Just a reminder, though it doesn't need to be brought up now, we do have one or two potential leads on how to find out more about feathers. The issue with Sayaka should to be brought up before we go and... I don't know. The issue with convincing Homura to ease up the house arrest still seems to be disputed. What else are we talking about here beyond the apology?

Another thing that we should discuss is the visions that Oriko just told us about:
Firnagzen said:
Finally, Oriko's nostrils flare minutely, and she begins speaking, low and rapid.

"Shizuki Hitomi will not become a magical girl." She exhales sharply. "There is a travelling magical girl, her name is... Bennouna Nadia." Oriko stumbles over the unfamiliar name, but presses on gamely. "If you talk to her and demonstrate your powers she will carry the news to other countries."

"Oriko," you say, gently interrupting the tumbling flow of words. "I appreciate it, I do. But-"

"Let me finish, I might not have a chance to later," Oriko hisses between gritted teeth. "The... magical girl specialising in soul magic will be here in a week. It doesn't matter what you tell Miss Bennouna." Her lips compress together for a moment. "Do not... do not ask her about her sister."

She pauses, frown deepening over her closed eyes. "They... the other magical girls, a fair number of them, start trickling in unless you ask Miss Bennouna not to spread the word," she says, mouth twisting into a grimace as she waves a hand. "Things get messy. More magical girls means... more friction. I- there are so many, I can't see a clear way through."

Oriko exhales slowly. "Those are the, the big things," she says. "That I can see."

These visions were important to Oriko, important enough that she felt the need to mention them before we started talking about the loss of her powers and her life. If they were that important to Oriko, then I think that we should discuss them in a little more depth before we leave.

As matters stand now, I don't think she'll survive no matter where she is. If she's away from a practical cause, she simply expires. Perhaps her soul twists into itself to the point where the gem simply shatters on its own.

Note that Oriko's visions also have known limitations based on physical distance (i.e. Asunaro was hard to see). If she moves far enough away, then it could be impossible for her previous visions to have predicted what would happen, so this is a course of action that could potentially save her life. However, remember that Oriko wants to stay in Mitakihara so that she can fulfill her purpose of saving the world. That's a noble goal and I want to encourage it, so I would only try to get her to leave the city as a last resort.

Talking about her visions now sends the wrong message and derails the talk about HER.

1. Planning is something productive that Oriko can do right now with us to prevent the horrible visions of her death from coming to pass.
2. Coming up with ways to avert the visions should help reassure her that what she has seen is not inevitable.
3. Oriko is DONE talking about her problems right now - we shouldn't leave, but we should take a break from beating a dead horse. Hopefully we can come back to the discussion in the future from a new and helpful direction, but for now that topic of conversation is closed.

Yeah no. You deal with this, Social Sayaka, I'll put my faith in you.

I'd probably mess things up more.

Talking about food makes me think the days' wait until that picnic are taking a little long.

Think about how long it'll take to get to the second picnic, the one to which we can try inviting Koko and Yuma.
