Lillyan: Ir Magica Loco!

*I revert as the barrier fades*

Mami: Well done.

Sayaka: Wow! Lillyan, you are so unbelievably cool!

Lillyan: Nononononononono

Mami: This isn't supposed to be fun, Sayaka. What we're doing is very dangerous. Don't forget that, okay?

Lillyan: Sankyu.

Madoka: Hey, how come a Grief Seed didn't pop out this time?

Kyubey: That wasn't a Witch, it was just a Familiar acting without its master. They don't carry Grief Seeds.

Sayaka: Seems like a shame to have to fight it and not get anything for it.

Mami: True, but we really can't just let them do what they want, either. If we did, they'd eventually become the same as the Witch they split off from.

Madoka: Well, what about your Soul Gem?

Lillyan: Hm? Oh, don't worry, I got it.

Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?
I could really use a wish right now
Wish right now
Wish right now~

Sayaka: Whoa, how'd you do that?

Kyubey: She made a wish for someone else's sake, and that person sings to keep himself sane, so her Soul Gem clears itself when she sings.

Lillyan: Okay, let's get going.

Mami: So, have either of you decided what to wish for?

Sayaka: Actually, yeah. But, I'm not sure I'm ready yet... How about you, Madoka?

Madoka: Nope. Maybe it'll help if you tell us what you wished for, Mami.

*Mami freezes in her tracks*

Madoka: I-I didn't mean to be nosy! It's fine if you don't wanna say!

Mami: For me, it was different. I didn't have the luxury of thinking about it first. It's not that I regret my decision; I am alive, after all. And I think the life I have now is better than being dead. But if you have the chance to think about what you want most in life, you should take as much time as you need.

Sayaka: That's kind of where I was going. If you make a wish, does it have to be for yourself? I mean, I have a friend who's having a way worse time than I am. Would it be bad if I used my wish to help him out?

Lillyan: We already talked about it, and I said it was okay as long as you did. Being my superior and all...

Mami: Actually, that might not be the best idea. If you use your wish to grant someone else's, you should be sure exactly why you're doing it. Are you really doing for someone else's benefit? Or the opposite; are you doing it for their eternal gratitude? The motive behind a wish is what matters most, you know...

Lillyan: {Kyubey, if he denies my affection, will I--}

Kyubey: {I wouldn't worry yourself with that.}
