What kind of "criminal past" does the school expect from a bunch of tweens?

So do we know who is going to be in the Alpha Party yet?

Yeah, it's a bit back. I'll OP it in the morning. Sleeptime now.

Well... Selina's insanity isn't actually harmful to others... but... well if you haven't read parts of it in Magic Girls then it'll be interesting.

Also that was solved by a very long piece of string so all that anology says to me is that 'Theres a bleedingly obvious solution here but nobody is looking for it.'
It was?

Isn't that the myth where the minotaur was in the labyrinth and people kept getting lost trying to kill it until some guy took a ball of string, tied one end to a post and went full throttle (With returns to the surface when he got hungry and such) through the maze until he murdered the thing?

The labyrinth was a straight path, the string wasn't needed.

Wh-

How can you get lost when there's only one path?

Dictionary definition or not, that thing was a maze.

Actually, all the people who went in there were dropped in to keep the minotaur happy.

I think I like my version better. It has a stronger moral.

At least I'm still right about the string.

I'd say throwing a guy with martial training in there was more of a solution, really. The string was just a solution to getting him back again.

Isn't that the myth where the minotaur was in the labyrinth and people kept getting lost trying to kill it until some guy took a ball of string, tied one end to a post and went full throttle (With returns to the surface when he got hungry and such) through the maze until he murdered the thing?
Not quite, no.

The labyrinth was a straight path, the string wasn't needed.
It was not a straight path.

You're talking about the Minotaur of Crete, right? Cretan Labyrinths are a single path. The dudeman who went in with the string didn't need it. I can't recall whether or not he left the maze. Pretty sure he just went in and did it in one go.

Myth != Reality; in the myth it is stated he both used and needed the string, I believe.

New idea: Let's stop with the specifics of mythology and all agree that this has nothing to do with anything.

Actually, it does. My point is that there isn't necessarily anything they were doing before this. They may have just been tossing their magic youths at the problem since the dawn of time.
