[ Hey, Animus! Homura doesn't do this network thing often. So let's just have her get straight to the point. ]

I apologize that this may be repetitive at this point.

My understanding is that a lot was learned over the course of the last month. I would appreciate any confirmation and clarification regarding the facts, theories, and rumors.

Also, my soul gem is beginning to taint. Anyone with purification powers, please respond to this message. It is in all of our best interest that you do so quickly.

Thank you for your time.

[ click. Homura sits at the terminal and awaits replies. Already she is anxious to get up and not waste her time in front of a computer screen. ]

I see... I am sure that for many it will be a comforting experience.

[fusedstars]

It's what I am hoping for.

[rewindingly]

I certainly wish you the best.

[ But she cannot let herself attend... she doesn't want to be distracted.

Homura, you are probably one of the people who would benefit most from this! ]

[fusedstars]

Still, you should attend one or two. Allowing yourself to be concerned with the tower all the time is not healthy on the mind.

Trust me, I know.

[Not an order, but a request.]

[rewindingly]

...

[ She's silent for a good long time. Part of her knows this... but she also knows the obsessing over the tower, as stressful as it is, gives her purpose. With the way the two Madokas in the tower are right now, Homura needs that solid sense of purpose. ]

Self-defense lessons cannot hurt, I suppose.

[fusedstars]

Good. I'll see you when classes are fully organized.

[rewindingly]

Mm. Do let me know when they start.

[ She's still uneasy... but if it's lessons then it isn't a break. It won't be a problem to humor him. ]
