Puella Magi Adfligo Systema

Reader mode
Does anyone else have this absolute ominous feeling that walking into that meeting is going to be the magical girl equivalent of the Archduke's driver taking a wrong turn and going down the wrong road?

Tokyo is really, really unstable. "Damned foolish thing in the Balkans" unstable.
 
Could always add 'be ready to intercept a bullet in the middle of the performance'
 
Presentation…

Where exactly will we be doing this? Maybe we can create a full scale lavish board room/meeting table out of Grief, complete with a blank name plates that change as each of the Magical Girl groups introduce themselves?

Have a couple chibis in the background serving drinks and we could definitely play up the UN angle.

Alternatively, we could play it how the ASEAN does when they visit Japan and have some entertainment in the background before we start. We've already got the makings for a full orchestra anyway, so maybe a chibi ballet with lights and ribbons?

As for my last thoughts, any such PRESENTATION should probably have some kind of starry feel to it to represent the Constellation as a whole.

We shouldn´t overdo it either.

People are going to be to hair trigger for absurdity to work in our favour, so there should be nothing in there that could potentially unsettle traumatized teenage child soldiers.

Which basically amounts to everything, I suppose.

"hello everyone, i am sabrina, now if you could all kindly walk into my artificial witch barrier-"

*gets stabbed*

What if:

Simple, to the point: "Hello, everyone. I'm Sabrina Vee and I'm here to clean grief seeds"

PRESENTATION: " 'sup, fuckers."
 
Hmmm.

Some more ideas, most of them either meme'd enough for Sabrina to try or just performative in general.

We've already kind of made our own ship/flying platform before. Perhaps we could do an entrance involving our vehicle? Switch it to a Grief Limo, or a Spaceship perhaps?
Maybe even have a theme play as each of us exit.

Another thing we could do is create a large flag behind us with the name and symbol for our group, though we'd need to decide the design beforehand with the rest. Possibly use it as a temporary marker for the building we'll be using later on.

No grief shenanigans, or no witchy grief shenanigans? Cause our normal grief multitasking is still a great show, maybe a recreation of Iowa, or some other pseudo-telekinetic feat of similar dexterity.

None. Because it serves no constructive purpose to show that card, and it would project an imbalance: for X magic power Constellation allows you to use, Constellation gains X grief to make use of itself. The last thing we need are conspiracy theories on what the fuck we're doing with all of the grief we so 'generously' relieved these groups of, etc.

Wait, so you're suggesting to let our friends do all of the 'presentation', barring a potential simultaneous telepathic debate?

... I mean it makes thematic sense, given that Constalation should stand together, I'll give you that.

Still, they will probably eventually think about the fact that their waste is our strength, and given how much Grief we get from a single Grief seed, any cleansing activity we do should be negligible. I think we can easily demonstrate that when we demonstrate creating a Clear Seed.
 
We have more than 4 magical girls with us, who says we absolutely need to use grief to do anything?

Besides, that'll come later during our demonstration.

Oh, certainly. I didn't classify cleansing and taking grief as 'shenanigans.' That's just the base level assumed ability we even purport to have.

But yeah, the idea would be, as an entrance, to casually show off the casual expediture of multiple full Soul-Gems-worth of magic PER GIRL for frivolous and harmless stuff. The sillier the better. Constellation isn't just a magical girl group; it is the fun, happy, peaceful, exuberant magical girl group all the other dreamed to be part of when they first made their wishes. It is a group of plenty with fully projected intentions to share that plenty - ergo, there is nothing to be jealous of because they are ready, willing, and able to welcome more into their fold.

All that they ask is to help preserve their way of life, which makes things better for everyone that associates with them.

if you'd like, I propose this vote:

[X] Niko, you mentioned a hypothesis you were forming? Is there anything we can ask or do that will help you sort that out faster?
[x] How do you want to present yourself to the Council?
- [X] Ask the politiburo Your friends/political advisors if entering with a flashy entrance involving everyone would be an at least ok idea.
-- [x] If yes: Shock and awe PRESENTATION!
-- [X] If no: Simple, to the point opening about why you're here.
 
I think flashy is fine. Seriously who wants stuffy politics to dominate the next 5+ updates? Also Firn already said he wouldn't go too overboard with it.

Oh like I said, I'd love to do flashy. I'm just proposing the vote for the rest of us who aren't entirely on board with it. Asking the others for their opinion might give us an idea of how flashy we should try and be.
