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?

[he will become the best dancer.]

She seemed quite interested in the Taurus sector, where they have a district built merely for the intent of housing lights colored red for whatever reason, but I am uninterested in it. In one of the sections of the city, the Gemini if I am not mistaken, the mountain is quite pretty... Yet there feels something off about it.

[personally it feels like how her school was when it transformed into tartarus, but he doesn't want to speak about it formally until he's gotten his proof. it would be unwise otherwise.]

[greatseal]

[let's not comment on Taurus...]

I haven't been up the mountain yet. Minato and I walked around most of the other districts though.

[canteachyoumore]

[he would quite like to see what all the hub-bub is about, master minako!!!]

My sisters and I have taken a stroll ourselves, but I'm afraid they were quite a distraction. May I ask what has interested you two the most?

[greatseal]

We liked all the music shops in the Scorpio district.

[canteachyoumore]

I suspected that you two might peruse those. [Can't keep those two away from music, after all. They have a rank 10 with it.

... He also wishes to ask her what her favorite genre was, but perhaps that was too personal? He can do that here. But Theo's still pretty hesitant to. So let's phrase a little differently.]

Which genre appealed to you greatest, if I may request such information? I don't have a selection to choose from myself.

[greatseal]

[that's a pretty tough question, Theo...] It really depends on my mood, I guess! All music makes you feel something... but sometimes you want it to be soft and soothing, and other times, to make you want to get up and dance around.

[canteachyoumore]

[When aren't his questions tough, Minako? Please also excuse his daring assumption.] You appear to be the type of person who would prefer the latter. It is very "spunky" as my sister would say. However, as you are such a diverse individual yourself, you must like any sort of music so long as it brings you some type of fulfillment, whether it be that of a spunky tune or a soothing sound. Perhaps I will attempt to find my own genre as well.

[He hopes it's similar to Minako's, though it hasn't really connected that he wants it to be so they can spend time together listening to that sort of music. Such wishes are independent of one another, right?]

[greatseal]

You're probably right about that...

And I think that's a good idea, Theo. No one can tell you what you like, only what they like.

[canteachyoumore]

Indeed. It was you who taught me that I must find my own self. <(￣︶￣)> An apparent like in a particular form of music fits into that, doesn't it?

[greatseal]

Right! Taste in music, sense of fashion...

[she's not suggesting he should find some new outfits to wear, of course]

[canteachyoumore]

[of course not, what he wears fits his purpose enough.

though with elizabeth around, he's bound to have some interesting costumes for most events.]

What sort of food pleases you most, the company you surround yourself with, even the art that may catch your eye! Your kind really is so diverse. Though I suppose that is what makes you "human", and very different than us.

[greatseal]

[someday she'll have to tell him that elizabeth doesn't always seem to know what's best for him...

that's not today, though.]

I'm still looking forward to seeing what you end up picking.

[canteachyoumore]

[if only it were. he could've avoided the mistake of wearing a kimono at the festival.]

I am as well. It feels rather [she'll never know he paused here, trying to think of the word.] peculiar, to think about something of this sort. Denizens of the Velvet Room have no necessity for it, yet we desire it. I find myself rather excited.

[fun fact of the day]
