Meguca 2.0: VS Spot Check!

[19:23] <&GeMshuku> THE YEAR IS 20XX
[19:23] * &Yoshihane_Miyu awakens
[19:23] <&GeMshuku> ...EVERYONE PLAYS FOX.
[19:23] * Mystia_Lorelei wavedash
[19:24] <Kaosukage> Hheeh.
[19:26] <Eirin> Raitaki is playing a priestess too?
[19:26] <Eirin> and stealing my stats
[19:27] <&GeMshuku> It goes without speaking that the party were to gather at 4 PM, in the town square, as Fate had told them to do. (To do otherwise would be both confusing and a bit inconvenient!) As such, the four magical girls of varying temperments and abilities thus did arrive at the town square, likely from different directions!
[19:29] <&GeMshuku> As the rabbit had said, the place was in fact completely barren! People that looked to be heading there had all made strange detours, and thus did the crowd thin. There's a fair amount of girls there, though, but Fate sits on the edge of the town square's big fountain, watching and waiting for the four he had gathered. waving them over with an ear once they arrived!
[19:29] * Kasuga_Makoto casually enters the square, albeit a little timidly, looking around for signs of any new arrivals...she seems to have a slight headache from recently being gifted her powers, but otherwise, all seems well. She's wearing casual clothing, as not to draw attention too much. Even if there was nobody around...
[19:31] * &Yoshihane_Miyu more or less strolls into the town square, weaing a blue one piece summer dress, while carrying a small packet of pet food in her hands. Who knows what's going through her mind, though she nimbly avoids hitting anyone or anything for time being. For some reason she had a screwdriver in her bag too. God knows what that's going to be used for!
[19:32] <Eirin> (( hold on, are we starting already? ))
[19:33] <&GeMshuku> (( W-well, as I was mentioning before, I'd gathered a group of four folk already, and have been pretty much forced to make two different groups, this would be the first. The second will, in a perfect world, play tomorrow! ))
[19:33] <Lily_White> (Wait, who's part of the second group?)
[19:33] <Eirin> (( meh okay. You're okay with that Sakata girl right? ))
[19:33] <&GeMshuku> (( As I've said earlier, you, Eirin, and Rai. And yes! ))
[19:34] <Lily_White> (I was playing Payday 2)
[19:34] <Eirin> (( mmk. ))
[19:34] * Eirin is now known as Sakata_Mori
[19:34] <Kaosukage> (I think I'll make my own charactrer)
[19:34] <Kaosukage> (Is that okay?)
[19:35] <Mystia_Lorelei> Hotaru had carefully entered the square as well. Due to her unforunate transformation, she wore a hat and a big dress to hide both her tail and ears to not gain any attention from random folks and so far it is working. She eventually spots the familiar rabbit and heads her way towards it. "Ah, there you are." she said a bit quietly.
[19:35] <&GeMshuku> ((I--this is kind of late to suddenly do, you know))
[19:37] <&GeMshuku> ((For the time being, it'd be pretty swell if you kept playing Mankan, since otherwise you'd have to write another magical girl on the fly and I'd have to do their recruitment because it wouldn't feel right if I didn't))
[19:38] <Kaosukage> (Okay)
[19:38] <Kaosukage> (Now I just need her sheet)
[19:38] <Sakata_Mori> (( also that Rita girl is going to be in the same party as me? _))
[19:38] <Sakata_Mori> (( I need someone to catch me up on this in PM... ))
[19:38] <&GeMshuku> As the other girls come and go...well, mostly go, Fate addresses the four that had gathered! "Yesterday was a strange day. The ones that answer our call have slowly thinned in number. Yet, yesterday, four of you had answered that call! I can't write it off as mere coincidence...so I've decided that it would be best if you all traveled together!"
[19:39] <Kaosukage> Shuku-san: So it's a camping trip?
[19:40] <&GeMshuku> ((OK the clutter in here is real, let's join #Meguca_OOC so we don't have half the session be some ill timed concerns))
[19:42] <&GeMshuku> "If by camping, you mean overturning youma campsites...yes."
[19:42] <Kaosukage> Shuku-san: Yay! I'll roast marshmellows!
[19:44] <Kasuga_Makoto> "...?"
[19:45] <Kasuga_Makoto> "We're a team, aren't we. That makes some sense, but I don't think we'll have much time to relax..."
[19:45] <Mystia_Lorelei> Hotaru gives a slight glare at Shuku-san, "Um... it's not really the camping you're thinking of. We're pretty much on a world saving mission you know." she explained.
[19:46] <Kaosukage> Shuku-san: Exactly!
[19:46] <Kaosukage> Shuku-san: We're gonna fight mosters and camp and I can get a gear in my head!
[19:48] * Kaosukage is now known as Shuku-san
[19:48] <&GeMshuku> "There's nothing wrong with relaxation, so as long as it's after a good day's work. Too much work and no fun make for dull magical girls. Generally, work would be hunting youma down perhaps more than it is actually fighting them, but today is a special occasion! And as such..."
[19:48] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> Miyu was giving furtive glances towards Fate, while slightly creasing the pet food bag. She'd hoped to have come earlier than the rest but... it appears they were quiet energetic. With an inbound sigh, Miyu replaced the pet food bag back in her handbag and slowly moved out into the open
[19:51] * Shuku-san is now known as Kitagawa-Mankanshuku
[19:52] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> Kitagawa watched the food bag vanish into her hangbag. "Why no food?" She paced from once foot to the other.
[19:52] <Mystia_Lorelei> "I don't recall hearing a thing about getting gears in our heads... but fair enough about the relaxation! Especially when we're dealing with life threatening creatures as part of our job, we always deserve a nice break afterwards." she replied to both Fate and Mankanshuku.
[19:53] <Kasuga_Makoto> "...Well, there's only so much we can do. But I'm hoping that we'll keep ourselves together. For some reason...I have a feeling that we're going to have to get used to one-another.
[19:53] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> "Well I told the weird gear-thingy that I wanted one too! When do I get my gear?" She looked almost pleading.
[19:53] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> Miyu clutched her bag with a firm sense of resolve! This food was for Fate and no one else! Also why were these girls already looking for a break when they haven't done anything yet? Normal people were weird... or maybe she was abnormal? She couldn't tell. She never talked to people. Much. Mainly cause she couldn't.
[19:54] <&GeMshuku> From the sky, a bird descends. ...A bird? ...It's a somewhat large owl...a pure white owl, with big, black eyes. ...Like, really black eyes. They're nothing but black spheres, really. Kinda scary, almost befitting of an owl It eventually completely arrives, perching right next to Fate, who continues speaking! "I've called upon Galaxia to help you out with finding your first youma. He can find youma with his own special power, but he can't use it that often. He generally helps out girls who've had bad luck in finding youma, but today will be an exception!"
[19:57] <Mystia_Lorelei> "Interesting, so we're about ready to hunt down a youma soon I take it?" she replied. "Let's do our best then!"
[19:57] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> "Yeah!" Katagawa jumped up, pumping her fist into the air cheerfully.
[19:59] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> Why were these girls so enthusiastic about going hunting anyways? Miyu might have wanted a wish granted but that didn't make the whole idea of stabbing things to death with a screwdriver any less haunting. Hopefully she'd get other things to use. Hopefully!
[20:02] * Kasuga_Makoto took a moment to lean against the fountain, crossing her arms. She didn't really feel this was going to go well, as if it was as dangerous as Fate claimed, these two energetic girls might end up in quite a bit of trouble. She looked to Miyu for a moment, as if to wordlessly convey her confusion.
[20:03] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> Miyu glanced back at Makoto and silently shook her head, using quite obvious body language to express her inability to comphrehend the two happy go lucky people.
[20:03] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> Kitagawa watched the two stoiticly stare about, and frowned. She walked over to Miyu. "What's your name?"
[20:05] <&GeMshuku> The bird speaks. "...They do seem different, I suppose. Hmhmhm, very well." It turns its head upside down (as an owl is oft to do) and spreads its wings! The black spheres glow...and then, they light up quite brightly! ...And then they dim, and everything rights itself, especially the owl's head. "A youma is present to the north, near what you call...an arcade. A right large thing, though it seems to be clumsy."
[20:05] * Sakata_Mori is now known as Sakata_Ginko
[20:05] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> Miyu recoiled with an almost overblown reaction. God her face was so close. And her breath smelled of... sweets? Whaaat Miyu wanted sweets too. Still the face. Too close. Going to move back.... riiiight, perfect. Miyu looked at Mankanshuku from a slightly more comfortable distance and just pulled out her I.D. and showed it to Mankanshuku.
[20:07] <Mystia_Lorelei> "At an arcade? Hope no one is there right now. We should exterminate it before it harms anyone!" she said eagerly. She feels pretty excited to take down a youma, especially after witnessing one herself a long time ago.
[20:08] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> Kitagawa read it. "Yoshihane... Miyu? Nice to meet ya Miyu!"
[20:10] <&GeMshuku> Fate speaks up! "Ah, something I should note now that you're all set to fight youma. Your normal state is, while more still more magical than the normal human, and even capable of very minor magical feats, you'll have to transform in order to make full use of your power. As for how you transform...well, that comes naturally. Don't think about it, just will it to be!"
[20:11] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> "But I wanna transform now! With cool music!" Kitagawa turned and looked at Fate!
[20:12] <&GeMshuku> "...If you'd like to now, don't let me stop you. And...music has been known to play!"
[20:12] <&GeMshuku> ((Flavor first-time transformations as you see fit!))
[20:13] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> Kitagawa gasped in delight. "Really? Just like the anime!?"
[20:15] <&GeMshuku> "In your case, I wouldn't doubt it in the least!"

[20:15] * Kasuga_Makoto seemingly pulled an oddly bound silver book from nowhere, cracking it open. Funny, she imagined it, and it was right there. Browsing through its strange symbols and language, Makoto added... "We still have to be on our guard, but I suppose we should at least learn the limits of our powers before we start using them..."
[20:16] * Kitagawa-Mankanshuku audibly squeed at the idea of transforming just like Sailor M**n!
[20:16] * ApatheticForestFairy is now known as Yoshihane_Miyu
[20:18] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> "Okay, let's see what i can summon! I want something cool!" She raise her hands and closed her eyes, feeling something light fall into them. She opened her eyes, seeing a long hammer. "Cool!" She smashed the ground in front of her, leaving both a large dent and a loud squeaking sound. "Eeeeeee!"
[20:19] * Kasuga_Makoto placed her hand onto the book after a moment, and her body seemed to shift, brilliant light forming around her body and coalescing into her. The glimmering waves of light pulled themselves close to her, forming into a brilliant silver gown, inlaid with clasp of the greek letter Omega and ribbons etched with some bizarre, eldritch rune-speak. The runes glittered with the light of the beyond...
[20:19] <Kasuga_Makoto> *a
[20:20] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> Kitagawa completely forgot about her hammer. "Whoa..."
[20:20] * Kasuga_Makoto took a moment to look herself over, afterwards. She nodded faintly and smiled to herself... "...I don't know what else I was expecting."
[20:20] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> Miyu thought otherwise, but she nodded her head all the same! Still, arcades. Miyu hadn't been to one since... she was a kid! She didn't remember an arcade being in that part of the city, but she guessed she /did/ remember a few of the other girls in her class gossiping about it. (They weren't really that quiet either). Off to work! For world peace! For a voice! For onii-chan! And for hour long sessions of petting! Fate might feel a
[20:20] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> shiver run down its figurative spine at this point of the thought!
[20:21] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> Miyu thought it would be prudent to... walk to the arcade. She wouldn't be caught dead wearing those strange outfits if she could help it. ... if she could.
[20:21] <Mystia_Lorelei> "Eh?! Transforming again?" she asked. Unlike the other girls, she changed her appearence completely as soon as she became a magical girl, so this technically wouldn't be her first transformation. "Well, hopefully it'll improve my appearance a bit..." she said.
[20:21] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> "How do I do that?"
[20:21] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> She looked at both of them, excited.
[20:22] <Kasuga_Makoto> "...You think about it, and it becomes a reality. It's quite easy."
[20:22] <&GeMshuku> Fate DOES shiver, though one can't tell if it's because of the thought or the hammer. Galaxia is completely unphazed by either, and intently watches the transformation sequences!
[20:22] <Kasuga_Makoto> "I felt something...something write itself into my form." she notes, somewhat hollow.
[20:22] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> "Okay!"
[20:22] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> Kitagawa closes her eyes again, consetrating.
[20:22] <Kasuga_Makoto> "...Fate, is that supposed to happen?"
[20:24] <&GeMshuku> "I suppose that would be a way to put it, yes! You might feel unnatural when you transform, and that's to be expected. You're beyond natural, and you have to be in order to fight the youma. ...Though, your case might be different in minor ways, considering the strangeness surrounding you...but it shouldn't be anything to worry about either way."
[20:25] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> Kitatagawa began spinning her hammer like a baton, and it glow brightly, sprouting a interlocking mechanical design down it's length. The hammer itslef grew two wings on the sides, fluttering. Her clothes began to change, into a bright green dress that clung to her skin, but also had a odd robot-like tone to it- as though it were metal exoskeleton. It ended
[20:25] * Kasuga_Makoto cracks open the book again. The writing seems to leap off the page and she takes a moment. It sounds like she's being bothered by something only she can hear...
[20:26] <Kasuga_Makoto> "...F-Fate? I'm going to try and see what's going on in the arcade."
[20:26] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> in a skirt, this looking mostly, normal, and her legs were covered in a tight tigh-highs. On herh ead a gear appeared, clearly covering part of her hair, but most of her head was normal. Upon opening her eyes, one of them is red, with no pupil.
[20:26] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> Miyu decides she doesn't want to be seen with these people, as she begins to walk off towards the arcade, sending a telepathic message to Fate <I'll be heading their first to check out the area. They... probably won't attack me if they don't notice I'm a magical girl. Probably.>
[20:27] * Kitagawa-Mankanshuku examined herself giddily. "I got my gear!"
[20:27] <&GeMshuku> "Then, good luck! May your first adventure go well! ...Don't forget to bring everyone else, of course."
[20:33] <Mystia_Lorelei> After seeing everyone else transforming, she gained a bit of courage by closing her eyes, relaxing right before concentrating. As she does this, her outfit changes into a pink long kimono with a star accessory. Her sword also begins to materialize in her hands out of thin air. Slowly she opens her eyes after the transformation was complete. She sighed a bit of relief as she noticed her new
[20:33] <Mystia_Lorelei> outfit and weapon. "Well, this actually looks kinda neat..."
[20:34] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> "Isn't this so COOL!? I got my gear!" Kitagawa pointed at her gear happily. It turns slowly through her head, somehow.

[20:47] <Mystia_Lorelei> After she has transformed, she noticed that one of the girls has already left. She looks and spots Miyu as she heads towards the direction of the arcade, and she decides to follow. "Erm... Were you planning to go on your own?"
[20:48] * Kasuga_Makoto looks towards Miyu and the girl following her... "...We really should stick together, if we can help it. I understand we're still all very new to this...but you'll just die if you go, alone."
[20:49] <&GeMshuku> Galaxia speaks! "...If you've all a mind to go, then go. I might have singled a youma out for you, but it is still a real threat, and if you take your time going to it, it might be beaten by another magical girl before you even get to it. My services shall not be repeated because you are all slow."
[20:50] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> "Yeah, we have to go kick butt together! Oh, and we need a team name!"
[20:50] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> Miyu quickens her pace! She doesn't want to be surrounded by a group of girls who look like they'd be suited for something crazy! Then again walking alone might mean she might have strange men talking to her, and these girls were... insane enough to scare them off... probably. Let's not take chances, Miyu decided as she broke into a jog!
[20:51] <&GeMshuku> Fate speaks! "...Galaxia isn't one to mince words, that's why he's not in charge of recruitment." It prompts no response from the owl.
[20:51] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> "So if she's going in first... is she the leader? Follow the leader!" She ran after her.
[20:51] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> *after Miyu
[20:52] * Mystia_Lorelei is now known as Matsubara_Hotaru
[20:54] * Matsubara_Hotaru starts jogging along to catch up, realizing that Miyu is actually avoiding the group. "Are you crazy and trying to abandon us right off the bat?! You haven't even fought a youma yet!" she shouted.
[20:58] <&GeMshuku> As the group makes their way haphazardly away from the town square, they find themselves within the presence of people once more, as things would normally be! Though, the closer they get to the arcade...the more that crowd thins. And while it wouldn't be readily apparent to anyone else...it would certainly be apparent that there was no arcade. Well, there WAS an arcade, and that large hunk of bright orange rock in the distance is decidedly arcade-sized, perhaps even shaped, but it's not actually an arcade.
[20:58] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> Miyu just gives Matsubara_Hotaru a sidelong glance before walking off. Though she wasn't headed straight for the arcade, rather... a tall building with a rooftop cafe so she could see the location better... until... she saw..
[20:59] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> "The arcade turned into a orange!"
[21:02] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> That was... one way of putting it. Well, might as well order something to drink before diving in. Dehydration was bad! Also she had always wanted to try out this place's chiffon cake... yuumm... wait work first food later! ... Miyu wondered if she would get paid for killing youma, outside the whole oblivion seed business....
[21:04] <Matsubara_Hotaru> As she chases Miyu, she then notices the giant rock in the distance as well. "Wait... Just what is that?! I don't think I've ever seen anything like it before in this city..."
[21:05] * Kasuga_Makoto catches up with the others to survey the odd orange outcropping. She regards it curiously... "It goes without saying that this shouldn't be here."
[21:07] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> Miyu seems pretty dead set on getting herself a drink! A nice drink to calm the nerves, reduce fatigue and to induce wakefulness! The perfect cup of coffee with a hint of chocolate and lots of whipped cream yum!
[21:07] * Kitagawa-Mankanshuku ([email protected]) Quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
[21:10] * Snowflames is now known as Sakata_Ginko
[21:16] * Kasuga_Makoto takes a moment, concentrating. Opening her book and thumbing to a random page, she delves into the script of the world, attempting to peer into the near future. What would lie ahead, if she suceeded?
[21:22] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> In the meantime, Miyu's showing clear signs of discontent that no one is minding the store! Blasphemy! How can she get her coffee now! Miyu's anger reached the peak!
[21:26] <&GeMshuku> Miyu might find the cafes...unattended. On one hand, it'd mean they don't have anyone stopping them from just...getting a drink! On the other hand, either she'd have to make it herself, or it'll be kind of cold. Pick your poison. Meanwhile Makoto reads the world...the end of this encounter is hard to see, though it does appear there isn't much between them and the youma! She tries to flip through, but she can only really read the middle. Things seem to be going well enough, as the stone golem fights well on the battlefield of orange rock, yet not nearly well enough...but as it takes another hit, it seems to snap, and everything goes white...it seemed as though it has a breaking point before it went wild so hard that the specific future is a bit out of your league.
[21:28] * Kaosukage ([email protected]) has joined #Meguca
[21:28] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> Miyu doesn't know how to make coffee! And thus begins the gradual snowballing of her mood. First she had crazy people as companions. Then this weird building floating in the air. BUT WORST OF ALL THE COFFEE SHOP WAS UNATTENDED!
[21:29] * Kasuga_Makoto clutches her forehead, still unused to all of this, and stands up... "...Everyone."
[21:30] <Matsubara_Hotaru> "Makoto...? What is it?" Hotaru asked, wondering if something is up.
[21:31] <Kasuga_Makoto> "...I've taken a look at what might happen, and we're not...too far away from our enemy. It looks to be a golem of some kind." She sighs and shakes her head... "I'm able to see short glimpses of the future, but that's about all I can figure out, from there..."
[21:32] * Kaosukage is now known as Kitagawa-Mankanshuku
[21:32] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> "So can I smash it?" Kitagawa wazved her hammer vaugely.
[21:32] <Kasuga_Makoto> "It seems that...everyone was concentrating their attacks on it to strip away some sort of armour or defenses it had. You'll...have to trust me on this one. Once we find it, it might be a tough opponent."
[21:33] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> Miyu wasn't entirely focused on what Makato was saying, but she did hear the word golem. What /is/ a golem anyways? She'd find out later. Probably.
[21:33] <Matsubara_Hotaru> "A...A golem? So something made of stone? No doubt it's at the orange rock too, huh?"
[21:33] <Kasuga_Makoto> "...Naturally, that's where it's located. I didn't see much, after that."
[21:34] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> "A golem's a biiiig living rock monster!"
[21:34] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> The crazy girl smiled at the idea of smashing one.
[21:34] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> That answered a lot of questions. So they're going to be hitting rocks with whatever objects they could find. Fuuun. About as worthwhile as hitting a brick wall with sticks. Not very. Guess the screwdriver wasn't going to be very helpful.
[21:34] <Kasuga_Makoto> "I'm not sure how it fights or how it'll react to us, but I know we've given it quite a smashing."
[21:34] <&GeMshuku> You feel as though stripping its defenses wasn't quite what was accomplished, actually! Rather, it was the smashing that caused it to react in a way that made it snap a bit more mentally!
[21:35] <&GeMshuku> ...And judging by how your vision cut out there...well...
[21:35] * Kitagawa-Mankanshuku runs over and smashes the orange rock with her hammer!
[21:36] * Kasuga_Makoto shakes her head a moment...
[21:36] <Kasuga_Makoto> "...W-wait, where's she going!"
[21:37] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> More importantly how did she move from here to there without anyone noticing? Strange things were happening. Maybe everyone somehow managed to forget the hammer girl was there. SOMEHOW.
[21:37] <Kasuga_Makoto> "...Someone, track her down! We can't have her rushing off like this. It's going to-!"
[21:37] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> Which reminded her she really needed to transform... this... wasn't working. Maybe she needed a mascot? Naaw the other girls didn't have one... so... okay... this seems to be a problem.
[21:39] * Kasuga_Makoto tries in vain to gather up the remainder of the team in hopes of catching up with the hyperactive girl! "It'll go berserk if she tries smashing it, probably! What're you all waiting for!"
[21:39] <&GeMshuku> It's definitely a big rock, and she approaches it with little interference (weaving through the fourth wall as she goes, no doubt). The titanic slab cracks a bit from the HAMMER IMPACT, but no real damage seems to have been done. Makoto ought note that they were fighting ON the rock! Thankfully, the monster wasn't the rock itself. That would be something else.
[21:40] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> Oh. That's right. Magical girls have wands... at least the normal ones. But Miyu didn't have a wand on hand so she decided to use that screwdriver she brought along instead. Pulling it out from her handbag she gave it a light swing. Not happening. Seriously this was... Oh. Ah. Right. Okay so that's how you do it.
[21:40] <Matsubara_Hotaru> "Ugh! Can't we just stick together without getting ourselves in grave danger?!" she complained as she rushed towards the hyperactive girl's direction!
[21:40] <&GeMshuku> ...That said, it's a big rock. Getting up there would like, require flight or something.
[21:41] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> "It didn't work! Guess I gotta smash it more!" Kitagawa got ready for another swing!
[21:41] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> Glancing at the world in front of her, Miyu stabbed into the air with the screwdriver! But instead of it just looking like Miyu was practicing her yandere murder technique, the tip of the screwdriver vanished as it sunk into an unknown dimension!
[21:41] <&GeMshuku> ...Which you can do, of course, but for some reason, no one decided to mention it. You can fly if you believe!
[21:41] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> Pushing deeper the entire screw disappeared into the pocket dimension, before Miyu pulled it out again, a glow of light filling the area as a blue umbrella was pulled from the gap!
[21:42] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> At the same time tendrils of fabric snaked out from the gap in reality, wrapping around her body and tightening around her limbs, while two fox ears just spontaneously appeared on her head!
[21:43] <Matsubara_Hotaru> "Mankanshuku!" Hotaru shouted as she starts lecturing, "Couldn't you wait for us!? You could have gotten yourself into serious trouble if you seperate from the group and head on to a youma just like that! Anyways, this giant rock isn't the youma we're fighting. We're apparently fighting a golem!"
[21:43] * Kitagawa-Mankanshuku stops.
[21:43] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> "Okay!" She lowers her hammer, smiling at the others.
[21:45] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> So now her hair was dyed blue, she had a pointy umbrella and she had better hearing! Yay. Magical Girl transformations never made sense. Now flying flying. Okay. Up we go! Okay. Let's just follow the other three before they get themselves killed.
[21:46] <&GeMshuku> The others haven't quite figured out flight yet! Is Miyu really following them upwards?
[21:46] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> "She's flying! I gotta try that!" She held up her hammer. "Magic hammer! Make me fly!"
[21:47] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> The hammer didn't respond.
[21:47] * Kasuga_Makoto hopes to follow the hyperactive girl's trail before things get worse, intuitively bending what passed for light, hoping it'd be enough to propel her closer to Mankanshuku! She tried her best, at least... "...Don't try and smash at it!"
[21:48] * Matsubara_Hotaru looks up the huge rock. "But how are we suppose to get up there?" she asked completely unknowing of the flight ability they could potentially have. Then she noticed Miyu flying up. "O-Of course! Flight! We... could do that?!"
[21:48] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> Miyu was... apparently flying. It felt about as natural as opening a screw in the grand tapestry of the world... which it wasn't.
[21:50] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> "Mmmm..." Kitagawa tried spinning her hammer like a propeller. Despite it making no sense, it seemed to be working, she was lifting off the ground! "Thanks Magic hammer!" You're welcome.
[21:52] <&GeMshuku> Anyone managing to make their way off the ground can see a large rock, with some plantlife growing on it, on the opposite side! While it's out of place...really, so is everything else. What to make of it~?
[21:53] <&GeMshuku> At least the rock is a normal color. Well, not including the greenery.
[21:53] <&GeMshuku> ...Well, it's less of a rock, and more...a rock formation.
[21:53] <&GeMshuku> A closely packed rock formation.
[21:54] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> "Is that the evil golem?"
[21:56] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> Miyu doesn't even justify that with a response. Not that she justified anything with a response to these strange people. Sitting neatly on her umbrella (It was quite long and she didn't want people looking up her skirt.) Miyu floated carefully, reaching her senses out to scan the local area for mental activity.
[21:56] * Matsubara_Hotaru tries to concrentrate her energy, wanting to learn to fly. Eventually, she succeeds a bit by floating up a bit, and soon she starts flying upwards. Eventually, she lands on the floor of the huge rock. She surveys the scene noticing things she did not expect such as plant life and whatnot.
[21:57] * Kitagawa-Mankanshuku lands by her, watching everything with the closest to a serious expression she could manage.
[21:59] <&GeMshuku> Miyu definitely sees a rock. Yep, that's a rock. She can't sense mental energy, perhaps because she's not trying hard enough, or perhaps there isn't any. Also, plants don't think.
[22:01] * Kasuga_Makoto continues attempting to twist this 'light' in various ways to get her into a good vantage point on the rock face, illuminating the area as she gracefully moved through it!
[22:04] <&GeMshuku> Mankanshuku can...somehow, note that this strange rock formation is quite clearly unnatural, and it's not because there's plants. Obviously, that closely packed formation isn't just a bunch of rocks. If it's not just a bunch of rocks, then it's...
[22:04] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> Annnd turns out the one that Miyu thought was calm and collected was yet another crazy person just itching for a fight. Miyu couldn't help but sigh. Very deeply.
[22:05] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> Miyu still hasn't landed on the rock, rather was floating a short distance above the rock.
[22:05] <&GeMshuku> ...well, it's made out of stone. The question is if her mind can make any further leaps and bounds!
[22:05] <Kasuga_Makoto> "...Something about this doesn't make sense..." Makoto shakes her head a little, having propelled herself around the area, seemingly planning what to do if their target decides to wake up or show itself...
[22:08] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> "If it's not rocks... then..." She tilts her head. "Ummm... golem!"
[22:13] <&Yoshihane_Miyu> Miyu had some difficulty reacting to that. It looked like... a perfectly normal set of rocks. Maybe that's the thing! Still... better get ready for it, as Miyu squinted her eyes, looking at the area that the crazy girl was looking at.
[22:13] <Kasuga_Makoto> "...It seems to be asleep, then. How would we go about waking it up?"
[22:13] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> "We can hit it!"
[22:14] * Kasuga_Makoto looks towards the area as well, letting her book freely float out infront of her, opening itself as the runes on her dress glittered along with those on the page. She's preparing for the coming fight, but not exactly attacking.
[22:18] <&GeMshuku> Miyu sees...that yes, it's definitely a golem, and you might wonder how anyone could have seen anything else. I mean, it looked to be a golem of some kind. And it's an unnatural rock formation in an unnatural place. What else would it be other than the enemy? Even Mankanshuku figured that one out! ...Though, you have a suspicion that it might not be napping, but waiting. You've all been pretty noisy, after all.
[22:19] <&GeMshuku> ...It's followed by a sense of impending peril!
[22:19] * Matsubara_Hotaru has eventually caught up with the group as she was the last one learning to fly. She too notices how unnatural the whole area seems to be, and eventually she sees the golem. "So that's the golem? I wonder if this golem is also a youma itself... Has to be."
[22:19] <&GeMshuku> You might not know what to make of it, but you ought make something of it.
[22:19] <Kasuga_Makoto> "...I have a bad feeling about this..."
[22:21] * &Yoshihane_Miyu ([email protected]) Quit (Connection reset by peer)
[22:21] * Yoshihane_Miyu ([email protected]) has joined #Meguca
[22:21] * Yoshihane_Miyu is now known as Miyu_Yoshihane
[22:22] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> "Smashy time?"
[22:24] <Matsubara_Hotaru> "Well... we first might have to strategize a bit or something. We can't just straight up rush in and beat it up, I think."
[22:25] <Miyu_Yoshihane> Miyu nimbly wraps her knees around the umbrella, flipping backwards while gripping the umbrella firmly with her right hand, before, casually slipping off it and floating in the air without support, opening up the umbrella, her shadow and the umbrella casting a dim shadow over the form of the golem as she glared at it.
[22:26] <&GeMshuku> Did she flip in place? Is she still above that golem?
[22:30] <&GeMshuku> It seems so! As such, she's barely time to even recognize that the golem is suddenly going skyward at a speed she was not prepared for in the slightest! It comes to life with a terrifying jump, like the shot of a catapult!
[22:30] <&GeMshuku> It may or may not hurt.
[22:33] * Kitagawa-Mankanshuku wobbles as the golem moves beneath her feet, and tries ot steady herself.
[22:35] <&GeMshuku> She barely manages to get out of the way, rejoining the others! ...It was slower than originally thought, but she was caught off guard! The stone-tree golem lands with a deafening thud, and silently regards the party...as it, with glowing eyes, takes a battle stance!
[22:35] <Miyu_Yoshihane> Miyu... somehow managed to escape with a bit more force than she expected! That's never a good sign! Well being alive and things not hurting is good and all!
[22:36] * Kitagawa-Mankanshuku falls off the golem as it lands, using her hammer to slow her fall, then rise over it. She was gonna give it a nasty whack on the head!
[22:37] * Kasuga_Makoto pulls back for a moment, taking stock of the situation. As the golem wakes, she turns her mind to her light powers, concentrating the light about her and projecting it outwards! That's right, her first attack as a magical girl is a focused laser, hopefully hot enough to pierce through the thick substance of the golem's body!
[22:39] * Kitagawa-Mankanshuku smashed the golem on top of the head as hard as she could, the momentum form her spinning helping a lot, though she didn't notice that. She seemed ot hover as she hit, and went right back to spinning when she pulled back.
[22:43] * Sakata_Ginko (Snowflames@gensoukyoueasternstory.net-9888A6D7.hsd1.wa.comcast.net) Quit (Ping timeout: 244 seconds)
[22:50] <&GeMshuku> A clean hit! ...Er, wait. While that hammer swing cracked the orange rocky battlefield, it didn't seem to do much of anything whatsoever.
[22:52] <Kasuga_Makoto> ((Disregarding last post till later.))
[22:53] * Kasuga_Makoto moves in to approach the golem from another angle, considering her options and taking a moment to get a better grasp on these 'light' powers of hers. She's able to cross the distance quickly enough, taking aim on the beast!
[22:58] <&GeMshuku> The laser connects! It does a better job in searing the golem's thick hide!
[23:00] <&GeMshuku> ...You feel that hide is REALLY thick, though. But yet, you find the idea of getting close...something that might be ill advised at some point.
[23:10] * Miyu_Yoshihane twirls her umbrella slightly, causing a swirl of notes to radiate out towards the golem! They strike with uncanny accuracy, and Miyu again felt the magic surging a bit higher than she had planned!
[23:30] <&GeMshuku> As Hotaru closes the gaps, the titan swings down a mighty stone fist upon the one swatting a hammer in its face!
[23:32] * Kitagawa-Mankanshuku tries ot block it, panicking, with her hammer, but the hammer actually grows insize, sending her fly over the punch! The hammer shrink she starts twirling to hover again.
[23:32] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> *flying
[23:36] <&GeMshuku> The golem is none the worse for wear! At this rate, it might win a battle of attrition. You might want to give more oomph in your attacks!
[23:36] <Kitagawa-Mankanshuku> Angry that the nasty golem took a swing at her, Kitakawa tried another hammer hit of her own!
[23:39] * Kasuga_Makoto intensifies the strength of the laser, realizing that it's able to cut into the golem's defenses pretty easily. She focuses it, refines it intuitively, hoping the next strike's a bit stronger than the first...!
[23:48] * Kitagawa-Mankanshuku smashes down on the golem, her hammer glowing as she charged more magic than before, hitting it extra hard!
[23:49] <&GeMshuku> And this one, unlike the last, HITS HOME! The golem reels back, and stares at Mankanshuku with angry eyes.
[23:49] * Kitagawa-Mankanshuku smirks and blows a raspberry at the mean golem!
[23:58] <Miyu_Yoshihane> Miyu sucessfully managed to shoot a paralytic wave of semiquavers at the golem, limiting it's actions! However, she failed to taunt the golem out from it's current position, leaving Mankanshuku still in harms way!
Session Time: Sat May 09 00:00:01 2015
[00:00] <&GeMshuku> Clearly, it must still be reeling from the attack Mankanshuku hit it with! It's definitely occupied with her right now!
[00:43] * Matsubara_Hotaru has thought to herself, "If I get too close, I might get in Miyu's way. It's best for me to fight with range... but how can I do that with the sword unless... Magical... Sword... Aha!" She then points her sword towards the golem shooting out an ice elemental beam, unfortunately for her, it missed!
[00:53] <&GeMshuku> How do you miss a hunk of rock? ...Just magical things! What seems to also be magical is...this golem making another swing at Mankanshoku!
[00:56] * Snowflames (Snowflames@gensoukyoueasternstory.net-9888A6D7.hsd1.wa.comcast.net) has joined #Meguca
[00:57] * Kitagawa-Mankanshuku dodges the attack almost easily- seems it was a bit off on that one! She grabbed her hammer firmly, ready to  counterattack.
[00:59] <&GeMshuku> NEXT TIME, ON OBLIVION SEED Z: The magical girls try doing a little more than 13 damage in one session.
