Dark Magical Girl Quest

Feel like there should really be a moratorium for these turn plan votes. And maybe in general.

Your mom plans on restraining your freedom of movement for the next 3 turns but your actions and dice rolls may or may not wind up increasing or decreasing this time period.
This should be 2 turns now, right? I don't think there was anything about the grounding being prolonged.

Also, how much PP do we have right no?

We went from 10 to 0 for the stats raise and I think we Have 17 PP now (If my maths right anyway) Hmm trait or mistery spell, decision decisions.
Also 4 mayor and minor actions.

Yes, sorry, that should be two turns. And you have 17 PP.
 
Major Actions is pretty easy since we're still grounded IMO.

[ ] Plan Still Grounded Draft
-[ ][Major] Go to Urban Legends Club
-[ ][Major] Go to Casual Music Club
-[ ][Major] Spend time with Yohimichi. Ugh.
-[ ][Major] Spend Time with Mom. Ugh.

Go to both clubs, Urban Legends to continue its plotline and Casual Music to start its. Spend time with Yoshimichi (misspelled Yohimichi in the action) because I'd like to find out what's up with him and spend time with Mom for hopefully getting the grounding lifted early. And it's implied that Yoshimichi and Mom might synergize for lifting the grounding.
 
I don't think we should risk extending our "Grounding" or worse with lie actions, plus going for random for jobs since getting a job at moms place just give her more chances to look at us.

[X] Plan: Clubs, Bonds, Knowledge and Pulling Teeth (aka Counseling... ugh)
-[X][Major] Go to Urban Legends Club - You should probably check back in with Hikari. You have the encounter with Auteure to go over, plus there's all that evidence you collected that you haven't shared with her yet. (Intellect, Empathy: Medium)
-[X][Major] Go to Casual Music Club - You need some time to relax and unwind. And you're not allowed to go relax at the mall, damnit, so this is the only other option you have. Hopefully all the idol fangirls will leave you alone if you pop your earbuds in and close your eyes. (Empathy: Easy)
-[X][Major] Spend time with Yohimichi. Ugh. - You're not gonna lie, you're pissed off at the boy. But… Well, you won't admit that you've missed your friend but you supposed you could give him a chance to explain at least. You can't help but be curious about what happened to him. But only because you can't stand not knowing something, not because you're worried or anything. Idiot. And you suppose your mom will think reconnecting with an old friend is healthy for you or something. (Empathy, Might: Medium)
-[X][Major] Go to counseling. Ugh. - This is basically the last thing you want to do. Ever. But your mom won't stop bugging you about it, you can just tell, so you might as well get it out of the way. You just need to lie your ass off and convince this councilor lady that you're perfectly fine, really. (Empathy: Hard)
-[X][Minor] Learn a New Spell - Each Spell costs 10 PP to learn and takes up 1 minor action slot. You chose which spell tree to learn a spell from, with each spell tree progressing linearly.
--[X] ??? - And then there's this. The mystery energy you feel. You have no idea what it does, so maybe you'll just mess around with it until it does something.
[X][Minor] Contemplate your orbs - Three Catastrophites, one bonded to you, two not. Corrupted by the Correctors, whatever that means. You can feel their power thoguh. Maybe if you poke and prod at them, you'll figure something out. (Soul: Medium)
-[X][Minor] Look for a part time job - You currently are dependent on your mother's generosity for money and you get the feeling that won't be enough for long. You can try to look for employment at places you know or just do what normal teens do and look online. You need to pass a check to be hired and the skills used will be the main skills relevant to working there later.
--[X] Check Job Sites (Random)
-[X][Minor] Recall the past - So much of your current life is rooted in the past and yet, you struggle to remember the details clearly. Focus and Meditation may help. Uses Soul, with DC determined by the subject in question.
--[X] Yume Ai (Easy)
 
All the options were tempting. Joining up with the army was a big deal but having someone in your corner with that kind of sway and power? Could be worth it. And Auteure sure made it sound like they would be in your corner. But turning into a 'monster of the week' could also be useful and it came, supposedly, no strings attached
A mirror of our (the voters) actual thought process. Interesting.
You shake your head, reasserting your cynicism and resisting the urge to giggle like a schoolgirl with a crush. Because you aren't one. At all. No way.
The Nile is a river in Egypt…
You glance to the side, wanting to see what Fukumoto thinks, but given the intense look in her eyes, the way she's muttering herself and the occasional quiet giggle…
Wow. Uh, she's probably not gonna be on the nice side of The Six.
You want to find out what really happened to your sister and, depending on what you find, deal with whatever/whoever killed her. Turning into a monster and making deals with the devil… They could help with the second part of your goal but you need to take care of the first part first. And that means you need answers.
Kaworu's getting into her investigation mode, I see.
So, a question it is. You can't completely cross out the possibility that your sister was an unfortunate victim of this evil monster army organization, she did like sticking her nose places it didn't belong, but you can't just straight up ask, hey, did you kill my sister? Well, you can, but then Auteure will probably realize you're looking for revenge. If they did do it, there's an advantage gone.
Fucking Ace Attorney Logic Chess is going on in Kaworu's brain, goddamn.
Boss lady did warn us that you would be the clever one of the bunch… Alright. You're correct in all of your deductions there. Magical Girls are real and they fight against the forces of Correction. In fact, they've only grown more and more numerous, popping up in many cities across Japan
Alright, that's to be expected…
Auteure takes a brief moment to readjust and again, you suppress a spike of jealousy at just how goddamned comfy she looks.
Though, I do want whatever Auteure has for a couch/seat now.
Once it reaches a certain size, and if the proper methods are used during its crafting, Miraculite takes on… well, almost a life of its own. It's still a reflection, or rather, a concentration of human… No, this is off topic, sorry. The point is, there are special, powerful pieces of Miraculite that, if bonded to a human, can turn that human into a Magical Girl. Or a Magical Boy but that's more rare for whatever reason."
Somebody write that down on the Conspiracy Board.



What do you mean we don't have a conspiracy board, people? At this rate, we'll need one!
again. "That's right. Apparently the robots were just as eager to get her Miraculite as they were about retrieving the Catastrophites
The… Catastrophites.
Can somebody get Fate better naming sense?
This one didn't give a name but given that she killed one of the Correctors to take a Catastrophite, she ran away from Kindness rather than work with her and the one spell she used was 'murder',
Oh hey, that was us. Seems that we're currently seen as "unaffiliated."
Hikari Fukumoto Relationship Level 0 → Level 1
Nice.
Soul Sensitivity Trait can now be trained.
??? Gained
Double nice.

Death is not our step parent. That would require them to know our mom.

They're the parent that stepped up.

Nice.
Miraculite Maker Trait still requires something else...
Lead Investigated: 1 PP
And that's very interesting. Maybe more spells from the Purple spell tree will help us out here? Might be wrong tho.
"Unleash Catastrophe: Death."

Once again, everything fades away. For one brief second that lasts an eternity, there is nothing. Nothing but you and the cold void. And the void wraps around you, armors you, protects you. For a movement, you are…

And then the moment ends and you're back on the rooftop, expect now you're a Magical Girl. And that's still a ridiculous thing to say but here you are. "Alright, that's step one done. Next, what exactly can I do?"

|POWER COMES FROM THE STONE BUT IS SHAPED AND SHOULDERED BY YOUR SOUL. THE STRONGER THE SOUL, THE MORE POWER YOU CAN COMMAND. AS YOU ARE NOW, YOUR SOUL IS YOUR ARMOR AND YOUR WEAPON, YOUR GRACE AND YOUR STRENGTH.|
On one hand, extremely awesome. On the other, Death, you need to learn the art of redaction.

Triple nice!
You're not really sure what you were thinking (you were daydreaming about Miracle Maker Kindness and how cute she was) but suddenly you felt something different that you can't really describe (hot, shy, needy, happy) and the words came to you
I… feel like any jokes I can make here might get me shot dead by the moderators. MOVING ON!
Kaworu now fully understands her capabilities. Proper combat plans can now be made rather than vague votes.
Explored Magical Girl abilities: 2 PP
Hell yeah! Combat votes!

…what else did I expect.
No Change. Kaworu is still grounded for two more turns.
Checks out.
It's incredible that Mi-chan is back, right in front of you. But there's just one thing… "You're a guy?!?"
What is it with little kids and being unable to tell gender? I mean, even I wasn't immune to this, I saw a kid with long hair and immediately assumed "girl".
"Hahahaha! Yep! Ah, I knew you remembered me!" The boy (who is Mi-chan?! Somehow?!?!?) straightens up, laughing, and okay, wow. There's no mistaking him for a girl now.
I see that our childhood friend has been lifting.

[X] Plan Still Grounded
-[X][Major] Go to Urban Legends Club
-[X][Major] Go to Casual Music Club
-[X][Major] Spend time with Yoshimichi. Ugh.
-[X][Major] Go to counseling. Ugh.
-[X][Minor] Gain a Trait
--[X] Sensitive Soul
-[X][Minor] Contemplate your orbs
-[X][Minor] Recall the past
--[X] Yume Ai (Easy)
--[X] Yoshimichi Yanyama (Easy)

Go to the clubs, meet our old/former friend, and try out this counseling thing.

Minor actions, feels like a good time to gain a Trait and contemplate the Orbs, and then I want to Recall the past. Yume Ai for more information on our sister, and Yoshimichi since if we're meeting with him, we probably want to remember all the facts about him first.
 
Welps its getting late 10:40 pm where I live so im going to sleep, lets see how many people make plans. Goodnight Everyone! Dont let the Bed Demons Bite!
 
[X] Plan Still Grounded
[X] Plan: Clubs, Bonds, Knowledge and Pulling Teeth (aka Counseling... ugh)

I'm wary of putting stock into what is almost definitely Fate's magic, considering how overtly antagonistic they are towards us, but at least poking it a little seems like a good idea.
 
Hunh…Sooo Catastropite eh? I guess that's how Fate think thinks she can keep us even when we try to turn from her…
Also I don't trust Mi-chan. You can't fight fate, he says? Hrrrm!

Putting the selections in a scrambled order to see if that impacts the chronology of the selection, prioritizing the PP expenditures in case any of the bonuses wind up being relevant to subsequent actions, such as recalling the past about Yume Ai. Name of the Plan comes from the last item on the list, which is last to make the boy sweat a little. Give him a little taste of what he put Kaworu through.
 
[X] Plan Heed DEATH's Advice

I still really like Death and have no regrets of our mentor.
 
Scout Some Outsourcing shows up twice BTW. Also: Contemplate your orbs is a fantastic name for that action.

As for the vote I'd love to pick up Sensitive Soul, but I'm otherwise relatively open.


Maybe more spells from the Purple spell tree will help us out here? Might be wrong tho.???
Give. Miraclite seems to almost be antithesis to Fate so I kind of doubt the option in her colour will help, but who knows. Then again, if death magic can repel death...

What is it with little kids and being unable to tell gender? I mean, even I wasn't immune to this, I saw a kid with long hair and immediately assumed "girl".
Gender is a complex multi-faceted construct and broad assumptions are even more easily made as a child. In this context it also wouldn't help that there is much less sexual dimorphism in prepubescent humans.

Also I don't trust Mi-chan. You can't fight fate, he says? Hrrrm!
OH NO

WELL, ONe of our potential teammates has the Indoctrination background. Heck.

I still really like Death and have no regrets of our mentor.

Hard same.

This is one of those times. It's a pain but giving in and spending time with her is the fastest way to get her off your back. Hopefully this won't be too irritating. (Empathy: Medium)

EDIT: dunno if it has been mentioned yet but I hope we are all in agreement when I say that the mystery MG is our sister
