Shaky voice testing, taken from during episode 3 fight

[bustadecapinyoass]

Well, this is hardly fair, isn't it? I was just about to defeat the witch, and suddenly I'm here. Guess it can't really be helped.

So where do you plan on putting me? That is what you plan on doing with me, isn't it?

...

You have no idea?

[She closes her eyes and grins a little.]

Maybe you should wish to Kyubey to wish to know where to put me. Either that, or try and figure it out. Kaname-san still has to wish for a giant party cake.

[infinitime_loop]

[ ... oh. Well then. Literally nothing that Mami just said was okay, in any way whatsoever. Homura's lips tighten into a frown of disapproval. ]

Mami Tomoe. Stop trying to convince people to make contracts with Kyubey.

[bustadecapinyoass]

[Mami just sighs. She has no idea how you escaped those ribbons, but she's not going to bring it up.]

And why shouldn't I? I can only stop them from making the wrong wish.

[infinitime_loop]

[ Because Homura is from ~the future~! ... not that she's aware of it yet. She's not even entirely certain which (part of the) timeline Mami's from, though she has her suspicions. ]

Because they will end up chained to a short, miserable life fighting monsters. And using a wish to get an answer to a frivolous question- or a cake- would make them even more miserable.

[bustadecapinyoass]

Don't think of it as fighting monsters. Think of it as stopping monsters from hurting the innocent. Why would they be miserable from that?

[Not even going to mention that she WAS miserable before Madoka said she would be Mami's friend.]

Besides, Kaname-san repeatedly says she wanted to be a magical girl. I just simply gave her an ultimatum. Either she can wish for cake, or come up with a wish on her own. The wish could take even more time, since I haven't finished that witch off.

Don't worry, though. She'll make the wish soon. I was just about to finish off that doll with my finishing move.

[infinitime_loop]

That's only because neither you nor Madoka know what Kyubey's been hiding from you-

[ Homura trails off, her eyes widening in shock and horror as she realizes exactly when Mami's from. ]

Mami Tomoe, listen to me. Whenever you return, take Madoka and Sayaka Miki and make your way back toward the entrance, otherwise that doll- that witch- will kill you...!

[bustadecapinyoass]

[That warning only gets a smirk in return.]

You can wait your turn, can't you? I've already claimed that witch as mine. Besides, just one Tiro Finale and it'll be all gone.

Now go back to those ribbons and wait like a good little girl. We may celebrate with cake after.

[Yeah, she has no idea her head is about to be the main course.]

[infinitime_loop]

[ Homura refuses to rise to the bait and just... does her best to ignore the jabs, her frustration tempered by a sense of urgency. ]

Stop being so stubborn and listen, for once. Hasn't it occurred to you that this fight was too easy? Have you ever fought a witch that didn't fight back in some manner, no matter how weak it was?

Have a Rebellion Story Mami!

[shotgunshojo]

[ Mami freezes when she see the other girl. It is like looking into a mirror, right down to the magically curled pigtails. Her first instinct is to transform in a flurry of light and face this trick that the nightmares made.

But then ,with a shake, she remembers that this sort of thing is normal for this place.]

Hello! I'm sorry to barge in to your conversation. It can be a difficult to find a place around here , but not impossible.

Oh, goody! This might be fun

[bustadecapinyoass]

[And this Mami freezes and blinks. This is her first time, so this is really weird to her. Is... is this some sort of witch? Her hand goes to her soul gem, ready to transform if anything funny happens.]

...Yes. There's so many games to choose from, my mundane tells me. But I'm sure we'll find one suitable for us soon.

[contract_high]

You should know I don't work for charity, Mami-san.

[bustadecapinyoass]

[Mami shrugs.]

Well, my mundane doesn't have to wish for you. Maybe you just have some suggestions?

[She's fine with Kyubey not granting her mun's wishes.]

[snowcloak]

[Rar it's an Incubator! okay not really]

Mundanes have pretty lousy timing, don't they? I'm always getting interrupted when I'm doing something cool.

[Hint hint, mun.]

[bustadecapinyoass]

[Woah. Mami's never seen this thing before. She looks over it with curiosity. ...Another one of Kyubey's species...?]

You can say that again. The fight against the witch was nearly finished.

...You wouldn't hapen to know someone named Kyubey, would you?

[snowcloak]

Oh sure, we go way back...

[Pause.]

No, no, I'm messing with you. Never heard of them. [Pokemon don't get to watch much TV after all.] We don't have humans where I'm from, so...

[Aaaand he totally gets the wrong idea.]

[bustadecapinyoass]

[A smile graces Mami's lips. There's no reason to get angry over such a small mistake.]

He's an alien that can grant wishes and turn people into magical girls. I'm one of them.

[snowcloak]

Alien, huh? Nope, still doesn't ring any bells. All the aliens I know are Clefairy.

...

...anyway! Magical girl, huh? That's not some kinda Pokemon trainer, is it? [Because he's tired of people trying to catch him! Or talking about catching him.]

[bustadecapinyoass]

He's white with red eyes and looks sort of like you.

Nope. A magical girl can fight witches. All you have to do is give Kyubey a wish. Any wish at all. But if you choose to become a magical girl, make sure you're absolutely sure of what your wish is.

[foundmythirdeye]

It takes more than wishing to get things done.

[bustadecapinyoass]

True, but only a wish can make one a magical girl. I'm only offering my mundane a means to make a decision easier. Besides, my mundane will be able to fight witches as well. I think of it as a win-win.

[mask_of_suffering]

Oh Mami-san... If things work out we'll need more then a cake to celebrate.

[bustadecapinyoass]

Do you have a wish in mind, Kaname-san?

[mask_of_suffering]

If I really had to choose, I think that I would wish for my friends and family to be safe and happy forever.

[bustadecapinyoass]

[And that's a low blow to Mami. Though... the blow is lessened somewhat in that Madoka truly became friends with Mami moments before when she was pulled. So what does she do?

She smiles cheerfully.]

That seems to be a very noble wish!

[mask_of_suffering]

Oh no, I think it's normal to want the people around you to be happy!

[Madoka smiled back.]

[bustadecapinyoass]

[Mami's smile grows warm.]

And I am. You said I would never be alone again; that you would always be by my side! With you, I'm never going to be afraid again.
