Judith

"Try to keep in mind though, that the island's Grief Seed supply is finite. With our current consumption, plus the addition of one, maybe two, new inexperienced Magical Girls to take care of..."

Judith frowned at that, not liking the sound of that! Margie could really be such a downer sometimes....though to be fair, she kinda did have a point. Still...she was sure they could work things out! They were Magical Girls, after all! They could do anything! Plus, having one or two more girls fighting alongside them would make taking down Witches a lot easier.

"Well then, that aside, shall we be off."

"Of course!" Judith beamed at Margaret, eagerly taking her friend's offered hand, intertwining her fingers with Margaret's own. Hand-in-hand, the duo walked out of the house, Judith taking care to make sure she had her purse on her (and her house keys) before leaving.

"So," Judith spoke up after a moment, the two of them walking along the sidewalk, over to the nearest bus stop. Taking the bus would be the quickest way to get over to the Cinemax movie theater, which was closest to their current location. "What movie do you want to see, Margie? I don't have a preference, either way....I mean, I guess I'd love to see the new Disney movie! I've been meaning to watch that for awhile, but, well, I'm fine with watching whatever you wanna see!"

The slightly younger girl beamed over at her best friend, squeezing her partner's palm. At the same time, she felt a little tingle of delight course through her. She always loved holding hands with Margie...or just being affectionate with her, in general. It was hard not to, after all! Margie was...she just made her feel so....giddy, inside.

Before meeting Margaret, Judith had never really been in love before. She'd realized when she was maybe nine or ten, that she was singularly attracted to girls. But she hadn't felt any honest to goodness romantic love for any of the girls she had ever found attractive. Crushes yes, but never anything more. She'd had a lot of crushes over the years following her discovery....and, w-well, it was embarrassing to think about now, but she'd had a really bad crush on her Social Studies teacher back in sixth grade. But...that's all they had ever been. Crushes. Simple childish fancies from when she had been too young to completely understand what real love felt like.

With Margie...it was different! It had started out as a simple crush with Margie, sure! But it had become something more over time. The green-haired girl had never been in love before, but she was completely sure that was what she felt for her Puella Magi partner. She was head-over-heels in love with Margaret Faust...a fact that equally delighted her and embarrassed her at times.

She just hoped that maybe, someday...Margie might return the love she felt for her.
