Saccharine
2.
Madoka is sweet. She's a year below but the nurse's assistant and is always accompanying the frail new girl in her class. That girl, Akemi Homura, isn't quite as sweet; she's a little bland, actually, but Mami wonders if that's only shyness. She still accepts cake happily.
The nurse's office is a good place to drop off her leftover sweets after school. There are clubs too, but clubs are niche and have no space for her.
Lonely kids who keep winding up in the nurse's office for one reason or another, or those kind enough to always escort them...
And Mami is just like the witch in the forest, isn't she, tempting them with sweets.
