02 - [Video]
[This...is going to be a problem.]
[He was curious, really, to hang around until the 13th hour came along, and had been quite shocked by the enormous amount of monsters hanging around. So shocked that he was quite unprepared for when they started attacking- he thought he'd find a way to avoid them, honestly. And just when he was cornered...it had finally come out. His Persona.]
[And honestly, he wasn't too surprised. Not even scared, really, he's seen worse. His Persona is himself, isn't it? But this would pose a problem if he showed it to other people, because that would be going and showing them something very deep and personal that might turn them against him. No, he has to turn this into an advantage, a way to get people to pity him and go on his side.]
[And he knows exactly how to get that to happen.]
[The video turns on, and the first thing one hears is the rather terrified and stammering voice of one (1) Sam Erstwhile.]
This-this is really not okay! I mean, it's my birthday today, I really didn't need this as a birthday present!
[The guy seems to be on the verge of fainting, he's so pale. It's oddly dark behind him, even though it's morning...]
I-I...listen, is it possible to just refund a Persona? That's possible, right? Because...mine is a freakin' abomination, and I'm not really sure I want it. How come all of you get the cool ones and I get the one that looks like it feeds on little kid's nightmares??
[And then the darkness behind him moves, and what looks to be like a dark tentacle rests on Sam's shoulder. Sam shudders, letting out a slight whimper, as the skull-like face of his Persona drops down into view.]
[Looks like Sam wasn't kidding about that abomination stuff at all.]
They said having a Persona was a good thing. They said you'd love it, and that it'd help you, and...ugh, this isn't what I was expecting at all!
[And he buries his face in his trembling hands. He really looks like he's going to have a nervous breakdown over this.]
Happy birthday to me...

Happy birthday to me...
no subject
I'm really not. Good friend, maybe. But good person, maybe not so much.
*But, she still looks more than happy to receive the compliment anyway*
And I think you are too. Just...maybe you oughta let more people know.
no subject
[He gives her a nod, but thinks for a bit silently, wringing his hands.]] And I don't mean to be rude, but I-I don't want to waste more of your time, and it was a good birthday, so...I guess I should take my leave, now.
oh mai god he's going to eat her alive one day isn't he?!
Okay! Sure. Well, I hope you enjoy the rest of your birthday, Sam. And.. if you ever wanna talk or hang out again then you can just call me up, or something.
HE DOESN'T EAT PEOPLE THANK GOD but being his friend isn't exactly that good ;;
Of course I will.
selphie will cry and then danger will happen. yay!~
Great! See you soon, Sam. And happy birthday!
YAY FOR BACKSTABBING
[And he's off with a short wave, having opened up a new Social Link even though he doesn't know it yet. Oh, friends. He's certainly making a lot in this place, huh?]
