[ This video feed clicks on during the night, the sounds of the bustling city heard as ambiance in the background. She's up high seemingly, possibly on a roof judging from the angle of the buildings behind her. One hand is clearly holding the phone, shaky camera syndrome being played up to the max and the other is holding onto a half-bitten into candy bar.

Why yes, she's in the middle of eating, cheeks all puffed up with probably a previous candy bar. She's even going to go beyond that by speaking with her mouth ful. ]

Fe fone if fiffy. [ What? A loud gulp as she swallows most of it. ] Hey, so I don't know how these stupid things work, but I never got Sayaka's phone number in the first place, so calling her is kinda pointless. This seems to be something kinda global though, so listen up. I'm looking for you, Sayaka, and I'm not gonna stop until I find you. We're suppose to do this together, so don't go off leaving me now.

[ Frenetically biting into the candy bar again. At least this is a manageable bite as she's still capable of being understood. ]

So what's up? My name is Kyouko and I guess I'm this town's latest hero. I'm sort of a big deal back home, so don't all introduce yourselves to me at once.

You think rather highly of yourself for a child.

[video forever]

[rites.livejournal.com]

I'm just tellin ya the truth.

[the-cold-steel.livejournal.com]

The truth? Talk is cheap, truth or not.

[rites.livejournal.com]

Whatever. You think I give a crap what you think?

[the-cold-steel.livejournal.com]

Enough to leave a message seeking the attention of the people in this city.

[soulsborderline.livejournal.com]

It takes some guts to declare yourself a hero out of the blue like that.

Besides, if this isn't "back home", aren't you wondering how you got here?

[also video forever hi i am as lazy as kyouko]

[rites.livejournal.com]

Yea, guts is something I've got a ton of. Like I said, I was a hero back home, so why wouldn't I just be one here? Persona and all that, can't be as rough as fighting witches and familiars.

[ The girl scoffs. ]

I know how I got here. I wasn't going to let Sayaka go alone, so that's why I'm here. There's no other explanation for it.

[soulsborderline.livejournal.com]

Hmph. Witches, huh?

[She leaves it at a simple question since she realizes that fighting Angels can't sound any less silly to people who'd never seen one.]

I don't know any Sayaka, but I might've missed her.

[rites.livejournal.com]

Yea witches. That's what I said, wasn't it? You're about the age of a Puella Magi too.

[ A tiny hmph.

Potential rival: yes. ]

Hey if you see a stupid white creature with red eyes around, kick it around some. It'll be better than any stupid wish he can give you, 'kay?

[ Might have missed Sayaka? Ruuuude. ]

I doubt you woulda missed her if you saw her. Blue hair, kind of runs around getting herself into stupid trouble.

[soulsborderline.livejournal.com]

Puella Mag...?

You know what I'm going to save you all the trouble the plebeians here gave me and just accept that you have some kind of superpower and fight monsters. Right?

[ishtar damn it. NOT ANOTHER ONE.]

How many of you children are just going to claim to be heroes as if it's some sort of game?

[video forever. also suck on it goldie. ]

[rites.livejournal.com]

If this is some kinda game, it's boring and I demand my money back.

[video] nope.avi

[best-king.livejournal.com]

Don't be stupid. All the money is mine. There's no way I'm letting a child touch any of it.

[rites.livejournal.com]

Is that so?

[ Digging around in her pockets, she'll pull out a dollar bill. ]

Oh look at this dollar I found. That's pretty neat. But since you said you're not going to let a child touch it, I guess I can't do this.

[ Leaning in, she brings her tongue right along from the top to the bottom of the paper vertically. Boy that was gross, but it would be worth it for this dude's reaction. ]

[best-king.livejournal.com]

[...Well, good job Kyouko, you have surely shown Gilgamesh you are superior in maturity to him. Excuse him while he actually doesn't give a fuck and just laughs.]

You do know that the exact same thing dancers do with their money, right? I hope nobody else happens to stumble across this feed, or you might have some things to explain to them.

[witchless.livejournal.com]

Kyouko.

What happened before you arrived here?

[Video]

[rites.livejournal.com]

[ Oh, it's you. ]

Uh, weren't you there? Don't you remember?

[Video]

[witchless.livejournal.com]

We seem to have come from different points in time.

[Video]

[rites.livejournal.com]

Different points in time? I knew you were creepy, but that's really reaching.

[Video]

[witchless.livejournal.com]

[sigh, she should have known, really.]

Why are you looking for Sayaka?

[Video] Even later in the night

[nrvn-qsr.livejournal.com]

So, did everyone jump a you already?

[Video]

[rites.livejournal.com]

Why would anyone jump me? I didn't say anything offensive.

[Video]

[nrvn-qsr.livejournal.com]

They just do so.

You have been informed of the basics, I assume.

[Video]

[rites.livejournal.com]

Yea, yea. This place ain't heaven or hell. I get it.

[Video]

[nrvn-qsr.livejournal.com]

And the Dark Hour.

And Personae.

But apparently we aren't bound to the island?

... []

You said you were looking for someone?
