—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. ]

I-if you're an adventurer, you've gotta have class levels! That's just how the world works!

[fortissimos]

[ DISGRUNTLED SIGH now she sort-of gets it. ]

This isn't a videogame. We get stronger, but we don't have anything like that.

[have_hat_will_travel]

... What are videogames?

[fortissimos]

... Seriously? How don't you know something like that?

[ the most polite ]

[have_hat_will_travel]

This might be one of those things where it's because I'm from a different world? I remember hearing something like that.

But that still doesn't explain how you don't know your character classes! That's basic physics for an adventurer!

[fortissimos]

Yeah, maybe...

[ Wow, that's weird to think about. She's only heard the 'different worlds' thing in passing so far. ]

Nobody has character classes in real life, you know. Maybe it's like that where you're from, but things are different for us.

[have_hat_will_travel]

... But didn't you just say you were a Magical Girl? That... Sounds kinda like a class to me.

Maybe one of those weirdo homebrew supplements?

(OOC: There is, in fact, a Magical Girl homebrew supplement for D&D 3.5. But that's not the point. XD)

[fortissimos]

[ The long this goes on, the more frustrated Sayaka gets. She's never been the most patient of people, and even though she tries, people acting weirdly is a big annoyance for her. ]

I already said things were different for us! [ calm down ] Nothing you're saying makes any sense.

[have_hat_will_travel]

T-think how I feel!

This idea of reality is completely weirdo-bonkers to me!

[fortissimos]

That's how I feel about the stuff you're saying!

[have_hat_will_travel]

But... But...

*Aaaaand Riana is at a loss for words now.*

[fortissimos]

[ sssssigh ]

Look, I'm not trying to sound mean, but you can't just doubt people like that. We're magical girls, not any of that other stuff.

[have_hat_will_travel]

But I haven't heard of Magical Girls...

[fortissimos]

... Well, that's okay. You can just use us as your examples.

[have_hat_will_travel]

... Uhh....
