1. A stick.
2. Another stick.

1. Steal something shiny from your love interest and reflect the stars in it.
2. Set something on fire. Fire is shiny! Preferably something of theirs.
3. Tap a shiny thing against an even shiner thing. Especially if they're not yours. Improves the sound quality.

Do want to be incinerated by the sheer intensity of Makime's glare?

Because that's how you get incinerated by the sheer intensity of Lady Makime's glare.

Otaku clicks her tongue and sends Tsubame into a charge at the smaller wolf. She aims a sword cut at the big one in passing, but it glances harmlessly off the heavy slime-slicked coat--never mind that, as Tsubame's charge carries the weight of both armored horse and rider down on the guard wolf. They trample clean over it and keep going a few feet further before Tsubame sheds enough momentum to turn back to the fight.

Eh. My personal favorite so far is Clouded by Thoughts, mostly because this is the only card where I feel like there's an actual flavor/illustration/effect synergy without the various texts being one million words each. Brevity is the soul of wit.

My second favorite is Sleep Deprived Madness, that's almost there, but not exactly.
