You let out a slow breath as you watch Ahriman's ashen, blank-faced horde begin to march toward you - their neat, disciplined ranks bringing their weapons to bear. Weapons that, while resembling the kind bestowed upon a Magical Girl upon the moment of her contract, looked infinitely more dangerous, infinitely more threatening than the actual thing.

Because instead of the usual Magical Weaponry that gleamed and glittered and shone with a Magical Girl's resolve - the weapons that Ahriman's army now held in their hands only radiated hate. Hate twisted and turned into an empty, soulless, murderous rage. At least the Golden Weapons, for all the insanity they could put their users through, they still carried within them the vitality of the spirits that dwelled inside them. Not hollowed out to their core and filled with mindless fury, deformed into things that bristled with bloody spikes and bled crimson smoke.

Corrupted. That was the word you were looking for. Corrupted.

Just like everything in this fucking place.

Just like you.

>>37924495

"Let's do this fast," You tell the remnants of your Kill-Team as you pull your teleportation beacon from your Shield and activate it with a slap. An icon of what looks like a shrieking daemon's skull with wings flashing briefly on the display before being replaced by a ten-second countdown. "You guys hold off Ahriman's groupies until Sayaka gets here. Tiny Pete's on his way, let him take the worst of whatever they can throw at you."

Mami tears her eyes away from Ahriman's horde of magic-wielding zombies long enough to turn towards you. "And what about you, Chiaki-san?"

You turn to look at Mami, just in time to avert your gaze from the sudden manifestation of witch-lightning exploding into corrupted reality in front of the advancing horde. Tiny Pete's teleportation flare, no doubt - in a few moments, it'll explode, bringing forth a monstrosity of steel and hate that you've grown to be fond of. A monstrosity that will soon be crushing your enemies underneath its heavy tread.

"I'm going to try and keep a promise for a change," You growl before taking to the air again, your wings trailing cold crimson fire, each feather ablaze and screaming the screams of the damned dead. "Failing that, well, I'm taking Ahriman's fucking skull."

Mami looks up at you for a moment, before smiling as she summons her rifles once more, one in each hand and four ringing her in a protective ring.. "...Go get 'em, Chiaki-san. We're all counting on you."

Wendy, on the other hand, merely gives you a look, before turning back towards the fight about to commence. Her knife - and what appears to be a beam saber of some sort - coming alive in her hands. "...Good hunting, Kong."'

[1/2]
>>
>>37924505

And with that, you soar skyward, the spicy cinnamon-reek of the warp's cursed air filling your nostrils, filling your lungs as your wings bring you above the horde. Your sights set on Ahriman, who seemed to have divined your intention and had taken to the air herself, her own angelic white wings gracefully keeping her aloft with slow, lazy beats. In stark contrast to your demonic, malevolent own.

"MATSUDA!" She screeches at you again, spitting your name like a curse. The staff energized with killing black lightning as she points it toward you. In response, you bring out Muramasa - the weapon growing cold in your grasp - and you blink as the blade catches on fire. Black fire, tinged with purple. Kirika's trademark cackle whispering in your ear.

+ I've always wanted to kill a god, + Her pulse is a metallic hiss of a sword being drawn out of a sheathe. + Present company excepted, I suppose she'll have to do. +

+ What about Oriko? + You ask her, alarmed, and for a moment you feel hesitation war against clear, blunt bloodthirst. The former winning after a brief second's worth of indecision.

+ ...Yes. Yes, Oriko. I remember her. Yes. I remember. + Kirika growls. + You know what I meant, Murderface. We hurt her enough to get Oriko back from her. Yeah. That's what I meant. +

Right. Fine. So long as she understands. You want to make sure you're both on the same page, here--

[TELEPORTATION COMPLETE].

A loud, bassy thump - followed by an ear-splitting whine of discharging plasma and broken witch-lightning - and chaos erupts below as your robot buddy arrives on the scene, blanketing the entire area in a cloud of dust, as well as throwing the rigid formation of Ahriman's Rubricae into disarray. This is then quickly followed by the sudden eruption of what sounds like artillery fire - loud, thunderous, booming. Each discharge enough to send shockwaves of pressure radiating outwards.

[2/3]
>>
>>37924519

And if that's not enough, the distinctive whine of high-caliber twinned gatling guns spooling - and then their unmistakable roar as they open fire - reaches your ears, twinned with the melody of empty brass cartridges raining on cement tile.

Jesus Christ. What the fuck did Misaka bolt onto Tiny Pete? Did 'Mystery Mode' mean turning the ten-foot tall robot into a walking artillery platform? What?

You shake your head, putting the ongoing melee below out of your mind as you focus on Ahriman. The winged sorceress also somewhat taken aback by the violence taking place below the both of you, but visibly steeling herself to finish the task at hand. Two commanders about to kill each other in the skies as their subordinates wage war below in the dust and the dirt.

+ You should have let me kill you, + Ahriman pulses in a jagged, ragged screech - anything shouted here would have immediately been eclipsed by the deafening gunfire below. + Look at what you've become. A mockery of what it is to be a Magical Girl. A blasphemy given a revenant's wings. A nothing. + The staff crackles in her hand. + I'll finish what I started. Here and now, Matsuda, I'll-- +

+ Shut up. + You reply smoothly, pointing the burning length of Muramasa at her. Cutting her off. + No more second chances, Ahriman. I gave you one, and you used it to turn my fucking costume into a cocktail dress. + You bare your teeth at her in an almost feral snarl. + I fucking LIKED my costume the way it was. No more second chances. I'm going to KILL you, and I'm taking Oriko with me. +

[3/4]
>>
>>37924542

A cold smile curls Ahriman's lips, and she spreads her arms wide. + Come, then. Let me see your resolve, Chiaki Matsuda. Let me see how the Angel Slayer Reborn fights.

You are a Magical Girl, and you're going to finish on your terms, one way or another.

How do you proceed?

You decide to charge her then, seeking to play out this airborne duel up close. Everything you've seen from her mostly involves the snarling Prophet throwing killing energy in the form of beams, projectiles and forked lightning - which means there's a decent chance of her opening with a long-range attack, to try and kill you from afar. You getting right in her face would hopefully get her off-balance long enough for you to do...well, something. Just what that something is, you're not sure what yet. ...You'll think of something for sure. You always do.

And so, wings screaming bloody murder, Muramasa burning in your grasp - you send yourself hurtling towards Ahriman with a single beat of the skeletal pinions jutting out from your shoulderblades. One single beat enough to erase your perception of the world around you as you're propelled through the air in supersonic speeds - no, faster than that, faster than you have words for. Faster than Sayaka, faster than Kharn. Faster than the death that comes from the barrel of a gun.

One single beat of your wings is all it takes.

And it gives you one single split-second to relish the look of surprised dread on Ahriman's face before you strike.

The sound of a Golden Weapon smashing into another is a sound you'll never forget. You've heard it before, back during your sparring session with the Betrayer - but it was, admittedly, drowned out by the roar of chainteeth and gauntlet servos. With neither of those present here, and the tectonic thunder of the gunfire below too muted to even matter, the sound is as clear as day.

It sounds - and there's no other way to put it - like a goddess dying. The death-scream of broken, murdered divinity, clearly audible in the bell-clang of crashing, clashing metal. It is also loud enough to briefly eclipse not only the roar of battle below you, but also the ever-present rumble of the Akashic Realm's turbulent skyscape.

[1/2]
>>
>>37925961

This sound is then repeated, over and over, as you press your attack - cutting and cleaving with Muramasa as Ahriman, to her credit (and to your mounting irritation) not only manages to block your first blow but all the other ones after that, with the consummate skill of a quarterstaff master. The Golden Staff turning into a whirling blur of black-streaked gold in her hands as she deflects the bite of your golden blade.

+ Someone must've trained her, + Kirika muses as Ahriman tries to break away, her wings beating frantically to try and get some breathing room between the both of you. You don't let her, your wings snapping taut and boosting you forward, sending you once more into stabbing range with the Prophet. The curdled sky shaking again as two godlike weapons are smashed into each other once more. + Self-defense with a staff, but nothing of offense - not from her movements at least. You're not going to get the staff out of her hands, though, that much is clear. +

+ Any suggestions, then? + You grit your teeth as a particularly nasty block from Ahriman very nearly jars the Muramasa from your grasp, the sheer force of it coursing up your wrist, arm and shoulder in a painful electric crackle. + Unless it's to chop her fucking head off, which is looking really tempting at the moment but probably not what we want. +

Kirika is silent for a moment, before she replies with a snarl. + Knock her out of the sky. Clip her wings, get her down on the ground, and she won't be able to do anything else. + It's here that she chuckles, low and slow. + Or you could just let me take control. Let me do it. +

What do you do?

[]Go with Kirika's plan. Knock Ahriman out of the sky with any means possible.
[]Allow Kirika to take over. Maybe the crazy bitch has an idea of her own.
[]Stop time with your Shield. You have to get the staff out of her hands somehow.

Noir quest is so convoluted and different from the source material that have no idea what you guys are going to wind up with in the end. its all kind of edge for the edge god at this point.

what I can tell you is that homura became a demon after awakening as a witch most of her facaulties. The only other character to show shreds of humanity from beyond the witches veil was kirika, both cases were borne of love for another. In kirika's case, oriko, in homura's case, madoka..

It's this honest villification and destruction of homura and madoka's connection, communication, and love for one another thats kept me at arms length from these threads.

IIRC that was relating to Sayaka.
>>
>>37927798
Exactly. We let Sayaka go on her own to do something by herself that we would have ordinarily been insane to let her attempt. I think that may have saved both of them - even if it sucks to BE them.

I'm such a fucking stupid optimist.

If kyouko wasn't witched when sayaka got to her, it shouldn't really matter how hurt she was. Keep the gem safe, keep the gem clear and she should be fine

>>37927903
This is a good point. Maybe Kyouko is FUBAR and that's why Sayaka is borderline despair, but her soul gem is still good.

>>37927965
>>37927903

Or maybe Sayaka chose to save Kyouko at the expense of someone else important to Kyouko, and it's putting an immense strain on their relationship. In addition to the horrific injuries, that is.

Keep in mind that using magic darkens your gem, and it is highly likely that regeneration and such would kick in while injured and use magic.

Probably used quite a bit of magic during her fight and a lot more while fighting demons before that as well.

I mean what you think I mean. The red culexus is Erebus. She died, but did Wendy and Midori, blessed lady and golden weapon fuckery can easily bring megucas back from the dead. The change in the rank can also be explined by this.
The main reason I think RC is Erebus is the fact she is an ardent beliver in Ahriman and the whole flame theme (Remember Erebus is based in that Cthugha girl from Nyarulko)

You decide go with Kirika's plan. It seems doable enough - and admittedly one with the most amount of sense, which is surprising considering who it's coming from. Bring the fight down to the ground and the fight evens out no matter who you're fighting - whether it's an Eversor hopped up on battle stimulants, or a winged Prophet with a Golden Weapon in her hands

It's with a snarl, then, that you crash Muramasa against Ahriman's staff again - but instead of simply drawing it back for another cut, you lock it against its fellow Golden Weapon in a crackling, grinding clinch. Ahriman blinks at this, seemingly stunned - before grinning wildly, all teeth on show. Her eyes going completely black.

+ Your first and last mistake, Chiaki Matsuda. +

Witch-lightning EXPLODES out of the Golden Staff, crimson-edged forks of searing black electricity - and you scream in undeniable, excruciating torment as they make the split-second journey from Golden Weapon to Golden Weapon, the two forming an impromptu conduit with you as the destination. Prickling crimson light bursts inside your clenched-shut eyes as the cursed electricity courses through you, frying - no, COOKING - you from within. The scent of your own burning flesh and hair filling your nostrils, coating your tongue with the acrid taste of smoke.

+ This is how you fall, Angel Slayer. + Ahriman's pulse is a sneering thing, the ardent seething hubris coming off of her in waves. + This is how you fail everyone who's counted on you. Suffer, Matsuda. Suffer as I have--+

Even with your own vision reduced to dull smears of migraine-bright color - even with your body rendered insensate, your nerve endings fried by the spike-sharp torrents of malevolent warp-energy still being forced through it - you manage to grab her by the throat with one gloved hand, while still keeping your grip on Muramasa by the other. Silencing the Prophet as you pull her into a killing embrace.

[1/2]
>>
>>37928447
Ok, I give you that, but I'm still convinced she is who I think she is. No other option makes sense to me.
>>
>>37928475
I'll be disappointed if you turn out to be right. I like Erebus.but the RC is just an outright boring arrogant bitch.
>>
>>37928475
I thought Ahriman outright said a thread or two ago that the RC was Kyouko's blood?
>>
>>37928449

Take her down. Clip her wings. Bring her down to the fucking ground where she belongs.

"Suffering?" You hear yourself whisper tenderly into her ear. "You don't know the fucking meaning of the word."

Half-blind, half-deaf and half-paralyzed - you twist the both of you into a spiraling dive, before spreading your wings to their fullest extent and beating them once. Exactly once.

And once, as you've found out, is enough.

The ground SLAMS into the both of you with a thundercrack of force, before shattering with a gunshot-loud explosion of tile and cement - and it's no exaggeration that you feel several of your bones break at the moment of impact alone. Even the body of a Magical Girl - even one as fucked up as yours - has its limits, and forcing yourself into a power dive only to crash into solid cement is probably somewhere along the lines of deliberate suicide. Or at least, sheer bloody-minded stupidity.

...In any case, this is probably the worst you've ever felt, ranking as one of the most painful events you've ever had the pleasure of going through. Very nearly outstripping Pinky's little torture session after your ratification.

But as fucked up as you feel, Ahriman - who you'd forced to take the brunt of the fall at the very last moment - should be significantly more fucked up than you. Your vision returning as blurry, crimson-tinged reality, you look to find this a reality: the Prophet is a bloodied, unconscious wreck in the middle of the crater the both of you made in your suicidal crash. Where she had a pair of angelic wings, only one now remained, with the other having snapped off right at the largest joint in the impact.

A fallen angel in all but name, brought down by the Devil herself.

You look down on your own hand. Muramasa is still there - the usually pristine blade now marked with soot and a hundred dents, most likely from being bashed against the staff again and again. Not like it matters, though - you can probably have those buffed out or something. It's not your concern at the moment.

Your concern is the Golden Staff. Still held tightly in Ahriman's - no, Oriko's - hands, the thing looks almost harmless, like some sort of costume prop for Halloween or a stage play. But you know that's never really the case with these fucking things.

What do you do?

Incubator tech still aplies; don't forget Kyosuke
>>
>>37929626
Incubator tech only works as well as it does on Meguca because they already gave up their human bodies. It's relatively trivial to regrow a missing limb or whatever on a Meguca because that limb is already an ersatz substitute.

I don't know that that technique can be applied safely or sanely to a human being,

>>37929715
Good point.

I'm not saying that it can't happen, just that we probably shouldn't take it for granted that it's a thing that can happen.

>>37929717
Incubator tech sure, but Venenum magic is totally different. Look at all the crazy shit the 13th cooked up with animals.
>>
>>37929767
I agree with you, that is why I said we just cut the hand; it's a safety measure: if we can reatach it (wich I'm still optimistic given a good doctor can reatach and give minimal functionality to a severed digit) or regrow it all the better. If we can't do it, is just a hand, people live with that (It would make her even more Moe if I'm not mistaken)

>>37929845
Or we can just send her over to the Fourth for a bitching chainsaw hand.

or we get Strauss to give her a witch hand.

You look down at the downed Prophet for a long moment - before switching Muramasa to your right hand, in order to draw your Desert Eagle from your Shield with your left. As much as you're tempted to just walk on over, kick the staff out of Ahriman's hands and then call it a day, you've just had about enough of shit coming back to bite you in the ass just because you were too eager to get things over with.

No one would blame you for that, though. The suicide dive really worked you over something fucking wicked. Even your wings didn't escape - once vital and taut despite their clear, apparent lack of muscle, they now hang slack against your back, a disconcertingly heavy sensation there.

"Fool me once, shame on you," You grumble underneath your own blood-tinged breath as you advance slowly, your heeled feet crunching crushed gravel and tile with every step. "Fool me twice, I shoot all your fucking limbs off, and send you home in a bag."

Thankfully, even with your slow, careful approach, Ahriman doesn't seem to change her mind on staying as nothing more than an unconscious and bloody heap on the floor when you finally stand over her, the fallen Prophet not moving a single inch. Not even when you use the tip of Muramasa to lever her fingers open, to prise the Golden Staff out of her grasp.

A few moments more, and the pillar of cobalt-flecked gold finally rolls free from the Prophet's body. A Chosen, finally seperated from the Weapon that had twisted her, and brought her into this fate.

A fate that would've seen her dead if it hadn't been you she was fighthing.

Putting the Desert Eagle back into your Shield, you reach over to pick up the staff off the ground. Your fingers briefly curling in hesitation a moment before they touched the smooth, ornately-carved haft - before finally curling around the Golden Weapon to lift it into your grasp.

...

Strange. It...feels like an ordinary stick, really. Or a metal staff. Nothing special, a bit on the heavy side, and of course there's all the gold. Nobody forgets about the fucking gold.

The spirit inside not even bothering to let off a sense of malevolence, or even unease. Absolutely nothing. Zero. If you didn't see or feel this particular tool used to such deadly effect, you'd be hard-pressed to believe if it actually was a Golden Weapon.

But...this is it, then? The fifth Golden Weapon you've collected? Out of a possible fucking twenty?

Just how fucking long did it take, anyway? A month? Two months? Two fucking years? Ten years, probably. Or ten lifetimes. Either way, you feel every single fucking day of it.

Just as you make to shove the Golden Staff into your Shield and contact the others - to tell them that the mission is finally over - is when you hear a voice. A voice choked with pure, depthless anger. A voice that, despite having been made hoarse by too much screaming - or in her case, roaring in bloodthirsty rage - manages to say a name with crystal clarity.

One single name.

"...Akemi. Homura."

And you turn slowly to face your Equerry, Miki Sayaka.

Her face set in shadow, revealing only the pinpricks of crimson light where her eyes should be.

Her once-white cape now a dirty, ragged scarf the color of dried blood.

A sword in her hands - Blueberry Cheesecake Brownie - with the blade seemingly having snapped in half by something else. Despite this, however, you can make out the faint outline of another blade around it, longer and much more menacing, extending beyond the damaged weapon. Something the size of a greatsword, or a claymore.

And the warp is...boiling around her. Twisting in her wake like waves torn apart in a violent storm.

Your best friend's Soul Gem hanging from a chain on her neck.

...Shit.

"...Prepare to defend yourself."
>>
>>37930802
If she's got any fucking sense at all she'll stay in there and keep her head down.

Magical Juggernaut Heather Crunch versus Magical Ascetic Valentina Tenko III: It Takes Two to Tenko

Once more, the Soul Temperer leads me outside the Officio. Rather than transporting me to the Valley of Eight Million Gods (sans ME, HAHA!), she leads me back to the waterfall cave, where I TRIUMPHED over those nefarious Nakajimas after they interrupted my meditation! I sidestep the waterfall at the last second, though. While she has been VERY helpful today, I am NOT getting drenched and wringing my clothes out in front of the Soul Temperer! I do NOT need her LURIDLY LEWD GAZE LEERING at my body -again-!

SPEAKING OF, she has her sword unsheathed and is using it as a torch to illuminate our passage. And she somehow appears to be completely dry as well. ā€œSo, Truth-Seeker,ā€ she begins, as we follow the stream deeper into the cave, ā€œwhat did you learn about love?ā€

ā€œI have acquired no fewer than SIX different interpretations!ā€ I declare with no small amount of pride. ā€œFIRST! Love is SUPPOSEDLY like a potluck dinner, where everybody IS SUPPOSED TO pitch in, and where SOME may take more than their fair share from others, but is APPARENTLY worth the effort.ā€

ā€œInteresting.ā€

ā€œTWO!ā€ I continue, not feeling even the most INSIGNIFICANT IOTA OF EMBARASSMENT about the current topic, ā€œIt is something one must INVEST in. THREE! It is a treasure GREATER IN VALUE than ANY OTHER treasures. FOUR! You have to feed it like a FIRE for it to comfort you with LIGHT and WARMTH.ā€ Not that I need any warmth besides the BLAZING FLAMES OF MY WINNING SPIRIT! ā€œFIVE! ā€˜Love may even bloom on the battlefieldā€™-ā€œ

ā€œYesss!ā€ the Soul Temperer abruptly hisses, punching at the air as though triumphant. Her sudden excitement briefly crashes my train of thought. BUT THE CRUNCH BRAIN IS SOON BACK ON TRACK!

ā€œAnd the sixth is that itā€™s like fast food: unhealthy, but it tastes good, so youā€™ll keep wanting more,ā€ I finish, folding my arms over my chest.

The Soul Temperer nods her head in satisfaction. ā€œMuch like the spider, you have opened all eight of your eyes,ā€ she cryptically tells me. Does this have something to do with Berry? ā€œSo, Seeker of Enlightenment,ā€ she continues, ā€œWhat do you see with your eyes full of love?ā€

ā€œAbout what I just said?ā€ I ask.

ā€œIndeed,ā€ she replies, suddenly coming to a stop. The Soul Temperer looks at me from over her shoulder, and asks, ā€œWhat did you learn from them?ā€

I clear my throat and keep my voice calm and steady, speaking with NO embarrassment when I tell her, ā€œThe testimonies I gathered demonstrate that a lot of -other people- seem perfectly content with it.ā€

ā€œAnd so?ā€

...I hope itā€™s too dark for her to see how red my face is right now. ā€œIt is POSSIBLY not as heinous as I had originally envisioned,ā€ I admit begrudgingly.

A slight smile forming on her lips, the Soul Temperer speaks once more. ā€œSo will you allow yourself to pursue what your heart desires?ā€

ā€œNOT WITH SOMEONE LIKE NAKAJIMAAAA!ā€ I shout, my denial echoing through the caves. ā€œI simply CANNOT allow it to happen!ā€œ I stamp my foot as a FIRM SHOWING of how much I DISLIKE this DISCUSSION!

And yet her smile only ā€“grows-! ā€œIf she is undesirable,ā€ the Soul Temperer states, ā€œperhaps you should hunt a new crocodile in the river of desire.ā€

I stare at her for few seconds, trying to process what she said. ā€œWhat?ā€ I ask her. Is this about Winters now?

ā€œI said you should put your eggs in another basket.ā€

I shake my head at her. ā€œOnce again, I cannot grasp what it is that you are saying.ā€

The Soul Temperer sighs. ā€œWhat I mean is,ā€ she explains, speaking slowly and carefully, ā€œhave you tried falling in love with somebody else who is not a scoundrel?ā€

ā€œI WOULD if I COULD!ā€ I growl! I am EXCEEDINGLY UNCOMFORTABLE with this line of questioning! ā€Can we discuss this ā€“later-? I want to get to todayā€™s TRAINING already!ā€

>Remove Kyouko's Soul Gem from Sayaka's possession
>Entrust to Mami or Wendy (I'd say Mami but the more paranoid would probably rather go with Wendy)
>Evac everyone else. Mami, Wendy, Oriko, Tiny Pete, Kyouko's Soul Gem, get them all out of here
>Fight Sayaka.
>>
>>37931067
That is the assumption. Its probably a bitch to recorporiate a meguca but there shouldn't be any issues so long as it doesn't get damaged during the fight. Should probably get blue to hand it off to someone if she really wants to pull this shit and has at least a shred of mental competency left.
>>
This seemingly snaps the Soul Temperer out of whatever possessed her, as she recalls why we are here. ā€œVery well then.ā€ The Soul Temperer turns around and marches on, leading us through the cavern where I fought with the Nakajimas the other day. Itā€™s remarkably barren, showing no signs of the struggle that took place. ā€œIt is interesting that you mentioned trust earlier, Seeker of Enlightenment,ā€ she explains, taking us through a tunnel and into a different, larger chamber. ā€œTodayā€™s trials are focused on cementing and reinforcing the ability to trust other people, such as myself.ā€

ā€œI donā€™t know if I ā€“should- be trusting you like that,ā€ I reply, my voice full of SKEPTICISM and UNEASE.

ā€œYour words wound me, Seeker of Enlightenment!ā€ the Soul Temperer exclaims theatrically. ā€œI only want what is best for your development.ā€ She uses the flame from her blade to light a row of torches along the wall, and revealsā€¦ an empty room.

ā€œI donā€™t see how GROPING me is ā€˜best for my development,ā€™ā€ I mutter. This seems to give her pause, and she lets her shoulders slump.

ā€œā€¦it isnā€™t,ā€ she admits with a sad sigh, sheathing her weapon. ā€œThough the oak tree has grown mighty from a small sapling, it cannot escape its roots.ā€ The Soul Temperer turns around to face me, though her eyes are downcast as though she cannot bear to look at me. ā€œNor can it deny how it yearns for the light of the sun.ā€ Clasping her hands together, she seemingly forces herself to look me in the eyes, an earnest, hopeful smile on her face. ā€But please believe me when I say that I sincerely wish to help you grow into an even more resplendent soul.ā€

ā€¦Maybe itā€™s just the lighting, but getting a good look at her now, she kind of looksā€¦

ā€œVERY WELL!ā€ I shout, pushing such thoughts from my mind as I grant her my pardon. ā€œFor your aid earlier, I shall extend to you the benefit of the doubt!ā€œ

what should we expect from Oktavia Requiem?

The Soul Tempererā€™s expression brightens immediately. ā€œYou are as forgiving as you are radiant, Seeker of Enlightenment!ā€ she exclaims, clasping my hands. ā€œI shall not disappoint you!ā€ And with that rejoicing and sudden invasion of space, she quickly releases me and draws her blade once more. She then stabs it into the ground.

Iā€™m a little disoriented, but Iā€™m ā€“reasonably sure- the ground is actually shaking. The light from the torches flickers and dances as sections of the floor sink down. What it leaves behind is a long, winding platform of stone SURROUNDED by deep pitfalls!

ā€œThe journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step,ā€ she informs me as the SUDDEN SHIFTING of the earth ceases, prompting her to sheathe her weapon once more. ā€œAnd your first step is to navigate myself to the end of this course unharmed.ā€ The Soul Temperer removes a strip of black cloth from her inventory and covers her eyes with it, tying it at the back to use as a blindfold. ā€œPlease take good care of me,ā€ she adds.

It takes me a moment to figure out whatā€™s going on. This all happened rather quickly, and Iā€™m still reeling fromā€¦ things.

BUT NOTHING CAN STOP THE CRUNCH TRAIN! ā€œHERE WE GO!ā€ I shout, my voice booming through the cave! FIRMLY GRASPING the Soul Tempererā€™s shoulders, I PROPEL her forward onto the small walkway!

>>
>>37931173
We do not, but they sometimes have a tendency to show up from our Shield even when we aren't carrying that particular weapon.
>>
ā€¦Well, THAT particular trust building exercise was an outright DISASTER.

Not MY attempt at the navigation of the maze, mind. I ACED that in SPITE of its twists and turns! No, it was HER run where things went WRONG! I should have suspected as much when she REFUSED to take off the blindfold! I SCREAMED at her to stop, or to at LEAST put me down instead of carrying me like a newlywed, but SHE DID NOT LISTEN!

And her breasts kept smacking me in the face, too! I didnā€™t even realize she ā€“had- breasts!

AND SO, after much apologizing from the Soul Temperer, we return to her room once more. There, she has us sit at the table again. ā€œFor this next exercise,ā€ she says, ā€œI shall tell you two truths about myself, and one falsehood.ā€ She gives a small smile. ā€œYou must guess which one is false.ā€

In spite of what happened earlier, Iā€™m inclined to give her another chance. My mood from before has improved yet again. Maybe itā€™s because of this room. I rather like sitting in this room; seeing weapons on the walls pleases my sense of aesthetics.

It has absolutely nothing to do with the Soul Temperer herself.

ā€œVERY WELL!ā€ I concede. ā€œLet us begin!ā€

Humming a little to herself before she speaks, the Soul Temperer starts us off: ā€œI meditate for at least half an hour every day. I like girls like you who show great spirit. I eat my meat well-done.ā€

I snort. ā€œOBVIOUSLY itā€™s the last one!ā€ I declare. What kind of Eversor takes their meat well done?

ā€œCorrect, Truth-Seeker!ā€ she says, beaming at me. ā€œNow you tell me two truths and one lie about yourself.ā€

Oh, is that how this works? HMMā€¦ After a moment of musing, I present my statement to her: ā€œIā€™ve never fought using an axe or a pole-arm. My favorite songs are STIRRING and HEROIC! And, uhā€¦ I, too, like my meat well done.ā€œ

ā€œIt is the last one that is untrue,ā€ she answers with certainty.

ā€œIndeed!ā€

[5/10]
>>
ā€œNow Iā€™ll go again,ā€ the Soul Temperer says, resting her elbows on the table. ā€œI enjoy light reading and ballroom dancing. Black is my favorite color. I am extremely proficient at making dishes from fruit.ā€

I have to THINK about this one. She -seems- like sheā€™d enjoy doing the first, and does appear to have some affinity for fruit. ā€œIs it the second one?ā€ I query.

ā€œRight again, Seeker of Wisdom,ā€ she praises me, which makes me smile. It almost ā€“feels- like I am closer to understanding her. ā€œItā€™s your turn again.ā€

ā€œI have fled from battles with witches before,ā€ I begin. ā€œI have no fewer than TWENTY different subscriptions to magazines and journals on armaments, armor, and warfare. And I have an authentic M1 Garand automatic rifle.ā€

ā€œI have to say that itā€™s the first one,ā€ the Soul Temperer astutely answers.

ā€œCORRECT! I have NEVER run from a battle against a witch!ā€ I boast, puffing up with pride!

ā€œHow brave!ā€ she cheers, resting her chin on her hands. ā€œNow then, Iā€™ve never gone on a real date before, though I wouldnā€™t mind trying one. I spent a long time wandering alone in exile. And I donā€™t put out on the first date.ā€

Thatā€™s more personal than I expected her to tell me. And itā€™s more difficult than the previous questions. I have no doubt that the last one is true ā€“ no offense intended ā€“ but for that to be true, then the first would have to be false, right? Then again, I was always stood up, so I donā€™t personally know. ā€œThe first one is false,ā€ I tell her.

The Soul Temperer frowns. ā€œIncorrect, Seeker of Enlightenment,ā€ she explains. ā€œIt was the last one.ā€

Oh. Well. Okay then.

ā€œMy turn,ā€ I say, BREAKING the sudden, awkward silence that set in. ā€œI enjoy playing with robot action figures, watching sentai shows and reading about the history of war in my spare time. I am ā€“naturally- bilingual. I have met with people from the First.ā€

ā€œThe first one?ā€ she queries, uncertain.

ā€œNAY! It is, in fact, the last one!ā€ I shout in response.

ā€œTruly? It is their loss,ā€ the Soul Temperer responds. I acknowledge the TRUTHFULLNESS of such a statement by vigorously nodding.

ā€œLetā€™s see,ā€ she continues, leaning forward slightly. ā€œI once replaced someoneā€™s food with acrylic paints. I once spent a day in jail after being caught speeding on the way to an operation. My preferences include both domination ā€“and- submission.ā€

ā€œā€¦I am hoping it is the last one,ā€ I bluntly tell her, hoping she notices my discomfort.

ā€œAlso incorrect,ā€ she replies, though she doesnā€™t look especially displeased. ā€œI did pull such a stunt in the past, and I am very flexible, if you find that appealing in a partner.ā€

Okay, Iā€™m getting seriously creeped out right now. ā€œUh, I never held the position of squad leader for very long. I always called my sword the Eversword. And I like having my personal boundaries RESPECTED.ā€

ā€œIt feels like the first one is the least worthy of you,ā€ she says, failing to move back and give me room.

ā€œAnd yet itā€™s INCORRECT,ā€ I yell, sliding back a little. ā€œI only named my weapon recently after a fit of inspiration.ā€ And youā€™re NOT giving me my space at ALL, Soul Temperer!

ā€œMy turn,ā€ sheā€¦ purrs, her face coming closer and closer, and my face flushes redder and redder. ā€œI have had hundreds of carnal conquests. I am afraid of getting what I want. And I really, -really- like you, Truth-Seeker.ā€

ā€œFIRST!ā€ I shout, as though putting EMPHASIS on it would FORCE it to be the ACTUAL TRUTH!

It FAILS TO WORK! ā€œThat is not correct. The second one is the lie.ā€ She smiles a most SHAMEFUL smile before she gets RIGHT IN MY FACE, her hair brushing against my nose and hot breath tickling my cheek. ā€œI might add that, through those hundreds of experiences, I have learned very much in the way of-ā€

Why is the "what" emphasised instead of the "fuck"?
>>
I SCRAMBLE back away from her, my heart racing and my entire body on FIRE! ā€œI WANT TO KEEP DOING THIS, THIS EXERCISE IS MAKING ME ā€“EXTREMELY- UNCOMFORTABLE, AND I -DONā€™T- WANT TO KEEP DOING THIS!ā€ I SCREAM at the possessed woman in an attempt to return her to her senses. I grab at my soul gem in warning that if she does NOT back off, I will FORCE her to stop this!

Her face falls flat as realization dawns. ā€œā€¦Oh,ā€ she murmurs quietly. Finally, FINALLY she shows some sign of SHAME and REGRET for trying to RAVISH me!

I pick myself up and dust myself off. ā€œI think thatā€™s enough for today,ā€ I state, wiping the sweat off my brow.

The Soul Temperer pouts and protests, ā€œBut I was going to tie your arm to mine for-ā€œ

ā€œNO!ā€ I exclaim, putting my foot down! ā€œI wonā€™t have any more of this until you get a hold of yourself!ā€

Moving away from the table, the Soul Temperer walks toward me and removes her hat. Clutching it to her chest, she prostrates herself on the ground. ā€œA thousand pardons, Truth-Seeker,ā€ she says. ā€œPerhaps I was not ready to seek bonding activities from a book on marriage.ā€

I give the last sentence as much thought as I normally give to her parables. ā€œWhy did you think that would work?ā€ I inquire in exasperation.

ā€œIt should have,ā€ she insists, still prone on the ground. ā€œAnd it would have, if I had the restraint of a squirrel preparing for winter.ā€ She looks up at me, eyes shining with tears. ā€œI was too eager.ā€

ā€¦I have to resist the urge to pat her on the head and tell her everything is okay. Instead, I tell her: ā€œVery well, I magnanimously extend my forgiveness to you. We can train again some other time.ā€

This brings a smile back to her face. ā€œYes. Yes, we can try again,ā€ she says, almost like sheā€™s talking to herself. ā€œI can be patient, now that there are no obstacles in my path.ā€

ā€¦After that cryptic response, I bid her farewell.

The first thing I do upon my departure is go into town. I have several ERRANDS to run, after all. And what better opportunity is there to do so than before actually running? This quaint little town had better be ready for the CRUNCH TRAINā€™S ARRIVAL!

I head out to buy some new clothes and shoes. After I finish with that, I go off to the dry cleaners to drop off the maid uniform. And THEN I do my running. Even if I am in civilian form, I KNOW, with ABSOLUTE CERTAINTY, that I can EFFORTLESSLY do it! Hell, I could do TWICE that much! I must PUSH myself EVEN FURTHER THAN THAT!

Fired up, I break into a sprint!

I realize that I must give the Soul Temperer credit; I DO feel more invigorated than I was this morning. For all her undesirable behavior today, she has still somehow managed to lift my spirits. Perhaps I was too harsh towards her.

ā€¦Okay, only a little bit too harsh. I had to draw the line SOMEWHERE, and that SOMEWHERE is between her face and mine.

And so, eventually, the day draws to a close, and night falls.

BUT HEATHER CRUNCH STILL STANDS! SUCK ON THAT, NATURRRRRE! HAHA!

And BECAUSE I am doing so well, I manage to both finish my runs AND extol my virtues to the LESSER stars in the night sky!

Yes, I have been EXCEPTIONALLY PRODUCTIVE today, to make up for how LETHARGIC I was before! I even worked up a good sweat, too. NOT the unwanted sweat of discomfort, but the GLORIOUS sweat of EFFORT and HARD WORK! THE SWEAT OF CHAMPIONS!

THIS is how I return to my housing. NOT moping around because of loneliness! NOT dragging myself along because Iā€™d been violated! No, I return CONFIDENT and VICTORIOUS! I have SEIZED THE DAY and then SUPLEXED IT INTO SUBMISSION!

I turn the key and throw open the door ā€“ going through the wall is sorely tempting, though ā€“ and finally, FINALLY have time to myself here without having to worry about DESPAIR or VOICES or what have you!

Youā€™re not doing that well at all, said voice grumbles inside my mind. I IGNORE IIIIIIIT!

Now, I should make dinner. A GRAND dinner- no, a FEAST! A FEAST for the return of my INDOMITABLE SPIRIT! And I, Heather Crunch, shall assemble such a feast BY MY OWN TWO HANDS, as I canā€™t rely on someone else to do it like-

ā€œH-heyyy, youā€™re back!ā€

Omake: Surprisingly Good

"So, I finally got a chance to look over your report."

"Mm?"

"Don't talk with your mouth full, Eleanor."

"...Sorry."

"Just nod your head next time. Anyway! The reason you decided to work here is because, and I quote, '[you] wanted to open a candy shop'. Is that correct?"

-nod-

"Am I right in assuming that you have no experience with management, finances, or the other responsibilities necessary for running a small business?"

-nod-

"Good! I was about to get rid of these since I don't need them anymore, but I feel that even if they're a bit outdated, they should be a humong- I mean tremendous asset to you!"

"..."

"Ta-dah! I'm entrusting you with my old textbooks! They're not as good as work experience, but reading these should help prepare you for the real deal!"

"Textbooks?"

"What's wrong?"

"Well, I have to be honest. Textbooks aren't something that I wanted."

"Oh."

"...but they sound like something that I needed. So... thanks. Thanks a lot for giving me these."

"Hmm. Don't thank me just yet. You still have to deal with that Vanus trance-"

"Um..."

"Don't interrupt me, please! You have to deal with that Vanus trance and actually work behind the counter!"

-nod-

"Now then, you were saying?"

"I was told that something was being done about it. That the Warmaster was planning something to deal with that."

"Oh. Well, in that case, you're welcome!"

"Huh?"

"I'll take that thanks now, Eleanor."

"...heh."

"Well! Now that your shift's up and your lunch is finished, you're dismissed for today."

"Thanks for that, too, by the way!"

"Goodbye, then!"

"Goodbye!"

"Don't count on a free lunch in the future!

It might be similar to how "Akemi Homura" came into being during the mission. It's probably not the genuine article, but with all the Akashic realm shenanigans and universal links to the original interacting with grief and weird magic shit, it might be close enough.

The question now, is whether we can beat and talk enough sense into Sayaka to get our Equerry back and force Ultra Mad Blueberry back into the ether.

Remember, above all else: We are not Akemi Homura. We are Chiaki Matuda, and we are getting pretty goddamn sick of this "Akemi Homura" bullshit.

If Sayaka wants to be pissed that we fucked up the mission and almost got her girlfriend killed, that's fine, but only if she's pissed at US. We've made enough horrible mistakes on our own, thank you; leave that bitch's life out of it.

Guys, why are there four figures in the blessed lady mythology instead of five?

Probably has something to do with the big three Christian archangels being Michael, Gabriel, and Lucifer, especially if Homu is one of the Blessed Lady's. Rebellion did it that way, too. Sayaka was Michael and Nagisa was Gabriel, with Homura obviously being Lucifer.

No. We couldnĀ“t possibly predict the result of the battle between red culexus and Kyoko, but considering the damage Kyoko has suffered, we are responsible for leaving her to fight alone. If Sayaka is searching for a culprit, then those are the red culexus and us. We knew it was dangerous to leave Kyoko alone, but did it either way
