Well, anyway.

There's just one more name on your list to cross out, and it's one that you added during the trip itself: Kyuubey, the Incubator of the Ninth Officio Assassinorum and pretty much the big boss. He's not really all that bad when you compare him to the other Incubators - he's polite, keeps to a timetable, and makes sure that every Magical Girl under his employ has a roof over her head and hot meals three times a day.

Hell, he even pays for a contractee's schooling if she wanted to be a working student! Of course, she'd be on call all the time, but she wouldn't need to drop out of school if she wanted to finish her education. When you asked him about this, he mentioned something about how one day, Incubators will be rendered obsolete by the Universe, and Magical Girls will be allowed to become what they were meant to be.

You thought he sounded sad when he said this, but you were giving him a tummy rub then, so you couldn't really tell back then.

Putting that aside, what do you get someone who is by all rights an alien mutant cat, and has enough money that he actually has an actual mini-fridge in his own office?

An actual mini-fridge. Filled with chocolate milk.

You don't get something like that if you're not a big shot.

"Didn't we already decide on catnip, though?" Your little helper in her reindeer mascot costume, Yuma, voxes beside you. You're both standing in front of what looks to be a pet store selling a lot of pet supplies. "By all rights, an Incubator is pretty much just like a cat. Biologically similar, too. So cat nip should work."

Well, yes, but it's not that Maximum, is it? Catnip's just catnip. Do you really want to be known as the Magical Girl who gave her Incubator a buncha weeds?

So, what do you get Kyuubey?

[]Cat nip.
[]A Cat tower.
[]One of those things they make cats wear. Like a stuffed croissant headgear, you've seen one of those things.

Right! Besides a pound bag of cat nip, you'll get him one of those cat towers you always see whenever Sayaka sends you those pictures of cats with english words pasted on them. You've always thought cat towers were a bit...indulgent and decadent for a pet, as far as making them comfortable was concerned. After all, aren't cats supposed to roam around an' such? Your entire house is literally their cat tower, no need to spend any more on them besides the food an' the litter box. It's almost comparable to folks who buy pets for their pets. Crazy.

But when applied to your boss, who just happens to be a mutant cat, the concept is kinda cute, somehow. Actually, now that you've thought about it, you can't stop thinking about it, which pretty much cements your decision right then and there.

So, with the utmost conviction of treating your multi-billionaire boss as no different than a pampered fat feline, you step into the pet shop named 'Ganaha's Savannah'.

The first thing you realize here - besides the pet store having, well, real live animals walking around the premises - is that it doesn't smell like any pet store you've ever walked into. It has kind of an earthy smell - pleasant, kinda forest-like. Certainly not the nose-crumpling amalgamation of scents that has tepid water, fish food, and cat droppings mixed in.

"...Sempai, there's a crocodile crawling towards my leg," Yuma's voice crackles from her helm's speakers. "Sempai, the crocodile is on my leg. It's rubbing up against my leg." A moment more. "It's become MY LEG--"

"Oh, customers!" A voice pipes up from the depths of the pet store, and you turn to look at what appears to be the store owner walking towards you. She's wearing a teal tube top and denim cutoffs, with a pink apron over the entire deal. Her black hair, long and unruly, is tied off in a rather jaunty topknot, the length of it trailing down her back. Her bright green eyes a striking offset from her slightly-tanned skin, topped off by an enthusiastic grin with a protruding canine. "First customers of the day, even! What can I get for ya? Oh, and don't mind Hunter, he's just bein' friendly!"

"Whoa." Despite her crocodile-related troubles, Yuma gasps at the owner's arrival. "It's like...it's like I'm in a bad science fiction movie, or something." A moment. "Sempai, you're...you're not looking to lose your virginity now, are you?"

What? What the hell is this kid talking about? The hell is Malal teaching Yuma?

How do you respond to the shopkeeper?

>>22279214

I assume it's about the cliche that in bad horror movies making out trigger your death flag.

>lose your virginity
Okay, I don't want to delve into this too hard, but given how long are Red&Blue together and how close they are, I don't think this could be an issue anymore at this point.

"N-nevermind, sempai." Yuma says after a moment, shaking her head, the plush antlers perched on top of her helmet wiggling back and forth. "For...forget I ever said anything."

Hnh. Well. You'll have to talk to her about the sort of nonsense that Malal's filling her head with. That's for later, though - right now, you've got a cat tower to purchase.

But first, greetings. Greetings must be made.

"YO!" You hold up a hand towards the ceiling, addressing the shopkeeper with the proper amount of confidence and bluster. "How's business?!"

The girl narrows her eyes at you, before suddenly grinning and returning the greeting, word for word, motion by motion. "YO! Not too bad, not too bad!"

"MERRY CHRISTMAS!"

"SAME TO YOU!"

"They talk the same," You hear Yuma's mumblings crackle through her vox in a breathless gasp. "They look the same, they act the same. They're just as annoyingly energetic as each other, too. T-this must be what going mad feels like. N-no, no, Miss Malal taught me to keep calm, and--"

Bwah. You should really have a talk with Malal. She's bringing up the kid with the completely wrong values!

"What's her deal?" The shopkeeper nods towards your little reindeer helper. "I get the costume, but what's with the helmet? Kinda clashing, ain't it?"

"Ah, it's something she has to wear, or else she gets a bit...ya know." You tap your temple, ignoring Yuma's clearly offended grunt. "Anyway, I wanna cat tower that'll kick my ass. It's for the boss, he's a...real cat person." A moment. "Oh, and probably a pound bag of high quality catnip, whatever you got."

[1/2]
>>
>>22279643

"Oh, cat stuff!" The shopkeeper nods. "Yeah, I got a lot of that. Had to stock up just last week, after the crazy catpeople came rushing in to buy presents fer their 'life partners'." She mimes the quotation marks with curled fingers. "I mean, I like animals an' all, but some of them actually buy pets for their pets. Nuttier than peanut butter, those folks."

Yeah, definitely. You watch as she whistles what sounds like a complicated tune, holding out an arm - and, no kidding, you see two bluebirds and a freakin' HAWK perch upon her arm. Like some sorta Disney princess.

"Aaanyway, what you want is the CatMaster 3000." The shopkeeper points towards a particularly-expensive looking box with the picture of a cat tower built like...well, it's built like something expensive. With towers, tiers, hideaways and stairs. "That's the best I got, and the only one I have left." She whistles again, and the birds fly off - one of the bluebirds flitting about and resting on your shoulder, calm as you like. "Oh, hey! Little fella likes you, he's usually shy around customers, 'specially new ones. Ain't that something?"

Well, you're not much of a bird person, but you think the critter's cute. You like dogs more, you say.

"Yeah, I get that." She nods in understanding. "Oh, uh, catnip's already there." She points to a large sealed bag of the stuff, piled beside similar ones in the corner of the store. "I usually sell 'em by the packet, but since you're buying it in bulk, may as well get you one of those. They're three pounds a bag, and I'll give you the discount fer it. Just take one and I'll ring it up along with the CatMaster 3000, no problem."

>>22279437
Besides what's already been said, wasn't it established that all the 765 Idols survived?

>>22279653

Well, now this is what you're talking about! Good service!

You thank her while handing over your debit card.

"Pleasure doing business with ya." She grins as she moves back towards the register, swiping your card and doing the thing with the ringing up and everything. "So, uh, y'always dress up like that or is it just the season?"

Seems that the shopkeeper is making small talk.

How do you respond?
>>
>>22279621

well, I wonder if the amnesia thing is going to last when we get back. we are rebuilding our psyche so I am expecting that the first worlds we will say after we reassemble ourselves is "My name is Homura Akemi, and I remember everything!"

"Work clothes, eh? Yeah, I can relate." The Shopkeeper looks you up and down, nodding. "Had to dress up a coupla times like that too, except there's much more skin showing. I like yours, looks nifty and active. The detached sleeves are a bit much though, but that's just my opinion."

Well, yeah, you actually think the same, but they keep your arms warm, at least. You wish you can say the same for your armpits, though, but them's the breaks.

"Yeah, some people'd call that a charm point and stuff. First it was like, the skin where your stockings ended, now it's armpits. It's crazy."

Yeah. Lot of perverts in this town.

A series of beeps and the loud scritching of an ancient receipt printer interrupts your conversation, and it's then that the girl hands you back your debit card, along with a rolled-up receipt. "Aaand there we go! Y'got yourself a CatMaster 3000 and a three pound bag of catnip. Whoever you're buying it for is pretty darn lucky." There's a rustling of plastic as she bags both the box and the bag of catnip - and you load yourself down with both. The cat tower is actually heavier, but it's nothing you can't handle. "So, uh, nothing else, then? Can't ask you to adopt one of my critters here, can I?"

"Sempai, the crocodile is still my leg." Yuma whispers, tugging at your sleeve.

"O-oh, but not Hunter, y'can't take him." The shopkeeper giggles as she moves to detach the giant green lizard from your reindeer helper's leg, which it seems to have been quite attached to. "Had to fight through customs to get this sucker through from Africa, and I'll be lonely without him around."

Heh. Well...adopting a pet's something you'd like to do, but probably in another month or so. You'll probably be too busy in the coming weeks, and it'll just be bad for the pet.

[1/2]
>>
>>22279959

"Oh? Ah, yeah, that sounds bad. Sure, come back anytime when you're a bit more ready, then." It's then that she holds out her hand, and you take it, grasping it firmly. "Thanks for your business, any case! Name's Hibiki Gahana, hope to see you again sometime soon!"

You return her grin, and give her your name, as well. You promise that you'll try to be back soon enough, maybe with a couple of friends too. She beams at this, and you exchange numbers before you and Yuma leave with your purchases.

And with that, you've just completed THE LIST! You'd raise your arms in triumph, but as it is you're feeling a bit worn out from staying on MAXIMUM CHRISTMAS the entire time. In fact, you feel as though you've gone sparring with yourself for twelve rounds straight!

"I'm...I think I'm almost worn out, too, Sempai." Yuma replies, clutching the bags that contained Mami's presents. "S-so, er, let's go back, then? Maximum Christmas and all that?"

Yeah. Maximum Christmas.

You reach over and pat Yuma on the head -- or helmet, anyway. She's done good, to help you on this little sidequest.

"N-no thanks necessary, sempai." Despite all that you've put her through, today, you hear genuine cheer in her voice, if a bit colored by fatigue. "I enjoyed it. It was insane, and kind of a bother, but...we don't get out much, anymore, so this was...really great. I should be thanking you." She stops in her tracks to turn and face you directly - and with her arms full of gifts, she bows slightly at the waist, her reindeer horns drooping.

"...I really enjoyed being out here with you, sempai. Thank you."

How do you react?

"It was my pleasure. It's good to see that someone else understood MAXIMUM CHRISTMAS. I have one final order for you, spread this cheer to the rest of the Culexus for me. They need it. Play games together, drink cocoa by the fireplace, don't let them sit in their separate rooms being morose.

[x] Try to organize a Christmas-Party at Hanegawa`s for the Culexus-Girls.

Since only Megucas react badly to them it shouldn`t actually be a problem if you drag them out of the Officio, right?

You have no reply to Yuma's thanks except to step forward and pull the girl into a hug, nearly making her drop all the stuff you'd loaded her down with, your cheek pressing against the cold plexiglass of her helmet's visor. You hear her gasp at this, a surprised exhalation expressed by digitized speakers, but she offers no protest at all, this time. In fact, you feel her return the hug as best as she could.

It's after a few moments that you draw back, having finally organized your thoughts enough. You tell her that you're just glad someone else understood what you were trying to do. You apologize if it has been a bother for her, you going about all MAXIMUM CHRISTMAS and all - but you just wanted to make sure that the people you consider friends, including Yuma herself, to not forget what's really important. Especially in your line of work.

"W-well, I'm sure they won't forget it easily, this time." Yuma looks up at you, the smile evident in her voice. "S-so, um, should we go, sempai? We've got all we need, right?"

Hmm. You let Yuma free from your grasp, before glancing about once. Yeah, you guess you've got everything. It's then that you ask her if she can go ahead and bring the Marauder around? You just need to check something at the last second.

"O-oh? Er, sure, sempai." She nods, the reindeer horns flopping this way and that. "I'll just take this and park the car outside the lobby, yeah? Ten minutes?"

You nod at this, and she dutifully heads off, again. Once she's out of sight, it's then that you backtrack to the shop that you've been to only a few minutes ago.

"Oi, Kyoko-chan!" Hibiki greets you, blinking in surprise. "Changed your mind or somethin'...?"

BRACE FOR MAXIMUM CHRISTMAS
>>
>>22280398

It's well into the afternoon when you finally get back to the Officio in the warmaster's Marauder. Yuma, still in her reindeer outfit, pulsed a request for help for the other Culexus to assist in getting all the presents out. It's actually a lot, and they've given you a trolley thing to wheel the presents around in. They would've delivered the presents for you, but they didn't want to...spoil the delivery as it was. They were Culexus, after all, and a lot of them walking around at once would make it difficult to spread CHRISTMAS around.

As it is, you're left with your helper, and your not very Christmasy trolley-slash-sleigh.

So, who do you spread the Maximum Christmas to, first?

[]Sayaka.
[]Mami.
[]Kharn.
[]Murderface.
[]Malal.
[]Kyuubey.
>>
>>22280417
Let's save Sayaka for last.

Let's start with Kyuubey, good way to start, and his package is the heaviest.
>>
>>22280417

Gotta take care of the GF first. After that go by rank.

>>22280417

Coobie. Might catch Kharn, Malal and Mami with him. Sayaka should be saved for last.

He could assemble the cat tower by himself with his 'ears'.

>>22280432
Nothing says MAXIMUM CHRISTMAS like opening presents while you alien mutant cat thing boss literally bounces off the walls.

QB first.
>>
>>22280471

That is if it works on alien cats at all. Doesn't work on all cats so that + alien might not mix well.

If it does work, this is going to be awesome
>>
>>22280488
It's worth a shot, and even if it doesn't it's the thought that counts.

Alright. You decide to start off the MAXIMUM CHRISTMASING with your boss and Incubator, Kyuubey. With Yuma the Reindeer's help, you manhandle the trolley into the elevator leading up to his office. After a few moment's worth of grunting and pushing and swearing, you manage to wheel your impromptu sleigh past the entrance, and into the double doors leading to the Incubator's Sanctum.

"...T-this is the first time I've ever been here," Yuma murmurs, looking around. "A-are you sure this is okay, sempai? I mean, this is the Incubator we're kind of barging into without prior notice..."

It'll be fine, you tell her. If the both of you get in trouble for it, well, you'll take responsibility. You're her sempai, after all!

"I know that, but--"

The Culexus' protest is cut short by you basically kicking the doors to Kyuubey's Office open, resulting in loud echoing thuds that basically just boom around the enclosed space and surprising the hell out of the people currently talking to your boss. Malal, Kharn and Mami, probably standing around and worrying about Walpurgisnacht again. Confidently, you stride forward, pulling the trolley along by its front with one hand, while Yuma pushed from behind.

"...Kyoko-san?" Mami says after a few moments of stunned silence, with Kharn still blinking and Malal shrugging. "..What are you doing? What's in that trolley? And--"

"--what have you done with Omegon?" Malal's voice, corrupted by her vox speakers, overpowers the blonde's own quite easily. "Is...is that a reindeer costume?"

[1/2]
>>
BY THE GODS, DID WE FORGET TO GO BACK FOR MAXIMUM SCANDALOUS?!
>>
>>22281204
The ones we got were pretty scandalous anyway.
>>
>>22281174

"Eh? Reindeer? What animal is--" Your Warmaster, Kharn, narrows her eyes at the word, saying it a couple of times, as if trying out its taste. "Oh, you mean, like with Santa Claus, and his horse things?" She turns back towards Yuma, eyes wide, before suddenly erupting in a snorting fit of giggling. "Ahahaha! Is perfect! M-Malal, t-that should be new Anima Speculum version!"

Malal seems to be less than amused, however. "Sakura, is this some kind of joke? Are you trying to make a fool out of my Culexus?"

Yuma seems to shrink at at that, but you bolster her by throwing an arm around the Culexus and grinning confidently. "Of course not! Yuma here helped me get you fatheads presents, and we both decided to get into the spirit! See?" You point to your slightly dust-besmirched Santa Hat, perched upon your head. It's then that you point at the trolley. "And THOSE are presents. PRESENTS that I bought for you idiots who can't seem to just let yourselves take it easy, even on Christmas of all days!"

Mami, Malal and Kharn all turn to look at each other, and it's then that the blonde Vindicare Rank Leader speaks up, an uncertain smile on her voice. "Kyoko-san, um, I know that you're upset about the Secret Santa, but Walpurgisnacht--"

"NO! NO WALPURGISNACHT!" You shout, arms akimbo. "NO WITCHES, NOT TODAY! ONLY CHRISTMAS! MAXIMUM CHRISTMAS!"

Even Kharn winces at your enthusiasm. "Ah, um, I understand how you are excited, yes? But tone it down a little, yes? Kyuubey is very tired, he is sleeping." The Warmaster gestures with a claw towards the Incubator's high-backed leather seat, and you can see a small, white furry bundle curled up, its eyes closed.

Huh. Well. You've never seen Kyuubey sleep. You've always thought he never needed to.

[2/3]
>>
>>22281235
He can't sleep! We got him MAXIMUM CHRISTMAS presents!
>>
MAXIMUM WAKEUP TIME
>>
>>22281235

"Ah, yah, he keeps very strange hours, I know." Kharn nods. "He has been keeping track of Walpurgisnacht ever since we discovered it. Poor thing is tired, he could not even wake up for pettings."

Well, you suppose you'll just have to leave your present for him beside his desk, then. He can enjoy them when he wakes up.

You ask Yuma to off-load Kyuubey's presents for him, while you yourself personally deliver a faceful of MAXIMUM CHRISTMAS to the others present. The tea set and expensive premium tea for Mami; the canister of expensive pineapple salad to Malal; and the servitor skull to Kharn. Both Mami and Malal seem pleasantly surprised at this, the former smiling at you beautifully in thanks. You feel your cheeks redden at this.

Kharn, on the other hand...

"Ahaha, what is this? If this is joke present, Sakura, I will be very angry, you know?" Your Warmaster smiles as her fleshmetal hands neatly dissect the wrapping from the box, and the colorful paper lies in strips on the office floor as she finally sees what you got her. "W-wait. This is...this is hovering skull toy, that can play music and take notes? A-and it follows me around, and responds to voice commands?"

"I...I got you batteries for it, too," Yuma squeaks in hesitation - before nearly full-out screaming as the Warmaster charges her, pulling her into a bear hug and lifting her into the air.

"THIS! THIS I LIKE! THIS IS BEST GIFT!" Kharn is beside herself in exultation, all smiles and energy. "IT IS PERFECT! IT IS WHAT I HAVE ALWAYS WANTED! AHAHA!" The rest of you are just silent as you watch the most feared killer in the Officio behave like a child on Christmas morning. "Honestly, was expecting some kind of gag gift, Malal always gives me those, but this! Is perfect!" She crushes Yuma to her, before looking at you - and you do a double take as you see tears in Kharn's eyes. "Sakura! You are idiot sometimes, but thank you!"

No, you fools, this makes it better! Santa Kyouko came while he slept, and left him presents!
>>
>>22281289
>>22281275
>>22281269
Let him sleep, and he'll wake up to the sight of a castle for him and a pile of catnip right under his nose. He's been working hard, and it wouldn't be Christmassy to harass him.
>>
>>22281284

N-no problem! No problem at all! You manage to work up a grin and give her a thumbs up. Simply being MAXIMUM CHRISTMAS, after all!

"Hn? What's going on? What's the commotion about?" It's then that all five of you turn towards the Incubator's chair - and you see Kyuubey stirring in his seat, one perfectly-round eye opening, then the other. "Ah. Sakura Kyoko. I was wondering where you went--" It's then that he suddenly snaps up into all fours, looking around, suddenly animated. "...What is that smell? I can't place it, but it's around here, somewhere--"

His words trail off into silence as he spies the sealed bag of catnip stashed beside his desk, along with the boxed CatMaster 3000 - and quick as a flash, he'd pounced on the stuff, nuzzling it and pawing at it.

"...Catnip?" Malal says after a moment. "You got our boss catnip, Sakura? And a cat tower?"

You shrug at this, unable to form words as you see the normally-unflappable Incubator rolling around on top of the sealed bag of herbs. It's...it's a disturbing sight.

One that Malal, Kharn and Mami waste no time documenting with their smartphones.

You manage to break away from the sight long enough to ask Mami where the others are. Namely, Murderface and Sayaka.

"Oh, um. Sayaka, I think, went back to your apartment. She said she was going to try and cook dinner for the both of you." Mami says, turning once to look at you, before moving back to photographing Kyuubey. "She was a bit down earlier, after you left. Murderface is in her quarters, as usual."

[4/5]
>>
>>22281372

Ah. Right. Well, you have a present for her too, so you might as well give it personally, then.

"Oh, that'll be great! How considerate of you, Kyoko-san!" Mami seems to finally have accumulated enough blackmail material, and turns to embrace you warmly. "I'm sorry about earlier, but we weren't expecting you to react this way! Thank you for your gift, I'll make sure to treasure it, just like I treasure you!"

She ends this, predictably enough, with a kiss to your cheek, and another hug.

Well...Mami gonna Mami, anyway. You can't help but blush.

...Right, you should get going.

[]Tell them to help Kyuubey put his cat tower together, and leave for Murderface.
[]Have Mami give Murderface her gift instead, and go right for Sayaka. She can't wait.

[X] Tell them to help Kyuubey put his cat tower together, and leave for Murderface.

We should give Sayaka a chance to make dinner and finish all of our business. Then we'll be lingerie Santa for her.

Definitely have to deliver the booze in person or Kyouko will get chewed out by Mami in the next squad meeting.
>>
We got Yuma a real gift, right? The costume was just for fun?
>>
>>22281529

I would assume that that was what was implied by Kyouko running back to the pet store while Yuma brought the car around.

Probably got her a pet.
>>
>>22281529
Almost certainly. We told her to bring the car around and we visited the pet shop one last time.

I have no idea how we hid what we got her, I'm hoping a kitten, but we managed it.
>>
I'd like to point out another reason not to send Mami with booze.
Whiskey infused pancakes and Murderface.
Remember what was needed after that?
>>
>>22281372

You know, despite all the fun moments with Kyuubey. I am getting worried about him.

Thinking about what Jubey mentioned. I wonder we are going to find that the moment we get back the other incubators have declared our Officio Excommunicate Traitoris. Because they think that QB has gone too radical, reckless, native and developed mental disorders
>>
>>22281557
They probably won't care that much, they care about results, and Kyuubey get his results. I'm hoping that they at least won't start shit with all of the Pinky Golden Weapon business going on, too chaotic a situation, they knew that any actions they take could have severe and unexpected repercussions.
>>
>>22281386
>[x]Tell them to help Kyuubey put his cat tower together, and leave for Murderface.
Personal delivery because we are MAXIMUM Santa Kyouko. No exceptions.
>>
>>22281599

From what I read in this quest, the other incubators caused quite a fuss when Kharn's true nature came to light and QB refused to execute her.
Also recall this conversation with Jubey

>10> Do you think I'm interested in that...that thing that my older brother keeps locked up in that place?
>10> Like some sort of rabid pet?
>10> He's already got most of the other Incubators against him because of what he's done.

It looks like the other incubators know that Kyubey has captured Walpurgisnacht and keeps it locked up in his 'research lab'
>>
>>22281425 >>22281427 >>22281472

You decide to move on and give Murderface her present personally. You'll save Sayaka for last. But before you do, you ask them if they could help Kyuubey with his cat tower. It looks complicated to put together, anyway, and you don't think he can manage on his own. Being a mutant cat and all.

"Sure, why not?" Malal says, in the middle of prising open her canister of pineapple salad. "I've got the exact same model in my quarters. I'll have it up for him after he's done rolling around in catnip." She turns to Kharn and Mami. "Hey, want some pineapple salad? Fresh Hawaiian pineapples, I had Yuma get the best stuff."

"Oh, don't mind if I do, Miss Malal." Mami smiles, and Kharn seems to be up for some too, the Warmaster having prised open her own gift and was now leafing through its instruction manual. You smile at the success of MAXIMUM CHRISTMAS, and leave the office with your helper and the trolley.

"...Did you hear Kyuubey?" Yuma asks as the both of you step into the elevator. "He was actually purring! A-and he was saying something weird, about how it feels as if civil war soldiers are living under his skin..."

Really? You didn't pick up on that.

At least he sounded happy, that's the important thing!

MAXIMUM CHRISTMAS!

[1/2]
>>
>>22281768

Minutes later, you find Murderface exactly where Mami said she'd be: in her quarters, which is next door to Mami's own. You gave her door a good knocking, and pulled it open when you heard no reply. For a moment - as you looked about her bare, spartan room, devoid of anything except for a dresser and a bed - you thought it was empty, until you saw her sitting in the corner, knees pulled up to her chest, staring at nothing.

You take a moment to center yourself, before taking Murderface's presents from Yuma's arms. You tell her quietly that you'll have to do this one on your own. She readily agrees, and says that she'll wait for you outside.

She closes the door behind you, and you make to approach her.

You are barely able to before Murderface suddenly speaks, her gaze swivelling towards you.

"What do you want."

Not a question, more of a challenge, albeit a tired one. But dangerous, nonetheless.

How do you proceed?

You've...well, you've always considered Murderface your friend, even though she will say otherwise (and she has, most of the time). But you never could really stop feeling a bit uneasy with her, which is hilarious, considering that you can spend all day with a bunch of Culexus and not feel the slightest bit off. Sure, Murderface is a bit better now, being in Kharn's retinue, worlds away from the Girl A that had always been an ordeal to be around with - but there was always this danger, an underlying sense of threat hanging around the girl. Killing Intent, or something like that. It just sets your teeth at edge.

You try to ignore this as you brazenly stride over to her corner and insinuate yourself into her personal space as annoyingly and as blatantly as you can, plopping yourself on the floor beside her, so close that your legs are touching. She recoils at the first contact, and tries to squirm away, but you've trapped her against the wall, already. She puts up a token resistance, but finally sighs in surrender.

It's then that you drop her bag of wrapped presents in her lap. Which she grunts at, because it's pretty heavy, with the bottles of Kong and all. But part of that grunt is...well, surprise.

"What's this?" She asks, pulling out the wrapped items. Staring at them in wonder. "...A jacket? And...whisky?"

"Christmas presents!" You answer, grinning. "Got the others theirs, too. Wanted to hand them in personally, since you fatheads cancelled my Secret Santa and everything." In a spurt of bravery, you throw your arm around her shoulders. "Merry Christmas, Murderface!"

[1/2]
>>
>>22282569

She is silent for a moment, seemingly stunned. She doesn't even throw off your arm, that's how much she's poleaxed by your generosity.

"...But I didn't get you anything..." She murmurs after a long while, turning to look at you. Her purple eyes almost glowing from behind her glasses in the dim light.

"Aw, nevermind that!" You wave off her protests. "Just trying to spread some Christmas cheer for my friends and all! Just, uh, don't drink the Kong all in one sitting, s'all I ask. It's tasty, and I think you'll like it, but take it slow, alright?"

Murderface nods at this, still surprised. More silence, and then...

"...I'm sorry for...being difficult." She lowers her head, seemingly unable to stare you in the eye. "Mami told me that I should apologize when I could. It's hard. I don't think I can apologize to the other one." She must mean Sayaka. "But I'm sorry, Kyoko. And...thank you."

...Huh. And she called you by name, now. Not 'idiot', or 'cretin', or 'fuckface'.

You grin at her, before playfully ruffling her hair. Telling her that so long as you're friends, she can always count on you to forgive her, and to give her presents whenever it's necessary.

"...I'd like that."

And you spend a rare moment there, with the most tortured, most haunted, and arguably the most broken friend you've got.

You leave her in her quarters, just as she'd fallen asleep hugging the sweater to her. Leaning against the wall, possessively clutching the garment to her chest.

[2/3]
>>
>>22282578

"S-sempai!" Yuma, still in her reindeer costume, comes up to you just as you close the door to Murderface's quarters behind you. "D-did she hurt you, or something? I could've sworn I heard yelling--"

You blink at her, before shaking her head, chuckling. Nah, that was just you laughing. But Murderface has her present, so all's well.

"O-oh. I see." Yuma nods. "T-then, it's only Miss Sayaka left, right?"


Yeah, that's right. Sayaka, and just one more.

"E-eh? Who...?"

You rummage in the bags left in the trolley, before bringing out what looks like a a shoebox, heavily taped together. You prise open the lid, reaching inside - before turning around to place a small, round object in Yuma's hands.

"Wah...! It's...it's..." Yuma's voice has never sound so feminine, despite the vox mangling her words. "W-what is it, sempai?"

It's a tortoise! A sulcata tortoise, to be exact - or at least, what Hibiki told you. A small yearling. It's relatively low-maintenance, so long as Yuma gets her the water she needs, good sunlight, and grass for food.

"S-Sempai..." It's then that you hear it, a crack in her voice. You carefully give her helmet a gentle knock as you hug her close with one arm.

She shouldn't cry inside her helmet, you tell her as she clutches the tortoise to her chest, carefully with her padded gloves, her shoulders shaking slightly. It'll get all stuffy inside.

You wait until she's calmed down, before letting her go on her way, back to the Culexus. Telling her that it's up to her now, to spread MAXIMUM CHRISTMAS to the rest of her sisters. You'd want to be there, too, but you have to take care of some business first.

"I'll..I'll do my best, sempai." Yuma's voice, still shaky from all the crying she'd done, has a smile in it at least. "T-thank you. I'll make sure to take care of him!"

>>
>>22282598

It could be a her, you tell her. Hibiki wasn't all sure herself.

"W-well, whatever! A-anyway, see you, Sempai! And Merry Christmas!"

You wish her the same, and you make your way out of the Officio once you've decided that you've waited long enough.

You get to your apartment - well, your and Sayaka's apartment - and it's with a tired sigh that you step through the threshold. It's nighttime already, and the MAXIMUM CHRISTMAS that had sustained you through the day had more or less left you a fatigued, hollow husk. But there is still a spark left, enough to deliver to one last person. The most important person, in fact.

"Hey." You say, grinning your trademark grin, just as she comes to greet you with a smile of her own.

"Hey yourself." She says, trying to look displeased, and utterly failing to do so. She steps forward, and you make to give her the presents you've bought for her - but she sets them aside to pull you into her arms. Hugging you tightly, enough to hurt, enough to feel her warmth on yours.

And she apologizes like she has never apologized before. She didn't mean to make you angry - she just didn't want to be reminded that this may be your last Christmas together. That if you simply work through the holiday, it'd be just a normal day, and she wouldn't have to deal with the thought of losing you - or you being on your own. After all, who'd take care of you?

You remark, then, that it was incredibly selfish of her to do that. She even got the rest of your friends to play along, and that really jimmied your jimbobs.

She's just scared, she says. Scared of losing someone she obviously doesn't deserve. What if the Universe had finally wizened up and decided to take you away from her? What if some sort of karmic balance had finally been tallied, and it was discovered that Miki Sayaka did not deserve being with Sakura Kyoko?

It was when we were told Kharn escaped from the silent room.
I think that Yuma is the Culexus that survived. Introducing a named character only to kill them offscreen and replace them with an OC bad form.

What if--

You silence her with a kiss, a gentle one. Before grinning and bumping foreheads with her, a soft tap that she nevertheless winces from.

It's not good to talk about a lot of what ifs, you say, speaking her words back to her. Not with what the both of you do.

You're just as scared as her, but that doesn't mean it's alright to be scared in advance.

You'll be careful, just as she would, and fight as hard to stay alive for another Christmas. And you will have another Christmas. And if the worst came to worst, well...then whoever's gone ahead will have to sit their ass down and wait patiently for the other, right?

"Stupid." Sayaka laughs, tears trickling down her cheeks. "Stupid Kyoko-chan."

You smile at this, and make to pull her close again - but suddenly remembering your present. You take the one from the bag and give it to her. Sniffling, she looks at the package curiously, before tearing it open.

"...W-what? Battle...battle panties...?"

Is Yuma the last remaining Culexus?

Does Pinky moonlight in the human world often, or did our MAXIMUM CHRISTMAS bring her out.

And did Kyouko get MAXIMUM LEWD from Sayaka for her MAXIMUM CHRISTMAS present?

>>22283183
THIS IS A CRIME AGAINST MEGUCA, DECULTURE.
Culexus-Hikis seem like the biggest sweeties despite being the most dangerous to their friends.
Why couldn't Kyouko have gotten them some board games? QQ

What is that?

>>22283317

Hikikomoris. Culexus are kind of separated and secluded by necessity, making them Hikikomoris in a sense.

>>22283317
Short for Hikikomori, google it.
>>
>>22283317
Shorthand of "Hikikomori".

I'm still worried about those Pineapple Salad Flags that got raised.
We should have gotten Malal something else.

i kinda liked the eventual ending. its been years since i have seen/read it though.

Fuck you, Motoko was awesome.

We always have a choice. This isn't some VN where the paths are hard-coded into the program.
It's up to the players whether they can handle that choice or not.

Those death flags were already raised way before. Malal is already dead, Kharn already got told that Murderface would kill her, and Mami has a golden weapon.

Just because a deathflag is raised doesn't mean we can't avoid it. Pretty much the only one that can't be saved is the one who's already dead: Malal.

I don`t even remember the eventual ending just that the Maingirl had some bipolar issues and we are somehow supposed to like her.

The whole cast was fucking annoying and had pretty much nothing redeeming about them. Oh and god help us all if there actually is someone on this globe who could identify himself with the retarded MC.
>>
>>22283794

and even then there is the possibility that Malal put herself inside some other unfortunate girl's soulgem, only the most powerful Culexus could do that.

it kind of reminds me of this one movie where some ghost... person, jumps around hijacking bodies and eventually gets tricked in to a hopeless situation.

we'll see when we get to that point in the story.

goodnight!

>>22283803

The anime was shit, yah. Ken's never had a good anime adaptation.

The manga was pretty decent though.
