[1 - Shirley or Tsukasa]

It's an odd sight, seeing Kabuto carry Shirley onto the ship with her wrecked strikers still mangled on her feet. But gently, he sets things her down and replaces the strikers into the bay for her. Shirley's got this sort of forlorn expression at the damaged engine.

"Gonna take a while to get it repaired.... if it can be repaired. Looks like I totally blew out the magic engine."

"Sorry. I'd offer to let you borrow Blade but I need my belt. I'll leave you with that." And with that, Tsukasa walked off, having said his peace and leaving Shirley to sigh.

[2 - Shirley]

You can find her later, disassembling the wrecked strikers and checking the components. Some of them are set aside into a salvage pile, the others, well, they were just junk. The actual components in the salvage was very small as most of it was being consigned to the trash heap.

"Damn... this is going to be tough without getting a whole new striker built. I should check if we have brooms left."

[3 - Tsukasa]

Kabuto's still wandering around. He keeps wondering to himself why he didn't interfere. His wandering takes him from the deck to the mess hall, and then to the Hikari Studio. He hadn't even bothered dropping out of transformation, simply dropping the helmet and making himself some tea.

"After all this, I'm still going with Mio. What the hell is wrong with my priorities..."

Heh thanks Yoshika, really. [Rests her hand on the girl's hands that were around her shoulders.]

I'm fine, just a little shook up. My shields took the brunt of it. Which reminds me, don't use a witch barrier and a round shield at once. It'll short out the engine.

Mmn! (She didn't move for quite a while, just wanting to be there for Shirley however long she felt was necessary.)

Eh? A witch barrier and a round shield? I-I'll remember that!

Yeah, definitely don't do it. I'll have to cut down on my other magic training too. It's something though, in combat.

But you can still train with us, right?

For the most part. You don't need magic for drills.

Hehe, that's good to know! But, how are you gonna keep up if you don't have your Striker?

Broom. It was the first thing I flew on as a kid, and I'm an old hat at it. Don't worry too much about it.

Ehhh?! Witches actually used brooms to fly around? (Luger was right about something?)

Well yeah, Strikers were only a recent invention after all.

...They weren't that recent; you guys were using them before I became a Witch, but I see your point.

What was it like flying on a broom?

Well, it's recent by maybe a few years.

Oh it was fun. First thing I picked up when I was ten and I came into my magic. Chafes a bit but it's not bad.

You actually brought it with you? Can I see it?

Ahahaha, I didn't bring it with me, Yoshika. But there's a lot of brooms on the chalice we can use.

Ehhh?! Aren't those the ones we use to clean and stuff? Maybe some I don't know about...

Brooms a broom. It's the magic we use that makes us fly, not the broom itself.

...Of course; I didn't mean it like that. Sorry!

No worries. I can teach you the basics but there's really no need right at the moment. Maybe later I'll show you guys though.

Okay! I'd like that a lot. Thanks, Shirley~! (Expect Yoshika to fall asleep while still holding Shirley close.)

No problem. Get a little rest if you need it.
