As for San, I'd say they might be aqquainted, but probably not that well. Then again, they could be friends. Miki's easy going enough to befriend pretty much anyone, really. What do you think?
Shortly after they took their seats, Connie was surprised when Sakura joined them via some sort of warp gate/portal thing. And was that Tenebra with her? Her question was confirmed a moment later, when the small furry creature the silver-haired girl was holding introduced the trio. Connie smiled and gave a small wave at the newcomers, before the meeting continued along once more. Apparently, they would be splitting into two groups, and as Ronin spoke up to volunteer them for the infiltration team, Connie felt herself relax a slight bit. Hopefully that mission would be slightly less dangerous than a full frontal assault, but one could never be entirely sure, especially in a situation like this…
Connie’s trepidation returned a moment later, when, in response to the Beacon leader’s inquiry, Justine revealed one of the figures lurking behind the shadowy veil. The girl looked like a zombie, her eyes utterly dead, completely void of all emotion. But things swiftly proceeded along, and Connie tried to put the disturbing sight out of her mind. There were some words exchanged between Justine and Sakura’s little group, before the vampire girl mentioned equipping them all with weaponry. At that, Sonia produced a collection of items Mariette was supposedly vulnerable to, and, after the maid had finished explaining how they worked, Gaia walked over and took three broken mirrors for MDP, Connie, and herself.
“Ooooh~! Magical Dream Princess looks all crazy wazy in this thingie wingie~! (giggle!)” MDP declared upon receiving her mirror.
After that, the assault team got ready to depart, the others, Ronin’s little group among them, stepping back from the table in order to allow them to do so. In the literal blink of an eye, the assault team winked out of existence, leaving Ronin’s team alone with the remainder of the Beacon force, and now that the meeting was over, MDP finally had time to socialize with them! But first…
“Connie Wonnie~” MDP called in a teasing singsong voice. “It’s huggy wuggy time~! (giggle!)” she cheered, glomping Connie tightly and nuzzling her cheek against the masked girl’s back."Magical Dream Princess wants Connie Wonnie to know that she's gonna make sure Connie Wonnie stays nice and safey wafey, no matter what happen wappens~! (giggle!) That's, like, her super duper special wecial promise~! (giggle!) So, like, Connie Wonnie shouldn't worry, okie dokie~?"
“Oh! U-Ummm… O-Okay…” Connie said hesitantly, smiling as a blush began to color the cheeks of her mask. She was more than a little taken aback by the cheerful girl’s overwhelming enthusiasm, especially since the Lord of Nightmares had told Connie to be wary of her. Still, despite all her eccentricities, MDP seemed friendly enough. Indeed, the next thing Connie knew, the ditzy magical girl had released her and bounced over to what remained of the Beacon contingent, a happy smile on her face.
“Hiiiyee~!” she said by way of greeting. “So, like, what are your namey wameys~?! (giggle!)” she asked with giddy excitement. “Oh~! But, before you tell her, Magical Dream Princess should probably warn you that her memory wemory is, like, super duper terrible werrible when she’s Magical Dream Princess, so she might, like, totally wotally forget and have to ask you againsie, so, like, pretty please don’t be mad at her if she does, okie dokie~?!” she then gave voice to a squeal of delight, her eyes sparkling even more than usual. “Wowie zowies~!” she exclaimed, while jumping up and down in front of FanFan. “Magical Dream Princess thinks your big, metal wetal armsie warmsie thingie wingies are, like, sooo super duper cool~! (giggle!)”
Well, I was thinking Miki could be Hiroki's childhood friend. They often hang out together, although they probably don't think of each other as romantic interests just yet.
Contracted to: Aquisia, an ARMARUNE resembling an elegant-looking water pistol. She has a very calm, polite, and encouraging personality, much like Miki herself while in MAGILOCK form. In terms of her use as a weapon, the water Aquisia shoots never runs out, and can be controlled by Miki, who can change its pressure and direction of travel. In particular, she can turn the stream into a powerful piercing jet that would put the best pressure washer to shame, while at the same time causing that jet to curve around corners to strike hiding enemies.
When Miki is fused with a DRAGOKEY, Aquisia splits into two elegant pistols, with small, curved daggers protruding from their hand grips.
Abilities: Can control and manifest water. This can be used to form cutting jets, whip-like tendrils, swirling vortices, spheres of water to serve as cushions or prisons, and walls of water to block attacks. She also possesses some minor healing abilities.
MAGILOCK=DRAGOKEY Abilities: When fused with a DRAGOKEY, Miki's abilities are boosted to include mastery of ice and steam.
History: Miki was just a normal teenage girl until the fateful day she came across an ornate and elegant water pistol of unusual design. Far stranger than its appearance was the fact that it was, for lack of a better word, alive. It told Miki that it was an ARMARUNE, and that it had found her worthy of its mystic power. If the tomboy was willing to make a contract with her, the ARMARUNE would bestow upon her the power to fight the SEVENSIN, vile creatures that were filling the world with great misery and strife. Although initially shaken by these revelations, Miki was a kind-hearted girl who cared greatly for the wellbeing of others, and so it didn’t take long for her to agree to make a contract with the talking toy and become a MAGILOCK.
Since that day, Miki has battled the SEVENSIN, while also keeping up with her athletics and schoolwork. Living a double life has certainly been exhausting, but Miki doesn’t regret her decision one bit, although she often thinks that it might be nice to have someone to share her secret with. Not her childhood friend, though. That would just be too embarrassing…
Personality: A sporty tomboy, Miki has a laid-back, “go with the flow” personality. Although normally not one to take anything particularly seriously, she makes a notable exception for swimming. She has always loved the water and is an avid swimmer. As a star member of her school’s swim team, she puts an intense focus on practicing not seen elsewhere in her life. She also likes to tell jokes (especially to cheer people up) and has a good sense of humor.
When transformed, she takes on a more gentle and soft-spoken demeanor. Sweet and loving, she speaks in a tranquil and soothing manner, offering kind words of reassurance and encouragement to others, and wishing for everyone to get along. She is also unfailingly polite, never swearing or using harsh language.
In her MAGILOCK form, Miki (or rather, Cerulean Cascade) wears an elaborate dress, decorated with flowers and bows. Normally, she would never be caught dead wearing something so girly, but with the more serene persona of her magical alter ego she gains a greater acceptance of it.
When fused with a DRAGOKEY, Cerulean Cascade takes on a much more mature and voluptuous appearance. Her modest dress is replaced with the skimpy outfit of a dancer, granting her much greater freedom of movement, and allowing her to manipulate her element in a far more graceful and elegant manner.

As the motley quartet entered the underground parking garage, Gaia took note of the furnishings and faces present. There was the Beacon contingent, just as Ronin had told them, contrasted by a group of shady-looking men in suits. Then, there was the grinning young lady seated at the far end of the table… This was obviously Justine, and she seemed to have other allies waiting in a shadowy veil behind her. That certainly wasn’t suspicious… After Ronin had introduced herself, Gaia led the others in doing likewise.
“Greetings to all. I am Gaia, Daughter of Mother Earth,” she told the gathering in a serene voice. “It is my great pleasure to make your acquaintance.”
“H-Hello, I-I’m C-Connie…” the masked girl stuttered softly, while nervously playing with her hair. “I-It’s v-very n-nice t-to m-meet y-you a-all…”
“Wowie zowies~! (giggle!)” Magical Dream Princess exclaimed upon seeing just how large the gathering was. “There’s, like, sooo many people weple here~! (giggle!) And, like, Magical Dream Princess can make friendy wendies with all of them~! (giggle!) Oh~! But, like, firsty worsty she should, like, totally wotally introduce herself~! (giggle!) Tada~! She’s Super Cute Pretty Pretty Magical Dream Princess, but, you can, like, just call her Magical Dream Princess for short, or even just MDP~! (giggle!) That’s, like, a super duper cute nicknamey her friendy wendy Katie Watie came up with, and Magical Dream Princess just wuvs it to pieces~! (giggle!) It’s, like, so super duper nice to meet you girls~! (giggle!) And boys~” she added, while getting an even more dreamy look in her eyes than usual.
After that, Gaia guided Connie and MDP to some chairs on the side of the table farthest from Justine. As the meeting commenced, Gaia calmly observed the proceedings, taking note that the dark-haired girl in the fancy dress seemed to be the leader of the Beacon forces. She also would occasionally spare a glance at Connie to see how her timid friend was holding up.
For her part, Connie sat in nervous silence, listening to the others speak, but not understanding very much. She took some small comfort in the fact that Gaia was giving her hand a gentle squeeze under the table, but that comfort quickly disappeared when a frightening voice sounded in her mind. It was the voice of her Patron.
That girl… the voice whispered, sounding both curious and disdainful. Her magic is… familiar… Be wary of her, Empress, The Lord of Nightmares advised. Be ever on your guard…
As for the girl in question, well… One would ordinarily assume that someone as hyperactive as MDP would be talking a mile a minute, getting to know everyone, and commenting on every little thing that transpired over the course of the meeting, but strangely enough, that didn’t happen. Instead, she simply sat in her seat, glancing around the room with a big smile on her face and a look of childish wonderment in her eyes. She occasionally fidgeted in her seat, but she didn’t say a single word. This was partly because she was doing everything in her power to keep quiet like Gaia had asked her, but the main reason was because she was having a very interesting mental conversation with her Patron…
Oh, goodness me! See that girl next to you, sweetie? The Sovereign of Sweet Dreams inquired, her voice filled with concern. That girl is a servant of the Lord of Nightmares, you know, that super duper meanie weanie who imprisoned me in that book! She’s very dangerous! You’ll have to stop her before she does something horrible!
Golly wolly! For realsie?! B-But, like, Connie Wonnie is, like, a super duper sweetie weetie pie! Like, Magical Dream Princess can’t believe she would ever do any nasty wasty thingie wingies! Oh! But, like, Magical Dream Princess has an ideasie~! Like, what if that meanie weanie nightmare persony worsony was forcing poor Connie Wonnie to do all those nasty wasty thingie wingies for him? Like, she could be just like those poor girls Magical Dream Princess is helping Samurai-chan rescue!
Gosh, sweetie, you could be right! In that case, you should do everything you can to free her from that meanie and help her have sweet dreams again~! Can you do that for me, sweetie~?
Like, of coursey worsey she can~! Magical Dream Princess just wuvs helping her friendy wendies, and Connie Wonnie might wear a creepy weepy masky wasky, but, she’s, like, a total wotal sweetheart, and Magical Dream Princess just wuvs her soooo much~!
MDP giggled softly as she looked at the trembling girl sitting next to her. She was just so adorable with her eagerness to make new friends, despite her shyness. And now came the knowledge that the girl suffered under such a horrible Patron… MDP just wanted to give her the biggest hug, but she knew this wasn’t the time for such things and so forced herself to hold off.
Don’t you worry, Connie Wonnie, Magical Dream Princess is, like, totally gonna save you from that meanie weanie head and give you sweet dreamy weamies again~! That’s, like, her super duper most special wecial pinky winky promise~!
