cetana | [open] 9/8 hirajiro mystery gang

[ You know what? Now's a good a time for this as any. When the Attendants send the call out to everybody on 9/4, Kido takes advantage of everybody being together to give them the address to the house she, Terry, and Rei are staying at, and asks them to meet there on 9/8 at noon if they're able to make it.

The original point of a meeting was to recruit for a gang, but with shit going down and people disappearing and personalities splitting off, it's turned into Kido needing to reach out to anybody who's a Persona user and consolidate everything that they know about everything. Personas. Shadows. The town itself. Anything.

If you're directionally challenged, it'll be easy to spot the house on Sunday afternoon because it's the only house on the block with two dozen crows perched on every inch of roof and telephone line there is around the house, and a five meter wide spider crab hanging around on the front yard, its front pincers bound so it can't snap at anybody, but it still scuttles around irately. ]

Sorry about the lack of furniture... Take a seat where you can find space, either on the couch or the floor. There's rice, miso soup, and gyudon in the kitchen if you're hungry; go ahead and help yourselves. We've got lots to talk about today.

Then what? They have each other, and can go out by themselves.

[ They ditched us all to go camping; they're perfectly capable of going out for a night in town. ]

Maybe Leader's just lonely and wants new friends?

[ which is... still sad. ]

[ Sad... ]

I guess... He should have some confidence in himself. I bet he'll naturally make friends perfectly fine without resorting to that sort of thing.

Hmm, maybe he's shy... you should spend time with him, neechan!

[ yeah, come take souji out somewhere. ]

He is not shy.

[ Souji is the opposite of shy, you know this, Rei. Kido probably should take him out before she dies, though, because after that, she won't want anything to do with anything ever again. ]

You know him better than I do. What sort of places would he like, anyways?

[ she thinks. hmm, what sort of places would he like? it's not like the school had a lot of places for him to explore. ]

Umm... shopping? He took care of everyone's equipment and bought food for people.

[ ... she can't really think about anything else. ]

I only met him at a school so I didn't go to a lot of places with him.

That makes him sound like a lackey, not that he enjoyed doing it...

[ You know, like those group of "friends" but everybody is a bully and makes one person carry all the bags and buy everybody lunches, Souji sounds like one of those poor bullied kids. Schools suck. ]

He was your senpai?

[ ... honestly, yeah, that sounds about right lmfao looks at all those side quests where souji just ran around town to get these random items for strangers. ]

Kind of! I didn't attend that school, but he was older than me so he was like a senpai. He led everyone and was really nice to me.

[ Souji is a good boy but he's also whipped... ]

I wonder what happened... [ What happened to make him so bratty to Kido /: ]

I guess he can't be too bad, if you like him.

[ minato happened. after you spend 39382920 years together, you're bound to get influenced by the only other person with you. ]

Mmhm, I like him a lot so I hope you can be friends with him!

[ laughs, damn it, Minato, you ruined a perfectly good protag ]

...If you say so. I think I know where to bring him, actually, so I'll make some time this week. If he's not too annoying, maybe we can all hang out together sometime.

[ minato fucked up a perfectly good protag is what he did. look at it. it's got bratty. ]

That'd be nice! We can invite Vice Leader too. His cooking is also pretty good so maybe he can make us something!

[ Rei sticking up for Minato's cooking even though it almost killed four people... Unfortunately, culinary ability is what catches Kido's attention ]

Really? That'd be fun, actually, getting together and cooking together.

[ During which Souji will hopefully intervene and make Minato sit in the corner and not touch anything ]

[ Hold up. ]

Are you sure... Minato's cooking is good...?

[ He's the one that suffered through the stir fry. He doesn't want a repeat accident. ]

It's really good!

[ minato's cooking could kill everyone in the game and rei will still be like "haha what a delicious stir fry :9" ]

He made me stir fry and I loved it!

[ granted, she felt like dying but she loved it because minato made it ]

You ate it?!

[ AND SHE'S FINE??? WHAT THE FUCK, REI ]

Mmhm! He made the stir fry for me since I was hungry.

[ rei: stomach of steel ]

[ That stir fry made him useless for the entire day with his demigod-level endurance, so Terry is... surprised.

What the fuck.

He just looks over at Kido. SAY SOMETHING.

PLEASE. ]

[ Kido doesn't know anything about death stirfries, so she pats Terry on the shoulder. ]

It's okay, Terrence. Rei liking somebody else's food doesn't mean she likes yours any less.

[ You don't have to be jealous of Minato's cooking. ]

Oh!

[ is that why terry is freaking out? oh no!! ]

Neechan is right! Vice Leader's cooking is good but yours is good too, T-chan! It's just as good!!

[ "just as"....... ]

[ He wants to die. Just let him die. ]

[ Terry can die after Mondo dies and all four of them can be dead together ]

Terrence's cooking is pretty good, so I have high hopes for Minato. Can you invite him next time you're over there, Rei?

Okay! I'll ask him the next time I see him.

[ terry bursting into the velvet room: give me that stir fry. i must join my family in the afterlife. ]

Maybe he and T-chan can get into a cook-off.

That sounds fun. Who do you think would win?

[ If their cooking is even, would she root for her niichan or vice leader? ]

Ummm...

[ the fact that she actually has to think about this is very concerning. this is how much faith she has in minato. she's his #1 fan. ]

Both! They'd both win because they're both the best! I love both of their cooking!

[ what a cop out of an answer. ]
