Puella Magi Megami Tensei
Finally!
11: Leisurely Stroll, and a Lead Pipe
[X] Take it, could be useful.
You stop to pick it up, and Homura slows to look back at you.
"Hm." Is all she says.
You continue wordlessly.
PRESENT
[X] "It shouldn't be that surprising considering that one seems completely mad and the other can allegedly 'see' things from the future, but then seems to think that everything she wants will still happen anyway and her 'visions' are simply lagging behind. By the way, did you know them before all of this?
"Yeah, I can see what you mean," you begin, "Given one claims to see the future, and the other one's a psycho. I mean, if you can "see" the future, isn't that it? Or maybe- eh, nevermind. By the way, did you know them before all of this?"
"I knew of them, but not personally. Also, Oriko can truly see the future, and she wants to change it." Homura answers.
"Huh, weird."
"We're almost there, by the way." She points towards the exit of the maze of concrete, and you both step out into the sunlight.
Across the street from where you are stands a two story house, complete with a front yard. Wait, were there trees behind the house?
"I instructed Madoka and Sayaka to regroup at her house, and thankfully I ran into a friend while looking for you. She escorted them back to her home at my request."
You almost say, "Wait, you have friends?!"
Almost.
"Another Magical Girl, right? Hope she's not like the other-"
"One more thing. You said you spoke with Oriko. Did she say anything... Strange?"
[] "She said Witches are Magical Girls."
[] "Nothing but ramblings."
[] "Wasn't really listening, sorry."
[] Write in?

[X] Now that I think about it, she said something about not being able to "see" me in her future sight. Considering the weirdness of this day though, doesn't really measure up to the other stuff so far.

I imagine this being said in a Russian accent for some reason.

"Yeah, it started when she opened her mouth, and kept happening until I threw her like a dodgeball." You answer.
You swear Homura smirks at that remark. "Anything that stood out?"
"I think when I pinned her, she spouted something like 'Witches are Magical Girls!' Personally, I've got no idea what either of those are, so-"
"It would be unwise to say that in front of Madoka and the others. Please refrain from mentioning that." Homura cuts in.
"Weird, but okay. Anyways she also said she can't "see" me in her future sight, but what-"
Her eyes widen a small bit. "She can't see you?"
"I guess not, whatever that means, but they're still dangerous, right?"
"I'd like to talk further, but we should get inside." Homura states.
"Right, let's go!" You both walk towards the house, and Homura takes out her phone. After tapping out and sending a message, the door opens.
A pair of familiar pink eyes peek out at you, and Madoka comes rushing out.
"Y-Yumi! You're okay!" She shouts, grabbing you into a hug. Which would have been fine, but...
"Son of a- hey, watch the back!" You blurt out.
She looks confused for a moment, before looking at her sleeves, now sporting a new red color.
"You're hurt! Are you okay? I'm so sorry-"
"Relax, I'm alive!" You respond, "Let's get inside."
You, Homura, and Madoka all head through the open door. There, sitting at the dinner table, was Sayaka, and an unfamiliar face. The newcomer had blonde hair, done in little drills, and golden eyes.
"Yumi! You're alive!" Sayaka happily shouts.
"Ah, so you're Yumi? Sayaka here has been going on and on about you." The blonde girl smiles as she speaks, almost in a motherly tone.
"I- er- I didn't- I mean- ugh!" Sayaka sputters out, holding her face in her hands.
"Allow me to introduce myself; I am Mami Tomoe, a pleasure to meet you!" Mami says with a slight bow.
"Um, Yumi, is your back alright?" Madoka peeps up.
"Here, let me-" Mami and Homura both speak in unison before stopping.
"Well, Homura, I suppose it falls to you. I'll keep watch, then." Mami says, before stepping outside.
"Sit down, please." Homura almost orders.
"You gotta tell us what happened!" Sayaka leans over the table, "Did you win?!"
[] "Define "win.""
[] "Kicked their assess! Yeah, there were two!"
[] "I lived."
[] Write in...?

[X] "Any battle survived is a victory another day. Everyone made it out, so that's a win in my book."
We punched both of them, got one into a chokehold, then ran the fuck away. I don't think we are sold on the whole Magical Girl thing in-character yet, but we know that their capabilities are beyond human.
We see it as a win cus they are MGs. The fact we defied QM expectations and lived is already a miracle.
Edit: slowly beginning to understand that I should wait for write in cause these things are great.

Still confused how we managed to outwrestle a meguca. I wonder what we are, because baseline human isn't it.

I suppose you are right, still we absolutely thrashed their egos at least.
Also I don't know if it was said before @TremendousMilk3, the choices are just for flavor, what we want to do/say or are they affecting our alignment or something like that, because this is part SMT, this is important to know.

Dice are well and good, but the outcome is still formed from the realm of possibilities. If I punch a well maintained steel door, best case scenario my hand just smarts a bit. No amount of high rolling will make that door cave.The Chosen of the Dice Gods, naturally.

Since I forgot to earlier, let me explain my write in real quick:
Basically, I want to shift the focus from "how much did we beat up or not beat up some random strangers" to what really matters, namely ensuring nobody got (critically) hurt.
Besides, any of the prewritten options, are either grim and downer, a middling one that feels kinda bland, and one thats waaaay to enthusiastic about having gotten stabbed, so I think some more moderation is nice.

If Jacob can outwrestle God, why can't we outwrestle a meguca?
