I brought it up in the first trial, but that's about the only thing Fake Yuuko could have offered me that I'd actually care about. Bringing back my mom, I mean.
...that's why we're in this mess to begin with. I was careless with a wish. A wish to see Yuuko-san again. Such things are taboo in my world, I should have known better, but...
And you got hit with the good old "technical interpretation to convey the moral that no one should wish for anything they're not supposed to" ending. I hate it when that happens in cartoons and it's worse when it happens in real life, apparently.
Exactly. It's stupid when it happens in cartoons, and it's stupid now.
But it also meant that I had to claim Yuuko-san's title, or else Nirrti would have claimed it. Ergo, I had to become a witch to keep her from having too much power.
So you're here being all magical because otherwise, we'd have Crazy Demon Lady with two sets of powers instead of one?
You might want to emphasize that when talking with the others. Also, you were a normal guy before, right? Might also be good to point out. I kinda got into a shouting match with Shadow over whether witches are people...
Oh no, I wasn't normal at all. I could see dead people, and I inherited my family's strong magical power, which is the power Ruler-san is using as energy right now. Plus I had prophetic dreams of the future.
I still have those, by the way. I just have the powers of the Witch of Dimensions on top of it.
...but I will emphasize that the witch stuff happened because I didn't want Nirrti to have two sets of powers, yes.
You want to know something funny? When I first met Yuuko-san, it was because I was a patron of her wish shop. My wish was to lose all of my powers entirely.
As the Witch of Dimensions, I can walk through the 'sea of fragments' without getting lost. Which means I can go to any world in existence and interact with that world. Similarly, I can transport people and objects through the sea of fragments, taking them from one world and bringing them to another.
It's how I grant wishes, actually. I reach out into the sea of fragments to get what I need, and I bring it to where I am.
[For an example, he holds his hand out, a a strange object suddenly appears in it.]
That's uh...that's definitely a thing. Of some kind.
[Is that Slimer?]
That's pretty interesting, though. Before I wound up in the Foundation, I went through some kind of portal to another world. They told me there it was in another universe, and apparently I can go to parallel universes by myself now, thanks to whatever happens to people they "recruit".
I'd show you, but I haven't been able to do it here...

I don't mind that you called me a liar, either. I have been lying a lot, you were stating a truth.
no subject
Also, I kind of want to know what possessed you to play this game in the first place.
no subject
...I joined this game for the sake of Yuuko-san, though. The real Yuuko-san.

[At that, Watanuki looks guilty.]

Trust me, it was. Luckily Yuuko-san saw that I was just afraid of my powers, and she taught me to appreciate them instead.

Besides, there's a lot of people out there who would like powers. I got some from the Foundation, and it'd sure be nice if I could use them...

[Say bye to the wrinklefucker! He's shoving it back in its own world, so it isn't missed too much.]
Sometimes people have that power. It's very rare, but very useful. Take care of it, and try not to get lost in your journeys after this game is over.
no subject
I hope I can use it for something useful, if I don't die and get turned into "Furniture".
Which is probably another thing to ask about in public, huh?
