Magini doesn't seem to have any more words, but she's clearly really appreciating the hug.

...then she realizes that she's hugging a very cute girl who has been really nice to her and is actively trying to be her friend  and is funny and fun to talk to and also a superpowered minor(?) criminal(??) and her brain freezes up again!

-and also I just realized I'm maybe catching feelings for her? And realized this while hugging her?? oh no is this going to be awkward jgfdhhkdashkffkf

(Magini started keysmashing in conversations with Hydrangea about an hour after DFEWing notebook powers. It's part of how she communicates via high-bandwidth text channels, apparently)

Oh my, that does sound awkward! But I think that is okay. I'm so glad you're making a new friend! ♡♡♡

;-; it helps a lot to know that she wants to be my friend.

And - thanks. This would be so much harder and less fun without you here! ♡

I'm glad I can help! ♡ Thank you for inviting me along.

Tattletale can keep up the hug as long as Magini needs it.

Comforted by Hydrangea, Magini lets herself enjoy the hug for a while longer (hugs are nice!), then remembers that she needs to take her meds and wants to go exploring!

She disengages with some characteristic happy-awkwardness and goes to take her meds (she grabs her favorite water bottle out of her backpack, Dressing Room'd into and then out of existence! she loves this power!!)

She thanks Lisa again for all the help, promises to stay in touch as soon as she gets herself a phone (which she's off to do now), and heads for the door. 

On her way out, she mentions to Regent that she thinks if he crouches about half a second after reloading the SMG it'll cancel the animation early. (Might also be possible with other weapons with different timings! She's not sure).

Tattletale can totally give Magini a cheap burner phone if she'd like! 

"Neat." replies Regent without looking up.

(Magini wants to get a nicer phone than that, but appreciates the offer!) 

She heads out - it's about 2 hours until she's supposed to arrive to meet up with Kid Win, so it's time to explore and do errands!

She conjures her reinforced jumping stilt design from last night and takes to the city, mostly travelling by rooftop. She hits up the pawn shops on her list, selling off some more conjured platinum jewelry (a few different sets of bangles, with very different designs from the ones Lisa bought off her, a collection of rings and earrings, and one extremely gaudy (and heavy!) neckpiece, for fun) and netting herself several thousand dollars in cash. (She looked up the price of an ounce of platinum before leaving and is confident that she's getting well below market price here, but that's okay!)

Next, she hits up the fancier of the electronics stores she found online and grabs herself a prepaid smartphone (better than she remembers 2011 smartphones being! this alternate timeline stuff is weird), a heavy-duty shock-resistant case for it, and a couple different pairs of bluetooth headphones (2 behind-the-ear in different styles, and one of the fancy expensive sound-muffling kind), paying for it all in cash. 

She ends up on a rooftop a few blocks away from the PRT HQ (she can see it in the distance (woah! shiny!)) and does the basic phone setup song and dance (good thing she made an email address last night!), then logs into PHO. She sends Lisa a quick message confirming that she has her own device now, and checks to see if she has any new messages and/or if anyone else posted about her last night. 

She has a stub on the parahumans wiki, and there's a post on the PHO that is from someone who definitely doesn't admit to being a member of the ABB who heard her last night but would like to know if, hypothetically speaking, there had been such a talk, where she was going with it next. Also if anyone managed to get a picture of that second graph she might have made, if she were making graphs and were to even exist at all, which this forum user wouldn't know anything about. 

Oh! Tutorial time!!

Satisfied with her work, she uploads the videos, puts them in a new post called "💙 Math!! 💙", and tells people they should spoiler their answers to the questions she asks in the replies. Then she drops a link to that post in a reply to the definitely-not-an-ABB-member post with a smiley face.

Mediator has been watching Magini with interest all morning (especially the matter creation! Still no clues - it really does look to be truly novel. And impossible.), but mostly staying quiet. It did ask a few questions about Magini's tutorial while she was making it, and now it's thinking about the answers.

I like helping people learn things! she'd said. Someone I loved a lot told me once that life can be really frustrating and scary when you don't understand what's going on, and - I don't want people to be frustrated and scared, if I can help it.

There's a lot I don't understand and want to! A lot of social things that come naturally to most people are confusing and overwhelming for me. But... math is something I've always found easy, and I think a lot of people get frustrated and give up on it, in part because it isn't taught in a way that makes sense to them. 

Valuable information! Magini cares about people not being frustrated and scared.

Well. Mediator can help her new friend with the social things she finds confusing, at least.

She packs up her stuff, makes her way into the PRT building lobby, and finds a receptionist who's free.

"Hi! My name is Magini - I have an appointment to see Kid Win in about 20 minutes?"

"Ah yes, I see you on the schedule for a tour with him - unfortunately there will be a bit of a delay due to circumstances that have come up" such as the circumstance of Kid Win having ADD "but you are welcome to browse the gift shop or take a seat in the waiting area."

Oh, gift shop! She wanders in to check out what they have.

Quite a wide variety of things! There are action figures (Vista's has real stretchable arms! For some reason!), mock costumes, branded clothing ("Gallant's Gallant Prom Suit"), lunchboxes, and toys such as "Shadow Stalker Nerf Bow!", "Tunnel Teen's Tunnel Machine", and  "Your Favorite Freezing Hero's Favorite Popsicles!"^{1, 2}.

Kid Win in particular seems to have a lot of merch, including "Kid Win Hover Skate Board", "Kid Win Spark Gun - Like the Real Thing!³", "Kid Win's Official Cape Biography: Winning for Kids", and in a corner towards the back of the store: "Kid Win's Keyboard Kit - Assemble your own ergonomic keyboard in any configuration you want! Multiple font options provided."

¹ There's a conspicuous lack of anything with the name "Clockblocker" on it.

² Completely innocently and with no idea what you are complaining about Clockblocker has advertised these with the taglines "Suck on them before your friends get a chance", "Clocklicken good!", "They're my favorite Diiiiiii-licious treat!", and in one case "Pop-em while you gottem'" which the PR manager assigned to Clockblocker can't find anything actively dirty about but nonetheless strongly objects to. It is the best selling item in the Wards catalog. 

³ Not usable as a personal defense weapon. For visual effects only. Not like the real thing.

Oh this is great. She has as much money as she wants and she is totally going to grab a Kid Win action figure. Actually maybe a full set of Wards action figures. 

She wants a real hovering skateboard very badly but they do not sell those here! She giggles at the biography. The keyboard kit - oh, actually those switches are nice, and holy shit it comes in comic sans. She loves comic sans! (She's gotten in trouble for using it in slide decks at school, but nobody can stop her from putting it in her stream layout!)

...she doesn't have a desktop computer (or even a local-wifi-compatible laptop, yet...), and she discovered this morning that typing with prehensile hair has a totally different set of tactile needs, so she will skip on it now.

She heads up to the register and buys her action figures with cash, and then heads back out into the waiting area.

Eventually Kid Win arrives, somewhat winded from the effort of getting here only twenty three minutes late.

"Sorry sorry, I was working on tuning magnetic resistors and there was some really weird resonance I wanted to figure out and I lost track of time. Oh I see you found the gift shop."

"Yeah!! Hi!!! Your keyboards are amazing, once I get a desktop I am definitely going to one unless I decide to design something stupidly complicated for myself because I have a lot more input vectors than I'm used to because I can type with my hair really well, weirdly, and-"

Wait! She skipped a step!!

"And my name is Magini and it's really good to meet you! Did you figure out the resonance?"

"Hi! I sort of maybe figured out the resonance - it turned out there was some interlocking signals interfering and I am going to measure it and that will tell me what I need to know. Also you type with your hair, how does that work?"

"Oh, neat! How do you even measure something like that, do you use special tinker tools?" 

While she's saying that, she - is briefly hidden by a hair whirlwind - and then her prehensile hair zips open the backpack that, huh, sure is now on her back, and pulls out a laptop, opens it, and wakes it up. Then a bunch of smaller strands snake out across the keyboard, rapidly typing out the sentence "Well, it works like this! :D" into a text editor in clear view of Kid Win.

"Yeah I have a stereoscopic viberenderer that helps though sometimes I can just eyeball it - wow that's very cool what sort of things do you want in a keyboard for it?"
