... You really don't like the idea of hurting anyone, do you?

[frilly]

I can do it if I have to.

But I'm more used to fighting monsters than people.

[selfimmolates]

Same. But you and I evidently think nothing alike.

[which isn't necessarily a bad thing.]

Could you kill a person to protect yourself?

[he promises that he's going somewhere with this...]

[frilly]

Yes. Because they'll come back, when it's all over.

[selfimmolates]

In that case, why not sacrifice yourself?

... I'm not advocating you do that, by the way. Definitely not.

[frilly]

Because if possible, I'd like to win.

[selfimmolates]

[he smiles a little.]

... A good enough answer. I'm just a little surprised to hear it coming from you.

[frilly]

If something like this has to happen, I'd like to make it as painless for everyone as possible. So I'll be happy even if I don't win.

But I would like to.

[selfimmolates]

For the record, in that case, I still think you should've lied.

[frilly]

... If I ask you, will you lie?

[selfimmolates]

[...

he sighs.]

No. Though this is a bit of a special case, anyway.

[frilly]

Are you planning to switch?

[selfimmolates]

No.

[for a moment, he's quiet, before he runs a hand through his hair, looking tired.]

Sorry. Senri actually told me your alignment, so I knew from the start.

[frilly]

Oh, are you friends with Senri-kun, too? I'm glad!

[ She likes Senri!!! ]

[selfimmolates]

... You really do roll with just about anything, don't you? You don't care that we've technically been talking about you behind your back?

[madoka is throwing him off so much!!]

[frilly]

It makes me feel a little bit self conscious... But I don't think Senri-kun would say anything mean. And it's normal to talk to people about the other people you know.

[selfimmolates]

... You're way too nice about this.

[aka he has no idea how to handle this, help.]

[frilly]

Maybe...

[ she has her reasons, but. also knows he's not wrong. ]

[selfimmolates]

[he just sighs. which he feels like he's doing a lot lately.]

Anyway, Senri and I are cooperating to try and find a less... bloodthirsty way to proceed in the competition. That's it.

[frilly]

[ poor Ray... ]

I may not have a lot to offer - but I'll help you however I can.

[selfimmolates]

People like you and will let their guard down around you. That's something.

[frilly]

Yes, I've noticed that.

[selfimmolates]

It's useful. Senri's the same way.

[frilly]

I haven't been asking many people, so I still might not know as much as Senri-kun does... But...

[ Madoka takes out her journal, and... Flips past her doodles of everyone from when she was memorizing their names, and past the witch and familiar doodles, to a page where she's written:

Senri - Beauty
Nonon - Love
Yu - Love
Hector - Ruin
Chuuya - Disorder → Sincerity
Takaomi - Merriment ]

[selfimmolates]

... And you're okay with just showing me this?
