[Video] Day 175 ♦ First Leap
[A young teenage girl with long dark hair appears on the network dressed in the compulsory jumpsuit, her face rather well composed for someone who just turned up in a prison on another planet of all places. Maybe she's really not disturbed. Or maybe she's just really good at hiding it. But she's certainly hiding any hint of emotions about it.]

I'm going to go ahead and guess that no one knows a way out of here.

[She pauses, closing her eyes briefly, taking a breath in and releasing it. Her violet eyes reopen.]

My name is Homura Akemi. I'm looking for a Madoka Kaname. If anyone has any information on her presence here or otherwise, please let me know. Your help is most appreciated. [She gives a curt bow.]

[With those few words, the video ends. The less she has to worry about unnecessary, uninformative chatter at the moment, the better.]

((OOC: Going to be slow, it's my final week here.))

	It's nice to meet you, Akemi-san! I'm Sakura Kinomoto. [she smiles] What does she look like? I could help you look for her. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	[There's no attempt at even faking a smile in return right now, Homura's mind too preoccupied with dealing with this obstacle that came hurdling into all her carefully laid plans. Distant civility instead is her little effort put into this.] She's about 150 centimeters tall, pink eyes, pink hair most likely in pigtails. Around the same age as me.

	Okay! I'll do my best to try and find her then. [she wouldn't want Tomoyo-chan to here all on her own after all. come to think of it, the girl on her screen looked kind of like Tomyo] Do you have anyone else you're looking for too? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Alright. [Really? She wants to ask, but thinking about people you might want to find when there might be no chance of them being feels terrible so.] Oh, do you have any questions? I haven't been here very long, but I was in the last prison for a while before the move. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Some of us used to be in Marina Asylum. It looks like this one, except I think it was a little smaller. The warden was different too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] timelesspromise 2012-07-14 01:38 pm UTC (link)
	So there are more than one of these. [A brief pause. More information is necessary if she's going to be facing off not only one prison determined to incarcerate her, but potentially more.] What do you know about these wardens, Sakura Kinomoto-san? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] sakurangel 2012-07-15 02:55 am UTC (link)
	I just met them yesterday, so I don't know a lot. [apologetically!] Conscienti is very helpful and...Veridical is too, except he can be a little mean. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] timelesspromise 2012-07-15 03:03 pm UTC (link)
	I see. [Not real helpful. But a young girl like this is probably not used to working around problems or fighting enemies.] What of the earlier prison's wardens? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] sakurangel 2012-07-23 06:24 pm UTC (link)
	[brightens at that question] Sentience was really nice! She was my friend. She was the first warden, but then she was replaced by Acumen. Acumen... Well, Veridical reminds me of Acumen. They're both strict. But then, Sentience took back control! We helped her fight against Acumen. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[So there have been coups in the past, in the other prison. It's a possibility here too. Homura's head tilts slightly at that insight.] Then are they humans too, like you, Sakura Kinomoto-san? (Reply to this) (Parent)

[QB woke up nauseated and headachey in a way that suggests space-time shenanigans, or the residual memory of its effects, making him less inclined to pay attention to the network and more inclined to try and find a bush to lay down beneath.]

[But that broadcast certainly catches his attention.]

[He remembers, like it was only minutes ago, Homura in a very difficult position. And now she's here, like it never happened. Maybe it hadn't happened, yet.]

[Hmmm. Consider yourself stalked, Homura Akemi.]

	[video] promoted_pawn 2012-07-10 09:15 pm UTC (link)
	[She shakes her head.] No, nothing like that. Your best course really is to just ask around, or wait and see if she answers. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] timelesspromise 2012-07-11 01:58 pm UTC (link)
	[Waiting, of course she can do that. She has all the time in the world if it comes to that. And yet it's harder to sit around and wait without doing something. But if Madoka is not here, then her objective is clear. As soon as she can find her way out...] [Flat as ever.] I see. Thank you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[video] promoted_pawn 2012-07-11 04:40 pm UTC (link)
	Of course. [But since PM takes Homura's reactions as sadness instead of Ice Cold Badassery, she pushes a bit, gently.] Is she your friend? I know it can be difficult to get by without them... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	timelesspromise 2012-07-12 09:12 am UTC (link)
	I'll be fine. [She should in any case. It's been long since she last had Madoka's shoulder to cry on, any friend's shoulder. It's not something she wants to burden the girl with anymore, even if she could.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	promoted_pawn 2012-07-14 02:47 am UTC (link)
	Alright. [And PM will believe that, because she pretty much has no reason not to.] If I hear from her, I will let you know. --oh, and since you introduced yourself, my name is PM. The Prospitian Monarch. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If anyone you know's around, they'll probably respond here. The network is at least useful like that. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	timelesspromise 2012-07-11 01:32 pm UTC (link)
	I would expect so. [It's the main reason she broadcast this, after all, to see if Madoka would react. But so far nothing.] Thank you for the tip. [Though it's a rather flat thanks.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	timelesspromise 2012-07-13 01:20 pm UTC (link)
	It's doubtful she's even here. [She doesn't belong in prison. She's far too kind for even back home.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	alsohope 2012-07-18 10:10 am UTC (link)
	I'm sorry. It sounds like at least you're already on the lookout. [Best that can be done all things considered.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	timelesspromise 2012-07-26 08:45 am UTC (link)
	[Always on the lookout.] Yes. I do what I can. I suppose the wardens do not make their records available, do they? [She'll find out something useful one way or another.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	alsohope 2012-07-30 08:10 am UTC (link)

	timelesspromise 2012-07-30 09:23 am UTC (link)
	I see. Then things have changed a fair bit with them. [She's already been able to get a bit of information on the new situation from Sakura at least.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	alsohope 2012-07-31 10:30 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, it's a little on the unpredictable side. I guess you heard about it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	timelesspromise 2012-08-01 07:33 am UTC (link)
	[Homura makes a slight nod, in no other way changing her expression.] A young girl mentioned the change. Sakura Kinomoto-san. [Maybe girls her age were common here. Or maybe they're rare. But certainly the prison had no qualms about keeping her despite being well below 20.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

2012-08-01 08:06 am UTC (link)

Gotcha. Probably a good person to hear that from, actually... I think she's one of the people who was around in the old prison a while. [Steph remembers talking to Sakura way back when she herself first arrived even, and how that helped her not freak out as much later on at all these kids that end up here...

Still, sheesh.]

Anyway, if it might help you find out more about your friend, bugging a warden might be still worth a shot.
