-The voice on the other end is... tired. Weak from fasting. But probably from spending days upon days crying in her room as well. No one is keeping score.-

If my miracle powers were working... I could solve this famine. Why won't they work? Why can't I do any good here?

... I really am just taking up space, aren't I? A waste of everyone's time...

You aren't taking up space, and you're not a waste of everyone's time. If your powers aren't working, it's the fault of the people in charge here, not you.

[ Madoka pulls herself together to respond. Hungry and exhausted, yes, but not about to sit back and let someone say those things. ]

Wh-what? No, hey! Don't talk about yourself like that! It's not true at all!

[unbrkableteen]

You shouldn't be so hard on yourself. We're all in the same boat here.

Um... I... um, don't know you really, or... what powers you might have but...

But when times are lean it's not good to blame anyone for it. That's... something that happens. Even... if it happens in a really strange way.

... Do you guys want me to bring or send some stuff over to the shrine? I have more than what two people really need, and besides, I most likely don't need as much as a human.

Don't say that, Sanae! [ Some people might be tired and listless, but Subaru seems to have energy to spare. Her eyes are bright... too bright, really. ]

Sometimes the most we can do is try, and keep trying.

Ok, that's it. I am not going to let you stay here and mop any longer!

Of course you aren't. This was an event out of everyone's control.

[Guh. It's really punching her in the gut to see everyone so...depressed. Sick. Damn famine. She liked her food and was a bit displeased about not having anything delicious to chow down on, but ever since it became apparent there was nothing to eat but sweets, she'd stopped eating altogether. Why waste the last remaining food when she didn't even need it to survive?]

Please trust me on this, Sanae-san.
