[Satou is still standing in front of the holographic introduction when she switches her device on. A few things were made clear to her right away: This place has a concept of 'most powerful' and, very likely, an understanding of magic. So she shows no shame with her magic during the video.]

Good day, everyone. I'm guessing there must be a lot of people here like me, if you'd set up so many resources for us. [Her school uniform glows pink, then changes into a warm, black peacoat. The brunette taps the new necklace to her neck and creates a stylish choker for it to attach to. Her hand is shaking, but she wants to make her magic obvious.]

My name is Satou Kuroneko. I-I'm a witch. [Said as if to defend herself. She lets the camera sweep over a girlish pink staff, before continuing in as firm a voice as she can manage.] I'm not here to pick fights, so please don't start any. Um... Mikale. Shugo. Y-You're here, right? Or uh. I-I mean... H-How do I check if someone I know is here? Or, uh... um...

[Her attempt to introduce herself bravely is already faltering. Satou turns the camera back to her wand so she can wipe away her tears. Back to looking tough and calm..!]

I-I can help. My magic can be useful. I-I hope to b-be... um... nngh... What do I do...?

[The petite witch can later be found wandering the city, her wand now hidden from sight. As much as she wants to be a tough cookie who can be relied on, some might notice this kid occasionally stop to wipe her eyes and whimper into her palm.]

I'm all alone again... Mikky... Sh-Shooees... Dummieesss.

[With no bounties to do, Naoki had just been doing his usual walking about, trying to find something to do around here. Sometimes random things needed to happen. Spotting a young girl crying a bit, part of him couldn't help but be curious.

So hopefully she won't be scared by a glowing tattooed young man with a horn on the back of his neck suddenly right in front of her.]

You okay?

[priceofmagic]

Au-- Oh.

[She quickly tries to dab away her tears and smile. Girls who cry get taken advantage of, after all. Though she doesn't sense any malice in his approach.]

Y-Yeah, I'm fine. Just, uh... [sniff.] Crying, but I'll get over it. Sorry for the trouble.

[heavensmostwanted]

"Need a tissue then?"

[Don't mind a sudden Pixie fly from behind Naoki, offering a small box of them. Naoki didn't even have time to add anything.]

[priceofmagic]

... Yeah.

[She flinches a bit when she sees the Pixie, but doesn't comment. Her face is her priority, honestly. Satou is embarrassed to be seen like this.]

Tha-thank you. [sniff.] I-I'm not normally this emotional, sorry. I'm [hic] Sadou--- SATOU. Not sad... mrrgh.

[heavensmostwanted]

It's okay to cry. There's no shame in that.

[Kinda reminded him of when he finally snapped back into reality after fighting for so long.]

[priceofmagic]

[She shakes her head lightly.] N-No... I mean. Thank you, but no.

[Satou slaps her cheeks and puts on a tough face. Then stomps her foot down, free hand clenched.] Iiii am one tough cookie! Crying break is over! Genessia won't scare me, nope nope nadda! [Turning back to him, she beams.] Thank you, mister! Your kindness hath saved me~!

[heavensmostwanted]

Huh that was quick. [He shrugs.] No problem, kid. Hope things work out.

[priceofmagic]

Yes, siree bob man! I have it together!

[This girl does not have it together.

But she does not want to have a real breakdown in public.]

Other worlds aren't scary! Just a chance to meet new people, see new things, and gain new experiences! Yup yup~!
