Some injuries we're extensive enough
I think this one was in the vote, too.

[x]Depends. Do you want to fight Witches? Either way, you're going to need to get Grief Seeds or cleanses to stay alive. Nothing's going to change that.
-[x]Look, you don't have to like me, but you'll need me to drop by and cleanse your gem or used seeds regularly if you don't want to learn how to fight. And if that's what you want, that's alright too.
--[x]If I leave you grief seeds, you can't just give them to Kyubey when you're done with them again. They're very precious to other magical girls, and it's a massive waste when I can just cleanse them.
-[x]Of course, if you just want to get rid of me and do things your way, the best way to do that is to let us teach you how to do that. How to fight, maybe how to use less magic or turn it off? You'll need to hunt Witches after that, barbaric or not, but you won't need to see as much of me.
--[x]You don't need to- and shouldn't- fight alone, either. You can ask some of the other local girls if they'd be willing to hunt together with you. Tell her about Masami and Hiroko. You can ask them if they'd be willing to work with her.
[x]What you can't do is be a lone magical girl who doesn't fight Witches. That'll kill you in a week. Days if you can't turn your magic off.
[x]It's up to you.
I'm thinking of alternative phrasings, brevity, and maybe mentioning a couple of things she should know.

[] That depends on you. Your body runs on magic now; more than food, water and rest, everything you do, even breathing, talking and walking, consumes magic. I'm certain that, besides me, the only source of magic for Magical Girls in this World, is Grief Seeds. (That's how Kyubey designed things)
-[] If you want to live on Grief Seeds, you'll need to get your own. Unless you've got a marketable skill, like 'healing any and every injury in minutes', that Magical Girls would pay their life and blood for, that means fighting Witches, which while usually might seem dumb, they also tend to have a lot more raw strenght and magical power than a Magical Girl, nevermind being able to control the enviroment they live in.
-[] *Sigh* I didn't wish to be liked. I wished partly so there could be an alternative to this. The Magical World is a cut-throat place where you can easily get killed or kicked out of your home city because there's not enough Witches and Grief Seeds to go around. The reason everybody in Sendai 'toed the line' was not because we won a fight, it was because I have an alternative, one where everybody can live together in peace. If you don't want to fight, that's fine with me. I wished so you would have that option.
[] So you have choices, but will always require a source of magic from now on, and for the rest of your life:
-[] Learn to fight to the point where you can risk your life every day and come out on top. We can help you with that, or we can see if we can find somebody else to help you: There's another couple of Magical Girls in this city. Either way, you shouldn't fight alone. That's suicide.
-[] If you've got a super special magical skill we don't know about, you could try selling that. Healers capable of restoring Magical Girls from a head and a few limbs without most of their organs, can get three or five Seeds for their trouble.
-[] Or you can use the fact that I wished so you don't need to do any of that, and can live your life mostly normally. I'd need to see you every day, and for you to nor give any Seeds to Kyubey. And yes, sometimes that means meeting at any hour of the night or day, because yes, I do tend to deal in life and death situations very often.

Well, I fail at brevity. But there's some things we can bring up?

Can we start laying the blame where it belongs?

I think we should mention there's MG who have another option.

Address this. Witches aren't just dumb monsters.

I frankly think Ono would be terrified at this.

A couple of updates ago, we were considering mentioning how we don't fight alone, but in a group, despite each MG on our side being fully capable of taking on Witches on their lonesome.
 
Uhhh, I think saying that would be a major,major can of worms since as far as Mami knows- and as far as anyone else knows except Homura- the incident we're referring hasn't and won't happen.

Don't forget, we've pretty much been with Mami since Day 1 so saying we saw a magical girl die would lead to awkward questions.
This is all very true.
 
If we're willing to risk another Feather, we could demonstrate how dangerous witches are with our grief holodeck.

We have seen Kyoko mulched by a witch and Masami cut in half. Take your pick.
Let's make pseudo-Witches and make Ono fight them.

... To train her skills, of course.


Sabrina: "This is Elsa Maria, mind the branches."

Ono: "Branches? Ohgodit'severywhere-!" *CRRRREAK* *TWACK* *THUD*

_

Sabrina: "OK, let's try something easier. Eassssier. Easier-er."

Ono: *Frowns*

Sabrina: "This is Hildegarde, easy enough I could run experiments while fighting her."

Ono: "Experi-?"

Lub-dub. Lub-dub. Lub-dub.

Ono: "Mgh..." *Covers mouth*

_

Ono: *Green faced*

Sabrina: "Hey, that went well! You won!"

Ono: *Opens mouth* "..." *Closes mouth* *Runs off to a random alleway*

*Everybody politely ignores the retching sounds*

_

Sabrina: "OK, next one shouldn't be too difficult. Hell, I'm pretty sure this one didn't ever kill anybody. I think."

*Grief congregates and molds itself into...*

Sabrina: "Rochelle! The Giant Spidah!"

Rochelle: *Starts tap dancing* *Sees Homura* *Freezes*

Ono: "Just a dumb beast."

*Rochelle leaps at Ono, grabs her and runs away*

*Sabrina looks at Mami and Homura*

Sabrina: "That's... unexpected, almost. It should be fine though," *follows* "it shouldn't be able to get farther than a 100 metres from me..."

Mami: "I don't see them."

Homura: *Shakes head*

Sabrina: "Well. This is a thing now." *Takes out notepad, starts taking notes* "What's weird is she didn't pick up Mami..."

Mami: "What?"

Sabrina: "Nothing."

Inadvertent lichbomb, the MGs with other options just rub in that her wish probably sucks, she's better off thinking Witches are monsters- if dangerous ones, and I really don't think further terrifying her does anything good.

Reworded a bit but I tend to disagree with the ideas...and think Kyubey is going to need to come up soon but not right this minute.

Before someone says Sabrina's an exception for the line in red, we nearly got Mumi'd once near the start.

Something: Sabrina's multitasking and other magical skills are stronger while transformed.

Would Ono's magic cost less in terms of corruption while she is transformed? She should be able to check, and if that works, she could stay transformed all the time, just a matter of transforming once, then changing clothes for normal ones?

Unless the reduction in cost is psychological.
 
Seems appropriate:
Swerving around the corner, you take in the scene. Oriko's body, collapsed in a bloody pile on the ground. She's been virtually decapitated, and her left arm is simply gone below the shoulder. You spy the silvery blue gleam of her Soul Gem, still intact, but rapidly swirling into abyssal darkness.
Mami stepped forward, smiling uneasily. "Well, I guess she... LOST HER HEAD!"

Sabrina and Homura looked at her, then at each other, then back at Mami. Mami seemed baffled.

"What? What's wrong with a good head joke?"

Worth noting that we don't actually have to interact with her in any way and can cleanse her from a block away if she wants.

Yes, but we want to interact with her, get her to be less of a bitch, and generally befriend her. Not quite sure grief streaming off into the distance would do much for her mood either.

The comment about our wish and trying to be an alternative is an excellent addition.
Hmm. Open to suggestions for wording but I'll try and add something about that in a bit.

We could make ourselves a giant Grief Seed costume, so she'll feel less bad about relying on us for help?

... And suddenly get attacked by a random Akiko...

Maybe at the end?

Days if you can't turn your magic off. I made my Wish in order to avoid that, so you wouldn't have to fight, but I'm not a walking Grief Seed.
It's up to you.

Speak for yourself.

Anyway, she doesn't want any of those things right now, and respecting people's wishes is important if you want to be friends with them.
Yes, but we're laying groundwork for later and "never going to see her again" is not something we want to go out of our way to encourage.

Not least because PMMM is not a setting where "out of sight, out of mind" is going to apply when the little idiot griefspirals herself over having no friends and/or social issues without someone to talk to about it.

Exactly! Everyone loves Kyuubey because he respects their wishes.
Yes, everybody thinks it's disrespectful to throw their mislead Wishes into their faces, but it's their fault for not asking enough questions.

Maybe she'll consider working with Masami and Hiroko, just to get Sabrina out of her face.

Mind, they might turn her down, they might now want a third wheel. Also, we didn't exactly give them the first impression of Ono.

Probably should mention to them that we were wrong about the axe as a magical weapon.
