Puella Magi Adfligo Systema

Yeah, no, flying in upside down like that is lol randumb. We're going for sneaky intellectual humor or comedic duo, not random. Better to just suggest ideas in the thread and let Sabrina/Firn pick the one that'd work best, which she'd be much better at.

Similarly, Sabrina can do seatbelts if she wants. We don't do them the rest of the time and we have time to accelerate and decelerate slowly. Making sure that the food won't spill is I guess worth putting some extra effort into, but the way Firn says it it's already been taken care of.

Would this be a good time for Grief background music, theme music, sound effects, visual effects etc?
Mostly it's not been appropriate, but if we're going full Sabrina with already friendly people...

Also, on the bling-providing, all gold shall be given in highly detailed and adorable Yuma figurines!
Or we could try making something that sells/pawns for greater than gold fencing prices by adding some processed scrap.
Maybe a gold pocket watch? That should be well within our capabilities.
We can, at least, do stupidly precise and intricate engraving.

On a random music-related note... Can we alter our Grief's Witch-ness rapidly and clearly enough to make it 'sound' like music? Or whatever sense-equivalent effect. Kyouko likens it to smell here....
Witch Witch Witch Witch Wiiiitch
WITCH WITCH

Wait! The most important question!
Should we deploy a chibi-brina? Should we wait until we're back to pair it with a chibi-mami?
Multiple chibi-brinas?
Should we hide ourself and only let them interact with the chibi so they think it's our natural form?
 
Our chibis are witchy, and the Pleiades aren't used to the feel of our grief like Mami is. I don't think it would make a good first impression. Besides, what's the use a chibi without a Mami for it to cuddle? :D
 
We could make non-Witchy Chibis now, but it wouldn't be the same.

They'd look fine, and we'd have sight, but that's about it. We wouldn't feel the hugs with out Chibi.

And that's terrible. :p
 
>come into the rendezvous at high altitude so they can't see us
>diffuse grief conveyance, remain flying with grief TK via thin layer under clothing
>descend in front of them in Jojo pose
>once we reach their level, coalesce the grief platform out of thin air beneath our feet
>proceed with rest of plan

Sound good?
 
Yup, mirroring Michiru is a spectacularly good plan every way I look at it. She's close enough that it's not even really acting, just letting ourselves out a bit more than usual and fitting in. And I'm sure she'd love having someone else to bounce off of just like Sabrina would. I just think that the execution needs to be left up to Sabrina so she can handle the details in realtime.

If circumstances allow, I'd like to make the Clear Seed here in Asunaro so we can leave it with the half of the team that's staying behind. We can keep the gems of the ones that are coming with us clean, but the ones that are staying in Asunaro might need it.

Okay, yeah, I like this idea. Hadn't really considered the girls staying behind.

*sigh* Okay No Fun Guy, your concerns are noted. I don't want to be married to any particular idea either, and offering a Clear Seed is more important..

That's a pretty solid idea.

Less "no fun guy" and more "we can do better than that". The "Warp zero-point-zero-one" joke I think is a good example of what we should be looking for - clearly silly, but indicates a particular kind of silliness, and if taken at face value raises the question of why we're measuring our speed in warp factors...

All of this, basically; even if things aren't fucked at the moment, we can't be sure that the city is safe, especially when (one of) the primary power bloc(s) is at half-strength. While timeline flux may have changed things, it's implied that Asunaro is overpopulated with magical girls prior to the Pleiades pogroms.

Also, it's a really neat party trick, especially since we've got dramatic coat billowing tech and the chance to do it at the top of a tower.

@Firnagzen : You rated my post about the last name as informative, but didn't go back to change that part of the update...?

A case of not having done it yet, plus not being certain if it would be better to correct going forward or just leaving it. I tend to do an editing pass when the next update is posted, anyway.

John Williams is mandatory, I think.

Option 1.
Option 2. (possibly from 45s)

...

Alternatively (or maybe that is saying to much of our opinion of Asunaro?)

Alternatively alternatively, this.
 
@Firnagzen

A concern is brought up, that the in-flight lines might look like we're hogging the conversation, I think we don't want that. Would it be helpful to explicit in vote to let the Pleiades talk, or has Sabrina's SOCIAL grown enough at this point?

-[X] Ask if Umika's 『 S T A N D 』 is 『 Heaven's Door 』.

"Alright," you say. "I suppose you don't want the hunting, but the offer remains. I'd have a condition for you, mind - I want all the Familiars exterminated, if you hunt in Mitakihara. And as I said, I'd have to confirm it."

"You can say her name," Kyouko snaps.

"Yes, I'd have to confirm it with Mami," you say. "And with Homura, probably.
