Questions from Ask.fm

• Are there any megucas in places of power outside of Officio control, like queens, princesses or politicians?
  • Of course! [1]

• Is there any spy from the Twentieh in the Ninth? And in case the answer is yes... IS ONE OF THE GIRLS THAT WE KNOW????!!!!!
  • It's rumored that the Twentieth has spies in all the Officios. The only way to be sure is to purge your entire Officio down to the last girl, and then kill her just to be double-sure! [2]

• Which religions correspond to red and blue truth?
  • I'm not sure if I can point out any equivalents, but the faith that believes in the Blood Knight's teachings would most likely be somewhat Viking-ish? Valhalla, fighting, drinking, so on. As for the First Knight, it would be hardcore Crusader catholic + Imperial Creed, with a strong emphasis of crushing heretics under your heel. [3]

• In the MGNQ universe, who popularized the use of "dildos" in the 9th Officio and what is it's definition in context? Just an expletive?
  • That honor goes directly to Sayaka, after one of her visits to the Eighth. She didn't know the exact meaning of it (and she still doesn't) but she figured it was a really unique way to call someone a fucking idiot. And so it's taken root in the Ninth as part of the vernacular there, to call someone out on their lack of skill, common sense, or just being an idiot in general. [4]

• Does the first officio issue meguca holidays?
  • Yep! There are holidays like Emperor's Day, Day of the First Knight, holidays where the Megucas can take breaks! [5]

• What does the ideal Eversor breakfast look like?
  • High protein, high energy! Meat, preferably rare and bloody, with energy drinks! [6]

• So, like, raw meat? Freshly killed meat? Meat that's alive right up until it's consumed?
  • Yep! Of course Sayaka just cooks a lot of steak for Kyoko. She's trying to make her eat healthier so instead of beef it's usually tuna or salmon. [7]

• Sayaka hasn't be introduced to the 10/10 meat that is chicken I see. (red meat is supposed to be bad for you yes?)
  • It's bad for sedentary folk, yeah. But if you're really building muscle (and have a hyperactive Eversor metabolism) then protein is protein. [8]

• 2 questions: Does the Church of the Blessed Lady have things like Saints? Did the Blessed Lady religion exit before the arrival of the 20 Officio-leading Incubators?
  • The Church does indeed have things like saints. And yes, it did! [9]

• Who made the futa formula and why?
  • Amber Nakajima did. "For kicks." [10]

• Does the futa formula work on non-magical girls?
  • Yes but it's generally not recommended because it stays permanent
  • I had to think about that in the middle of doing my reports at work
  • What am I doing [11]

• When will the Futa Formula show up in quest?
  • It's called Solution H anon [12]

• I have two question DECULTURE! Do magical girls of the nineth read teen age novels(like Fifty shades)? AND will sempai ever notice me?
  • MM x MM is the Fifty Shades of Magical Girls, Anon. It is that trashy.
  • And yes, sempai will notice you. Eventually. [13]

• How much does your Officio/Officios pay its employees?
  • It's hard to pin it down to exact yen or dollar values, but suffice to say trainees or newcomers get a generous weekly allowance, active members on duty get a monthly salary based on rank, performance and mission output.
  • Chiaki's pay grade is basically The Officio's Bank account = Her bank account. She just needs Kyuubey's signed permission for any big purchases. [14]

• Given Chiaki's popularity in the 9th, are there any MGs who have attempted to mimic her mannerisms or clothing styles? Were there any trends started by Chiaki?
  • Some Magical Girls tried out the cigarettes, whiskey and painkillers thing, but found that smelling like a spit-encrusted ashtray in some hole-in-the-wall bar on the wrong side of town wasn't all it was cracked up to be.
  • There was also a lot of broken wrists from people trying to one-hand a Desert Eagle.[15]

• Does the 9th Officio have a war vehicle?
  • Yep! [16]

• Are Eversor's taught to fight with missing limbs? Is that something that is trained in some Officios? Or is it just something you'll have to figure out on your own when it happens?‎
  • A little bit of both. I think Sayaka intentionally lops off an arm or a leg from her most promising trainees when they go up for multi-opponent sparring rounds. The Sixth does something similar in that regard. [17]

• Do Eversors also get attitude training? Or do they all just have extreme personalities?
  • They have anger management classes. [18]
