Samantha Howard had arrived at the table early on as well, and had remained mostly quiet as she chowed down on the standard, but quite tasty, breakfast. She would have preferred coffee to go along with it, but OJ would suffice. 

Though her expression lacked in the whole 'lively' department, she was still feeling embarrassed by the outfit she was made to wear, but a certain dilemma had overtaken her attention. 

[color=red][i]Why is everyone acting like it's normal to eat breakfast with a dolphin?[/i][/color] 

There were countless oddities in the strange magical world they inhabited. Things like world-ending elder gods, sentient trains, dragons, and Alexander. She could deal with all of these things, but for some reason it was different with the dolphin. He was just there, existing, talking, being sentient... menacingly. 

She glanced his way, her eyes narrowed. She had the swimsuit to deal with, she did not need this dolphin making her feel even more uncomfortable, or these other girls attempting to gaslight her. 

Just then, the girl sitting beside her spoke up. [color=#EB2323]"[/color][color=#EB2427]I[/color][color=#EC262C]s[/color] [color=#ED2A36]s[/color][color=#EE2B3B]o[/color][color=#EF2D3F]m[/color][color=#F02F44]e[/color][color=#F03149]t[/color][color=#F1324E]h[/color][color=#F23453]i[/color][color=#F23658]n[/color][color=#F3385C]g[/color] [color=#F53B66]w[/color][color=#F53D6B]r[/color][color=#F63F70]o[/color][color=#F74074]n[/color][color=#F74279]g[/color][color=#F8447E],[/color] [color=#FA4788]S[/color][color=#FA498D]i[/color][color=#FB4B91]l[/color][color=#FC4D96]-[/color][color=#FC4E9B]y[/color][color=#FD50A0]?[/color][color=#FE52A5]"[/color] she asked. Naturally, the girl was Sil's shadow taking the form of an idol known as Shade. She sat with a plate full of breakfast in front of her, but there was only a single bite taken out of it even after all this time. 

[color=red]"...nothing."[/color] Silhouette turned, noticing the plate. [color=red]"Why aren't you eating?"[/color] 

Shade looked dejected as she spoke.

Silhouette merely shrugged in response. [color=red]"Oh, that's true. I suppose I am guilty of overlooking that too."[/color]

The time Shade spent feeling down about this fact was rather short, as Dan loudly announced the Keijo tournament. Her eyes lit up in response.

[color=red]"Hey, do Idols have slang, or what?"[/color] Sil inquired.

Sil sighed. [color=red]"Sorry."[/color] she said. [color=red]"Just wanted to see if there was a more creative way to say 'no' to you, is all."[/color]

Shade did not seem put down by this. She almost seemed to have expected it.

[color=red]"How lovely."[/color] Sam took a sip of her OJ. 

Uninterested in continuing the discussion, Silhouette attempted to continue eating her breakfast. Unfortunately, she was dealing with a rather stubborn idol.

Sil blankly stared at Shade for a moment. She soon slowly looked down at her food, making sure Shade followed her gaze. But there was nothing wrong with her plate, aside from the fact Sam was mostly done eating it. It wasn't something interesting, at least. But while Shade tried to figure out what Sil was doing, the magical girl continued. Stabbing what remained of her egg, Sil raised the fork to her mouth and took a bite in what was perhaps the most drawn out action she could physically muster. Finishing the bite, eventually, she looked back up to Shade. [color=red]"Like this."[/color]

It wasn't long before Shade smacked the plate with enough force to send it flying. There was an oddly comedic sound coming from the plate as it zoomed out into the horizon, never to be seen again. Samantha stared longingly at the spot where her plate of food had once resided, before turning a sharp glare towards Shade. [color=red]"What do you hope to accomplish by robbing me of one of the few things that keeps me anchored to this world willingly?"[/color]

Shade scoffed.

Not to let her efforts go to waste, there was no pleasantness in Sil's voice or her expression. [color=red]"Do you find pleasure in this?

Perhaps sensing this, Shade's playful expression turned somewhat sour.

Silhouette shook her head, her eyes and tone a bit less intense than before. She answered the question seriously. [color=red]"Never bothered to think about what would happen after I die, honestly. Is there any point? That sounds like time better spent avoiding the need for a funeral."[/color]

The idol girl let out a frustrated sigh, the conversation now getting to her instead.

she asked. 

Samantha couldn't answer immediately. She wondered why the shadow clone she'd made to help her through a rather embarrassing time was now pressing her hard for subjects she never once bothered to think too hard about. Honestly, it baffled her. She had gotten frustrated with Shade on more than one occasion, but as far as she was concerned, Shade was an object, not a person. A tool to be used and nothing more. So it was worrying that it was showing this level of sentience. Having made up a [url=https://youtu.be/pbTt0iz-Wvc?t=264]persona [/url] on the spot, it was only meant to be a surface-level personality imbued with tropes she had picked up... for reasons. But now it was acting out in a way she could have never predicted. 

[color=red]"I,"[/color] Sam begun. Despite her confusion at being asked such a question by her schatten, of all things, she couldn't help but think about what her answer should be. If her hourglass emptied, would she be content with the life she had lived as a magical girl? She... couldn't say she would be, thinking on it. Were she able to say she was, she wouldn't be terrified of the thought of losing herself to the creeping darkness, the insanity that lay within. [color=red]"...no."[/color] she admitted. 

Shade beamed a smile. It was probably relieving for her to see Silhouette at least give her an answer, instead of ignoring her or trying to change subjects.
