The easiest place to get to from the fire would be to hide inside the burning house. It also doubles as the least likely place for us to search

We need to keep morale up of we're going to be spending ages doing this guys. I don't think that we can let this meal be just a perfunctory thing- it needs to be something that will refresh everyone and leave them ready to keep looking.

 
So....we still haven't actually seen where Sayaka is. Not a problem yet, but [shadowruns]

Did we try checking for Oriko at Mitakihara yet?

    • You let the smirk fade from your face, and glance at Mami. "So, on a completely unrelated note," you begin in a perfectly level voice, "maybe it's time go and find something to eat?"

    Mami nods, one hand coming up to cover her mouth. "Yes, I agree."

    "How about it, Homura? I'm sure we can spare the time," you address the black haired girl.

    She glares at you, but relents quickly. "Fine." She raises her shield, and with a clicking of the gears, produces an instant ramen cup, which she tosses to you, and a second one to Mami.

    You reflexively catch the cup of instant noodles, as does Mami. She looks down at the plastic cup with an unhappy frown, turning it over in her hands. Homura sits at the edge of the roof, facing in, and puts down her cup beside her, before reaching behind her shield again. This time, she produces a... what the hell, Homura?

    Your thoughts grind to a halt as the time traveller pulls a kettle, with steam still wafting from the spout, from behind her shield. "Open the cup noodles," Homura instructs with a hint of irritation and a slight gesture with the kettle. Neither you nor Mami have moved to open your cup noodles, and she looks dismayed to have to eat instant food.

    "No, Homura," Mami says firmly, looking up at her.

    "It's the middle of the night, it's cold, we're h- hunting a dangerous magical girl..." she reels off. "We'd all feel better if we had something that isn't instant food, Homura."

    Homura sighs, closing her eyes for a moment, but eventually seems to come to the decision that it's not worth the effort to try and dissuade Mami. When she reopens her violet eyes, she grits out, "Fine. What do you suggest, then?" The kettle is returned to her shield, and she reclaims the instant noodles.

    "My apartment," Mami says firmly. "We should check it, in any case, and perhaps yours too, after we eat. I believe I should be able to cook something even with the timestop."

    Homura raises one shoulder in a minute shrug, and makes a little 'go ahead' gesture with her hand. There's a tiny, tiny quirk of what might be a nostalgic smile on her face as she watches Mami turn to lead the way back to her apartment, though, that you might've missed had you not been watching her closely.

    The three of you arrive at Mami's apartment without incident, or stumbling across errant magical girls along the way. The door is opened with some trepidation by Mami, but everything turns out to be normal and undisturbed.

    Mami peers down at the boots of her magical girl outfit, before dismissing them in a flash of golden light and walking into the apartment. You raise an eyebrow at her, and frown down at your own boots. You've just seen a practical demonstration, so... ah.

    Your own boots disappear, too, and you walk into the apartment, past Mami, who's holding the door open. "Come in, Homura," she invites.

    The black haired time traveller hesitates for a moment, but dismisses her high heeled shoes and walks in.

    "OK!" Mami says, closing the door behind Homura. "I'll just prepare something simple, then," she says, moving to the kitchen with ribbons blossoming out ahead of her.

    Why wouldn't Homura carry a kettle of boiling water?

    • That's hilarious Firn, and fairly feelsworthy with Homu remembering the early loops...before she remembers Mumi went Tetris.

    Now is the perfect time to talk to Homu about Mumi and Liches.
     
    [x] Talk to Homura
    -[x] While whispering, see what Homura wanted to ask you about earlier.
    --[x] If it's a personal question, respect Mami's privacy.

    [x] Find Mami's sling bag. You can put your grief marbles in there for now.

    [x] If there's some time left, see if Mami needs help with anything.

    Perfect silence other than us, whispers probably carry. Just write it down. Homura carries a kettle of boiling water, presumably in case she ends up in Jusenkyo, I'm sure she has a pen and paper.
     
    Mami would be making noise preparing whatever it is she's making. If Homura is paranoid enough, they can both move farther away from the kitchen.

    edit: reading up on it more, sound needs air to carry. How air works in a timestop is still unknown.

    *sigh* If there's still worries about Mami overhearing then this is probably not a good conversation to have right now. Also, if I were to go maximum shadowruns, writing it down instead has it's own problems.

    Blech... vote changed.

    we DO need to talk to homu about it eventually. Mumi will probably be more stable, especially with us around, to receive the news in perhaps a week or soemthing.

    Considering that you have been helping out with breakfast and lunch without complaint from Mami? Pretty well.

    If you were carrying instant noodles with the express intent of eating it, and were trivially able to carry boiling water with you, why wouldn't you do so?

    I love how Homura has a kettle of boiling water with her at all times. It's probably inescapable that having a bag of timestopped holding would turn a person into the ultimate hoarder. I can't help but wonder what else is stuffed in there. Famous landmarks stolen from previous loops? Japan's gold reserves? A giant pyramid made up of every brand and flavor of instant noodle in the world?
