Here We Go Again
I found some more stuff I wanted available at jpqueen, so I decided on a whim to try yet another order.

Random Thoughts
- When I was thinking about the title The Once and Future King, it occurred to me that it would be interesting if King Arthur returned from Avalon and tried to conquer modern England. He'd need some magic support or modern allies, though.

- Even if they meet the age and gender criteria, I don't really think super-high-tech extraterrestrial weapons and robots are enough to qualify as "Mahou Shoujo."

Apparently it's based entirely on name-readings, because it doesn't give any other choices. . . .
Onyx apparently isn't a big dancer.
