Aren't we all mad here?

And we still don't have a hat yet.

We had one once, but Mami dispelled her Chibi.

Aside:

I want us to start putting a thin lining of solid grief in our coat, so we can make it billow dramatically at-will.

A microlayer of Grief would also give us armor if someone tries to gank us. Social and science in perfect accord.

We've been ignoring that for so long... No, you know what?

That time we did give ourselves an under-coat of Grief? We should not have stopped doing it.

That's where we failed.

Damn it. That is a major setback.

Wait, we did that? When?

In Sendai, I think.

Firn had posted some pic/video of some game to point out how much bulkier Sabrina looked with the undercoat of Grief on.

EDIT: It was part of the armor. We should have kept the Grief undercoat, just thinner!

Firnagzen said:
Armour time. You concentrate. Grief flows onto your form, solid pieces locking into place to form a simple, smooth armour plates under your coat. The Grief ripples along your arms and legs, enclosing them in cool, comfortable plating. A small dome covers your Soul Gem.

Finally, a helmet - you briefly debate fully covering your eyes with a transparent plate made out of Grief, but decide against it for now. You glance aside at Mami, and she smiles at you, looking faintly quizzical. You return the smile, and then look back at Chouko, fluttering in the distance.

Is there really?

You might need to check your eyes.

You're not Sabrina. You're Yang who is cosplaying as Sabrina.

Isn't FanficAddict a part of Sabrina too?

cmwatford · Jul 4, 2017

We are all sabrina. Tremble in fear.

I'd giggle if Niko (?) tries to get a read on us with her book and it turns into a 4D mess of a fractal "book"

NIKO: Oh fuck no.

The book thing is Umika. It'd be interesting to see the results if we let her get a read on us.

It might be just like when Sayaka tried to copy Sabrina.

Now Riona. Riona might be able to see something.

I know at this point the bandwagon is pretty much already decided, but I'll put up a minority vote with @Karnewarrior's idea integrated:

[X] Hug and comfort Homura. Be empathetic and understanding, and cleanse regularly throughout.
-[X] Very gently and carefully: You know what happened. How Madoka asked not to let Kyuubey trick her again.
--[X] Or is this something you're wrong about too?
--[X] If she feels more comfortable showing us than telling us, we may be able to grief up something that could convert her memories to film or something. She'd still be in control.
--[X] But keeping Madoka from being tricked doesn't mean keeping her in the dark.
-[X] Explain why you think Madoka wouldn't wish, from your knowledge of loops that didn't happen.
-[X] Reassure Homura that you won't tell Madoka about it if Homura doesn't want you to, but you can help her with it. She's not alone anymore.

We need to start checking our assumptions, because our metaknowledge is crapping out on us in unexpected places, and it's only a matter of time until we're wrong about something genuinely important.

"Hunh. Maybe the time is off? Lemme try again."

Kaoru, aside to Michiru: "The time is off?"

"...Well I'm not sure how you're trying again, but alright."

*A quiet chiming can be heard*

"..."

*Reads book, wondrous light playing over her face.*

"Okaaaaaaay... I did not know I could do that."

*Shows book to Kaoru and Michiru*

"Oh, wow."

"Wait, seriously?"

"What?"

"It was the oldest video I could think of."

We should make a note to ask Homu more about Osaka's grief girl when the conversation can turn back to her. We kind of hard counter her and she's a natural threat to everyone else in her area until we address her.

Karnewarrior · Jul 5, 2017

We're rather short on time to trek down to Osaka and fight a supervillainess right now.

I'd be fine with doing it after we have a small contingent of Arabic badasses to watch Mitakihara for us, but until then, I have to vote against spreading ourselves too thin.

We'll probably have some free time later in the week. Mami's in school for like eight hours out of the day, we have to kill time somehow.

Don't kill time. Time is necessary, and killing time would reduce Homumom's magical abilities.

Bah! Time has a serious overpopulation problem. 4.35x1017 seconds is just too many! It's time to thin the herd.

Same argument applies more strongly to Iowa and we asked about them. Better to have information for when we can use it.

Karnewarrior · Jul 5, 2017

That's true. I'm worried that thread ADHD might cart us away to Osaka though.

Oh well, I mostly follow this thread for the story more than the gameplay anyway.

Speaking of gameplay, any thoughts to whether my vote is worth commenting on? Or are we just going to keep assuming that everything we "know" is accurate?
