    Alright. So Mami, Madoka, Sakuya, or Homura.

    [X] The aqua-haired and brave teenager, who dreams of helping others

    Probably the easiest of them. Mami has likely already contracted, Homura won't trust us, and Homura won't let us get close to Madoka.

    Well, you could also visit Mami just to visit Mami, too. And yes, Kaminabey's already contracted with Mami.

    So how long ago in quest did Kaminabey come into existence? And is he just one kyubey body, or are there many of him? There could be some pretty major changes already if he's been around for a year or two, and can be all over like Kyubey usually can.

    Kaminabey is a singular individual (no multiple bodies shenanigans), and he really only came into his own about a month prior, when he finally managed to harness Spiral Power in a contract with Mami. As for how he came to be, he learned the true cost of his actions when his first true friend, Sarah Graham, lost her parents and ended up Witching out in 2001, and he first saw the anime Gurren Lagann in 2007 and started emulating Kamina in late 2009-early 2010. I'm setting this in the year PMMM aired, 2011, a reasonable time frame for him to fully learn how to do things and become the Kaminabey we know at the start of PMMM.

    Well that's good to know.

    OK. We can visit Mami later, catch up and keep up our friendship show we're different than who we were before. Without multiple bodies we have to be more careful about getting blasted though. So, Homura's still someone we need to avoid until we can convince her fully that we're a good guy. Because considering how much she hates Kyubey, she'd probably gun us down as soon as she sees us.

    Also, lets remember that while Kamina was awesome, it's primary success was encouraging everyone around him to be better than who they were a second before. So, that's what we should focus on.

    • After a second's thought, it strikes you - that aqua-haired girl that the pink-haired girl pals around with. Sakuya, was it...? No, Sayaka, that was her name! "Yeah, I think I'll hang with her for a bit," you say to yourself, adjusting your shades with a paw. Then, you're off, making your way down successively lower rooftops. At times, with your paws outstretched and cape fluttering, you look like some comic book animal, shades notwithstanding. Once you get low enough, though, you hop onto a car and take "the express" - one of your favorite ways to travel. There's just something about feeling the wind through one's fur that invigorates one's soul, you think to yourself.

    Occasionally, you hop onto other cars on your way to Sayaka's; by now, you know the roads, so getting around isn't too hard. It takes a good ten minutes, though - the traffic of Mitakihara is no joke. But even then, at one of the stoplights, you spot her. Sayaka Miki, the aqua-haired girl with a can-do attitude is walking along the sidewalk on her way to school. Her shortish hair sways in the breeze, a small smile crosses her lips, and she breathes in the spring air. "Another day, another batch of classes at Mitakihara Middle School," she mutters to herself. She hasn't seemed to notice you yet, so the big question is... how shall you go about introducing yourself?

    [] Observe from afar and be a creepy Incubator?
    [] Do the standard Incubator introduction... for giggles, of course. Just know the joke's only funny once.
    [] Simply say "hello" and strike up a conversation. Surely, a conversation partner can make a boring morning into a grand one.
    [] Do a Kamina and tell Sayaka to walk with her head held high. Could even ask her to call you "Bro".

    Is there really any other option?

    We are going for the Kamina method, after all

    Yup, shoulda expected this. It's not just a landslide, it's a total rock-topple. Closing votes on this one, and "doing a Kamina" got 100% of the vote.

    • With a final, confident nod, you jump off the car and land in front of Sayaka on three paws, giving the blue-haired girl a grin. "Hey, kid!"

    Sayaka tips her head to one side. "Uh... hi. Look, I've gotta get to school. See ya around," she mutters after a bit, turning to walk off.

    Before she can get far, though, you stop her in her tracks. "Walk with your head held high, Sayaka," you say, the cocky grin on your face becoming a sagely one.

    Sayaka pauses, turning to look at you with a puzzled expression on her face. "So, hold up, that was you talking?"

    "Yup! Name's Kyubey, but you can call me 'Bro'."

    "Well, you're a cat-weasel thing, and I'm a human." Sayaka scratches her head. "We can't be siblings."

    You put a paw on her foot. "Not like that! You see, you and I, we're siblings of the spirit! Soul-siblings!"

    "Soul-siblings?" Sayaka repeats, now beginning to grin slightly. "Sounds cool. Not sure what you mean, but it's cool."

    The two of you resume your walk, with you moving at a quick trot. "So, off to Mitakihara Middle School, eh? Can't say I see the appeal of being stuck inside for 8 hours a day. I like to roam with the sun shining down on me. Beautiful weather like this gets my blood pumping. Got any plans for today?"

    Sayaka shrugs. "Weather's good, but as for what my plans are? Eh, same old, same old. School year's just started and I already can't wait for summer break."

    "Ah, summer... you humans are so lucky to be able to enjoy fishing and playing games with each other. Makes me wish I had opposable thumbs."

    "I can imagine so," Sayaka replies. Ahead of the both of you is Hitomi, and even further ahead and closing rapidly is the pink-haired girl. "Well, Sayaka, I wish you the best of luck at school. And remember... once you've dug through, it means that you've won. Walk with that head held high, okay?"

    Sayaka nods. "Okay. Thanks, Kyubey!"

    Both you and Sayaka part ways for now, letting Sayaka visit with her friends as they walk to school. As you climb onto a tree, you mutter, "What to do..."

    [] "I'm hungry. A bite to eat should be just what I need."
    [] Snag a bite from the school's cafeteria.​
    [] Something from the nearby noodle shop smells good...​
    [] Are those snacks in that vending machine?​
    [] "Maybe I'll wander around for a while...
    [] ...could help me find that other fuzzy guy."​
    [] No reason, just feel like it. I like to wander."​
    [] "Stay here and watch the goings-on?"
    [] Do so while laying down​
    [] Do so while sitting up​
    [] Warm sunlight...
    [] A nice day with Mami

    • [X] A nice day with Mami

    Good. We've at least started being friendly Sayaka. Now, lets go meet up with Mami. Keep our friendship going and let her know we met Sayaka.

    After that we can find "That other fuzzy guy" who is probably another Kyubey. Then we can beat his ass.
