[The screen shows Homura smilng softly for a few moments]

... It's nice here. Even with the danger at midnight. 

People can defend themselves without having to contract.

... I like it. And... I'm glad the people from home are here, it's safer.

'Contract'?

[He was pinged by that word, having come from a time and place where that word was important.]

You give up your soul for a wish.

[maguskiller.livejournal.com]

[And there's another one. 'Wish'. Lot of terms he's wary about here.]

You're from a world with magic, then.

[witchless.livejournal.com]

I am.

What do you mean by 'contract', Miss Homura?

[Video]

[witchless.livejournal.com]

At home there's a creature that offers to grant any wish, but at a very steep cost. It takes your soul in exchange.

[Video]

[crownedexorcist]

[That got his attention. Particularly the 'soul' part.] Such a contract exist...

[He thinks back to the Millennium Earl and his offer to revive the dead, back when he's just a child.]

What happens to the soul?

[PING. Three for three, Homura.]

I'm sorry, did you just say 'contract'?

[video]

[witchless.livejournal.com]

[Has everybody made one at some point? It seems like it...]

... I did.

[video]

[croibhristeoir]

[Short answer: Yes.]

What kind of contract, exactly?

[Video]

[skaldssong.livejournal.com]

A contract? ...What, like in writing?

[She processes the cryptic statement for a moment before coming to a conclusion.] Huh. Guess a Persona doesn't need one of those, then.

...You're right though. Or, I agree. It's pleasant here.

[witchless.livejournal.com]

It's not in writing, but it is a binding agreement.

It's nicer than home.

[Video]

[skaldssong.livejournal.com]

Mm. I guess I'm just used to seeing ones that are written or verbal. Suppose there are other types than those.

For you too, huh? It's... noisier, for me. I can't really complain about that though. Lively is how a city should be, don't you think?

What kind of contract?

[witchless.livejournal.com]

A wish in exchange for your soul.

[berry-paunch.livejournal.com]

[...]

Who did you contract with?

[Video]

[techno-logical.livejournal.com]

I agree, it is nice here.

... But, um, what do you mean by 'contract'?

[Video]

[witchless.livejournal.com]

Where I'm from you could make a contract by exchanging your soul for a wish.

[Video]

[techno-logical.livejournal.com]

Your soul? Bloody hell...

[But... don't people need souls?]

Then, what happens to the soul?

[Video]

[cut-lass.livejournal.com]

It's nicer...

Are you being honest?

[Video]

[witchless.livejournal.com]

... I don't have a reason to lie.

[Video]

[cut-lass.livejournal.com]

Hmm...

Okay, I'll believe you.

...Hey, this isn't right.

[witchless.livejournal.com]

What do you mean?

[k1-sauce.livejournal.com]

So melancholy and sad...

This isn't right! As a man, I can't let this go! A pretty girl shouldn't be weighted down with despair. She should smile!
