Questions from Threads

Thread 67

• What kind of planning do you do beforehand when making these threads? [1]
  • I plan quite a bit, but i do leave room for unexpected choices. [2]

• So, for reference, would FoFA at any time previous to this *not* have been a quick route to Bad End, Tennessee? [3]
  • And yes, they would have! [4]

Thread 69

• Are you planning to kill Misaka? [5]
  • Hahaha! I always get asked that! [6]

Thread 71

• Also, can we salvage Madoka from this mess, bringing some peace of mind to Chiaki, or having an insane goddess in our retinue would prove to be far too dangerous to consider?
• What about Mirai? Is she salvageable? [7]
  • Rescuing Madoka at the momeny may noy be possible, but Mirai has a hope! [8]

Thread 72

• Will we ever see Hitomi in noir? [9]
  • In Sayaka's flashback, maybe! [10]

Thread 73

• How did you originally expect this scenario was going to turn out? Cat and Mouse with Pinky? Stealth mission all the way? [11]
  • Cat and Mouse with Pinky, actually, with lots of stealth action. Kind of those sections in games where if you get hit once by something chasing you, it's game over? D: [12]

• Obvious spoiler question, but is there any chance that Chiaki can be saved and brought back into the waking world without attracting Madoka's ire? [13]
  • There is always a chance, yes! [14]

• Did you already had some sort of Pinky story planned and did this bring that idea forward or was it totally out of the blue? [15]
  • I have to be honest, this was out of the blue! But I tried my best to adjust, so here we are D: [16]

Thread 75

• Did you originally plan for Midori to be this important to the quest, or did you just pull it all out of your ass when we got all attached to her? [17]
  • The latter, sir. I was fully expecting /tg/ to waste her upon contact! I had to do a lot of on-the-spot creation for her! [18]

• Huh. Then I wonder how far the plot has diverged from the original plan? [19]
  • he divergence isn't all that wild, but you certainly wouldn't have had Midori along for the ride! Quite a bit of the events would have turned out different. [20]

• Will we ever get to play as Murderface/Chiaki/Homura again? [21]
  • Her fate is in the players' hands, so it's quite possible. [22]

• So... would we have instead played this segment as Misaka or something? [23]
  • Looking at my notes, that's what would have happened. Her or Souji. [24]

• Are we to take that to mean that you'll be running the quest as Midori from here on out should we fail? Or will you end it? [25]
  • Well, that all depends on what happens, hahaha! [26]

Thread 77

• ...is there a chance? [27]
  • There's always one! Like they said, it's really more along picking the right choice and how to do it. Things can easily just as turn badly, though! [28]

• TELECOMMUNICATIONS TIME WITH SOUJI?
• [boosted by malal maybe, can she even do that?]
• actually, maybe we can goad her into fighting ribbon-homu
• or maybe both. [29]
  • That's possible, yes! [30]

• Will we see a silly Midori recreate the dreaded Whiskey Pancake? [31]
  • Hahaha! Well, that depends on what everyone picks! [32]

Thread 78

• is midori harem route possible? [33]
  • Hahaha! I, I'm not too sure! [34]

• did midori become main character of this quest all of the sudden? [35]
  • Well, this is her time to shine, but the main character still is Chiaki! [36]

Thread 79b

• give it to us straight [s]doc[/s] dec
• is green end still possible
• was watermelon end ever possible? [37]
  • Everything is possible if you only believe! [38]

• Whats Madoka going to do with Midori's soulgem?
• Is she going to put all the Homus into it? [39]
• Hahaha, you'll see! [40]

• Did we reach critical mass of death flags? [41]
  • I don't know about death flags, hahaha! [42]

Questions from Ask.fm

• Make MGNQ Kharnival Phantasm while you're at it!
  • Maybe for thread 300! [43]

• What would have happened if Midori decided to not go for the Ribbon Homu and try to assemble Chiaki with only three fragments in Siberia arc?‎
  • Hahaha! [44]

• The 20th has magical girls that have replaced completely an important person in the life of an important target? For example, the lover of a president/king/warmaster is in reality a Callidus that killed and impersonated her 5 years ago, and lives under this disguise until new intructions‎
  • Yes [45]

• "IF YOU DIDN'T FUCKING TRIP ON YOUR COSTUME AND BREAK YOUR ANKLE LIKE A, A DILDO, WE'D HAVE BROKEN THE OFFICIO RECORD!" What record was erika trying to break?
  • One of the training exercises for Eversor Squads basically. The Clear Completion record for that specific training exercises. It involves going into an entire 100-story building and clearing it of enemies, while it's on fire. [46]

• Considering the revelations of last thread, then it is logical to assume that the story that Malal told Yuma about her stopping the mindwipe of Murderface before it was irreversible during WPN is false, no? It was Malal who reverted Murderface into Moemura and she lied to Yuma, right?‎
  • Yes. [47]

• Just for the hell of it. What would happen to the TTO if Chaki did go completely into the goddess persona?
  • One of the possible outcomes I had planned in case voters picked that: Chiaki absorbs TTO, Pinky's Grief turns into a Soul Gem, she's reincarnated as Kaname Madoka, to lead all the Officios to destroy Chiaki. Players control her. [48]

• What would happen to the TTO if Chaki did go completely into the goddess persona?:: Is this referring to accepting TTO's offer at the start of the Akashic mission?
  • No, it was when Ahriman unlocked the wings. [49]

• Would that reincarnated Kaname Modaka have resembled Mal or the original? Or would she have been pretty much a blank slate starting out? This sounds honestly kind of interesting.
  • The original. And she'd have amber eyes, sharp teeth, and an appetite for raw meat. [50]

• Decu, what would have happened if we have reached Walpurgisnacht in the elevator in Siberia?
  • Chiaki's psyche gets temporarily subsumed in the combined, stitched-up psyche of every Magical Girl that has ever witched out [51]

• In the last thread, in the image were we see Mami drinking tea with a girl from the First whose back is facing us... that shoulder with the black ornament... that back with the black ribbon... isn´t that Homura?‎
  • Hahaha, no! [52]

• Well, if she is not Homura, then I suppose is Hazuki Amane, no?‎
  • Hahaha! [53]

• What are the chances of Midori and Wendy hooking up behind Chiaki's back?
  • 10000% [54]

• Weren't we supposed to do Mami Quest 2 at some point?
  • I have been advised that doing so will be too hot for /tg/
  • So it is being revised. [55]

• How canon is MGNQ 267?
  • 10000% Canon [56]

• I have been re-reading Yuma quest. What does Malal obvious transformation into Pinky at the end means? You have stated that Pinky is not Malal transformed, so why make Malal transforms step by step during her last conversation with Yuma? It will have some significance in Malal quest 2?
  • That will be revealed soon enough in Malal Quest 2, for sure! [57]

• "If you really want to take advantage of a world without it rising up to revolt against you, then you do it by gathering resources, rather than by force. The Incubators know this." Was the role of Incubators/Officios partly inspired by Shadowrun's Dragons/Corps or do they just share similarities?
  • I think a little bit of both, honestly, although they're more like Weyland-Yutani now [58]

• If Chiaki shoots down Wendy, who would she end up with?
  • No one. If she had shot down Wendy, chances are she'd snapped and also murdered Midori, too. Cue Max Payne 3 theme with the bass turned all the way up, and chromatic aberration to its maximum levels.[59]

• What would have happened if we have accepted the deal with TTO to return to our old life?
  • Hahaha!! [60]

• When you started MGNQ, what all did you have planned and ready to go? Characters, plot, what have you?
  • "Homura as Max Payne. Let's make this up as we go. POST POST POST" [61]

• Hydra dominatus?
  • "For the Blessed Lady." [62]

• Why is green hair the danger?
  • "The betrayal that will cut the deepest will always come from the hand holding yours. That is your fate, Warmaster. That is the fate of the one bearing your pathetic legacy." [63]

• How do you plan on completing MGNQ this year? Outside of Anon commiting sudoku or having you rush things, I don't see how it'll happen. I mean, yeah, Pinky told us very early on that someone had 5GW, but even if several people had multiple weapons I can't see this ending this year.
  • It sounds stupid and people will tell me I'm being too optimistic but with my new schedule, the progress will be faster! I'll concede that maybe it'll run until 2016 but I'm still hoping for a one-year resolution to this story! [64]

• How does it feel having so many people writing for MGNQ? Which ones are you MOST glad about writing for you, and 'all of them' is not an answer!
  • It is the best feel in the world!! And I really look forward to all of them! [65]

• What was the relation between the devil and strength shades that we destroyed and the actual Risa and Yuu? And were Risa and Best imouto (Yuu) affected by the attack on the shades?
  • Ahriman just used the immense power of the Golden Staff to summon shades of former Golden Weapon users, really. And they weren't affected, no! [66]

• how would things have gone if we hadn't chosen to return to being Chiaki and had chosen to remain like that? Also, was that us as the ribbon fragment, TTO herself, or someone other? Also, we keeping the dress as well as the wings then? Sorry for questionspam there
  • 1. The POV switches to Sayaka having to DEAL WITH AN ALL-KNOWING MURDERFACE. Magical Girl Rage Quest go.
  • 2. A combination of the Ribbon Fragment, TTO, and Chiaki.
  • 3. The dress is still there, yes, and the wings will still be there. You'll be able to ask the Three Stooges for help with them in the next thread. [67]

• We haven't locked Pinky out of redemption/purification by dallying around with idols, have we?
  • Of course not! The moment when she shuts up and stops acting friendly is the point where that has happened. [68]

• RE writeups- As someone who's never read them, while I don't see much of a problem with them, I think part of what people dislike about them is when characters from them become important, leading to "Who is this character, why are they important, why should I care, why is it like we should know them
  • I do agree that a writeup characer being involved in the quest does make people curious about them, but like I've said many times, the writeups themselves are backstory fluff. Chiaki won't know about them, and the decisions Chiaki will make involving them will never involve information that one can glean from reading the writeups. Writeups are all optional, and I've stressed to the writefags to always keep this in mind in their writing. [69]

• Would we have really gone back if we accepted the Transcendent One's deal?
  • That's a secret! [70]

• > Kaname "Law of the " Madoka > Her alternate self in MGNQ's world has a self-styled biker theme coincidence? or is it?
  • Hahaha! [71]

• What was, in your opinion, the finest moment of one (or more) of your characters?
  • Yuma doing nothing wrong is an easy answer for me to drop here, but I'll give another: Midori being able to put her trust in a homicidal maniac of a corrupted goddess to get Chiaki out of the nightmare she was in. And the players helping her enough to get through what should have been her death arc. [72]

• Suuuuure, blame Midori's survival on the players!
  • That is all on your heads! (Well,and impressing Malal enough that she was willing to take a gamble on Midori). [73]

• If 'Chiaki Matsuda' hadn't been chosen, what other names did you have in mind? Did you have a name planned if none of the posted ones looked right?‎
  • Not really! I was looking for a consensus with the name and it just fit! [74]

• Are you actually keeping track of all of the character relationship points we've been getting so far in the quest? Or is it more of a general "you did really well this time!" thing?‎
  • It's all tracked. Each point codified, tallied, and measured to compare against character point tables with cross-checked consequences and variables. [75]

• + HOW. MANY. MURDERFACE. POINTS. DID. WE. LOSE. FOR. FORGIVING. THAT. BARBECULEXUS? +
  • All the points! All the points.
  • (No, even if she's a broken psychopath Murderface kind of understands Yuma now.) [76]

• Will Chiaki ever meet Hazuki Amane, Warmaster of the First?
  • On the battlefield. [77]

• Tell us about some death flags we avoided, whether through correct decisions or never going that route in the first place!
  • I'll write them all out in the end, hahaha! [78]

• Are there any characters from other anime that you wanted to include in MGNQ, but couldn't work out how to get them in without blatant shoehorning?
  • Hmm. The fact is, you can reasonably work any character into MGNQ as long as (a) they're a girl and (b) they have some sort of preternatural/supernatural ability that can be handwaved as magic. That said, perhaps I'd like to work in Elly from Shadow Skill, that would be neat. [79]

• Have you ever thought about writing some posts out ahead of time? Like the first post and infodumps and such?
  • I do write the first post in advance! Infodumps, not really, but I may try it! [80]

• Where did the whole M-Idol/S-Idol thing come from?
  • I felt that it was a natural progression for idols, actually! Idols are already worshipped after all, for their looks and their singing and the feelings they incite from their fans with their concerts. So I thought about another role that idols can fulfill for their fans, which to be like a 'shared girlfriend' of sorts that they can either feel dominated or be dominating with. There's already precedent for this, I think, mainly the S-idol ones. [81]

• Ah... I'd always been wondering about that whole S-idol thing, it just seems really silly to me.
  • Hahaha, well, Iori has been shown in the official Puchimasu manga to have her 'hell shows' in which she berates and curses an appreciative 'M' crowd! But I can see how that's silly, yes! [82]

• In the beginning of MGNQ, you mentioned that we'd have 500 threads, a hefty order. Do you think we're on the path to jut around that same number, much more, or much less?
  • I think we're still on that path! Right now I'm trying to cut down on unnecessary scenes (too much dialogue and chatting) to get the plot stuff moving. It's really a bad habit of mine, hahaha, sorry! [83]

• What are some scrapped ideas you've thrown away for MGNQ, if they're not too spoilery? What brought you to the place you're at now with your story?
  • Hmm. The only ideas I've scrapped are basically stuff that people didn't pick or choose or negated due to their choices? That said I don't want to say anything because I may be able to use them eventually in the future. Sorry! [84]

• When are we gonna have Midori fuss with our hair? That was like, half the reason many of the Anons went with ponytail I believe.
  • Hahaha, soon! [85]

• What decision by anon has shocked you the most over the course of the quest? Besides anything related to waifuing Midori.
  • Entirety of Yuma Quest! That got me on my toes a whole lot. [86]

• Why do MGNQ characters have such trouble keeping their eyeballs inside of them? If I submit a writeup, she'll be blind as Zatoichi.
  • We only have two actual characters with just one eye, I think! [87]

• Will Ebola-chan make an appearance as a magical girl in MGNQ?
  • Ask Archival, he's in charge of the Nurglites! [88]

• How surprised were you that we picked Sayaka to be our Equerry instead of Kyouko, Mami, Midori, or literally anyone else?
  • Very surprised! But at the same time, I was thinking to myself 'it'd be awesome if they picked Sayaka, I love writing her being a bitch to Chiaki' ! [89]

• Speaking of Which i dunno if i asked this earlier but what other songs do you think fit the other characters?‎
  • Rules of Nature - Sayaka
  • I'm My Own Master Now - Raleigh
  • Red Sun Over Paradise - Totally Awesome Sweet Alabama Liquid Snake
  • That's what I think! [90]

• And what about Malal and the three stooges?(sorry for bugging you with questions but i really like wondering about the theme songs of characters i like)‎
  • I think It Has To Be This Way is a good fit for Malal? Or I'm My Own Master Now. That's a good one for her, too. [91]

• Are we going to have a Kyoko MAXIMUM WEDDING NIGHT story arc at some point?‎
  • I guess if people vote for it! [92]

• During the chiaki barrier arc, what would have happened if we went into the Deli Heal Agency?
  • Brief encounter with the Transcendent One! [93]

• How long until we get a flashback within a flashback?
  • You mean Malal's POV of WPN? Soon enough! [94]

• More than a quarter of the quest has been flashbacks already! Pls don't take our Chiaki time away again so soon ;_;
  • We're not going to have any for a while, hahaha! [95]

• Why are the different magical girl types referred to as 'ranks' rather than 'classes'? It's something that's always bugged me. 'Rank' generally denotes some kind of hierarchy involved, for example, Eversors are a higher rank than Vindicares. That's just something I decided, sorry, hahaha! I thought 'Class' was a bit too game-like, and rank seemed a bit more formal. [96]

• Would it be alright to write a Vanus that has more in common with the 40k variety - ie, mastermind planner, rather than pencil pusher?
  • Sure! [97]

• If Spider-Man was a magical girl, would she be a Venenum because chemistry/inventions, or an Eversor because SM can lift ten tons?
  • Probably an Eversor! [98]

• If Batman became a magical girl, what class and power would (s)he be? Would (s)he get along with Chiaki?
  • I would say Eversor or Callidus, with the fear thing. I don't think they'll get along at all! [99]

• Before we witched out in Siberia, was Pinky trying to warn us about the witch-out bomb thing?
  • Yes. [100]

• How much behind-the-scenes quest knowledge do the writefags have? Who knows the most aside from yourself?
  • I tell them what they need to know, but I would say Wendy and Archival knows a few hints about where this ride is headed! [101]

• If Oriko killed Chiaki, would Arhiman's spirit try to manipulate/control Oriko to make her kill Kharn next?
  • Most probably! Ahriman is bent on taking out the Ninth. [102]

• Did Pinky knew Malal was Madoka? Did any of the Homus? How do they feel about that?

Pinky didn't, but she really hated Malal. The other Homus knew because Chiaki told them. [103]

• When will we set Sayaka on fire?
  • When the option presents itself! [104]

• Was Sayaka Opening the box in the Witch-Core procurement mission her deathflag?
  • Hahaha! [105]

• So Green haired girls are all suffering?So that means Chiaki really will suffer more?
  • Maybe! Hahahaha! [106]

• What song did braids play on the piano?
  • It is a mystery! [107]

• Has a Warmaster ever gotten pregnant on the job?
  • Stranger things have happened! [108]

• Will the noir quest end with someone enjoying a drink with Chiaki at her desk and then Chiaki shoots herself?
  • I don't see that ending happening, really. Chiaki's not the sort to self-destruct like that, not in the way the players have built her up. [109]

• Will we ever a get a flashback where we play as Murderface?
  • Of course! [110]

• Will we ever get to see Ekaterina on camera? Or is she boring compared to Kharn?‎
  • Perhaps in a future flashback! [111]

• Would Murderface kept the Piano in-tact if we had let her play it?
  • Of course! [112]

• What would have Dildoes and Murderface have played if Chiaki hadn't asked Braids to play?
  • You'll have to find out the next time Chiaki's near a piano! [113]

• When is Kharn coming back?
  • Soon enough! [114]

• What about the Mami paranoia from the last 50ish threads distracting Anon from picking up on the hints you might be trying to give them? Does that bother you, or do you think that you just need to hit them with a bigger brick? Or are you just going to let Anon suffer from possibly barking up tree?‎
  • I follow the vote, but I always make sure everyone is at least armed with the knowledge they need to make decisions - within reason, of course! [115]

• I was reading the first thread again the other day, and I noticed that we had Kaname Madoka's phone number in our contacts list. I know that it was pretty early on, but what would have happened if we had called? An ominous answering machine perhaps?
  • A recording of Kaname Madoka screaming while she's being murdered. [116]

• Did Midori get a stern talking to by Mami or others after pulling off the kissing stunt in front of Wendy?
  • Of course! After flashing her a wink and a thumbs up. [117]

• Why don't we give Chiaki the best of both worlds - short hair AND a ponytail?
• Isn't a ponytail already like that? Although I do still like the first haircut I made for her, though. [118]

• How many friends/enemies did we get for kneecapping that trainee meguca?
  • You'll be able to figure it out in the quest itself, hahaha! [119]

• Have you ever had to scrap/put off plotlines, ones that you already put some effort into, because you had a better idea later on?
  • Yes! Although some where Wendy and Archival had to talk me out of them because they were 'too lewd' or 'too healing' or even 'there are too many variables involved' [120]

• How come so many homus exist at one time?
  • It's the Transcendent One's fault. [121]

• Will dildos get to meet Sayaka? CAN WE EXPOSE OTHERS TO THE VOICES IN OUR HEAD?
  • Hahaha, if Chiaki lets Dildos take over, sure. [122]

• If Dildos and Sayaka met what would happen?
  • Both would be at each other's throats in minute one. At least Chiaki and Sayaka can reach and accord and becoming at least friendly with each other - Dildos is completely unapologetic about being a dildo, a Tendou Souji(Kamen Rider Kabuto) type. Aloof, prideful and disdainful - traits that Sayaka just hates a lot. [123]

• Will we ever get to see Mami wreck someone's shit?
  • That is around the corner. Please anticipate it! [124]

• If MGNQ were to have an official soundtrack, which composer d'you think is best?
  • Brendon Small, Yuki Kajiura...Maximum The Hormone? They'd be great. Also, Kärtsy Hatakka, Kimmo Kajasto and Marko Saaresto (from the Max Payne trilogy). [125]

• when can we see the officio uniforms in action?
  • In formal occasions! The nearest one coming up is Warmaster Chiaki "Murderface" Matsuda The First's ratification! [126]

• Are there any magical girls you have specifically NOT added to MGNQ? If so, why not?‎
  • Well, believe it or not I just cherry pick Magical Girls from the series they come from! A good example would be the Sailor Senshi, I didn't take all of them wholesale. I try to pick only the ones that I think will be good to place in MGNQ, to contribute as a character rather than just a reference or a name. And not just main characters either! [127]

• If MGNQ were a cop dramedy, would Kyoko work with a K-9 Unit?
  • Definitely. She'd have a huge menacing Ovcharka with great shaggy fur that is just a big sweetie and loves to cuddle until she tells it to kill, in which case it would eat faces off. Its name would be, always, 'Spike'. [128]

• What say you to the folks who believe Kharn has outlived her usefulness and overstayed her welcome?
  • She still has a part to play! [129]

• What exactly did the Procedure do to Chiaki? Had she gone full FoFA with the Golden Deagle pre-treatment what could have happened?
  • A lot of dead friends. [130]

• How much loot did Chiaki got from the battle against The Sixteenth? do they even have some stuff left?
  • Chiaki didn't steal much from the Sixteenth, besides the LQ-48is. [131]

• Would it be possible for Yandere Midori to pull a Homura and fuck up reality even more than it already is in pursuit of her waifu?

• • Doing that would involve Pinky and a whole lot of bad juju. Probably not, but to a yandere, logic is just a wall of flesh you can tear through with your bare hands and teeth. [132]

• Does this mean we can get Midori to the revered yandere status of Yuno? What about Wendy?
  • It'll take a lot of abuse for that. [133]

• How many characters are based on friends/writefags/drawfags? I count Midori, Malal, Kumatora, Souji, and a super secret one that I found recently. No need to list who they are, just how many are there?
  • Quite a handful! I can't count them offhand, hahaha. [134]

• When are other officios going to be relevant again?
  • Most likely after the Prophet arc, but there's going to be flashbacks to help things along. This is why I like writeups, so people can find out about other Officios while the main story is going! [135]

• Let's say for some reason Heartcatch Squad's punishment got left up to Sayaka, and Erika started mouthing off to Sayaka the way she did to Chiaki. What would Sayaka have done?
  • A public beating. A horrific beating. Sayaka is all about justice and doing what's right, but she also has a very mean temper. [136]

• Have you ever had to scrap an old idea you liked because it no longer fit with current MGNQ canon?
  • Definitely! [137]

• Have you ever thought about how you can't of teary dramatic slow death scenes with megucas just because it's really hard to have a soul gem slowly become destroyed (sans witching out) and such? Do you think this is a good thing?
  • I have thought about this a bit, but there are lots of ways a meguca can die slow and dramatically (such as a magical disease/rot that gets onto their Soul Gem and slowly tears it apart). If a Soul Gem is broken in half or crushed, the Magical Girl gets a semblance of death before she disappears. That kind of thing.
  • Although I would say this is a good thing too, because it's easy to overdramatize a teary slow death scene, and kind of cheapens it. [138]

• Was MMxMM published in other universes? How Did Braids and/or Dildoes react when they found it?
  • Nah, MM x MM is MGNQ-timeline exclusive. [139]

• When will this be part of the quest? [140]
  • Hahaha, maybe! [141]

• All of your girls are forced into a fight to the death. If nobody holds back, who would win?
  • The Transcendent One, because she has the least left to lose. [142]

• Pinkies reaction to Girl A's mindrape?
  • She basically is going to feast on Yuma's soul very slowly, to make it all the more excruciating. [143]

• Did the guest special with Hero Quest have real repercussions in MGNQ?
  • Yep! [144]

• How is Chiaki supposed to get the golden moon when Rena has it? And how can Seibah be trapped in it when we already have Arty?
  • It'll all be revealed soon! Hahaha! [145]

• Will Chiaki live the day to become an aunty or big sister figure to Kharn's twins?
  • Of course! She'll be their godmother, hahaha. Kharn will be adamant about that. [146]

• If Iori was a sleeper magical girl, would she witch out if she put two and two together?
  • If any organization had enough balls to make a popular idol be a sleeper meguca, they'd be pro enough to put some failsafes for that. [147]

• Which meguca is secret bonus boss?
  • If I tell you then it wouldn't really be a secret now would it? Hah, I'm on to you! [148]

• Yuu wasn't a Kilgore Bride, was she? Or did she get... removed... before that point?‎
  • Oh, no, she wasn't. She went to Varrigan City specifically to challenge Kilgore. [149]

• Iori saw NECO's picture of Chiaki kissing Midori. But did Iori realize that Midori was the girl who assisted the Otaku hit?
  • I would say no, but she does remember green hair. It's fuzzy to her, because of trauma. [150]

• Where would the Iori route gone if she didn't get NTR'd by the Green? Were there, are there still flags for her Contracting?
  • Hahahaha! [151]

• ...can....can we still choose the Pinky exclusive route?
  • The time to be able to do so will come soon enough! Hahaha! [152]

• If we had decided to go for the Pinky exclusive route, what would have happened?
  • You become the BBEG that the entire magical world will only speak of in whispers. With Wendy and Midori as your collared sex slaves and footrests, all the Officios will come together as one to destroy Chiaki Matsuda, the Angel Slayer reborn. [153]

• Just a random thought, but have you ever given any thought to a Pinky flashback at somepoint?
  • I have, hahaha! But, hmm, I'm kind of hesitant about it, because it's going to be a series of threads of complete crazy! [154]

• Is the term "watch-wearing dildo" original to MGNQ or a derivative/taken from somewhere?
  • It's not! It's taken from Metalocalypse. Using the dildo as a pejorative is basically what's Metalocalypse all about. [155]

• Were the Black Wings of Corrosion ever planned as a thing Chiaki could eventually use?
  • It still is! [156]

• How much of the plot/"the plan" changed after Rebellion?
  • I am being totally honest when I say I was creeped out with how Rebellion matched up to my story notes, and what I have planned in the future. I did not have to change any major stuff at all. [157]

• Are we going to have battletournaments in MGNQ?
  • Yes. [158]

• Will we ever see a full blown Quest centered around QB and his Corporation? Ya know, sorta like Spice & Wolf MGNQ-style.‎
  • That's certainly possible! It's one of the many perspective-switch quests I'm contemplating to break up the action with Chiaki some. [159]

• If somehow NECO never ended up leaving the silent room alive would Noriko really take up the blog?
  • Yes, she would have! And obviously a lot of people would be really mad at Chiaki by then. [160]

• If we max out Misaka points will Tiny Pete be made into a dreadnought for Chiaki when she is inevitably broken?
  • Contemptor class Chiaki who will never feel the warmth of boobs or butts again. It's HEALING [161]

• Somethings been bugging me about the Sayaka Sab quest. Why did Kirika seem so different during it? A total bitch, yes, but she seemed like a drunken lush, which... honestly seems a little out of character, for her.‎
  • She hastes flying. She needed to get drunk first. [162]

• If we max out our Noriko points, does she teach us how to reflexively become greasy, like a frog? That kind of skill could help us out in grapples and tight spaces!
  • Yes. She will teach Chiaki how to dress like a civilian slob. [163]

• Transcendent One route when?
  • Post-MGNQ, hahaha! Honestly I'm not so sure. [164]

• Are we ever going to meet Mami's boyfriend in quest?‎
  • >implying [165]

• Did Malal ever have a chance to be pulled out of Chiaki's barrier?
  • Yes, but she'd fade away after a couple of minutes. [166]

• in that case, Inquisitor Kharn x Malal Bequin quest when
  • Hahaha! That's actually interesting! I'll think about this! [167]

• We want to see Gork and Mork.
  • And you'll see them soon enough! [168]

8can we have a little meanwhile story when kharn recieved her conquest goods someday?

• • Of course! [169]

• Do you generally stick to your plans as far as characters going about their business off-screen or have you ever changed things due to some other person giving you a good idea?
  • I generally stick to my plans, but I get ideas not only from other people but also from other media, so I try not to plan too far ahead in terms of what characters will do. [170]

• Will Iori be relevant again?
  • Of course! [171]

• What comes after this church/prophet stuff? Is Canada going to become relevant?
  • I can't talk about the former, but I can guarantee that alp Officios will be relevant. [172]

• Has Mami's ribbon still been on Wendy since after she left the meeting with Chiaki and Sayaka?
  • Yes. [173]

• Will Chiaki meet Kharn lineage?
  • Definitely! [174]

• Actually, are there any Primarchs you don't really have any plans for showing up in MGNQ?
  • Hahaha, I really can't say. [175]

• Do you have any sort of tagline for your stories? Some underlying trend present in all the related parts that can be summed up with a quote?
  • "SHE FUCKED IT ALL UP" [176]

• Does this mean Souji "Get Kharn Ice Cream in a snowstorm" Quest is canceled? I can see the man rise to the occasion for his waifu!‎
  • Hahaha, of course it's not cancelled! [177]

• Kharn needs a family reunion with all of her... sisters. Y/N?
  • Y [178]

• You're not setting up Mami to play Chiaki like The Boss are you? You wouldn't be that cruel, right?
  • http://imgur.com/WyEo9Av [179]

• What writefag writes the 13th?
  • That should be under Archivalfag's purview. [180]

• Did we earn any Sayaka points for showing her our timestop nightmare realm?
  • I would definitely say so. She understands Chiaki a bit more, now. [181]

• If we'd never taken in Midori and had still pushed Iori away, who do you think would be warming Chiaki's bed now?
  • No one. Maybe a bottle of Kong. Hahaha! [182]

• will chiaki ever experience mami pampering day again, now that she is in a (complicated) relationship?
  • Of course! [183]

• Will we ever see Nagisa/Bebe in a flashback thread? Or does the timeline. not go that far back?‎
  • It's possible she'll be there in a flashback or two! [184]

• Arty vs Mordred saberbowl when? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4q0wX-qxfoE
  • PENDRAGONBOWL FUCKING CONFIRMED GET HYPE [185]

• During waluiginight the officios fought the witch forms of the primary cast members, and Yuma and co were tasked with offing wafflehouse night. Instead of upside-down clockthing we got Kharn going full Khorne. But if Kharn lives in the upper levels of siberia, down below, who was phone?
  • It is a mystery. (It'll be answered in Malal's side of Waluiginight!) [186]

• Has Pinky loved Chiaki since 12000 years ago? Speaking of Pinky, will we see her again soon?
  • She has never stopped loving Chiaki! Also, yes! Very soon! [187]

• What are Chiaki and Midori's Witches? Is there a chance they can face themselves due to the content in the Eleanor Write-ups?
  • Hahaha! [188]

• If the time comes, will you be able to kill off a main character in MGNQ?
  • No revival asspulls? Of course! I'll follow the votes! [189]

• Kumatora and Alondight fight when
  • I don't really see the two coming to blows, although we never know! [190]

• Wait, Fabiola is still relevent?
  • Yes, of course! [191]

• Are other characters ever going to get early MGNQ-style Title-cards? Like the ones where Chiaki is just standing there with Yellow tape hanging "Do not cross a magical girl with nothing to lose" I kinda miss how you periodically updated it with the little details, honestly.
  • Hahaha, well, I suppose I can get to those when I get som efree time! But the new OP will have little details as time goes on. [192]

• You get to pick one song to sum up all of MGNQ. What is it?
  • Show me How To Live, by Audioslave. [193]

• Cherno Alpha quest happened inside the shield, didn't it? Sasha is gonna feature in Souji's "Get Ice Cream for Mama Kharn" quest, isn't he?‎
  • Hahaha, that's a bit too far-fetched! [194]

• When was the last time Chiaki used a grief seed? Does she need as many seeds now as she did before the operation?
  • It was a few threads ago I think! And no! [195]

• How much different would the plot be if we never took in the green stray that we shot in the kneecaps?
  • Very different. [196]

• I wanted to explore one of the time loops where Homura offs herself (since it seems there are more than just ONE Homu). The Officio Assassinorum could even exist, making it easier to deal with the setting. But mostly go into Homuras psyche as she breaks~‎
  • This could work, but the Officio Assassinorum only exists on the main story's timeline! [197]

• How much of your time goes in planning MGNQ, how detailed is this planning and how far into the future does it go?
  • Hmm. I would say around 30% of my time goes into planning MGNQ? The planning only goes so far as broad strokes plus some neat details I try to come up for everyone, and alternate things that I can use when a vote goes this way and that. The ending is also planned, but like I said, the votes can always change how everything is, so what I do is to keep just the 'spirit' of what I want to do in mind, and the rest will be up to how the rest of the quest is played. I try not to get attached to a certain scene or a path too much as well, even though they can be fun to implement. It's also the players' story, after all, not just mine! [198]

• How many time loops did Dildos say we went through to get to the current one? And are any of the previous loops going to be visited? Cause if not, I...have an idea.‎
  • 10,940+ something loops, I think! And yes, I think we can go with your idea if you're thinking what I'm thinking, hahaha! [199]

• When are we getting a drug-induced adventure? Like Chiaki consuming a dose of psilocybin by accident.
  • Her dreams are trippy enough! [200]

• What would have happened if Midori styled our hair instead of Mami? Would we have gotten different choices? What is the best Chiaki Hair-style and why is it bobcut?
  • Different choices, yes. You'd have gotten haircuts styled after her favorite anime characters, for one. Also, bobcut is best because it's sleek yet stylish [201]

• when do we get to design our own hat?
  • You already have! [202]

• Is Chiaki going to get more girl trouble?
  • Maybe! It all comes down to votes! [203]

• During Kharn Siberian Story Hour, we picked the Murderer, Betrayer, Ghost. Will we/ have already hear the other two?
  • They'll still be heard, definitely! [204]

• When are we going to see Risaball?
  • In the InterOfficio Risaball Tournament Cup arc! [205]

• When will Midori call Chiaki shempai?
  • When she gets drunk again! [206]

• When is Misaka building a Metal Gear?
  • She needs a viable wreck first! [207]

• You give out a lot of really cool info on here and just in other random media, but will everything come around, or is it just miscellaneous world building that may never show up in the MGNQ proper?
  • I plan to have everything I reveal here be relevant in MGNQ in one way or another, yes. [208]

• Did Iori ever have a chance?
  • Yes! [209]

• Out of the 20 numbers you could have chosen for Chiaki's Officio, why 9? Do you like the Blood Angels Legion, or was it something else?
  • The Blood Angels are pretty cool, but since Kyuubey is the Ninth Incubator...I just followed the numbers! [210]

• What would it take for that New Quest+ to happen?
  • There'll be a vote choice in the future, and while it won't be obvious at first, it'll really feel like a very major choice! Watch out for it! [211]

• Why was Kharn end never an option?
  • Why must we be forever taunted by the fact that we couldn't get with best girl? Hahaha, well, perhaps in New Game+ ! [212]

• How common is the sight of a 'mortal' killing a magical girl?
  • Until Kaneda Madoka or Nicole Touchdown? Not very common. Very rare. [213]

• magical girl beauty pageant when?
  • Hahaha! I'll try to see if I can work that in. I haven't thought of that! Thanks! [214]

• When is Chiaki Matsuda going full AI YO?
  • When she has lost everything [215]

• Has Iori seen NECO's photo of Chiaki and Midori sucking face yet? What was her/will be her reaction to it?
  • Not very good. [216]

• When will Chiaki lick some soul gems again?
  • When the players vote for it! [217]

• When are we getting magical girls in lewd symphogear?
  • The Fourth has a few of them I think. Namely the one with the death metal attacks? I forget her name. [218]

• Out of the twenty Officios, the Fifth, the Eleventh, the Twelfth, the Fifteenth, the Eighteenth, and the Nineteenth have no stated functions. Are there any plans for these Officios?
  • The Eighteenth and Nineteenth is already squared away for other plans, the Twelfth is sorta-but-not locked away already, but the rest have nebulous fates still. [219]

• Will we ever see a Chiaki-Yuu Kamehameha? Because that would be awesome. And is Yuus master really Roshi?
  • If Chiaki trains and uses the gauntlets a whole lot, yes. [220]

• when will we see the inventory page again!?
  • When it's checked! [221]

• Will Madoka's brother make a appearance? Or Junko and her husbando?
  • Well, we'll see! Hahahaha! [222]

• which girls did not feel the tension before the alcohol was brought in?
  • Kyoko, because Kyoko is low tension all the time (in that she can't read the mood most of the time). [223]

• Is Mordred ever going to get the chance to redeem herself?
  • Most likely. [224]

• Who writes about the Seventeenth?
  • Archivalfag, my best buddy! [225]

• When are the necrons going to be tricked by Pinky to become soulless slaves for her cause?
  • What! There's no Necrons in MGNQ! [226]

• When was the last time Chiaki got to actually shoot something?
  • I think last time was the...Big Shell mission? I think so! [227]

• Will we get to see Misaka going grocery shopping with DreadPete?
  • Yes, that's pretty much my idea of Tiny Pete Quest, a day following Misaka around. [228]

• monmusume magical girl lewds when
  • Not for a long time! [229]

• What happened to Oriko?
  • She turned evil! [230]

• Is Misaka going to be showing up again soon? I miss her
  • Most definitely! [231]

• What is the chance of pairing best mamis and best assets?
  • It's going to be a very uphill struggle. [232]

• NECO has teased a few times in threads about the possibility of a NECO Quest, is that something you have planned?
  • I would say so, yes! [233]

• When will we get to play as Kyoko again?
  • In an upcoming mission! [234]

• Will we ever get to see what Kyoko and Sayaka are like when they are alone together? Not even in a lewd way, I just mean doing couple stuff like shopping or stabbing people.
  • Well, I suppose I can do another Kyoko flashback that focuses on a single day with Sayaka. [235]

• Did Kyoko keep the box from the Big Shell? It better still be in her inventory next time we play as her! lol
  • She still has The Box in her inventory, yes! [236]

• Can we do paperwork again? That part was fun.
  • Chiaki hasn't delegated her paperwork duties to anyone permanently, so it'll come up in a vote decision! [237]

• What did poor Yayoi ever DO to you, anyway? Why did you choose her?‎
  • I just chose the cutest idol I knew! [238]

• Speaking of Lori and Sayakar, will the next April Fools thread be a Magical Girl Auto Quest, where all the characters are vehicles of some type?
  • That'd be a bit difficult to run. I may just stick to Tiny Pete Quest then! [239]

• All this talk about NECO and Kumatora. How long until we get what everyone's REALLY waiting for; IoriQuest?
  • Lorry Quest, where you are a truck [240]

• Can KumaQuest just be Office Lady Quest part 2? That was really fun! lol‎
  • Really? It'd be like 'doing stuff for Midori-sempai' the entire thread. Also have her order you around while you watch her draw porn. [241]

• How long until we get to see Kumatora beat someone up?
  • Soon(TM). Or if I get a chance to run KumaQuest! [242]

• How many people know that Chiaki's gimped since she can't use timestop freely like she used to? Just her inner circle?
  • I don't think anyone else knows besides her. Maybe Sayaka and Kyoko's noticed that she's not being liberal with it like she used to, but everyone else thinks that she's just a timestop murderer kinda gal. [243]

• I looked through the first thread of MGNQ, and I noticed that Mami had a scar across her neck. Was that meant to be relevant?
  • Hahaha, well, I wasn't really expecting for MGNQ to run past that first thread, so I just drew the stuff I liked for it. It doesn't mean anything other than to terrify! [244]

• If someone is interested in making write-ups, how do we contact you.
  • Through my email, mostly! Send me a line at my gmail address (yak(dot)deculture(dot)no(dot)future). [245]

• Even though you forgot, I'll ask you what I asked everyone else. How well would a Sayain fare against a magical girl or witch, in both the MGNQ and PMMM universes?‎
  • I've never really thought of that before! [246]

• Any solo boss/witch battles in the future?
  • Most definitely! [247]

• decu decu decu NECOquest when?
  • It really depends if the storyline necessitates it, or a voting decision brings it into play. Maybe a NECO flashback, but... [248]

• Is MGNQ still in Namek? How many threads do you think you'll need until it ends?
  • It's not! I'm trying to my best to make sure something is done every thread. Work schedule isn't helping much. I would say at least 100 more threads would do it...I'm sorry! [249]

• Any chance of having a Clara Doll Quest? If so, which doll’s POV will we follow?
  • MANUKE, probably![250]
