It belonged to someone else, actually. He'd lost it, and the other Minako gave it back to him after she found it. [She reaches out hold the pocket watch in her hands again, fingers skimming over the casing.] She wanted to make him happy by returning it to him.

So since this one is mine to give away, I want to give it to you. An omamori. A good luck charm for anything that comes your way.
