*Must....resist...I can still re...GLOMP*

Ah I guess Mami got hugged again?

I swear Chibi Mami is a memetic agent. e: Is this what being Sasa'd feels like?

Also, we really should find an opportunity to talk more with Mami about attack names, since she seems extremely passionate about them. I think she has one for every single attack, even if she doesn't get the chance to yell them out much.
I suspect that not all of the powers she has in the game are considered canon. If the tea that Mami summons could actually heal her allies, you'd think that she'd have used that when Oriko blew our leg off. :p


"Flawless Legs of Gold!"
o_O ...wtf, game designers?

To be fair, there's a difference between "heal some superficial wounds" and "regenerate limb loss."

And considering the magic system, it could be as simple as "Mami prepares some ordinary ass tea except she made it so it's super good. Megucas are able to auto-heal more cheaply because they're put in a good mood."
 
Well, for this one in particular, we could put kinetic-energy inviolable shell centered around or gem (or heck, just a grief shield - used them to block car engines moving at...greater than normal city speed limit? We were above the rooftops).
No-clipping means "ignores collisions, goes straight through stuff". The term comes from and old game.
 
Absorbing kinetic energy should still work, though. No clipping isn't very useful if it stops moving.
Actually, how about a Grief thing/enchant that absorbs kinetic energy... and transforms it into its own power source? It sounds kind of OP, but magic.

It would be cool to facetank a building from Walpurgisnacht.

Shame about the fight getting to the point buildings are thrown, though.

So if it turns out Mami's chibi clone can be autonomous, and/or we help her refine this power... can she eventually send tiny adorable backup to those in need, and how can we abuse this?


"I'm a helper!"
"What."
"Hug!"
"No. Stop that. Sabrina, tell it to let go of my le- stop taking pictures right this instant."
"I swear... this Chibi acts more like an..."

*Tugs at Chibi Mami*

"... like an extra friendly Sabrina than like Mami."


*But the chibi refused to let go*

"Well, it's just a harmless little thing, so it can't be helped-"

*Flick the Chibi Mami off Homura*

*Flinches*

"OWWW!"

"..."

"..."

"Mami..."

"D-does anyone want tea? I should prepare some t-"

*Holds up Chibi Mami*

"You can share senses with this thing!"

"I... W-well, I..."

*Sighs*

"Homura- I'm sorry-"

*Hugs Mami*

"..."

"Group hug!"

*Glomps*

*Walks in*

"Hey, sorry I'm late-"

*Turns around*

*Walks out*

This phrase took my brain immediately to "domestic dispute".
"What."

"... and I can deal with your 'saving meguca' thing, and I can deal with your microwaving tea, but you've gone TOO FAR!"

"W-what."

"I THINK I'M BEING VERY REASONABLE!"

"Sabrina... Sabrina is..."

"AND I SAY YOU TURNING INTO WALPURGISNACHT IS OVER THE LINE!"

"Mami wait- you can't-!"

"Homura stay out of this!"

"TIRO...


"HUE HUE HUE HA HA!"

"Too late for excuses!"

"HUE HUE?"

"FINALE!

*BOOOOM!*

"HUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE...!"

*Gapes*

"Come back here, we're not done!"

*Chases*


"..."

*Starts hyperventilating*

And then Sabrina-nacht needs to post bail on Mami when she Tiros a Public Park during the dispute.

The sad thing is, that would be a healthier situation...

"What can you do?" shrugs Sabrina, while they wait for Mami to be released.

Homura nods, or at least Sabrina likes to imagine she nodded there.

"Sabrina!"

"Mami!"

In an instant, both girls were spinning in place, holding tightly into each other.

"Let's go home," says Sabrina.

Mami nods. "I need a good, strong cup of tea after all of that, I think."

"Mmm..." hums Sabrina.

"You're not thinking of microwaves," says Mami with a sharp glance, "are you?"

"U-um..." the white haired girl stumbles.

Mami's stare turns glacial.

Homura shivers.

"No... no way, Mami!" denies Sabrina, shaking her head and her hands, for emphasis.

"Oh," smiles Mami, "that's good."

The sudden tension vanishes just as suddenly as it formed.

"Come on, Mami," chides Sabrina, "I think you scared Homura there!"

Both girls stop and turn to look at the one silently trailing behind them.

"Sorry Homura-chan," apologizes Mami. "Are you OK?"

Homura stays absolutely still.

"I think she nodded," says Sabrina, "she's OK."

"Good," agrees Mami.

Together, the three girls make their way home.

Sabrina and Mami chat.

Homura doesn't say anything. Not that she doesn't say much after... 'Walpurgisnacht'.

But Sabrina's sure she's getting better.

"Prepare to snuggle!"

"Make it double!"

"To protect the world with consolation!"

"To unite all girls within our nation!"

"To extend our hugs to the stars above!"

"Sabrina!"

"Mami!"

"Team Meguca, blast off at the speed of light!"

"Surrender now, or prepare to fight!"


"Homuhomu, that's... are you sure that's right?"

"Sorry Homu, you suck at this."

"Thank god."

"I know it's hard, but I need to replace you."

"That's fine."

"There's no need to pretend! I know how much this is breaking you inside, but you must understand..."

"I understand."

"H-Homura, come give me a hug."

"... I'm very sad. Can I go?"

"Of course. I'm very sorry about kicking you out like this."

*Nods*



"Well Mami, I've got two possible replacements picked. Look:"

*GRIEF SCREEN*

Nagisa said:
"CHEESE, that's right!"

"And..."

Yuma said:
"NYAN! That's right!"

"Your verdict?"

"... Can we pick them both?"
 
So I looked at some stuff just to see what kind of experience Homura might actually have with paintball.

The plus side is, there is a fairly developed Japanese paintball community, with numerous arenas just in the Tokyo area. It's also fairly popular with the US airforce peeps stationed in Japan. So the opportunity is there.

Minus side is, it's hella expensive - more so than in North America. So Homura wouldn't have had many opportunities to look into it legally. So the question becomes, by the point in the loops where she was fine with illegally obtaining goodies, would she even still have an interest in non-lethal projectile weaponry?

I'm honestly not sure. Certainly it wouldn't have been her focus, but if she has mops and boiling water and rope, surely she's needed a non-lethal weapon at at least one point in at least one loop, right?

Paintball was just my first idea, but I'm open to anything that gives Sayaka some tactical positioning training - airsoft, even Nerf in a pinch, though I suspect puella reflexes are fast enough that that won't work. Rubber bullets, too, though that has the opposite problem. Help me out, guys? How can Homura contribute to Sayakas training without pulling out the live ammunition?

How do soldiers train without live ammunition?
