[ Okay, forget Madoka being a strong and tough girl for a moment. She'll be again, in a moment or two. Right now she's panicking. Alone in a world that's dying where nothing she does makes any difference at all is a little too much. Madoka's used to not being an active hero, more a supportive power in the background... But now she's completely powerless and everything around her is afraid. The feeling reaches for her and holds her captive just as well. ]

H-hello? Anyone? I'm stuck in Cinderella's world and... it really doesn't look good around here. I'm not sure what's happening, but they are all so afraid.... Everything's slowly falling apart.

Does anybody experience something similar? I haven't seen anyone I know yet... If anyone's in this world as well, I'm at the cemetery at the grave of Cinderella's mother. [ It might be accepting her denizen a bit too much, but at least that place was comforting her a bit right now. ]

[ So, the picture you get here is a little chaotic. Madoka's holding her compact in one hand, while the other is used to hold on to the door of her house. She's clearly up in the air and her body seems to want to softly pull her out of the house. Madoka, however, has other plans. Especially as she's still in her nightclothes! And also she's seems around 9 years old - not too much of a difference, but still.

She seems really pissed off.]

Does it get any more ridiculous than this?? First they deage us all and now this! I'd imagined the whole Peter Pan thing to be a bit more fun!

And more importantly: I'm a well-behaved girl and I'm not leaving the house without being properly dressed!

[ She's kind of blushing here. This is the most awkward morning. ]

I'll try and drag myself back to my wardrobe now and in the meantime if anybody's found a solution for this issue I would love to hear it.

[ Even if she felt pretty hopeless and bad lately, today Madoka can't help but be cheerful. While it is sad to spend this day away from home, she's glad to find no weird happenings around. It's a holiday she can spend with her new friends, her substitute family. She's in the shopping district when she makes the post, enjoying the lively atmosphere coming from the NPCs. Two pigeons follow her around. ]

Hey, everyone! I hope you're having a good day so far!

I've been thinking back to the last year a bit... I haven't spent all of it in Arcanarum, of course, but I still realized the time I had here wasn't all bad. I met amazing people and learned a lot of things I never thought myself capable of. G taught me how to fish, Domon taught me how to fight...

A lot of them are gone by now, but I'm glad we were able to meet...

Anyway, what are your best Arcanarum memories?

[ And if you want to join her on her afternoon walk, go right ahead! ]

femininetomboy

[ Have a worried Madoka on your screen. Next to her is, somehow, a pigeon that appears almost worried as well. Seems like this aspect of being Cinderella has finally caught up with her. ]

Is everyone alright? I'm so glad the fires died down, but are there people left with injuries? Or without a roof to stay under?

[ here her expression turns sour ]

And now, seriously, what are they punishing us for? They are irrational anyway, I know, but it's not like we started the fires! We didn't do anything! They're just getting worse and worse the longer we're here!

femininetomboy

[ Madoka is normal-sized and looks very puzzled. Why? Well, look at her. ]

I know it's just my hair colour, but I don't think I look like myself at all.... It's almost weirder than when they made me grow.

[ She touches her hair a bit and shakes her head with a sigh. ]

Is everyone alright after all of this?

femininetomboy

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!?

[ Good morning, Arcanarum. If you weren't awake before, then consider this your wake-up call. Being an early riser (except for when she works all night, that is) Madoka woke up relatively soon to find herself waaay too small. But first she thought that maybe that was okay. Like, there had to be an explanation for this strange place, right? No way this was her bad. Well, turned out to be the bed after all as she reached the corner it, looking down the distance to the floor. ]

T-this is impossible! A body is not supposed to be able to change mass completely like this!

[ Finally she directly addresses the network, still looking panicked. ]

U-uhm, I'm not the only one that ended up like this, right? Please tell me I'm not, I'm Cinderella not Thumbelina, oh my god.

[ And then after a moment ]

T-then again someone normal-sized who could help me deal with this would be really nice, too.

Hi, Arcanarum citizens!

[ As opposed to the thoughtful face she usually puts on when recording messages, this time Madoka is smiling cheerfully. She's standing in her bedroom, but the background focus is a desk with a lot of tools on it, which she imagined up for herself. ]

Actually this isn't very recent anymore, but as something was always happening I failed to get the message out there. I've set up my own little home business. While having a job isn't really necessary here, I felt like contributing something.

So I'll be opening up the 'B-Pit' here. The B-Pit is basically a repair store for objects of all kinds. I know that in Arcanarum most things fix itself, there are some that won't. I'm there for these problems.

I'm a mechanic and I've been running a similar kind of store at home as well, so you can trust me with this!

[ She's only twelve, but the idea that she's basically run a shop on her own doesn't seem weird to her anymore. ]

Aside from that.... Do you think the Rulers would punish you for switching houses?

femininetomboy

It's strange... I've been here for quite a long time now. I think I'm really getting used to it. Even though it's kind of lonely, too.

[ Like almost always when she broadcasts, Madoka is sitting on her kitchen, notebooks next to her as well as a hot chocolate. She looks thoughtful, but not too sad. ]

Back at home, in my own world I mean, my friends used to be always around at my place. It was really exhausting, but never lonely. And until a while ago, there was G here and Spade and all the others... Most of them are gone now. It's become really quiet in this house.

[ She sighs and then seems to snap out of her nostalgia. She smiles apologetically. ]

Ah, forget about it. I'm not sure why I was just saying this. Of course it's more quiet, but that's just how it is, so no use dwelling on it an longer! I'm probably just feeling like this because of these personality changes...

[ Waving her hands dismissively she ends the transmission ]

femininetomboy

[ This time Madoka looks a bit worried, a bit rushed, a bit scared. ]

Uhm... I just... has anybody seen G around? Not that I have much hope, his room is empty... But still. He's tall, got ginger hair and really hard to miss, actually.

[ She laughs awkwardly ]

So if anybody knows anything, please contact me, a-alright?

[ With a weak smile she ends the public video feed. It was useless though, she was already pretty certain G was gone from the island. Back to being dead.... To dying this awful, hopeless death she had seen. It was hard to understand, hard to accept. Madoka really didn't want to be alone right now, but she didn't want to ask for anybody either. The house seemed awful when it was so empty. ]

femininetomboy

[ A rainy day is best for rethinking all the new information is what Madoka sinks. She's comfortably seated in her kitchen, a cup of hot cocoa next to her, as well as her Arcanarum notes and... a red spinning top? She still seems a bit shaken from the previous events, but she's recovering steadily. ]

Hi there! Seems like the kind World has kept her promise.. This feature here apparently allows us to talk in private.
... though I guess the really important things should still be discussed face-to-face...
Before we have actually been spied on all the time, through these mirrors.

Has everyone recovered from those horrible fights and dreams? I'm a bit worried...

But anyway, actually I just wanted to do another information check. I'm sure I'm not the only one who's used our trip to the castle to gather some knowledge and it would probably be best if we shared that with each other, right?

What I got to know is that the original fairy tale denizens... well, they're... destroyed. [ And here her smile vanishes. She seems genuinely sad. ]
They fought for keeping people's dreams and hopes up. So they apparently died in the try to continue being inspirational, no matter what....

And those who disappear from here have just lost their use to the Rulers. At least that's what The World said...

Is there anything more any of you found?

femininetomboy

[ It's a dark graveyard. The sky is full of gloomy purle-ish clothes. Although it's only afternoon, the lightning indicates night. In front of a grave, there is Madoka. Never before she had looked smaller. The girl is staring at a fresh grave, her fists clenched tightly. She is breathing properly, but each and every breath seems to take her a great afford. She just stares, her eyes blank.
It's not something she could believe... She had seen him fall. On the top of this building... he was holding on to it... and then it broke. Madoka had seen him fall. Her best friend. The one who should have saved them all. She had seen him fall, hundredth meters... right into death.
Her own scream echoed in her head. She had not known she could scream like that. After that the world had fallen to darkness. And Madoka had not been able to do anything but assist his father with organizing the funeral. Like a bad dream.
Madoka's eyes traced the name again. 'Ginga Hagane'. Her tiny shoulders began to tremble, finally, it had taken her way too long. ]

..uh...

[ Ginga... He had believed in this world, he had believed in friendship, in them all. Ginga, who had never given up. Ginga, who had a smile brighter than the sun. Ginga, who easily pulled people with him. Ginga, who had just seen his father again. Ginga, the boy who had loved hamburgers a lot... Ginga... Madoka Amano's very best friend. ]

uh... uh.... G-ginga... what should we... do now?

[ And then her legs weren't able to hold her anymore, a little girl who had lost her first real friend. The tears started to roll and Madoka couldn't suppress anything any longer. She just had to let go, shaking horribly and crying, crying, crying. ]

Ginga... Ginga... Giiiiingaaaaaaaaa..... uh....

[ What kind of place was this world? What kind of story was this? It wasn't fair. With Ginga gone they couldn't protect the world anymore... but Madoka had not understood that yet. At least they had let them bury the body... at least that... ]

...ngh... uh.... I-i'm s-scared... C-come back....

femininetomboy

[ As she hadn't really heard from everyone since the weird and way too embarrassing princess-prince-kiss thing, Madoka was getting quite a bit worried. She seemed to be outside, sitting on a greenfield, a basket with food next to her. Apparently someone was ready for a picnic. ]

Hi... I was wondering if everyone was alright? I mean, since this weird thing happened.... [ She blushes a little ] there haven 't been many network posts at all. Did something happen?

Oh, and if you'd like to come out and eat with me, I definitely have some food for you!

[ She holds the basket up to the camera with a smile. ]

femininetomboy.livejournal.com

[ There is a deeeeeep sigh coming from this girl. ]

It doesn't seem like this rain will stop anytime soon, huh?

[ Madoka's sitting on the corner of her bed, glancing over to the window ]

Maybe I'm just too used to having a shop to take care of, but this is rather boring...

[ She lets herself fall backwards on the bed and then stares at the camera again ]

I don't suppose anybody would have some-- Ah, nevermind.

[ Asking for dolls or anything like that was nothing she should do. She could already imagine the boys laughing at her for it and even if they weren't here, she still needed to be mature now. It was not like she'd played with them much lately. She just liked keeping them around and on days like this she missed the times were she could just easily entertain herself with toys. ]

Hey everyone!

I've been wondering... Do you share any traits with your chosen denizens? Or do you have any idea what connects you to them otherwise?

[ There had to be some kind of pattern after all... and after G's denizen change Madoka has become more curious about it then ever. If she already was forced to stay here, she might as well do good research.. ]

I personally share at least one thing with Cinderella...

[ Madoka is inside, staring out at the rain. In front of her there's a book which seems a bit like a diary, but if anybody paid closer attention it seems more like a list of information on Arcanarum that she's found so far, but it''s not much.
Not noticing the recording yet, Madoka puts her pen aside, now turning her whole body to the window ]

I wonder how everyone is doing... Kenta, Benkei.... Ginga... are you all well?

[ Her eyes seem a bit wet, but she's not crying. Instead she forces her attention back to the book, finally noticing the device's transmission ]

Ah, sorry, I didn't mean to...

[ And she quickly turns it off ]

femininetomboy.livejournal.com

[ Madoka is appearing at your screen and she's looking more than only a bit confused ]

Uhm.... Is this broadcasted somewhere? What exactly is this device? It... doesn’t seem to be technique that I know.

[ And that’s freaking her out. She just ought to know all technical things! And also this place if foreign to her and these clothes... ]

My name is Madoka. Amano Madoka. This is... a joke right? [ Or even better... a dream ] Can anybody tell me how to get home?

... and why.... Cinderella?
