  1. 01[18:07] <@GeMshuku> ...THE YEAR IS 20XX--OR IS IT 2XXX--NO IT DEFINITELY ISN'T THAT MIGHT BE A BIT WEIRD
  2. 03[18:08] * Miko_Toyosatomimi is now known as Kasuga_Makoto
  3. 03[18:09] * Mystia_Lorelei is now known as Matsubara_Hotaru
  4. 03[18:09] * ApatheticForestFairy is now known as Hayasaka_Kumiko
  5. 01[18:10] <@GeMshuku> WHATEVER THE CASE, LAST TIME ON: IN THE DEPTHS OF A FIRESTORM, THE MEGUCA FIND THEIR WAY TO SAFETY AMONGST A FUTURE THAT LOOKS GRIM AND IS FILLED WITH NOISE...which brought them to another group of three! They got chummy, but even so, the threat of reality(?) hovers over their heads threateningly...
  6. 03[18:11] * MidorikawaMisao is now known as MarisaKirisame_Guest
  7. 01[18:13] <@GeMshuku> The trio, Nezumi (monochrome), Chiyoko (apparently weird seeming? definitely in armor), and Hitomi (the purple one), regard the scarred trio with acceptance, though a nearly indescernible amount of caution is brought with it, especially when they pressed the issue of Chiyoko being weird...
  8. 01[18:14] <@GeMshuku> ...but on the subject of being weird, they don't seem to be entirely willing to talk about it. Not that they won't, but there's some pretty heavyhanded 'don't talk about this or you're dead' that seemed to dissuade the party enough?
  9. 01[18:17] <@GeMshuku> At the very least, they had agreed on the topic matter of the more mentally stable party helping out!
  10. 01[18:18] <@GeMshuku> BUT THE QUESTION IS, WILL THEY DECIDE TO CONTINUE PRESSING ON THAT ONE SUBJECT, OR CAN WE JUST SKIP TO THE NEXT DAY?
  11. 01[18:31] <@GeMshuku> ...If someone wants to grill, hopefully they remember what happened last session vaguely, or have the desire to catch up and can do so REALLY FAST.
  12. [18:32] <Kasuga_Makoto> Makoto had to take a little time to put things in order, but that topic seemed to be pressing. And important, considering the nature of her visions about the girl... "We have no business telling anyone else about it. And if we're working together...well, there isn't any reason to do so."
  13. 01[18:37] <@GeMshuku> Chiyoko takes a deep breath! "Only if you're really sure. Seriously. Magic has a way of making words slip out. You've all got to like, 100% vow you'll never go there, ever. If it slips unwittingly, it'll go from one person to another, and that's bad."
  14. [18:37] <Hayasaka_Kumiko> "In this state, you'd do better wearing a banner on your head proclaiming to the world about your oddity than trying to hide it with that flimsy cloak of yours." Hayasaka spat out.
  15. 01[18:37] <@GeMshuku> The one wearing the cloak is Hitomi! "Some people don't like weird things, though."
  16. 06[18:38] * Kasuga_Makoto sighs and shakes her head... "I promise that I'll try my best as humanly...or inhumanly possible?"
  17. 01[18:39] <@GeMshuku> She's the one that speaks there, of course. And here! "...Bat wings, if you must know. The cloak is a temporary solution until I find a way to properly hide these things while keeping it stylish."
  18. 01[18:40] <@GeMshuku> Chiyoko thinks...and responds! "Go for inhumanly. ...But, alright...N-Nezumi, all you."
  19. [18:41] <Hayasaka_Kumiko> "Couldn't ya just go live in Akihabara or someplace and join a cosplay cafe? No one would bat an eye." Hayasaka said without a hint of irony.
  20. 01[18:41] <@GeMshuku> Hitomi cackles at this, without a hint of irony.
  21. 01[18:42] <@GeMshuku> Nezumi gives Hitomi a weird look, then sighs regarding Chiyoko. "This is your issue, you know. ...But fine. Chiyoko...is a weird one. While I assume everyone here was recruited in the standard, heavy handed fashion...Chiyoko...wasn't."
  22. 01[18:43] <@GeMshuku> "She only vaguely recalls who she is, in that she's someone who's not a local. ...And that she's magical. And the tsukaima recognize her as...magical."
  23. [18:44] <Hayasaka_Kumiko> "That's probably why her magical signature seems... off. Almost like... you've embraced the corruption." Hayasaka said, as the temperature of her flaming tails dropped once more.
  24. 01[18:45] <@GeMshuku> "...But the tsukaima go through lots of magical girls, as I'm sure you've probably pieced together by now. The recruiter has issues remembering all the faces, and there's instances where even the non-regular recruiters have made a magical girl out of someone."
  25. 01[18:47] <@GeMshuku> "...But Chiyoko? She just is. She was never recruited, she never became magical in her memory, but despite that, she just...is."
  26. [18:48] <Kasuga_Makoto> "...What's that supposed to mean? She can't remember?"
  27. 01[18:49] <@GeMshuku> "It's a spot that defies all attempts to define it. How can someone just suddenly have been magical without any impetus? There's no blank spots in her memory that she's aware of...and there's reason to believe that they weren't even responsible."
  28. [18:50] <Hayasaka_Kumiko> "... Have you checked what color she bleeds?" Hayasaka said with a hint of seriousness.
  29. [18:50] <Matsubara_Hotaru> "...Well, that is interesting. She has no memory loss issue and she doesn't recall being recruited?"
  30. 01[18:51] <@GeMshuku> "That reasoning...would be that there's one thing that she just knows. If the tsukaima see her in a transformed state, they'd know something was up. And she knows that this would be a very bad thing that would result in her death. Sort of like how you know that if you jump off a high cliff into a pile of jagged rocks as a normal human, you die."
  31. 01[18:51] <@GeMshuku> Hitomi speaks up! "She bleeds red. Accidents happen, so we didn't have to test!"
  32. [18:57] <Matsubara_Hotaru> "Well, I bled blue and no one complained!" she jokingly states, not having a whole lot to add overall.
  33. 01[18:58] <@GeMshuku> "Clearly, something happened. But we can't even tell what it IS, sort of doesn't make sense. We never really trusted the tsukaima, and we're not about to doubt Chiyoko...so if they know things, it'll get messy very fast, but. ...But yet, we're trying to find out more about her, which is hard when you've only got a few people to work with, and everything menaces with spikes of death."
  34. [19:00] <Hayasaka_Kumiko> "Well then. We have two detection type specialities here." Hayasaka said, while pulling Kasuga_Makoto in with one of her two tails. "Why don't we go through some trouble to see what troubles await her?"
  35. 01[19:06] <@GeMshuku> "...Go for it, but...don't overdo it, cause magic is still magic either way!" Nezumi seems relieved at the prospect, but of course, a bit cautious because magic. "...Though it makes sense if you'd rather wait for a...more peaceful time? ...We're killing time either way, so do what you want~"

  40. [19:33] <Kasuga_Makoto> "...Are you sure this is...such a good idea?" Makoto blinks and stares right at Kumiko, unsure of what to do... "What I might see may...not be very pleasant."
  41. [19:33] <Hayasaka_Kumiko> "It'd be more unpleasant if we ended up the next day with a knife in our backs, if you get what I"m saying." Kumiko replied with a perfectly straight face.
  42. [19:34] <Kasuga_Makoto> "...You have a point. I just used it to get us here...but if you insist, I'll go ahead with it."
  43. 03[19:34] * MarisaKirisame_Guest is now known as MidorikawaMisao
  44. 01[19:36] <@GeMshuku> "Uh, we won't backstab you if you don't backstab us. No point in it. ...And we don't trust the tsukaima, so it's not like we'll do it for the seeds." Nezumi shrugs! "So they might grant a wish with it. But if THEY do it, well, it probably won't get much done."
  45. [19:37] <Hayasaka_Kumiko> "Eh, I was thinking of making a necklace out of em." Hayasaka admitted.
  46. 01[19:38] <@GeMshuku> Hitomi thinks about it. "...Like wearing a necklace made out of the bones of your enemies, but more acceptable in modern society!"
  47. 06[19:39] * Kasuga_Makoto takes a moment to concentrate. Tapping into her power, once more, she attempts to see their future tied up with these other girls, for good or ill. Specifically, if they will diverge or if their goals intersect. What will Makoto see from this dive into the future?

  49. (THE ANSWER: A SHITTY DICE ROLL THAT MADE MAKOTO RAGEQUIT)
