Anon Text Question - [aka how do I do that fancy text font but whatevs]

[allforthem]

Alright, I've got a question for all of you. What does it take to become a Bounty Hunter in Genessia..and a skilled one at that?

I am thinking about becoming one just because I feel that I will be most effective in that field rather than just being..at my old job.

Also, I don't know how a friend would feel or think if I joined those ranks...sooooo....

Yeah!

Persistence, good fortune, and a high tolerance for boredom.

[Given the people who do well at them despite no experience him included, when he started out, he doubts skill has anything to do with it.]

And a sizable social circle for those impossible on one's own.

[fairysoul]

Ask you friend to be your partner. That should reassure them.

Re: [Anon Text]

A social circle? For being a Bounty Hunter?

Aw..then I'll have to raise more money for it then. Do you work as one?

[allforthem]

What? Noooooo..my friend is the most passive fighter and would condone this. She's more of a humanistic sort of kind, and my other friend well..

...she wants me to go back to school here.

Like I would ever do that.

Yes. One must make contacts and occasionally grease a few hands to expedite things.

I do. It can be tedious, patient work.

[Fun fun fun!]

[fairysoul]

If you accept her the way she is, she should be able to accept you for who you are too. Friendship is not about changing people, it's about sharing.

Or you could make a deal: you'll go back to school if she comes bounty hunting with you when you don't have school.

[allforthem]

What's your name?

Could I learn from you? Like an apprentice? I'll do anything you want if it'll make me a better warrior of justice.

[allforthem]

Mmmmrrrrg..

That's..a good point. And Mami is such a great fighter, she'd be so great at bounty hunting with me. Madoka though..

See, the thing with her is that she gets so worried about us all. Plus, I really really don't see her in..hunting others? I don't think Mami will either..

[Private to anon - because why not]

[fairysoul]

You're a friend of Mami's and Madoka's?

They seem quite open-minded to me.

[She knows who you are now 'Sayaka Miki' but she won't point it out.]

Are you a magical girl too?

[Oh-so anon]

[youfool]

Before that, there's two things I'd like you to provide first.

1. Your age.
2. A definition of "justice"

[anon but private holy crispy!!!]

[allforthem]

They are, but they worry about me..

Uh-I mean, if you know they're magical girls then yes! I am one too..

[this has become super duper spooky]

Re: [Oh-so anon]

[allforthem]

Uh-well age shouldn't matter!

[says the 14-year old zombie]

-And justice is when you are trying to do good for others! In my case, and my talent, it's protecting the cities and towns from witches, criminals, in order to save others. Isn't that what you call justice?

Re: [Oh-so anon]

[youfool]

[And that tells him she's probably somewhere around the age of "not enough". He'd press on that point, but there's another more fundamental. He's confident she'll flunk there.]

No; I abide by its true meaning: giving what one deserves, be that weal or woe. Desert is pivotal to its definition.

Will you accept that?

[anon but private but duper spooky]

[fairysoul]

I know they are. They told me.

My name is Mavis. I'm not sure we've spoken before.

Re: [anon but private but duper spooky]

[allforthem]

Hm..

I guess if they did tell you, they like you. Especially with Mami-san.

Well nice to meet you Mavis! Don't think we have. Are..you a Magical Girl too or?

Re: [Oh-so anon]

[allforthem]

[she wasn't sure, she really wasn't. Sayaka agreed in the sense that they deserved everything they got depending on the crime- no wait]

No, because I will only be a bounty hunter, and what the city or town wants to do, I will abide.

But that doesn't mean that if they fight back, I'll give them a fight they won't forget. No one messes with me!

Re: [Oh-so anon]

[youfool]

So which do you seek to become? "Only a bounty hunter" or a "warrior of justice"? They're exclusive.

Re: [Oh-so anon]

[allforthem]

[She caved and stood her ground]

Fine. Warrior of Justice, and if that's what it takes to protect others, then so be it! That's all I want, just for everyone to be protected and safe..

Re: [Oh-so anon]

[youfool]

In that case, bounty hunting would only waste your time. It has naught to do with justice.
