( When the feed comes on, it swings awkwardly before coming to rest on a small pink haired girl in an elaborate --but soaking-- pink and white dress. Her red eyes blink curiously at the camera before she realizes the device is on, and ends up giving the feed a cheerful smile. )

— It does work! I was getting worried for a moment.

Ah... well, hello! My name is Madoka Kaname and if anyone can see this, I’d really like to hear from you or at least I’d really like to hear about this place! I don't think I've ever seen a place like this before…

I’m also looking for someone, her name is Homura Akemi. She’s about this tall, ( Madoka pulls back the phone as she says this, showing more of herself with her just as elaborate, and apparently stringless bow, as she raises her hand slightly above her own head. ) Has dark hair and purple eyes. It's really important that I find her; I’m sorry for asking so much but if you have information about her, I would really like to now. Thank you!

[Huh.]

She's not here, kid.

[She bites into the apple she had in her hand and kicks back, watching Madoka. That dress...was she--

--Hm.]

You're in Vatheon, now. And before ya ask, no, it's not near home at all.

Kyouko-chan... ?

( Madoka's hands pause in trying to ring her dress out, staring wide at the screen. )

Oh, um, I see. Have you been here long?

Yup. Who else? [She shrugs.] Don't look so surprised.

[She thinks about it for a few seconds before answering again:]

I've been here three months. I guess ya can say that I've been here for a while.

A-ah, sorry! It's nice to see you.

A lot longer than I would have though, I didn't... I didn't see you that long ago.

[That's better.]

Time does weird things to in this place, from what I hear. Brings people ya wouldn't expect here, too.

I see... and mm, the timing was really unexpected considering.

Is it only the two of us from home here?

Considering?

Nah, Mami Tomoe's here too. You'd be happy about that, wouldn't ya?

Mami-san is here too? ( Considering her point in time, she really shouldn't be that surprised by the fact when she is already talking with Kyouko. )

Mm, I am... because I have a lot I need to say to her. Still, I'm happy to see you too, Kyouko-chan.

Yup.

[She pauses a little.]

I'd guess ya do. I wouldn't really know, though. [Considering...she died.]

What do you remember, anyway?

Walpurgis had just appeared and I... ( She smiles softly, tugging at the hem of her dress. ) I made a wish, obviously.

What's the last thing you remember?

[She just looks at Madoka for a moment, and then shakes her head. Of course Madoka ended up making a wish.]

Dying. [She's blunt about sensitive things like this sometimes, oops.] At least, I thought I was dying - until I got here.

( Her face falls for a moment, glancing off. )

A-ah, I'm sorry that I wasn't able to do more for you or Sayaka-chan then. Maybe... maybe though things will be different with my wish.

[She looks away from the communicator as well.]

Don't beat yourself up over the past. It's not worth it. I made my decision.

[But she does raise an eyebrow.]

...'Things will be different'?

The wish I made... was to erase all witches before they were born with my own power. From every timeline and every universe.

[She's falls silent for a few seconds, but then looks amused.]

Heh. Of course ya did - you're always thinking about others, aren't ya?

( The silence worries her, but at the sight of Kyouko's amused look she cannot help smiling. )

I just... I just want the best for everyone.

Naturally. Looks like my warnings about doing things for others fell on deaf ears with you guys, huh?

I don't think something like that would be possible for me in the first place.

It was worth tryin' anyway. In the end, it's your decision no matter how much I disagree with it.

It's something I truly believe in, so I'll fight to make sure it comes true. ( She laughs bashfully, pulling at her gloves slightly as she gives a small smile. )

Oh... I never got the chance to really tell you before, but thank you Kyouko-chan for doing everything you did to try and get Sayaka-chan back.

[Ha. Haha. As if she didn't think about that all the time anyway...]

Not like I could just leave her like she was. I had to give it a shot.

Still, it was a lot to take on. I'm sorry I couldn't do more to help at the time, so just... thank you.

An-and I hope that being here together, maybe we can become better friends too!

( Because that to her as well, is very important. )

Don't mention it.

[She shrugs. She's not exactly open to becoming anyone's friend, but still.]

Who knows. Weird stuff does happen here, after all.

Oh, mm, of course! ( A beat. ) Weird stuff?

They call 'em curses. They happen every now and then...and they're pretty annoying if they happen to you.

[If they skip over her, she's perfectly happy to watch everyone freak out.]
