givesahand[Sayaka had been thinking for a while, after seeing Mami train and then fight monsters with her at the coliseum. She had been devoting herself to her music lessons, but she realized that she had been neglecting her magical girl duties. After all, a magical girl was supposed to be a hero of justice! She couldn't just forget about it like that.
Plus, without Kyuubey or the Witches... she could have a little more fun with it. The first line of business for her magical girl training crash course:]
... I need to have something to say when I transform to make it more dynamic.
[Yeah. Transformation quotes are always top priority. Sayaka pauses to think deeply for a moment, before coming up with a line. She tries it on for size:]
TRANSFORMATION, HOOOOOOOO! [She trails off, and frowns. That was... horrible.] Nah.
[More thinking! She should use something more eloquent, maybe add a few more words in!]
Uh... Blade and light, cape and knight! CLASH! Swordsman Special Puella Magi Transformation! [Pause. Another frown.] That's too much, and it doesn't even make any sense.
[Ponder ponder ponder. Maybe she should do something more classic, like in those anime shows she watched way back when...]
Sword Soul Gem Power, make-up! Beauty in Blue! [Her expression that followed that line was almost akin to gagging.] Ugh, it just isn't me.
[Some more thinking... Okay! Then how about the modern route?]
Puella Magi Sayaka, target locked on! [The resulting frown on her face indicates she's become more annoyed than before.] That... wouldn't really work, since I'm more of a close range fighter.
[Thinking, more thinking... Maybe if she just changed the last part into something more aggressive...]
Puella Magi Sayaka, breakin' through! [Pause.] Even though it feels like I'm on the right track, I think that line might have been used by someone else before...
[More thinking... More pondering... After several minutes, she grips her head with her hands with a frustrated grunt.]
... Uuuuuurgh! Darn it, I can't think of anything that would make me look cool!

Date: 2011-06-14 06:04 am (UTC)M-Maestro Chopin! I... I-I-I...! When was this... Why is this on?!
[Oh god. Ohgodohgodohgod. She could tolerate the other magical girls, complete strangers, or her room mates, but not any of her teachers! This was too embarrassing! So embarrassing that she could die! She's so glad this was set in voice mode, so she can properly hide her super red face.]
I... I was doing nothing! R-Really!
IT'S OKAY, I LOVE SAYAKA [ voice ]
Date: 2011-06-14 09:32 am (UTC)Oh goodness, are you all right? I'm deeply sorry if I upset you.
YAY ♥ [ voice ]
Date: 2011-06-15 10:31 pm (UTC)Ah, no... You don't really need to apologize! I'm not upset at all! I was just surprised that the Dreamberry was recording me all of a sudden.
[... Ugh, he heard all of that, didn't he. Well, he did say that he believed in magic, so maybe she could tell him...]
... You know how I said I though magic existed? It's because I can use it. As for the random shouting I was doing... It has something to do with a type of story genre popular in Japan during my time.

You see, back home, a popular subject in show or book plots is the concept of a 'magical girl'. It usually involves a girl or group of girls around their teenage years gaining magical powers somehow and using them to defend people from anything disrupting the peace. The moral of those stories is usually 'love, justice, and courage will always win.' Of course, these stories are mostly intended for children, so they tend to include some fun theatrics, like whenever the girls need to transform into their magical alter-egos, they say some sort of cute catchphrase.
[Phew, that was a lot. Sayaka didn't really read much manga, but anyone in Japan would know that much.]
I used to think it was just a work of fiction, but...

I guess you could equate it to a play. You know how the Dreamberry can let you see people from far away? In my time, some people use that kind of technology to act out roles to show a story. A popular one for the magical girl genre is 'animation'. It's when a sequences of drawn pictures are shown quickly to make it look like the picture is moving.
