You are a Magical Girl, and you're not in very good shape.

Not that you've ever been in shape for a long while.

Sure, you can still run fast enough to catch up to a speeding car. You can, if you had enough of a run-up, jump from one skyscraper rooftop to another. You can punch someone hard enough to cave their skull in, you can fire high caliber ordnance without bracing, and you have the reflexes of an ill-mannered rattlesnake.
>>
>>20593427

But you've always felt just a tiny bit sick, somehow. Sluggish. A hot, sticky fever crawling through your veins, sweltering just underneath your skin. Sometimes it's dull and faint enough that you can ignore it, other times it's sharp enough popping enough painkillers to fill a pharmacy doesn't even help a single bit.

It comes and goes, like a soulless, pink-haired demon. Try as they might, not even Kyuubey's smiling, buxom medical staff could figure out what's wrong with you.

Maybe it's the booze. Maybe it's the abuse you've put yourself through catching up.

Or maybe it's just your body trying to destroy itself before you get the chance to.

Strangely, the pain isn't here. Not now.

[1/2]
>>
Hooray!
>>
It's funny. It should be here, ever present, riding the pulse of your blood, forming networks of hot pain inside you. But it's not - you can't even feel it under the superficial sting of all the cuts and bruises that you received from this botched hunting party.

You don't feel it stiffening your fingers in athritic paralysis like it usually does after a long day of handling firearms. You don't feel it catching in your every breath, that stab of pain whenever you take in more than a shallow gulp of air. You don't see it blurring your vision despite your glasses, you don't taste its metallic tang on your mouth when you swallow the bile threatening to drip down your chin.

All you feel is your subordinate gripping your arm as if her very life depended on it, clutching it with both hands. Holding onto you as the both of you make your way to your former partner's current location, the snow crunching underneath your feet as you make the slow, painful journey there.

You didn't deserve to walk away from that.

No happy endings. Not for you. You don't deserve it.

You find Kharn in another clearing. She is sitting on top of what looks like a toppled tree - the stump that it's been roughly hacked from still burning with an unnatural crimson fire. Wakaba Mirai's body, aptly enough, mirrors the burning stump - her corpse is on its knees, arms hacked off at the shoulders. Slowly burning with the same crimson flame. A blackened hole on her neck where her head should have been.

You smell sulfur and brimstone in the air, as well as the oily smoke of burning flesh.

Kharn doesn't seem to notice, not at all. She doesn't even notice your arrival.

She's much too busy examining her prize - a perfectly-bleached skull, reaved clean of all skin, flesh and gristle.

You clear your throat, trying to work up a smile despite the blood on your face, and ask her if it's Mirai's. Kharn blinks at this, her crimson-pinned eyes focusing on you slowly, before she giggles again.

"Of course it is, Murderface. What, did you think I carry skulls around just to show them off?" She nods at Mirai's slowly-smoldering corpse. "I have taken what I wanted from her, except for that swordfight. She was no challenge." She sniffs. "Well, she did hobble me a bit, but that is to the extent of her abilities. I am left...unsatisfied."

...Well. Hopefully she gets hers when the next crazy bitch comes around to shank you.

"Hah! I am still waiting for that day. Hopefully it does not take too long before it does, eh?"

Kharn coughs rather wetly into a clenched fist, before spitting blood into the snow again. "Sometimes, I get tired of living. But then things happen, and I feel like it again." She laughs, before patting the log she's sitting on. "Come, the both of you! Let us sit here and enjoy the afterglow. Our unexpected guest is providing us warmth and light, let us not begrudge her of her final gifts." She gestures to the gruesome human bonfire kneeling in front of her. "What was her name, again? I am forgetting."

"M-Mirai," Midori whispers beside you, pressing her face against your bloody sleeve. Apparently unable to look at what Kharn had done to the remains of what was once her friend. "Wakaba Mirai, M-Miss Valnikov."

"Wakaba Mirai, then." Kharn twists her smile into a scowl as you make your way towards the toppled log, leading Midori to it as well - and it's with rather shaky legs that you lower yourself onto the natural bench. "I will have to ask you to write her name on the underside of her jaw, I think. I am not good with Japanese writing." She places the bleached skull on her lap, and leans back. "I have called for reinforcements, already. They will be here momentarily."

Some good news, at least.

What do you do at this point in time?

This. If her soulgem is still intact, we could save it for later interrogation.

>>20593650

I know it's a long shot but I was thinking of asking Kharn if the name Homura Akemi meant anything to her. If she asks why we are asking just say it was an anonymous message on our phone that said that, and no she can't have a look because the phone was destroyed.

Welp. More of Homuhomu`s Timetravel-Adventures.

Makes you wonder: Seeing your friends die and die time after time in the most gruesome ways imaginable.. I wonder if it hurts every time she witnesses it more or if the pain gets a bit duller with each time.
>>

what happened to Mirai her soul gem?

if it is intact what should we do with it?
>>
>>20593656
If Kyubey's buxom medical team can't do much for us I don't think a prescription would help either.

Spending more time with the medical team probably isn't too high on our list either though since it would probably detract too much from our drinking time

We'd need a body for her to be interrogated in first, but there's something else we could use the soul gem for. IIRC the saints (the magical kind she's from, not the third row ones) have a fetish for collecting soul gems, even broken ones.
>>
>>20593726
These Saints are actually from something?
>>
>>20593704
It hurts less every time. Instead of a harsh stabbing pain inside every time it happens it's just more dull throbbing pain that never lets up. At first it's like hitting a stone with a hammer but after a while it becomes a river washing over it, slowly but surely eroding any defenses you put up.

After long enough you builds a dam for it, and the pain slowly accumulates, sometimes seeping out from small gaps, until eventually it all bursts and you break.
>>
>Several people asking where someone's soulgem is.

I swear to Mephistopheles, if this ends up like Midori's soul gem with people still derping about who has it in a month, i will sign a contract and become a magical anon in exchange for the power to punch people in the face over tcp/ip.

You spend a few moments in relative silence before turning to look at your shivering subordinate, who still has quite the iron grip on your arm. She's deathly pale, and her lower lip is quivering - but she doesn't seem to have any plans of letting go of you. You also get a closer look at the gashes on her arms - and suffice to say you're quite positive that bear claw wounds should not be that clean, nor cut that deeply.

For fuck's sake. You've really done it this time, haven't you?

Chiaki "Murderface" Matsuda, ladies and gentlemen. Ruining everything she touches.

You ask her quietly - finding yourself horrified at the dull scratchiness of your own voice, like you've shouted yourself hoarse - if she's alright, if she needs healing. You know how to seal wounds, at least, until she can get proper medical attention.

She shakes her head, murmuring that she'll be alright. She says your name a moment later, grip tightening on your arm.

You let her be, and it's then that you turn to look at Kharn, who seems to be making her new skull talk, wiggling the lower jaw up and down. You call her attention, and ask her where Mirai's soul gem is.

"Ah, do not worry. Usual protocol, yes? Collect enemy soul gem for interrogation. I have it." She reaches into the depths of her coat to draw out an orange soul gem, almost deep amber. The gilding is decidedly different from yours.

Yes it's a sort of a spin-off manga series (I can't remember the fucking name, probably magica no something something something). It's was made after the anime came out I think.

...Good girl, Kharn. And when we get back to base, we're basically going to force Midori to get those arms looked at. She's not allowed to walk around with open wounds just to be "hardcore".

>>20593782

"We have a device in the lab which should help us interrogate her. A surrogate body, I think if I am using the term correctly." Kharn tosses the soul gem up into the air before catching it with her clawed fingers. "Although, for what she has done, I am tempted to simply crush it and let it be. But I will not do it, because you may want to ask her questions of your own." She shrugs. "What she said to me before I took her skull was very interesting."

It's then that she smiles at you, a secret smile, one that you find yourself irrationally hating for some reason. However, that smile falls, and Kharn hobbles over to you, quick as a flash - and you find your face being grasped by clawed, metallic fingers as cold as death and twice as sharp.

"...Murderface. You are tainted. Your eyes are tainted. It was not like this earlier, before." Kharn says, her brow furrowing, and you smell the acrid scent of blood on her breath. "How did this happen? Did you use one of the golden weapons during the battle, earlier? Why did you not tell me about this...?"

"N-no, Sempai isn't...isn't like that..." Midori weakly protests, trying to pull you back.

How do you respond?

[]Tell Kharn about what happened.
[]Lie.

>>20593849
[X] Tell Kharn about what happened.

It's pretty obvious what happened, lying won't get us anywhere.

First cigarettes, keep our calm. Stick one in Kharn's mouth as well.

"It's been 5 minutes since battle, I was going to tell you during this conversation.

Midori was out of ammo, I passed her my weapon, retrieved a weapon from shield, it was the golden sword, enemy was too close, dropping the sword and retrieving another weapon would have led to subordinate death and/or getting golden desert eagle, killed bear with sword, former owner of katana's voice spoke to me, told her to fuck off, dropped katana.

Is that a sufficient explanation?"
>>
>>20593849

lets not tell her everything in one go, we can tell her about the golden weapons making people do murderous crazy stuff but if we mention being controlled by Kirika, that would skip right to a betrayal scenario.
>>
>>20593907
Then how do you suggest we bullshit our way out of this
>>
Looking through the previous threads, Midori was NOT brief on the golden weapons. Explaining to Kharn is a good opportunity to bring her up to speed.

It seems reasonable enough, but I don't much like it.
>>
>>20593849
[x]Lie.
"If you see anything, it's probably a side-effect from when I used them earlier."

We can trust Kharn with our life, but not more than that, and our corruption is a little more than that since it won't kill us, just make us a puppet.
>>
>>20593885
[X] Lie.

"I didn't touch anything golden, but a pink haired demon came to visit, it usually ends up with me looking like this."
>>
>>20593907
This is a matter of our life since if we go flesh of fallen angels we are dead, whether by our hand or someone else's.
>>
>>20593907
This becomes even worse when you consider how lowly we value our life.

She's probably already implanted some secret directive into Midori whilst they were making Takoyaki, we should never of trusted her with our subordinate!
>>
>>20593930
I'm not saying we should or even *can* lie to her here, just that we should be careful about the reasons why.

Telling her because we have her eyes and she obviously knows why is one thing. Doing it because of trust is another.
>>
>>20593956
We need to trust her to some degree since she is teaching us to control the golden weapons and if she knows but we lie then that immediately shows a lack of trust.
>>
Something like "I was going to tell you, but I got sidetracked by fighting for control. The schedule for that treatment? As Warmaster in training, I want that sped up from "soon" to "now". Shield dispensed the golden pigsticker at the wrong fucking time and it was a choice between using it or let Midori die. That a good enough explenation for you?"

Kharn narrows her own midnight-black, crimson-pinned eyes as she stares right into yours - and there's enough sunlight left to let you see your own face reflected in her lightless orbs. It's...not a pretty sight, all told. You're a mess, and your own black eyes aren't doing anything much to help. YOu clear your throat, and tell her exactly what happened - minus the bit about Kirika, of course. She probably doesn't need to know that.

It's only after a few moments that Kharn releases you, shaking her head and letting out a sigh. "...It truly has taken you, I see. I was hoping that this was not the case, you know, Murderface? I was hoping that it was only to safeguard you against the golden things, not to try and retard what is already there."

It's then that she takes a flask from the inside of her coat, uncapping it delicately with her elongated, skeletal fingers - and she takes a healthy pull from it, before tossing it to you. "Drink it. The darkness is heavy, this time. It will take some time for it to clear, but it will. For now, do not touch any of them. It is forbidden." She nods to Midori. "You. Ensure that Murderface does not play the silly buggers with us. Do not let her play with her golden toys. Alright?"

Midori nods at this, her own eyes wide, and pulls you closer to her. She's still shivering, and you feel her slowly going cold beside you.

"I will not let this cast a shadow on our reunion, though. Souji and I will fix you, that I am sure." Kharn says as she takes her place back on the log, grinning. "The treatment will work. I will not rest until it does."

You take a moment to gently and carefully pull your arm from Midori's grasp - and you're treated to the tearful, almost heartbroken look your subordinate gives you as she feebly whimpers in protest. You recognize this display as someone slowly slipping into shock - and it's not a pretty sight, considering the contrast of how she was only a few hours earlier. Oh, and the fact that it's all your goddamn fault.

You curl your arm around her waist - eliciting a weak gasp of surprise from your green-haired subordinate - and it's then that you pull her as close to you as you can, making her body press against yours. Sharing what little warmth you had at that moment, warmth you try to resupply by drinking very deeply from the flask Kharn offered you. Despite your own mouth tasting like clotting blood right about now, your first dose of alcohol for quite some time now could not have tasted better. It goes down nice and easy, and you could have drained the entire flask if you wanted to, with only the thought that Kharn may want some stopping you from doing so.

"S-sempai..." You hear Midori murmur against your collar, her head leaning against your shoulder, and you merely squeeze her gently in response. Hopefully, she'll get the idea and rest instead of making you have to say it. This doesn't need to get any more awkward between the both of you.

You clear your throat, and ask Kharn quietly about the treatment itself. What they're going to do to you to stop this reaction you're getting from the Golden Weapons.

>>20594499
I'm betting 50 Homubucks that it involves excruciating agony, who's in with me?
>>
>>20594485

"Oh, it is painful. Very painful. It is nothing I would wish on my most annoying enemy, Murderface. The pain is unlike anything you will ever feel. You will want to claw your own heart out of your chest before it finishes."

She says this with a playful grin on her face, which makes you ask her again, but to not screw around this time.

"It is a generally simple procedure." Kharn shrugs. "It is a two-pronged process, what we have. If the first does not work, then we will have to use the other. The first is painless, and is generally easy, but is a temporary fix. The second..." Your former partner smiles, before glancing down at her hands, at her brutally-clawed fingers glinting blackly with malevolence. "...it changes you. That is all I am allowed to say, seeing as the one who is asking is not fully ratified as Warmaster yet."

You open your mouth to protest at this, but Kharn shakes her head, her long black hair flowing behind her. "Stop the questions and be patient, instead. We will be doing the treatment tomorrow. I am thinking that this incident pushes it up a bit in schedule, yes? We will begin the day with it. Hopefully by then, your darkness will have receded." She nods at you, smiling. "It will be nice for you to spend at least one last night in someone's arms. If we resort to the second method, it will be a month before you wake up."

Makes sense. The second procedure is the amputation and replacement of the limbs, so that you can't 'directly' use the golden objects.

The golden objects, without their 'connection' to its host, will 'die' and become a typical, if magic, object. Thus, MALAL. Thus, Homura's, and now Chiaki's, broken shield

I would guess that the first method involves imbuing a resistance to said corruption after clearing it out. Sort of like giving antibiotics; it works beautifully to kill bacteria if you take all of it, but it will probably not work well on any bacteria that survive it.

The second one would probably be a drastic alteration of Chiaki's very being. Seeing how Kharn reacted to mentioning it, I would guess that it would somehow make the corruption a fundamental part of Chiaki, rather than an invasive influence. If this is true, Chiaki can still be very corrupted, but it won't impact her mental faculties or personality an awful lot. She may even draw even greater strength from it. But in doing so, I'm going to guess that it's going to leave some very conspicuous marks on her. Like metal claws and conspicuous black eyes with glowing-red pupils.

You frown at Kharn at this, before turning slightly to check your subordinate's reaction. Thankfully, Midori seems to have gone to sleep, her breaths warm against your cheek. You gently shake her awake, reminding her that she has to stay conscious until the reinforcements arrive - and she murmurs something that makes you feel all the warmer.

"I...I wouldn't mind if it's you, sempai..."

Kharn's snorting laughter could not any be more out of place, and you crouch down to grab a fistful of snow to fling at her. It connects, exploding in a powdery mess all over her hair, but she laughs still, startlingly-clear laughter that sails above the crackle of a Magical Girl's corpse being slowly roasted in an impromptu bonfire.

You grumble an epithet towards her, before disobeying your own advice and closing your eyes. You're...tired. Very tired. Maybe just rest your eyes a little bit...

Your former partner's laughter fades, along with the sound of a metal giant stomping into the snow, venturing ever closer. Accompanied with the guttural snarl of a truck engine.

This time, you dream of nothing. Just an endless, lightless void, swallowing you whole.

And you're somehow all right with that.

You wake up back on your bed, in your room. The bed you woke up in before this entire mess with the bears started. It's a nice comfy bed, and it's really warm, and it's very...drafty, for some reason. Even with the blanket on top of you.

You creak your eyes open, squinting at the harsh fluorescent lighting coming from the ceiling, and you reach up to rub the grit caking your eyelids. Or rather, you try to, but your right arm is...numb, somehow. You can't feel it or move it - something seems to be weighing it down.

...Did Kharn just fucking take your arm off? Was this what she was trying to tell you about that second method? Did the Betrayer finally make her move and turned you into her personal gimp--

You open your eyes a bit wider, and you realize that you're in bed with Midori again.

And the both of you are not wearing any clothes.

And Souji is sitting on a chair beside the bed, leaning back on it, reading what looks to be the first volume of -4 STR.

"Took you long enough." The young man flicks his eyes at you, in a very thoroughly disinterested tone of voice.

How do you react?

I usually like to give the calm rational suggestion to a scenario, but there are few ways to take this that are not bad.

So I have laid out a 7 step plan:

3) Resist Urge to murder a little harder.
4) Ask where our clothes are, and why Souji is watching two naked girls sleep.
5) We really shouldn't murder him, he's doing the treatment. So don't murder him.
6) Process this information in a rational matter and decide on a more informed course of action.
7) At no point in the process do any murder.

You know, two things, Guys.

1. If they somehow have a procedure against the Corruption of Golden Weapons, Chiaki pretty much knows right now what we knew thanks to the Mami-Flashback: This happened before AND not only does QB know about it, he knew about it to such an extent that they devised countermeasures against it. In short: QB fucked us over. Again.

2. There was never any need for QB to test the corruption of the Golden Weapons. Never. He already knew about it, what means that him forcing the Golden Shit on us seems like him having a much bigger agenda than just "Test them." Something is seriously off. Does he expect us to first get corrupted by them and than after realize what we have done to witch out?

3. Demand Explanation from Kharn. How does she know about this. Is this what happened to her.

4. If there is a process for "decorrupting" us how come there isn`t a reliable process for NOT TURNING MAGICAL GIRLS INTO FUCKIGN WITCHES since Grief-Seeds only seem to work partially.

I think Chiaki herself is at a point where she really should start to demand answers because this shit does not fly.

More sign that Pinky was the third member of our team with Kharn? And that we ripped her heart out at the end?

It's only after a long while of the both of you staring sullenly at each other - the stony silence between you broken only by the soft sound of Midori's deep, even breathing - that you grumble out a rather crude, if rather crudely-worded invitation. Sounding completely the opposite as you say it, making it damn well clear that you will break every bone in his body if he so much as thinks about taking you up on it. He merely smirks at this, and it's then that you add the second barb - and he noticeably flinches at this, this time frowning.

"Cute." Is all he says, before turning his attention back to the doujin at hand, flipping to the next page. "You probably shouldn't call the guy who's going to be handling your treatment tomorrow as some jerk who lusts over his younger sister, you know. Anything involving soul gems are pretty tricky. One wrong move, and we'll be sweeping up the remains of your soul in a dustpan."

...Well. The guy has a tongue, you suppose. You let that one slide - as much as you hate to admit it, he's got the advantage on you - and you ask him to get you something hot to drink. Coffee, perhaps. Spiked with vodka.

"What am I, your secretary?" Souji snaps, but it's obvious that his heart isn't into it - and he slowly gets up from his seat, dropping the doujin on his chair. "Fine, just stay there. Don't move around too much or your bandages'll tear away." He lets out a sigh, before walking towards the door. "Don't wake up your friend, either. Let her sleep it off. She's been through a lot of trauma."

1-3 are pretty good signs that we have been insufficiently paranoid in regards to the thrice-damned incubator. Either way, yelling about it will just let him know that we know that he knows that we know, and we can't have that now can we?

1 we never found out if Mami came forward about the golden muskets and if she did then maybe it was the first attempts at her controlling them that causd her to be sidelined for good.

2 he may have been testing them for potency or our reaction to them, if we had turned Kirika from the start then maybe the treatment would have been useless

3 possibly we caused her to get metal limbs possibly that was part of her treatment possibly it was punishment for whatever she took the blame for us for

4 different system and it isn't in Kyuubey's interests.
If he is still trying to stop heat death then he needs grief seeds to consume for which he needs witches and if Pinky's corruption doesn't produce them then he needs to control it

You blink at this, before raising your left arm. You didn't feel them before, but you are sporting quite the impressive array of bandages. You reach up to touch your cheek, and you feel gauze covering some parts of your face.

"Nice tits, by the way. Nothing like Kharn's, though." Souji says, before quickly closing the door behind him and making a run for it. Narrowly avoiding being decapitated by the alarm clock you've just thrown at him, the device shattering against the door instead.

Beside you, Midori is still sleeping. And naked.

So it hasn't occurred to you at all that the procedure might have only been developed because they were able to get comparative readings off of our Golden DEagle and Muramasa in the weeks that QB had them?
>>
>>20595014
1: Perfectly reasonable; QB specifically stated that he had never encountered anything like our golden DEagle. Obviously, this was a flat-out lie.
2: He was testing OUR reaction to them.
3: Yes, yes, we'll get to that.
4: Because Incubators incubate grief and use it as fuel to prevent the heat death of the universe.

>>
>>20595070
No, because at the very least Kharn exisits, she's had five golden weapons longer then us, and has already had the procedure done to her.

Unless this all happened like, LAST WEEK, then QB's known for a while.

Which we already knew, or suspected, thanks to the Mami flashback, but only now know enough in character that we can properly discuss it without it being metagame knowledge.

How appropriate that we're getting ready for the next flashback...

Ruffle Midori's hair or poke fluffy cheeks.

>>
>>20595014
>3. Demand Explanation from Kharn. How does she know about this. Is this what happened to her.

This, when we get the chance I think it'll be very important towards understanding what Pinky is doing.

We know that Golden Weapons have been appearing before we arrived here, suggesting that this world was either:-
a) being cultivated for something, and that we randomly showed up
b) being cultivated for something, knowing that we would show up or being planed explicitly because we were going to show up
c) we came here originally because something was being cultivated here

It's out of the question to assume that our presence and the Golden Weapons are completely unrelated, as Pinky has told us they're related to us (not that you can discount her lying). What the connection is though, remains a mystery. I'm not satisfied with the 'scavenger hunt' explanation.

Regardless knowing what the real history is here could shed light on many questions, and right before we go into treatment is the perfect time to answer.
>>
>>20595102

I agree with this guy. I'm fine with becoming Chiaki, but we need to instill the fear of Murderface in some schmucks and soon.
>>
>>20595106
We don't know for sure that Kharn has the 5 golden weapons. Pinky only told us that someone has 5. Making assumptions like that could be costly.
>>
>>20595068
>What do you do before your coffee gets here?
Wrap your arm around Midori, carefully, not to wake her up. Just that, nothing creepy! Check how bad is the condition of her arms.

Looks whether your phone is within arm's reach. Calling right net to sleeping person would be rude. But we might send some texts.

>>
>>20595068

Get up, get dressed and make some phone calls, I doubt Moble phones will work here, we need to find a landline. We need to call Iori, but not directly. First call Mami to ask about the situation and then call Iori.

I can imagine being told.

"while you were recovering, Ioro entered a contract. Here wish was 'to be strong enough to be worthy of Chiaki Matsuda's love'."

"Two weeks later she expired"
>>
>>20595102
Will you shut up? All your suggested actions will do is earn us a reprimand and greater consideration on whether we need to be retired.
You'll do nothing but reinforce the assessment that we can't control ourselves and need to either be tightly controlled to limit collateral damage or to be retired.

Pinky seems to be following us though not the other way around. I would say that she planned this out far in advance and finally once it all was ready pulled us down the rabbit hole

pft, they tolerated us before when kneecapping the annoying was an expected behavior for us, and they'll do it again. not saying we kneecap the ass, just some decent bruising. a limp for a couple weeks, not the rest of his life. we may be lower than dirt, but doesn't mean you get to wipe your shit on ol' murderface

But Mami was supposed to have the largest breasts in the officio according to her flashback.

We technically already know, as Midori's been established as have the third biggest cupsize after Kharn and Mami, and a hoodie ain't going to make that a TOTAL mystery.

But just for the sake of science, let's look anyway. On the excuse we're checking her injuries.

Kharn's possibly banging Souji and probably wouldn't appreciate us injuring him.

>>20595199
Was she? I thought the officio was the magical girl side of QB heavy industries and the only person above it was the mutant cat himself
>>
>>20595189
too far. i'm thinking a punch to a major muscle group, preferably thigh. nice deep bruise = pain for a week, limp for three.

got this experience playing basketball, got kneed in thigh. painful, but not crippling, not permanently damaging, but limping when there's no pain for a couple weeks is a weird enough to make a strong reminder
>>
>>20595068
In spite of all the other anons perversion, I will suggest that we just get dressed.

Also, do you think that if we told Kharn Soji was checking Midori and us out she's break his kneecaps? It seems clear that if there is anything between those two (and there is) digital women are fine, but that might not extend into the third dimension.

Also, did he say treatment tomorrow? Shouldn't it be today? Or did we only sleep for a few hours?

That doesn't hold water if Mami was Warmaster at the time of her flashback.

>>20595229
I'd much rather question his sexuality given that there were 2 naked girls in front of him and he's just casually reading his porn instead. Kharn should find that amusing.
>>
>>20595226
That is quite possible

But I thought she wasn't the warmaster?
>>
>>20595241

Maybe he just thinks it's not sexy if he's the top? Knowing his possible girlfriend, he'd never really get the chance to be.
>>
>>20595241

Meh, Souji's already probably getting some from a freaky chick with huge boobs and robo limbs and who's probably willing to be crazy in bed.

It's childish to assume or joke that the only reason he's disinterested in us is because of something silly.
>>
>>20595241
He's boning Kharn. She's not worried about his sexuality. If anything, that's relieving, she can trust him. Hell no I'm not helping that ass. I wish to give him some pain, but not injury. Well, if he doesn't straighten up. Too late to deliver lesson now.

>So many laughing anime whores...I want them all!

A lot of people in this thread don't seem to realize that in a hardboiled drama you get to shoot people you don't like and still be a professional. Or at least a loose cannon that the brass rides but ultimately respects. We're becoming the brass, so we don't even have to worry about that part.

We should at least fuck Souji up a little.
>>
>>20595266
I will go along with a bit of action to put the fear of murderface in him, but no further.

Indiscriminate damage of allies is unprofessional.
>>
>>20595266
We're trying to be a professional. I believe we agreed earlier on not abusing our newfound power from the warmaster rank such as not ordering around people for non-work related tasks. Outright injuring people just because we can get away with it is a bit worse than ordering subordinates to do shit for us.
>>
>>20595266
We should fuck him up AFTER he's done being the guy who will ultimately try to fix us. Being antagonistic while maintaining mutual respect is one thing, but being actively malicious is a whole another.
What people apparently don't realize is that injuring someone falls squarely in the other. Point of being antagonistic is returning proportional harm, not kneecaping people.
>>
>>20595265

Oh.... oh god. I'm... seeing it now. The two of them, on a nice candlelit date, celebrating the operation on the new Warmaster being a success. Weeks of work, they've finally shipped her back to Japan, and they finally get a chance to be alone. Kharn goes to pick up her nice china teacup, shatters the thing with her claws, gets tea all over her nice white dress.

There were no survivors.
>>
>>20595276
>Indiscriminate disrespect of living weapons is stupid.
And we should attempt a cure.
>>
>>20595266
I think we should at least kick him in the balls. With some run-up of course. Seeing him walk funny for a whole week would be totally worth it.

On a sidenote: I don`t think that Chiaki is a full lesbian, its just that there seems to be a lack of males that aren`t either: a) weak b) annoying or c) try to kill us in this quest so far.
>>
>>20595266
Yeah because fucking up the person who has to dick around with our soul gem is a great idea

We can stay killing people who need it but given our becoming the brass and trying to improve ourself we sort of can't just go around shooting or injuring everyone who annoys us as much as we might like to.
>>
>>20595301
Agreed, just that crippling fear of hurting somebody we actually care for (relationships) > loneliness... so far.
>>
>hurting Souji
Nope. Let's fight sass with sass, inane remarks with inane remarks. No need to get physical.

"You know, normally I'd hurt a person for saying that, but in your case, I'll pass, because I'm pretty sure you'd end up liking it."
>>
>>20595301
I get the feeling that Chiaki might not quite know what to do with this whole 'love' and 'lust' thing. The only people around that seem to be throwing themselves at her, though, seem to be girls, so... I guess she's into them, right? That's how this whole thing works, right? It's not like she has any practice with it, so if girls are into her, that must mean she's a lesbian, right?

Murderface, on the other hand, likely had no use for people outside of the occasional drinking buddy, and would certainly not want to get attached to anyone.

And Homura, if we actually were once her at one point, was full on Madokasexual, so that doesn't really help us now.
>>
>>20595301
We seem to be pretty damn close to conducting the /u/ train though.

I think it is mainly that while Chiaki doesn't mind men she is a magical girl and you don't really get that many guys in the business and so you don't get close to people due to the business.

And then we have the fact it is Chiaki who is probably the last person who should be in any sort of relationship period let alone a romantic one
>>
>>20595305

Can we fuck him up after he's done messing with our soul gem?

I'm not saying to shoot his knees out, but I seriously think he needs a good punch to the face, at least.
>>
>>20595332
It would be rather comical that after all of this Matsuda somehow manages to settle into a perfectly normal heterosexual relationship much to the dismay of all the girls throwing themselves at her.

But yeah, there really haven't been any males in this quest. There's Garcia, that fanfiction Gary Stu, Kilgore, and Souji. Not really good choices.
>>
>>20595068

[x]Sneak out of bed and at least put a shirt on. Leave your pillow where you were laying so Midori will hug it and now get lonely.

Magical girls and lesbians go hand in hand. It is almost redundant.

You glower silently at the door that had protected Souji at the last moment from your well-aimed projectile, before letting out a sigh and touching the gauze covering your cheek. If there's anything you really despise about this job, it's the moments that you spend in recovery, all bandaged up like some sort of invalid.

That's not to say you mind bumming out or just spending an entire day drinking wine and watching TV and doing absolutely nothing in the way of being productive - it's just that being inactive as you wait for your injuries to heal means, to you, that you were not good enough to get it right the first time, so to speak. There were snags. There were setbacks. You let yourself get mauled by a bear. That sort of thing.

Well, nothing for it. You lie back on the bed, ignoring your self-consciousness nagging you to pull the blanket back up to your chest as you wait for Souji to come back with your coffee. Being chaste isn't something you're really good at or care about much. Of course, you have your own sense of privacy and modesty, but it tends to get shoved neatly to the side with more important things. Work-related things.

Also, she's already showed up on Pinky's radar. She was IN THE ROOM with Iori, Midori, and us during the rapeshow.

If we forget about her in Garcia's hands, I highly, highly doubt that she'll be gone for good. She'll be back, just in a way thats the worst possible outcome for us.

. . .

You reach over and compare sizes with Midori.

Manually.

Soft. Very soft.

And yes, she's bigger than you. Two sizes bigger, at the very least.

It's...it's almost as if Mami was here in the bed with you.

You stop comparing as soon as you hear the doorknob rattle. Souji comes in with your coffee, grumbling about something, and you try to act as if you haven't been nearly caught groping your own subordinate.

Why do you do these things to yourself?

"Coffee. Black. No sugar. Vodka." The young man intones in a rather irritated voice, placing it on the bedstand nearest you, before taking his place back on the chair. The book you bought him being flipped back to where he let off. "Drink it while it's still hot. I'm not going to make you another if it gets cold."

You sit up carefully, ensuring that this time the blanket doesn't drop below chest height for you, securing it underneath your arms - and it's with a furtive, bandaged hand that you take the cup of steaming brew. You give it a hesitant sip, and frown at the bitterness of the coffee mixing with the alcohol. It tastes horrible, but at least it's warm.

>>20595554
For us I think the bittersweet ending would be everyone dies except Iori who survives because somehow we keep her away from mutant cats, pinky, golden weapons etc only for her to lose the will to live when we die at the end and jump to another timeline after killing all the golden weapon users and probably our friends because they get the magical weapons

>>20595562

"Kharn's getting your dinner ready, by the way." Souji says after you take another sip of the horrible-tasting restorative. "Bear takes a bit to cook, and it stinks up the place, so she's doing it topside. You can join her if you want." Another turn of a page. "I'll watch over your friend here. See if she needs anything when she does wake up."

Well. That's...friendly of him, you suppose, despite him being an absolute dick about everything else.

Seconding.

Though Souji's acerbic (but still remarkably normal) behavior is probably indicative of Misaka's good health, it never hurts to make sure.

Sadly, a complete time rewind is probably the best Matsuda can hope for. Midori wouldn't be erased or anything, she'd probably go back to being an unappreciated magical girl with the saints and probably would not know of Homura as she wouldn't become Murderface. Same with Iori, Misaka, and other non-Madoka characters.

>>
>>20595775
As far as I can tell the guards are plenty respectful. Souji is the only one who stands out and that's probably because he's the lead scientist or whatever and banging Kharn. Plus, he's based off Accelerator.

You're a magical girl. You don't ask for clothes. Just transform into costume.

Thank Souji and go up top. There's still plenty of stuff to ask Kharn and while she's cooking bears sounds like a good opportunity as any.

No I just think that we don't need to be retarded and hurt people because we dislike them.

Having the rank and our reputation does enough for respect and fear being fucked with by people happens only once and only gets them anywhere until we messily end them?

Currently Souji is disrespectful but professional enough to not start causing actual harm, we don't have to like him but given that we do not currently outrank him nor will we probably have anything to do with him once we outrank him we just have to deal with it

You drain the last of the coffee - not caring if it burned its way down your throat - before placing the cup back onto the bedside table and then transforming, right under the sheets. There's a palpable snap of electric charge in the air, a release of energy that makes the blanket covering you billow out slightly - and it's then that you carefully extract your arm from under your sleeping subordinate.

Shooting a glance at Souji to make sure he's not sneaking a peek, you lift the blanket slightly to take a look at Midori's injuries - they seem to be confined to her arms, although she is sporting what looks like a nasty cut in her stomach. Puncture wound, probably, considering how the same spot on her back is bandaged up, too.

...Well, despite your doing your level best to inadvertently hack your subordinate to pieces, it seems she's doing fine and on the way to recovery. You slip off of the bed, slowly and carefully, remembering to fill the gap you've left with your own pillow. Besides this, you make sure she's tucked in, with no chance of the blanket inadvertenly revealing anything incriminating to the one sitting vigil.

You finally straighten up in your fresh new costume. It's a new one, as your Soul Gem is wont to create a pristine copy with every time you transform. Again the pantyhose hitching a bit too high up for comfort, but you'll adjust that later. Your shield heavy on your right arm, you pat the unreliable little bastard - before giving Souji a gruff word of thanks as you make your way out.

"No problem." For once, Souji doesn't sound like he's sneering. Or having a thousand dicks in his mouth. "Thank you for getting Misaka back here safely. For the second time."
>>

i get a nagging sense that we should not leave Midori alone with him for some reason...

maybe it is just because of the possibility of things going south (which they usually do)

Clearly it's a "too terrible for mortal minds" method (with likely fleshmetal limbs outcome) and that's just the first excuse Kharn thought of as to why to not tell us until the first procedure fails.

>>20595945
He could be cheerful of being with Midori nor not being with Matsuda.

The second method may not be needed until the first one fails. And while we may outrank everyone here, we're NOT above QB, and he likely told them to use option two if the first fails with or without our consent.

We should ask Kharn about the part where she coughs up blood.

You stop momentarily in your tracks at this, before nodding silently. All you get from him is the turning of another page of the porn he's reading, and you clamp down on the impulse to punch his very punchable face as you make your way to the elevator - and consequently, topside.

The trip is short, uneventful, and by the time the elevator doors slide open, you realize that you've been unconscious for quite a while. Sunlight had come and gone, and the night sky is a rather peaceful, if star-filled one. The courtyard where everyone got prepped for the bear hunt is somewhat empty, except for a few soldiers gathering around fires - the rest seem to be patrolling outside.

Your former partner and good friend, Kharn, is at the very center of the courtyard, as usual. She is attending to a very large and very active grill,the coals inside smoldering red with heat - the aluminum racks heaving with thick slabs of greasy bear meat, each one sizzling as they cooked. The process itself is making quite the plue of smoke - Souji is right, it does present a rather unique stench. But most of that seems to be hidden with a careful - or liberal - amount of spices involved, and you can faintly smell crushed garlic and pepper in the roasting aroma.

Not a bad dinner to wake up to, you think. You call Kharn's attention, and she turns to you, all smiles. Showing off the apron she is wearing over her clothes - the kitschy words 'Kiss The Chef' embroidered on the pink material.

"Ah, Murderface! I was worried you were going to sleep through dinner!" Kharn greets you, a grease-covered spatula held delicately with her claws. "Very sorry if you woke up without any clothes and just bandages, Midori was in a very bad way, and she needed...body warmth, you know? Skin to skin. Could not help it." Kharn shrugs helplessly, although you can tell by the way she's grinning that she's not exactly being truthful here. "Ah, but it all works out, I am imagining! I made sure Souji is also there, in case emergency things are needed. He is doctor, too, besides being scientist, you know?"

Well, you didn't know that, but you tell Kharn that there's really nothing between you and Midori. Nothing at least on your end, anyway.

"Ayah. Do not presume to tell me these things, Murderface, I know you," Kharn brandishes the spatula at your direction, clicking her tongue in mock admonishment. "You say one thing, and mean the other. Do not think it works on me, we have spilt enough blood and killed enough souls together. I would like to think that offers us a unique understanding of each other, yes?"

That's all well and good, but isn't she forgetting that you don't remember a thing about the time you spent together?

"Of course that is in put into consideration!" Kharn says, blinking, before the grin comes back on again. "I do not cook simply because I feel like it, Murderface! When I do, it is for a reason!" She points towards a ruggedized cooler next to the grill. "Ah, there, get a drink of your own, and I will start regaling you of tales about our past. You should listen, because I will not repeat it, no matter how much you beg." She flips one of the massive steaks with a flick of the spatula, the large slab of meat making the rack groan.

"I will tell you about the Murderer, the Betrayer, and the Ghost."

Finally. A chance to get a bit of your past life back.

Ah yes, I had forgotten that. Even the happy ending has despair.

Gen Urobuchi, ladies and gentlemen.

I know it's not the best idea, but it would be so easy, all we'd have to do is stop holding her at arm's length. All it'd take is a moment of weakness where Chiaki gives in...

Damn straight.

I think she has potential to become something more than she is right now. While there is a distinct possibility of her becoming a yandere variant, she also shown to be capable under duress and has a sort of maturity that comes with a lifetime of hardship. She's been burned badly by life and has coped with it by crushing on Murderface, but as Chiaki's subordinate, she'll be exposed to almost every bit of the Warmaster training that Chiaki will experience. As long as she doesn't bury her head in the ground (or in Matsuda's chest) and isn't scarred by everything, she could become a very capable MG.

We just need to make sure that she doesn't turn into Iori 2.0, or the MG equivalent of Petyr Baelish with frightening illusion powers.

I think if we were responsible for illusionist puella magi Littlefinger, we could die relatively happy with the knowledge that though she may have killed us, we will have created the greatest monster.

Go forth wearing our face, and bring ruin to all who oppose you~

Guys, I'm less worried about making Midori into something that inconveniences us(yandere, whatever) and more about just emotionally wrecking a poor kid like her. This is less about self-preservation and more about not being a douchebag.

Besides, not all emotionally obsessive people get "entertaining" mental problems when broken, sometimes they just get depressed and shut down. :|

This will be quite a journey for both Chiaki and Midori. Perhaps Midori can teach Chiaki how to be more of a human being while Chiaki provides Midori stability and emotional support. Kind of like what Mami seemed to intend with Iori's relationship with Chiaki, only with less clingy over-protectiveness. As odd as it sounds, I think that Midori has a higher chance of developing a healthy relationship (platonic or otherwise) with Chiaki moreso than Iori, despite the less than auspicious introduction of having her legs shot out from under her.
