[There's a brief moment of audio. There's a bit of background noise, but not a lot. Louder than the rest is the voice of a very panicked girl.]

Ah, I'm terribly sorry, sir, but, um... The cash register seems to be malfunctioning. I'm not sure what's... I think I pressed the wrong things, I'm really sorry.

...w-what the...

[There's a different voice, a male one, but he's barely audible. The girl speaks up again after him.]

N-No, everything is alright! I'll just-

[The audio cuts out. About an hour later, a text post follows.]

Um... I guess I should be polite and introduce myself? My name's Cerise... but Cherry is fine too, everyone calls me that. Anyway, could... someone please explain this to me?

Wouldn't that be good, though? Like, what if you got powers of your own, that'd be awesome.

[willchange]

I don't know. It just sounds scary to me.

[sun_sun]

Hey, you'd have the rest of us backing you up, so it's all good.

[sun_sun]

Have you ever been in a fight? Maye you'd suddenly flip out and go crazy. You know, the whole fight-or-flight instinct thing or whatever.

[willchange]

Well, no, but... The idea of me flipping out is somehow even more unbelievable than magical girls actually existing.

[sun_sun]

Yeah, I guess some things are still too far-fetched to believe.
