It was something she found herself doing more and more frequently, at first for all the obvious reasons and Madoka's sake, but now... perhaps habit. She didn't think she was soft enough for it to be more than that.

"However, if it has gotten far enough ahead of us for the signal to be that faint, now is the time to begin hurrying." She wasted no time in following her own words, quickening her pace to a run that only another puella magi could have kept up with.
