Ehhhh with the reference "I've been waiting for this moment" is ominous at best. Without it, it sounds... off? It's not quite right. Not a good way to put it.
 
The only material gain Sabrina gets from this is some money stolen from gangsters. We get literally nothing out of mundane weapons, and could make superior grief versions for most purposes if we desperately needed one anyway. (I suppose a sniper rifle to supplement our range wouldn't be entirely useless, unless lasers work the way we think they might.) This trip is more about helping Homura get more stuff than she otherwise might, discussing certain things with Homura, and maybe putting together the vague skeleton of the Walpurgisnacht plan.
Grief railgun? We could get ammo for it?
 
[X] Any vote that has Sabrina being excited about the "shopping trip" with Mom.

Seriously, the "Holy Quintet" is the closest thing Sabrina has to family. She has no-one else besides them, no-one that she knows from before meeting Madoka and Sayaka in that alleyway.

The problem with any projectile made of grief is that it will dissipate as soon as it leaves our 100m range.

We should be able to use a grief gun, so long as we load it with "normal" bullets.

The thing is, manipulating metal within our range isn't difficult with our power set. What, exactly, do you want to use as ammunition for the railgun? Because we can just turn I-beams into lances of death pretty easily.

OK, how about this:

Sabrina: "Since we're here, all my attacks have a range of 100m or shorter. I'm thinking I could pick up something to round up my offensive skills?"

Homura: "..."

Sabrina: "I-I mean... I don't have hammerspace... ironically... but I could grief up any weapon I wanted; problem's I can't do the same with the ammunition. Maybe I can pick up some...?"

Homura: "..."

Sabrina: "Unless there's a problem with that? I don't want to steal your shtick..."

Homura: "... It's fine."

Because we really don't need a pointless Homucifer reference or to act like a fucking kindergartener.
 
Something for next time we see Sayaka.

Did she invite Kyousuke to the picnic?

"Is the picnic confirmed, then?" Sayaka asks, waving her fork at you.

"Maybe? Probably," you say. "Why?"

"Ah, nothing," she says.

Madoka nudges her. "Sayaka?"

The bluenette blushes. "Nothing, I said."

... you think you can guess.

Mami leans forward, nestling her head against a hand propped up against the table. "Oh?" she lilts, smiling.

Sayaka mutters something under her breath.

Madoka leans in. "What?" she asks, a teasing smile on her face. "I didn't hear that."

"IwanttoinviteKyousuke," Sayaka blurts, face reddening more.

"Ah, I see," Mami says, smiling. "I think that should be fine, don't you, Sabrina?"

Out of the corner of your eye, you can see Homura set her fork down, sighing quietly.

You shrug. "Eh... aren't his legs also, you know?" you ask.

"We can get him a wheelchair," Sayaka says, seeming to warm to the idea now that it's out in the open.

"Maybe," you say. "I'm thinking of that big park overlooking the city, though."

"Oh, are we going there?" Madoka asks, sounding delighted. "It's beautiful!"

"Well, that's what I was thinking," you say, shrugging.

"Hmmm... there's a path there, I think?" Sayaka says.

"There is," Madoka agrees. "It should be fine."

You shrug again, smiling and picking up your fork again.
 
I wonder how many soldiers are going to be facing Court Martial. Yakuza are expendable. And I wonder if we'll find experemental tech while shopping?
 
Have we established how Homura intends to leave? What's the risk of Mami noticing we're gone?

It wasn't too long ago we were concluding it would be a bad idea to treat abandoning her as no big deal just because she doesn't realise.

Last time Homura time-stopped-went check on Madoka, we noticed because her position had slightly changed.

If she intends to go and get back without Mami noticing, that sounds very difficult. Maybe she intends to simply let her know we were gone afterwards.

"Alright!" Mami says brightly, getting up. "We should clear up, now."

"Yeah," you say, pushin-

-g yourself up.
 
[] Reject the offer.
- [] "Even if it is only an instant to her, Mami is not in a place we can leave her."

Something like this?


Sorry "shopping" time. :(

This is literally the third time Homura asks us if we want to do this. She's really doesn't comprehend that we want to go with her. Backing off like it was all a joke would be like throwing all our progress with Homura down the drain.
 
[X] Attempt to contain your excitement.
-[X] Fail.
-[X] "Yes."

However, if we encounter any more weird whispers that aren't coming from either of us, we turn back right away, OK?

Well, with that attitude...

How are we ever gonna know what the whispers mean if we don't listen to them? If we don't seek them? Do you want us to always turn around and flee whenever we find something which looks like it could destroy our mind? How gutless.

I say embrace the whispers! Heed them! Listen to them and whisper back! Open the gates of communication for only that way will we reach enlightment! Enlightment or death! Or worse! But maybe enlightment!
