Magical Girl Escalation Taylor (Worm/Nanoha)

Reader mode
I'm torn. On the one hand, hanging out with Laura would be my top choice, but I don't want to feed the shipping fire, and that subvote is winning...
You know what, I'll risk it.

[x] Laura on a run on the beach
-[x] If Missy's that bad, maybe Laura has picked up on it too? If she has guessed, she may be able to provide additional advice. If things are going really well, see if we can ask about the Warlocks, but DON'T push it if that's too sensitive.​

[X] Kayleigh at the resort's spa
- [X] Take Kayleigh's suggestion, no cape talk at all, and relax.
 
[x] Laura on a run on the beach
-[x] If Missy's that bad, maybe Laura has picked up on it too? If she has guessed, she may be able to provide additional advice. Ask her if she ever hangs out with other capes outside of work like Kayleigh suggested to you

I was tempted to pick Missy (specifically, to talk with her about things we can do together that aren't 'work' related), but we can do that after the vacation's over. This is a really good chance to feel out/get to know Laura.

Edit: altered the sub-vote.

I gave you a bit of a hint here:

We never really thought we ever would get powers. But then the Warlocks—"

Kayleigh cuts herself off and nibbles on her bottom lip, clearing the screen and two more afterwards. "But then some stuff happened," she tries again. "Bad stuff. And Laura started acting different. She was even more closed off than ever, started hanging out less. I thought it was just she was still shaken up over what happened, so I gave her space like Mom and Daddy said I should, but it didn't get better. Then… more bad stuff happened, and it became obvious that something even more wrong was going on. I confronted her about it because I was worried about her, and after just a little pushing she told me everything.

but to make it more obvious, this is pretty heavily implying that the Warlocks were involved in Laura's Trigger Event. You MIGHT not want to ask about that right now.

More Laura, but no sudden dating please. It's OOC.

We should probably change that then.

As much as shipping fuel would be amusing, I think getting more advice for Missy is for the best.

.... And I've got work tomorrow, and then research.

Fire and Ice omake chapter 3 and 4 will be based off of Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask.

And maybe befriending.

Chapter 5 will be hot tubs and snuggles where (—_-__) and (—————-) find true love.

Yuri-for life!

- Laura

( stay tuned for chapter 7 - Dragon gets in on it and thing get FREAKY real and hot as hell )

Another three targets fall to the other girl's shooting in the time it takes you to aim at one. "Even if you hadn't warned me ahead of time she was a cape, I would have figured it out. Laura gets her switch stuck sometimes, but Missy's is totally broken off. I don't know if she even knows how to not act a cape anymore." The accuracy of that statement is startling, and you whip your head around to stare at the other girl.

Kayleigh continues to be an interesting and badass character, before she even gets an "extra" like powers, and Taylor absolutely is in need of her friendship as much as Missy needs some.

How awfully conveinent that we can offer her a package gift where the ability to do all that is basically the default before other specialties :V :V Wonder how she'd react to hearing about our trip to Australia and elsewhere, or the dino-planet with bonus tribal cults?

Silently Watches said:
It doesn't have to be with normal, non-cape people – like, if you and Laura went out for dinner and a movie or something, that'd work fine – but hanging out just with capes means you're more likely to slip into turning it into caping stuff.

Is it bad that I actually found that really subtle? >_> Like sure, us readers know her motivation well enough to spot it instantly, but Taylor? She tucked that in as an aside that totally fit with her suggestion to do normal-teen stuff, and even downplayed the Laura option indirectly (after directly naming her) by saying theres a downside to inviting a cape. But lovely that Kayleigh's put the idea in her head with this chapter ^__^

:cry::cry2:😭 How you gonna do us like this? And after the voting stage referenced the social-score that would help with such a thing....... well, maybe the combination of talking about our safari trips and being able to help ground her friends (and not be damsel-on-the-sidelines or waiting at home) would tempt her ?

Relatedly, I wonder if any of these characters like Anime..... Tim and Dragon I feel totally would :3 but Kayleigh or Perfect Storm? Point being we need to get them watching "Irregular at Magic School" so we can get Kayleigh some magical Gun Device like the main character of that show.

Do we need to be explicit if we want the parenthetical to be a total self-lie :V ? The subtext seems clear to me.

The thing about this is.... after that talk with Kayleigh, about needing to do normal-teen stuff, having the Character intentionally act Out-of-Character in asking is the entire point . Shes taking Kayleighs advice and going out on a limb to see if it helps, just like when she took Samantha's advice and went to that party where she first met and danced with Laura. (And anyway, I refer again to Taylor's line from a chapter or two ago, specifically saying "Its not surprise Laura wasn't interested in beach jocks considering her choice of dance partners". Whats that tell you about Taylor's choice in this Fic? )

What the hell. We're all a bunch of dirty shippers. not to mention that the one other cape there is probably gonna have some good advice for how to handle the Missy situation, soo...

Is this a crack vote? Almost definitely. Will I regret it? 50/50 either way tbh

Besides also being an opportunity to seek more advice on the Missy front, it's also a chance to lead by example in the whole not always doing cape stuff!

And as an aside, just want to say Silently, you are quite good at making one think of how screwed up it is to have kids as the fighting action types... Not something you really think about much in all the anime that have such.

Yeah, Taylor is really bad at this thing called 'relaxation'.
Imagine, instead all of these heavy conversations we could have gotten involved into Cassiel's shenanigans.

She would need to have a B+ LC, but other than that, yeah.

Well, keep in mind that Kayleigh doesn't know about magic. She's thinking about parahuman/shard-based powers, which all come with different flavors of mental trauma.

If we're being totally honest, Taylor was pulled into the dance and went along with it because she didn't know what else to do. And calling Cailleach sexy that one time was just the concussion talking. She doesn't currently see herself as being attracted to other girls.
