While I have been on hiatus from ao3 (and still am), I wanted to share the beginning excerpt from my series’ oneshot collection! Apologies to my readers for not having a lot of Argenti content, but once book 1 of the oneshot collection is finished, I’ll resume posting!

[resplendent-chungus]

"You're heartless," Sayaka chokes out, like the act of speaking physically hurts her. Homura wishes she was right.

Finished up a lil PMMM oneshot despite it being like five years since I wrote anything for them. Enjoy!

[atamascolily]

pmmm oneshots by subject

Just for fun, I put together a guide for my Madoka Magica oneshots on A03, sorted roughly by subject matter/theme. All are 7K or less, most in the 1-3K range. This is not meant to be a comprehensive list and will probably be instantly out of date, but can still serve as a good general reference. Enjoy!

[nijigay]

hiiii :3 I noticed ur one (of a few) ppl who ships boniji on tumblr, and I wanna know if you know any accounts/artists who ships them so I could follow them to satiate my boniji fixation >.< Also, some bocchi x nijika questions I wanna personally ask: what songs do you recommend that reminds you of them? Also, what are some boniji fanfics you recommend/like? I probably already read most of their fics but I wanna know what others like. Lastly, ur personal boniji headcanons if you don't mind sharing... 👉👈

I only ask blogs rarely cuz I'm shy so no need to answer immediately...

I'm just brainrotting over boniji so much! im so normal about them (◔‿◔)

AWAWAWA i love boniji like so much like too much like its become my main personality trait!

but youre right!!! it feels like boniji fans are mostly japan natives and there dont seem to be many english speaking boniji fans! ohhh i wish there was more of a following! imagine a boniji zine in the west! i would pay money to get involved with that

im kind of embarrassed about shoving my ships in ppls faces all the time and this might get long and its just me like rambling about my OTP so like .. gona put it under a read more lol. seriously this post is like almost 2k words long thats longer than my average fanfic chapter

i hate to be a shill but im going to be a shill for my fic recommendations:

ive been working on a lowkey corny boniji hanahaki fic on AO3 and some other oneshots, so maybe you would be willing to check my own stuff out?? (if u want .-. im really amateur with this stuff despite being an art student lol) its been on hiatus for like half a year but im just adhd af and keep restarting. im still working on it frequently tho and im secretly hoping to start updating on a consistent basis soon. but i also liked fics like "Midnight and Daydreams" and "Bubblegum Detergent" and "A Sellout Night" and "Just Enough to be Enough" and "A Kiss is Not A Cure". MANNN i remember that last one fucked me up bad when it was posted. it was only the second ever dedicated boniji fic and like I LOVE angst but with how small the sample size of fics was at the time it was like AUFHAUIJKADGF. all those fics are super super good though! i also love the third one, i love the trans bocchi HC personally

umm as far songs songs tho, i guess the ones i associate with boniji most are:

"veil" by keina suda, i remember drafting some animatic for an angsty AU of Hitori living on post-Kessoku

"STEP&CLAP" by yoshino aoyama (aka yoppi aka bocchis VA <3), i think yoppi making the song speaks for itself but its a rly cute song and i love thinking of Hitori and Nijika like tap dancing to it?? check out the rest of yoppi's debut album too!! her voice is so pretty and i was so happy finding out that there are 11 songs with her voice, instead of the 1 from the anime

idk why but i also think of them a lot when listening to PMMM's ost by yuki kaijuri, like "desiderium" and "not yet" and "mada dame yo"? these r kinda a stretch though but idk!!

i also like compiling music that reminds me of them into spotify playlists, if youd like some inspiration for your own! this one and also this angstier one

i have a lot of boniji headcanons but i feel like its hard for me to like list them all in one spot because they usually come to me with context during relevant conversations?? but ill list whatever i can think of!:

this ones not necessarily boniji but i was thinking about it like an hour ago, but i really like the idea of Seika being a huge boniji supporter. like in the source material she already finds Bocchi really cute, so I get the impression she would really like to be an older sister figure for Bocchi (and probably gets jealous of Kikuri for holding that spot in Bocchi's life lol), and so Nijika being a potential love interest for Bocchi would make Seika double down hard on supporting boniji. she'd probably be the one who brings Bocchi up to Nijika more than Nijika would bring her up to Seika?? i also like to imagine that for Seika she has a similar complex to Yoyoko. but instead of "Bocchi is stealing my spot as Hiroi's younger sister figure," it would be "Kikuri is stealing my spot as Bocchi's older sister figure" LOL . if that makes any sense at all

this ones actually taken from a japanese twitter user, but they moved on from boniji after the anime ended. but they had some headcanons that REALLY stuck with me. my favorite was the idea that Bocchi and Nijika both have inferiority complexes with one another. iirc their (translated) words were along the lines of "Bocchi thinks of Nijika as a pure, comforting light in her life, one that could be muddied if Bocchi got involved with her. On the other hand, Nijika thinks of Bocchi as a reliable hero who outshines an ordinary girl like her." i just REALLY like it. it also reminds me of this conversation that Yoppi and Suzushiro had on the BTR podcast, about Bocchi and Nijika's first meeting! like nijika literally brought light into Bocchi's life awdsfsgdhgfjh

actually that same user above also made a tweet that is the reason why i associate Keina Suda's "veil" with boniji! they made a tweet about an AU idea, where, in the event that Nijika would ever pass away, Seika would give Bocchi her ribbon, which Hitori would wear from that point onwards as she continues to play music to honor Nijika's memory. they also suggested that in the opposite event of Hitori passing away, Nijika would possibly do something very rash out of despair but thats dark hahaha!!!!

i kinda think this goes without saying and i think its actually a fairly common HC for BTR characters in general, but I can definitely see Bocchi being trans

I like to imagine that shortly after Volume 2, Bocchi and Nijika would probably have another conversation

eventually, i'm sure if Bocchi and Nijika pursued a relationship that they'd eventually move in together (or like into the same room? if Kessoku Band had a sharehouse?), and since both Bocchi and Nijika tend to be minimalistic with their room decor, their shared room would again become filled with a ton of Ryo's clothes and items and instruments, like how Nijika's room at Seika's apartment is

i think they'd both end up being really touchy with each other, especially when nervous? Bocchi kind of already does this when she's in new places (eg bringing Kita to Shimokitazawa, or going to FOLT for the first time and being dragged by Nijika), but I think it would grow to them finding comfort with each other?

idk if this is necessarily a HC but i really like how Bocchi and Nijika emotionally support each other, even in source. Nijika is shown to have a really good read on Bocchi (to the point of Bocchi worrying that Nijika is actually a psychic), knowing Bocchi's common thought processes, and picking up from Bocchi's mother during her first visit to Kanazawa that karaage chicken can bring Bocchi out of her anxiety attacks, and seems to be the only character who actually comments on Bocchi's growth as an individual and actively tries to facilitate it; but she also doesn't lovebomb Bocchi with praise, striking what seems to be a good balance for pushing Bocchi but also being a reliable confidant for her too.

one of my favorite details from the anime that i really feel doesnt get talked about as often as it should is when Nijika finally notices that Bocchi is guitarhero! she definitely wasn't the first to notice (Seika noticed first, but it seemed like Seika only knew about guitarhero via Nijika. When she notices that Bocchi's playing sounds familiar, her thought process immediately goes towards wondering why Nijika isn't noticing, and then she just tells them to get back to work) but she was the first one that Bocchi admits it too. but my favorite part is how Bocchi says that she wanted to change and grow as a person before telling them the truth, and she says that she especially wanted to grow before Nijika in particular found out! its just really cute, i love how Bocchi was worried about disappointing Nijika. and i like how, after some growth, Bocchi's dream turns from "becoming popular" to "making Kessoku Band the best band it can be" which is like almost basically the same as Nijika's dream! and so it's really nice when Bocchi doubles down on that goal by not remotely entertaining the idea of leaving Kessoku Band, even when goaded by promises of popularity.

last headcanon! because i ran out of thoughts and just came up with this on the spot. but i also like the idea that as the years go on, Bocchi and Nijika in particular may kind of become more similar in personality. i mean, they'd definitely still be distinctly them, but i like to think that Bocchi would eventually start picking up more optimistic habits and stop grimacing all the time, while Nijika would eventually become a little more lax and not reflexively try to dismiss her own negative feelings via looking at the silver lining. i thought of that when Nijika kinda dismisses her family dynamics with her mother's passing and her father's neglect after Kessoku's first real performance, as well as Nijika seeming to admit after inhaling Bocchi Dust(?) during her and Kita's Kanazawa visit that some of her optimism is performative

ok another one Nijika seems to have her art skills commented on sometimes so i like to imagine she has doodles of Bocchi in her sketchbook (alongside everyone else but mostly Bocchi). like think of like Miles Morales drawing a ton of Gwen Stacy like that kinda deal but with Nijika drawing Bocchi. and like Bocchi finds the sketchbook and Nijika freaks out and Bocchi actually doesnt look bc she doesnt want to do something wrong. but then Ryo or Kita take it and look instead and then show Bocchi and Bocchi melts into a flustered puddle

wowwow this got long! sorry! i really mean it when im like OBSESSED with these two like i think ive thought about them on a daily basis ever since the episode aired where Nijika bought Bocchi a cola. isnt that cute, too!? she picked up on Bocchi's favorite soda so quickly! and her buying a box of energy drinks for Bocchi despite not understanding why at all! girlfriend behavior

i really really want to make more boniji content, i'd like to be more active in posting my fics and drabbles and drawings, someday soon. right now most of my boniji content is just illegible sketches in my sketchbook lol

also thank u so much for like sending this ask im like BEGGING internally all the time to be given the chance to talk about them! i dont think theyre like a rarepair or anything, especially with them seeming to be like the second most popular BTR ship in japan, but i do think that not many people talk to them in the english side of the fandom! theyre super super cute and have really good chemistry.

this entire post is probably like a total carwreck i hope its even readable

ill also use this post as an excuse to post my own HCs for a Kessoku Band's relations chart. it's a bonus for reading this far. i'm sorry for draining 22 HP from you with this brain dump

[silvermoon424]

Hey! I came across some pictures of Mami (from hourai's mami mangacap pfps) and I was wondering if you knew where they were from? All I can make out is the rebellion hanokage art style, but I can't remember mami ever wearing this in any of the Rebellion manga, it's ok if u don't know tho!! ♡♡ hope ur having a better day today :)

I don't recognize this from an official manga!! It's definitely Hanokage, though. My guess is that this comes from one of the oneshot stories Hanokage did for Manga Time Kirara Magica, which was an entirely PMMM-focused magazine that ran for several years. Kirara Magica featured a lot of manga and Hanokage did several oneshots for the publication.

[acaciapines]

good news: finished the pmmm daemon au whooo! (also known as ‘wow this 10k oneshot is a 70k multichapter fic hahah oops’)

bad news: so theres no way i reread all of the owl house stuff i wrote before tomorrow

[yarrayora]

I'm a little confused with the true stray god's timeline. According to school nurse shirota sensei, all quirks came from the djinn that burst out of st Germaine. But stray gods has the abilities come from supernatural sourcesnwith actual deities involved. If you don't mind, could you explain?

school nurse shirota fanfic is deliberately modified to make it a self-contained oneshot without having to involve fandoms other than servamp and bnha, reframing the story with only servamp's magic as the context

in True Stray Gods Timeline it's basically Fantasy Kitchen Sink, or as tvtropes explain it, every myths are true even when they come from vastly different origins

by the way different but branching off of True Stray Gods Timeline is True Children's War Timeline, which involves KHR and Kekkai Sensen while Persona 5 and BSD are optional

I haven't even touched how Blue Exorcist and PMMM are essential for True Stray Gods Timeline

yes somehow im keeping tracks of them

[raidhosketchonhematite]

We kind of wanted to make a list of our more-or-less favorite characters in media, and then we really got it. So, radi hollowknight, chara undertale, sirin hi3, yaki kagepro, one dod3, angela lc/lor, theworldmachine oneshot, blackjack foe:ph, homura pmmm, mir_teiwaz_artonelico… notice a trend? They're all literally poor little meow meows! As in, interesting, underappreciated characters that committed atrocities and got their revenge, but ultimately are more for it. Honestly, it's probably because they have sacrificed, have devoted themselves, are genuinely interesting, and might even get their happy ending, at least in our thoughts. ...Heh.

Dare

I wrote a sad KyoSaya oneshot. 

There’s lots of angst. Sorry.

Sayaka slid into her desk chair with a sigh. “Ugh, schoolwork is so boring,” she complained to no one in particular. She opened the lid of her computer, and entered her password in a blur. She’d finished her homework with Madoka, time to scroll through tumblr and talk to people! She’d missed befriending strangers on the internet. And maybe Kyoko would be online.

It had seemed like her girlfriend was avoiding her, and their most frequent interactions nowadays were reblogging and liking each other’s posts on tumblr, and if Sayaka texted first, late nights spent talking for hours upon hours about nothing and everything. However, Sayaka eagerly snapped up even these snippets of conversation, when they forgot themselves and easily fell back into their old rhythms just as they did before Kyoko distanced herself. 

Her shoulders sagged as she opened Google and typed in tumblr. She took a breath and forced herself into her usual cheerful posture and smile. It’s fine, I’m fine, nothing’s wrong, I’m okay. It worked, at least for the time being. She shook her light blue hair over one shoulder. It was growing long in quarantine, and she quite liked it. Sayaka logged in to tumblr and was greeted by her familiar blue dashboard. She clicked the blue ‘create a post’ pencil and started recording a video. 

She grinned, letting go of her fears and worries and insecurities, and for a moment, she was actually fine. The grin slowly became more genuine as the camera started rolling. 

“Hey everyone, Oktavia here! Sorry it’s been a while since my last post, I’ve been really busy with school and stuff. As always, make sure to drop me an ask or DM if you have a request for what character I should draw next. The top three as of today are-” she consulted a piece of blank loose leaf paper, though her viewers didn’t know that. She’d committed the list to memory and the paper was just a prop. “They are… in third place, Keefe Sencen from Keeper of the Lost Cities, requested by an anon. Sorry anon, never read the series. I’ll look up some reference art and post the finished product by tomorrow night, though! Uraraka Ochako from My Hero Academia (requested by lilywritesfanfic is in second place, and I’ll livestream drawing her on Saturday. And finally, our first place winner- Spider-Man, requested by eva-the-demon07. I’ll post a drawing of him tonight! Have an absolutely incredible day, everyone! Bye!” she waved at the camera with one hand, then clicked post with the other. 

She slumped down in her chair, satisfied. Within seconds, comments started rolling in. We love you, Oktavia! Take as much time as you need, remember, you’re not obligated to draw for us. I love your drawings, but you’re more important, take care of yourself, okay? You’re amazing, Oktavia! 

Her need for validation filled, she clicked over to Kyoko’s blog and was greeted with several new posts. Her cell phone lit up with a text just as she was clicking on the first one. Sayaka groaned and picked it up. There was a new text from Kyoko and two new ones joined it on her screen. She tapped on them immediately. Kyoko had written ‘idk how to break up with people properly ive never done it before but im breaking up with u’ and then ‘i dont love u anymore’ and then ‘theres someone else’. 

Kyoko was breaking up with her? There was ‘someone else’?

“Are you kidding me?” she didn’t realize she said it out loud until she heard it. “There’s someone else? Just how long has this ‘someone else’ been someone else?” she snarled at her phone, tossing it onto her desk. 

Sayaka flopped onto her bed, shocked. A tear leaked out of her eye and she angrily swiped it away. She lifted her right hand, seeing her bright blue Soul Gem growing dark with sadness and bitterness.  

A knock on her bedroom door came.

“Come in,” she said listlessly. She made no effort to sit up or disguise the fact that she was crying. A red-haired girl with a ponytail stepped into the room, her usual bravado tinted with slight shame. 

“What the hell do you want?” Sayaka stood up, the venom in her voice surprising her. She stalked over to Kyoko.

 “Just hear me out, Saya-” Kyoko started.

“I care enough about you that I will. But after that, get out of my life forever,” Sayaka snapped. 

“It was a dare!” Kyoko burst out. “It was a stupid dare, just a game. I didn’t mean it.”

“You didn’t mean any of it.” The words came out hard and cold. “It was all just a dare. That makes sense- you never loved me. You were just playing with me for a year.”

“Saya- I wasn’t-” Kyoko clearly hadn’t meant for it to go like this. 

“Leave me alone, Kyoko!” Sayaka shouted, her voice breaking. “We’re done.”

Kyoko stumbled backwards in shock. “Wait, no! But Sayaka-”

“Just go! I can’t believe I fell for your act!” Sayaka ushered her out of the room and slammed the door. She braced herself against the inside of the door and slid to the ground. She opened her hand, revealing her previously bright Soul Gem a dark midnight blue. It was almost completely corrupted. 

Sayaka sighed with regret, and closed her eyes. She could feel her Soul Gem cracking, and when it shattered into a Grief Seed, she didn’t feel anything at all. 

“Kyoko,” she whispered. And then she fell to the floor.

On the other side of the door, Kyoko slammed the side of her fist against the wall. 

“Damn it,” she swore, anguish in every word. “Why did it have to go like that?” 

A witch’s labyrinth expanded through the door, and Kyoko gasped, swiveling around to stare at it. 

“Damn it! Sayaka!” she called. “Sayaka, can you hear me?” Receiving no reply, she transformed, and slammed the dull end of her spear against the door, and it collapsed inward painfully slowly. “Sayaka!”

She broke through the door at last. Sayaka was crumpled on the floor in front of it. 

“Sayaka, no! This can’t be happening.” Kyoko tentatively turned Sayaka over, noting the lack of Soul Gem. “No!” She knew what had happened. Sayaka had succumbed to despair and turned into a witch, and it was all her fault. 

Tears slid down her cheeks as she released Sayaka. 

“I love you,” she choked out. But it was too late.

The Last and First Step

(A Madoka Magica fanfic)

A chapter of Mami's life ends and she finds herself unable to move forward. No matter how much she reflects and muses, she remains rooted in place, paralyzed by a visceral ambivalence. [Mami-centric, existential angst, suicidal ideation, hurt/comfort, power-of-friendship]

Preview

Mami leaned back against the backrest of her couch, staring at her ceiling. The analog clock ticking on her wall said it was 13:31, which would have been fourth period on a normal school day, but graduating students had been given a week break. She was stuck with time she didn't know what to do with.

Normally, she spent what little free time she had on catching up on any school work she was behind on. Given that finals had just ended, she had none left. She also considered cleaning her apartment, but she'd already done so the previous week. Similarly, grocery shopping was also off the table because her fridge was still fairly well stocked.

The only other thing she did in her free time was bake—the closest thing to a hobby she had. And it would have been her first choice of activities too! Except…

She glanced at the two cakes shrink-wrapped on her kitchen table: a cheesecake and carrot cake, both virtually untouched save for the single slices she had indulged in yesterday.

A sigh.

She could bake, but it would be a waste to do so while two perfectly good cakes still lay uneaten. The only way she could justify baking another was if she invited Kyouko and Homura to a tea-party. Unfortunately, Homura was still busy at school and Kyouko was basically impossible to find until it was time to hunt. It would be hours before an opportunity to invite them presented itself—and even then, they might have still refused.

Or at least Homura might refuse, Mami thought with a weak chuckle. Kyouko would definitely accept.

Oneshot

This takes place in a timeline where Sayaka and Kyoko survive while Madoka gets killed by Walpurgisnacht

"K-Kyoko..." Sayaka says, looking up at Kyoko Sakura.

"Sh, it's okay, stupid," the pink-haired girl replies with a smile. "I'm here now."

"B-but Madoka..." tears fill Sayaka's eyes as she remembers Madoka's mangled body lying there, unmoving. And she couldn't do anything. Just days ago, she had yelled at Madoka for doing nothing, and when Madoka finally did something, it ended in her demise. How? How could she have let this happen?

Kyoko wraps Sayaka in a hug, and Sayaka falls into it, her soft cries becoming sobs. "H-how could I have been so selfish?" "Look, we all have our faults. Madoka's was that she was too caring. Remember when I said to live for yourself?" "...yeah."

"Well, Madoka couldn't do that. She was a great person, but now we need to stand up and fight too. Promise me one thing though." "What's that?" Sayaka asks, her face showing confusion.

"Chances are, we die," Kyoko says, her face becoming hard. "but we'll die together, right?"

"Yes!"

"Thank you. Now give me a last kiss, dumbass."

The two embrace and they give each other a long kiss. Walpurgisnacht laughs in the background, and Kyoko and Sayaka stand up, oblivious to Homura resetting the timeline. Everything fades, and it seems the two have never met, once again...

Pretty sure I’ve made this post before in some way but Nagisa/Ui has potential and I’m willing to die on this hill

- Dating would officially unite Mikuzaki Villa and the Holy Quintet

- Kids who get turned into a half witch and can bond over it (or at the very least Nagisa can change back and forth and rebellion and Ui had the whole Eve thing and created the doppel system)

Inside the mirror do you see? (someone else in that body)

Summary: She’s running. From what, she doesn’t know. The winking flash of a mirror passes by and Madoka catches a glimpse of the screaming cosmos.

Note: I want to write a coherent fic with plot but mind said no so here we are now. Anyways dm me or smth if you wanna talk about madoka ig, random people reading this.

Tap, tap, tap. Madoka’s heeled feet echoed with every step she took within this strange black and white hallway. With every step she took, the environment around her would shift-not in colour, but in the patterns and shapes it appeared in. From swirling spirals to zooming zig-zags, the confusing landscape was ever-changing and almost nauseating to watch.

Madoka continued until she found that she had reached both a large mirror and a dead end in front of her. Slowly, her pace decreased until she was simply walking towards the mirror. Nothing was reflected there.

How strange.

Almost as if in a trance, slowly, lightly, her fingers touched the glass. It shattered upon contact, an eldritch scream echoing through her head as she flinched. When she forced her eyes to open, a horrifying visage of a snarling sun, masked partially by a half-moon was what greeted her. It slammed its arms-made out of the void and stardust-onto the mirror, shattering it even further. Darkness seeped through the cracks, reaching for her.

Ancient fear filled her bones, dread pumped through her veins.

Madoka turned and ran, scrambling to get out, ignoring the changes in her surroundings, ignoring the gentle hums and repetitive sighs of happiness. Only knowing that she had to get out get out get out quickly quickly before-!

An invisible barrier shattered, and before Madoka knew it, she was looking around to see desolate ruins of what she knew was Mitakihara city. Pink eyes darted around frantically, taking in the scenery. Shallow waters flooded the ground, and the broken remains of concrete buildings littered the floor. All that was left standing was a lone, barren tree.

The wind howled and shrieked, clawing at her as wailing laughter grew louder and louder. Large pieces of rubble started to rise, balls of colourful fire burst into existence, signalling the arrival of the giant floating doll ( Witch ). She was dressed in a blue gown edged with frills, framing the giant metal gears that protruded from it’s torso. On her white cylindrical head were two pointed hats, each with a translucent veil attached to the pointed end. And on that bone white face was only a red painted smile. A smile that never changed as she continued to rain destruction upon Mitakihara’s ruins. Even without a mouth she managed to laugh, a loud distorted thing that could’ve been mistaken for the mad laughter of despair.

(What is this?)

Madoka watched with undisguised horror as everything was rendered to dust. As a brave, brave girl darted around, trying in vain to bring down that giant doll. And not even a moment’s notice later, that same girl was batted away by a makeshift bat of concrete, steel and glass.

Someone was screaming out a name.

Madoka ran, faster, faster. She had to, no. Needed to end this. She could do it. She could do it. She just had to–!

Unconsciously, her left hand opened to clutch a rapidly forming bow. And as she skidded to halt, without her even realizing, Madoka had already aimed and fired. From her bow came a thin pink arrow that pierced through the doll and the heavens, scattering the clouds with its might. Her mind was blank, as if she was running on auto-pilot, waiting for something.

That something came in the form of a resounding boom that shook the earth. Almost immediately, a dark mist burst into existence. And suddenly, the ground beneath her cracked and shattered to reveal nothing but ink black muck that crashed into Madoka, knocking her off balance and submerging her under darkness. Balance lost, Madoka frantically flailed around, trying to get free, to claw her way out of this prison. To reach that pink light that she just knew was out there.

She was suffocating, drowning in potent despair and fear that almost completely overwhelmed her. Her heart beat erratically, telling her that she needed to leave leave leave please why? . Indescribable agony jolted through her like never-ending shocks of electricity. Thoughts that weren’t her’s were her’s swam through her mind, rendering it a jumbled mess. Madoka had to get out she still had to find her. She needed to find her and save her save her she had to save everyone. And to do that she needed to let go. This way everyone would be happy, together and forevermore. But she couldn’t give them salvation in such a useless useless shell. She choked, clawing frantically at her chest, at her throat, back arching as Madoka let out a silent scream.

And then, she knew no more.

-

She reached her arms out towards the sky, becoming bigger and bigger. Her salvation enveloped the world, bringing them all to her paradise, her heaven. She had to become bigger. She had to. This way she would bring salvation. For everyone. To everyone. She would give salvation to everyone. No matter who they were, no matter if they were good or bad, they would all receive her salvation. Young or old, they would all be saved. Animal or human. It didn’t matter as long as they could all be saved (by her). Wasn’t that nice? Wasn’t that nice? She would save them all from this never-ending misery. No more pain, no more suffering, no more despair. They would all be happy together. Happy together because she helped them all be happy together. She was happy too, because it was all for them. All for them.  She created this paradise for them. She gave salvation to them. She alone was their saviour.

Everyone would be happy, together and forevermore with her. Together and forever and forever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever ever ever ever–

Pink eyes snapped open, and Madoka woke up to the warm early morning sunshine. Her heart was pounding, wild with overwhelming fear of something. Hair on edge, eyes wide open, Madoka carefully sat up. Her body ached with strange phantom pains, and as she slowly stretched several cracks could be heard.

“What was that dream all about?” She mumbled to herself, not expecting an answer. Her fingers dug a little deeper into the bedsheets. A calming haze started to settle on her mind, taking with it most of the memories about that strange, strange dream she had. It trickled away like fine sand until there were barely any (purple) grains left.

Madoka closed her eyes and flopped back down onto the bed. Nothing but a large cage and arms stretching out towards a darkened sky came to mind. She sighed, eyes opening again. Her dreams were starting to become stranger and more incoherent. It was probably nothing too important, so she stopped trying to think any further about it.

Yeah, it probably wasn’t that important.

...Right?
