What about the scyscrapers? I mean, how do we do this? I don't think we can get an exact time or location for WP showing up.

...Homura knows exactly when and where and if we can interfere with Walpurgis right from the opening act... (It uses some kind of TK to yank them? Barrier bullshit?)

More information is always useful.
 
[x] Well, there are two problems that a gun would solve for me, anti-magic and the range limit.
-[x] I probably can't hide a rifle, but I might not need a long gun for the range limit. I just need to make a long tube with Grief and a hammer, right? So I'd just need ammo.
-[x] But a pistol or revolver would help me with fighting someone with anti-magic, and those are pretty concealable.

As a note, saying we want a holdout weapon for anti-magic might help socially with Homura. The only person we know who has anti-magic is bestbuddy, and Homura would be comforted to know that we aren't just trusting her blindly but are taking steps to protect ourself from her.

I should rewatch. Only thing I remember is Homura telling Kyouko that she knows where WP will appear due to 'statistics', which I took to be a funny, but straight answer. So I guessed WP doesn't always appear at the same place or time, but there's a combination of those that occurs most often.

Well, yeah, but Homura wasn't exactly going to reveal the en truthand she was facing in exactly the right direction at exactly the right time for the opening act.

It still counts as statistics if it's the same result every time. Either way, something to ask about.

OK.

I'm kind of worried about the feather.
She takes the feather and raises it to her eye level, the slightest tremor betraying her discomfort. After a moment of intense scrutiny, she speaks again, voice soft. "It... seems normal to me." She holds the feather out to Homura with a small, hopeful smile.

The time traveller's eyes flick down to the feather for a moment, before returning to regarding you in stony silence. She shakes her head, and Mami's smile fades, the hand holding the feather dropping back to her side.

We never took it back.

Who knows what insidious ideas it could be whispering into Mami's fragile subconcious mind?
 
Hm. We could attempt a grief gun, honestly. It's not quite so simple as a tube with a hammer- not if you want to hit anything- but I'm pretty sure our grief control is fine enough to make rifling for the barrel.

You know, one experiment we never attempted was sensing things with our grief. Would allow us to aim and fire remotely, if we couldn't already.

Does making tea with our grief without looking what we're doing count as an experiment? :p
 
Yes, we should accept our gift from Mom. Its not often that she gives us presents.

I do like the idea though of disassembling it and using grief tendrils to rapidly assemble it when we need it.
 
It would be smarter to instead take a bunch of ammunition. We can hide them on ourselves easily and simply form a rifle out of grief when we need to use them.
 
I think we should definitely ask for a pistol or revolver as a hold out weapon in case of anti-magic. It will assure Homura we aren't blindly trusting bestbuddy aka Kirika.
 
Incomplete vote in progress. I think now's a good time to explain Sasa.

[] I could disassemble it. Store it in my grief... Though, now that I think about it, I could probably just make my own gun. Bullets are still a problem though. At least for now.
[] Hey Homura. Do you know a girl named Sasa Yuuki?
-[] Explain Sasa Yuuki to Homura if she doesn't.
--[] Her powers fit the odd witch behavior. Though if she's behind it, you still have no idea why she'd go after Sayaka.
--[] Tomorrow, you're going to see if you can locate her. If she became a magical girl... well, you'll cross that bridge when you get to it.
 
Pretty sure Sasa Yuuki can't teleport people from their house to the industrial district, and make people go to bed way too early.

Sasa could influence the parents to take a nap. Also Sayaka didn't teleport. Oriko's visions went haywire at least 40 minutes before she contacted Sabrina.

Well, I just read up on Sasa Yuuki, she sounds like a dangerous opponent for us to deal with, maybe she is being used by feathers as a tool to hinder us? Or she could be doing that on her own.

Didn't we establish waaaaaay back that Sasa just has a crappy little field around her that makes people friendly towards her? And that it can be resisted if you know she's doing it?
 
Actually, Mura raises a good point about bringing up Yuuki. I'm not sure we want to do that this vote, though since it feels jarring and we have other things to cover as well.

Honestly, our best defense against Yuuki is that she's a complete idiot- as in making Sabrina's kind of decision making look good by comparison- and her brand of mind control is fairly lackluster- and hopefully is going to be even less effective on us. Those factors hopefully make her slightly less OH GOD PANIC than a mind controller that can make witch puppets and rewrite memories would normally be.

Seriously. She thought insulting Oriko in front of Kirika was a good idea, and managed to mess up an assassination attempt on the two of them while they had to protect an uncontracted Yuma while she had an entire gaggle of puppet witches to thrown at them. That is a very, very special level of incompetence.

That was what she decided to do in one specific situation...and managed to rewrite Oriko's mind to think of her as a friendly school student who was in danger. And she could puppet witches and use them as Pokemon. She's a threat to Sabrina due to mind control but going by canon she's slightly less dangerous than she should be.

Sasa is kind of really stupid and as long as she doesn't catch you by surprise, her "mind control" doesn't even work that well.
She may have pet witches, but that isn't really a problem for us.

Unless she gets a major power-up or grows a brain she isn't much of a threat.
