Kyubey Wants YOU! - The Meme

Kyubey Wants YOU!
- The Meme -

Warning - There are many, many spoilers for the entire series/canon under the cut! Please do not read this meme if you want to avoid spoilers for the entire Puella Magi series.

imagesCA94GKT2

So one day, a remarkably cute scarlet eyed creature comes up to your character, and gives them an offer it hopes they can't refuse. They'll grant almost any wish your character desires, if  your character makes a contract with him and becomes a Puella Magi (or Puer Magi), destined to fight Witches.

The setting of this meme is pretty simple - One of the characters is an Kyubey (including AUs and crossovers version) and they are trying to make a contract with the other character. Do you want to try RP-ing a Trickster Wishgranter? Does your character have any wish that they would like to grant at any cost? Well, this is the meme for you, in that case!



[How To]

1. Post as your character. (Please write down the name and canon/fandom of the character in the subject line, and also if they're canon, AU, crossover or OC, etc. Please also write down preferences, etc)

2. Choose a wish and a scenario, or any combinations of any wishes and scenarios you want to try out. Making up your own scenario is fine, too! Either mun can make the suggestions for a scenario.

3. Posting and tagging anon is fine, too, if that's what the muns want, and they may de-anon whenever they wish.

4. Thread, tag and have fun!

[The Roles]

1. The Kyubeys (including crossovers and AU versions). Their function is to go around looking for people to make contracts with.

2. Potential Contractees. They are the potential Puelle Magi/Puer Magi.

[Kyubey, Wishes and You.]

1. Limitations - Kyubey can grant almost any wish any human being can think of, but there are some limitatations. Bringing back people from the dead is normally impossible. Granting wishes that are too big for the contractee's Karmatic energy level is also presumably impossible.

2. Hope and Despair - A wish that gives great hope to the world will also bring great despair. If you hit the wall, the wall will hit back.

3. Kyubey will not 'twist' the wishes. The wishes may 'twist' under their own weight, but Kyubey himself is not going around making things worse.

4. 'Selfish' wishes tend to cause less problems then 'unselfish' ones. This is probably because it is better to wish for something you actually want, instead of what you think you should want, in the long run.

5. Making a contract with Kyubey and becoming a Puella/Puer Magi means that one will lead a life of battle, which eventually ends in death or Witchfication, with no expections - Well, not unless your character can pull off aMadoka level miracle, that is...

[Witches, Familiars and Grief Seeds]

1. Witches. Witches are basically mini Eldrich Horrors who spread misfortune via curses (The Witch's Kiss). They also have the ability to generate a mini world of their own, called the Witch Barrier. Kyubey does not seem to tell his contractee that almost all Puella/Puer Magi basically end up dead or Witchfied, as a general rule.

2. Familiars. Familiars are spawned by Witches, and are some kind of 'lessor version' of the Witch in question. They will mature into full Witches in time, as long as they feed enough. (Cursing 4 or 5 people seem to be enough).

3. Grief Seeds. Defeated Witches drop Grief Seeds. Puella/Puer Magi need those Grief Seeds to purify their Soul Gems. Familiars do not drop Grief Seeds, but they will once they have matured into a full Witch.

[Sample Scenarios]

1. The wish was granted, but things went badly anyway. The road to hell, paved with good intentions, etc etc.

2. The wish was granted, and things went quite well, strangely enough. Not that that would save the Puella/Puer Magi from their eventual fate, in most cases, but at least, the wish itself seems to have been worth it.

3. Do to various reasons, a certain person has not made a contract with Kyubey yet. He can be pretty persistent, though.

4. You are Kyubey, and your life is spent dealing with things that are you do not understand and do not particular want to, either, over and over and over. Fuck his life.

5. A contractee makes a wish that make Kyubey want to beat his/her/it's head against the wall.

6. For once, Kyubey's plans actually work out just as planned.

7. Something Else

[Sample Wishes]

1. Please bring my dead parents/siblings/friends, etc, back! Bringing the dead back to life is normally impossible, but perhaps, if the contractee had Madoka-level energy levels, possible of revamping multiverses...Well, almost anything is possible, in that case.

2. I wish to make Replicas of my Important Dead People! This actually seems to be possible. How good the result would be would presumablly depend on what the wish actually was, and the contractee's energy levels, etc. One could get anything from shambling zombie people to people who are totally functional human beings, if not exactly the same people as their original models were.

3. I want time traveling powers! This is quite possible, as it is actually shown in canon.

4. I want to be beautiful/popular/famous/rich! These wishes will probably be easy enough to grant.

5. I want superpowers! This probably depends on what kind of superpowers, and the contractee's energy levels.

6. I want my family members/friends, etc, to love/like me! The results will probably depend on what the situation was, and how the wish was worded.

7. I want to discover the cure to major diseases, etc etc! This should be not be too difficult to grant.

8. World Peace, please. This will depend a lot on the situation, the wording of the wish, and also the contractee's energy levels.

9. I want mankind to go to the stars! Kyubey will probably run away like heck from anybody likely to make this wish, but let's say somebody managed to corner him...Yes, it should be possible, if difficult.

10. I want that poor kitty who was hit by a car, etc, to be healed. Easy peasy! This is not difficult at all.

11. I want cake! Well, yes, this is very easy, but are you sure you want to make a contract for a wish like that?

12. A Madoka-level miracle causing wish. You want to revamp the local multiverse, or something like that? Let's see how that goes...

13. I want to heal my sick/injured family member/friend, etc! This shouldn't be that difficult, either.

14. I want to change the world! This will probably also depend a lot on the situation, the wording of the wish, and also the contractee's energy levels, etc.

15. Something Else

[Russia Cat can be a Kyubey or somebody a Kyubey wants to make a contract with, either way is fine. Open to all scenarios.]

[A Gundam is floating in the night sky.]

...So I hear you grant...'wishes'.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
[Kyubey stares at it with it's bright red eyes.]

[Does the very big robot even have what is needed to make a contract?]

My name is Sandrock.

[It's one of the 'quasi magical' Gundams with the mysterious black boxes from Gundam Wing.]

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
[It does seem to have some kind of spirit, Kyubey decides.]

My name is Kyubey. Why do you know about me?

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 01:34 am (UTC)(link)
We have analyzed the available data.

[It looms closer.]

Is it true that you grant 'wishes', 'Kyubey'?

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
I can grant many kinds of wishes, but not everything.

[That we would be worrying, if Kyubey had enough emotions for that.]

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
What are the limitations?

[The Gundam lands, and kneels down in front of Kyubey.]

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
[Kyubey's tail twitches, as the dust flies. That is one gigantic robot.]

I cannot grant any wish that take more energy then you, the contractee, can supply.

And the energy that you can supply is based on your 'Karmatic energy level', for lack of a better term.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
[The Gundam looks at him, sensors glinting, and starts asking him question upon question about what can and can't be done, with the Gundam's energy levels.]

[This takes a little more then two hours.]

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
[Gundam is the worst contractee.]

[Kyubey answers all the questions without actually lying, however.]

(Anonymous) 2012-10-24 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
[The gundam holds out a computer.]

My wish is what is in this program.

I wish to become a guardian of all the sapient species born or created in the Solar System for a 100 million years. I also wish the destruct, or 'die', before turning into A 'Witch'.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-24 03:19 am (UTC)(link)
[Gundam really is one of the worst contractees ever.]

Does that even qualify as one wish, Sandrock?

(Anonymous) 2012-10-24 03:43 am (UTC)(link)
I believe it does.

[Everything is set up to be part of one wish, in the program.]

(Anonymous) 2012-10-24 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
[Kyubey stares at the computer, and runs thw wish program through his analysis program.]

Not possible at your present Karmatic energy levels.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-24 03:51 am (UTC)(link)
What if it was for 50 million years?

[The big robot's voice rumbles.]

[How many years would be possible?]

(Anonymous) 2012-10-24 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
Still not enough energy.

[Kyubey would like to suggest that the robot get rid of the death before witching out part fo the wish, but he's not allowed to make suggestions, alas.]

[Maybe one million years will be possible, if the rest of the wish stands as it currently does.]

(Anonymous) 2012-10-24 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
[The gundam isn't going to be getting rid of that part, sorry Kyubey.]

So how many years will be possible? 50 million...25 million...

[And the robot goes done through the numbers.]

(Anonymous) 2012-10-24 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
[Kyubey waits till the number reaches 1 million.]

That should be possible.

So this is the wish you desire?

[If Kyubey had any real emotions, he should be wanting to cry about now.]

(Anonymous) 2012-10-24 04:47 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, it is.

[The big robot sounds stoic, strangely enough.]

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
[There is a young boy, around 11 years old, picking on the scabs on his arms and talking to a girl around the same age in front of him...]

And now I'm going to have my gundams beat your stupid knight silly...

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
[A Kyubey is looking at both of them.]

[Who are they?]

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
Charlie, Charlie, look at that, it's so cute!

[The girl squeals.]

Snoopy, look at that! Is that a cat or a rabbit?

[The boy is called Charlie, the girl is called Sally, and they have a beagle called Snoopy, who is now looking at Kyubey, hackles raised.]

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
[Kyubey looks at the dog. Not sure if want.]

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 01:36 am (UTC)(link)
[Sally on the other hand has no such qualms, and is grabbing at the cute critter.]

Mine, mine, mine!

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
[Is a manhandled Kyubey.]

[Why do human children like doing things like this, anyway.]

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
[But doesn't Kyubey want their juicy souls?]

[Sally carries him over to the table, and pushes her princess knight doll over to the side.]

Now you can play the game with us, and be the big bad dragon!

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
['Souls' aren't really what Kyubey wants, to be precise.]

...I have never played this game before. How do you play it?

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
[Charlie and Sally stare at him, their mouths dropping open.]

You talk!

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 02:06 am (UTC)(link)
I do.

My name is Kyubey, how do you do?

[Kyubey looks at both of the children, trying to judge their Karmatic potential.]

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
[Surprisingly high. Charlie in particular seems to have Homura level potential.]

I never saw a talking cat rabbit thing before.

[Charlies says, and holds his hand out.]

Are you magical?

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 03:22 am (UTC)(link)
[I am a supervillian!]

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
[This character is a dragon. Can Kyubey still make a contract with her?]

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 03:43 am (UTC)(link)
[What kind of dragon?]

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
[Pern. She's a green.]

(Anonymous) 2012-10-24 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
[A Pern dragon should be fine, since they're practically people.]

Hello, green miss, my name is Kyubey.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
Why are there no Berserk characters in here...

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
What I want to see is a Sebastian Michaelis. Or even a Ciel.

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
[I would love to play a Kyubey.]

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 05:15 am (UTC)(link)
[So what would happen if somebody tried to wish Walpugis Night away?]

(Anonymous) 2012-10-23 05:23 am (UTC)(link)
It would probably depend on how much Karma they had...

[Hogwarts needs a Kyubey.]

(Anonymous) 2012-10-24 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
