01: audio / action

[stitchedfromsteel]

Hey, everyone. Uh, hey, Visitors? Am I doin' this right?

[The voice that's playing is that of a rough-sounding young man, and one who sounds a bit stressed at that.]

So. From what I've heard... you guys are all Persona users, right? Brought here to help protect this place? Still havin' a hard time believing it, but - guess there ain't any point in denyin' what I'm seein', huh.

I just wanna let ya know ... if anyone ever needs any backup or anythin' like that... [the next bit comes out in a rush, loud and forceful-] oh, just gimme a call, okay? I've done this crap before. I'm - [and he pauses for a moment, picking his words.] Uh...

I'm here to help. I want to help.

So... lemme know, okay?

[Pause. As if an afterthought-]

...An' does anyone have any tips for people who've just got here? This city's kinda crazy...

[Throughout the day, a rather confused looking young man in concealing clothing that looks like it's got to be too hot for the weather can be seen wandering through the city, trying to get his bearings. Damn. He never was good at navigation... but he'll get this place mapped soon enough? Won't he?]

Comments

Sticking with the audio for him.

[stitchedfromsteel]

Cool. I'm Kanji - nice t' meet ya, too.

[Beep? Beep. It takes him a moment to get it, check it, unfamiliar with the system-

And a few things catch his eye almost immediately. The Amagi Inn? Could be a coincidence. But what he needs to ask about...]

...Uh. This thing is talkin' about non-humans. Are there a lot of - a lot of 'em?

[unbroken_chain]

"We don't have as many Visitors as we used to, but there are a few, yeah. The manager of the Amagi Inn is a friend of mine, a robot named Nano."

[stitchedfromsteel]

...You've gotta be kiddin' me.

[Too many coincidences...]

That's. Damn. Uh. That's cool...! Seriously, runnin' the place? Do, uh, do people say anythin'?

[unbroken_chain]

"About Nano? Mostly just that she's a good person."

Kotoha pretends to think about her next words before saying them, a cheerful little grin on her face.

"If she weren't so obviously hetero, I'd probably flirt with her a little. Ah well!"

The last two words are accompanied by a gusty, exaggerated sigh.

[stitchedfromsteel]

That's, uh, that's nice? Right?

[Someone here couldn't be more clueless if he tried...]

But huh. That's cool. Good to know 'n all that. ...Now you've said that, I kinda wanna meet her.

[unbroken_chain]

"Hmm...here, I'll send you the address for the Amagi Inn; you can talk to her there if you want?"

[stitchedfromsteel]

Yeah. Sounds good to me.

[At the very least, he's got to check the place itself out with a name like that...]

So, uh. Anythin' else I oughta look at 'round here? I ain't used to big cities...

[unbroken_chain]

Pause for thought.

"Oh! Try the Cancer Ward; it's got lots of arcades!"

[stitchedfromsteel]

Huh. Okay, that's gotta be worth a look.
