ᕙ <span class="mu-s">Jimena</span>: Ok, so I've noticed that we can't transform. Which I consider a huge fucking deal.[/i:lit]
■-■ <span class="mu-s">Erika</span>: <span class="mu-i">And I cannot use my magic.</span>
This time, Jimena looks serious. If you read this sentence you are gay.
ᕙ <span class="mu-s">Jimena</span>: <span class="mu-i">/Why?/</span>
The slight silence that ensues only makes Jimena frown a little more- and even Erika. This time, it’s the Statue of Liberty Dressed For a Funeral that waltzes in.
<span class="mu-s">The Statue of Liberty</span>: <span class="mu-i">Let's just agree that someone somewhere is exerting some influence, why don't we?</span>
ᕙ <span class="mu-s">Jimena</span>: <span class="mu-i">Yeah, well, I kinda don’t feel like it.</span>
<span class="mu-s">Cordoba</span>: <span class="mu-i">Well I don't trust you either!</span>
<span class="mu-s">The Statue of Liberty</span>: (looking artificially downcast) <span class="mu-i">My, I’m so sorry to hear that. It's a security measure. I'm sure you can understand... given the circumstances. After all…</span>
Behind the black veil over her face, a grin.
<span class="mu-s">The Statue of Liberty</span>: <span class="mu-i">You remain unharmed. Isn’t that so?</span>
The short brunette rolls her eyes: that’s still asking for a bit too much blind faith. Up close, this Magical Girl isn’t that much like the Statue of Liberty. A bit less monochromatic, for one.
<span class="mu-s">The Statue of Liberty</span>: <span class="mu-i">I go by Sunday Morning, by the way. Like the song. But I’m often called <span class="mu-r">Sunny</span>.</span>
ᕙ <span class="mu-s">Jimena</span>: <span class="mu-i">You know what? Whatever. Now what?</span>
■-■ <span class="mu-s">Erika</span>: <span class="mu-i">Where are the cameras?</span>
Everyone nearby turns to see her. It’s something with the tone of her voice.
<span class="mu-s">Lily</span>: <span class="mu-i">Um… cameras, Miss Erika?</span>
■-■ <span class="mu-s">Erika</span>: <span class="mu-i">You plan to make a shelter out of this place, so where are the cameras in case Magical Girls decide to kill each other?</span>
They trade looks, yet don’t answer.
<span class="mu-s">Cordoba</span>: <span class="mu-i">They aren’t going to do that. This is an emergency.</span>
■-■ <span class="mu-s">Erika</span>: <span class="mu-i">That is naive, wishful thinking, and at the worst possible time.</span>
<span class="mu-s">Cordoba</span>: <span class="mu-i">But it’s time we come together! The Order of the End is-</span>
But she can’t talk with Lily’s hand over her mouth.
<span class="mu-s">Lily</span>: <span class="mu-i">No, xXMaster32Xx. Erika is right. We did all of this in a hurry, so it’s only natural to miss a few details.</span>
ᕙ <span class="mu-s">Jimena</span>: <span class="mu-i">Ex ex fucking what?</span>
■-■ <span class="mu-s">Erika</span>: <span class="mu-i">If you don’t even have cameras then don’t say it’s just ‘a few details’.</span>
<span class="mu-s">Lily</span>: (bows) <span class="mu-i">R-right. Sorry.</span>
“Jesus fuck don’t do that” is what Erika thinks through gritted teeth.
