You get the point. One of the pillars of Magical Girls everywhere is their love for each other, and it’s the same in every timeline- because Magical Girls have the very best of humanity. It’s the one invisible barrier that stops them from butchering each other on sight and then blaming it on necessity. It’s what makes their short lives enjoyable, while also leaving them willing to sacrifice themselves for each other.
Lifa: We were sent to maim and feed off each other… because Raya thought that Magical Girls would not accept that we also fuck up and get scared and hurt people sometimes. Because she thought that we wouldn't come together to solve the problem- even though so many, like me now, were already willingly giving up on Grief Seeds.
Lucinda looks at the skeletons of the Magical Girls that perished in the War of Broken Candles. They all do such specific things, like playing the piano or dancing; maybe Lifa found peace in them finally doing what they wanted for as long as they wanted.
Lifa: In hindsight, I should have seen it coming. She couldn't even accept that we could love each other.
Patchwing: It solved the problem. CAW.
Lifa giggles in silence.
Lifa: It did. It certainly, certainly did...
ರೃ Lucinda: Then say it. Let everyone know about these events.
Lifa looks at Lucinda as if the blonde was ten years younger.
Lifa: I won’t; for the same reason A-chan didn’t tell you. If those who lived through the War of Broken Candles didn't also keep this a secret then their worlds, like mine, would have burned for nothing. All we have left now is the faith in Magical Girls that Raya sacrificed us to protect.
