See...this is kind of what I was saying. Only kind of, because I was thinking of the /next/ step, but I really don't think we /can/ solve her issues by pestering her.
 
[:V] Knock her out
-[:V] Tie her up on a chair in Warehouse-kun
--[:V] Wait for her to wake up
---[:V] Start with: "I think we started off on the wrong foot. How about I apologize first, yes? And then we could start over!" Smiles. Leans in. Whispers: "I'm not asking. Twice."

I honestly think that would work /better/ then what we tried.

Note better does not mean well.
 
I think all we managed so far is that we will be Sasa's first target if she makes her canon wish :V

But honestly approaching someone like her, when she's already down is always difficult. I mean, I also wouldn't be particualry enthused to converse with a random stranger, that follows me even after I've told the to fuck off, if I was currently upset. I doubt we'll get far by just talking to her in her current state of mind. But I also don't know if just telling her magic is real and she might be targeted by an alien that will try to turn her into becoming a magical zombie will go over well.
 
We could try to recruit her, so that by the time kyubs shows up she just is so used to saying fuck you she doesn't even think about it!

(Actually..other then it being deceptive as fuck, I think that is a good plan.)
 
[X]"Nope. You're coming with me for ice cream...either that, or I'm going to get it and bring it back. So...do you want fresh ice cream in a nice place, or half melted ice cream here?"
[X]Follow through on that.
[X]Let her know we'll see her around.
[X]Go see Kyouko.

Girl reminds me of myself when I was young, sadly. Assuming I'm reading her right, she really wants to take the invitation and be friends, but she's unable to believe this isn't either a trick or a trap...or something. She is simply too paranoid to believe someone wants to be her friend.

If we want to overcome that, we have to refuse to take "no" for an answer...and remember that she'll take everything the worst way she can.
 
Right. Lemme try this...

[X] Catch up to her. "Uh, can I at least do something to make it up to you?"
-[X] If she says yes, ask what it is. If it's something reasonable, do it. If it's something unquestionably unreasonable, just leave. Politely. Or cooly. Or better, both.
-[X] If she says no, then proceed to withdraw cooly.
--[X] Either way, don't forget to say something like... "See you later." In a way that is not creepy. Or stalkery. Or murdery. Is that even a word? Whatever. Murdery sounds like a weirldy adorifying sound. Murderyderyderyderyderiiii~
---[X] Send a message to Kyouko, "Murder—I mean, sure. Uh, hey, can I introduce you to someone? Later, of course. She's a friend of mine; a new Meguca. If you don't mind... I've been planning to a Witch-Hunt with her as well. For, you know, get her used with this entire thing."
----[X] Head for the usual lunchspot. To see kyoko, that is.

I'm too sleepy to react to this meaningfully. Given this response, I feel like maybe some sort of compromise between the AgentWhiskers vote and the Godwinson vote probably should have happened. I'm not sure if compromise between my vote and Godwinson's would have been possible, because I feel like we were probably going off on completely different tacks.

Eh, I dunno.
 
[:V] Set her on fire. Fire fixes everything.
-[:V] The screams will be therapeutic.

This is clearly a joke but we might need to be this forward to get her to listen. We don't like her, but we do want to save her. Asking us to be nice to her might be asking too much. Think of Ono...

Oh, now you guys want to go for the "I know you/Magic plan.":p

Seriously though, was this outcome really that unexpected to you guys. This being a likely outcome is why I had tentatively proposed telling her about magic.

Please don't. Annoyance at Sasa will bleed into Sabrina's character. We really don't need that right now.

And can you guys seriously please listen to this and stop? Dealing with Sabrina increasingly losing her patience and being annoyed on top of Yuuki being Yuuki would be incredibly aggravating.

That offer from Kyoko was pretty aggravating to hear, though. This would be a golden opportunity to further bond with her, but we can't go for it because we're dealing with this now.

I'd rather not give up building a relationship that's actually progressing over bashing our head against a particularly irritating and bitchy wall.

"Fuck off Kyoko, I'm busy trying to befriend this jerk with no redeeming qualities for Reasons"

I'm concerned that would only further anger her.

I agree. We questers are used to instant consequences, but this is a more subtle thing. I suspect she is actually listening, but cannot go through. So we insist (don't ask, don't apologize, insist) until she (begrudgingly) follows through.

If we have to be the anoying idiot who makes her have nice ice cream, the better.

Then we hammer in the warning about magic, and we give her our phone or something.

Sabrina-Chan approves of this plan.

So basically harassing her into giving in? I don't think that's such a good idea.

Do we absolutely need to deal with Yuuki right now, guys? Kyoko's almost being conciliatory here. That's really not something we should just ignore.

Not harassing, insisting. If she attempts physical attacks to stop us, we stop.

Give it 30 minutes. We are already involved, this is not longer just about sasa's life, ours is at play here. If everything else fails, we give her an ultimatum, with grief illusions and all.

[Q] Come on, have some ice cream with me, just one, it'll be just five minutes, come on, please...
-[Q] Please, please, please, please, please please please plesae please...
--[Q] Did I convince you yet?

Wait, she turned her back on us!

[Q] Tackle hug from behind! She'll never see it coming!

OK, now...

[ ] Cut Sasa off. Block her path whenever she tries to leave.
-[ ] Ask her for her name. We won't stop bothering her until she tells us her name.
-[ ] Then ask her if we can meet again for that ice cream, and give her our number. She can call us any time she's skipping school.
[ ] Once you're done with Sasa, tell Koko you're on your way, and go.

There's this to consider:
Yuuki's face twists into a confused, suspicious mask. "Why?" She almost manages to hide the sound of her stomach growling.
Her mouth says 'no', her stomach says 'yes'.

She'll probably regret not accepting our offer later.
 
Perhaps we should just give an apology and a friendly goodbye and head for Kyoko?

Basically we take no for an answer now so next time we won't be so... suspicious.

Not really. We're an annoyance right now but not to the point Sasa has reason to specifically target us with her wish.

If we leave now, we probably have guaranteed a Sasa contract but it would still be her canonical wish.

If we keep pushing however...
