Natural 1's and natural 20's within the first five rolls count as critical failures or successes, and override the first three roll rule. Natural 1's and 20's negate each other. Only rolls linked to the post asking for them count, unless they are acting as corrections to misrolls that are linked to the proper post.>Before we start... Could I get 7d20, please?

>Previously.... >Check it out"I'll give you two the all clear." You crick your neck and start down the alley carefully.Keeping Izanagi ready to summon, you make your way around the few trash cans sitting there. Near the middle of it, you see several bits of damaged trash sitting around...And what appears to be a circle drawn on the groundLooking back, you wave Adachi and Minako over, clearing things out so you can get a better look at it....It's a circle alright. Drawn in what appears to be a chalk, there's a few scribbles by it, and some drops of slime around it.
>>30099626>What do you do?
>>30099626Take pictures to confirm evidence.Look over the area. Since it was drawn in chalk is there any chalk sticks left around? Take a sample of the slime as well. It needs to be sent back to Minako's unit for analysis if the police can't do anything.Is the area wet or dry? Either way, destroy part of the summoning circle. That'll disrupt any further attempts at using this. If the area is dry, ask Adachi if it is possible to check for prints. Since anyone who drew the circle likely had put a hand on the ground.If it is slightly wet or the ground is unsuitable to dust from prints, check for shoe prints to capture.
>>30100815Sounds fine
>>30099708>>30100815this seems all right but we shouldn’t destroy the summoning circle
>InvestigatePulling out your phone, you nod to Adachi and Minako as you snap a few pictures of the circle. "Can either of you see if there's any chalk around?" You ask, heading to the circle and spitting on the outside line. May as well at least break it. It rubs off fairly quick, and you can hear rummaging to the sides as your two companions move a few pieces of trash around. You start looking around the circle as well."Hey, I found something." Adachi says after about half a minute."It looked like it had been thrown off and rolled behind a bag." He turns around, holding up a rubbed down looking piece of chalk. "Think this was what made that circle?"You and Minako both nod. "Probably." She says, stepping over and holding out her hand. "After tonight, I think I'm gonna be going to headquarters next week. I'll take in some of this stuff with me, since we at least can look at it and see if anything's wrong."...You glance around the alley. The circle's broken, the chalk (that may or may not be special) is found... What else is there to worry about?>Write in
>>30102453'We will have to keep our eyes open since it's probable that how ever summon that slime might try again'
>>30102453Ask the others if they have any ideasI mean, Doujima is a detective and all, I'm sure he'll have a good idea or two
HOLY SHIT YOU'RE BACK>>30102453Did we ask Minako about Evokers? Since she's going back to headquarters it'd be a perfect opportunityOtherwise I think we're done here
>Potential summoning"...Whoever did this might try and summon something again." You say, glancing around. "We should probably keep our eyes open for weirdness."Adachi looks nervous, but nods, while Minako just shrugs. "Whoever's doing this probably won't try again soon. Like the JOKER summoner, who's been laying low since we killed it." She says. "Still worth keeping an eye on things, though.""Any other ideas?" You ask, getting head-shakes. "I, uh, got nothing. I don't even know where to start for this..." Adachi seems a bit depressed at that"Aside from keeping our eyes open, nothing." Minako sighs. "Whoever it was didn't leave anything we can find, after all, so no leads there.""I'll see if Uncle Ryo has any ideas, then." You say, getting nods. "He might think of something...">What do you do?
>>30104745Let's just head home, I guess
>>30104745Quick doublecheck of the area for anything we missed, then walk Minako home, and inquire about her headquarters.Also text her a copy of the picture of the circle. Adachi can go update Dojima
>>30104745>>30104837seems good
>>30104837While we're texting, maybe send it to mom? She's apparently versed in occult stuffOr not
>>30104745Go see Igor. He might be willing to shed some light on some stuff if he knows anything.
>>30105370Thousand yen say he knows nothing
>Since I seem to have a population now...>Emails and one of "Walk Minako home" and "Visit Igor". Which?
>>30105489Walk Minako home, it's late.
>>30105509Actually, how about walking Minako home then visiting Igor on our way home
>>30105489Walk Minako home
>>30105489Why not both?
>Email pictures>Walk Minako homeYou flip out your phone."Alright, I'll send these pictures of that circle to either of you, if you want them." You say.A minute later, after gaining Adachi's email and phone number, the three of you head out of the alley, pictures beings sent to both and Dojima."Well, I'm gonna get home." Minako seems to yawn. "I had been planning to get to sleep, but... Well, this thing.""Want me to walk with you, then?" You ask, nodding.She seems to think for a moment, before shaking her head. "No, I'm good. You should fill Adachi in more, anyway, and let your uncle know what we found." ...Not much to do but shrug as she heads off...."So..." Adachi starts as the two of you walk back towards Dojima. "Sucks to get shot down like that, huh?"...Does he really think...?...Yeah, probably.>It's not like that>Yeah, it does>...What?>Write in
Sorry about vanishing. Had to eat, then my internet went to shit for a few minutes.
>>30107064It happens, can't let it get to you though.Happen to you much?Time for bonding!
>>30107064>"No, not really."
>>30107064>Yeah, it does
>>30107064>Nah, I really don't care either which way.
>>30107123This.
>It stings"Eh. It happens." You shrug. "Happen to you, too?"Adachi seems to pause for a moment."Yeah, it does." He shakes his head sadly. "They just walk off, and I never see 'em again."He pauses, looking up a bit and rubbing his chin. "Though, y'know, I do think Arisato's interested in you. Just not wanting to make a move quite yet." He says, shrugging. "I dunno why, though."...Huh. Maybe it has to do with her job, or something? Maybe an ex? Or that thing she didn't want to talk about?"Anyway, go for it, kid. I mean, even if she shoots you down outright, you've still got plenty of girls to choose from." Adachi continues, snapping you out of your thoughts. "You just gotta know the right way to convince them that you're the best guy available."The two of you continue in silence for another minute, as you think about that. "Anyway, Arisato said something about an 'Igor'. Who is that?" >Tell him>Brush it off>Write in
>>30109276>"Creepy guy with a huge nose and answers to someone who knows everything that's happening. He's pretty cool. Kinda hard to get information from him. though."
>>30109276>Tell himWere we going to see Igor afterwards anyways
>>30109276>Tell himA magical dude with a huge nose that lives in a magical room
>>30109276>Tell him
>Tell him"A magical man with a long nose, in a magic blue limo." You say, shaking your head. "He's evidently working for someone who knows all about what's going on with this supernatural stuff. Hard to get info from him, though."Adachi goes silent for a minute, and you have the distinct feeling there's laughter coming from him, just silent."You're not joking, huh?" He shakes his head. "Alright, where's this limo, then? Can I go talk to him?""Last time I took people he wasn't expecting in, he got kinda mad." You sigh. "I don't think I'd be able to let you in, either. It's... Not at its prime, from what he's said.""I think I getcha." Adachi nods. "So, you'll get us info from him soon, and help with this mess, right?""Of course. That place has an entrance in the shopping district, so I was thinking of doubling back after explaining things to Uncle Ryo."As you glance ahead, you see him standing by his car, talking to another police officer, evidently a patrolman on a motorcycle....The two of you glance to each other. "Maybe it isn't that good of an idea for you to walk up and talk about this stuff..." Adachi says, looking at the officer on the motorcycle. "I'll explain it to him- you go get some info, alright?"...That's admittedly a good idea. Or you could wait it out, and talk to Dojima after the patrolman leaves. >Write in
>>30110876>Wait it out and talk to DojimaHe might give us some questions to ask the nose
Rolled 2>Just making a roll here.
>>30110876lets go with Adachi's plan
>>30110906Actually fuck it, let's just go home. Do we even have anything to talk to Igor about
>>30110876Go to the Velvet room and Fuse Hotei and Jack Frost together
>Sorry, but I'm gonna vanish intermittently for a few hours. I'll drop in in a bit with an update, though.
>>30111159>>30111159Oh. and talk to Igor as well
>>30111617(Fell asleep earlier)Did we bag the chalk properly? It's the best lead for prints. Should hand it to Dojima or Adachi for them to do their work on it.
TONIGHT...YOU...IT'S BEEN FOREVER, HASN'T IT?
>>30112305>Minako's got it somewhat securely bagged. Unfortunately, that klutz Adachi picked it up barehanded. Whoops!>>30112392Yes, it has.
>>30112668Some contamination then but its a known quantity. Worth a shot, sitll.
>>30112668damnit adachi...I still can't tell how much of his incompetence is on purpose.
>>30112668just keeping the thread alivealso sorry for not saying it earlier but its good to see you here GOP
>>30114637while we're waiting, has the combat system changed? I stopped reading at around thread 17, and picked it up again around 25, because the combat didn't really do it for me.
I've been wondering ever since we saw funkybro, but is it possible to actually engage the other unnamed NPC classmates in our school? Like, the lesbian girl outside the library, the lovesick classmate who likes the girl on the roof, and (my personal favorite) the hopeless romantic underclassman?
>>30115399>Yep.>I'll need maybe 10 minutes to generate reasonable sounding names, but yes.
>>30115422>I'll need maybe 10 minutes to generate reasonable sounding namesYou didn't really try for funky though>>30115399The only unnamed NPC in persona I cared about was that girl in 3 who was OBSESSED with Mitsuru
>>30115422Ninini top. I'm sleeping now but I enjoy your quest
>>30115422Oh, hell yeah.Gentlemen, we shall help Lesbian-chan get the girl she loves.
>>30115449>He's Funky. Does he NEED a name beyond that?
>>30115484Dude, we didn't even interact with NAMED side NPCs
>>30115596That's what the real Persona games are for. We are going BEYOND THE CODE!
>>30115701>filenameUnless it's a picture of a sleeping QB, no dice
>>30115764
>So, one VR, one wait it out, one home. >Why didn't I ask for a better vote earlier. >>30115701>>30115764>>30115807>Also, you guys, pls. >I wear a butterfly mask, too.
>>30115953I don't see the point in VR at this... point, so I vouch for going home
>>30116010I agree.
>Head homeYou crick your neck, looking down the road."I think I'll head home, actually." You say, getting a surprised look from Adachi. "I want uncle Ryo's opinion on what to ask, and I'm feeling drained from that fight.""Alright, then. You go on home, and I'll let Dojima know what's up after we're done talking with whoever it is over there." He pauses for a moment, then nods. You start to head out, but pause for a moment as you get a nagging feeling at the back of your mind. Turning around, you see Adachi looking at you carefully."Y'know, I like you, kid. You're smart." He says, rubbing his chin. "Gonna be good to at least talk with you, if not work with you.">You feel a new bond beginning to form...Shaking your head briefly, you nod. "Same." You say, giving a short wave and heading home, finally. ...Arriving at the Dojima residence, you step inside quietly. Seems like Nanako's asleep already, and Dojima's still out... >Go to bed?>Go do some crafts [Build that model or sew]>Write in >Sheet updated
Rolled 2>>30117250>>Go to bed?Need some sleep. Write a note to Uncle Dojima that we should discuss this for a short while in the morning.Also pack the sewing stuff to bring to school. We said we'd look over it with Kenji tomorrow.
>>30117338>KenjiKANJI
Rolled 19>>30117361whoops.
>Anyway, I'm about to pass out, I'm sorry to say. I'll take a quick nap, then be back to run in the morning. Just keep this from 404ing for me, would you?
>>30117250Wait, we have two Fools now? Or, does this mean we took his spot for Hunger?
>>30117468>You aren't the Hunger.>Again, you chose the Deck.
>>30117501Oh right, it's been so long I forgot about that.
Bymppy
>>30117501Seriously, by the end of the quest I'm hoping we get to see Yu taking the Persona Compendium into battle. It would be glorious.
>>30120006>by the end of the questI love this quest and all, but it's inconceivably slow. I don't think we'll get there
>>30117250Craft the thing we were working on for Nanako. If we talk in the morning, we may not have enough time since Nanako will wake up.
bump
>>30117250>Go do some crafts [sew]
So what do we ask about?Ryo:>Shit to ask the World Arcana for?>Ask what we should ask Igor, how to phrase it.>Detective Shit: How to tell if someone is lying/how they feel, which may help since he's humanoid. IRL there's a lot of cues like where they look, their posture, etc.>Girl advice?Igor:>How to get the others to use their Persona?>Ask about our new 'Fool...?' arcana?ShadYu:>If he thought up his new name, dammit.Also seriously. What the fuck is with these new captchas?
>>30121962>Girl advice?PfffthahaahahNoI really don't think we need any more exposition from anyone, not to mention it's slow as all shitI suggest we just go to sleep and move the plot>If he thought up his new name, dammitHe wants to be named Raidou Kuzunoha, but in the original Persona 4 there are movies about Raidou mentioned, so we should talk him out of that
>>30122162Various p2/p3 characters are referenced too, on one of those TV programs right?
>>30122212AlmostP1/2 characters were mentioned on TV in P4Even though all of Persona characters exist in a single universe
>>30122250>were mentioned on TV in P3Fixed
>>30120006>Why? It'd just be superfluous weight.>So, one for "bed", one for "sewing before bed". Could I get a tiebreaker or three?
>>30122832Let's do some sewing
>>30123184Losing trip.
>>30122832Alright, sewing to soothe the nervesLet's do a plush Jack Frost
>>30122832sew
>SewingYou head up to your room and get your supplies, before returning to the living room to work.After a short while, Dojima walks in, looking somewhat annoyed at the whole situation.Seeing you, he sighs."Yu, mind if we have that talk tomorrow? I need some time to think." He says, tossing his coat onto the table.... He looks tired, now that you check again. Probably best to let him get to sleep.>"Yeah, sure.>"No, this is really important."
>>30124318>>"Yeah, sure.
>>30124318>"Yeah, sure.
>Yeah, sure"Alright. Tomorrow, then." You say, nodding. Dojima gives you a wave, then heads to his room, leaving you to sew in peace. ...After working for a while, you decided to go to bed.>Saturday, April 30th, 2011, 6:30 AMWaking up early, you get ready for school and head downstairs. ...Looks like Dojima went in early today. >Lunch and breakfast prep? [2d20] >Write in

Bump
>Cooking>20, 20You set to work, several lunches being made quickly and perfectly. Moving onto breakfast, you're setting plates on the kitchen table as Nanako comes downstairs. ...The two of you eat fairly quickly, and head out towards your respective schools.....After dropping Nanako off, you make your way to your school, arriving a fair bit early. >What do you do?
>>30127904TO THE ROOF
>>30127904Roof
>>30127904Let's head to the library. I want to confirm that GOP isn't deceiving us an Lesbian-chan really is there.
>>30128578lesbian-chan?
>>30128603Dont reply to the avatarfag. Just report its posts.
>>30127904OP seriously you shouldn't run if you post every 2-3 hours. Thats just horrible pacing.
>>30130605It's like this all the time, don't mind it
>>30130605I, uh... Actually got tricked into an extended shopping trip with the promise of food. Then, when I managed to get an update mostly done, my battery died. Sorry about that. Update in less than 20 minutes, you have my word.
>RoofHeading up to the roof, you notice the third floor to be relatively quiet. You caught sight of the rumormonger best described as funky and a somewhat familiar 2nd year girl further down the hall, but... Since they seem to be talking, you decided to continue on to the roof.Arriving, you find an unfamiliar boy looking off towards the gymnasium, seemingly lost in thought. ..."Oh, uh ,hey." The boy says after a moment, seemingly noticing you. "Don't mind me. Just thinking." You nod. "Yeah, I got here early and decided to come up to the breeze." You shrug. "Sorry if I'm bothering you."The boy turns to look at you, rubbing his chin."Oh, uh, hey. You're that transfer, aren't you?" He asks with a surprised expression. "Haven't seen you around much."He steps forwards, extending a hand. "Kou Ichijo. Nice to meet you.">Shake his hand, introduce yourself>Introduce yourself>Write in
>>30132573>>Shake his hand, introduce yourself>talk about polishing balls
>>30132573>Shake his hand, introduce yourself>Cantrip Zio, enough to slightly shock him. Less than a shocker ring.
>>30132573>>Shake his hand, introduce yourself
>>30132614This.>I LOOOOOOOVE me some balls
>>30132937Pls no
>>30132573Couldn’t appear here in the day so it's good to see that at lest this quest still goingalso>Shake his hand, introduce yourself
>Shake his hand, introduce yourself"Yu Narukami." You reply, shaking his hand firmly and smiling. "Good to meet you, too."After breaking off, the two of you stand there for a minute, obviously trying to think of something to talk about. "So, uh..." He starts, looking over at you. "Didn't hear about you joining any sports clubs. You interested in b-ball?" "Yeah, I was flip-flopping between that and soccer." You shrug. "I take it you're on the basketball team?" Kou seems to chuckle. "Yeah, I'm the captain. It'd be good to get someone new in." He grins. "We're actually having practice today, and getting a new manager, for whatever that's worth. If you wanna come by, feel free.""I'll think about it. After classes, right?" You nod. "Yeah. We meet over in the gym, so-"Kou's cut off by the bell ringing, and the two of you hurry off to your respective classes. ...After a lecture regarding canyons and planets, you nod to the others as the lunch period starts. >Head straight up to the roof?>Write in
>>30134253>Go find Kanji and head to the roof
>>30134253>>Head straight up to the roof?>Get the boys, discuss love lives, or lack thereof
>>30134253>Head straight up to the roofwe need to tell everyone the news and that they need to keep an eye openalso this>>30134323
>>30134253>>Head straight up to the roof?Got the sewing to do with kanji
>Straight to the roofArriving at the roof within a couple of minutes, you find Kanji sitting on part of the air conditioning units, rubbing his head and sighing.That's right... You were going to get advice from him about sewing, weren't you?You should have enough time, given the other three's habits..."So," You start, walking over and pulling your handiwork out of your bag. "Opinion?" ...Kanji looks at you, then to the doll. "Hm... Stitching's a bit sloppy..." He mutters, taking it and looking at it closely."Might be a bit weak..."...This continues for a few minutes, until he hands it back."Not bad for a first project. You could stand to neaten up your work a bit, though." Kanji says, nodding. "Stitching on that arm's a bit uneven, but it shouldn't hurt it at all.""Alright, then. I'll be more careful from now on." You shrug as you return the toy to your bag and take a seat. The others walk out the door soon enough, and you distribute lunches....>Write in
>>30134253>>30134323Can't think of anything urgent we need to do before heading up.
>>30135694So Yosuke, you ask Chie out yet?
>>30135694Tell them what happened last night
>>30135728No. Dont. Too blatent.
>>30135694Lets share with them what happen last night
>>30135694>Start with small talk, ask about LOVE>Try to insert a Yosuke & Porn or Chie & Banana jokes somewhere. I dunno, if she shops at the Banana Republic
>Sorry about this delay. Something, uh... Came up. >Pic unrelated
>>30135694>Tell them what happened last night
You know what we should ask Ryo about? The fact that no bodies have appeared of Yamano. OOC, that is off. Who else is missing again?GOP, can we get a weekly schedule of our time?
>>30136515>What sort of one? Scheduled events, or play-by-play of up to now?
>>30136640Huh? Yu Narukami's weekly schedule. School, work, etc. By Scheduled Events you mean holidays, or shit that happened in canon?
>>30136812>Ah, got it. >And I meant the former. >Usually, it's school on Mon-Sat, mornings-afternoon. >Work, you get asked when you can/will on Sunday. >And Drama club, which you signed up for, is on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays. >Other than that, you have no set schedule.
>>30136891So if we join a sports club, we can gain an Arcana. But we'd also lose the afternoon for those 3 days?
>>30137087>Well, you aren't required to attend, and it's on two of the same days as Drama.
>Tell themWhen you finish eating and there seems to be a lull, you sigh. "So. There's evidently a demon summoner in town." You say, getting surprised looks. "Last night, I saved my uncle's minion from some sort of slime-thing." You continue, cricking your neck. "Looked like it was some sort of half-formed dog, or something."The others seem nervous. Chie and Yosuke specifically."I talked to Miss Arisato about it, and she thinks whoever it was will try and lay low for a while, like we think Kubo is doing.""So, what does this mean, partner?" Yosuke asks, looking at you and rubbing his chin. "There a bigger chance we'll deal with supernatural stuff in this world, now?"You shrug. "All I know is, that's what I killed last night. It seemed to drop a fang, but aside from that... Nothing I can really say to know about it."...The other four go silent, seemingly in thought...>Write in
>>30137725>Unrelated but...Amagi, were you ever offered a contract? Even in a dream? Something that could be construed as a contract?(This is IC, I'm going through archives currently for hints on Yu's identity)>Say we should go to the forest or mines tomorrow after seeing Igor. Because we're busy today (Gotta talk to Dojima and stuff)
>>30137725I've got no ideas for what to say.so let's go with >>30137882
http://pastebin.com/Fn98egGpHere's a list of things I've noted. I'm still not sure about who our character really is, though. Apparently, it should be obvious with all the hints.Anyway...Btw, we lack a Nanako social link.Something else I noticed while reading through logs? Shadow!Yu ha yellow eyes, but Teddie said he didn't smell like a normal Shadow. Weird, huh?Ryo:>Ask for govt. hypnotist for some memory therapy. Explain we're missing a vital part of our memories just before we had that crazy dream with Igor. And that it's especially important since we may not even be "Yu Narukami">Ask him to bring out the family photobook. Have him walk him through what he knows of "Yu Narukamis" life and the family life in general, so we can check for discrepencies.>Tell him about the World Arcana we have, explain it. Ask him if there's any good things he can think of us inquiring through ti.>Ask for shit to ask Igor, ask about cues on mood/posture/truthfulness (Any detective would know those. There's plenty)Igor:>Why the others cant use their Personae outside the TV World, and how that can be fixed.>Ask him about our missing memory?>Ask him why the first card we got to look at felt familiar. Did we choose the wrong one?>Ask him to elaborate about the fact we're uncontracted, and what that'd mean for Amagi.>You said 'the game is now once again in motion' once. What did you mean by that, this being some sort of game?>Are, or were you (and the assistants) even human?>Who could be making these False Shadows?>Ask him about our strangely worded Adachi Social Link>The "Shadow of Yu Narukami" has yellow eyes, but Teddie said he smelled bad, kind of like a False Shadow? What's up with that?ShadYu: >Ask ShadYu about Yu Narukami's life, have him give him his lifestory, thoughts, etc. Again, to look for discrepencies. >Ask if his knowledge is ever updated.Both Shadows>Ask what books they want. Maybe Philosophy, on existing and having a Self or Identity
>>30138700In response to that pastebin:>Line 8: You'd have been playing as canon Yu Narukami. No reason to keep that hidden now. >65: Used to work for Igor. Just gonna flat-out say that the "Old friend" is Door-kun now>71: The dog was the one Minako was petting/feeding when you arrived. >Also, I guess I'm writing now, since I got informed of this thing beforehand, and was reading a response
>Gah, dozed off. >Since I'm blurry eyed, I don't think I'll be able to continue at the moment. >I'll keep going in the morning, if the thread is still alive.
>>30138700OkayFirst: We have no reason to think that missing memories are that important to warrant a hypnotistSecond: The only thing that can even remotely make us doubt that We're we / Yu's Yu is Shadow!Yu words, which may as well be his self-inflicted delusion to resist his programming to kill us. His Arcana could allow itThird: We already know VR residents aren't human. Even if Yu doesn't know, that's a sort of knowledge he can ignoreFourth: Igor can't know what's creating false shadows, that would break the plotFifth: the game phrase is just a metaphor. He just meant to say that things are happening again
>>30138700crack theory: We are the same race as a Velvet Resident, but "playing" as Yu Narukami.
>>30140720>First: We have no reason to think that missing memories are that important to warrant a hypnotistThis is...why? This is just being oblivious in fear of acting meta. Geez.
>>30144250I explicitly remember it being described by GOP as "probably nothing important"
>>30144286I don't see it on foolz, and GoldenOP doesn't actually dislike this AFAIK, let alone dislike us being proactive in trying to solve something. He has repeatedly said he has done foreshadowing and that we've missed hints. ...Nor can I find the post where it said we had a memory gap, though
>>30144476Well find itI think it was said there "it probably wasn't anything important, just saying some goodbyes"Anyway, if there's anything I want to investigate is Yu's parentsThey were hinted to be Hero and Heroine from SMTI. Although since it would make no sense it's probably just a reference of some kind
>>30144548I"Ll just wait for GOP.I don't think they literally are from SMT. Well, it's possible with how we have all of these non-Persona 4 things in the quest. I think it's meant to be a hint on our QPC, though.

Dammit GOP
>>30150066Yeah, sorry about vanishing outright again. I overslept, and then realized I had shit to do. Here, have an update.==================>Ask about contracts>Mines or forest tomorrowYou wait for a moment, before turning to Yukiko."This is unrelated, but... I've been thinking. Amagi, were you ever offered a contract? Even in a dream?" You ask, getting a surprised look. "Anything that could even be thought of as one somehow?"Yukiko is silent for a moment, and you turn to Kanji as well."And what about you, Tatsumi? You gained a Persona in mostly the same way, right?"There's a minute of silence, and both shake their heads. "No, just that agreement we all made to hunt down the JOKER summoner." Yukiko says. "Why?""As I said, I've been thinking. A few things Igor mentioned are making me a bit nervous." You shrug. "I want to make sure I'm not missing anything."You see Yosuke start to say something, then shake his head. "Yeah, I can see why you'd do that, partner." He says after a second. "Still, that's not much to go on...."The group goes silent for a minute again, before you sigh. "Yeah, I had hoped to get some more info out of this line of thought." You say, standing up. "Anyway, we should plan to go visit either the mines or the forest tomorrow, and see what we can find out about those 'demon' rumors."The others nod, and you hear the bell start to ring. Class time. ....After finishing up with classes for the day, you find yourself thinking about possible things to do...You need to talk to Igor, obviously, as well as to Dojima. There's also the fact that you basically got invited to the basketball club's practice this afternoon to consider... Of course, before you do any of that, you need to walk Nanako home...>Velvet Room>Home and wait for Dojima>Basketball >Write in
>>30151618>Go polish balls
>>30151618>Basketball now>Talk to Dojima>run to the Velvet Room
>>30151618>BasketballAfter that:>DojimaFollowed by:>Velvet RoomI'd rather we get prepped by him, and ask him those other things too.
>>30144548>One hour is missing, the day he was saying goodbyes as he was getting ready to go to Inaba. >Of course, it could just be tiredness....Given how GOP is all about foreshadowing and hints to where he expects us to be able to figure out Yu's identity from just those, I doubt he's against this.IC, it's pretty significant. 1 entire, specific hour he can't remember. This was after he said his goodbyes, and before he got off the train.
>2 hours
>>30154240I know, I know. I'm working on it. Blame the guy who asked me about my exact words from 4 threads ago.
>BasketballYou nod to yourself, setting your course for the gymnasium. Briefly sticking your head in to let Kou, know that you'll be back after walking your little cousin home....Finally returning, you get introduce yourself to the team proper, and get changed to join their practice. Looks like you missed meeting the new manager, too......After about an hour or so, the other members of the team seem to have trickled off, leaving only you and Kou left in the gym."Sorry about that." Kou says, somewhat sheepishly. "The guys usually try and quit early.""Not really your fault." You shrug. "You want help cleaning up, then?"He nods. "Yeah, we've gotta polish those balls, man." He says with a grin, glancing over to see the side door open. "Oh, hey Daisuke!"You glance over, catching sight of another boy, in a school tracksuit. Looks like he's in another club... "Hey, Kou. Managed to rope someone else into helping you for a change?" He gives a wave, walking across the court. Nodding to you, he offers a handshake. "Daisuke Nagisa. Good to meet you." He says, smiling. "Glad to see Kou's finally gotten someone interested in the club for more than some grades." "Yu Narukami." You nod, responding with a firm handshake. "I've always been kinda interested in the sport, and I figured I'd take this chance to try it out while I'm staying here.""Yeah, even though half of us seem to skip, the games still pr/etty fun." Kou says. "Anyway, we gotta get this done, don't we? Help me out a bit, Daisuke." Both you and Daisuke nod, and the three of you set to cleaning the gym up...>You can feel a new bond forming...Stretching your neck and shoulders as you walk out of the school gates, you check on the time. Almost three hours since school ended... What to do now...>Go home and see if Dojima is there yet>Go hang around the shopping district for a while>Junes!>Write in>Sheet updated
>>30154794>Text/Call Dojima to see if he's home yet for the talk>Go to the shopping district or Junes if he's not there
>>30154794>Call Dojima to ask if he's home>go hang around Junes if he's not, go home if he is
>>30154794Have a chat with Igor about demons.
>>30154794>Go home and see if Dojima is there yetIf Dojima is still working he might not be able to pick up the phone
>>30154794>Call Dojima to ask if he's home
If Dojima isn't home, maybe we can go out with Nanako? See our friends with her? We still lack a social link with her after all, and she isn't annoying as a character.
>>30155520>Walk Nanako home>She stays home alone until we or Dojima gets back by dinner timeSad
>>30154794>>Go hang around the shopping district for a while
>>30154794>Go home and see if Dojima is there yet
>4 check on Dojima>1 Igor>1 hang around shopping district>Writing
>Check with DojimaShrugging to yourself, you start on your way home, pulling out your phone and sending an email to your uncle asking if he's home yet. May as well get going as you wait for a response, too. When you get about halfway home, your phone beeps, and checking your messages, it seems like he'll be another few hours. ...What to do with your time, then? >Write in
>>30156082Go find igor for now.
>>30156082Help nanko with her school work, make some snacks. Spend time with imouto.
>>30156082Go talk to Igor and fuse some personas
>>30156082Spend time with Nanako.>>30156195>>30156304After Dojima
>>30156082Grind ssocial links with nanako
>Giving it 10 more minutes while I grab some chow.
>Time with NanakoYou shrug and continue on. For all the time you've spent with Nanako, you haven't actually gotten to know her much, have you? Maybe you could spend some time with her today....Within a few minutes, you've finally made it back to the Dojima residence. Heading in, you see Nanako sitting in the living room, watching TV. ..She seems bored. "Hey Nanako." You say, walking over to her. "You done with your homework?""Yeah." She nods, turning to face you. ...There's a brief silence. There goes your first plan to spend time with her.What to do...?>Write in
>>30157251Bring her out to Junes, obviously.
>>30157251>Wanna go to Junes?
>Writing, I suppose.
>Wanna go to Junes?You shrug mentally. May as well."Say, want to go out to Junes with me?" You ask.There's a moment, before Nanako seems to light up. "Really?" She asks, looking at you with big eyes. You can swear she's somehow gained a flowery background behind her...You nod. "Yeah. We can eat something at the food court. I'll let uncle Ryo know where we'll be." You say, pulling out your phone and preparing to send a quick email."Yaaaaaayyyy~!"...After a short time of getting ready, and a while of walking, you and Nanako are sitting in the Junes food court, basket of fries between you as you watch the crowds. >Talk to Nanako about...? [Write in]>Write in
>>30158655Ask about hobbies, and did she get that excited for a simple mall trip
>>30158655>>Talk to Nanako about...? [Write in]Ask her about her day at school today, what did she do, etc.
>>30158655>>30158841lets go with this
>Writing, then.
>Hobbies, excitement"So, Nanako, do you have any hobbies?" You ask, stretching a bit and glancing over at your little cousin. "I like cooking, but haven't been doing it much since you came here." She says, shaking her head."Any TV shows you like, then?" "Loveline!" Nanako pauses at your blank look. "Magical Detective Loveline! It's about a magical girl who solves mysteries!"...Can't be any stupider than Featherman was, you guess. "Huh. Sounds... Interesting." You shrug. The two of you go quiet as you finish off the fries...."So, why so excited about a simple mall trip?" You ask. ...Nanako seems to get a bit less cheerful..."Well... Dad isn't home much..." She says. "So I sing the Junes song to keep myself from feeling lonely.""And I like Junes because dad brings me here when he has time."That took a turn for the depressing. "But now that you're here, big bro, I don't feel so lonely all the time..." Nanako seems to sparkle at you again.>You feel a new bond beginning to form and strengthen......You spend some time shopping at Junes with Nanako before going home......Standing in the kitchen, you know what must be done. Dinner must be prepared, and your ingredients are waiting for you.>Cook? [1d20]

>Cook! 17!You set to work, getting the main dish read as the sauce simmers. After a short while, you hear the door open, and Dojima walks by, giving you a nod. After another while, you finish preparing dinner, placing it on the table in the living room as you join Dojima and Nanako. ....The three of you eat dinner in quiet, and eventually settle into your evening routine as you finish washing dishes. Waiting until Nanako goes to bed, you sit down at the kitchen table, across from Dojima. "So, Yu. You wanted to talk to me about something?" He asks, looking over at you with a serious expression."Yeah. I actually need some advice on what questions I should be asking when I go talk to Igor." Dojima sighs, but nods. "Alright. What do you have already?"
Alright, this is a good enough place to stop for the thread. Consider the>Thread overI'm gonna go crash, and will be willing to answer a few questions when I get up. 'night. Pic unrelated, yet terrifying
>>30161718I'm glad PQ ain't dead yet.Thanks gop
>>30161718It looks more stupid than creepy, although that may be an upgrade depending on your perspectiveHow actually terrifying this is depends on how much Igor and how much Kyuubey the personality is.
