You mean your uncanny ability to impersonate a disco ball?

Well I would certainly hope so, because that'd hardly be something I'd consider a secret worth keeping.

I do a lot more than transform into a walking rainbow. [Pouting.]

[But okay, he actually gets a serious answer. Because this is something she does feel pretty strongly about.]

If any of my enemies from other worlds showed up here, my life would be hell if they knew who I was. Having two identities is the only thing keeping me and the people important to me safe. Anyone who knows who I am could be in danger if they showed up here and found out about it.

...I don't have to answer that.

[Because she doesn't like talking to people as herself. It's harder, and she feels more vulnerable, and she hates it.]

[But she's hardly telling that to Pretty-boy here.]

Look, a magical girl has to make connections somehow, right? Besides, I can't use magic like this, so how could I possibly defend myself otherwise?

Did you seriously forget that invasion that happened? And besides that, I've been drafted before. You really think a tiny Japanese girl stands a chance against those third party guys without being a magical girl?

Oh. Right. Well... the fact that it happened at all is proof enough that I'd need to use them at some point, right? I mean, come on, we're hardly safe here.

...how the hell could you when you look like that? I mean, Hoshikyo isn't that great, but at least I still look human. Mostly.

[Kari takes a surprised step back at first, but when the changing seems to be over and Josh is essentially unchanged -- save for the age, of course -- she... isn't really sure what to say.]

[Oh, wait, yes she is.]

...so you're like that kid from Yu-Gi-Oh who can spontaneously hit puberty on command? Why even keep that a secret?

Omniscience? Seriously?

[This is not the face of a believer.]

Oh really? Prove it.

[Just. Staring.]

...okay. So you have some freaky floaty mind powers. But how about the other thing?

Okay, that last thing? Please never do that, like, ever. [Even if he's not serious, that's not something she'd want to mess with.]

But you know, why not. Let's see if you can figure out what I'm thinking right now.

[Someone else doesn't think that's a very good idea.]
