We all think that the world of Magical Girls is one of sugar and light.
Even Pixy Misel (sp?) the mini-villan of Pretty Sammy tends to follow that
guideline....whith that in mind I have a few comments and a
Reccomendation.
This is the reason for such rampant cross-posting.
Those who have laughed off a Magical-girl campaign for Fusion or Mekton
might give this fan-fic a glance to see how such a campign can get gritty.

I'd just like to C&C this briefly....
I love it....
The whole digitalis dayydream of agnst, mob-violence and magical girls...
What does the syndicate do when confronted with cute....???
Cute that turns all their hard created drugs into confections???
They get a Magical Girl of their own...one who can kill with a touch...
I found the idea twistedly refreshing and look foreward to seeing more of
this...I sense (or perhaps hope for) the redemption of the main character
while still getting a perverse kick out of what is going on.
The doomed (and I mean doomed) Licorice is developed breifly but in such
a way that we feel the main characters loss when she carries out her job.
It also gives the story even more of an anime feel.
Chisa, or heroine 's new friend is a great foil to Michi's darkness and
catches that hyper-perky anime feel. Will we see love and romance in the
form of the elder brother....probably not....but I bet we have a larger
bodycount at the end of this.
I hope there is more.

I met a Lady in the Meads,
Full beautiful, a faery's child,
Her hair was long, her foot was light
And her eyes were wild.
