[color=888888]— Suki Oyama[/color][/center]

Haruna actually met a dark magical girl? Just how weird does this get? 

If she was keeping her identity a secret this long, it was hard to be surprised she’d hide a whole dark magical girl too. Whatever. Some people just found it easier to lie than tell the truth. Suki didn’t even know how to respond to this new information, but it seemed like Kiyo did. She had to wonder if all that stuff Willow was saying about the two of them didn’t have an element of truth to it. Kiyo was acting all bored and curt until Haruna opened her mouth. But Suki had no intention of saying anything. Partially because she didn’t need the extra drama right now, but also that was a really good burger. It wasn’t a date or anything, but hopefully Kiyo would take her out to eat again sometime. 

Then Tsubomi changed seats. It was unusual for her to do something like that. Typically the girl liked to move around as little as possible, but hell if Suki could understand why. The slow motion patting only served to confuse Suki more, but it wasn’t an unwelcome gesture. It took her back to the time on the roof before Ashbringer showed up. Though it was difficult to fully appreciate when she was trying to listen to everyone speak and knew Nyxia was, well, inr ange to say something snarky. But as baffled as Suki had been, she was even more so when Tsubomi opened her mouth. 

What. Even. Was that?

She was talking in some strange code that Suki didn’t understand. That wasn’t something she normally did, Suki didn’t think. In fact, Tsubomi was usually very bad at interpreting things told to her that weren’t very specific. Just the other day she hadn’t realized Suki had called her sunshine. Though before Suki could come up with some idea of what the numbers and nicknames were a reference to, it seemed like Kiyo had worked it out. It was good that someone had understood her, but horrible that again, Suki could do nothing for her friend. 

[color=tomato]”Yea.”[/color] Suki added, if only in a futile attempt to feel like she was a part of this. Then Shuuko started speaking. Honestly, she had been kind of weird recently, and was much less open than anyone else here. It wasn’t like talking had ever gotten Suki in trouble. [color=tomato]”I uh, I really only said we could recruit them in jest. Some of them are sort of mean. Really though, you think that two whole dark magical girls are hiding? What if one of them’s a light girl? I really fine the idea of anyone hiding in the town itself hard to believe.”[/color] Surely the all knowing Rei would have done something about it. And if not her, then her house cat. Though they had been playing a lot of hooky recently… 

The comment about Tsubomi wasn’t even worth addressing. It wasn’t a surprise that she had already forgotten what Suki had told her the other day. She knew Shuuko was all about her honey pot Roche. [color=tomato]”How many GEMs are there? I dunno. The City of Light is sorta mysterious. I imagine a light girl from there would know."[/color]

And sure enough, Haruna did know. She had even met a few of them. And if she chose to say how many she thought there were, that number would have been “a lot.” There used to be several magical girl teams in the City of Light, but gradually they’ve been absorbed by the GEMS into a giant super team. Not counting the few solo girls that roam the place, they are the only team in the City of Light. They likely had over ten members, maybe closer to twenty.

[color=deeppink]”Well [i]I[/i] thought that was funny.”[/color]

[color=888888]— Willow[/color][/center]

[color=deeppink]”Lap dog? Come on, frog legs, at least get my race right!“[/color] Willow grit her teeth. [color=deeppink]”I didn’t spend all my time getting my PhD in kitty behavior school just to have you call me lap dog! You call yourself a light girl with such a naked display of racism?!“[/color] Oh yes, Willow was having a good time. 

Though it did seem like something was amiss. Magic was bullshit, but using airborne frogs as a stepping stone to get higher in the sky was a level of BS she only got to see when Rei chose to do anything. But that was some sexy BS. This was just someone frogging around. 

[color=deeppink]”Someone drank their redbull this morning.“[/color]

Willow’s ability to float above a fight was great, but it wasn’t something that allowed for a quick getaway. As soon as the frog priestess jumped off her last frog, and shot it towards her unicorn. The steed wasn’t about to get crushed twice, and managed to get out of the way just as the meteor frog slammed into its previous position. Kaeru flew towards Willow’s face. The dropkick was coming in, Willow winced and braced for impact, and then Kaeru’s leg passed right through her on her way back down. Her face lit up with twisted joy. 

[color=deeppink]”Oh yea! I forgot, I’m a little ghost kitty!“[/color] She smirked down at her opponent. [color=deeppink]”I’m already dead! The fight’s over, you should cry for me atop the mountain!“[/color] Or Willow could phase through some attacks.

The unicorn was preparing itself for another charge, this time aimed at Kaeru herself. But it seemed that some other animals were making their way onto the scene. A few dwarf monkeys peaked down from the rooftops to examine the fight taking place.
