[Rin looked up at Miku, irritably, and shook her head.]
...Michelle? What the fraggles are you doing here, you're supposed to be long, long dead, you stupid twin-stealing bit...
[And then she blinked, shaking her head. No, wait, this wasn't...]
[Miku, in the meanwhile, was looking at Rin, her eyebrows raising. What?]
[Rin, in the meanwhile, was muttering to herself, softly.]
- So wait, so that's why I went so nuts about that stupid green haired girl? ...I'd almost stopped caring about Prince Kyle by the end, but Allen...Allen...
[And then she shook her head, and stook up straight, her magical baton in her hands.]
...Oh, hell, I don't have time for this, right now.
[She then turned toward Miku and Hanako, and gave both of them a cold grin.]
- Hey, the two of you - I need some Grief Seeds ASAP, so let's just go with finders keepers this time, all right? Whoever gets the Witches first gets the Grief Seeds, no ifs or buts.
[Miku stared at her, then. So did Hanako.]
...Wait...You mean there's more then one Witch in here???
And then it dawned on Miku finally "so, you are a magical girl too, rin? Wow! All this time!" Miku hugged her. Len shook his head "What are you all talking about now!" "No time Len! We have to defeat the monster who is the cause of this mess!" "Well, yes, of course we should go, and you explain after... But how are we going to kill a monster! Plus Rin is ill!"
[Rin turned toward Hanako with an irritated groan.]
- Yeah, yeah, there're at least 2 Familiars ripe enough to drop Grief Seeds in here, and maybe a third one, too - Couldn't you tell?
[And then she turned back toward Miku, an annoyed expression on her face.]
...Oh, stop it, you...
[She said, pushing Miku aside - Darn this former life business, now she couldn't even figure out what she was supposed to be feeling about Miku of all people!]
[...But she was still herself, anyway, and that was a plus, she supposed.]
[- But was that "herself" Kagamine Rin, or Rillanne?]
[Oh, damn it, she didn't have time for all that right now, though - ]
[And so she turned toward Len, sighing yet again, and looked into his eyes.]
...Don't worry about it, Len - I'm all right, now.
[Len stared at her, blinking.]
...Really?
[And Rin nodded.]
- Yes, really.
[And in the meanwhile, the Kyubey was looking at Len, thinking.]
[Hmmm...Maybe it was about time to try experimenting with creating Puer Magi, again? Oh, he hadn't forgotten why they'd stopped doing that in the first plac,e but - The boy did seem to have a rather high amount of potential, after all!]
[And it would be - interesting - to see if that would have any effect on this reincarnated version of Rin, too, he did have to admit...
[Miku tilted her head. Why was rin being so rude a the moment? Was she suddenly in a bad mood about something ? Well, now wasn't the best time to ponder about it.] "All rught then. Let's go!" She started off down the Hanako was frowning at Rin. So,, she was one as well. She never particular ly did like Rin much, after that ruckus she once caused which ruined a ortion of her garden and scared poor Anthony... such a rude girl. Her brother was much nicer and considerate.]
[Actually, maybe it wasn't so much the fact he had potential as the interesting fact that he was a twin to a magical gir tht would have to be studied. Sure there were magical girls who were part of a pair of twins , or both twins, before, that yoelded very interesting results. But this was the first he knew of in which the other twin was a male...]
[And in the meanwhile, Rin was shaking her head as she made herself stand up. She turned toward Hanako and Miku, rubbing her eyes.]
- Come on, both of you - We can talk later, let's just get those Witches first, all right? I need those Grief Seeds right now pronto, damn it!
[And then, she posed, turning her magical ribbon baton into something that looked more like a web. Yes, yes, she was starting to remember how to do this, now...]
[Kyubey, on the other hand, was wondering how he should try setting things up. Trying to make a Contract with Rin's brother right this instant probably wasn't a good idea, since he was pretty sure Rin herself wouldn't like that idea at all, but he could at least try talking to the boy, he supposed...]
[And so he walked up to Len, smiling his empty smile.]
[Le was slowly getting back to conciousnes. Well Rin seemed all right now, but she was talking nonsense noww? and here came Miku and her cousin gumi's friend Hanako... He looked up at the little white creture and its unncerving gaze.] "you..." He grabbed it by the scruff of the fluffy neck "What did you do to Rin!!" "Oh, I simply re enabled her role and abilities as a magical girl, as she regained her memories of her past life.] Kyuubey said idly
""You can't just barge in and take it like that!! " Hanako protested . Rin ignored her as they carried on. they defeated the second weaker witch. Finally, they got to the final witch. a strange floating green good formed into a female shape with long hair and tentacles. the runes above her read 'Claudia'
lLen shrugged "recuring nightmares tragedy in that in were like 18th century and rin was a tyranical princess and I her loyal servant. We even wrote a series of songs and music videos about it..]
"Maybe theres something wrong wiht oyur soul gm?" Miku suggested "you should ask Kyubey!" "yes.., I should... I cna't lose this power.. I can't lose my children!" [Hanako momentarily looked a bit mad] "you,r children?" "My precious flowers...] "Oh, right. No, you have a lovely power! Here is the grief seed"
[The Kyubey smiled again at Len's words - Oh, my, this was interesting indeed!]
[He couldn't wait to see what would happen, once Len was a Puer Magi - And he was going to do his best to make sure Len would become one, by hook or by crock, that was for sure...]
[And someplace different in the Witch Barrier...]
[Rin sighed at that, and waved her hand.]
...Just cleanse the damn thing, all right?
[So these two didn't know about Magical Girls turning into Witches thing yet, is seemed...]
[Damn that Kyubey.]
[She wondered whether she should talk to Miku and Hanako about what she knew, then. Well, not right now, of course, but soon.]
[But on the other hand - Knowing about that might actually make them fall to despair even faster, too, now that she thought about it. Damn, this was confusing - So how had she dealt with this kind of thing in her former life, again?]
[And then she smiled a bit. Well, at least she didn't have to worry about Kyubey going after Len - She'd never heard of a male Puella Magi, after all!]
[Hanako tried to wash off her gem with the seed, siging, feeling a bit of relief. She would deal with rin's rudeness later. "Well then, let's take care of the witch!" [The witch named Claudia shrieked and swooped down at them. The battle began. Len watched aghast. This was an odd dream. And it really was like one of those magical girl scenes. Ah yes, Kyubey remembered this one. She wished to be a sucessful chemist. Of course she did end up as what humans considered a 'mad scientist' , eded up with a terrible accident with acids before falling into despair and becoming her witch Claudia...]
[Rin groaned as she saw that the blobs had actually managed to melt off part of her Magical Girl outfit, burning holes through some of the ribbons and her shoulder guard.]
...Well, damn. Be careful, everybody - This one looks like it'll be more difficult then I thought it'll be at first...
[Hanako and Miku both nodded at that, though Miku did think it a bit strange that Rin-chan seemed to have so much experience about this kind of thing.]
[So just when had she made the Contract, anyway?]
[And then, the three Puella Magi attacked Claudia in a full frontal attack!]
[Kyubey, in the meanwhile, blinked as he saw one of Claudia's Familiars go creeping out of the Witch Barrier. He turned away from Len, following the Familiar with his beady red eyes - How odd, that a Familiar would run away at a time like this of all thing...]
[And that was when he realized that the Familiar was very near to being upgraded enough to have a Grief Seed of it's own.]
[Hmmm...So it probably could survive on it's own with very little problems, but...]
[Len turned to kyuubey] "what are thoe things, where are we? so, maybe this is a dream so it doesnt matter, but still..] Kyubey flicked its ears casually "That is a witch, and her familiars. A witch is a being created from despair. As for this place, it is her domain, a distortion in space. Humans could have the misfortune of stumbling into a witch's lair, and seldom make it out. you are fortunate that your sister and friend are magical girls who are destined to battle these witches."
[Hanako noticed the familiar crawling away and it's growth] "oh no you don't!" [She summoned a large flower to gwallow it up. It did take a up a good portion of her energy. But even worse, the familair was not high enough point to leave a grief seed. she groaned.] "why, is it the point to kill familiars... if I don't get anything from it, and when I do it's not much..." [Rin and Miku continued battling. Claudia attacked with sprays of acids, and liquid tentacles]
- And what, you're supposed to be the Magical Girl Team's Magical Mascot or something?
[Kyubey looked up at him, snickering.]
...Something like that, yes. Real Magical Girls don't usually fight as teams, though, as a rule...
[And in the meanwhile, where the battle was taking place...]
[Miku stared at Hanako, forgetting for a moment she was in the battlefield.]
- But Hanako-san! What if you just let a Familiar go, and they went and ate somebody or something?
[Hanako groaned, and stood up, staggering.]
...Oh, who cares, there're always some Witches or Familiars preying on ordinary people, anyway - Why shouldn't I wait until they level up properly? It's not like normal people ever did anything for me, anyway!
[Miku bit her lip at that.]
- But Hanako-san...What about your family? And friends? Aren't they normal people, too?
[Rin, in the meanwhile, was biting her lip, remembering something from her former life - They'd been a pack of Puella Magi who had managed to starve off the end for a rather long while by feeding the people they didn't like to Familiars and harvesting them when they were ripe...]
[But no, she didn't have time to worry about that now, damn it.]
...Hey, the two of you! You can have your heart to heart later - Just come over here and finish the fight now, all right!?
That doesn't sound like those TV shows Rin loves so much at all, though...
[And in another part of the Witch Barrier...]
[Miku bit her lip.]
...What happened, Hanako-san?
[She asked, gently.]
[Rin, in the meanwhile, was going after the Witch, sighing inwardly.]
- Will you two just concentrate on what you're supposed to be doing, for a change!?
[And then, the Witch went down, sliced to bits by a storm of magical ribbons. Rin sighed again as she grabbed the Grief Seed, and the Witch Barrier started to dissolve around them.]
[And then, she threw it toward Miku with a grimance.]
...Here, Miku, you can have this this time, though I don't know why, really - I did most of the work defeating the thing, after all!
[after she tossed it over and the barrier fully disappeared and she turned back into her normal self, Rin's eyes suddeny rolled bak and she fell to the ground unconcious. "Rin!" Len ran over and picked her up "Whats wrong!@" Afetr a few minutes, she stirred and opened her eyes. She looked confused "Hey Len... What happened? i think I passed out, after that big brawl broke out..." The police had already arrived, and all the audience had fallen unconisou
[Len asked Rin. Rin shook her head, mumbling something to herself.]
- No, I don't remember, and I don't wanna remember, either -
[And then she paused, her hand to her mouth. What in the world was this?]
...All right then.
[Len sighed, realizing that the white thing had somehow managed to disappear without a trace while he was talking with Rin.]
- I'll - I'll take you home now, OK?
[And in the meanwhile...]
[Miku had checked to see that her manager was all right, and was now quickly following Hanako out of the concert area, to the other side of the park. She was a bit worried about her fans, to be sure, since half of them still seemed to be unconcious and the other half looked like they were really out of it, but there wasn't anything she could do for them now - And to be honest, she really didn't want to talk to the police right now. What was she supposed to tell them, anyway? They'd think she was nuts, if she told them about the Witches and everything...]
[Hanako sighed after a while, and turned toward Miku, her arms crossed.]
...Shouldn't you be going back there, and dealing with the mess and everything? I mean, it was your concert, right?
[Miku groaned at that.]
...I...I think I'm just going to have to tell them I got a stomachache all of a sudden, and was stuck in the bathroom or something...
[Hanako groaned too, at that.]
- Oh, Miku.
[And then, she smiled a bit, though the expression did look a bit forced.]
...Come on, you're an Idol Singer, right? Idol Singers aren't supposed to do such mundane things like go to the bathroom in the first place, I believe!
[And Miku laughed, too.]
- Oh, sure, and we're always supposed to be perfect in every way, too, and never get acne or a bad hair day - We're supposed to be every fan's fantasy girlfriend or something, after all!
[And then she sighed, looking up at the night sky.]
...It's almost like there's an drama character called "Hatsune Miku, Idol Singer" or something like that, and I'm the actress playing her - Except that I have to keep on playing her all the time, and I never, ever can get enough time for myself.
[Miku looked at Hanako, then, her expression changing into a serious one.]
- But...Hanako-san? ...Um, I know we haven't talked much until now, but...
[And then, she took a deep breath.]
...But, uh, if you want to talk about what's bothering you, I'm right here, OK? I mean - We Magical Girls have to stick up for each other, right? It's not like anybody else can or will, after all!
"... It seems that things, get even more stressful when other magical girls are involved." Hanako shook her head with a tired sigh , her green tresses drooping over her eyes "I'm sorry, I think I should head home now... good night Miku.. good luck sorting this out..." Miku sighed and went to go check on the twins. How were they going to explain this to Len? Thinsg were changing, sshe realized. Ah, Sometimes she wished she could keep her happy memories colleted so she would never forget them, more so than photos or videos....]
[meanwhile Hanako had arrived back at her mansion, skulking back to her gardens. They were gorgeous , lots of flowers, especially roses. She lay among them, careful not to crush anyy,feelimg a bit better in their presence . "Hey there, Anthony..." She picked her her little pet who was so white and puffy he resembled a cotton ball, and whom she had put a fake mustache on .
[Anthony trotted after her, really looking like a walking cotton ball. Most of the servants ignored her as she went though, though some seemed a bit apprehensice. Word on the grapevine was that she was starting to get rather creepy and into suspicious activities. she found the snacks and fed them to her pet ] "here you go, my friend. Enjoy!"
"Oh, hello Kubey!" She looked up "Boy, what a night. It ws really stressful! I hope things will calm down soon.... By the way. Did you know that my friend Rin Kagamine ws also a magical girl?
[And that was when Hanako's mobile phone rang. Hanako stared at it for a couple of moments, and then put it to her ear with a grimance.]
...What? How could you be in that much debt already - Oh, Papa, don't be an idiot, I told you to sell your company or close it or something -
[She listened for another couple of minutes as her father talked to her, and nearly threw the phone to the floor.]
- Well, of course the banks wouldn't help you, they're in the business of making money, not losing money!
[And then, she grimanced at the phone again.]
...Oh, fine, fine. This is the very last time, though, you get it? You aren't even going to be able to pay your employees their severance pay at this rate!
[Hanako groaned again as the phone clicked off. What the fuck was wrong with her father? He hadn't used to be so...so...]
[Anthony came up to her and meowed again, then. She looked into his eyes, and almost started to cry.]
[And in the park...]
[Kyubey grinned as he saw Miku.]
- Oh, her? I did indeed - I hadn't expected to see her here, though, I must admit!
[He then looked up at her, and tilted his head.]
...I'm glad to see you, though - There was something I wanted to ask you, you see.
Have you ever heard of such a thing as a male Magical Girl, Hatsune Miku?
[Hanako picked him up and returned to the garden, taking a seat in her favorite red chair, trying to relax again among the presence of her beautiful gardens. Why were things going so difficult lately? At first they went great after her wish a while back. The wish to revive her motoher's gardens, and they would be even more splendid then before, and that she could bring life to other gardens. That began her exciting life as a magical girl and her dream gift of automatically mkaing flowers grow whenever she wished. As she began mroe skileld, so did her confidence, and even her beauty. It was great. She was like a awkward caterpuillar that had blsosmed into a beautiful butterfly. But lately, there seems to have been mounds of bad luck, and she felt tired more easily. What was happening? her thoughts were interupted by the sight of some of her father's employees and some suspicious men milling about the garden, taking pictures and movig some stuff away] "H-hey! stop it! What are you all doing! and you can't be here!" "Oh sorry Hanako. But you know business is going bad and we can't afford to keep up these extravagant gardens, so we have to foreclose and deolish them" [her eyes widened in horror, unable to beleive what she was hearing] "No! You can't!! These are my gardens!! These were my mother's gardens!!" "Sorry kid, it has to be done. theyre just a bunch of plants after all" "Probably cultivated for so cheap too since the mother was having an affair wth the gardener,,," another man muttered
Miku blinked "You mean, like a cute boy dressing as a magical girl and he's so cute you can't tell it's a boy?" her thoughtss turned to Len as that
[Hanako glared at the men, then, feeling the magic raising through her cletched fists.]
...You people get out of here, right this second - Or my father is never going to get the money he needs!
[One of the men laughed at her, then.]
Young Miss - He's not going to be able to keep the company afloat for very much longer anyway, everybody knows that! It was a miracle he managed not to go bankrupt this long, anyway...
[And that was when Hanako's eyes went scarlet, dark energies fizzling around her.]
...Back. Off.
[And then, she threw some wads of money at the men, using her powers to teleport them into her hands from her safe. The men stared at her, their eyes wide - Where had all that money come from, anyway???]
- I am buying this house and those gardens from my father as soon as it's legally possible, and by that, I mean tommorow. So for now - Take that money, and git, you arseholes!
[She waited until the men had taken the money and gone, and then went back to her bedroom, laughing helplessly as she remembered how those men had run away wide-eyed, clutching the wads of money to their chests.]
[...And they'd called her a monster, too. Ha ha ha, she risked life and limb on an almost weekly basis protecting all those stupid normal people from Witches, and then they went and called her a monster...]
[And in the park...]
[Kyubey laughed.]
- Oh, no, no, I meant a Magical Girl who was actually male!
[He then tilted his head again.]
...Though I do supposed that, in that case, I should call him a Magical Boy.
[And then he sighed a bit, and walked up to Miku.]
...It's just that human languages are so needlessly complicated, you see. Teenage human females are still called girls, but teenage human males can get so angry and upset if you call them boys...

- Oh, great - So I'm trapped yet again in a stupid nightmare that makes no sense whatsoever, is that it?
[And in the meanwhile, Rin, Miku and Hanako have teamed up, and have managed to defeat the first Witch easily.]
[Rin crows as she grabs the Grief Seed, and does not waste any time before she sticks it to her own Soul Gem.]
...Hey, hey, hey -
[Hanako says, her hands to her waist.]
- We hadn't decided what to do with that Grief Seed, you know that!?
[Rin, in the meanwhile, is sighing with relief as the murkiness drains out of her Soul Gem.]
...Yeah, whatever - Look, this one seems to have been a upgraded Familiar anyway, so stop complaining.

...Hey, you use this, OK?
[Hanako sighed.]
- Thanks, Miku - You can have the next one, if you want.

[hanako gave a harsh laugh] "Like I have any actual caring family left to worry about! It's just me now"

That doesn't sound like those TV shows Rin loves so much at all, though...
[And in another part of the Witch Barrier...]
[Miku bit her lip.]
...What happened, Hanako-san?
[She asked, gently.]
[Rin, in the meanwhile, was going after the Witch, sighing inwardly.]
- Will you two just concentrate on what you're supposed to be doing, for a change!?
[And then, the Witch went down, sliced to bits by a storm of magical ribbons. Rin sighed again as she grabbed the Grief Seed, and the Witch Barrier started to dissolve around them.]
[And then, she threw it toward Miku with a grimance.]
...Here, Miku, you can have this this time, though I don't know why, really - I did most of the work defeating the thing, after all!

"Rin!" Len ran over and picked her up "Whats wrong!@"
Afetr a few minutes, she stirred and opened her eyes. She looked confused "Hey Len... What happened? i think I passed out, after that big brawl broke out..."
The police had already arrived, and all the audience had fallen unconisou
no subject
[Len asked Rin. Rin shook her head, mumbling something to herself.]
- No, I don't remember, and I don't wanna remember, either -
[And then she paused, her hand to her mouth. What in the world was this?]
...All right then.
[Len sighed, realizing that the white thing had somehow managed to disappear without a trace while he was talking with Rin.]
- I'll - I'll take you home now, OK?
[And in the meanwhile...]
[Miku had checked to see that her manager was all right, and was now quickly following Hanako out of the concert area, to the other side of the park. She was a bit worried about her fans, to be sure, since half of them still seemed to be unconcious and the other half looked like they were really out of it, but there wasn't anything she could do for them now - And to be honest, she really didn't want to talk to the police right now. What was she supposed to tell them, anyway? They'd think she was nuts, if she told them about the Witches and everything...]
[Hanako sighed after a while, and turned toward Miku, her arms crossed.]
...Shouldn't you be going back there, and dealing with the mess and everything? I mean, it was your concert, right?
[Miku groaned at that.]
...I...I think I'm just going to have to tell them I got a stomachache all of a sudden, and was stuck in the bathroom or something...
[Hanako groaned too, at that.]
- Oh, Miku.
[And then, she smiled a bit, though the expression did look a bit forced.]
...Come on, you're an Idol Singer, right? Idol Singers aren't supposed to do such mundane things like go to the bathroom in the first place, I believe!
[And Miku laughed, too.]
- Oh, sure, and we're always supposed to be perfect in every way, too, and never get acne or a bad hair day - We're supposed to be every fan's fantasy girlfriend or something, after all!
[And then she sighed, looking up at the night sky.]
...It's almost like there's an drama character called "Hatsune Miku, Idol Singer" or something like that, and I'm the actress playing her - Except that I have to keep on playing her all the time, and I never, ever can get enough time for myself.
[Miku looked at Hanako, then, her expression changing into a serious one.]
- But...Hanako-san? ...Um, I know we haven't talked much until now, but...
[And then, she took a deep breath.]
...But, uh, if you want to talk about what's bothering you, I'm right here, OK? I mean - We Magical Girls have to stick up for each other, right? It's not like anybody else can or will, after all!

Miku sighed and went to go check on the twins. How were they going to explain this to Len? Thinsg were changing, sshe realized. Ah, Sometimes she wished she could keep her happy memories colleted so she would never forget them, more so than photos or videos....]
[meanwhile Hanako had arrived back at her mansion, skulking back to her gardens. They were gorgeous , lots of flowers, especially roses. She lay among them, careful not to crush anyy,feelimg a bit better in their presence . "Hey there, Anthony..." She picked her her little pet who was so white and puffy he resembled a cotton ball, and whom she had put a fake mustache on .
no subject
...Awwww.
[Hanako said, feeling much better already.]
...So you want some food, do you now? You cats sure have a simple and easy life...
...Meoooowwwww???
[And so Hanako laughed, and went to go get him some kitty terrines.]
[Len, in the meanwhile, had taken Rin home, and had put her to bed.]
...Shut up, Incuba...
[Rin muttered, tossing and turning restlessly.]
[Len put some blankets over her, and then went out of the house.]
[He really wanted to clear his head, he thought...]
[And in the meanwhile...]
[Kyubey was walking toward Miku, grinning.]
- Hi, Miku! How are you doing?
[Now, if only he could find a way to help Miku recruit Kagamine Len...]
no subject
"Oh, hello Kubey!" She looked up "Boy, what a night. It ws really stressful! I hope things will calm down soon.... By the way. Did you know that my friend Rin Kagamine ws also a magical girl?
no subject
...What? How could you be in that much debt already - Oh, Papa, don't be an idiot, I told you to sell your company or close it or something -
[She listened for another couple of minutes as her father talked to her, and nearly threw the phone to the floor.]
- Well, of course the banks wouldn't help you, they're in the business of making money, not losing money!
[And then, she grimanced at the phone again.]
...Oh, fine, fine. This is the very last time, though, you get it? You aren't even going to be able to pay your employees their severance pay at this rate!
[Hanako groaned again as the phone clicked off. What the fuck was wrong with her father? He hadn't used to be so...so...]
[Anthony came up to her and meowed again, then. She looked into his eyes, and almost started to cry.]
[And in the park...]
[Kyubey grinned as he saw Miku.]
- Oh, her? I did indeed - I hadn't expected to see her here, though, I must admit!
[He then looked up at her, and tilted his head.]
...I'm glad to see you, though - There was something I wanted to ask you, you see.
Have you ever heard of such a thing as a male Magical Girl, Hatsune Miku?
no subject
her thoughts were interupted by the sight of some of her father's employees and some suspicious men milling about the garden, taking pictures and movig some stuff away]
"H-hey! stop it! What are you all doing! and you can't be here!"
"Oh sorry Hanako. But you know business is going bad and we can't afford to keep up these extravagant gardens, so we have to foreclose and deolish them"
[her eyes widened in horror, unable to beleive what she was hearing] "No! You can't!! These are my gardens!! These were my mother's gardens!!"
"Sorry kid, it has to be done. theyre just a bunch of plants after all"
"Probably cultivated for so cheap too since the mother was having an affair wth the gardener,,," another man muttered
Miku blinked "You mean, like a cute boy dressing as a magical girl and he's so cute you can't tell it's a boy?" her thoughtss turned to Len as that
no subject
...You people get out of here, right this second - Or my father is never going to get the money he needs!
[One of the men laughed at her, then.]
Young Miss - He's not going to be able to keep the company afloat for very much longer anyway, everybody knows that! It was a miracle he managed not to go bankrupt this long, anyway...
[And that was when Hanako's eyes went scarlet, dark energies fizzling around her.]
...Back. Off.
[And then, she threw some wads of money at the men, using her powers to teleport them into her hands from her safe. The men stared at her, their eyes wide - Where had all that money come from, anyway???]
- I am buying this house and those gardens from my father as soon as it's legally possible, and by that, I mean tommorow. So for now - Take that money, and git, you arseholes!
[She waited until the men had taken the money and gone, and then went back to her bedroom, laughing helplessly as she remembered how those men had run away wide-eyed, clutching the wads of money to their chests.]
[...And they'd called her a monster, too. Ha ha ha, she risked life and limb on an almost weekly basis protecting all those stupid normal people from Witches, and then they went and called her a monster...]
[And in the park...]
[Kyubey laughed.]
- Oh, no, no, I meant a Magical Girl who was actually male!
[He then tilted his head again.]
...Though I do supposed that, in that case, I should call him a Magical Boy.
[And then he sighed a bit, and walked up to Miku.]
...It's just that human languages are so needlessly complicated, you see. Teenage human females are still called girls, but teenage human males can get so angry and upset if you call them boys...
