I meant as a path that will be very hard to step off of later, rather than an immediate consequence.
Eh. We want to get on good terms with Mami since Homura's only real questions for Walpurgisnight are a)will you be a liability, b)will you make a Madoka death or Contract likely. We can work on therapy for her more slowly than Mami.
 
[x] Polite, thankful and indecisive for the tone
[x] If we need to pick one, go with Mami. Apologize to Homura, thank her for her offer, and say we'll talk to her again sometime.

We'll need to stop Mami from making the biggest mistake of her life, stop them all from alienating Homura completely, and we also need to hit Sayaka with a freakin' clue-by-four before she makes her wish.

But how are we going to field test the Witch-degrief theory without a test subject? :D

Ask her to actually ask Mami if she can heal Kyousuke, when we're less of a complete outcast/stranger and more of a trusted acquaintance.

[x] Go with Mami.
[x] Telepathy Homura.
-[x] You'll keep in touch, and there's no reason you can't still do whatever she wanted you around for.
 
[q]Wander off and witch out alone and in despair despite your powerset.
[q]Become the Witch of "hahahahaha NOPE"

:D
Well, if we're [Armstrong]using grief as a power source ... to end grief as a power source![/Armstrong], does that mean we'd be the Witch of Joy, who delights in the perpetual struggle of the Incubators' system? :tongue:
 
Oh my god are you people really going with yellow-bitch seriously? Mami is an awful person!

[X] Thank Mami for the offer but acknowledge that it would be very very rude to go with her when we've already agreed to live with someone else, who is still here and listening.
[X] Go home with Homu.
 
Know what? We haven't really had a quest yet where Homu is our second. *shrug* Why not.

Technically we haven't agreed to go with Homu yet. Firn put an offscreen acceptance two updates ago but that was probably retconned with the previous vote.
 
Yellow bitch is a sad, lonely girl who puts on a mask to conceal the fact she's about one major revelation away from snapping. She's also got two of three other potential team members on her side (and that's not counting Kyouko...), can be kept alive with some effort, and is probably going to be better for minmaxing Sabrina's powers than Homu would be...even with the called attacks she'd inevitably go for. :p

Homura's more or less "stable", and is far, far less likely to open up/give useful information. We definitely want to keep in contact with her since she's much more reliable than Mami and we have to mend bridges, but leaving Mami is a misstep at this point. The Homura route'll probably close more doors than it opens- it'll make dealing with Mami herself trickier, the Sayaka thing'll be even more of a headache than it already is, Homura herself isn't exactly forthcoming/a people person and is doing this at least in part to make dealing with us easier if we need a gangland execution...And Murderface stopped trusting anyone about 90 loops back, let alone the anomaly with swiss cheese for a brain.

Right now, Homura is definitely more dependable overall, but that's exactly why we shouldn't go with her. Mami gives more short-term opportunities- and is a timebomb. You don't deal with timebombs by walking off and hoping they defuse.

Let's not risk things half an episode before the Cheese Incident- If we're not there if it happens, Madoka is, and Mami has even more reason to resent Homura...

This must be some obscure definition of 'reliable' I was previously unaware of. Does 'can be relied upon to sacrifice us at a moment's notice for her own ends' really count? :tongue:
 
Mami taking being lonely worse than Homura, (as far as we know) is literally the only reason i vote for her.

Yes because compared with the rest of the cast, she's still Teammate of the Year. :p

I mean, being completely predictable in her actions? Having a defined goal that makes sense? Not senselessly sacrificing herself at the worst possible time? What more could you ask for?

I don't get where people gather this Homura is heartless shit from. She never stops trying to help Sayaka and Kyoko even though she knows that it's useless. She still tries to save Mami even though she's better off not bothering with what the bitch always tying her up and leaving her to die.

She's still got enough compassion to try, beyond "it'd upset Madoka that these people are dead" and despite her own words, but it's not something we can rely on- especially given the last time she ran into a strange meguca unexpectedly.
