Kirino Kousaka!

[ This video looks a little more dramatic than it should. For one thing, Yuri has her hands folded beneath her chin, looking quite serious. The background is dark, illuminated only by beams of the sun peeking out from behind her in the window. Before her is an egg, held in a holder.

This is in fact a bit of fun for Yuri, and also based entirely on the fact that she wants to win and find out just what this Gold Ticket situation is. The fact that Yuri looks like a movie villain probably doesn't reflect her intentions, but she is declaring this in public. ]

I've taken the egg hostage, get here right now or I'll give it to one of the other classmates to babysit while I take care of everyone else's "eggs."

[ Yes, she's making vague threats to everyone else's eggs to start a stir. What other reason would there be for declaring this out of private? Of course, if anyone ticks her off, she obtained a number of Ferrero Rocher chocolate balls from Caius that she's been planning to practice sling shot with. ]

[ She shook her head after hearing the names. ]

I've never heard of them. If they're dead, that doesn't mean they end up here. There are specific types of people who end up here, after all.

[losthersheep]

Specific types? What do you mean?

[ Mami's holding it in, but she wants to cry. She wants to know why she died and she can't even see the people she promised she see again. ]

The people who end up here are people who have regrets so strong they can't move on. The people who curse their lives but don't give up.

[losthersheep]

I see..

[ That sounds perfectly like Mami. Homura too. But it's surprising that Madoka would be here under those conditions. Worse, it makes Mami feel like a terrible person, that she still has regrets but Kyouko and Sayaka do not, or at least, are not here. ]

I thought under those conditions you were supposed to become a ghost.

We all thought a lot of things before we got here. I don't think anyone was right.

[losthersheep]

I guess that is true..

This is a lot to take in all at once. And I thought things had been strange before I got here..

I think "strange" is kind of a relative term nowadays..
