Yui pulls out her phone, looking through her contacts with a sigh.

Yui: ... Boss, I gotta ask ya somethin’.

Anisa: Hm?

Yui: … When you ran the Mitakihara branch of the Bureau, how often didja meet higher ups from the main office?

Anisa: There was a liaison and a lot of electronic correspondence. Regular meetings, too, they were all government bureaucrats. Why are you asking?

Yui: … Let’s say the boss of the boss of the boss of all bosses called me, back at the lake.

Anisa: The Secretary of Homeland Security called you?

Yui: I dunno if she went that high. Woman by the name of Aya Mochizuki. Said she was the head honcho of the Sixth Bureau in Tokyo.

Anisa: (she shakes her head)  I‘ve never heard by anyone of that name before, Yui. The person in charge of the main office is one… mister Noburo? A cabinet member. Certainly not a woman.

Yui: …Not surprised she was lyin’ about that. Still, it was formally announced not long after we got back that they were pullin’ outta Mitakihara, right? So she wasn’t wrong either…

Anisa: We — The Bureau doesn’t have much of a choice. You saw those threats miss Yasuda was making.

Yui: Yeah… Hmm… Boss, this woman claimed to have some sort of time power. And she acted like it, too. Like she kept a journal or some shit. Maybe she was Chief of the Bureau at some point? Or… will be?

Anisa: … Yui, the Bureau was created as a part of my punishment. That’s the only reason why it exists. How could there be someone pulling the strings I have no knowledge of, present, future or past?

Yui: … I’m just tellin’ ya what I was told by this chick. But really? A government agency dedicated to Magical Girls created as divine retribution? Fuck… my head hurts.

Anisa: I… I mean, I think so.

Yui: But, uh… you said they were leavin’ blank spots, right? Giving you just enough to make you act and fuck up?

Anisa: Right… I was never told of this… miss Mochizuki.

Yui: She clued me into the name being bullshit right away, not that she needed to. Told me to call her… ‘Lun’.

Anisa: … Lun? Like, from that anime?

Toi: That’s Lum.

Yui: Heh. I dunno. Just wanted to see if ya knew who this Tokyo Sixth Bureau boss really was. Can’t spend all day worryin’ about some time traveling weirdo though. Sky falling, all that shit.

Anisa: (she sighs) Never a dull moment.

Yui: No rest for the wicked, an’ nothin’ more wicked than a group of Angels. Keep an ear out for any trace of this… “Aya Mochizuki” though, yeah? Anythin’ else, before I kick an omniscient girl’s ass?

Anisa: You sound like you’re taking my order.

Yui: I’m just doin’ what I feel is right. Punching Sis in her smug fuckin’ face feels right, right now.

Anisa: Have fun with that, then.

Toi: Put in a good word with the kids for me, would you?

Yui: Heh. I’ll see what I can do.

Anisa: Safe trip home, then. Don’t say hi to Alice for me.

Yui: … Yeah, that’s for the best. Thanks, boss. Vice-boss.

Yui gets up, heading towards and out the door to the cabin with a dismissive wave.
