[open] 11/9 hirajiro mystery gang
[ Over the past week and a half, either Kido or Akira have been going around asking Persona users to attend a meeting at noon on the 9th, with the meeting place being the first floor of the castle in the forest. People who Kido thinks will require dragging to the castle, she makes sure to find and drag over, since she wants everybody to be there in order to share their thoughts and get everybody on the same page. It's rare that everybody comes together like this, so she wants to make the most of it.
There isn't much in the way of furniture and the fridge in the Velvet Room is broken, so Kido can't rely on the kitchen to cook unending gyudon like she did last time. She'd stuck her head into the train this morning and saw something she really didn't need to see, so everybody else is also banned from entering the Velvet Room until the meeting is concluded. Instead, blankets are laid out on the ground and there's a stack of bento boxes which will be easy to eat while sitting outside. There's around three times as many bentos as the number of people, since she knows there's people who'd want seconds (or thirds or fourths or fourteenths... there's a limited amount this time, so no eating contests!!) and if there are any left over, people can take them home. ]
Is everybody settled? Food is on the throne over there, and there's barley tea and cups on the ground next to it, so eat up. Feel free to go back and get more if you're still hungry, but wait until everybody has the chance to get one first. When you're finished, put the box and chopsticks into the bag in the corner so I can wash them later. The cats have their own food, so do not feed the cats anything from the bento. If I catch you, you're not eating for the rest of the meeting.
[ She can't be sure if there's anything in the boxes that might be bad for cats, so it's a blanket ban, sorry cats... There are quite a few in the area, though, including Kano and Shiro. Kano especially does not get food. ]
Now, the first thing we need to talk about...
[ There are a few topics she wants to make sure they discuss, and then the floor is open for anything else people want to bring up, whether it's plot clues, mysteries people are looking into, general questions to bring up to the group, etc. Feel free to post a new toplevel for each new topic to discuss. Since it's a large open mingle, there may be threadjacking.
Also as a reminder, this month the reward for request 12 (two threads with fourth wall characters) is a plot clue in the form of a direct answer to any question your character may have. If there's something that comes up in the discussion that the characters are unsure of and think the Attendants might know (it's possible they might not), it's an option for getting those questions answered. ]

Oh, I'll eat it if you don't want it!
[ she will interrupt your spite for a moment. ]
no subject
Uh.
[He doesn't really want all of this, and it's fine if the end result is the same: no food for Kano. It's childish and he knows it, but he doesn't care. Jiro picks a few things out of one bento box, and dumps what he doesn't want from the second box into into what's left of the first. He hands the disorganized bento of unappetizing things to Rei.]
Have at it.
no subject
[ she came from the void because free food. :9 anyway, she'll take the bento without a second glance and literally inhale its contents. she barely chews as she eats all the leftovers in record time. ahhh, this is the best. ]
Delicious!
[ she'll then set down the box. ]
no subject
Where do you think the door goes?
[Kido can leave that discussion until the end of the meeting, but he thinks they're all stupid for believing it will take them home and he's going to talk about if he wants.]
no subject
Umm, wouldn't they go back home?
[ she missed the beginning of the conversation where they should have questioned it. ]
no subject
... Looks like it.
[He's not coming to the next meeting.]
no subject
Umm, do you think they go somewhere else?
no subject
Maybe. The point is, we can't know and I can't be the only one thinking opening the door at least has a chance of starting a fucking apocalypse or something.
[Opening a sealed door after slaying four tengu seems like a ritual sacrifice.]
no subject
Ohh... I didn't think about that.
[ she trusts the attendants completely so she just believe what they said without questioning that at all. ]
I thought they were like the doors back in the school. After we beat the dungeons and the bosses, those sent Leader and Vice Leader back home.
[ she has a bad habit of talking of things while assuming that the other person immediately knows the context. ]
no subject
You sure they went home?
[He doesn't ask who the Leaders are because he doesn't really care.]
no subject
[ granted, she left before she actually saw them leave but they must have left, right? they couldn't have stayed in that world anymore unless they wanted to be erased from history. ]
But Leader and Vice Leader are now here and I don't see their friends so maybe they did go home? And then Leader and Vice Leader came here by themselves.
no subject
They... left and came back?
no subject
Mmhm, they're now back. Have you met them yet?
no subject
[Not that names would help much, but he doesn't recall seeing any military people or anyone who looks like a ranking official.]
no subject
no subject
[Or heard anyone talk about them, so maybe they're the "Attendants".]
They the ones handing out all this information on the tengu and shit?
no subject
[ good guess, jiro. ]
They don't come out of the Velvet Room often, but if you go in, you'll be able to find them and ask them things. They're really nice and helped me a lot in the past.
no subject
We'll be having... a talk later.
no subject
[ in case jiro cares which one he talks to. ]
If you're not good at talking to them, I can help! I like them a lot.
no subject
I'll keep that in mind if I need help.
[He eyes the throne and the food that's left.]
Want another bento?
[Rei is at least somewhat helpful, and that's more than he can say for some people he's met here.]
no subject
[ she's been trying to control herself and not eat everything so people can have their share as well but if there are some leftovers... ]
Do you not like it? You didn't finish your earlier one.
no subject
I wasn't very hungry.
[Everything tastes like human flesh after Akira's fear floor. It was a bad time.]
no subject
Ohh, I see. Ummm...
[ she goes through her pockets and pulls out a few hard candies. she holds them out for him. this is her thanks for giving her food. ]
Here! You can have these later when you're hungry again. They're not as filling as the bento, but they'll last a lot longer.
no subject
[He likes her for some reason, maybe just because she's small and cute. Jiro has no use for them, but he takes the candies and shoves them into a random pouch.]
no subject
I'm Rei! What's your name, mister?
