It could have been worse. Imagine that with Kyosuke :V

Also, we seem to have reached 10,000 posts in this quest! :lol Sadly I don't have any special omakes ready for this one, but thank you to everyone who has taken the time to participate in this pain train! Next stop, the one year anniversary next month!
 
They should listen to Tamiko more.

Suits ARE criminally good looking. It'll up our social score to new heights!

[X] Talk with Evelyn.
-[X] Our Uncle advised us to talk to our classmates more. We kind of need help in that department. Awkward as it is, can she help us go make some new friends?

Evelyn's in the same class as us, I think. Also, I wonder if we're going to meet a significant male character our age or if we're going to keep the Meguca Pain Train Friendship Circle going.

@Hannz

Hmm. Ambivalent about this approach. Perhaps you could give us your reasoning for this vote? I don't recall Tamiko needing help talking to people before. She would also probably know atleast a little bit about her class mates, even if she doesn't normally speak to them.
 
"Ichiro-kun was a perfectly boring and normal boy in high middle school. But his life took a sudden, unexpected twist when a cute girl clad in armor fell from the sky right before him. Now, after learning more about her, Ichiro must help Tamiko and her magical girl friends get used to normal school life, all the while avoiding the horrifying creatures called witches that lurk in the dark corners of Mitakihara. Can our hero make it?

I'm not even sorry for this travesty :V.
??? This is reference to something, right?

Never read a PMMM SI story, unless PMAS counts. There was that reverse-SI one shot involving Mami that was fairly decent, although I can't remember what it was called.

You've voted for me already, but I guess I should still explain myself more.

Evelyn probably feels pretty useless, all things considered. Yes, we've reassured her that she isn't but without action on her part, that feeling will always be there just in smaller doses. By giving her something to do for us, we'll hopefully rid her of that feeling bit by bit.
 
Thank the Good Gods (Both Real and Fictional) That I never read a PMMM SI. I stumbled upon one, I read the Synopsis and my eyes started Melting.

As you sit down behind your desk, your gaze wanders across the people in the classroom almost by itself. You can't help your thoughts returning back to the conversation you had with your uncle last night. You agreed to socialize more with your classmates, it's not something you can really put off now.

But as you look at the dozen or so people loitering around the room, your mind refuses to even give you their names, their faces are at the same time familiar yet so distant to you. You have studied in the same room, under the same teacher as they have. Two and a half years together...
They hate you…
But they don't mean anything to you beyond that. They don't evoke any feelings in you aside from-…
They hurt you…
Something unpleasant wells in your stomach and a cold shiver travels down your spine. You quickly avert your gaze and bite your lips. Even if you don't like acknowledging it, you can't help but to be almost terrified of them all now that your thoughts have turned to them.
Let them be…
However, you promised your uncle you would try. You made your wish so you wouldn't have to go through this anymore. But it's not easy to gather the courage to go and talk with them all of sudden, not by yourself at least.
Don't hurt yourself over them...
"E-Evelyn?" you ask out loud, trying your best to contain your anxiety and sound perfectly calm.

"Huh, yeah?" Evelyn asks back and turns to look at you, "What is it? You sound so nervous all of sudden… You alright?"

You nod hastily at the girl. "Y-yes, I'm fine. Don't worry," you say and give the classroom a quick look before continuing, "It's just that… well, my uncle advised me to talk more with my classmates. And, uh… I-I kind of need some help here. I know this sounds awkward, but can you help me and go make some new friends?"

For a moment Evelyn stares at you like you had grown a second head. Soon that makes way for concern as she leans closer to you and starts talking in a low voice, "Okay, are you really feeling alright, Tamiko? You're acting really weird here, you know."

"S-sorry,"
you interject hastily, "It's just that I'm not… well, I haven't really talked much with my classmates before, and I don't know if I can do that without bungling it up. So I was thinking if you could help me out here?"

"Uh, sure? If you have any problems here, I'm only happy to help you out,"
Evelyn says, "But please, don't take it the wrong way when I say that this is a very weird thing to ask out of the blue."

"It's okay, I understand,"
you reassure the girl, "And thank you for this, you're golden, Evelyn!"

"Thanks! Now, uh… Let's see who we have here,"
Evelyn answers you back and turns to look through the classroom, "Well, Sayuri, Ran and Katsumi are okay, I guess? We don't really share interests, but they're not bad people. Then there's the boy group in the front, but they're all hormone-ridden idiots. Hana is pretty quiet, but I don't think she'd mind it if we went to her?"

None of the names say anything to you…

"Well, if it's about getting new friends, I could also try introducing you to the other transfer students later?" Evelyn continues, before starting to frown, "...You know, now that I think about it, I don't think you've actually talked much in school with anyone else other than me or Kishi. Sorry about not noticing."

What do you do?

[] Talk with Evelyn

[] Pick a group to talk with (write-in how you approach and talk with them)
-[] The girl group
-[] The boy group
-[] The lone girl

[] Skip to lunch.

[] Write-in.

Bringing Evelyn into this was a good call, though for a bit different reasons than you probably thought.
 
[Q] Pick a group to talk with (write-in how you approach and talk with them)
-[Q] The lone girl
--[Q]Hello, nice to meet you, my name is Tamimoe-TAMIKO, MYNAMEISTAMIKO!

That's all I got. Just saying Hi, with a freudian slip.

Contract Bait? Maybe.

Tempted to go for the boy group so I can destroy all our ships but they're hormone fueled so probably a bad idea.

foooouund you~
 
I would seriously advise against doing the typical "purposefully embarrassing Tamiko for funsies" vote. This is so not the times for that sort of crap, considering what this involves and Tamiko's history.
What would you have us do instead then? It's easy to say 'no, don't do this, it's bad/wrong/stupid' but giving an alternative, especially with an explanation, is what really helps change people's minds.
