—It's okay! We don't have to keep this stuff a secret.

[ THAT SURE IS A GLOVED HAND COVERING THE CAMERA but never fear, she figures it out after a moment and waves sheepishly. Exsilium, say hello to one half of your new magical girl duo. ]

Looks like there's been a bit of a problem, huh? Lucky for you guys, magical girl Sayaka is here to take care of everything! [ She holds her sword up with a grin, cape fluttering behind her. ] Just leave it to me! If anyone needs any help, I'll definitely be there straight away.

[A second later, another little magical girl face pops up. There's some fumbling around when she and Sayaka nudge shoulders and push together for room, and then she clears her throat and begins, nervously:]

If you say so...are all other magical girls this flashy?

[Mami-senpai had not mentioned it. She had also stressed the importance of keeping their magical girl personas a secret, but surely in this strange place, it wouldn't matter much, right? ...She hoped so.

Kyouko bows her head toward the camera politely, and speaks up a little louder.] Excuse me, everyone! I don't mean to be too forward, but...

[She straightens up a little, gets her game face on. She's holding a spear about twice her size, but it doesn't look like she's struggling to hold it.] We noticed there are a lot of kids around, and we want to help! So - please count on us! We'll help gather all of them up.

[A pause. She turns to Sayaka, and in a stage-whisper:] Did that sound cool enough?

You sounded fine! Geez, Kyouko, you worry too much.

[ ooc; tags will come from both in separate threads! edit: threadjacks are happening. feel free to action it up if you run into them anywhere in the hold, they will be all over. ]

Oh yeah? How old are you, huh?

[ She's only teasing, though, and brightens up after a laugh. ]

I guess it's okay if you help out. We're just trying to get all these kids someplace safe.

[Teasing or not, he'll answer.]

I'm ten. My sisters are nine and seven, though. I'm used to looking after them.

Where do you want to corral everyone?

Hey, I'm fourteen! Don't go saying you're not much younger than me.

[ HUGE DIFFERENCE >:( also she didn't think that far ahead, so have a momentary frown. ]

Wherever's big enough, I guess. We've gotta be able to keep an eye on them.

When I'm twenty, you'll be twenty-four. When I'm twenty-four, you'll be twenty-eight, and so on and so forth. Trust me, it may seem like a lot now, but it won't mean a thing later.

[He shrugs, apparently at ease with the whole thing. It's a truth he'd accepted a long time ago.]

Is it just going to be the three of us looking after them all? I'm not sure that will be enough. We should also look into appropriate locations to herd everyone. I'd recommend somewhere enclosed with a variety of different activities available. A playground or something similar would be ideal, but it's probably too much to hope that there's a daycare center around here.

[And if he sounds older than his ten years, it's not out of the ordinary for him. He's always been a precocious child.]

[ Jesus christ dude. She looks baffled for a good ten seconds, but pulls herself together and rubs the back of her head. ]

Well... I guess it depends on how many kids there are. I'm pretty fast, so I'll look for somewhere to take them. [ She can picture a building which seems almost ideal — one that resembles a training centre. It's odd, to remember a place she's never been. ] It shouldn't be too hard to find stuff for them to do, though. I can always use my magic to put on some kinda show.

[A magic show? He brightens, then immediately tries to pretend as though that isn't the coolest thing ever, a magic show from a magical girl, no, don't react, stay calm. If Nunnally is here, he has to find her now. Yeah, that's the only reason he's looking forward to it. Nunnally would love it. Yes.]

Let me know when you find somewhere suitable, then. Should I start rounding up everyone now or should I wait for your signal?

[ Oh god, responsibility. TIME TO MAKE MAMI PROUD. ]

It's probably best if you wait a bit. Once I find a place, you can come help set up. [ because dude you know your shit way more than she does. ]

[He nods.]

All right. I'll see you then.
