5. Text, PSA | Not even bothered to be locked from Minato

Attn: Ladies especially

attached: minato.jpg


My brother Minato is recovering from mono! That means he's still contagious. So if he takes you out somewhere, don't kiss him, even though he's cute. Or share straws or chopsticks. (And it might be good to wash your hands if you touch him but try to do it quietly because he's sensitive.)

But he is getting better and he's been sleeping all month, so if you see him you should say hello and get to know him! He's a really nice guy when he isn't full of germs. ヽ(*≧ω≦)ノ He likes music and listening to people talk to him, and he'd really love to make some new friends.


[This post comes with only the best of sisterly intentions. Minato may love to sleep, but she'd seen how grumpy he'd gotten with almost a month of enforced bed rest. It was time for him to get out and meet new people, and what better way than to give him a not-so-gentle push?

Whatever her purpose was though, it got a reaction. Minako didn't bother to wait until her brother was asleep again to post, so not too long after her PSA goes up, another message quickly follows from a somewhat embarrassed and rather annoyed Minato.]


Please disregard most of what my sister has posted here! Except the part about mono.

But I'm not sensitive, and I'm not looking for anyone to kiss right now.
[He has a kind of sort of girlfriend here, after all.]

Though I guess if anyone knows much about playing the violin or likes running, it would be nice to find someone to run with a few times a week when I'm better.

[It feels kind of weird asking about that, but... without Akihiko, running and keeping in shape is going to get lonely, and he doesn't know if the school has a track team. So, even if he is annoyed with his sister for starting all this, he... is kind of slightly grateful. And he might as well take advantage of it to ask about a running partner, right?

Besides, maybe there's someone else out there who plays the violin or something, too. He missed the concert due to illness, and he regrets the chance not to find some more people who play music.]

Then I guess you'll be fine.

Have you been settling in okay? It's been a while since I saw you.
fools_journey: (hmm?)

[personal profile] fools_journey 2013-03-31 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
Huh? What is there to make an excuse about?

I haven't kissed anyone in a while, and I'm not going to kiss anyone I'm not dating, anyway.


[ Nope. Still confused. What does Cloche take him for, anyway? ]

[... He's a little surprised Minato remembers.]

I guess. I've been fighting monsters at night to get drops to sell. It's enough for me.

[It's not great, since shopkeepers always pay less than you pay them...]

Some of the bigger monsters are getting to be a problem though, since I don't have any debuff spells.

[Considering what happened in Animus, Minato and Miki both might be able to indirectly get back at her. Minako has a crappy immune system, and if he's a carrier, he's pretty sure she'll be down for a month and be even ten times more intolerable than her brother about staying in bed. Shinjiro only hopes his immune system is more than enough to make up for it, or else he's going to be down and out and he doesn't want to answer any probing questions.

Shit, though, he's still wondering how the hell Minato got it. ]


I don't think Minato needs a warning label.

[ Minato almost doesn't say anything because this is super awkward, but... he feels like he has to. ]

I'm sorry if I infected you. I'm not sure how long the incubation period is.

[ Minato has a good memory! But he thinks about that dilemma for a moment. He'd volunteer to help, but well... he's not really in a condition to do any rigorous activity like fighting right now. ]

I see. What is your persona like? Have you been to the Velvet Room? You might be able to get a second persona that has debuff skills if your normal one doesn't have any.

Oh. Have you tried?

If you haven't been able to, I might be able to help. I'm from a world with Personas, and I have something called an Evoker that can help sort of artificially call out your persona.

I haven't been able to, no.

Re: [text]

Yes. It looks like a gun. You hold it to your head and fire, and it will push your persona out of your mind.

It takes some getting used to, but it can help you figure out what calling your persona feels like so it's easier to do on your own.

[Quite suddenly, the door to the room Minato is hiding is kicked open. Standing in the doorway is Cloche, the very picture of righteous fury.]

Do you really think you have nothing you need excuse yourself for?! [She stamps her foot and draws herself up to her full height, before elegantly drawing her rapier and pointing it at Minato's heart.] What of all the hearts you have broken in your tenure as a... a...! [She sucks a breath in, as if the word that she is about to say is too foul to besmirch her lips.] Proswagonist.

I won't stand for your lecherous behavior any longer! In the name of pure-hearted girls everywhere, I'll punish you!

[And then Cloche sang a Eggy G and Minato was buried under a mountain of cute toys, never to be heard from again.]

Consider it forewarning.

I'm afraid I cannot take you at your word for that. I've found that, in regards to that subject, boys are entirely incorrigible. Besides, I hold your sister's opinion in very high esteem.

[Oh, so that's where Minato had gone? He was sick again? She seems concerned]

What is mono? It's a disease, right?

[She knows a bit about diseases she's never heard of mono. Also... noooot commenting on the rest of that; is that the kind of thing that sisters normally do? Has she been shirking her sisterly duties out of ignorance]

Mm.

It's full name is mononucleosis. It's caused by a virus.

[ Minato's voice is a little hoarse and froggy, but it's definitely better than it would have been if she'd talked to him even a week ago! ]

[a w k w a r d

but text is good at not conveying emotional subtitles.]


Ain't your fault.

[If he had been the only one possibly getting sick, it would almost have been a non-issue. He could deal with a sore throat, fever, and fatigue. It was certain other people he was worried about. And not just because the implications could be awkward.]

Yeah. In a week or two, I can lend you my Evoker and walk you through it. I've helped a couple other people do it this way before.

She wouldn't make such jokes if they couldn't be substantiated in fact. (I think there is an error in your message--all I'm seeing is a bunch of symbols between your parentheses.)

I don't trust anyone unless they give me a reason to.
