"Make a contract with me, and become a Puella Magi!"

After being approached by the strange creature, you made a contract with him and became a magical girl—a Puella Magi (or Puer for the guys). In exchange for having one wish granted, you must fight witches and collect Grief Seeds in order to keep your Soul Gem bright and clean!

But witch hunting is dangerous work -- do you have what it takes to walk the path of a Puella Magi?

1. Teamwork, go! You've got another Magi at your side and the two of you are working together to fight this witch!

2. Oh, err... you've stumbled into another Puella Magi's territory and they're not happy about it. Get your dukes up and prepare to fight!

3. You're a newbie Puella Magi trying to find your way in the world. Lucky you've got a mentor who can teach you how it goes!

4. One minute everything's good and normal and suddenly the whole world is topsy-turvy—the fact that you're just a regular (and probably very confused) person isn't helping this whole trapped-in-a-witch-barrier situation you've found yourself stuck in at all, and you'd probably be toast if there wasn't this Magi here saving your butt!

5. You didn't think that things could be so serious, so hard in the life of a Magi—not until you both just had to watch a friend's gruesome death at the hands of a witch. What are you going to do now?

6. The awful truth has made itself known. You have discovered, in some way or another, that your Soul Gem actually contains your soul and now your body is little more than a meat puppet. It's okay to cry.

7. This is it; the end. You or your friend have fallen into despair and the awful truth has made itself known—Puella Magi mature into witches. You have become a witch.

8. You may have heard stories of this witch but never thought it could be so powerful. The Walpurgis Night is here and devastating your city, and you are the one who has to stop it.

[ None of Mandya's arguments have been enough to convince him no to make the contract. So he's made up his mind. He's going to ask Kyubey what exactly the contract entails. And then he's going to make the contract. He still believes that he is not enough. ]

I'm still not convinced, Mandya.

[polygraphing]

[ she looks only mildly upset, but that's about the limit to what she can bring herself to do right now ]

Then how can I convince you?

[notyouraigis]

You could try explaining why you don't want me to contract. Besides the obvious reasons, of course. But, honestly, I'm not sure if even that will convince me.

[polygraphing]

[ she pauses only briefly ]

Because I don't want you to die like I will.

[notyouraigis]

Stupid. What the hell am I supposed to do if you die?

[polygraphing]

Not be dumb like me. Do something cool with your life.

[ she pauses again, trying to find the right words ]

Live enough for both of us.

[notyouraigis]

I'm not sure I can. I think I've forgotten how to do this whole "living" thing without you and Bharal.

[polygraphing]

You'll remember. I mean, you managed before, didn't you?

[ shrugs a bit at that. disregards the fact that her life was kinda shit before she met eighis and bharal ]

[notyouraigis]

Easier said than done. I'm not really the same person I was back then.

[polygraphing]

[ she looks down at her feet. its hard to make herself keep caring about eighis and his fate, everything she's become since the contract keeps telling her that none of this really matters. but there's some little part from before that keeps poking at her and stops her from just giving in to what he says ]

Then change again. But don't die. If you die too then nothing I did meant anything.

[notyouraigis]

[ Eighis is silent for a short while. He has to get the screaming in his head to stop before he can reply. ]

It is not that easy.

[polygraphing]

I never said it would be easy. But it's what I need you to do now.

[ she moves as if to grip at her skirt, but then her hands go limp, as if she couldn't quite summon up the energy to do so ]

Please?

[notyouraigis]

[ And it's again with the bitter, humorless laughter. There's a bit of an off-kilter note to it this time. The idea of Mandya dying is enough to drive him a little mad. The idea of even trying to proceed as if everything is normal and okay after she does die is enough to send him flying off the deep end. ]

Impossible. It'd be fucking impossible. You know damn well that's what I meant.

[polygraphing]

[ she thinks that normally she'd probably be getting mad by this point, but she's just.... not. she does still feel something though, something that wants him to be ok ]

Eighis, just. Promise me you'll try, at least.

[notyouraigis]

[ Is that more laughter coming from Eighis, or is it sobbing? What ever it is, it sounds like it could be both. What he says next is murmured more to himself than to Mandya. ]

It's fucking impossible...
