Magical Girl Internet Exploder

So I'm seeing this one, but no Firefox, or Chrome, or Safari, or Opera. Or any others of course, but those are the ones I can think of offhand. Also, what kind of powers would an MG have with an internet browser for a name?

Also, "fixed" the name for you.

Granted, most the other browser MGs have somewhat more generic names that wouldn't really connect to "internet browser" outside of context with IE, but even with that problem Firefox is still a viable name, and Chrome can be filled out to the full Google Chrome.

Beam Extension is good in that it will cut our damage in half but that just makes people less likely to die when hit by collateral damage. It doesn't actually reduce the amount of collateral damage since that mostly comes from Apocalypse.

Even when I use my fancy Word of Beta voice people still doubt me, smh.
Beam extension's literal function is making your beam bigger. Your issues with collateral have been because your beam is the size of a car. If you turn off the size magnifier, your beam will not be the size of a car anymore.

Yeah but none of them have Magical Girl personifications for me to make sheets of. IE did.

So does anyone else want to replace one of the MGs we meet with chatting with Gaia (3 MGs + Gaia instead of 4 MGs)?

For me its because

I think trying to turn off the Purifier Beam's AOE is a waste of time in the first place.
While I think it will reduce the size of the AOE, I don't think it will reduce it enough to actually matter. Size of Car =/= Size of Multiple City Blocks. That suggestion has always come accross to me as a "reduce it from 10 city blocks to 5 city blocks" type outcome, which doesn't help when the goal is "can be used indoors".

As an extension of this, something that never came up due to getting Beam Extension really early is that it was a requirement for this:

Well... considering Team GEAR has a little habit of leaving no survivors?

Hey now; we just completed a mission with six enemy survivors. The Maidens, WEAPONS, and Goddess White also technically survived their close encounter with Team GEAR so they should count as well!

In that case, its essentially the same thing as the idea of "turn off part of Supremacy Zone", because that ability you quoted was a prereq of Supremacy Zone.

Oh, I completely forgot about this for a while, but just remembered, James' in-story use of his "'Merely' Human" ability reminds me of this:

yeah but only one of those has an off button.

Either way, its another one of those things that we can't really try to do without a decent IC reason for it. And that basically requires having Insight let us know the details of our abilities IC.

Well actually...

@Gore17 do you think I should tell them about that one omake?

Crystalwatcher · Dec 13, 2017

This is probably going to be one hell of a daunting request, but anyone willing to go back and find all the omakes that were made since the last Reflections of the Kaleidoscope?

Sure.

Aight so, a while ago @Highwind wrote an omake about training collateral damage which, while not totally on target, was close enough to reach out and touch it. Y'all may want to take a look at it

[X] Plan Reunions, Plans, and Farewells
-[X] The Story of Peace
-[X] Visit the Command Tent
-[X] No Rest For The Wicked

[X] EXP Plan
-[X] Save it

I would love to join Sega right now.
Then we'll visit the Command Tent while Rei is in there.
And finally give our regards to Truth.

Reasoning (read - selling pitch)
1) Sega has Worry at 550%. We need to placate her. Also, we get to see Rev's reaction to the reversal of the event that originally sundered the Drives - and I wouldn't miss it for the world. Finally, there's Uni. We need adorable right now after being smacked around by one of the killiest girls on record.
2) We really do need to get a handle on the state of war. Otherwise we're just thrown into weird things one after another.
3) ...I'm actually picking this because it's a time-limited option, because Nepgear kinda needs the closure, and because my preferred option of "hang out with the Old Guard/fangasm over Silver Hero" is unavailable.

Finally, I am going to pester Sega until she unlocks INDESTRUCTIBLE FRAME regardless of anything else, so there's that.

We have her soul in us.

(Un)fortunately she's catatonic in there, so we can't talk to her.

Edit: ... Holy shit. Could we have had Jessica in our soul if we had put the bullet in her?

Absorbed it? Yes.

Have it inside us? No.

Speaking of exploding internets, what do you think is going to happen to ToHO's servers if Grey Champion reactivates her old admin account and posts a stickied thread with a selfie of her and the rest of the revived Old Guard?

I'm guessing 'bowling ball dropped into a bowl of pudding', myself.

I did what now?

I have to say, I never expected this sort of thing to happen, given my omakes are pretty damn cracky. What next, did we actually ruin Goddess Red's plans for a slumber party with the Old Guard? Can we regurgitate Truth's soul onto a blob of pink goo and revive her?

I can feel Truth's dissapointment emanating from wherever it is she is.

Crystalwatcher · Dec 13, 2017

I'm going to try to refrain from commenting about accuracy in guesses and omakes. Mostly because I've already given way too much away through Op-Sec.

Also...

... Considering getting them inside Anna involves killing them and eating their soul, I'm not sure whether I'm mildly horrified or very amused.

Probably both.

Dammit, all the jokes my brain is throwing out are all NSFW.

... And now I'm coming up with Anna being equipment NSFW jokes as well.

Dammit Crystal! Why did you make this so easy!

Pointing out, for those new people who shouldn't have to dig through 700 pages to get this, that coup-de-grace'ing Jessica was listed as one of the early ways to die. It would have put Solid Core into a dark mindset and led to her trying to kill Goddess Grey. GGrey vs a newb Nepgear in quest was Nep just sobbing about her new family getting attacked, which cute-fu'd Grey into leaving. A berserk Nepgear would have been dead'd by swords.

I think it's less eating and more their soul getting stuck in Solid Core's fluff. Eating implies more intent than seems to be the case.
