Renascence: A Homura Quest

Honorifics or Western-style Titles? I've used both before, which is bothersomely inconsistent

Hospital 5 | Strange Meetings
[X] Go in, introduce yourself. Befriending Sayaka early on isn't something you've done often, and certainly not this early on...
-[X] Analyze the situation, be sure that sayaka wont take it as you Interrupting something, is she wearing the uniform? play that angle, you recognized the uniform and wanted to get a head-start into making friends seeing as you've been in the hospital so long.... play the sympathetic angle and apologize if it was too forward of you.

You breathe, recalling most of what you know about Sayaka and Kyousuke's personal lives with a shudder. These two our a pair of time bombs. You'll have to be delicate.

You slowly walk up to the open door, knocking gently, "Hello?"

They both turn to look at you. Sayaka seems confused, while Kyousuke looks furious, as usual during this phase.

"What the hell do you want!?"

You tap into your sealed resevoirs of Moe, blushing brightly, "I-I'm sorry. I saw her uniform, and..." You perform a swift bow towards Sayaka, internally grinding your teeth, but used to using facades when needed, "I'm Akemi Homura. I'll be transfering to your school soon, and...um, would you please take care of me? I've been here for most of my life, and when I saw someone that might be able to help me get used to the outside..."

Kyousuke frowns, "Wait, most of your life...actually, I've seen you here before, haven't I? Your heart?"

You blink, surprised to be recognized. He never...'Oh. The braids. Still need to take those out.'

"Mmhm. The doctors say that I'm finally healthy enough to leave, and I've been given a slot on the school roster."

He nods, "Good. I'm happy to see someone getting out of this place." His gaze flicks to Sayaka, "Watch out for her. Anyone who gets stuck in here deserves to have someone waiting for them outside."

'Wait...what?'

She smiles at him, and then you, "Definitely! I'll show you the ropes, Akemi-san! I bet Madoka will be happy to help you out too! You'll be skipping class in no time!"

'...did Miki Sayaka just go into her version of Senpai-mode...?'

You feel a headache coming on as you smile, "Thank you. I'll let you get back to your conversation."

With a nod, you leave the two to themselves and head back into the hall.

'Well...that happened.'

So...where do you go from here?

-[X] Go see if you can get a detailed rundown on your heart problems, what causes it, and theoretically how to fix it. Maybe with enough information you can figure out a way to use Magic to fix the problem or at least make it cost less Magic/Corruption.

So Kamijou is a dick but feeling sympathetic, we got some bonus points in blueberry interaction because of what Kamijou said and more anomalies are here.

I advocate to not do that for now. We have Sayaka sympathy, lets not ruin it by take her away from violinboy.

Gentlemen, how do we dispose of the Kwijibo?

Convince Kyuubey to let him contract.

Solid plan.

Time stop + sniper rifle = (-1)Kwijibo Bonus points if we can pin it on the Yakuza.

Right now, you'd be going to see your cardiologist and ask about your heart problems.
 
Witch, what can you tell us about Homura´s family and circumstances?
 
I'd rather be more subtle and do it in a way that woouldn't make it obvious it was us as soon as we got our arsenal back.
Never said it was the best idea just that its a possibility. If we want to be creative there are plenty of things we could do with help from time stop that would make his death look natural or at least not point to us the murderer.
 
Start visiting Kamijou regularly with Sayaka, watch movies, anime, and old television shows with him. Star Wars, The Six Million Dollar Man, Army of Darkness, that Teen Titans cartoon, Fullmetal Alchemist, Cowboy Bebop, Berserk, Trigun, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Robocop, Hook, and I, Robot.

Witch, what can you tell us about Homura´s family and circumstances?
Her family loves her, but her parents are both very career oriented. Her mother's an archaelogist, and seems to always be off investigating something. Her father is always out on business. Even when they're home, they don't live nearby: Homura was here for specialized heart care, not proximity to home.

Homura was closest to her grandfather, who more or less raised her. He was a professional watchmaker, and passed ownership of the business down to Homura. Sadly, she can't claim it until she is of age, and it is presently held by her father. It is well cared for, but has not been open since her grandfather died of heart failure a 5 years ago.

Since then, she's lived on her own. She tries not to think about her past too much.

If you want to know any more , I'll have to start charging you for Memory Access.


They all involve lost or prosthetic arms/hands.
