLY lower level of risk than being guarded by us.
>>
>>21003012
That is correct but trying to get rid of her completely is just asking for her to contract and wish for us to love her and while Kyuubey won't contract someone with a future we have had no indication about any other incubators being as discerning
>>
>>21002971
And, as was pointed out, this is a Noir story and so the pancakes are going to go away.
>>
>>21002974
I vote for cutting ties.

Chiaki herself is aware of that that she is a walking desaster waiting to happen.
Despite all of that Idol-Shit Iori is still a somewhat normal girl. We should keep her out of it for her own good.
Even a Friendship with someone who is so much down the rabbit-hole like Chiaki seems like a bad idea to me, and somehow I`m sure that Chiaki knows this too.
>>
>>21003033
Don't you fucking dare suggest that.

Anything but the pancakes.
>>
>>21003012
>>21003036
I agree with both of you on a logical level, but is it worth being miserable? Clearly we all need to live in the Blessed Lady's Golden Yuri Land together, as sisters in madness.

Mami can come too.
>>
>>21003036
That would work but remember how hurt she seemed when we said we considered her an employer and not a friend?
We cut ties completely and bad things will happen
>>
... So what should we do.
Make Midori into Iori's replacement and keep telling her to use the Iori disguise every-time we sleep together?
>>
As long as Iori is stable and obsessing over someone else, I suggest cutting all ties and moving on. If Iori still in danger of contracting over something stupid, we should keep her at a distance and try to carefully friendzone her. Then cut all ties later after she's been stabilized.

Capcha: hellated accuracy
I'm not sure what that means, but it doesn't sound good.
>>
>>21003068
Anything but this, if we were to get into a relationship or fuckbuddies with Midori then it would be the ultimate bitch move to ask her to be someone else. How many people actually want rabu with Iori?
>>
>>21003033
>the pancakes are going to go away
See >>21000983
>>
>>21003068
>>21003094
I was joking.

I am not sure about cutting ties like that but I suppose we should attempt to give her a push and try to get her to restart her life.
>>
>>21003068
No, she'll ask who we want her to be and then we can say that what we want most in the world is already right in front of us. We then reach our arms around her.

Finally we grab the whisky that was right behind her and take a swig.
>>
>>21003068
>implying that wouldn't ruin Midori, who has a history of being unloved and desperately wanting an emotional connection with someone to the point of writing self-insert porn where her magical ability was to make people care about her

You give the now almost-empty bottle of vodka a healthy pull before you trust yourself to talk once more. Trying to ignore the burning in your chest, you tell Mami that you're not too sure how long you'll be staying in Siberia, and there might be the possibility that it would take you months before you're able to get home. If that should happen, could you trust her to make sure that everyone knows, so people won't start to wonder?

"Of course, Chiaki-san. Leave it to me." Mami's voice is bright, cheerful, warm like a plate of freshly-cooked pancakes dripping with syrup and butter. "I'll make sure everyone who needs to know does so."

You thank her for that, and go on to tell her how you've been catching up with the Betrayer lately. You tell her that you'd gladly slaughter as many squads of Eversors to keep her safe. She's saved you enough times that you don't even remember any of it, and you apologize for that.

A moment of silence, before a pleased, if hesitant smile colors Mami's voice. "I'm...no, Chiaki-san, you don't have to thank me. You needed rescuing. You would have done the same for me - and you did, albeit in a rather roundabout and really...bloody way." A sigh. "Of course, I'm...I'm not saying I'm alright with what you did, back then, but...thank you, too, Chiaki-san. You really go out of your way to intimidate people, but you're just a softy underneath, aren't you?"

A softy. First time you've been called that, by Mami of all people. But sure. Why not.

You bring up the subject of aides after a few moments, and how you're going to need aides when all is said and done. You drop Kyoko's name as one of your prospects, and Mami seems surprised at this. Surprised, but not at all displeased.

"Kyoko-chan? That's...that's actually a good choice, Chiaki-san!" Mami nods, agreeing quickly. "Kyoko-chan's great with handling people, both in and out of combat! She's not too good with paperwork, though, so you'll have to look at getting another aide for that...o-oh, and I'd clear it with Sayaka-chan too, just in case. You're the Warmaster, of course, you don't need to, but it's a nice thing to do."


Yes. Of course. You'll consider it. You let out the breath you've been holding, and glance down at the hands on your lap.

Your left hand's stopped trembling, at least.

Some more rustling, and it's loud enough that you cannot ignore it any longer. You ask Mami, then, with your usual tact and subtlety, if you called at a bad time.

"W-what? I...um..." Mami is clearly taken aback by this. "N-no, of course not, Chiaki-san! I'm not sleeping with anyone! N-not at the moment!"

If she says so. It's just that you heard some rustling, so maybe--
>>
>>21003169
This guy gets it.
>>
>>21003251

"I'm telling you it's nothing, Chiaki-san. Please believe me, alright?" There it was. That tiny note in Mami's voice that, while still pleasant, told you that you had better stop this line of questioning, or there will be words. Not that she meant any harm by it - just that Mami had always been a private person. She would share anything with you, give you anything you wanted from her, but she would never allow anyone to get into her own affairs if she didn't want them to at the first place. And you respected that.

Like you will do, right now.

"If there's nothing else, then, Chiaki-san?"

You let out a sigh and say that you don't have anything. Only that you miss her.

You are sober enough, at least, to leave out 'and your pancakes'.

Mami's voice softens at that. "I miss you too, Chiaki-san. Please, take care of yourself. I'll be waiting for you until you get back. Until then, please take care of Misaka-chan and Midori-chan, okay? Oh, and please say hello to Kharn for me, and thank her for taking care of you!"

You will. She says goodbye, and the connection is severed.

We need to talk to Kyouko about a few things, especially the idea of her being our aide, but before we do that we really REALLY need to talk to Sayaka about that. I'd rather not blindside Sayaka on this one, it'd make her mad and justifiably so.

Kyoko and then Kyubei.
Kyoko should probably be given forewarning that she may be recruited as Warmaster's Aide and that she should probably clear it with Sayaka. She'll probably want the job as she'll be able to get more grief seeds for Sayaka without darkening her own gem all that much.
Kyubei should be yelled at and questioned about the Golden Weapons and what else he's hiding from us.

In a previous thread, it was suggested that there would be several ideal people in Chiaki's cabinet:

Kyouko - for the regular aide stuff (excluding paperwork) and social skills.

Mami - for advice and pancakes and additional PR.

Sayaka - since taking Kyouko alone would lead to more unneeded animosity. Plus, she respects but doesn't like Chiaki; she might be able to give us blunt and honest and unbiased feedback/criticism. She may also serve as a reasonable representative of what the Officio thinks about something as a whole.

Midori - for spywork, subterfuge, paperwork (and any aide stuff that Kyouko can't or won't handle). Once we get a feel for her capabilities (har), more possibilities will open up.

Oh, no, I'm aware. But it's not something we NEED to worry about until we get back. It's a good idea to talk with her now, it's just not urgent. And you're right about the Sayaka thing, but if Kyoko's the best choice then we really don't need her approval. We're not trying to cuckold Sayaka, anyway.

And we should suggest she learn to do paperwork. Because it'd be better to have someone more experienced and combat-capable. Midori is utility and subterfuge.

BTW, do we know if Karn know about the doujin?

Probably not. First one came out around the time she went to Siberia, if I'm remembering right, and she has not struck me as the type to avidly follow Comiket releases.

Too busy being lewd at/with/to attractive blonde magical girls.

She owns all of the ones with Mami.

I don't think we're giving enough thought to the 10th's agents, though.
Mirai was out there, waiting for us, on the same day that we arrived at the R&D lab. That is dangerously close to our own arrival. And that she was that close to the facility can't be a coincidence. Either the location of the facility is compromised, or Jyuubei can still track Midori.
We really need to bring this up to QB.

And we will. Later.

The base has had the bear problem for some time, which implies that Mirai's been here for a while. But why would she be out here if Midori only just arrived? Seems like a cover up and the 10th is planning something and only using Midori's defection as a cover.

I said that the day we fought her. But nobody cared.

Mirai is still alive, though currently bodyless. We can always interrogate her and try to contact Jyubei.

>>21004040
That or the Bears just got big and organized all of a sudden due to random radiation.

...

Oh who am I kidding? It most likely was Mirai.

There was that skier's body we found, too.
Kind of suspicious, for there to be a lone skier, all the way out here in Siberia.
