Switching back to this variant. Flandre getting curious about and distracted with interesting stuff is too good to pass up. 
Will switch back to the main bandwagon (first line only) if some "lol!violence" bandwagon starts gaining traction.

You decide to wait for her to come back - you really aren't sure what to do right now, or even whether you're going to be in trouble or anything, so it seems like the best option. And Headless has already waited a long time for you to talk again, so a bit longer shouldn't matter too much. At least, you hope it won't .... But since you don't know how long Nanoha will be gone, you quickly go through the room to see if there's anything interesting to do while you wait. The windows don't have any drapes that you can see, but the time of day is wrong for sunlight to be streaming in anyway, so you're fine. You glance at the screens that Nanoha was looking at - three of them are blank, one shows you carrying Vita, one has a bunch of words in an alphabet you've never seen before, and two of them have odd images that probably relate to Vita, but don't make any sense to you - and at some of the machines ... none of which make any sense to you. You shrug and pull one of the chairs up by Vita's bed to watch her. You can be patient when you need to be, after all - if you couldn't, you'd be insane!
You sit and stare at her. Her breathing is soft and she doesn't snore. She looks peaceful and quiet, whereas awake she seemed a brash warrior. You measure her face, her proportions - when she's your servant, you will have to know that she is her, not a doppelganger, and the only way to know for sure is to know how her muscles can move, can be stretched in natural and unnatural movement ... watching her face as she sleeps doesn't tell you a lot, but it does get you used to what she looks like, and it's the start of the process. Only a short start, however, as while you're examining the twists and curls of her braids, Nanoha, Shamal, and the blonde woman walk in.
"I hope I wasn't gone too long, Flandre," Nanoha says with a smile. "She probably won't wake up for a while, though, so you don't need to watch her so closely." You start to frown at her when you notice the blonde woman is holding your parasol! You dart out of the chair towards her, startling Shamal out of the way and sliding to a halt in front of her; you're prepared to snatch the parasol away from her, but she holds it out to you with a smile, and you politely take it from her.
"You must have left it in the bathroom when you changed earlier," she says. Her voice is soft and quiet - you have a hard time seeing her as someone dangerous - and she cups your cheek in one hand. "Are you alright? It doesn't hurt?" You're confused for a moment, then realize that she must be referring to when the other woman hit you. You smile and shake your head.
"Nope! I'm fine, really!" She smiles as you continue. "It didn't hurt at all, actually, but I'm really glad you wanted to help me." It's been a long time since someone besides Remilia has actually tried to help you without being pushed into it.
"Ah, it's good that you two get along so well," Nanoha says, and you look at her curiously. She smiles a bit sadly. "I have some work to do with Shamal, so Fate will be taking care of you for now, Flandre." On the one hand, you're concerned because you have no idea what sort of 'work' they could be doing together ... and you certainly don't like being shuffled off from one person to the next without so much as a request. On the other ... you can't actually think of anything to balance it. Still, you don't really have any plans at the moment, so you don't have a good reason for not going, and you nod slowly. Fate takes your hand and guides you down the hall.
"I know it must be irritating, not really knowing what's going on, but there's another reason that we wanted you to talk with me," she says, and your eyes flick over to her. "This unit is a very new one, and one of my jobs here is investigation, because my former duty was criminal investigation. General Gaiz actually had a point, earlier, when he said we weren't really equipped to take care of you while performing our normal duties ... really, I don't know why they insisted on barging in here and trying to force us to send you away, when if they'd waited a day or so for us to make sure you were alright we probably would have sent you to them or the Church anyway ...." She frowns in thought for a moment, and you relax a bit as she shakes her head. "Anyway, the more you can tell me about your home and how to get there, the sooner we can get you there - I'm sure your family must be getting worried about you."
You frown a bit. You're really not all that sure how much help you can be to them in terms of getting you back home, since all you know is that the normal entrance is supposed to be at the Hakurei Shrine ... and you're not really sure you want to go home yet, anyway. And if you get taken home by these people, you'll be a laughingstock even after you tell people about the other city! So ... what can you do to convince them to let you stay? You don't want to make them think you don't like it at home, since that would probably mean they'd try to attack Remilia - which would be funny, yes, but then Vita might not want to go with you. You look to the side and see a small group of people: the four humans who met with Signum, the hatchling dragon, and a small white-haired fairy.

Remember, our magic is caput because this place apparently makes it hard to gather mana.
I thought that was because of those anti-magic devices. Is it an issue with this world, instead?

Flandre's primary method of 'gathering' mana is by drinking blood. To be more specific, she's a metaphysical furnace that turns newly-spilled blood into oodles of energy - and she's been downright gorging herself recently compared to the relatively piddling amounts that Remilia was feeding her before. Her 'local storage' is high, although if she blows through that she's far more likely to drink more blood and refuel that way than to wait for it to draw from her 'bank,' mainly because it's a lot faster. Older blood still gives good benefits - certainly more than enough for 'topping off' if she doesn't engage in too strenuous activities.

Remilia Scarlet frowned as she stared at the map on the wall. Normally she would be at a church right now, watching as the humans in one of the towns or cities under her control celebrated their feast day, showing them that faith alone was not enough to drive away this devil. If a priest showed exceptional bravery - and politeness - she would invite him to her home ... though that happened less and less often as time passed. Instead she remained in her keep, setting plans and ensuring her situation wouldn't destabilize any further.
She and her sister had started with nothing, had taken what they could and defended it against the wolves who sought to take it from them in turn. Over a century, that small territory had grown - not much, in the relative scale of things - thanks primarily to Remilia's foresight. But now, the wolves had formed a pack, a grand coalition that sought to take their home and bury them, forgotten and apart. She knew that what drew itself against them was not merely a human threat - she and her sister could slaughter any conceivable mundane force - but she was unable to penetrate the magical defenses to learn just what it was that opposed her. She lacked the resources to hire and sustain noteworthy magicians, and those who had grown with her territory were unimpressive.
Still ... she had an army, competent and well-led; she had sorcerous support; she had her own talents ... and she had her sister. She turned when she heard the footstep. Her sister ... she frowned at the entity that stood before her, looking around the library as though it were a whole new world. When the wandering eyes set upon her, they blazed.
"Remeeleea! Hee, hee."
"Yes. And you would be ... Headless, if I remember Flandre correctly?" Her sister's madness was growing, and Remilia had hoped that her delusions were simply that. Unfortunately, it seemed that was not the case.
"Hee! You remembered! I am ... pleased ...." She looked like Flandre - except more aggressive, more hateful, more ... brutal. But still her. They had met before, though Remilia had thought her sister was simply playing a trick - but she knew better, now. Whether the entity was some sort of malignant outsider, or simply a facet of Flandre's madness manifesting separately, Remilia did not know. It seemed to not be the former, but that could simply be her own inadequacies regarding magical investigations. If it was the latter ... perhaps she could, eventually, force the entity into its own shell, and destroy it? But what would that do to her sister, to destroy something that was linked to her mind? Would it damage her? Remove that aspect from her? Cure her?
"Yes, I remember a lot of things. However, I do have tasks I must accomplish, so I must be short with you - what is it that you want?"
"Hee .... I want a sister. I want ... more sisters. Could we make more sisters, Flandre and I?"
"Sisters?" Remilia frowned. She was not particularly opposed to the spread of vampires, though she kept in mind the necessities of her species, and the weaknesses. Headless shook her head, and her manic grin spread even wider.
"No! More sisters. More ...." She jerked, speeding to one of the wooden chairs sitting by a window. She raised an arm and brought it crashing through the chair, sending splinters and fragments flying through the room. "More ... sisters." Her breathing hitched, her eyes widened, and she seemed to slump in exhaustion - then Flandre shook her head, blinked owlishly, and rushed over to hug her sister.
"Sister! Hehe! What are you doing?" She seemed ignorant of what had just happened, and Remilia smiled back.
"Making plans, as always, Flandre. We are going to be attacked soon, after all."
"Aww." Flandre pouted, then wrapped her arms around Remilia's waist and lifted her up, hugging her as she pirouetted around the room. "Why don't we just go out together and kill them all?" She giggled, and Remilia patted her on the head, asking to be set down.
"We may, if it comes to that, but we aren't facing only humans - there is sorcery blocking my efforts to determine just what we are facing." She kissed her sister's forehead, then drew her into a hug. "We have an army for a reason, after all - let them see what we face. If what we face has power, the battle will draw it out. But if my fears are unfounded, we two shall make a most beautiful example of our foes."
"Hehe! You worry too much, Remilia."
