☆ Pink Hair Ribbons

[fatedmagica]

[ action ☆1333 benny ]
[ Madoka decided to do her laundry and clean her room properly. She's been a bit on edge since the Carnival and can't get the traumatizing images from the fun house out of her head, so cleaning the new outfits she regained seemed like a good way to clear her mind. One of the things she decided to do today was wash all of her collected hair ribbons and do up her hair with the ones from home, hoping it would make her feel better.

Little does she know, someone has become "popular". And that someone is her. ]

[ action ☆malt shop ]
[ Another way to clear your mind is buying yourself to a treat, right? Madoka thought so too! So she broke out her savings and went to buy a milkshake. Just as she was about to pay for it,  a drone boy stepped in and got it for her. ]
Eh? Um, well-- you don't have to, I um... I have the money... [ And then another drone offered buy her a snack to go with it.  ] What? No... no, that's okay, I really couldn't...
[ Suddenly, Madoka finds herself sitting at a table with a bunch of drones. It hasn't occurred to her yet, but she seems to have become "popular" overnight. She's surrounded by milkshakes of all flavors and a bunch of drone kids talking to her about things she doesn't know much about. And as uncomfortable as this makes her, she doesn't have the heart to ask them to leave. ]
Sorry, um, I... I'm not sure... what's popular and what's not um... the clothes you're wearing... l-look fine... [ Someone come rescue her. She doesn't know how to handle this. ]

[ action ☆ around town ]
[ Okay, really, what's up with the teenage drones lately? Madoka is carrying a few shopping bags because she made the mistake of window shopping, which turned into "real shopping" when her admirers came to her rescue. She is also walking around town in stealth mode, ducking behind lamp posts and into shops when she sees drones coming. This is how you solve problems. ]
What's wrong with them today? Why is everyone treating me this way... I-I'm not cool at all. Maybe Mama was right about these hair ribbons...

[ phone ☆ ]
[ And after a hard day of being a popular girl, Madoka collapses on her bed and picks up the phone. ]
Um... I know this is a weird thing to ask about um so... please forgive me... Have the drones ever treated anyone, um... strangely? They keep asking me for fashion advice and talking about records... I don't know any of that stuff, though, so um...

Can someone um... give me... advice? I want to help them... if they're asking, I want to help... Even if they're drones... If they're counting on me then I want to be able to give them good advice!

Action - Around town

[768mph]

[Today seems to be the perfect day for running around. Wind in his quills, Sonic rolls quickly into a ball and up the side of a building and down the other side.]

Phew! What a workout.

[As he wipes his forehead, he spots Madoka hiding.]

Huh? What's goin' on?

[fatedmagica]

Eh?! O-oh! Sonic-san!

[ Madoka peeks out, smiling weakly. ]

I-It's nothing really, j-just... the drones um... I'm avoiding them, a bit!

[768mph]

Avoiding them? They're harmless.

[A passing-by one pets him on the head, saying 'Good dog.']

Annoying...but harmless.

[fatedmagica]

[ Madoka flinches and hides as that drone goes by. ]

They've been following me today... And asking me things, I don't know why!

[768mph]

Following you?

[Now that's kinda odd behavior.]

What kind of things are they askin' you?

[fatedmagica]

A-about clothes and records and style... things I don't really know very much about... I don't understand why they'd come to me, of all people...

[768mph]

Yeah. That is kinda weird, if it came out of nowhere like that.

Then again, even if it is just drones, I don't see why people wouldn't gravitate to you. You're very nice.
