Magical Girl Raising Project

Monday-Sunday, Week 0

20 REMAIN

Welcome to the Magical World of Dreams and Magic! No matter where you are or if you're from a world with technology or otherwise, you've managed to find yourself holding a cell phone with the Magical Girl Raising Project preinstalled - a game with a rather deceiving title - with no way to actually uninstall it. Whether you're doing this voluntarily or tapped the screen by accident due to not knowing much about technology, eventually a magical fairy appears out of the blue from your phone and finally opts to speak.

"My name is Fav, and you have been chosen, pon!" For what, exactly? He soon explains that you, too, can become a real magical girl or magical boy and obtain power and help others. "If you really want to become one, just press the button here, pon. It's that simple, pon."

There's just something about Fav's voice that's so compelling, and you're promised many good things to come if you just tap that screen... but if you wait too long, you'll find your body moving on its own to do the action, as if possessed.

Once that's all said and done, you will find yourself blacking out and the next time you open your eyes... there's a very unfamiliar ceiling in a very unfamiliar bed. The place you've woken up in is a rather lavish hotel room; modern, yet has a somewhat old-fashioned feeling to it. It's rather nice, at least in comparison to the view outside.

Welcome to Town A, your almost stereotypical dystopian city in your almost stereotypical world. If not for the fact that you can't really leave, due to the barriers that encase the edges of the town.

As of right now, the clocks read 9 AM in the morning - it's time to rise and shine, sleepyheads! And as if that wasn't enough, the voice of Fav will remind you of such to meet up in the downstairs area for a very special announcement, although he won't force people to meet with him, as it's definitely not an obligation. You could always avoid the announcement. But do you honestly think that's a good idea, given that you're in a whole different world?

[Yeah, Zack's covered in them. In fact, it looks like he has more bandages than visible skin. You'd think he'd be self conscious of that, but no. He's used to it.]

[What he's not used to is random people saying they have never seen anyone wearing a bandage in a long time. What?]

...Okay? Have you been living under a rock or something, because people like me exist.

[imitationsoul]

What year are you from?

[ Seeming non-sequitur, but asked with notable interest. ]

[zackthekiller]

[And this girl just got weirder.]

What kind of question is that? Are you some kind of time traveler?

[imitationsoul]

Not until today.

[ She waves her hand dismissively. ]

But 'disease', 'illness', 'injury'... those are terms which's meaning my time's major societies have long forgotten.

[zackthekiller]

[Okay. So the magical blob is pulling people from the future.]

[Still, that can't be right. A society that has wiped out health ailments from existance? Sounds too good to be true.]

Woah... You mean you're some sort of rich girl from the future?

[imitationsoul]

Admedistrative society has surpassed the need for wealth as well. Selfishness, greed... Such feelings aren't fitting for a correct lifestyle. They call it optimal resource usage - in other words, gain can only come to us if all humans are utilized to their full potential. Inequality, imbalance... those are hindrances. Capitalism is a thing of the past.

[ A headshake. ]

It's boring, truth be told.

Excuse the swearing.

[zackthekiller]

[Zack couldn't believe what he was hearing. A world where nobody could get hurt or sick? A world where nobody was poor or completely screwed up in the head? A world where everyone where everyone was happy working together?]

[... It's a little satisfying to see the girl disapprove of it.]

No shit. Boring and kind of creepy if you ask me.

There is no way in hell everyone in the future can be a goody-two-shoes with perfect health. It's like they're not even human anymore.

[imitationsoul]

[ Her smile widens at that disapproval. ]

We're outsourcing our humanity in favor of productivity, in favor of species preservation... It's because everyone is scared, scared of the things humans can do unregulated. They wouldn't say it that way, of course.

But you're right - people simply aren't like this. They suffer quietly, unwilling to admit even that much to themselves.

[ Pause. ]

So. What are the bandages for?

[zackthekiller]

Yeah... I hope I don't live to see that society.

[A world like that would simply have no place for someone so horrible as him. A serial killer, an unrepentant sinner with no education. He'd stick out like a sore thumb, and who knows what the others would do to him.]

[... Oh right, and his bandages.]

You really want to know, do you?

[imitationsoul]

Of course.

CW: abuse

[zackthekiller]

[Well, since she started yammering about her horrible world...]

Eh... I got burned alive as a kid. Still got the scars, but it's pretty much healed up.

I just got used to wearing the bandages.

[imitationsoul]

Huh, I see...

[ Miach headtilts as she looks him up and down, as if trying to imagine the scar tissue. It's probably kind of rude of her, but shh. ]

I'm Miach, by the way.

[zackthekiller]

[He's not gonna complain. Many people have given him weird looks before. Weird name, though.]

I'm Zack.

Mind if I just call you Mia? That's easier to say.

[imitationsoul]

Sure, go ahead. Seeking the easiest way is also human nature.

[ And thus she got her first nickname ever, somehow. ]

[zackthekiller]

They don't have nicknames in the future, either? Are you sure humanity hasn't died out and been replaced by alien clones?

[Zack can agree to that sentiment, though. He has his reasons for seeking the easier option first.]

[imitationsoul]

Quite sure.

Though nicknames do exist, it's just that I've never had one before. Coincidence, if you will.

[zackthekiller]

Oookay, then...

[He seriously doubts the humans of the future are even human anymore.]

Well, enjoy having a nickname, Mia. It's a thing humans have more of here.
