Hello everyone! ＼（＾∀＾） I hope you've all settled in well!

My name's Minako Arisato. I've talked to a few of you already, but for everyone else, it's nice to meet you!

Now that things have calmed down a little I was wondering - how many of us were Persona-users before coming to Hinoto-ri? I think it might be good to meet and compare notes if we haven't yet, see what's the same and what's changed. And maybe we could also make a list of people with experience who can help with answering questions or training, or things like that! Just jumping into using a Persona can be pretty daunting...

For everyone else - what do you usually do for fun? Some of the things I like are music, volleyball, cooking... If we have enough people who like the same things, maybe we could even form a club! I wouldn't mind having someone to play volleyball with again. Or to go out to karaoke! (ﾉ´▽｀)ﾉ♪

Anyway, that's all for now!

[added private text to Shinjiro]

Can I come over later?

It does bear a striking resemblance to him! Indeed, such a look could only be... perfected? performed? preforated? regardless, it suits him.

If you are going to do your brother, I shall do mine as well.

''\(♉︵♉)/'' "elizabeth please do not make fun of master igor like that he is probably watching us right now and he will be really mad and blah blah blah blah"

Look, he is even talking.

[DOES HE

DOES HE REALLY SEEM THAT WAY

IS THAT HOW HIS SISTER SEES HIM???

well MAYBE he should do one of her too!!!!

once he figures out how cries]

[okay okay THEODORE HAS GOT THIS

HE KNOWS HOW TO DO THIS watch his mastery, minako!!! be wooed!!!]

I have met one other of the arrivals who is familiar with Persona, and she has even met my master's master once before.

( ︶ー︶) A charming young lady by the name of Maya.

[... as for things he enjoys, she knows that.]

[His mouth thins, turning to sit back down in his chair. He stares at the pocketwatch for a few more seconds, letting his eyes wander across its surface, before nodding.]

Alright.

That one's good too! I never noticed his eyebrows were so big before...

[She still doesn't think so actually but she's pretty much 100% certain Theo is watching this and flailing from somewhere. Maybe she can draw him out.]

ヘﾍ(°▼°)ﾍヘhee ho ♪

Jack Frost! I don't think this one's as nice.

You're right. That is closer.

[for the record

yes]

We took you to the hospital after the Dark Hour. The doctors said then there wasn't a chance of you waking up. We had to keep fighting, though... so we did. We took out the Shadow on the next Full Moon on the Moonlight Bridge. Strega attacked us too, but we beat them and then Jin and Takaka jumped off the bridge.

We all thought that was the end of it. Mitsuru-senpai got us a giant sushi platter to celebrate... it was really delicious by the way. [...Side tracking... she can't help but inject some levity into the story even though she'd just told him it was dark.] Her father even came to the party. But Aigis and Ikutsuki were late.

[She pointedly doesn't call him the Chairman, or even add an honorific to the title, and the reason why is fairly obvious in another minute.]

We found out why once the Dark Hour hit. It hadn't ended when we destroyed the Shadows after all. We all headed to Tartarus, and found Ikutsuki and Aigis there - he'd taken control of her. Everything he'd told us before was a lie. Destroying the Shadows wasn't ever going to end the Dark Hour... It was just Ikutsuki's plan. He wanted us to bring them together. He even doctored the footage of Yukari-chan's father to make us go after them. Mr. Takeba was really trying to protect everyone when he released them... because he knew if they did come back together, it would mean the end of the world.

[She takes a deep breath, trying to collect her thoughts before she continues.]

[Oh, please do. Elizabeth would have a lot of fun ~~tormenting~~ teaching her brother this stuff.]

It looks very cute!

(ouoƷ〜

That is Lord Philemon. It isn't as nice as yours, however I believe it suits our purposes.

[this is fun]

[dumping coins into fountains, takoyaki, being trolled.... yep.

...him trying to use emoticons is so adorable. so, no she's not wooed.]

I haven't met Maya-san yet! Maybe she'll reply here soon?

How have you been, Theo? ヽ(*⌒∇⌒*)ﾉ

♪d( ^▽^)b d(ー.ー )b♪

[and look, it did work. Even if he's pretending he hasn't been reading this!]

It's fun coming up with these, isn't it?

I like the one you made of me up there, too!

[wow brb time to go mess with him --]

It is!

Thank you. (︶▽︶)~♪♫♪♫♪ It is rather hard to make ones that look like other people, however, and Personas even more so.

[THEO THEO]

You must have more spunk to your emoting icons, Theo! ヾ(>ヮ<ヾ ) Come!

└(^●U^●)█ (<- the compendium)

Edited 2012-09-16 03:16 (UTC)

I fixed it.

( ︶ー︶)
( ♥)( ♥)

[t-there's more!! takoyaki is definitely one the biggest though.

and he tried so hard for your heart, master minako...]

I would not be surprised if she does. A reporter must look into every situation, if I'm not mistaken.

I have been doing well and plan to pay a visit to my master by the end of this week. With luck, I will be able to answer any questions concerning your bonds and Persona as well as my role outside of the Velvet Room by the time I return. It has been difficult to get used to living outside of it, as well as feeling time move as it had when you and I went out at my behest, and sleep is not an easily gained concept.

[he would like to try "dreaming", as the little lady Elizabeth made it sound so enjoyable with tea parties and sugar.]

I'm glad you have been well. [If only that'd been voiced. There's only so much affection and whatnot that can be seen through text.]

[wh YOU ARE MAKING HIM LOSE CONCENTRATION IN ANSWERING MINAKO GO BUG SOMEONE ELSE]

The is plenty of "spunk" in my emoting icons, sister... (♉︵♉)ﾉ" Please do not hesitate to speak with others as well.

[you rude how are you and master minako even related.]

[NO]

Do not be so dour! （＾∇＾）█）゜д゜）

Is that me? [She really didn't expect to be that cute --] I have always known the guests of the Velvet Room to be extraordinary people, but the both of you are proving yourselves to be rather... Amazonian? Azteckian? Asyrian? regardless, you both are rather wonderful at these simple faces.

[shouldn't have broken up with her after one night then....

but don't worry she will always think he's cute]

That's good to hear! I hope I'll be able to talk to him, too... I have some questions of my own.

...You've been having trouble sleeping?

[Her thoughts on Theo are equally complex, so she's more than happy to leave that issue be.

...Doesn't mean she won't tease, though.]

I'm sure that won't last if you don't want it to. You probably had a fan club just like Akihiko-senpai.

[He says nothing as she begins to talk, just listens. His face is as expressionless as he can make it, taking everything in as best as he can—though when Takaya is mentioned, he twitches, because good riddance. Takaya was nothing but a sick bastard, and the world is probably better off now that he's gone. It wasn't like he didn't have a death wish anyway, so he got what he wanted in the end, and Jin followed. Jin was loyal that way—sounded like what Shinjiro knew of him. He had never wished death on him, but he hadn't ever liked him. Jin was just another messed up kid, just like the many others that wandered the streets.

The Chairman's betrayal, however, is a different story. He looks up sharply, a new light entering his eyes as his inner ire grows with every new bit of information he hears. It makes him angry, though his reaction is bridled, boiling underneath the skin. All this means is that all of them were nothing but pawns to use in whatever game he was playing, and it suddenly makes every damn thing he did reprehensible. He allowed a kid to join SEES. Allowed a bunch of teenagers to put their life on the line, getting hurt because of their solidarity towards a cause, all for a goal that was never a possibility.

He had known the Chairman for years, and Shinjiro had trusted him in his own way. Never close, he was never a friend, but respect was there. Now there isn't, just a sudden void.

But, just like he had agreed, he just listens, waiting to hear more of the many things he knows he'll never be able to change.]

[PLEASE THIS IS NOT HOW VELVET ROOM RESIDENTS ACT IN PUBLIC THEY MUST SHOW OFF A PROFESSIONAL ATTITUDE IN FRONT OF THE PUBLIC

wow he can't even think that they were always strange acting in public.]

I am not! [urg it's like she's really beside him and pushing her book into his face. he even has to make sure she's not by patting his cheek.] I am merely countering your implication that my emoting icons are not as "spunky" as yours.

[you made him upset look there's not even one here. upset and serious is when he drops them.]
