"So is there time now to go find these mages or will that have to wait?"

She shakes her head. "There's been one or two poking their noses around, but I don't know how to find any quick-like."

Permalink

"Ah well." The boogieman might know. Worth asking later.

Permalink

"For now - anything to eat or drink?"

Permalink

"That would be lovely, thank you."

She's a good cook, and is fairly talented at gauging people's likes and dislikes, so something that's at a minimum inoffensive will soon be produced.

Makoto's not hard to please in this regard.

"This is delicious."

Permalink

"Thank you dear. Now, do you have plans for what you'll be doing while you're here?"

Permalink

"Well, it sounds like there are a lot of problems. Monsters and so forth. If I can get my magic sorted, I'd like to help with that."

Permalink

"Good. We're always understaffed, it seems..."

Permalink

"I know how that goes. It's so hard to find good people."

Permalink

"Hopefully you'll be able to do some good, here."

Permalink

"It's been a while since I wasn't mostly management. I'm looking forward to it."

Permalink

"What do you manage, if I may ask?"

Permalink

"A sort of magical girl union. Making sure everyone had the resources they needed and enough help and so forth."

Permalink

"Good. I'm somewhat in charge of the Nannies, but, well... They don't really answer to me."

Permalink

"That sounds difficult," Makoto says sympathetically.

Permalink

"Usually we're able to manage ourselves. It's been... Fairly rare, that something big enough to demand large-scale cooperation has come up."

Permalink

"Has the situation changed recently?"

Permalink

"There's been - a lot of activity lately. More Horrors passing by than there should, a rash of windigos, poltergeists, and assorted demons and monsters have seemed agitated."

Permalink

"Some sort of gathering? A celestial alignment? A summoner? What's the hypothesis space look like?"

Permalink

"Unfortunately broad. The gods used to get up to shit like this before they were locked out. There's also powers - particularly old boogiemen or windigos or what have you, who can sometimes exert influence. Sometimes simply people being afraid is enough to start a cascade."

Permalink

"Has it been getting worse?"

Permalink

"The fear? I think it has, but - it's hard to trace cause and effect, there."

Permalink

"Lots to investigate."
