"Um, this is Madoka, Madoka Kaname.. I'm really, really sorry that I'm not here right now to answer, but-- please leave a message and I'll get back to it as soon as I can!"

Happy birthday, Madoka. If you want to, we can celebrate once this mess is out of the way.

[happyends]

[ .. Huh. She hadn't expected to get any birthday message. She didn't tell anyone about it, after all - not even Homura in the timeline she's from. But she figures she must have heard it from another her hten at one point, that's not too weird.. just a little surprising to see an unexpected message. ]

Homura-chan, thank you..! I'm fine no matter we celebrate it or not though. I mean, I wouldn't want to trouble anyone, and we don't know how long all of this is going to last..

[replayed]

It's okay. I'll go and get you something for your birthday, though. I hope you don't mind that it's late.

[happyends]

There's no way I would mind that! I'm already glad you're really bothering to get something for me to begin with, Homura-chan..

I don't even really know how to thank you for something that great. [ She really does think it's that amazing, okay. ]

[replayed]

You don't have to thank me. Simply being happy should be good enough.

[happyends]

But I want you to be happy too.. (/ω＼) That's not weird, is it?

[replayed]

It's not. But I'm happy when you're happy.

Madoka.

... I'm sorry as to what happened the other day.

[happyends]

[ Oh, gosh. She hadn't dared text Homura about it since she didn't know if the girl had gone back to normal or not, so she's actually sort of relieved Homura is the one to text her now.. but on the other hand, it's sort of awkward. Come on, Madoka, try to deal with it all the same.. ]

No, it's nothing you have to apologize for! You couldn't help any of that! [ So before questions or anything else, she figures she should at least comfort Homura or it'll only be more awkward. ]

[replayed]

I suppose not. I just hope I wasn't a bother while I was... like that.

[ Mostly because it's kind of embarrassing to actually become her former self in front of this Madoka. ]

[happyends]

[ "A bother".

She thinks of that Homura again. That Homura that was - in a way, if not more - so much like her. Shy, fretting, awkward, pretty insecure about herself.. and she's saying she might have been a bother.

Just like Madoka herself would have. ]

You'd never be a bother to me, Homura-chan!

[ It's text, so it doesn't seem more insistent than the last two lines, but its intentions sure as hell are more insistent. She can't let Homura think something like that, not when she's so amazing no matter what she's like. ]

[replayed]

[ She's silent for a moment or two; of course, it's text, so it's difficult to tell what emotions people are trying to convey at times, but Homura understands. She understands completely. ]

I see. ... Thank you.

[happyends]

[ At first she doesn't reply to.

But an hour or so later another message arrives, like Madoka has been mulling over all this time. She's still not sure what to do with the idea that Homura changed so much over her, but she knows she has to apologize in some way or form or she'll go crazy. This is just being unfair, isn't it.. ]

If ever need anything, please ask me.

Madoka! That new magical girl that showed up is stalking me!

[happyends]

[ .. give her a moment to stare at that message since what is going on already this time.. ]

You mean Kyouko-chan? What exactly is she doing?

[knightlyrondo]

She said she watched all my fights and the times I've hunted witches--Madoka, it's really creepy! Wait. You know her?

[happyends]

[ ... Oh, so Sayaka doesn't.. remember Kyouko.. well, that's sort of awkward. Especially considering what both Kyouko and Madoka do remember - she can't help but worry a little about Kyouko's feelings, hearing all of this now.

But she doesn't voice it. It would just make her friend even more confused. ]

Hm, I met her back home. She can come across as a little unpolished, but she's really a good person.. [ She almost adds that Kyouko showed up a little while after Mami died, but she really doesn't want to think about that moment again in the slightest. ]

[knightlyrondo]

[Well... That. That's interesting. Then again, she'd say the same thing about Homura. She has to ask, though:]

Did I know her?

[...did going witch really mess with her mind that much?]

[happyends]

Yes, you did. [ She would feel bad entirely lying to Sayaka, so she ends up telling the truth as the answer to that question. ] You talked a few times before.. all of that happened.

[ Let's not mention the whole "going witch" deal again, okay. ]

Madoka. If it's alright, I would like you to assist me with something.

[happyends]

[ The moment she spots a text from Homura, she's already opening it and moving to reply to it - she doesn't want to let the other girl wait. Maybe it's an emergency. ]

Of course I'll help you.. what do you need help with? [ The only worry in her mind is that maybe she'll be no good for what Homura wants, but she has to at least try even if she's nothing special. ]

[replayed]

I want you to remind Miki Sayaka of your friendship with her.

[ A simple and straight to the point answer. It's not necessarily an emergency, but it might as well be one for Madoka. She doesn't want the other girl to be upset for long, after all. Madoka's happiness is key. ]

[happyends]

[ At least Madoka knows what this is about.

After all.. she saw Sayaka as a NPC too, and it's been worrying her ever since then. It's like there's something digging straight into her heart every single time she thinks about it. ]

Do you think it might turn her back to normal? I already talked to her before..

[replayed]

There is a possibility, yes.

[happyends]

If it's for the sake of getting Sayaka-chan back to normal, then I'll do anything. It was really sad, seeing her like this, and.. I'm sure she must want to be normal again too.
