Oriko got hurt. Someone attacked her. I took care of it, though.

Where's the priest guy? I think I need to talk to him.

Right.

[She sighs and crosses her arms.] I'm not going to let this happen again.

[fortheworld]

There will always be risks, Kirika.

[justforyou]

I'm not going to let another magical girl do that.

[fortheworld]

Kirika, as of right now you will need to gather enough grief seeds for two people. I understand that you are angry, but we do not have the power to spare.

[justforyou]

Oriko, now that you're out of action for now you won't be straining your soul gem that much. We can split grief seeds but even that aside, I can handle this.

[fortheworld]

The sooner I can heal, the sooner I am recovered. [but fixing up this is going to take more than the seeds they have; she's unwilling to use them without a guaranteed supply.]

Fighting Witches puts you at enough risk as is.

[justforyou]

[she sighs.] I can keep beating Witches. That's not a problem.

It's the other girls. The ones in this timeline--we can't talk to them, if that's going to happen. We can't just ignore them either: if we're just talk about grief seeds, then I'll be competing to get them.

[fortheworld]

For now, we need to focus on our own survival. Acting aggressive will do us no favours.

For the moment, we are the only magical girls covering this area of Mitakihara; we should exploit that for as long as we can.

[justforyou]

We can stockpile Grief Seeds...but we'll have to keep an eye out for other magical girls.

[She pauses.]

...are you mad at me, Oriko?

[fortheworld]

Not at you, Kirika. Not at you. [she'd be dead otherwise. She's not going to ignore that...]

[fortheworld]

We shouldn't have any problems, but Miss Sakura will come here eventually.

[justforyou]

[That's somewhat a relief. Oriko didn't hate her!]

That weird red-haired person, right. ...I can take her if it comes to that. I'm sure of it.
