STRANGER.
❛ … maybe . when you reach that point , ACCEPTING it or not no longer matters . ❜
❛ RIGHT, at that point, there's probably not MUCH to save. Probably should just accept what you've become -- but it's hard, and I'm tired. I don't WANT this fight anymore. ❜
TSUYU.
she followed closely behind , large eyes taking in each detail of a foreign landscape . throughout her explanation she only nodded along , conveniently disregarding the mention of a memory wipe . logic directed her towards it being part of the girl’s own quirk / though , it was certainly strange that she’d be so open about one such as that . it came off a bit … villain - y . not that she was one to judge ; most ( if not all ) abilities were respectable to some degree in tsuyu’s eyes .
her attention was fully grabbed by further questioning that weakened previous reasoning . to call her appearance strange was normal but to say that she hadn’t seen anybody with an appearance like hers ? that was downright laughable . in a world of quirky powers , mutant - types came in bulk & there were plenty with much stranger features than she . with obvious uncertainty , sayaka’s question was answered .
’ i was born with it . the rest of my family’s like that too … where are you from ? there’s plenty of others around who look weirder than i do where i live. `
Behind WISH GRANTING aliens and powers that allowed her to fight against EVIL -- maybe questioning the stranger’s appearance had been dull of her. Textbooks passed out in class failed to mention strange looking humans -- unless it were in a story of fiction. Tsuyu questioning Sayaka’s origins struck as even odder -- the beginning of doubt that this was just another regular interaction faded. If they stood within the same labyrinth, they should be within the same TOWN -- the same place as the labyrinth opened.
❛ MITAKIHARA TOWN -- but aren’t you too ? We’re in the same place right now. ❜
Boots STOPPED, an echo sound ringing from the halt. Defeating the witch ALWAYS reigned TOP PRIORITY, but no information provided on the identity of the other made sense. She very much could be a PAWN sent by the witch to harm Sayaka -- a obstacle that must be solved immediately.
❛ Do you even know where you WERE before you were here ? ❜
STRANGER.
“Sticks and stones and broken bones are in vogue.”
❛ If BROKEN BONES are in vogue -- I GUESS I'm always fashionable. ❜
KINIMOTO.
“I see.”
Touya’s eyes slide away from the girl and focused on ahead, deciding to take a visit to her hometown once getting the chance. He’d have to avoid bringing his sister there with him to keep her out of danger, the way his companion bounced back from the question raised concern.
“There’s plenty of things to do here in Tomoeda as well. If you ever get the chance to comeback and explore.”
The idea of taking a LEISURE tour around an unexplored town seemed of a pleasant break. Between school, witch hunting, and giving enough attention to family without raising concern, that tour may NEVER come. The conversation just seemed to dim Sayaka’s overall mood.
❛ YEAH -- I’d like to. It seems really nice here, people aren’t as friendly in Mitakihara, anyways.❜
HOMURA.
❛ oh, sor — … g - got it… ❜ luckily, she was able to cut herself off before apologizing again, right after being told not to. to think that this sayaka was not disappointed, and on the contrary was even pleased to see her… there’s a cheerful flutter in her chest at the thought. ❛ eh?! th - the biggest burger? n - no way, i would hardly be able to finish that at all, let alone eat it quickly !! ❜
The beginnings of an apology received a look of disappointment from Sayaka -- although getting BETTER at correcting herself, the habit showed unnecessary WEAKNESS. Sat back relaxed -- she wondered if ringing MADOKA would release tension, the blue girl’s previous approach fading when the other rejected her idea.
❛ That’s the POINT, you gotta try at least. Don’t tell me you’re too wimp to try and eat a big burger.❜
JUUBEY.
yes, family. cousins was the relationship the two incubators decided on, after all, they weren’t siblings ( with juubey being man-made ) but they were still similar. so, cousins. when picked up, the dependent incubator would wrap their tail around sayaka’s shoulder, more of a loose hug really.
❝ unfortunately no. there’s only kyubey and i. ❞
The faintest hint of a smile started at the gesture. It compared to the calmest CAT that enjoyed to be perched upon a shoulder as if it were a parrot -- perhaps a TRICK in attempt to gain her trust, but an efficient trick if that were the case.
❛ It sounds LONELY, but considering I thought there was only Kyubey, it must be nice to at least have SOMEONE. ❜
NEVERMORE?
she was not WRONG , they were called a devil before. ( what an insult to compare them to the lukewarm hell beneath ) what ADORABLE notion to think of them as satan. SMILE touched ivory features, not unlike a venomous snake . distant GHOST of amusement lay in ivory voice; SILK dripping with POISON / ACID tainting all it touched. it did not matter WHAT they were, if they were at all. as long as BOREDOM was killed.
“ i am more than that, i am a truth. just call me nevermore. ”
NEVERMORE -- an odd name, or alias. Several steps taken aback, questioning the other's existence, AND her own. Everything done, never was she ALONE, every moment documented in the other’s mind -- all secrets shared with ONE more, someone that no one even knew was there. A heart beats too fast, shaken by unwanted thoughts.
❛ You coulda’ said anything to me -- why bring up MAMI. Do you LIKE reminding people of their tortured past ? Or what ?! ❜
STRANGER.
A powerful aura could be perceive by the vampire queen as she mingled among humanity in a quest to look for her long lost friend. A foolish attempt that could only result in failure. Many of the citizens that filled the streets of Tokyo paid no attention to her. For the most part, she looked like an average child.
Her frail legs came to a halt as she thought she had finally pinpointed who the aura belonged to. It was something unusual, yet not completely frightening. It brought some warmth to someone that cruelly lacked some.
Listening ineptly to a GEM -- it would eventually lead her to a monster of all despair. A WITCH that would be dead by the sight of sun. A new territory frightened Sayaka -- running into people of HER kind may lead to unwanted FIGHTS. To catch attention of what appeared to be a young girl left left her stopped within the midst of a busy street. It may have been another magical girl -- maybe even one who hunted the same creature, but instinct told her OTHERWISE.
❛ A-are you looking for something ? ❜
STRANGER.
“ … “ prolonged silence because he saw that c u t l a s s , in fact it vanished into nothingness much akin to his armor or shield that he can summon at his will - is this girl a heroic spirit ? thinned brows furrow and the way she played C O Y is slightly entertaining galahad must admit . “ not anymore but you w e r e . “ though . . perhaps she wanted him to play along completely or think his eyes were simply seeing something ( ? ) . “ i wont tell anyone . “
As if a WEIGHT were lifted from the shoulders of the young teen, she let out a hardly audible sigh. Glorious aqua fabric, sparkling like the BRIGHTEST light hitting an empty ocean began to fade. LIGHTING up with blue, a once impressive girl now looked DULL -- now only wearing a typical school uniform.
❛ I hope you're good at keeping SECRETS.❜
STRANGER.
“Hate to break it to you, but any place around here is crawling with Titans. It’s more peaceful inside the walls. Well, the more you go into the inner one. The others are not as good”. A good question to ask here would be ‘who are you?’, not what Eren has actually said.
❛ I have NO clue what you're talking about, but I promise I can show you somewhere cool, and SAFE for that matter. Don't tell me you're scared or something ? ❜
STRANGER.
amazed expression trained on the younger girl , fingers seem FRIGID due to shock , unable to comprehend the stunning display of light that had engulfed the other for a brief few moments . it wasn’t everyday monika got to WITNESS such an incredible thing . even so , her lips curve into a smile , intrigue forming on her porcelain features . it’s like she’s unfased .
❛ . . . wow ! just WHO are you ? ❜
What RULES were there to this situation -- to OWN UP to her secret ? That struck Sayaka as a TERRIBLE idea, what good is MAGIC if everyone knew. Plus getting anyone involved with her ( especially after witnessing her powers ) just left them in danger -- something she would never wish upon ANYONE.
❛ HEY can you keep what you’ve seen between US ? You can ask me anything -- just DON’T let other people know -- ❜
An attempt to imitate the RELAXED nature, though she was never known for her acting. Perhaps that arrangement allowed too much leeway -- but Sayaka felt DESPERATE to keep the secrecy.
HOSHO.
“That’s stupid,” she chimed rather bluntly. “If any of that is true then you should absolutely ask!” As revering as self-sacrifice is, Hanon couldn’t stand aside and let the girl believe such thoughts. Her fingers grasped tight around the other’s as she pulled them up between the two girls.
“I know it’s scary. And it might hurt in the end. But can you really be happy just watching? It’s obvious you care about him, I think he has the right to know how you feel about him. And you have the right to know how he feels about you.”
Eyes wandered to feet -- tears becoming GLASSY, afraid of the fate that laid behind addressing unrequited feelings. The lifestyle she chose to live all for ONE boy -- who may not even love her. Hand loosened, arm falling limp. The ocean seemed SERENE next to a girl nearing grief.
❛ You don't UNDERSTAND what I am -- I'm not even HUMAN anymore. I don't... I don't know what I’d do if he didn’t like me the way I like him. I won’t just be sad -- I’m not normal anymore.❜
MARIKO.
“I wish I could say I was lying to you about being a witch… But that does bring me to your previous question. ‘How?’ ‘How am I a witch?’ it’s… A bit of a long story, so strap yourself in…” Mariko began to explain, stepping to the side as she slowly began pacing back and forth as she spoke.
“I didn’t always live in Mitakihara… I was born and raised in Kawasaki… I was just a normal girl, growing up with my parents and my little sister… One day, Kyubey showed up and offered me a contract… To become a Magical Girl in exchange for fighting witches… I… I wasn’t much of a fighter, so I was a bit hesitant, but when my sister heard about this offer, she jumped on board… Excitedly, I might add…” This was only the beginning of the witch’s tale.
Intently, she listened. It matched many other magical girl's stories so far -- most girls lacking any EXTRAORDINARY traits to set them apart from the crowd. Though, facing the fact that she had been approached by ONE girl instead of two left a very CLEAR answer within Sayaka's mind. The magical girl lifestyle was cruel -- it didn't discriminate. Sympathy rang in her heart, but lips stayed GLUED SHUT to allow the other to continue her story.
IKARI.
▐░▒▓ ►► 「 ɴᴏ. 03 ; 」
AS HE THOUGHT — Sayaka’s commitment to their little game was stronger than any desire for fast food. Shinji was teased into submission, a little embarrassed at having come off aschicken, but part of him was also relieved that she didn’t mind all that much. He managed a wry, defeated smile.
❝ No, I’m not giving up, I just — I was…y’know…making sure. ❞ Yeah, that’s it. As if he had to further justify himself, he reached for the door handle for the two of them to enter.
❛ I’m only joking, ya know.❜
Waiting side by him, she gave the faintest giggle. In contrast to his somewhat sheepish nature, surly her energy seemed OBNOXIOUS. A consistent upbeat attitude helped with uplifting a consistent downcast mind. Perhaps she could shred a decent amount of light in help to CHEER the boy up. Entering, they were almost IMMEDIATELY seated -- as expected. Why go HERE whenever there’s plenty of cheaper alternatives.
❛ I’ll let you get whatever you want, since I’ve given you such a HARD time. ❜
❛ what the FUCK ❜ // @puritycest
sayaka cusses A LOT, mainly to prove she’s older than she actually is. but whenever an adult is around her potty mouth is flushed.
A sword TOSSED away -- disappearing into the open air before her. An EXTRAVAGANT costume decorated with colors that replicated the ocean and a pure white cape, dissolved into what seemed to be a SCHOOL UNIFORM. Face went ghostly white when spotting the stranger -- having thought to be alone.
❛ A-AH you appeared outta NOWHERE !! ❜ // @lovedeluded s.c.
