Madoka Kaname has posed:
    It's evening and Madoka can be found in the Infinity University dorms. It's not a place she often goes since both her and her closest friends live off campus within walking distance of the school, but today she's here for a specific purpose. She had told Corvus that she would speak to Haruna today and try to cheer her up a little and even if she was speaking quickly in order to keep his magical nature a secret, not realizing that detail is probably one of the worst kept magical secrets in Tokyo.

    Madoka doesn't like to lie, and so here she is. She might have sought Haruna out during school, but they have no classes together, and 'Morning' seemed like a terrible idea given the aftereffects of alcohol; she's seen that enough times with her mother to know you don't go bugging people with hangovers without good reason.

    After looking up the student directory she's made her way to the door to Haruna's dorm room, pausing for just a moment to make sure she's at the right place before knocking on the door, though admittedly it's a little soft to be easily heard from any distance. "Haruna-chan? Corvus-chan?" she calls lightly to the door.

Haruna Kurosawa has posed:
There's a crash from inside the room! "Eek! A visitor!" there's sudden rushing around and a bunch of others sounds.

"Haruna-chan---I can't!...." says Corvus.

"Ahahahahaha!" comes a voice Maodka doesn't know. "Featherbutt TUG HARDER!"

Haruna opens the door with wide eyes. Behind her is a mess of a dorm room! Well. It's currently a mess. It doesn't 'look' dirty but all the furniture is being moved about and it looks like there's some sort of divider being installed in the ceiling and Corvus is trying to keep this up while some sort of---what can be described as a 'Shadow Raccoon' is kinda hanging off the other side and has some sort of hammer.

What the hell is going on here!?

"Ah----! Madoka-chan! Ah----! Hi!" she says flaililg. She tugs Madoka in as she peeks out the door and then shuts the door.

"Ah---sorry! We're just. Um. Renovating. I need another bed and stuff in here. Hi!" she says.

She stands back on a stool so she can help hold the divider back in place while the raccoon continues to nail it into the ceiling.

"Uh---so--sorry about. Last night..." she mutters. She's not able to relay the cuteness of Victory/Storm Knight because that technically hasn't happened yet!

"I thought it would be neat to cause some trouble---I mean...mischief n' stuff." she says lightly. "And I ruined everything it seems...." she mutters.

The raccoon jumps down and poofs the hammer away. "Man that was so /awesome/." he says to Haruna.

Corvus roooooools his eyes.

"WELL IT WAS FEATHERBUTT! YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO HAVE FUN ANYMORE NOW THAT YOUR STRAIGHT AND NARROW I THINK I LIKED YOU BETTER WHEN YOU WERE /EVIL!/." he says.

"Well. Maybe not---as---evil.. as... look." says the raccoon as he tries to explain.

"I have weird animal friends for some reason." says Harana apologetically.

Madoka Kaname has posed:
    Madoka has no idea what's going on in there so when the door opens up and it looks like a hurricane has swept through and tossed all the furniture about, (but not toppled it over!) she simply blinks a couple of times. It's long enough for Haruna to yank her inside before she realizes what's happening, letting out a squeak of surprise.

    She then shakes her head quickly, "Don't worry about it, Haruna-chan! At class today it sounded like everyone actually thought the party was better with it, though the teachers didn't really approve. I didn't end up drinking any anyway, so it didn't really affect me anyway." With a small giggle she adds, "I was really shocked you'd want to, though!"

    With a nervous look she kind of pokes her fingers together, "Besides, the craziest thing that happened last night had nothing to do with spiked punch..."

    Once the proper and important apology deflection is made she starts looking around the room with a tilt of her head, "Oh! You're making room for a second bed?"

    Seeing all the playful fighting going on it isn't all that hard to come to the wrong conclusion, "Did... you have a fight with Corvus-chan? Or, um Raccoon-chan?" She hasn't been properly introduced! Also it seems there isn't quite the scandal this time with the talking raccoon as there was when she first learned about Corvus.

    A quick shake of her head, "I don't mind, I have some weird animal friends too."

    Procyon probably wouldn't like Kyubey's version of mischievousness at all.

Haruna Kurosawa has posed:
Haruna Kurosawa blinks... raccoon-chan? Oh! "Um... Madoka-chan~ This is Procyon! He was like Corvus- except he's still in his tablet somewhere so this is kinda like a projection- so he might look a little scaryish but he's also nice!" she insists. "He's a little mischief maker thou~ He means well." she grins. "He's important to me as Corvus-chan is!" she says.

Procyon says. "Also I still have my demi-god status!" he says. "I'mmmmm Procyon! Demigod of Stripes and Guile and also Adorableness."

Haruna asides- stage whispers. "He gave himself the last title...~" she insists. Corvus nods matter of factly.

""Huh?...." she says with a blush. "Oh I heard. About the stuff. After I left. Someone acousted you!? And then some jerk got mad!?" she says. "oh..that wasn't my fault!? Oh---goo--good! I thought someone got drunk and...." she blushes.

"Nrg...okay. Good. I guess! Oh! Um..."

She sweeps the sheeted divider against the window as she nods matter of factly and begins trying to shove her bed on the other side of the divider. "Well..um."

"I----" she nrgs.

"It's hard to explain..." she murmurs. "My--um. We're going to save my sister soon...." she says.

"...and since theres a few days until that happens. I'm getting ready. But. Um. It'll be dangerous..." she says lightly.

"I might not come back... heh." she says gently.

Madoka Kaname has posed:
    Madoka offers the shadowy raccoon demi-god a quick but polite bow, "It's nice to meet you, Procyon-chan!" She'd have used a more deferential honorfic except for the fact he added 'Adorableness' to his list of godly traits.

    There's a bright blush of her own and she gives a quick shake of her head, "N-no! I wasn't accosted at all. Someone had asked me for a dance before the ball," Takashi Agera if the rumors are to believed, "and we kept dancing for more than just one, and..." she begins fidgeting and blushing a bit...

    "A-anyway! One of me friends is really protective of me," to put it lightly, "and thinks he's a big jerk. I'm... I'm not so sure, though. I thought he was a little odd at first. But everyone is a little odd in their own way, right? A lot of the time it's what makes people so fun to be around... but there was no punch involved!" she finally finishes in embarrassed manner.

    "Save your sister?!" Madoka asks with sudden urgency, taking a step closer to Haruna, "Is your sister in trouble, Haruna-chan? If it's dangerous... is there anything I can do to help?" Suddenly her demeanor has changed from flustered embarrassment to earnest worry and compassion.

    'Might not come back.' She looks at Haruna for a moment or two without blinking before shaking her head, "That's no good, Haruna-chan. I don't know what this is about, but don't worry about not coming back. Instead say 'I'm going to save my sister, and we're coming back for sure!' Think of the good things that you can do, and make them happen!"

    Madoka leans forward a little, holding her arms expressively out and speaking with all her hopeless idealism, "You're a Magical Girl, Haruna-chan... I believe in you. So believe in yourself!"

Haruna Kurosawa has posed:
Haruna Kurosawa looks down. "No...I get that. I like someone people think is a big jerk too. I don't think it's going to work out thou... He's just...kinda handsome is all." she says. "But---nrg." she sort of crosses her arms in front of her. She doesn't seem to think longer on this.

She blinks. "I didn't tell you did I."

"...for two years I thought my sister was dead. But. She was... a Pretty Cure!--- and some jerk took her away to something called the Pretty Cure Graveyard...." she murmurs. "She's still alive just. Captured in a mirror." she says. "I did a lot of silly things when I thought she was dead."

Procyon chimes in. "That's putting it lightly~" he teases.

Corvus frowns and crosses his wings. "Be quiet. Like that tail is all fluff and no brain!" he insists.

Procyon just happens to now be reading a notebook. It seems to be Madoka's drawing notebook. Where'd he get that. "This is neat." he says.

Haruna snatches the notebook and huffs! She peeks into the notebook and head tilts. "Huh..." she blinks "Is this your art, Madoka-chan?" she asks and flips through the notebook. Did Madoka even have her notebook on her!? Well It's here now and in Haruna's hands! Demi-gods are weird.

She smiles. "I'm not going alone... Cure Victory and Cure Boost are coming with me--- so is Miss White-chan and lots of others!" she beams. "I know we can do it. Just. This place is--- Blue-sama says that it's despair and misfortune filled. It means a lot of us aren't going to be as powerful as we should be...."

Madoka Kaname has posed:
    That draws a bit of a giggle from Madoka, "I think in my case he's the one that's interested, but... I've never had anyone talk to me the way he did the other night." At least not with the kind of undertones she noticed- or made up?

    She then gives a shake of her head since she had not, in fact, heard Haruna's story. This is one of the downsides to not being an actual magical girl; a lot of the interesting things people learn on the battlefield remain complete unknowns to her.

    She listens to the story and then says softly, "That's horrible, Haruna-chan. But... I'll be thinking of you and your Pretty Cure sister." She wants to say there's something she can do to help save her, but in her heart she knows right now there isn't. So instead she'll stick for helping Haruna in the only way she knows how- stepping forward and giving her a close hug!

    It's not super long since she has noticed the older girl's social awkwardness and isn't quite sure how much that relates to hugs but she can't quite help herself entirely.

    Suddenly Procyon is looking at her notebook, and then Haruna snatches it away. "W-w-wait! That isn't ready yet!" she cries out in surprise. It's too late, though, and Haruna gets a peek inside.

    There's all kinds of Magical Girls and Boys drawn inside, from Tuxedo Mask, to Miss White, to Tessen, to Cure Gull herself! It's all done in a near-chibi style with the clothes drawn to near perfection, but the faces silly with some rather odd solid black eyes. Actually, it's just about every magical girl or boy that Madoka's ever seen! There's also a picture of a girl with a familiar twintail hairdo and a floofy pink, white, and yellow dress...

    Back on the subject of going to save Haruna's sister she does her best to hold back the embarrassment of her red face as she says, "It sounds like it will be even more important for you to rely on each other, then. I'm glad you'll be going with so many people you trust, Haruna-chan."

    She's about to continue but all of a sudden her phone rings. There's a short conversation including, "She is?" and "I'll be right there!" from Madoka, and she smiles apologetically to Haruna. "I'm sorry; I meant to stay and talk with you longer, but my mom is coming from home work early tonight and my dad is making us all dinner." Early? The sun has been down for hours?! "We don't usually get dinners together, so it's an occasion!"

    She steals another quick hug before seeing herself back out of the apartment, "It was nice seeing you again, Haruna-chan!"

    Oh no, in her rush she forgot her notebook!

Haruna Kurosawa has posed:
Haruna Kurosawa blinks... she blushes and goes to say something and then...

"Oh! That's important! Go Madoka-chan!~" she says with a beaming smile... she peeks down at the notebook. Huh. She taps her chin....

Then she blinks. "Oh!------" she races out into the hallway... "Madoka-c------" she huffs. "urk. She's gone! How is she so quick!" she huffs. She walks back in and closes the door. Another time~
