Are any of you familiar with Carl Jung? If not, then I suggest you do.

But that is not my reason to come to you today. Rather it is to, perhaps, open your eyes should you chose to do so.

What makes good, good and evil, evil? Should both be simply placed as one or the other? If the 'evil' become the ruling force, would the rules be reversed? If someone steps up to remove a tyrant, are they doing good, or, in the eyes of others, are they being the ones who are evil?

...Or are we what makes these forces exist in the first place? Can good be really called good if there is no evil to defeat, no goal for them to attain?

You were all called here for a reason, but should you believe one side...or the other about what is the truth? As we become more enlightened, we tend to forget what came before. And as history has a tendency to repeat itself...

A man looks above to the nearby mountain. He knows not how it was made, and therefore decides that a god put it there. Is this man false? Scientifically, perhaps, we know that mountains are produced by the movement of lithospheric plates. Yet when we knew nothing of this, we saw the truth in a god. And so, this idea is born and now exists. Man gave it power, and the ability to create the mountain is now that god's.

Personas are reflections of a character's inner self, yet they are the gods, demons and powerful creatures of our worlds.

So then...can a man become a god...or was he always one?

[Minako is starting to get restless. The tournament only heightened this feeling, and so, today, after a conversation with Minato, she turns to the network to message the members of SEES she knows are present.]

Filtered text to Minato Arisato, Mitsuru Kirijo, Shinjiro Aragaki, Akihiko Sanada, Miki Sanada, Minami Arisato, and Aigis )

[Afterward, she takes to the video for something a little more public and light-hearted.]

So I read on the news feed that there's going to be some kind of masquerade ball at the end of the month. Since it's Halloween-themed, that must mean costumes. Anyone else thinking of going and dressing up? I can't decide what would look the best!

It's your friendly neighbourhood Santa Claus here, guys.

I just wanted to know if anyone wanted to form a team for dealing with any situations that might pop up - I heard there was an attack a while ago on a lab, right? If anybody wanted to, I dunno, prearrange to join up and fight evil and all of that glorious shit in the name of justice.

I already have two team members, so that makes a total of three of us, and I myself am a support Persona user and I've got some real expeirnece in that field.

[Santa rolls a few thoughts about in his head before he continues.

He wonders if Junpei and Snake will be aware that they're already being counted as his teammates, but surely they wont have a problem with that, right?
]

All I ask of you is that you give me a few piece of information, yeah? Don't worry 'cause it's nothing intrustive and you can filter, lock, encrypt or encode the fucking shit out of it so long as you tell me at least how to read it.

I'll include the information I need at the end of the post, alright?

[And the audio feed ends there.]

A handy dandy form is attached at the end of the post )

"I found the actual combat skills displayed recently at these so-called persona fights somewhat lacking. You may understand how to use your sorcerous.... things, but if you need to learn how to fight with bullet, blade, mind and hand, seek out Cerberus. I shall instruct you on how to not completely embarrass yourself when asked to fight."

[It's been an odd day for the future inn owner: the last thing she remembered was defeating that big floating eyeball then its second form. Then suddenly that dream...and woke up in this city. No one needed to tell her to be scared because she already was.

No Yukiko, the idea is to stay calm and don't panic. Just use the little watch device and ask your questions. Problem is what kind? It would be best to stick with a simple one, maybe someone she knows will answer. She finally figured out to use the voice function and records.]


Excuse me, I know this will sound silly but I need to ask. Is there anyone from Inaba here?

[Good, that's a start. It's a short post but one nonetheless. All there is left to do is wait for an answer.]

[Hello, citizens, you're now watching a recording of a curtain of silver hair and the sounds of someone poking and tapping at the communicator. There is an huff of breath, and then the camera is flipped over, revealing a woman with silver dog ears and red markings over her skin. She tilts her head curiously before smiling for the camera-- benevolently, radiantly, and somehow tinged with sadness. Then typing starts, slow and careful.]

HOW MANY PEOPLE STILL BELIEVE IN THE GODS? WHAT SORT OF GOD DO YOU BELIEVE IN, IF YOU DO?

[ Minato has an extremely important announcement to make. He's very upset by this turn of events because that music player - and his headphones, while we're at it - are very precious to him. Therefore, actually talking to many people at once on this device seems absolutely necessary! So he breaks his record of not broadcasting messages publically for this.

... anyone who watched the videos Yu Narukami posted the other day might recognize Minato as one of several who fell victim to teleporter accidents and wound up in the pool, though he's considerably dryer here. ]


My mp3 player got dunked in a pool the other day. I've been letting it dry since. However, it seems to be shorted out altogether.

... does anyone have any recommendations for a good place to get it fixed? Or... is there anyone here good with electronics?

I'd be very grateful for any assistance. [ pause ] For those I haven't met, my name is Minato Arisato.


ETA:
[ A short while later, he appends a picture of the mp3 player in question as well additional details as they come up. ]

It's from the early 2000s on Earth.
My sister has a working model, if one needs to be seen.

[When the video switches on it's a bit crooked, but it's soon apparent that a child's face is staring into the watch.]

Is it on?

[Someone else off-camera must have given an affirmative answer, because now she smiles.]

Hello!

[Then she pauses. She wants to introduce herself, but that someone has just reminded her not to. When she continues speaking, the smile has faded and her voice sounds... well, like a young child who is a bit scared, but mostly confused, and also trying very hard to sound confident instead of either.]

Can anyone I know hear me?

They said I should ask because lots of people can see this, like on television! [Who 'they' is is also left unclear. But the idea of a video phone is apparently exciting, smartphones aren't exactly the norm in Inaba...] Um... So if you know me, then answer back with a video.

[Because text answers are apparently also bad. This list of rules is even longer than her Dad's.]

And don't worry, I'm okay. [This, she adds because she knows her family well enough to predict their reaction to this weird kind of message. Her Dad is probably going to yell either way, though.] ...Thank you for listening.

...Um, how do I turn it off?

[So, you all know those transporters, right? You might have used them to transport from one apartment building to the other... or you might have ended up in the pool.]

[And if you ended up in the pool, you can probably find yourself in the video that was posted anonymously today. Probably no big mystery as to who posted it, seeing as that nice stranger was probably there to help you out of said pool. Obviously he couldn't resist, so it's okay to laugh, right?]

[...the music in the background might be a little too appropriate though.]

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!

[Welp, since everyone else has been introducing themselves, why the hell not?]

My name is Narukami Yu. I was residing in Inaba, Japan before being brought here. I've been assigned to the Libra district, apartment 5-10.

[There's a pause...]

Some of you have met me already.

[...hey, just because everyone else was doing introductions, didn't mean Yu's would be very long.]
