♥ good life choices

[ action ♥ 335 Brady Lane ]
[ When Satou woke up from dying she was cold and miserable. Just like the last time, she's stuck in a state of being a corpse and feeling so miserable and scared that she flops back in her bed, curls up, and takes some of the morning to feel sorry for herself. Then gets up, covering her head with her bed;s blankets, and goes downstairs. Where she finds two packages. ]
Au... I think I'd rather have a pulse than mail right now...

[ phone ♥ ]

U-um... I'm back! I'm back... Hello. Sorry about being in the carnival, um... I got some mail. Did anyone else get packages?

[ She fiddles with her two new cards. One has her favorite magical girl dress on it and the other has a classic demon. ] I hope everyone got back from the carnival okay. Haruhi-san, do you have the newspaper I gave you? Um, maybe we should get together and look that over... Did anyone else find newspapers or anything useful in the carnival? Could you let me know? I'm Satou, um and. I'm curious.

[ Satou pauses, looking at the card with the demon on it and frowning. Unimpressed with her regain and not sure what it means. ] And um... Alphonse...san, Mr, um... If you're listening, um... I'm sorry, sir... I about not being nice.

[ action ♥ makeout point ]
[ Despite what would be considered "good judgment", Satou heads to makeout point a few hours after her initial phone call to try training her magic. She's frustrated after letting herself get killed again, even when she had her magic, and needs to vent some steam. ]

Hm... no one is here, I hope? I wonder what that second card means...

Dude, who d'ya wanna shoot?

[priceofmagic]

Targets...? For right now, anyway. I need to be in practice and a really good shot next time I need to protect people.

[noluckduck]

... Can ya even use a gun?

[priceofmagic]

Um~! I can shoot the gun Mikky gave me... the K100... Power... Grand.... thing.

Can you, Clover?

[noluckduck]

... Actually, Hungary kinda taught me.

But that's like, nearly totally fuckin' irrelevant.

[priceofmagic]

We should try practicing some time! I can make you some targets, if you want!

[noluckduck]

... Okay, you're way too excited about this and it's kinda freakin' me out.

[priceofmagic]

But I want to do things with Clover! We don't spend much time together now that school is out!

[ And all teenage girls shoot guns together! It's the new pedicure. ]

[noluckduck]

Look, I-- Listen, I'm not sayin' firin' guns ain't cool, I just never... Ya didn't seem like the type!

[priceofmagic]

Huh? Not the... [ Ding.

Satou realizes that she's been breaking the mold of "the person she wants to be" and acting more like... well, herself. ]

O-oh! Well um! I mean um! I was just suggesting since um... we seemed to have it in common! We could do something better... Firing guns is so scary, I think!

[noluckduck]

[Oh no Satou. Satou nooo.]

... Ya seemed awfully enthusiastic about it just a second ago.

[priceofmagic]

I-I was simply hoping we'd have things in common, um... But I was mostly excited about spending time with Clover!

But if you would be more comfortable doing something else...?

[noluckduck]

... Hey, as long as ya don't hurt anyone, I'm cool with whatever ya wanna do.

[priceofmagic]

... Really?

[ She has a hard time believing that. ]

[noluckduck]

Yeah, sure. [She shrugs. As long as you're not killing anybody, Satou...]

[priceofmagic]

Then then! Someday! Let's go target practicing! Together, Clover!

[noluckduck]

... As long as you're sure ya know how to handle a gun, man.

[priceofmagic]

Yee~up! Mikale showed me how to! As long as I have a good gun, anyway.
