Scene #2831:

Owner	Pose
Amy Faust	When Miho comes to the door, Amy calls, "Come in, it's unlocked!" She's in dorm lounge clothes, a dark blue tank top and sweatpants and moccasins, and when the door opens she's already approaching to hug with a smile. "Good to see you again! Where've you been?"
Miho Inada	Miho shows up in a fall outfit. She's got a white tank top under a black hoodie, and some black sweatpants. She smiles a bit before she gives Amy a quick kiss, and a hug. The young woman breathes out a little bit. "You know how I can be at times. Anyways, I just got back from my weekly trip.", she tells. The mahou takes a long moment before pulls back. She takes a moment to adjust her outfit a little bit. Her eyes look a little worried. "I just got back from Kyoto, and I feel...like something's off. Like everything is normal, but something just...feels wrong. Might just be me.", she tells. The girl shakes her head a bit. "Nevermind. I'm back.", she says with a smile.
Amy Faust	Amy blushes at the kiss. And she smiles--- and then her face pales. "Shit. No one ''told'' you?! ...Your family is in Kyoto? Can you find any excuse to get them out of there for a bit? Time for a vacation, or something?"
Miho Inada	Miho blinks a little bit as she looks at Amy. "Yeah. I...live in Kyoto.", she tells Amy. She blinks a few times. "Umm, what? I mean, I can't just tell them to leave. Mom has to help with the shrine, and Dad has the Dojo slash Gym.", she tells. The girl just looks at Amy with the huh look. Miho has perfected this look since becoming a mahou. "Is there something in Kyoto that's about to make the city explode or something? Or is there a city wide Youma, world ending event, galaxy exploding point....Wait...The fact that I'm thinking of all this at this point, my life has gotten weird.", she says with a small head shake. "Seriously though, what's going on?", she asks.
Amy Faust	Amy sucks air in through her teeth, and sits on the bed motioning for Miho to sit with her. (The bed has four plushies on it: teddy bear, cougar, a magical girl, and another cat.) "So uh... a really bad Nightmare is... it's taken over Kyoto's dreamscape. It's not, like, killing people... but you can imagine it's hurting their sleep, and... it can possess their bodies to do things. So uh..." She puts her hands on her knees and looks down at the floor. "Shit. ''Shit.'' We don't have an immediate answer yet. The nightmare is on its way to Tokyo now and we're still figuring out how to fight it."
Miho Inada	The girl shakes her head a little bit as she sits on the bed a bit. Miho just watches Amy a moment before getting up. She hugs Amy a little bit before kissing her cheek. "Calm down. Its no different then everything else we face.", she says. Miho takes in a breath, and settles herself. "I still feel a little iffy on really fighting, but this is a different thing. This is planning on a fight. Which we have time to prep for.", she says. Miho helps Amy on the bed. She smiles a little. "We do what we always do. First find out what we're fighting. That's Rashmi, Setsuna, and the smart peoples' job. I'm sure they're probably already looking into it, and thinking about Nyx. Second, they tell our front line strategists who it is, and how to beat them. Then we all go out in a big group, and magically nuke them back to the dinosaurs.", she giggles as she holds cougar. Miho playfully has the cougar pounce on Amy a little. "Seriously, you're the vet. This is like, your hundredth fight? For now, just rest up, store up magic, and once we have target, smash.", she says. Amy would notice though, Miho's body is very tense. Her smile isn't quite...her happy one.
Amy Faust	Amy blinks, surprised but comforted at how calmly Miho is taking this. She can't help grinning at the playfulness with Faust Lion, and pets the plushie's head like a cat's.. She nods. "I think we can take a couple of the other nightmares out if we can get them alone somehow. Some will be more... difficult. But, aren't you worried about your family in the mean time? They could be in danger. It could use them to try to get to you."
Miho Inada	"Something my dad told me is that the hardest thing about a fight isn't the fight itself. Its the waiting for the fight. You think of everything that can go wrong, and what the other person can and can't do. You imagine the worst.", she tells. Miho shakes her head a little bit. "So the best way to deal with that? Trust that you've done the work before the fight.", she tells. The girl hugs the teddy bear. Miho is scared, but trying to keep it inside. "Think about this. I don't know how old this hair clip is, but its been in my family for /YEARS/. And that there's been threats in the past. Were we there to stop them then?", she asks. "Either way, does worrying about my family going to help me protect them? I'll trust that Kureha might have said something to her family, or word is getting around Kyoto.", she says. The girl bites her lip, before settling down. "Besides, what would a nightmare want from me? Have me send a snow bunny after Usagi, Madoka, or any other magic girl to steal their magical items?", she laughs. "I'm not exactly a big threat to anyone.", Miho continues.
Amy Faust	Amy nods. "No I... I get what he means. I'm... like, I was used to that part. We're working on it. Just... realizing you didn't know, and that you'd probably be worried for your family." When Miho hugs the bear, Amy turns to hug both of them. "Well... shit, I didn't even ''think'' about him trying to force you to do anything but not fight him. ...It's best that I don't think of ideas for him, probably. I just..." "...Is there anythin you need right now?
Miho Inada	Miho shakes her head a little bit as she hugs back. "Wait, you seriously never thought about that part? I lock up my hair pin when I sleep, cause I think about what would happen if I lost it. No hairpin, no Yukihime.", she points out. The mahou looks at Amy a bit. "You never thought about what happens if you lost your source of magic?", she asks. The girl shakes her head a bit as she stretches a bit. "I need...curry and sweets.", she says. "Its a long trip back here.", Miho comments. Her stomach growls a little bit. Ok, Miho is getting more used to being a magic girl if she's thinking about food. "And I don't know anything about Dreamscapes. I should probably study up on them, in case. Rules might be different in those.", she says. The girl snuggles into Amy a little. "But thank you for worrying about them. I'll worry for them, you don't need to.", she says.
Amy Faust	Amy blinks at Miho. "I uh... It hasn't been our foes' style, honestly. I guess it's unusual that I didn't... think of such things. ...I'm... I guess I get more worried about the horrors no one else thinks of like everything that can go wrong when a monster turns a bunch of people into bananas. What if someone steps on one? What if someone eats one? Our enemies have generally..." "...I guess... Usually they don't... like... do that sort of thing. Like, the ones that ''would'' would hit you with mind control. And not try any subtle shit." She takes a breath. Looks at her ring. "I... I guess I did almost always keep it near me. Sometimes I took it off to shower. Once almost forgot I'd taken it off when we were about to go out for noodles. That would've been... bad. But I guess we would've learned the truth sooner." She squeezes Miho with one arm. "Now that I know the truth? I do keep it on me, always. Or, I keep my body in contact with me, I guess, technically." "Curry and sweets... hmm. WHere's the easiest place to get curry right now..."
Miho Inada	Miho shakes her head as she laughs a little bit. "Well, there's the cafeteria, or we can text Rashmi if she has some spare curry around. It might be cause of my dad teaching me MMA when I was young. Always take away a person's weapon. If they like to kick, kick their thigh and calves. If they like punching, punch the bicep if you can. Grapple? Use knees and elbows.", she tells. The girl leans against Amy a bit. "But again, I'm an oddity of a magic girl, I think.", she says. The girl sighs a bit. "But yeah, for now, I don't want to think about that stuff, but I know we have to come up with plans. Do they have a way to slow things down to give people time to plan?", she asks. "Or is this another all hands do what you can thing?", she asks. Miho takes a deep breath. "I think I could use Dire Wolf Barricade to hold something down for a bit, but that's insanely tiring."
Amy Faust	Amy nods. "Riventon used to try to take magic items. I guess he's focused on something bigger now. But... even he agreed soul gems were off limits once he learned the truth." "I'm an oddity too. I ''am'' the source of magic, remember? If they try to take the soul gem..." She looks down at the ring. "Well, as long as I'm already transformed. I guess if someone managed to pickpocket it from me, or get it off me while I'm asleep..." She frowns. "Shit. I didn't think our enemies would ''do'' that. Maybe I got careless from most of Obsidian refusing to cross that line." She shrugs. "It seems he's gonna take awhile to get here. 'soon', but not... we'll hopefully see signs before he gets much of Tokyo." She shakes her head. "We have time to plan. And how to fight the nightmares will be part of that."
Miho Inada	Miho nods her head a bit. "Whose Riventon? Wait, I probably don't want to know if he tried to steal magic objects. It might be something they never do. Most of our enemies are silly youma stuff. But once in awhile, we do fight something thats a bit smarter then we give credit for.", she says. The mahou rolls her shoulders as she puts the plushie back down. "Maybe we can order some delivery? Curry is my first choice, but maybe some delivery ramen?", she asks. The girl falls on the bed a bit. "Also, I need to think about the Christmas stuff. There's more people that I know a little better now, and should probably start shopping.", she says. The girl shakes her head. For now, she wants to push the thought of a threat to her family to the side. Next time she goes back to Kyoto, she'll do some hunting of her own, but what can she do against a nightmare or dreamscape thing? "How well does magic work in this dreamscape thing? Or is like dreams where you think of a anvil, and it drops on a enemy?", she asks.
Amy Faust	Amy makes plans to obtain curry somehow at a convenient break in the scene! Delivery, or getting from Rashmi. Also, to her surprise: "Do you celebrate Christmas American-style? Although um... I hadn't thought yet, about what to do for Christmas. I'm not very romantic..." "Magic... our own magic works fine. But reality can be weird. Like, it's also a dream, so your mental state can affect you... and if it's someone else's dreamscape, their dream controls everything ''but'' what we do with our magic. But... I dunno just where we'll be fighting these." "Generally, magic works, just reality might be a little bit weird. Like navigating a Witch barrier."
Miho Inada	Miho takes a few seconds to think about things through. She pauses a moment. "So...They can change the reality to a desert, and I'll be screwed. Not a pleasent thought for an elemental style mahou.", she points out. The girl shakes her head a little bit. While she's not always the most tactful mahou, she does think a bit more about how to deal with things quickly, and safely. Miho shakes her head a little bit before she sniffs the air! CURRY! The girl happy sighs at the sight of curry! She claps her hands. "Thank you for this food. Let's eat!", she says. After a few seconds, Miho looks at Amy a bit. "Didn't you get some super high grade metal gundams last year that was left in front of your dorm door?", she asks. And just how would Miho know about that? The girl goes back to her curry. "The boxes might of been a little wet."
Amy Faust	"Well... I dunno. We haven't seen them do stuff like that before, the nightmares we encountered. Any more than a Witch is going to use its power over reality specifically to screw with you. I dunno if they ''can'' do that." Once they've started eating, Amy looks surprised. "That was you? Oh...." She smiles, "Playing Santa, huh? Leaving people gifts secretly? That's really nice of you. I'm terribl at coming up with gifts."
Miho Inada	"For the record, I have no idea what you're referring to.", Miho says with a wink. She shakes her head a little though. "I did the same thing with the spring bunnies. Sent them out with baskets of candy.", she tells. The girl noms more curry. Oh, sooo good. She can't help it. Magic does burn through a lot of energy. "Oh. I'm slowly getting used to combat, and seeing stuff. It might not be something they can do. I'm just thinking of what could be the worse thing for me to deal with.", she tells. As in...next weekend, Miho doing something dumb...Would it be surprising if Miho did something dumb? Nope. She would try to either capture a nightmare, or fight it outright in Kyoto...
Amy Faust	Amy nods. And hugs Miho thinking of nightmare scenarios (literally). "We don't know exactly what he can do. But... you don't have to imagine worse before it happens."
