[ the video clicks on to Cure Princess...however, considering that Hime's voice doesn't change in her superhero form and she was dumb enough to have her community identification say her real name and superhero id on it, feel free to connect the dots. Also, for people who have seen Cure Princess before, she looks a bit...weird. In the sense that this isn't her normal superhero outfit. and also, in the sense that occasionally that outfit fades away and is replaced by her normal, blue and black magical girl duds. Princess hasn't seemed to notice that just yet.

anyway, she's in a side room while frantic Porter techs talk and scamper around the background and Princess is just grumpy ]

This is so stupid! I go home for a day or two, then I come back here, and now they won't let me leave! The people who run the Porter are just...they're just...so mean!

[ grumpy huff and grumpy sniffle. a pause, and oh yeah, something she needs to ask the people. ]

Oh hey, what's 'conflicting surges of energy' mean? One of these guys, [ pointing to a Porter tech ] said something about it and that's why I'm still here and why these meanies haven't let me go home yet.

[ ooc: this is the start of the magical girl plot!. the plot will run until the 15th, and everybody can join in! if people are accepted after today/before the 15th, feel free to join in/toss your dude in as well. :) ]

Too simple a question...no context, no details, no answer.

But hypothesis...your existence conflicts with the porter now...perhaps it will erase you.

video;

[friendshiprocks]

I don't have context or details, mostly cause nobody's telling me anything. [ but...she's actually believing Courtney ]

...you really think I'll get erased?

[ahanalyzing]

Insufficient data...however...

[...]

Maybe.

[That's the best she can do, sorry.]

[friendshiprocks]

[ that's not very reassuring for Hime, who....starts to whimper. ]

But I can't get erased! I've got so much to do here!

[ahanalyzing]

It is ...one of 553,120 possibilities, each of which... slim chance of occurring.

Hope.

[They won't let her leave? That's...suspicious. However those porter workers didn't seem particularly malicious when she met them, and things have been pretty calm so far. Maybe there's something wrong with her? Aside from that whole clothing display thing. She doesn't look weird, though. Hmm...]

...maybe you're radioactive?

[...how does she even know that word.]

[Video]

[friendshiprocks]

[ a very offended hmmph! ] I'm magical, not radioactive!

[Video]

[purseowna]

Are you always magical?

[Video]

[friendshiprocks]

Yep! [ and then she starts on what suspiciously sounds like a rehearsed introduction (it totally is) ] The blue wind dancing in the sky: Cure Princess!

[ STRIKE A POSE. ]

[Video] Are you ready for the dumbest thing I've ever written in my life (1/???)

[purseowna]

[Now there's something you don't see every day. Yet there was something...familiar about that saying.]

That's...kinda cool.

[Marie looks down at her communicator for a moment. She stares at it curiously, gripping it tightly before...]

The screaming of my pathos demands to be heard... Transform!

[Now obviously nothing is going to hap-]

[Video] (2/???)

[purseowna]

[EXCEPT NOPE something is definitely happening. Cue magical girl transformation sequence that may or may not show up set to this. When the obnoxiously bright light finally fades, Marie's wearing something completely different. Her entire outfit was entirely replaced by frilly white shirt, cravat with broach, red skirt, gloves and boots. In addition her hair seems to have gotten longer and she's no longer wearing her hat.

Despite this she doesn't seem to have noticed the change, and is instead striking a pose.]

The burning passion of my chilly heart: Cure Tsundere!

[Video] DONE

[purseowna]

[...and with that done, she immediately seems to have snapped out of it and is instead gawking at her new outfit. Her face is also red as a beet. Also screaming. That's a thing.]

W-w-what the hell is this?! And why did I just call myself that?!

[video]

[yatagarasu]

[The voice seems familiar, but the appearance...not so much. Hmm.]

What? Did the Porter finally crack from all the people shuttled to and fro?

[video]

[friendshiprocks]

Kay! [ and then Hime gets a look on her face that's pure WAIT SHIT, I SHOULDN'T HAVE SAID THAT. ] I...ah...erm...

[ HIme is trying and struggling and FAILING to maintain a grasp on her secret identity. Whoops. ]

[video]

[yatagarasu]

[Well then...she squints at Hime. The face is ringing a bell, and now that she knows that this other girl knows her...]

...You look familiar...

[video]

[friendshiprocks]

No I don't! I don't look familiar at all! I'm Cure Princess and certainly not somebody that you know from here! [ she REALLY SUCKS at secret identities. ]

[video]

[yatagarasu]

[Blink blink.]

If you didn't know me, the first thing you'd say to me definitely wouldn't my name, right...?

video;

[unbreaker]

[Yeah, somebody's connecting those dots...]

Does that mean you're not gonna be home for dinner?

video;

[friendshiprocks]

Probably not. You'll have to bug Shade for— [ OH SHIT, WAIT, NO, BACK UP. ]

That is, I wouldn't be home for dinner if you knew me! Which you don't!

video;

[unbreaker]

...wow, it really does sound like total bullshit.

[That kind of lie, he means. He pulled the same stunt with Jolyne. No wonder she was pissed.]

video;

[friendshiprocks]

[ siiiiiiiigh. ]

I'm really no good at this sort of thing back home. I don't know why I thought I'd be better at it here.

[daimeinashi]

If they had any hand in your return at all, it is unlikely malice would be the reason for keeping you here.

[SUP HIME did you miss this loser.]

video;

[friendshiprocks]

[ hey there crazy war bro. ]

According to other people, it's more incompetence than malice.

video;

[daimeinashi]

Precisely. They cannot be "mean" for disallowing you to leave, if they are not capable of returning you in the first place.

video;

[friendshiprocks]

Still, them not telling me anything about why I'm still here is definitely mean.
