[X] Try to explain that being a Magical Girl is an incredibly traumatic experience that left you and Kyouko with night terrors and several neuroses through the years.
-[X] Also explain what Minako's seen: The girl just now, and the giant Grief Seed.
-[X] In other words, you were scared shitless to talk about it with them. Are scared shitless.
-[X] You lied to them, and you hated it, but the idea of talking with them about it terrified you.
-[X] This is not an excuse or an explanation or an apology. Not yet. Ask them to walk with you home. Explain that it doesn't matter very much if you talk about it here or there, but when you're home, at least you three can shout and cry without any gawkers.
[X] I should have told you earlier, but I always justified it to myself by saying you were too young. I was too young. We all were.
[X] The world of magic is a world of death. Magical Girls die. They die early, they die often, and once you're in you can't ever back out.
-[X] The first magical girl I met died less than a week later. She was smart, and talented, and a great person. None of that mattered. I saw a Witch bite her head off.
-[X] I was fourteen when that happened. That's... way too young to see the things that I had to. I was determined to make sure you never would.
[X] I don't want you to make my mistakes. I don't want you to suffer the way I had to.
