[The absolute, smallest smirk played on Homura's lips.]

I suppose you always were stubborn.

But, let me ask you something, first, before I answer. What was happening, before you awoke here?

[ Kyouko shrugs, as much as a pony can. And looks away. It's a little while before she speaks. ]

Killed Sayaka and myself. Saved you.

[The air around them almost seems to darken, become tense - yet relax, at the same time - as Homura takes her time to respond.]

Then you know the truth.

[ Kyouko doesn't answer, just stares at the ground, her legs drawn into herself. ]

...A moment from my past.

[Her wings rustle a little. A flare of anger was in her voice - though not at her.]

In that world...all your sacrifice did was satisfy Kyuubey's goal.

No it isn't. Don't you dare say that. D'ya think I was gonna let Sayaka die alone? [ Her voice shakes, barely. ]

That hardly mattered. Regardless of whether she died alone, or not. Whether your words and actions touched Sayaka in those final moments.

[They did. That much she knew, at least, even if the redhead would never personally experience that epiphany from the girl in question. ~~Or remember it, at least.~~]

Do you really think that beast told you that you might have a chance, because he felt any sympathy for what happened? For what he did? Or that he felt bad at all afterwards?

[That darkness around them becomes just a little more potent, with tiny little swirls of purple wind, as she turned at last to face Kyoko with her tired eyes.

A sign, of something. Who knew what, though. Even now Homura is clearly holding back.]

There are many things I could say and do right now, which you couldn't stop me from doing now, even with all of your power. But as I've dealt with quite a few dreams and delusions recently, I'll stick with the truth of what I know, for now.

Your death was meaningless. Your death, and your feelings about the one you took with you, in that grand scheme of things. All it was, was a means of having Madoka contract.

Shut up!! [ Well aware of what she's doing, Kyouko drops out of the tree and decks Homura across the face. She doesn't quite stick, the landing, though.

Wobbling, she gets back on her hooves to stare daggers at Homura. ] I knew what I was getting into, okay? I knew that I stood as much of a chance as her. But she wasn't going to be that evil thing longer than she had to! Not if I had anything to bucking say about it!

...Heh.

[A strange smile starts to cross Homura's face. She didn't even bother flinching from the hit.]

I see. I'll admit, dying for someone you care for...

[Quietly, she flips her hair. Slowly, almost methodically, as the bruise on her face, as quickly as it appeared, disappeared.]

...Even if I disagree that your death act truly helped in that moment, you were more successful at it than I was. Its a noble thing, I suppose. But should you really call what Sayaka became 'evil'?

She was suffering. [ She knows that much. ] It doesn't matter. It's done. [ She sits dejected on the grass, turned away from Homura. ] And now we're here, and... I dunno.

[ She picks at the grass in front of her and tries chewing on it. Surprisingly edible. She supposes her entire biology has changed, which is beyond weird. ] I dunno where here is, but at least... at least Sayaka's dead.

[She is quiet for a moment, the smile faltering. It was hard to be diabolical and boastful and superior and evil, when the person you're arguing with isn't as much of a hard-headed zealot about things like the last person you acted such towards.]

Its never done.

[The swirls in the air, like a Van Gogh, quietly dance away from the two, dissipating into the air, like waves into the sea.

Instead, she takes a breath through her nostrils.]

This place...isn't like any Earth. The curses exist, but they aren't like ours. Simpler. Less burdensome. And the monsters...those that aren't misguided or stubborn are simply mindless animals, in the end.

[Filling, but hardly pleasurable to partake in. Like hospital soup.]

Edited 2014-02-27 05:50 (UTC)

Great. Another system. [ Kyouko realizes she doesn't have a taste for it anymore. ] You fight them. I could give a buck.

[A shrug.]

I have almost no need for whatever these animals might drop myself. In any case, you're wrong; there's no system here for it.

Edited 2014-02-27 06:02 (UTC)

Well, the monsters, then. [ She throws her hooves in the air, weakly. ] Whatever. I don't think I have a soul gem anymore, so I don't need grief seeds.

Fight them or don't. I don't care.

Is that so?

[Homura, at least, didn't believe that.]

But, if that were true, you should not exist.

You saying I should off myself? Yeah, right. [ She shoots an irritated look at Homura. ] Cause your plans always work out so well.

[ Homura's shaken her out of her moroseness, at least a little. ] I'm not goin' anywhere, jerk. We'll just have to deal with each other.

If that's what you wish for my words to mean, very well.

...Hm.

[And then, like the sound and sight of a record scratch, Homura was a unicorn.]

I guess it can't be helped.

[ Kyouko observes the transformation, and notices with some indignance that Homura's a unicorn, too. Which makes her the only magical girl here who can't use magic. ]

Hey, teach me how to do that.

[Of course. A dragon, who can disguise itself as an innocent pony.]

I don't know if that's possible. Can you use magic?

Edited 2014-02-27 16:06 (UTC)

[ Her only response is a frustrated groan. ]
