"Stobbit," Sayaka says, puffing her cheeks out. "I'm gonna get a big head."

"Well, I mean, I was also thinking of dropping you off at school," you say off-handedly. "Literally."

"Don't you-" Sayaka's hand dives under her cloak. "Actually, you know what? I know how to fly now. Bring it."

"Now, where's the fun in that?" you stick your tongue out at her.

"That's what I thought," Sayaka says with a cocky grin, relaxing.
Since I didn't see anyone else comment on it: Sayaka badassness up! It's not just the confidence or the powerset, either - She's getting better at remembering her options when she's presented with a problem, and on top of that she's starting to develop an instinct of going for the power rolodex at the slightest hint of trouble. Good to see!
 
"You don't use the 'M' word. Gets right up his nose, sir. He can't help it, he loses all self-control. Like a red rag to a wossname, sir. 'Ape' is all right, sir, but not the 'M' word. Because, sir, when he gets angry he doesn't just go and sulk, sir, if you get my drift. He's no trouble at all apart from that, sir. All right? Just don't say monkey. Ohshit."




They're not in canon as far as I'm aware. All we know is that they're the survivors of a group that had one of their members killed by a witch and are essentially refugees looking for a safe place to settle.
"He's also very good at organizing and surprisingly well read. If ever you need a book recommended to you he's your man, er ape." "Ook!"

We should look into the merits of L-space I think. :V
 
But then she'll forget Madoka's name, and that would suck.
Do we need a timestop for this?

edit: I guess maybe since it somewhat involves Homura's future-knowledge?
I'm doing it like this just because this is a question about Homura and other timelines. I don't really agree with the way things have gotten around the witchbomb but I do think this is the time for this.

Also, gonna insist on that closing line for Homu-talk that got cut. Switching to a completely differing but relevant track after exiting timestop seems important for security. It helps sell the idea that something minor just happened, rather than having an abrupt and suspicious moment where people step aside and instantly return without discussing or doing anything.

Also, whats up with that vote tally? Two proxy votes to Redshirt rather than tagging onto Redshirt's actual vote block?

I choose to blame-

1. Homura did, in fact, do something wrong.
2. The problem of evil mild annoyance can only be attributed to Madokami.
3. This was all part of Oriko's fiendish scheme from the start.
4. Hijiri probably ruined this too, just like everything else she tries.
5. This lack of organization can only be attributed to someone with Sasa's fashion sense.
6. As with all brain damage in here, the root cause simply must be Sabrina herself.

-Oriko.

-[Q] Look she's trying so hard to not be actually evil she's now resorted to midly trolling me
 
Homura's already in blatant violation of the third rule of the Librarians of Space and Time:

1) Silence
2) Books must be returned no later than the date last shown
3) Do not interfere with the nature of causality
Well, it's a good thing she isn't a Librarian, then. Also helping her get away with it is the fact that her shield is completely separate from L-Space, so there isn't really anyone that's going to observe her flagrant violations.

...It occurs to me that she might also be violating rule 2, if she has any books from previous timelines.
 
Working normally now. Somebody probably unchecked one of the boxes or something.

There's a weird bit of red text in Redshirt Army's/Phoenixian's votes, that's not there in the actual votes. The colouring, I mean.

Weird.

So the details for ideas how to approach the Witchbomb prodding, which were in my iteration of the votes, have been sacrificed to the wordcount gods.

@Firnagzen is this a problem?

Is there any thought that we could be setting up mis-communication in the Shiogama conversation?

The concern I have, and coded for, was to settle in their minds that the Clear Seed has special social significance at the current time.

Perhaps like a Royal Letters Patent of a monopoly? It is there for a purpose, but we also want them to respect our interests.

That is to say, it really isn't totally personal property of the girls we give it to? Or is that the way you want it to become? Think about it....
 
Why are we trying to fit 2-3 updates into a single vote again?
