"That's good! Track was nice; I really like running." 'It's great, though I'm a bit worried someone will notice and think I'm doping or something. I might want to drop track, because of that and the time thing.'

She nods.  'What are you gonna tell your parents?'

'Just my mom. And that I need to focus more on schoolwork, probably. Which is even kinda true.'

'Oh, I'm sorry.'

'Do you want to look for Kyubey and see about meeting that other magical girl?'

'Eh, they divorced a while ago. I'm over my dad not being around.

'And sure, though we'll have to get on the bus soon. If we're heading to your house, I need to call my sister and let her know.'

'I think I'd prefer to hang out at your house, actually, if that's okay with you.'

'Sure. We'll have to come up with a lie for my sister, though - I was planning on claiming I was going to your house to study together - we can use that for sitting in my room talking, but not so much for wandering off. Of course this'll depend on where the other magical girl is, and when it's convenient to meet her. I suppose I can say I'm showing you around or something.'

'That'd work I think.  I'll call my dad.'

She retrieves her phone and makes a call, saying that she's going to spend some time at her new friend's house, "studying, hanging out a bit, we don't have the whole afternoon planned out - yeah, okay - love you too - bye."

'That's taken care of,' she says.  'Shall we head for the bus now?'

She texts her sister to warn of Impending Friend while Kaylee's on the phone with her dad.

'Yeah, let's. Do you want to contact Kyubey now?'

'Sure.  You want to talk to him or shall I?'

'I can, unless you want to.'

'No, that's fine.'

'Kyubey?'

'Hello!  What is it?'

'Do you know where the other magical girl is? And can you pass on a message, that we'd like to meet her?'

'I don't know where she is at this moment, but I can get in touch with her!'

'Mal?'

'Yes?'

'A prospective magical girl wants to meet with somebody who knows what it's like.  Are you free sometime soon?'

'I can free myself up. Should I come to her, or does she want to drop by the community center?'

'I'll check.'

'She wants to know if you can meet her at the community center or if she should come find you.'

'I can meet her there. I'll try and grab room 1c, it's one of the presentation spaces, almost never taken.'

'That will do just fine.  Thank you!'

To Lianne and Kaylee: 'She'll meet you in room 1c.'

'Cool. The community center's on the city bus line, which has a stop right outside my neighborhood, so we can drop off our school things, let my sister know where we're going, then head out?'

'Sounds good to me!'

When they get to her house, Lianne tells her sister that she's showing Kaylee to the community center, for Reasons, drops off her bookbag, and then leads the way to the bus-stop. It's about a five minute walk, then a fifteen minute bus ride, to right outside the center's door.

The meeting room in question has windows facing the main area so you can see inside easily; there's a dark-haired woman perhaps in her mid-twenties on a laptop.
