action; mural
[ it's the cries of the skylarks that get her the most. noise unsettles her, any sort of it - it puts her on edge, and even though it's hard to tell, homura is ready for just about anything to strike. from atop the tower sits the princess, a damsel in distress, unaware of the dangers below and -
just jokin'.
when homura realizes that an unconscious madoka isn't in her arms and she doesn't know where she is, there's only one thing she can focus on. she doesn't waste time in transforming, because she has no reason to. there's a flash of purple light from the tower, and then a loud sort thumping, as if several metal things have just been spat upon the ground.
but if you investigate, you'll find her. a girl in a cream colored school uniform, tiny and pale, with long dark hair. she looks like she's searching for something, among the skies, the barest hint of frustration etched into her features. she's on the ground, away from the tower, because she has no business there. not anymore.
several feet away, in the grass, you might notice something of her's that's been dropped. maybe it's a dark headband, or maybe it's a ring, or maybe it's a packet of 9mm ammunition. either way, it's probably her's. maybe. ]

[ time stops.
there's really no denying that time isn't moving at all, that it's frozen by someone's will. furthermore, it's easy to tell something, at the very least, has happened, because the world is suddenly devoid of color. it still into a monochrome mess accented with the telltale ticking of a clock, a distant sound, as if coming from a specific clock. noise is easy to follow. a clock can be found if you know where to look.
above the water, on the island, inside a tower, you'd expect a princess. you'd expect someone who looks frail and afraid, a girl with a sweet but elegant air that she was taught to carry. instead, there's homura, standing in front of a massive dump of weapons. it's large enough to climb on top of and tower over... everything, arguably. maybe if you jump down and look, you can see the very top of it. it's not out of the question that he'd recognizes a few weapons; there's guns, bombs, rocket launchers: a plethora of items that look alarmingly dangerous.
and the supposed princess is slipping a pistol behind a shield. it's metal, and a pair of red ruby eyes are staring back in it.
the ticking is loudest here, but it's hard to pin down where it's coming from - but one thing is for certain, she probably shouldn't be moving if time is stopped. ]

It's October... That's new to me.
When I think about October, I remember there's a holiday centered around ghosts and things of that nature. I don't celebrate it, but I have seen it in foreign movies. :) Sometimes they sell candy and cakes themed after Halloween, I think it's called. Am I right? :?
I have a question. Something synonymous with things of that nature... it'd be a witch, wouldn't it?
What do you think of when you think of a witch? I'd like to hear your thoughts. :)
action; mural
[ homura is almost fascinated by the concept of a mural for those missing. presumed dead, perhaps, until further notice. it's alien, and surely a bit uncomfortable, but she's here for a specific name. it's hard to read her expression; you would be forgiven if you thought it rather void of emotion, in fact. she doesn't show any of her frantic thoughts as she peers into the mural, though her fists are balled at her side.
eventually, homura speaks up. it's soft, airy - almost so lightly spoken that it gives the impression she's ill, or doesn't speak much at all. there's a demanding tone to her voice. she's small, but her back is straight and her head is held high. ]
Madoka Kaname.
[ she peers up, still searching. maybe it's only a trick of the light, but there's something in her eyes that reflect pain, a hesitant sort of gaze as she looks away. ] Is that... a name you can see?

depends on the costume I guess? some witches are like, ugly and green. then some are cute little kids in frilly dresses with jack-o-lantern buckets. then some are supposed to be really sexy, but that's true with like. half of women's costumes really, so.
if you want to be a witch for halloween I say go for it? make it your own, do whatever.
no subject
Is that so? For me... It was April.
Ah
I don't have reason to dress up.
I was just curious what people thought of them is all. Everyone has different experiences with them.
A costume is something I am uninterested in.
no subject
oh are witches like an actual thing where you're from, then? all I know about is halloween witches. and movie witches, like in the wizard of oz.
well, there's a halloween party coming up, I'm pretty sure it's mandatory and costumes are required. sorry.
[ actual bs it is not mandatory and neither are costumes ]
no subject
The choice is made for us?
I see.
I will consider attending, then. [ but not dressing up? apparently? good god.
but now she will actually...show up... thanks magnus ]
no subject
yep.
if you don't show up URSULA puts you in the time out corner.
plus you won't get any candy, so.
[ there is no time out corner magnus is a Liar ]
no subject
I'm not much one for candy.
You can keep my share.
no subject
nah you can give it to the actual kids here. there's a few running around.
[ "actual kids" apparently doesn't include the 40 teenagers like magnus and homura ]
no subject
Ah, I see.
That sounds dangerous.
Children shouldn't eat too much candy.
Perhaps they should stay away from the large predators in the ocean, as well.
no subject
you're right, we don't have any dentists for when they get cavities.
actually I'm not sure we even have sugar. someone should check on that before halloween.
but if they get eaten by ocean creatures we can probably just cut moby dick open to rescue them. or ask percy to politely ask the fish to spit them up.
no subject
I was not aware he was capable of speaking to fish.
He's considering Aquaman for a costume, I hope.
[ she can joke when she wants to, apparently!! or rather when she's trying to be cute on public boards? ]
