Then there's Kyouko-chan. We didn't always get along, but Kyouko-chan made me realize that - sometimes people just need extra time and care, and they can be your friend, too. She's really strong, and much kinder than she seems.
There used to be a lot of competition for... Resources. Between magical girls. So a lot of times they would claim territory for themselves, which meant fighting between each other happened a lot...
The first time we met Kyouko-chan, she wanted to take over the area we were in.
[ There's no way Nonon can sugarcoat that or make it sound pretentious. To prey on the emotions of girls like that is unforgivable. It makes some kind of sense, but that doesn't make it any less unforgivable. ]
[ Madoka looks through the CDs and eventually settles on some generic pop. her favorite music is "whatevers popular on the radio being played at a reasonable volume." ]
Mami-san was a magical girl before the rest of us, so she's the real veteran. She's smart and talented and beautiful, and a really good teacher!
[ Madoka's musical taste kills Nonon. She wrinkles her nose at the generic pop choice but doesn't say anything. She puts in her choice first and smiles to herself when Chopin fills the air.
She waves at Madoka to take a seat on the floor. ]
I'll paint your nails first. It sounds like you really looked up to her.
[ Nonon's hand is steady and sure as she puts on the first coat of polish on Madoka's nails. There's no hesitation in her strokes even when she accidentally pains skin. ]

Magical girls sure are wild. ]
Hey, Kaname. [ She's so baffled she's not using a dumb nickname. ] Why was the magical girl system from your world so corrupt.
no subject
[ in other words, a system designed for tragedy. ]

I can see why you wanted to fix it.

But I did the best I could.

Now, let's go the dance studio so we can listen to music, paint our nails, and you can talk about your last friend.
no subject
[ onward!! ]
The last one is Mami-san.
no subject
Tell me about her while we pick out music. You can pick a CD, and I will, too.
[ Three guesses to what genre of music Nonon chooses, and the first two don't count. ]

Mami-san is everything a magical girl should be. She really tries to take care of beginners and help us make smart choices.
no subject
She sounds like quite the senpai.

But she isn't as strong as she pretends to be, so I still worry about her a lot.
