...You can never resist a chance to gloat, can you, Incubator?

[Kyubey shrugged at her, snickering.]

- Gloat? I have no idea what that means - Or I used to have no idea anyway, ha ha ha -

[And that was when Mami stood up, slowly, her eyes hooded.]

- Kyubey? Is it true? That is fate of Magical Girls is to turn into Witches?

[And then, she turned toward Nagisa.]

...That was what you were trying to tell me, wasn't it, Nagisa-chan?

[Nagisa looked at Mami, then, and sighed a bit, as Pyotr came over and sat on her lap, chittering.]

- Yeah, Mami-Nee. That was what I was trying to tell you, because if I hadn't...

[And then, she nodded toward Kyubey, giving him a pointed look.]
