[b:lit]D[/b:lit]umb wishes are the norm among Magical Girls. So common that the follow-up to the question, like tomato to salad, is always 'how did it backfire?'.
Not all do. Even though Kyubey has a knack for picking up girls in distress, clearly in no position of making any kind of rational judgment, a lucky few actually make a blessing out of that limitless power.
Not Rita. Not her.
Through the year, she had managed to constantly pair up with other Magical Girls to hunt Witches or to defend their territory. It's the farthest factionless agents are willing to go when it comes to cooperation- but even they know there's strength in numbers. And those girls would often ask Rita about her wish, and she would tell them, and some would laugh; why not ask for ten thousand million dollars instead? Why in the unholy name of fuck did you settle for a water park? And Rita would laugh with them, and let them think that she didn't.
Yet she did think; she did so carefully. Born into extreme poverty, like the bigger half of the country, Rita had to learn to make do and to find fun in the little things. No money for a chess set? That rock is a king, this one a bishop. Footballs are too expensive? Let's kick a tennis ball. A ticket to the water park costs your soul? Let's wait for the rain and find the steepest street. And when mom and dad wipe out some pizza, Rita knows they've been saving two weeks just to buy the dough. When it tastes like shit, she's grateful. Sweets for dessert? Dumpster diving time.
With what little life gave her, Rita had learned to be happy.
And when she had the chance came, Rita was afraid to lose all of that.
