Might be overpowered, but I figured I'd give it a shot.

What sort of prep school is an 8 year old going to? /:|
Shadow Eternity characters would be great. ^^;

Are you sure you can handle more though?


None of my chars are moving particularly fast, so I think I can manage. I'll get on something soon.
Hey Vita, do you need any more UMMA or Shadow Eternity characters? I can probably bring one in if wanted.
Guess I should call this a bump. Fandom stuff preferred but original stuff is welcome.
Sun shone through the windows, filtering past the dropped shades and onto the snoring girl there, who had successfully managed to shift her blankets until they were contorted and perilously close to falling off. Which admittedly was better than her old bed, a loft in the basement, but Miyako preferred that one.

Regardless of her current height, she grumbled as she shifted, trying to avoid the light and subsequent heat, up until the alarm clock went off to remind her that she had to go to school soon. She awoke with little hassle, quickly turning off the alarm and sitting up in bed.

"Hwaah," she sighed to herself, rubbing her eyes and stretching a bit in place. If she were to be honest with herself, it was only the magic she had that made her able to keep these sorts of hours in the first place. Of course, if she wasn't a magical girl then she wouldn't have these sorts of hours at all, but that was besides the point.

She rose after a few moments, walking over to the dresser and grabbing some clothes. With those in hand, she headed off to the shower, taking a short, yet hot one to wash away the built up grime, and to waken her up. She didn't doubt that they might be aware of her sneaking off, but she didn't want her family to know of what she did. That would just prove awkward and an issue she didn't want to deal with right now.

Her shower was soon done and she headed downstairs to make herself breakfast. "Good morning," she said to those there as she went about getting some cereal. Specifically, her little sister, and her parents. Not her brother though, since he was still asleep. He tended to do that, though he always cut it so that he wouldn't be late. But she couldn't exactly approve.

"Morning," they replied in turn. It didn't take long for the questions to start though. "So, how late did you get in," her father ashed in between eating his own breakfast, before he went off to work.

Miyako shrugged, pouring herself a bowl in the process. "About midnight or so,' she lied, fudging the number somewhat. To be honest she wasn't sure, though she knew that it was late. It didn't really matter past that point anyway, since she had magic on her side to make sure she could handle both academics and fighting.

Her father sighed, one of resignment more than disapproval. "I don't think you should be out that late on a school night," he said in return, whilst her sister stayed silent for now, focused on her own breakfast. She didn't know, though Miyako had warred with telling her.

Another shrug came from Miyako as she got a spoon and moved to sit down at the table. "I guess," she admitted. "But I do have good grades, and you said it was alright as long as I kept my grades up. Besides, I was with friends." She knew what to say by now to placate them, after becoming a magical girl.

"Well, I'm glad that you're making friends," her mother said after glancing at her father. She knew that they both felt the same way, but at least her mom was more willing to be compromising, or to simply leave things to her father. "Just don't let it affect your schoolwork, okay?"

Miyako nodded almost absentmindedly, now digging in. "Yeah, I know," she replied automatically. She'd heard it before. And really, if they knew what she was doing then they would more than agree with her. She was a hero after all, and that was something they could be proud of, much like they were proud of her brother for his sports, or her sister for her work with animals and plays and stuff. It was an area she could at last excel in and be on top.

They fell into silence at that point, her father leaving for work, and Miyako finishing breakfast before going to make her lunch. Once she wads done with that she could head off for school, her sister soon to follow afterwards. It wasn't the worst start, and she was looking forward to the day and what might happen.
This was based on present information, not things that haven't happened yet like a new MG showing up, which was why that wasn't included.

I'm fine with this, seriously. I'm just saying that from the perspective of the statement "Everyone is free to cry now," I as a player am not going to because the way that it happened doesn't incline me to feel bad about it in any way. That's all. You may take it as you will
@Flamelord

But...the others haven't seen Chiyo use a knife. Only her revolver.


Mami turned ribbons into muskets. It's not impossible for her to have another weapon.

@Flamelord That's just a lot of metagaming in my opinion. Specially since Chiyo was supposed to be in Mitakihara by now. I bet she can go there and come back by bus in one night, so she might as well have an alibi.

Also she might must say, "Ask the Contractor if I wasn't with him last night?" Kyubey never lies, but he also never tells more than he's asked, to, so she would have a good cover.

Anyway, a new mysterious girl who indeed uses a stabbing weapon will arrive in the city. So you have at least another suspect, not excluding the possibility of yet an unknown girl existing.

SI yeah all that was metagame based theory. In my view and I find it hard that@TheWindel or @MarsAdept would disagree with me.


While it's a stretch, it isn't that metagamey in my opinion. It follows on a reasonable deduction of facts that the characters in game would know. Is there any part in there that the characters in game would have no knowledge of?

For example, I can't take into account the possibility of a new MG showing up who uses a bladed weapon in these deductions, when I don't know she exists, even if it's out of character. Which still wouldn't explain how they managed to get the jump on her in her own home, without any sign of a struggle or a chance to fight back. Unless Emiri really was just that trusting of complete and total strangers.

While I admit that Chiyo may not be the prime suspect, she would certainly be up there on the list, if only for the reasons I described and akame's own in game distrust of her.
<Snipped quote by Flamelord>

When did Chiyo broke her disguise? The only one who knows about her is dead.


Process of elimination, primarily.

1. It wasn't a primordial. If it was, she would have been a lot more murderized, and everyone would have sensed it. Thus, it had to have been a magical girl
2. Rose, Izumi, and Elise were all together, so they have alibis.
3. Nanako doesn't use a stabbing weapon, so it couldn't have been her. As well, she and Miyako were together for part of the night and Miyako delivered her home, so she has part of an alibi.
4. Akame doesn't have a motive to kill Emiri.
5. Miyako doesn't have the motive.
6. If there were another magical girl in the city, she would have been found earlier. And the way she was killed suggests the element of surprise, which an unknown girl wouldn't have.

That leaves the logical conclusion as Chiyo, the girl none of us known anything about and the one Akame already suspects of being up to something fishy.

Which doesn't change the fact that I will not be crying over this, because I'm emotionally indifferent to it from an out of character perspective.
I can also argue that this was the point. The newbies weren't supposed to feel impacted by Emiri's death and so would probably not understand why Akame and Rose would spill tears over someone that was supposed to only be seen as a comrade at arms. Plus it was a way to get Emiri out of the story. As for Chiyo's shocking betrayal, that wasn't intended either since we (the players) all saw her being obviously evil a few posts ago.


Well, obviously when taken out of character. But in character it isn't all that shocking either because there hasn't been any time to get to trust Chiyo outside of that one mission, which not everyone was at in the first place. It's just 'Hey, turns out she's actually a bad guy', and we just roll with it. What was the point of even having her pretend to be on their side if she's going to blow her cover this early?

And while it does get Emiri out of the story, it just doesn't have any real emotional impact for me as a reader, coming so close after the other two technically character's dying. That's why I don't find myself any closer to real tears than before it.

Will there be impacts in character? Sure. But for the most part, I'm looking at it from an Out of Character perspective, and I wasn't that affected, and that's all I'm saying.
