We'd want to visit Sasa Yuuki in timestop both so that we don't get Kyuubey interested in her if she's not contracted and so that neither of us is in danger of her controlling influence if she is.

Is there any reason we couldn't just go right now?
 
Can I just say that I love Sabrina's personality?
The way she goes off on the most random tangents is so damn amusing.

Not sure if Homu's up for the trip right this second. Also not quite sure where she lives.

Honestly I'd rather just do a sweep of Shirome and/or nearby schools tomorrow. Yuuki, isn't an super urgent priority. We also might locate some new meguca on the way.

Homura just got done admitting that she feels lost and helpless because doesn't know how to deal with "Feathers". To one extent or another, that feeling is going to remain at least until we find out more about "Feathers", but finding out whether Sasa Yuuki is behind the witch attack on Sayaka is something that Sabrina and Homura can do now, and I think that productivity would make both of us feel better about the situation. At any rate, she did express an interest in going, so asking if she wants to go now would not be inappropriate.

Also not quite sure where she lives.
It's possible that Homura knows. And even if she doesn't, we have a 200 m sensing range even without any grief augmentation. And a longer range when we do use grief augmentation. Doing a sweep of the area around Shirome shouldn't take too long.

Apologies for the preemptive vote, but consider this an early vote in case of lack of access.

Better safe than sorry, and Homura probably wouldn't mind too much since this is proactive measures and more than a little related to Madoka's safety.
 
I propose that we just stick our soul gem in a grief sphere. We don't need to take it out to clean it, inert grief really likes to stay in it's shape so it won't stop being in the sphere while we sleep, and just regular grief slabs can stand up to Ramiel's Lazorbeamz, so it'd be completely safe. We'd become incredibly hard to assassinate by, say, a bullet, or teleganking, or acid, or pretty much anything below Feather's pay grade. There is pretty much no good reason that I can think of for not doing it right now that would outweigh all of the obvious benefits, and even if somebody does come up with one, we should still do it in any time we even approach a combat situation.

We should also try to figure out how to think without having a brain, sometime soon. It's not like we use that thing anyways...

Megucas don't use their brains to think regardless. That's literally the whole point of Soul Gems.
 
Homura raises her eyebrows at you, holding the pistol by its barrel and presenting it to you. It's a... distinctive weapon, from the exposed trigger group transiting into what you know is a five round magazine, to the top-exposed bolt action slide, gliding onwards to a matte, blackened barrel. A shortened barrel.

You stare at the equally sawn down birch stock of the sawn down Mosin-Nagant rifle. A bolt action rifle converted to a pistol that fires 7.62mm rounds.

"It's an obrez," Homura notes quietly. She pronounces it correctly, too. She begins to reach into her shield again. "Do you want something smalle-"

o_O:D
Homura, you're the best. I am wondering what kind of magical girl was carrying that around, though.

So um... money.

I know I want to take some of it but what the heck do we do with the rest of it?

Just give the rest to Homura. She does have hammerspace, and it could be useful in the future.
 
[X] "Of course, Homura."
-[X] Does she know where to find her?
[X] Continue on.
[X] Ask Homura if she minds you swiping some money. Do so if she approves. She should keep the rest. It might be useful in the future.

So, does anyone have any ideas for conversation topics?

Donate it to magical girls in need?

I wonder if Kyouko would actually consider it charity if we told her we swiped it all from the Yakuza and don't want heaps of solid cash laying around our apartment? ((Not seriously suggesting this, btw))

We might even earn brownie points with her if we told her the whole story. Stealing all of the Yakuza's guns and ammo? Bold, but practical and understandably usable for an MG. Stealing all of their cash and burning their drug stockpile while you're at it? Kind of hilarious.
 
She nods, tilting her head towards the door and starting out. You glance back at the rifle you'd handled, still sitting on its rack. It has your fingerprints now, doesn't it? At a thought, Grief swings in, wickedly sharp blades forming and hammering into it with whickering chimes of steel as you slice it into so much metallic confetti.

I may only be relentlessly shadow running here, but - How large are these pieces of confetti, again? Thumb-sized maybe? If they're small enough no fingerprints would fit on them, then it's fine, I guess.

Maybe I should have been more active when the vote was being written, but I might have preferred if the rifle were burned with the rest of the lockboxes. Ah, well.

Also:
Burn that bridge when I get to it, as it wer-
This is a thing I say. In real life. And I didn't even vote for it to happen.


[Edit]
[] "Of course, Homura."

Very incomplete vote. I'd say we need to write in more conversational topics, but I can't seem to think of any.

As useful as the money may turn out to be, we should check if the serial numbers on the bills are sequential. It might turn out to be trackable.

Hmm. If Homu knows where Sasa lives, then yeah it's probably best to check now and either write her off or deal with it. If not, I don't really want to turn this into timestop hunt MK II. We left Mami rather abruptly, and don't have any buffer room if for whatever reason time stop were to fail. I would much prefer to get through this run without anymore issues, so we can finally address Megane. And well, not give Mami anymore unnecessary trauma.

I don't feel Sasa is crucial enough that it needs to be resolved tonight.

If she's uncontracted, I'd honestly say we should drop in on her sometime and try and talk her out of...well, whatever gave her that mindset. If she's contracted but isn't clearly a threat, we let her be for the moment and keep an eye on her.

How do we determine how clearly a threat Sasa is?

Her powerset is based on subterfuge.

If she's contracted, we're going to have to interrogate her at the very least.

I'll add that. Hm. Conversation?

We could talk about Ugo's better half.
[] Tell her about our recent encounters with Kyoko. Any advice for how to get on her good side?

My vote now looks like this. Any suggestions? Reservations?

:wtf:

Bringing her in the loop on plan 'Invite Kyoko and Yuma to the picnic for MAXIMUM FOODINGS/SOCIAL' sounds good to me, actually. We're running the idea by Mami soonish, right?
