Your first shot is a wet, muffled-thump detonation that kicks in your hand and drenches you with hot, steaming gore. The sensation of something vital being pulped inside the demon's skull turning your smile into a grin, then into a laugh that would've made Kirika proud.

The beast HOWLS in unnameable, unthinkable pain as you blow its brains apart. It trashes its horned head from side to side, roaring, braying, squealing with desperation to fling you off. You thwart its clumsy attempts by reversing your grip on Muramasa and driving the golden blade right through its forehead, using its already blood-slickened handle as a handhold.

And without any other preamble, you pull the trigger of your Desert Eagle again. And again. And again. Emptying your entire magazine into its braincase, each shot slamming into the insides of its skull with the force of a thunderclap, until something wet explodes at the back of its head. Revealing a ghastly, gory exit wound large enough for you to climb through.

That should have been enough - realistically - to kill the beast twice over. Its brains pulped into slack, useless slurry by your pulverizing shots, and now currently draining out of the gaping hole in its scalp. And for a moment, it looked as if it would topple over and simply die from that catastrophic injury.

But whether to prove that it lived up true to its impossible existence - a malevolent, goatish neverborn that was once an angel cast out from Heaven, or simply because it was one of Ahriman's birthless, deathless summonings that could only be unmade through complete obliteration - it still stood. Despite nearly half of its skull annihilated through the repeated pummeling of something that could, in your experience, punch holes through a tank - it still lived.

And it was now driven mad with anger at the speck of dust that had inflicted such horrific pain to it.

[1/2]

>>37413220

Issuing another pained bellow - this one ripened by the sting of an injured, insulted pride - the beast drops its axe and snatches you out of midair in its fist.

Five spike-knuckled fingers - each one akin to a schoolbus in size and tipped with blackened claws - curl around your small frame in a calloused cage, trapping both your arms to your sides and rendering your Golden Weapons as useless as the Shield ticking on your right arm. You bite back a scream as its grip tightens around you, forcing the wind out of you and compressing your ribs, and you know with a cold certainty that they'll break before you asphyxiate.

But before you could suffer the indignity of a crushing death--

"HEY! GOAT-DILDO!"

A deafening bang, followed by a lightning-quick rasp of metal grinding against metal - and your scabbed, calloused prison immediately goes slack around you, the beast's fingers falling open at the same time that you yourself begin to plummet down to the floor as well. You grit your teeth as you brace for a hard landing, but something snatches you out of the air before you do. something soft, warm, and smelling of blood.

"...Gotcha, Kong." Wendy murmurs into your hair as she clutches you to her chest, in the same princess carry you'd carted her around in earlier. Despite the gore and blood flecking your face, you couldn't help but feel your cheeks heat up at this turn of events.

...Wait. Did Wendy just--

"Can't take the credit for that," Your ex murmurs as the both of you finally land, a safe distance away from the rampaging monster. She lets you down with a huff. "Mickey saved your ass."

[2/3]

>>37413239

"ANOTHER ONE YOU OWE ME, MURDERFACE!" You look up and see your Equerry, still airborne, keeping herself aloft, kicking off of the demon's armor plates or whatever body part she could grab a handhold or get a booted foot onto. All while raking the electrified length of Blueberry Cheesecake Brownie against the creature's bared flesh, drawing blood with every stroke.

After a particularly nasty cut that had had the demon reeling, half of its face sheared right off - the blue-haired Eversor finally leaps away, bloodied cape unfurling as she screams two words.

"NOW, MAMI!"

You whirl around to see Mami at the far end of the room, both hands held out at either side of her - and she opens her eyes just as a veritable storm of yellow ribbons shoot out from every conceivable nook and cranny of the floor itself. All of them snaking, whipping, and slashing through the very air, like an undersea school of long-bodied fish coming together before diving into one single point with hiveminded synchronicity. The point being the giant winged demon that had nearly crushed you in its fist.

And with a sound remarkably similar to that of tearing flesh, they begin to wrap around the daemon. No, not just wrap - they ensnare. They constrict. First looping around its limbs, then snapping taut, pulling this way and that. Robbing the thing of any chance of movement or even struggle.

The beast squeals again, all other emotion gone except for the primal fear piercing whatever was left of its ruined mind. It continued to make them, loud and long, until one of Mami's ribbons find its way around its throat, cinching tight into a neat and choking garrote.

[3/4]

>>37413255

More ribbons stream out of nowhere, even as the beast is practically mummified now, both its arms spread out on either side and its cloven feet lashed together in a pose that could not be called anything else but crucifixion. Before you can wonder if Mami was going overboard with this, however, you are silenced by the ummistakable sound of large, oversized joints giving out in a series of muffled pops. This is then followed by the tell-tale wet snaps of bone breaking apart.

...Jesus. That's...you thought she was just going to tie it down, or something.

"That IS how Mami ties 'em down," Sayaka grins as she comes up beside you, tossing her now-broken swords over her shoulder, before drawing two fresh ones from the inner depths of her cape. "Well, minus the part where she's breaking every bone in their bodies tying them down." A series of snapping noises, each one as loud as a thunderclap, makes her twitch. "Egh. That was probably that thing's backbone. You kinda feel sorry for the thing now, huh?"

"...Shouldn't we be taking it out now?" Wendy asks after a moment, manifesting her knife back into her hand, tossing it casually into the air before catching it with what looks like a clawed thing made out of pure shadow. The appendage jutting out of the still-bleeding stump where her flesh-and-bone arm once was, before a Culexus burned it off with her witchfire. "Mami did say she wouldn't be able to hold it down for long..."

"You know, I think we should." Your Equerry says after a moment, glancing towards the blonde herself - and you see, besides the utterly-focused look in the Vindicare's eyes, something that makes you feel relieved that you're both on the same side.

A cold, calculating cruelty. One that would see any obstacles in its way dealt with in any means possible. A merciless sort of cruelty, found in heroes and villains alike, made sharp and deadly with the conviction that they were doing the right thing.

"...Then again, maybe we should just let her have fun with it." Sayaka's voice trembles slightly. "Murderface? What do you think?"

Ah, I see you are in favour of the broad tastes test when issues of blonde-favouring Warmasters arise: to wit, that so long as any character within the picture can be established as a blonde, then that character for the purposes of satisfying the Warmaster of Happiness test ("natty lickaroo") will be considered a separate and dstinct blonde entity from all the other blondes in that picture, regardless of any character cloning.

However, and with respect, I must strongly disagree with you. As the natty lickaroo has thus far not experimented with the blonde clones of the Second, we cannot conclusively determine if two cloned blondes will be deemd as two blondes for the purposes of the natty lickaroo. Therefore, we must extrapolate from past precedent.

The precedents in general indicate that the Ninth Warmaster (on whom the natty lickaroo is based) has never slept with the same blonde twice after the single course of conduct known as "the one night affair" and "the morning after" (see "The Seventeenth Warmaster").

Furthermore, the rejection of the broad tastes test for the natty lickaroo is grounded firmly in sound policy. The entire rationale for the natty lickaroo is to ensure great luck in the Akashic Realm so long as Murderface & Co are in there, and, in particular, to prevent the termination of the death-flagged Sakura Kyouko. Therefore, it would be unreasonable to expect an average shitposter to accept four clones as four blondes for the purpose of saving Sakura Kyouko.

For the above reasons, I must dissent from my learned brethren shitposters, and accordingly declare that four Saber clones do not four distinct blondes make. A fortiori, four literal Marisa clones do not four distinct blondes make.

>>37414360
I agree that the four Sabers do not count, but I'd argue that it's 2 blondes and 2 clones as although Nero looks similar to the others she has her own distinct background and personality, and aside from appearance is absolutely not related to Sader.

The other two are shitty palette swaps playing with "what if" scenarios. What if Sader was evil? What if Sader was accepted as a grill in her home country? Those shoddy second-rate clones can piss right off.

"The plan was for us to finish it, so we'll finish it," You growl as you step forward, both Golden Weapons still gripped in both your fists. "I was serious about the fucking skull."

You sense your squadmates hesitate yet again - just for a split second - before finally acquiescing. "Fine. Whatever gets this done quicker." Sayaka says drily, grinding both of her swords against each other and making them spark in the contact.

What followed, then, was a quick murder of something broken and paralyzed - but nonetheless something that also continued to struggle and fight the entire time you were killing it. It still roared, it still trashed as Wendy and Sayaka tore it apart with their blades, dismembering it, hacking its wings off first before its limbs.

It gave the mercy killing the air of something foul, like a heathen ritual of sacrifice - but if your two squad mates felt the same way, they didn't show it, and merely carried out your orders in grim, tight-lipped silence.

The beast finally breathed its last when you took its head off with an executioner's beheading cut - the neck bared with the help of Sayaka digging an immaculately-gloved fist into its hollowed-out eye socket, grasping the lip of the ragged hole and then heaving back. Muramasa seemingly growing warmer in your grip as its golden blade tasted the last remaining drops of lifeblood that still coursed through the monster's veins.

"Man, what the fuck is it with you Warmasters and skulls?" Sayaka frowns as you tap your Shield against your gory prize, the car-sized severed head disappearing with a flash of purple light. "Is it some sorta habit you just compulsively pick up when you put the hat on, or something? I know Miss Vintage never got into any of that kind of nonsense. Hell, I doubt anyone before Kharn did."

You shrug. It just...well, it just feels right, you tell her. Like an acquired hobby.

"Yeah? I'll take your word for it." Your Equerry shrugs. "Anyway, where the fuck is Kyoko? She should've been here, she'd have liked to see you charge that fucking thing--"

+ Murderface...? + A weak and horribly-familiar voice crackles into your shared squad connection, and all four of you look up at the sound of it. Your Equerry's face draining of all color as she recognizes it before you could.

+ Kyoko? + You've never heard your best friend sound this weak. Sound this...close to death. Not even back at Big Shell. Not even back when she broke her own spine at Kilgore's. + Kyoko, tell me where you are, I'll get you--+

+ M'fine, really...Got her. Just...just like I promised. + Your best friend's trademark laugh is reduced to a feeble, lung-shot wheezing. + Put up a hell of a fight, but I got her in the end. Roasted the fucker in her own fucking suit. +

Another wheezing, crackling chuckle. + You...you guys go ahead, I'll catch up. Just gotta wait for the...Eversor healing shit to kick in. It takes a bit a'time, don't worry. + A wet cough, followed by a horrible rasping noise. + Sounds worse than it actually is, really...+

+ No. I'm getting you teleported out of here, right now. + You shake your head here, forcing yourself to remain calm enough to act rationally. To act like the Warmaster - the Leader you're supposed to be. + Yuma? Yuma, get Kyoko out of here and into sick bay, now. She's hurt bad, she won't be able to continue with us for the rest of the op--+

+...I can't, Warmaster. + Yuma's reply is a wretched one. + Her signal's too weak down there. Someone needs to boost her signal with their own teleport beacon. I'll be able to lock onto her position then and teleport her out. +

"I'll go," Mami suddenly says, stepping forward. "Chiaki-san, go with Sayaka-san and Wendy to the higher floors, you'll need them in case Oriko has more things like that stationed up there." She gestures to the daemon's corpse you've left in pieces on the floor. "I'll take care of Kyoko-san. Focus on getting this mission done as quickly as you can."

"N-no, I...I should go," Sayaka's face is ashen white, even underneath the mask of blood and gore from all the slaughter earlier. "Kyoko's hurt, and..."

"Sayaka-san, you are the most capable Eversor we have at this moment. Your Warmaster needs you. Finish this with her. I'll make sure Kyoko is safe." Mami gives your Equerry the smile - a smile capable of defusing any situation no matter how tense it got, a smile that could cool any soul running hot with anger or rage.

"...I'll go," Wendy murmurs. "My fault she had to fight that bitch. Let me--"

"Not in the state you're in." Mami cuts her off, frowning now. "We'll talk about your recklessness when we're all back home and complaining about how awful hospital food tastes." The blonde then turns to you. "Chiaki-san, please, let me. I'll catch up with the three of you once I get Kyoko home safely."

It seems you have to choose who's going to rescue your best friend.

Who do you choose?

[]Mami. You trust her. She'll get Kyoko home. She has to.

Is this is the point at which we have to trust Sayaka?

>>37415014

Do we really want her around for when the golden weapons take us over around Oriko? NOPE.

>>37415014
[]Sayaka. If there's anyone who's going to get your best friend back, it's the person who loves her more than you do.
Mami makes a lot of good points, but Sayaka is also much faster than her. Besides, with Mami's ribbons to do crowd control and slow down enemies to make them easier to shoot, she's just as good as Sayaka to bring along.

>>37415014
[X]Mami. You trust her. She'll get Kyoko home. She has to.

Mami certainly is capable, but Ahriman was gunning for her back when Kharn was warmaster. If we send her out alone and isolated, Ahriman may try to act on this opportunity.

>>37415151
Or it could be the point where we need to trust Mami.

The Mami choice is clearly delusional. WAKE UP SHEEPLE. She outright said a one-armed Wendy will be better help for us than her. Think about that. REASON about it. This is an outright lie meant to pull the wool over your eyes! She is planning on killing Kyouko and you all know it!

Plus we know that the red suited fuck's magic doesn't heal properly. The whole squad goes to secure our downed friend. We can spare the time.

plz

really even if we have to do a full extraction right now by sending the whole squad that wouldn't be the worst thing. We've shown the enemy we're capable of hunting them down and actually fighting them. By killing the redsuit we've also disabled (as far as we know) one of their greatest capabilities against us. We've managed to do some good shit here. It would be perferable if we could solve the whole situation right now but. we take what we can get.

everyone remember: first one in, last one out. that was the hint given to us to stop tragedy. I feel like we already fucked that up but. just remember it from here going forward.

>>37415438
There might be repercussions for re-using the warp technology again, though. The last time we did so, the Transcendent One knocked us out long enough for us to be a liability. Imagine the consequences later.

Furthermore, there's no telling how the Akashic operation will affect our movement in time (i.e. how far into the future we've been shifted or not shifted).

>>37415461
Well, are we supposed to interpret that as a general strategy to get all units extracted, or a specific, tactical instruction for Murderface to eternally take point?

Well, this quest is crossover as hell...and the Akiasic Realm is supposed to be The Warp/Limbo...so it stands to reason we could wind up briefly falling out of it anytime or anywhere?

Could you imagine us fighting a giant demon as we're falling out of a portal into another world.

We're standing on it's face, noodly legs bracing apart a jaw the size of a small building while we fire our gun into it as we pass through the scintillating light of a portal and into another world. The foreclaws of the beast hit water just before its hind legs and a giant metal fist slams into the side of the face we were shooting into. Chiaki turns to see a robot even bigger than Tiny Pete, with a nuclear coolant tower as an upper torso/head.

I got mad at Kyoko, for screwing up the Red Culexus caper. I hope I don't see her name in the paper, the obituaries, because that would mean that she's dead.

Of course Kyoko didn't die. Decu won't kill off any of his waifus or give any real punishment for being stupid. Stop panicking, we could slap witches with dildoes and throw Kyoko into a meat grinder naked and there wouldn't be any long term repercussions

>>37416604
Ehh. I got a feeling this might have fucked up any chance we had of Oriko being taken alive/ talked down.
Kyoko would have been helpful in potential getting through to her.

ooooo, I hope we have a long update coming.

>>37415068

You decide to let Sayaka go and pick Kyoko up. While you can certainly see the wisdom of having Mami handle it - the blonde could probably handle anything Oriko throws her way, either with her ribbons or her impeccable lethality with her rifles - you also can't deny that if there's anyone who'll get your best friend back, it's the person who loves her more than you do. The fact that she's your Eversor Rank Leader and an absolute monster with a sword in her hands also helped.

Of course, you'd be lying to yourself if you didn't find Mami's eagerness a bit...strange. What she posited was logical enough, and again, you couldn't deny how tactically sound it was. But something was in her eyes when she pressed for you to send her to save your best friend. It wasn't the stoic, chilling cruelty from earlier, certainly not, but something oddly similar. Something oddly familiar.

...Fuck. No. You're just imagining things. Christ. Mami? Seriously? Her volunteering to fight her way down to your best friend to make sure she got home safe, when any other Magical Girl with her experience and rank would have told you to just suck it up and consider Kyoko's death a 'regretful, but necessary' one?

This place is getting to you, you tell yourself. This fucking place.

"Just try to keep it together until you find her, alright? Going in there like a dildo's not going to help anyone." This you tell the Blueberry just as she finishes healing Wendy's arm, your ex's shadow-prosthetic seemingly having disappeared along with her grinning familiars from earlier. "And after you confirm Kyoko's evac, I want you to sync back up with the squad as quickly as you can."

"You don't have to tell me twice, Murderface. I'm your Equerry, not a fucking recruit fresh out of basic." She snaps at you with her typical brand of bitch-laden venom - but it's spiced with an undercurrent of dread strong enough to make her voice tremble slightly.

[1/2]

>>37416752
Nah, I doubt he would even go that far.

>>37416397
Well, it's either cute brown manly shota or huge stinking perverted drunkard bear. Whould would you pick, Anon?


Wait, actually don't answer that.

>>37416921

She gives Wendy's arm one last once-over, before deeming it good enough for duty and nodding at the American. "I'm trusting you with Murderface, Cooldown. Try not to get her killed before I can."

"...I'll try my best." Wendy intones. "Thanks. And...sorry about--"

"I'll only take your apology if there's something to apologize for. Right now, I just want to focus on getting her back." Sayaka cuts her off, before turning to you and Mami. Offering a textbook salute. "Mami-san. Murderface."

She meets your gaze in particular, your purple eyes and her own blue ones - and something passes between the both of you. Not a pulsed message or even an emotion, but an understanding. A grateful one.

And with that, you watch your Equerry - bloody cape and beastly mechanical sword strapped to her waist and everything - charge towards the floor's stairwell. Descending to the skyscraper's lower floors in order to recover your best friend.

+ Or what's left of her, + Kirika chuckles, now able to speak again with your Desert Eagle holstered and the Muramasa back in its sheath on your hip. + I heard her pulse, Matsuda. It's less a plea for help and more of a mortis-cry of someone afraid of the encroaching oblivion. That one-eyed mongrel is dead, and you've sent off the one Magical Girl who can help you win this fight to play with her corpse. +

+ Don't listen to her, Nameless One. + Dildoes' voice is cold with dignified fury. + If it wasn't for her sentimentality regarding Oriko, this nasty business would have been concluded with the use of shaped charges placed in strategic points of this dreadful building. This mission would have been over long before the red one's life was placed at risk. +

+ Her name's Kyoko, + You tell your past self. + Not the 'Red One', although you have a feeling that Kyoko would have probably liked that nickname. + Sakura Kyoko. +

[2/3]

>>37416939

+ Her name's Kyoko, + You tell your past self. + Not the 'Red One', although you have a feeling that Kyoko would have probably liked that nickname. + Sakura Kyoko. +

+...Yes. Of course. Forgive me. + It's here that you're surprised again - a note of apology in Dildoes' voice, when the most emotion you managed to get from her was cold indifference. + Sometimes I simply forget their names. It's been a while. +

+ That's fine, + You pulse back as you and the remaining two members of your Kill-Team make to ascend to the last few floors of the skyscraper. There'd been a working elevator in the room earlier - Mami had seen it used by the deranged half-daemon, half-Magical Girl cultists - but the goat daemon's arrival had ruined it beyond any hope of utility. As such, you are forced to take the stairs again. + I guess you didn't like the Kyoko of your timeline much? +

There's a pause before Dildoes replies, and when she does, it's with the delay of someone choosing her words carefully. +...She was friendly enough. A bit misguided, and a bit too over-eager for my tastes, but...+ Another pause, and then, a cough. + She was there when I needed her. +

You furrow your brow at this as you, Wendy and Mami begin your ascent of the skyscraper itself, with you taking point, Wendy in the middle and Mami bringing up the rear. All three of you with weapons in your hands, mindful that a horde could come screaming down from the higher floors at any moment, taking each step with a hurried yet cautious pace.

Something's up with how Dildoes is talking about her Kyoko. It could be nothing, but...hm.

Given that MURDERFACE is an earlier iteration of Chiaki Matsuda who went full-on... well, MURDERFACE in Siberia, and given how she reacted to seeing Midori a long long time ago, she hooked up with Murderface.

And then she died a failure like all the others.

Because that the Homura life for you.

if it helps she probably isn't dead RIGHT NOW. that really wouldn't be dramatic enough. What is probably going to happen is Sayaka is either going to get waylaid enroute or they are both going to get jumped as Sayaka reaches Kyoko. Then the prophet will probably at least try some 'I'm going to kill your friend in front of you now because fuck you. suck my magic gold demon dick.'

so if we're lucky we might have one more chance to save her. if sayaka doesn't manage to just evac her out. we'll see how it goes, Sayaka could go crazy and brute force through ambush that might happen. We don't know.

>>37417851
Relationships are a double edged sword. They can keep you sane, but they can also be the tipping point that flips you into despair.

FWIW, I think Sayaka is probably the optimal choice for Kyoko to live, because healing. BUT, if she doesn't recover fully, this is gonna get real messy real quick, and if she was to die, it's an outright apocalypse.

>>37417851
Or Sayaka goes crazy, overexerts herself, then both her and Kyouko witch out, holding hands, surrounded by the flesh of fallen angels.

You should be focused on the mission right now, seriously. With your best friend injured to the point that she couldn't even make a coherent sentence without coughing her lungs and this entire fucking op taking place in nowhere else but Hell itself - the last thing you should be worrying about is what kind of shenanigans one of your past selves got up to in their timeline.

But somehow, you couldn't resist. Maybe it's that thing that happens to the human mind when it's subjected to extreme amounts of stress for a protracted amount of time - it tries to think of anything else and holds onto that, just to prevent itself from breaking down. It's never happened with you before - but then again, you've never been in this kind of situation before, to be completely honest. If you have, you don't remember it.

To be this fucking worried about a team mate making it through the op in one piece. Not only that, but a team mate who's also your best friend.

So of course you ask the fucking question, as you and your team make your way up the stairs. Anything to stop thinking about that. Anything to stop thinking about what could happen if you lost Kyoko here and now. What you would do if you lost one of the few people keeping you sane.

...Well, for one, you'd probably quit busting so much ass to save Oriko, that's for fucking sure.

In any case, you asked it, and when Dildoes finally answered, it was with an ice-cold pulse-voice that could freeze spines and hearts in a single word. It reminded you of a harsher, less kinder Mami - one you accidentally stumbled upon during your days as Girl A. she'd been dressing a particularly-recalcitrant trainee then, reducing the hooligan to wide-eyed, world-shattering sobs.

[1/2]

>>37418258

+ I realize and accept, Nameless One, that you are trying your best to cope with your less than desirable circumstances, and indulging in gossip can prove to be a calming reprieve. + She huffs here. + And I am not known to the fact that you have a blunt nature, blunter than most of our sisters. But even for you, Nameless One, this is achingly tactless. +

She hasn't answered your question yet. Did she or didn't she?

+ ... + She sighs here, an exasperated one. + Does it really matter what I did during my timeline? It has no bearing, no significance in this one, which we've already established to be the last and therefore the most important. Whether I had a relationship with the red one or no, it matters little in the grand scheme of things, and-- +

So she did, then.

Another moment of silence, and you see in your mind's eye the silhouette of a long-haired girl hang her head in shame. + ...Fine. If you must really know, then yes. I had a brief relationship with my timeline's Sakura Kyoko. +

The silhouette shakes its head. + But it wasn't...it wasn't my being disloyal to Madoka. It wasn't because I was straying from our course. It was because...well, we were the only ones left. In my timeline, Madoka had turned into a Witch, slaying both Sayaka and Mami in her rage. Devouring them from where they stood. But I still believed, back then, that the process could be reversed. That she could still be saved. +

+ That, of course, was not the case entirely. I slowly went mad. My Soul Gem turned black no matter what we did. I wanted to surrender. I would have, most likely, until she came with her ghastly lack of manners and absurd eating habits and--+

[2/3]

>>37418282

+ Very well. I'm glad I was able to help. I was beginning to think I would be free to let that particular wound heal, instead of ripping it open every now and then just to satisfy someone's curiosity. + If her tone had been cold before, it was frosty now, with the spiked tang of spite.

Well, now. That's a bit harsh. You just--

+ You just wanted to know, yes. I'm well aware. + Dildoes snaps, before finally going silent. Her chilly presence melting from your mind, immediately and quickly, as if she'd stormed off.

...You hit a nerve there, most likely. You were preparing to apologize when suddenly--

"The next floor." Mami suddenly says, her eyes wide, and it takes you a moment to realize that Dildoes had just uttered the same thing, in the same exact moment. You turn to see the blonde Vindicare's grip shaking around her rifle. "Chiaki-san, Oriko is in the next floor. I'm sure of it."

+ Strange. That's what I was just about to tell you, too, Nameless One. + Dildoes murmurs. + But only because I sense the Golden Weapon nearby. Or at least its will. + A moment's pause. + It's the staff, alright. I can feel its malevolence, even if I were back in that vault you keep storing us in. +

...Does that mean--

+ I wouldn't jump to hasty conclusions, as I do not sense a Golden Weapon about her person. + Your past self's words seem tainted with hesitation, however. + But there are ways around that. Ways to conceal detection. I'd...advise watching your back, Nameless One, just to be safe. +

Christ. Not her too.

+ I am very precise with my choice of words, Nameless One. I rarely say things simply for the act of saying them. + A pause. + In any case, we both believe that Oriko is behind that door. I would suggest a more proactive plan of attack this time. +

Which is?

Hah. You'll keep that in mind, then.

"Chiaki-san?" Mami asks you after a moment, her own brow furrowing in concern. "Are you alright? We lost you there for a moment, I said that--"

Oriko's in the next floor, yes. You nod. You were just...talking to yourself, that's all.

"Ah." Mami and Wendy glance at each other, before the blonde nods at you. "Well, if she really is there, then I would suggest trying diplomacy one last time, Chiaki-san." At your expression, she smiles. "Yes, I know, but she must have seen how we've dispatched a decent portion of her troops. She knows what we can do, now, and she may be more amenable to surrendering this time." She nods here. "Always offer your enemy a chance to surrender, even while you're inches away from cutting their throat. The fear of death can always make a tyrant see his sins for all they are."

I don't thrust the mumi, but it was the plan we had. I say the exact moment she seems to be about to do something funny we go medival on her ass (we should say this to our team so we can all attack togheter)

Just as a gentle reminder: Oriko tried to kill Best Imouto.

By burning her to death.

[]Don't charge in guns blazing. Set charges and blow the floor from under her instead.

oh, as for Mamie's current actions: I think she's terrified of golden weapons. Her clutching her rifle so tightly seems like a nervous reaction to me. her rejecting that golden rifle forever ago probably means she can still feel golden weapons, and evil madoka god still probably tries to tempt her with them. I don't think she's going to out right betray us, she's just super afraid of what golden weapons can do to people, or at least what she suspects they can do to people.She'll only try and put us down if we go super crazy I think.

I understand that Decu has been pretty lenient on killing characters off, but if he flat-out says it's a deathflag, I'd rather not tempt fate and poke the beehive.

I'd like nothing more than to shoot Oriko and get this shit over with, but I have a feeling Decu is doing the same thing here and I'd rather not raise anymore death flags.

You peer inside the abyss that is your inventory. From inside two huge eyes look back at you and gradually you can make out the creature they're attached to. You're looking at a HUGE man of vaguely asian descent with a stocky build and HUGE muscles. Atop his head are what appear to be a pair of bunny ears and a pair of cracked square glasses adorn his eyes. Your sight lingers on his glasses and you feel the beginning of a beautiful fetish blossoming in your heart, but all that is interrupted by his beautiful booming voice: "What the hell do you think you're doing in my quest!?" the man inquires.

You decide to stop existing.

Thinking about it. We do have one advantage over Oriko.

Remember when we used out timestop when we went to rescue our little sister Misaka? How the magical girls where were all like "You are not supposed to be here! Your were supposed to arrive too late!"

It looks like our timestop is the only thing that can throw off the future sight thing that Oriko uses. Once we use it we disconnect ourselves from the chain of events that Oriko foresees and we can take her by surprise.

Just a thought.

Wendy came back in a non-interactive segment of the story and Midori likely got a pass because we just did one really stupid decision (and we still had to pay in-character).

Erebus is a slightly more important character settingwise than she appears, but due to that we also got like three DM prompts for "do you really want to do this, actually want to kill this person?"

So for that same reason it would be very strange if Erebus was left alive. That would feel actually really cheap.

You shake your head at this, letting out a sigh. Fine. Even if your first impulse is to kick the door down and charge in shooting, Mami's logic is unshakeable here. You ARE still after saving Oriko's hide, and it does sound like there's a decent chance that she may surrender after seeing you and your Kill-Team make short work of her minions. Hell, you skullfucked one of her bigger, badder monsters with your gun. If that doesn't make anyone change their minds, well, you tried.

So yeah. You'll try diplomacy again, for all the fucking good it'll do.

But first of all, you want to know how Mami knew. How did she figure out that Oriko was up in the next floor?

Mami blinks at you, seemingly incredulous. "Really? You couldn't tell, Chiaki-san, even when we're this close, in this place?" She shakes her head here, before gesturing to the floors below you, down the stairwell. "I began to feel her presence a couple of floors back. It only got stronger every step we took, and only now hit me with full force."

...You didn't feel it, no, but--

"Felt it too," Wendy murmurs, her brown eyes looking up at you. "Clear as fuckin' day. Thought you knew, since you're point and everything."

Ah. Well. ...Fuck.

"You're distracted," Mami says after a moment. "If it's about Kyouko-san, I'm sure Sayaka-san has things under control. You have to focus on what we're about to do, here and now. More than just our lives hang in the balance, here - Oriko's depending on us, too."

Yeah. Probably.
