[Sayaka had been thinking for a while, after seeing Mami train and then fight monsters with her at the coliseum. She had been devoting herself to her music lessons, but she realized that she had been neglecting her magical girl duties. After all, a magical girl was supposed to be a hero of justice! She couldn't just forget about it like that.

Miss Sayaka, may I ask why it is you are shouting?

M-Maestro Chopin! I... I-I-I...! When was this... Why is this on?!
[Oh god. Ohgodohgodohgod. She could tolerate the other magical girls, complete strangers, or her room mates, but not any of her teachers! This was too embarrassing! So embarrassing that she could die! She's so glad this was set in voice mode, so she can properly hide her super red face.]
I... I was doing nothing! R-Really!

Oh goodness, are you all right? I'm deeply sorry if I upset you.

Ah, no... You don't really need to apologize! I'm not upset at all! I was just surprised that the Dreamberry was recording me all of a sudden.
[... Ugh, he heard all of that, didn't he. Well, he did say that he believed in magic, so maybe she could tell him...]
... You know how I said I though magic existed? It's because I can use it. As for the random shouting I was doing... It has something to do with a type of story genre popular in Japan during my time.

It'll be a bit of a long explanation, but I don't mind.
You see, back home, a popular subject in show or book plots is the concept of a 'magical girl'. It usually involves a girl or group of girls around their teenage years gaining magical powers somehow and using them to defend people from anything disrupting the peace. The moral of those stories is usually 'love, justice, and courage will always win.' Of course, these stories are mostly intended for children, so they tend to include some fun theatrics, like whenever the girls need to transform into their magical alter-egos, they say some sort of cute catchphrase.
[Phew, that was a lot. Sayaka didn't really read much manga, but anyone in Japan would know that much.]
I used to think it was just a work of fiction, but...

[She debates whether or not to tell him that being a magical girl wasn't as great as she thought it would be, but thankfully Frederic changes the subject.]
I guess you could equate it to a play. You know how the Dreamberry can let you see people from far away? In my time, some people use that kind of technology to act out roles to show a story. A popular one for the magical girl genre is 'animation'. It's when a sequences of drawn pictures are shown quickly to make it look like the picture is moving.
