Puella Magi Adfligo Systema

Which is kinda my point. If you're aware that megucas are a nightmare to put down, to the extent that your first resort is to make with the third-degree burns, a bit of dismemberment not being as fatal as common sense would dictate shouldn't be that much of a surprise.

And, nah, their priority target was bestgirl -
(Probably 'cos Mami's widely know to be deeply scary).

But Kyouko's not here?

I corrected 'Mami' to 'Kirika' because she's the one that got knocked off the roof.

It was dismemberment followed by one hell of a Tiro Finale that punched her through a building.

I forgot that Moe was still conscious, though. So they should know she's still alive.

@Ugolino I retract my objection to not waking up Moe first. It doesn't actually give us any advantages.
 
[x]Please do.
[x]This way'll be better for everyone in the long run. We promise.
[x]Give Sendai their gems back. Hang onto Akiko for now until we can talk to her. We want to try and find out what's wrong with her, and help her if we can.
[x]We're going to wake Fukushima, and talk to them, ask them about how many seeds they have back home.
-[x]Did they say anything about that to you? Anything about them you can tell us? Do you think they'd go for a similar cleansing deal?
[x]Start with the Metalbender. Keep her restrained with Kirika's help. Ask Sendai and Mami to help keep her calm.
-[x]Her friends are okay. We don't want to hurt her. The war's over. They lost, and hurt a lot of people doing it.
[X]What the hell were you thinking by taking the fight onto a crowded freeway?
[x]Before we let you go, tell me about your group. Why did you take Akiko's offer?


Sorry, Ugo, I still think starting with Atsuko is a better idea, if only because I don't want to take the risk of further souring our reputation with the Fukushima girls.

"Dead" or "dying" doesn't have much difference for a MG body. We knocked her unconcious during the fight after she had been dismembered, which could easily have been interpreted as her expiring.
 
Actually I agree with Ugo. Moe's the better call.

@Cannongerbil

eh, not attached to any particular vote but if we're waking Kuvira, I hope we're calling her on her shit with the colossus.

[]What the hell were you thinking by taking the fight onto a crowded freeway?
 
Whoever we choose to interrogate first, you know as soon as we ask Kirika to help restrain her, she's gonna do that thing where she perches on the girl with her claws out and glares at her face? Kirika a cute.

I'd rather settle the Fukushima problem and get rid of them before we get started with the grief seeds, though. They don't really have much of a role here beyond "learn more about them, find out how badly they need seeds, send them off".

Well, either way could work. I'll approach it from the side of grief seeds first; you can handle waking up Fukushima first.

Main purpose here is to defuse the stress that's built up in both groups. Sendai can have a private vent on their own, away from us (telepathy isn't sufficient for that), and UG can come to grips with not having their lives hanging by a thread. By the time they get back, everyone should be calmer, which should also make it easier to keep Fukushima calm when they get woken up.

Following immediately on this bit of conversation:

Yumi sighs. "Shall we... go retrieve the Grief Seeds now?" she asks. "And... if you don't mind my asking, what's to be done with Akiko and our... allies from Fukushima?"

[] Sure, go ahead and do that. We'll wait here for you.
[] Return their soul gems.
[] Akiko — I'm not sure yet; we need to find out what's going on with her.
[] Fukushima are mercs, and have to suffer the penalty of that lifestyle. Since they lost, they don't get paid. There may also be penalties for the collateral damage they caused. We'll have to see how reasonable they are when we wake them up, but that will have to wait until you're back, to help smooth things over.
[] While waiting on the Sendai group to get back, ask Mami to set up seats so people can be more comfortable.
[] Speak with Noa. She was acting like she had some questions she wanted to ask.

As others have pointed out, I don't like this phrase. It really feeds our current "Sabrina's way" problem. Suggesting:
[]Please do. And thank you for giving this way a chance.

If this is to be said to Sendai, it's the wrong way to say it. We, uh, have a reputation for being tactless, right from the initial encounter. No way does Sakura not express a lot of discontent over that. Frankly, I'd rather private message Yumi and explain our intentions more fully. Not sure on the phrasing, but I'll think it over.

Seems silly to ask if they'd go for a similar cleansing deal. Why would they possibly refuse, if it was no strings attached? I'd strike that sentence entirely.

There would be strings attached. Things like 'don't use us as a magic battery and then abuse your powers against other people', and maybe 'how about you stop this 'mercenary' business of yours since you won't be needing for grief seeds anymore'?

Of course, but we don't know what the strings are going to be before we wake them, and even afterwards we probably won't be sure, so asking Sendai "would they go for it" is pointless.
 
[X] Ugolino.
Waking up Moe first means we can have her wake up her friends for us. Also, can she teleport or not? I seem to remember Firn saying she couldn't, but I'm not sure.

They know the group better. It's not pointless to ask for their evaluation of their response.

Yeah, that's the idea, especially for Ramiel. We have her gem anyway, but I don't think she can.

However, I will go ahead and reconstruct it.

[] Agree to let them retrieve the grief seeds. The rest will wait here for them to get back.
[] Return their soul gems.
[] Re: Akiko — Unsure until we find out what's going on with her.
[] Re: Fukushima — No pay; possible penalties for collateral damage. Will wait to wake them up until Sendai gets back.
[] While waiting on the Sendai group to get back, ask Mami to set up seats so people can be more comfortable.
[] Unwind a bit.
[] Speak with Noa. She was acting like she had some questions she wanted to ask.

We don't know for sure. Firn said that her powers isn't actually teleporting, so the current theory is that she has super speed while in darkness, though that still has a few holes.

The main reason why I want to wake Atsuko first is because if we end up having to restraint Moe for whatever reason, Kirika is going to have to get involved, and her method of restraining people isn't exactly conducive to building good relations. That and the fact that I kinda want us to be abit wary of her, what with her being the first one so far who has come close to defeating us in straight up combat.
 
We should already be using Kirika's antimagic though, and not waking the rest until we're done with her. Wariness is less of a factor when we have her soul gem- and we should deal with the biggest threat first if that's the case.

Your earlier point about leaving her for last becuase she's the biggest threat is valid, though. Get help from her friends in calming ehr down.

Absolutely none. There's the fact that cleansed grief seeds get their grief absorbed by/shove their grief into other grief seeds, and that's that.
 
Even Sakura couldn't really threaten us while we were holding her gem. Attack your captor (who is literally holding your soul, and the souls of your
friends) while they are surrounded by their friends and you are alone? Even if she is foolish enough to try that, she's just gonna get pounded again.

Nil, barring the hyposaturated grief seeds.

Damn it. Well, we can only hope for the future.
