SECOND MACHINE: NEW [TEXT] EDITION

[technomaturgist]

[ He's still not sure this is a good idea. However, it's something he's curious about. ]

I have a question or two, for everyone.

How many of you have recieved/awakened a Persona? How many of you haven't? I haven't awoken mine, yet. Are there people who would be willing to assist with awakening one?

Please let me know.

[ He has no idea how to persona, but this curious phenomena he saw means he's curious. And curious means network post. ]

Personas are a part of you and come from your mind/soul. When you are particularly scared or stressed or determined in some way, sometimes they'll come out on their own to protect you. For example, if you were fighting demons and got trapped, your persona might naturally awaken to defend you.

However, it is possible to jump-start that and force your persona out of your mind, in a way, using a tool called an Evoker. Most Evokers look a lot like a small hand gun. You hold the barrel to your head and 'fire', and it will push your persona out.

Where I am from, we primarily used Evokers. They're faster than summoning naturally and also can be easier for some people.

I don't know if that's how it's supposed to happen for everyone, though.

Log

[gforceinmyfaaaace]

Yeah. You know me already?

[technomaturgist]

It seems to be, however, from what I've been told by others...

private text; possibly, but it's more likely he'll be mad at Ferrus

[technomaturgist]

...Ah. That's interesting... though it explains why mine has yet to appear. Would it be possible to borrow an Evoker, should my attempt today at summoning mine fail? I'm... not sure how well fighting demons would work.

[ He gets afraid but he's never once been defenseless. Shura will... probably have problems succeeding... ]

ferrus also looked at your profile pit :I

[technomaturgist]

...Not exactly. Rune told me your name and that you'd awakened your persona.

[gforceinmyfaaaace]

Rune's told you about me? What else did she say?

private text; Well, what Garviel doesn't know doesn't hurt him?

[fools_journey]

Sure. If you would like, we can meet up, and I can show you how to use mine.

Once you've summoned successfully with that, maybe it'll help you get a better grasp on summoning without one.

[ If you don't give the Evoker back when you're done, though, he will be pretty upset. That one has sentimental value! ]

[trulyworthit]

Oh, yeah. Don't worry! I'll probably ask a few more people that are interested what time works best, and post about it... [Maybe it can be... like a concert!! Good thing she's not using video or she wouldn't be able to hide her giddy smile.]

private text; yes good

[technomaturgist]

...Alright. Would a meeting tomorrow work?

[ Gonna try a natural awakening first, but... He'll probably be coming to you with his questions about Personae, Minato.

Also, don't worry! If he likes evokers which he undoubtedly will he won't steal yours. He is too honest for that. ]

[technomaturgist]

...Sounds like a plan!

[ A concert is something Ferrus has never experienced ever. You would dazzle him, qurl. ]

I can't wait.

[technomaturgist]

Ah - mine is Ferrus. ...It's nice to meet you.

[technomaturgist]

... So far, nothing else. Just that your persona was awake.

...Why?

[gforceinmyfaaaace]

Nothing.

If you want to awaken to your persona you should put yourself in a dangerous situation. Like go to the park at night and face down a bunch of demons.

[second_destiny]

Likewise.

[That's all his text contains. He feels nothing else needs to be said.]

I have not yet awakened my Persona. However, I am very interested in the various methods one could use to awaken to it--for a part of "myself," it's been remarkably elusive.

Although, to be honest, I haven't yet tried to awaken it. My first priority has been to acclimate to Hinoto-Ri itself rather than experimenting with an unknown ability.

[greyerrant]

Do you have a theoretical on that yet?

[all_wound_up]

Please be careful if that's what you're going to try.

[fools_journey]

Sure. When and where would you prefer?

[technomaturgist]

...Not yet. They're confusing. I'll need to take one apart to see how it works, first...

[greyerrant]

Well, you understand that sort of thing better than I. Good luck.

sorry, slowatusing hard

[technomaturgist]

I was out during the scorpion attack. ...Is that not enough?
