[Madoka cautiously walked toward the collapsed Magical Girl, then, Lizard Homura in her arms.]
...Miss? Are you OK?
[And then, she sighed and rubbed at her eyes. It was pretty obvious the girl wasn't OK, after all. She took a wipe out of her bag, and tried to rub at the girl's forehead.]
- Nooo...Leave me alone...I don't wanna be a Witch...
[The girl whined, restlessly, while the rest of her pets milled around her, looking worried indeed. Madoka looked at them, and patted the girl's forehead.]
[The girl's body, in the meanwhile, was getting plumper and plumper. Madoka groaned as the bottons of her jacket popped off, and took off her own overcoat to cover her.]
[Mami-Candeloro and Kyoko-Ophelia, in the meanwhile, had followed them to where Circe was collapsed. Mami-Candeloro sighed as she saw the state the girl's Soul Gem was in, and took out her Music Box Thing.]
< ...It looks like we shall have to try out our little experiment sooner rather then later, correct? >
[And that when there was a cough.]
...I wouldn't try that if I was you, Mami - Not when that girl is so close to the edge.
[Mami-Candeloro and Kyoko-Ophelia both blinked at that. Mami-Candeloro smiled after a moment, and waved her hand at the fuzzy critter with amber eyes, who was now looking up at both of them.]
< And why is that, Eight? >
[Eight tilted his head at her, curiously. Mami-Candeloro sighed, then, and tried to talk in Japanese again.]
...Why?
[Eight sighed at that, and waved a paw around.]
...Well, you see - An utterly amazing amount of energy is created when a Puella Magi goes Witch, though not even we Incubators are sure where it actually comes from, you see...
[And then, he pointed his paw at the Music Box Thing.]
- That thing is supposed to be durable, to be sure, but do you really want to risk wrecking it? And just in case, no, I don't have any spares of it around which I could give you to you in a pinch, I really don't.
