[there's been a weird girl (hair down, not in pigtails, though) hanging around Cafe Leblanc for the past few weeks now. what's up with that? she comes and goes as she pleases, and Leblanc's usual patrons (read: the Phantom Thieves) may only catch glimpses of her every so often. weird!!]
[but today]
[TODAY. . .]
[. . . today, said usual patrons are treated to an unfamiliar yet distressed cry of a Bienfu coming from inside their favorite establishment--]
BIIIIIIIIIEEEN!
[hey, that's weird! you guys should probably check it out. is someone being tortured within Leblanc's sacred walls???]
[but today]

[Wow that sure is weird???
That's not a sound that's supposed to come from Leblanc? Yusuke frowns hard at the door where he was about to enter, sketchbook under one arm... okay let's do this, he wanted quiet sketching BUT HE'LL TAKE THE RISK.
Gangly artist has got this handled, doesn't he just scream intimidation.
IN HE BOLDLY GOES, WHAT EVILDOER LURKS IN HERE HE JUST WANTS TO DRAW AND EAT AND DRINK]

[OH YUSUKE. . . YOU NAIVE, INNOCENT SOUL. THERE IS NO QUIET SKETCHING TO BE HAD HERE TODAY]
[what he finds when he enters the cafe is said strange girl with one foot planted on a booth table. she is currently bent over a strange creature, on whose cheeks she is yanking. ferociously. when she speaks, her voice is eerily similar to Futaba's, though with different intonation and speech patterns]
Bienfuuuuuuu. . .! I don't remember giving you express permission to eat the last bite of my lunch.
[. . . the strange creature can talk]
Biiiiiien, I'm sorry Miss Magilou! I didn't think you were watching me!
Stealing food behind your mistress's back? Unforgivable! Why, I should--
[but then the sound of the door opening gets her attention, and she stops yanking long enough to look up]
[and stare at Yusuke]
[and say--]
Do you mind coming back later? I'm in the middle of punishing my minion right now.
[yeah okay]

[ It sure sounds like it?? And even more bizarrely, the troubled soul is apparently French??
Makoto is too well-mannered to kick down the door when she's not in Phantom Thief mode, and certainly not while wearing a school uniform, so she simply opens the door and squares her shoulders. ]
Is everyone all right??

[ yeah, he's noticed this girl. He's also noticed that she smells like Akira, and Akira smells like her, and he's just been waiting for the eventual explanation of this whole thing, because Akira's been weird for a few weeks, and -- well, quite frankly, it's sort of getting on his nerves. Mostly because he's worried that something bad happened. The two of them are alike in that neither of them like to talk about things that are bothering them very much; Morgana's realizing that being on the receiving end of it, for once, is actually really annoying. And stressful.
So he's already on edge when he hears a weird noise coming from downstairs. Immediately, he assumes that whatever bad thing has been stewing for weeks has finally boiled over, and he bolts down the stairs. All nine pounds of him, meowing at the top of his lungs to chase off whatever intruder is down here. ]
Oi!! What the hell are you doing down here?! We're closed right now!!
[ he assumes she won't be able to understand him, but... ]

[Kia I can't believe you]
[same sight as above, honestly: Magilou, hunched over a table, yanking on Biefnu's cheeks like a jerk while the poor normin wails. but hey! at least she stops when Makoto enters? and looks up to stare at her for a second like, ?????]
Oho, please feel free to go about your business. Don't mind us! We won't get in your way.
[. . . the poor normin lets out a sad biiiien. his life is so hard]

[what is this
is Futaba in cosplay because it sounds so similar... but like... it's obviously not Futaba, right...
He narrows his eyes like it'll make more sense if he squints.]
Your foot is on the table.
[#priorities
Like what does he focus on first, isn't this fine as a start. He'll build on it from here.]

[but. . .]
[his shout is enough to get Magilou's attention, at least! which is good because she was in the process of yanking on Bienfu's cheeks. who, Morgana will now see, is the source of the distressed cry. you have saved this normin's life, Morgana. be proud]
[everything freezes for a good five seconds. Magilou takes one look at Morgana, and--]
Aha! The mascot character!
[she lets go of Bienfu (who goes floating in the air above her with a relieved biiiien. . .) and immediately goes to scoop Morgana up without answering his question]
[hi kitty]

[bless Yusuke]
Duh, of course it is. It helps the intimidation factor! Don't you know?
[said so matter-of-factly]

[all he wanted was to hang out in his fav place]
...Intimidation factor.
[Looks to the... thing... she's pulling on. Points at it. What is that can he sketch it, is it alive, is it a toy, it honestly isn't really an issue at the moment apart from the noises it's making being very loud.]
Do you need to intimidate it?
[IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S HAVING A BAD TIME AS IS]

[The door opens.
And then it closes.
If someone came in there's...SURE NOBODY IN THE DOORWAY NOW.
That's because there's someone huddled behind the counter under Sayuri, it's fine.
Sorry, Magilou--but Akira sure is getting a very aggressive text.]
Who. Is. THAT?
[A pause, and then for added emphasis, another text:]
。゜(`Д´)゜。 ??????
[But yeah she's literally stuck now so thanks for NOTHING.]

[Bienfu's eyes immediately begin to sparkle]
Akira. . . my savior! Always looking out for me in the worst of times-- BIEN!
[whatever praise Bienfu was going to give his rescuer gets interrupted as Magilou smooshes his face together. . . and then graciously, at Akira's command, lets go. the normin pops back onto his feet and shakes his head, before hopping up into the air and disappearing into a weird ball and ring of light]
[. . .]
[also she removes her foot from the table b/c he's good at collaring her, honestly]
Sheesh, you really know how to ruin a girl's fun, you know?

[glances up from where she is pulling on Bienfu's face to stare. . . at the door]
[. . .]
. . . uho! I think we're being visited by a wandering spirit.
[well, at least Bienfu isn't crying anymore, mostly because she is. no longer pulling on his face. way to save the normin Futaba!!]

[ oh shit what the fuck is that
one of the things that he always comes back to is how he looks like nothing else in the world, how his "true self" is bizarre and doesn't fit in with the rest of the world, but -- that thing floating up next to the bar sure looks like him?! It's enough to make him freeze in his tracks. ]
Woah! W-what is tha-- hey!! Let go!
[ and freezing is enough to give Magilou a chance to grab him. Naturally, he's immediately struggling, pushing his paws against her face with all his might. (It's not a lot of might, because he's a cat.) ]

[She should've totally checked the cameras today she was a fool. Letting her guard down--!! A fool!!!
Magilou has a lot of energy and is a very weird person and Futaba is definitely just. Slowly. Sloooowly lifting her head to peer over the counter a little. Akira's there and that helps, but he's on the other side of the counter, so she can't hide behind him, and that kind of sucks.
But getting to him would require getting around... that lady.
His "friend".
Hm.]
... Hm. [Yes, Futaba. "Hm."] Since when? [That's rude.] It's not like you've ever texted anyone with no sense of color and a crying mascot character. [Oh.]

[Yusuke nods approvingly. You've fixed it, Akira.
While quickly surmising that this is some kind of friend of Akira's (as well as the thing that? disappears??? what) from the interaction, he relaxes. He'll just slide into a seat like all is well.
all. is. well. he's not curious or puzzled about anything at all!!]
Magilou, is it?
[Though everything was distracting he did catch her name from that tiny thing that was yelling!]

[It's all she's good for.
Naturally as soon as Akira's close enough, she's hiding behind him and latching onto him immediately. She's gotten better at dealing with people, but a loud and new stranger in The Safe Zone (ie Leblanc) is alarming and something she wasn't prepared for.
It's fine, she's got Akira.]
Is she an alien? [FIRST THING'S FIRST.
How can texting not be her "thing"? Even Yusuke can text.]
A misplaced RPG character from the past? A really zealous historical re-enactor? [Stop.
Or maybe she's just like.
A jolly rancher. Look at what she's wearing.]

[WOW FUTABA!! at least, at Akira's request for her to cool it for a bit, she releases Bienfu long enough for the poor normin to smoosh his face together, hop into the air, and then disappear into a ball and ring of light. ~how spooky~]
[she spins on her heel to jab a finger at Futaba, and. . . sorry if she's. a little intimidating. SHE IS LOUD]
Wrong! I am none of those things!
[and then she props her hands on her hips, and-- yeah. Akira knows what's coming]
Allow me to introduce myself to my full capacity! As a matter of fact, I am the magnificent, the marvelous, the one and only witch who travels across dimensions--
[. . . AKIRA YOU MIGHT WANT TO STOP HER BEFORE THIS GETS OUT OF HAND]
