Hi, I need somebody to sign for delivery of one Wall Of Text?
[X] (Station) "Define okay."
-[X] "I get where the Chief's coming from, but the longer we take to deal with our enemies, the more time they have to find where we live and attack us in our sleep. I refuse to allow that. Not to mention that mind control is on the table now. Its a big mess, but we'll deal with it."
-[X] "Emphasis on *we*. I'm sure you have means of breaking mind control once you know who's under it, and I'd... really appreciate it if you could teach me and my friends how to recognize any signs of someone being under it. Because right now? The only thing I can think of to do is full-on paranoia of casting Patra whenever I meet up with them."
--[X] "I also don't appreciate the Chief simply blowing off my offer to assist with the investigation. At all. Especially because
*he's right* about my needing to focus on protecting my friends. Thing is? I
can't do that if I'm not fully read-in on the situation, if I
can't trust the people investigating to not fall under mind control -- or to be able to defend themselves if Father Hino simply sends more of his lackeys to kill them and break Saburo out to re-brainwash. Or worse, decides he's tired of 'failures' and goes full Comic Book Villain and does it himself. I doubt an cult leader is a pushover in a world with actual demons. The Chief knows where every girl I've revived, besides Arisu now, is... and each of them is powerless to defend themselves, now."
---[X] "In short? Part of me understands and appreciates his asking me to take a breath and think about things. I... have been neglecting some things, and I'm talking with Kohaku about that stuff. Touching grass, and all that. But part of me is rightfully pissed off, and feels I've been denied. CriticAl. NEeD to KNOW. InFORmation. I'm trying to stay professional about it, but I don't feel that's being reciprocated, and I don't feel the Chief understands the scope or depth of the danger here."
---[X] Mention, briefly, how you were warned about dimensional barriers dissolving and letting more demons through into this world in *another* dream, where you met the Samurai, and that we suspect this cult, the Disciples, is possibly related.
For intonation/reference on the weird text line:

[X] (Dream) Tell him about the Witch and how it was saying that you were there when mom died.
-[X] Briefly talk about how it tried psychological warfare, but found itself... misarmed for the fight. "Witches, it would seem, don't inherently know anything about demon magic..." (lower voice for this part) "which considering they're what Magical Girls turn into if they can't cleanse their Soul Gems and all, like with Arisu back there?" (return to normal volume) "It's probably typical, at least for those who didn't know about demons beforehand."
[X] (Mom) "Other than what I told you, it was mostly gossiping about people I've met, and she told me to tell dad I love him, and to tell grandma and grandpa that she left something under her bed. Also, she apparently knew Madoka's and Homura's parents."
-[X] "She also described 'Old Man Hino' as, and I quote, 'a nut job', and said I need to keep Kohaku far away from him. Which... yeah, she is
not going back, not after the life of
abuse"
Ya know, we could probably ask for a soul gem to try and bait a darkness spell for the free heal.
Only if it's like that Tal'shiar data stick holding alleged plans from the Dominion to attack the Romulan Star Empire. i.e., "It's a FAAAAAAAAAAKE!".
Except Yumi doesn't know it would work like that.
Yumi knows that Light magic barely affects Magical Girls; basic Genre Savvy about Elemental Affinities might be enough to give Yumi a gut feeling of "...let's not try that, shall we? Not on anybody we care about, at least."
Edited a couple times for grammar and an accidental repetition. I had my battery die partway through writing all that, and I thought something had been lost which hadn't.
