...uh, guys? Kirika's acting weird. Not remembering Sayaka? I mean, she may not know the girl well, but I'm pretty sure she should know her name?

Maybe I'm just being paranoid, but...Kirika's Wish alters her mind to suit Oriko's needs.

Oriko is dying.

Is Kirika's mind going along for the ride? Will she just keel over if Oriko does? Amnesia? Coma? Reversion to original personality?

I don't want to lose Best Buddy.
 
@Firnagzen ... I'm going to be making PMMM buttons to sell at Convention if my kickstarter for the machine gets funded and would really like to make a personal not for sale button for Sabrina so that I could wear it proudly. Would this be okay with you?

first sample of button:

As proof, independent from Oriko's prescience, that, if we (and O+K) hadn't intervened, then the death toll would be quite large. After all, Sayaka isn't going to be inclined to believe Oriko's own testimony.
"They were fighting and going to keep fighting, with people already getting caught in the crossfire and dragged in." is good enough to make our case without resorting to that.
 
OK, it might be close to lunch now.

We should check.
It's 11:15AM.
Pretty sure none of the girls (other than Madoka and maybe Hitomi) needs kidneys anymore.

"Sabrina..." Mami says hesitantly, cradling her elbow in one hand cupping her chin with the other. "Have you tried..." She trails off, and shakes her head. "No, never mind."

"Hm, Mami?" you say encouragingly, smiling at her.

Mami shakes her head again, but she reluctantly continues, hesitance in her words. "Have you... tried making an actual Barrier?" She abruptly waves her hands frantically in a pacifying gesture. "It's just an idea!"

"I did, actually," you say. "It... well, it worked. I managed to make a Barrier."

"Oh," Mami says. "Oh."

"Um, Mami?" you ask, directing a quizzical expression at her.

She doesn't respond immediately, before she slowly shakes her head again, eyes refocusing on you. She assays a little smile. "No... it makes sense," she murmurs. "Magic can be strange, and... wonderful, and I've never heard of anything like your powers, so it stands to reason, right?" She steps forward, arms spreading in an unspoken request for a hug.

You oblige, hugging Mami tightly. She wraps her arms around you, burying her head against the crook of your neck and holding you tightly. "Will you show me?" she asks softly.

You force yourself to straighten and meet Homura's eyes, clear blue against faded, tired lilac. Splashes of colour in a drained world. "I don't think it's my powers or I, Homura. It... Remember I mentioned at lunch, that I made a Barrier? I made the same Barrier, and in the same way, earlier this morning, and I didn't encounter anything unexpected."

A flicker of a frown, chased by realisation washes across Mami's face, and she nods encouragingly at you.

You continue. "But... Homura, Mami, I... In any case, no more Barriers. Not until I find out what all these feathers are about."
We've already seen that Mami mysteriously blanked out on her memory just before the first feather incident, so we really can't ignore Kirika suddenly forgetting about Sayaka. We've mentioned Sayaka in front of her before (Puella Magi Adfligo Systema | Page 2042) so this is probably something we should be worrying about.
 
Yeaaaa....things related to that Sayaka incident seem to have fucked the time stream and people's recollections of her/it. We should PROOOOBABLY keep this in mind.

The fact that Sabrina commented on it with confusion without our voting for it means it's not a normal thing explained away with "Kirika's heard her name all of fucking once" or something.

otoh Kirika brain damage.

Worth asking her about in vote?
 
I swear, someone needs to go through and gather up all the information on just straight up weird things happening, so we can try and piece them together. People losing their memories, witches acting oddly, pictures from Rebellion appearing in our dreams, that sort of thing. Gather it up, organize it with actual information from the updates themselves rather then speculation and we might just get a hint as to what the heck is going on.

I mean, it's obviously Homura stealing Kirika's precious brainfluids. But we should probably prove it before we say that aloud.
 
I've got an idea.

Let's take Oriko's and Kirika's Soul Gems for safekeeping.

Rearrange the Mikuni mansion into something more... proper.

Liberally use Grief in order to take control of the mansion, in fact.

Make it spooky.

Call Sayaka in distress.

We've been captured by the same Magical Girls that burnt down her home!

She must save us!

Sayaka Miki enters the Mikuni house! She must fight her way through an army of Evil Monsters! Fight mind warping creatures made out of despair! Go through tight corridors filled with orbs that shoot LZRS! Stand ambush after ambush from annoying Dolls! Dodge through a variety of projectiles like arrows, bullets, flying squirrels! Confront her own dark self, Dark Sayaka, in the Concert hall! And finally reach...

The Dragon, Kirika Kure!

Once The Dragon is defeated, she must now confront her final foe...

Oriko Mikuni, the one behind everything that's wrong in her life!

...

:V

Would this solve anything? No. Would this make things worse? Yes! Would it be possible to convince Oriko to go throught with it? Surely!

We can also use the opportunity to stick a silly title on Oriko, like...

The Girl Under The Bucket, Oriko Mikuni!

Or...

SEER PANIC! Oriko Mikuni!

Or...

The Girl Who Peeks On You As She Pleases, Oriko Mikuni!

...

Damn it, why do actions have to have consequences.

You see, the brain damage is contagious.
