Renascence: A Homura Quest

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

[X][Switch]Swear Ruki to secrecy and switch back to Kyouko.

I wanted more Koko anyway.

[X][Nagisa]Hunt for Nagisa.

No way we leave the little cheese alone after all that.

[][Nanoha]

Do we even have anyplace close by to put her? I'm assuming the church is a non-answer.

Best choice: Drop her off with Kyouko and Mami. Kyouko answers the door, sees another Kyouko handing her the Nanoha-wannabe. The HomuKyouko just tells her, "You'll understand later."

I'd even go for that, if I didn't think that we're halfway across the city from Homura's apartment, and that kinda defeats trying to search for Nagisa.

Honestly, don't know what to do with Nanoha right now.

Really I expect the answer to that is - ask for help.
With all that has happened to the characters - Homura is at the end of her rope, we have a missing child (one that Kyouko knows sufficiently enough to have in her church) Nanoha is out...

This has gone past the point where Homura and a green rookie can handle. Far past it.

Even if Mami and Kyouko can't put Nanoha anywhere - they might know of some place. And be able to help with transportation of the bodily lift variety. Or help look for Nagisa.

With everything that has happened honestly they are going to find out - and frankly this is a big enough fallout that I can see them being insulted if Homura did not ask for assistance in the cleanup.

Did Ruki ever finish healing her own head? Last I checked it was only half there and the last story post didn't really touch on that subject.

On the subject of votes, I see enough arguments for switching back over to Koko for the moment to be viable. She would have a better idea where to find Nagisa or how to lure the cheese out after the shit that's happened. And we can't really let Nagisa be all alone here. Its an abandoned church area, meaning at best she gets found by cops that are suspicious of her being out here on her own.

On the subject of Nanoha however...yeah I'm getting not much. Best idea I have is trying to call for for help from either Sayaka or the other local Megucas, like Mami or native Kyoko. And those last two would be weird if they met HomuKyoko. Actually, it'd probably be weird even with Sayaka, but if she knows at least a little about Homura actually being a time traveler...

I forget, how much does Sayaka know about Homura's past. I know her sword power thing allowed her to get some of Homura's past, but most of it was just sort of a blur of emotions and/or a train wreck of half-there events. And that she forgot most of it immediately after (possibly due to Homura shaking the girl out of it before she could completely finish her viewing), but did she ever know and if so did she retain the knowledge that Homura is a time traveler?

She's got all of her features back, but she's still got some work to do on the flesh. Should be fixed soon. Homu's not paying much attention to things right now.

You don't know, but Sayaka never mentioned Time Travel.
 
[x][Switch]Remain as Homura
[x][Nagisa]Hunt for Nagisa.
[jk][Nanoha]Tie her up and drop her off at Madoka's house. Leave some tickets to the Nanoha movie and a note explaining that you heard she liked Nanoha, so you kidnapped Nanoha so she could watch Nanoha with Nanoha.
[x][Nanoha] Have Ruki guard her at the church. Besides, it would be useful to have someone there to let you know if Nagisa comes back.
[x][Other]Call Kyouko, Mami, and Sayaka for help searching for Nagisa.

So. Lying is actively detrimental to Homura's sanity when unstable. Specially to people she's grown to care about.

Good to know.

....also

Imagine switching to Kyoko then calling Kyoko.

Kyoko would know how to find Nagisa most likely. And...considering how there's Claras hanging around I'd rather not let any of these alone. So I'd argue for dropping them off at Mami's.

Totally should switch into Kyoko for homusanity though.

Ruki to keep healing Nanoha, Mami to protecc and Kyoko to keep everything cool.

Kinda think switching to Koko is going to hit Homura's sanity a little, because who, even in Magical Girl anime, shares their body with different souls that they can switch to the body of? Sounds insane no matter which way you look at it. But Homura definitely needs some rest and, insane or not, not being Homura for a while will let her get that rest. Who knows, may even hide her from whoever or whatever sent Berserker and Sesshomaru after her for a while.

Sending Ruki and Nanoha off to Mami's is probably the best for those two, Ruki being out of her element if there's any more Clara Dolls around, and Nanoha needing someone to heal her. Mami and Kyoko can easily help if any further problems arise for them.

Debating if we should call Sayaka in as well. Going alone with unknown number of Clara Dolls around might not work the greatest, or if there's any sort of backup or other things lurking around. But then we'd have to explain the body switching to the blueberry so she doesn't blurt something she shouldn't to current Kyoko. And then we'd have to spill the beans on time travel or hope she already knows...
 
I always thought that was possession and not body switching. No one ever commented about Yugi suddenly getting taller and just generally looking more badass compared to his normal appearance.

They also never commented on how the holograms created bursts of wind with every attack despite the lack of potential sources of wind since the Battle City arc, so I don't put much stock in the perceptive skills of people in the YGO world.
Maybe they just assumed Yugi slouched most of the time and just straightened up whenever it was time to duel? :V

Devil Homura is still Homura, she's just high on Love. No, we must become Mami. Then HomuMami and Mami Actual can work together in the kitchen to create the ultimate tea and cake to help Homura relax. Or kill each other because There Can Be Only One.

:V

Mami is not a good cook though, otherwise she'd offer to make madoka a cake rather then telling to wish for one :whistle:
Homura also likely isn't a good cook because cooking takes time and she doesn't ever have a lot of it.

First

[X][Switch]Swear Ruki to secrecy and switch back to Kyouko.
[X][Nagisa]Hunt for Nagisa.

[X][Nanoha]Call Kyoko and inform her of the situation then have Ruki take Nanoha to their apartment.

Kyouko is going to be sooooo confused hearing her voice on the other end of the line. I just know I'm going to laugh about it. Second, you raise a good point, and one I forgot to ask in my blue barrage earlier. So let's Blue Truth it, shall we? And another one that I also forgot earlier because I forgot to double check levels. And one I just thought of because of one of Higure's answers and I'm unable to recall any hyper significant event (outside that event gift chat with Memento!Koko) that is keyed directly to Kyouko occurring. Present!Sayaka practically being our Servant in the Type Moon sense in all but name could be significant enough for her to have been unlocked had we chosen her.

Switching to and allowing a Memento Meguca take control for extended periods of time can have both positive and negative impacts on Homura's sanity, depending on circumstance. The inverse, a Memento Meguca's sanity is effected by Homura's or a different Memento Meguca's control, is also true and impacts will become more severe depending on the number of recovered Memento Meguca.

Homura and the various Memento Meguca each have their own separate Grief levels and only the active girl's Grief accumulates and can be cleansed.

While each Memento Meguca has a specific condition or conditions to fulfill, they can be replaced or at least supplemented by Homura working together with the Memento Meguca's present self to create a magical effect that would be beyond either of them alone: example Lance of Longinus tandem creation between Homura and Present Kyouko.

Then again, Kyouko's Fighting is a big part about her, to the point she has a passive based around it. It's possible that the tandem magic thing WAS Memento!Kyouko's condition. It would be fitting for her all things considered.

Memento!Kyoko calling Present!Kyoko is a concern for me as well. I had originally considered reversing the order of switching and sending Ruki away in my vote, but decided to leave as is for the sake of accumulating votes. In my opinion, the best idea is to call Present!Kyoko and send Ruki away to her first, maybe call the blueberry to get some backup, then make the change to Memento!Kyoko to look for Nagisa.

I'd heavily recommend This blue or this one as that one you're using is a little garish on the eyes.
