anonymous; text (link contains details of the murder of a teenager)

[justforyou]

Was looking through the news sites recently and found this article.

Some guy is going around killing teenagers. Can't say I really blame the killer that much, though. Most kids that age are annoying brats. They can't understand anything.

So what if this guy is a 'serial killer' or something? They can't even prove the same person did it, right? So getting all up in arms about it seems kind of pointless to me. You guys agree, right?

Getting up in arms is pointless? I don't think it's pointless at all. In fact, I think something like this should be looked at, considering the victims all suffered the same wounds, and were around the same ages. If you don't think that that doesn't deserve some sort of attention, then there may be something wrong with you.

And another thing; annoying brats or not, they are living beings. How could you dismiss humans lives like that? Everyone deserves a chance to live, and no one has the right to take a life from another human being.

A lot of people get cut up. Can't say that's too unusual. Maybe they had the same boyfriend or something. Girls that age are always doing stupid stuff like playing love games. Aren't spouses and significant others the first suspects anyway?

Didn't know them but I know that I hate kids. Besides, it's possible this reporter just wants the attention. Can't say I can give anyone my pity over that.

...wanted the attention? Are you kidding? How can someone want an attention over something as serious as this? Look, if you want to go ahead an argue that an article like this is pointless, then go ahead, but other people aren't going to take too kindly to that sort of thing. Can you imagine how the families- no, the friends of the victims feel for that?

Let me put this into perspective; this sort of crap doesn't happen all the time. Where else can you find girl's around the same age having the same cuts- and what's worse is that their clothes weren't even torn to begin with, doesn't that strike you a little bit suspicious? And can you imagine this happening to someone you hold dear, too? Would you then give a little more feelings towards this, or are you going to act like an ass about it?

My important person wouldn't get into that situation. I'd kill anyone who'd try to touch her. It's that simple.

So some person is slicing up the faces of teenage girls. Maybe they were wearing something else when it happened. Maybe they died of something else. It's a little weird but if the police are competent they'd probably find out why.

...you know, you're making yourself out to be no better than the person that's actually committing these crimes in the first place.

[Something about the wording of that first sentence, though, does tip Sasayan off a bit. He figures he might manipulate this into making whoever this is crack a bit.]

So, what you're saying is that this important person of yours is around the same age as the other girls, then? [Or at least that's the implication he's getting.] Now that would be a problem, wouldn't it? She may just be targeted next by this serial killer. It's not far from the modus operandi, isn't it? ...or maybe there's something else you're hiding.

This took place in the Mitakihara area?

Yeah.

[ Usagi can't even text for this. Her jaw drops open when she reads that message. No way, people dying like that.. as if she could agree with brushing that aside. ]

No way, it's not pointless at all..! It's cruel that something like that is happening, super cruel! They should find out what's happening for sure so not more people will have to die!

anon; text

[justforyou]

We don't even know if it's connected or not...but people are killed all the time. It's not that unusual.

[selene]

Even if it happens all the time, it doesn't mean it's right! If there's one life taken, then that means one life could have been protected and so that person could have lived on, except it never happened..

That's why I want to make sure everyone is protected. That no one has to die so early.

anon; text

[justforyou]

You can't just protect everyone. You need to decide who's more important.

[selene]

To me.. everyone is important. Nobody deserves to be left alone, left behind or get hurt.. and especially not die! Every life is important..!

[ Madoka feels sick when she reads the story, both hands clamped over her mouth to avoid gagging. serial killings? in Mitakihara? and all of them teenage girls her own age...

it can't be something else to do with witches or Puella Magi, right? not everything has to do with them, even if it seems to have taken over Madoka's life by now. but...

but.

her hands are shaking, but it's still easier to use text for this. people can't see how badly this is affecting her. ]

You're... you're kidding, right? How could it ever be pointless to make a fuss about people dying? It's horrible.

[strange this is that Madoka won't find anything on the murders... because it's happening in a different timeline... oh dear...]

They would have died anyway. People die. Sometimes in horrible ways. Sure maybe there's someone out there doing this but we don't know if it's the same person.

Calling it a serial killing is just stupid.

[stillneedawish]

But... they all happened in really similar ways, right? I think... well, anyone would assume that they were related, somehow. And besides, just because people die doesn't mean we shouldn't try to find out what killed those girls! Saying that sort of thing, it's just... really cold.

text; anon

[justforyou]

Cold? Maybe. Maybe they were related. Maybe they all dated the same guy or something. Isn't that what girls like that age do? Stupid frivolous things like that. If you think about it people are the most cruel at that age.

text

[stillneedawish]

I don't think that's true at all. And even if it was, they didn't deserve to die like this.

anon

[former_endboss]

Ahh, that's a wonderful story. Humans cut to pieces. Suffering in pain for hours, and it's still better than they deserve.

anon

[justforyou]

Those girls would have died anyway. At least they paid a little.

anon

[former_endboss]

Paid for what? The sins of their entire species? It's hard to imagine a punishment harsh enough for that, believe me.

anon

[justforyou]

Can't say I hate them for being humans but I hate them for being what they are.

[precursorstone_gun_nest]

You haven't spent a whole lot of time around other people, have you?

Most people find the idea of other people getting killed kind of upsetting. Especially kids. And most people wouldn't say someone deserved to die just because they're annoying.

And whether it's the same guy or not, finding whoever's killing a bunch of kids seems like a pretty good thing to get up in arms about to me.

[justforyou]

Can't say I still find myself very sympathetic.

[precursorstone_gun_nest]

Let's put it this way.

Even if you weren't the one to do it, you're making yourself look really suspicious and also like kind of a psycho.

You can think I'm crazy. I know I'm right.
