“You’re right, my dear little sister. This is most irregular.” The boy says. “The Velvet Room hasn’t had a guest for, what, nearly eighty years?”

“If he’s here, it means something exciting is about to happen!” The girl giggles.

“And not a moment too soon. This place is getting boring.”

“Nii-san, that kid is staring at us. We should introduce ourselves.”

“You’re right. Where are my manners? Hey kid over there! Welcome to the Velvet Room.” The boy announces. Out of habit, you point at yourself. “Yeah, you. As you can see, the place is a bit of a mess at the moment.”

“That’s because the previous proprietor lost a bet and got himself kicked out. What a loser!” The girl laughs. “This place was too good to pass up, so we moved in.”

“Usually this is the point where we talk a bit about responsibilities and a bunch of other cryptic nonsense, maybe do a bit of card shuffling on the side or have you sign a contract.” The boy goes. “But this is our domain, so now our rules apply. Now tell me kid…what’s your favourite method of hurting people?”

“So you say you have no need for a weapon?” the boy asks. “You intend to overcome life’s grievances by punching them in the face?”

“Weapons were invented for a reason, you know.” The girl giggles. “You might be at a disadvantage.”

“This might be an interesting perspective, though. Who knows, he might actually succeed.” The boy continues. “He could potentially beat out his predecessor.”

“Or maybe he’ll die in a shallow grave! That seems so much more likely! Ahahaha!” The girl then laughs, a shrill cackle. The boy then joins in, his voice hoarse and loud. You feel a little insulted by this.

“It’s right there, kid.” You can faintly make out the silhouette of an index finger pointing directly at your face. “You’re wearing it right now. Can’t you feel it?”

“He probably doesn’t realize it yet.” The boy whispers to his sister. “Give him time. The look on his face will be priceless.”

“Well…we’ve both waited for almost a hundred years, nii-san.” The girl cheers up. “I guess a couple more days won’t hurt!”

“Now then kid…question time is over.” The boy speaks. “For now, at least. We’ve got business to do. Come closer.”

As if by instinct, your legs take you forward. They feel heavy, like solid concrete thumping down on a patch of earth. The figures are getting closer and closer by the second. You see that both of them are sporting wicked grins, revealing rows of white teeth.

As if by instinct, your legs take you forward. They feel heavy, like solid concrete thumping down on a patch of earth. The figures are getting closer and closer by the second. You see that both of them are sporting wicked grin, revealing rows of white sheet.

You stop at a table. A candle has been placed on it and through its illumination you see two things: a very old-fashioned quill ink pen and a large, ornate sheet of paper.

“We would like you to sign this contract before you go.” The boy gestures. “It’s ridiculously long, so I don’t blame you if you don’t want to read it. All it says is that you have to abide by the contract, and accept the responsibilities for the decisions you make.”

“You might as well do as nii-san says.” The girl says. “It’s not like you actually have a choice in the matter.”

“Well? Get to it, kid…”

You scan the contract. True to the boy’s words, it’s long. Ridiculously long. For some reason, it has been printed in multiple languages with Japanese being the number one at the top. You skim through it, verifying that the boy’s word was correct. Every sentence seems to be doing its best to abide by the principles of purple prose. Eventually, you reach the end to the signature portion. There are six other names there, but for some reason all of them are incomprehensible and garbled. You ignore them and raise the quill. Your last name is Wakui. Your first name is…

>Arata, the charismatic.

“Don’t die!” His sister snickers. “Enjoy your life!”

“Return to your world. We’ll meet again, very soon…”

I'm more partial to making it a point to kill painlessly. True emotional damage mid-combat, while easier with SPOOKY personae, is really difficult to do in enemy territory.

Then there's the fact that we would have to spend disproportionate amounts of thread time learning the backstories of all our opponents just to fuck with them, since that's the only way we can really beat them.

[27-Mar-2129]

Your name is Takashi Wakui. You are an ordinary, sixteen-year old high-school student living in the city of Akumachi, located inside the National Empire of Japan. Your family consists of an oft-overseas father, a strict businesswoman mother who frequently is away from the apartment block you call home, a gentle older sister and you.

“I’m up…I’m up…”

Right now, it is the last week before the summer break ends. After that, you will have to return to a dull routine of study, rest and school. You recall spending your holidays holed up in your room or mucking about outside with a few acquaintances. Nothing of worth was really accomplished during this time, but you don’t mind.

The time is now seven-thirty in the morning. The rush hour is already in full swing, cars packed along the city’s many highways like farm-grown sardines in cans. Their incessant beeping and honking has roused you from your slumber, far more vicious than any alarm clock application on the market. At least there isn’t any stench of badly-burned petrol. Such methods of generating electricity had died out at least forty years ago.

You stand in your bedroom, fully clothed. What will you do…?

>Head straight downstairs for breakfast, food awaits.
>Open your window and look outside.
>Contemplate objects around your room.
>Mess around with your phone.

>>Open your window and look outside.

Groggily, you press a button on the window pane. Your mind feels like someone had put it in a blender and set it to high. It’s aching and dizzy. You barely register your bedroom window sliding open with a hiss. Modern technology sure is convenient.

From here, you receive a good look of the city of Akumachi, your home. Yup, the placeis still standing. It would really be terrible if it wasn’t. Skyscrapers of steel and concrete rising everywhere, wind fans spinning around like gigantic pinwheels, a monorail twisting above the streets like a gigantic titanium snake. The skies are clear and blue, which is good. The sound of chatter spreads all the way towards the distance. It's all static to your ears.

In this city are approximately twenty-five million individuals, each one going about their daily lives. Some rich, others poor. There are many young and nearly as many old. Gifted, the ordinary and the cursed. And most importantly, half the population possesses the mystical power of the Persona. The rest aren’t so lucky.

For reference, the National Empire of Japan contains approximately 40% of the world’s Persona users. In fact, Akumachi City was specifically designed to study the phenomenon of Personas—the power to manifest’s one inner self as a being from folklore or mythology.

As you are contemplating this piece of information, you notice a shrill buzzing noise in your room. It’s your phone, still plugged into your charger.

“Dammit, what is it now?”

You have received a new notification, it seems.

It’s a game installed on your mobile. Although, saying that would imply that you chose it out of your own volition. It couldn’t be any further from the truth. This application had latched onto your operating system like a persistent tick onto a hippo and remained there ever since. Any attempts to remove it were fruitless, claiming that you didn’t have sufficient ‘administrator privileges’. That didn’t make any bloody sense! You WERE the administrator of your phone! You had tried searching for help on the Internet, but to no avail. Absolutely nobody had heard of the game, which was really weird. To make matters worse, it sucked up around twenty percent of your phone’s RAM, all 256 GB of it.

You wouldn’t mind so much if the game was actually good. The problem was, it didn’t work at all. OPTIONS and HELP were completely broken. Pressing CONTINUE only took you to a single page with a few lines of text scrawled on it. It couldn’t even do that right. The text was all garbled and scrambled. Out of curiosity, you press it.

>>Ignore it, head down for breakfast.

Fuck it. You don’t have time to deal with this buggy phone of yours. Wiping your OS and reinstalling it will have to wait for another day. Your stomach is growling, salivating for snacks and genetically modified food. It’s time for breakfast.

You exit your room, the door sliding shut behind you. The kitchen is downwards through a small flight of stairs. Hunger driving you, you race down them towards the dining room.

When you reach there, the kitchen is empty. Not a single piece of toast has been heated up. This is odd. Normally your sister, Shizuka Wakui, does all the cooking, at least when your mother is absent. Which she has been from the past two months. To give her credit, your beloved Nee-san is a fantastic cook, capable of making all sorts of delicious dishes. One wouldn’t think it from the way she takes life so casually.

…there’s a note on the table. You pick it up.

>Sorry Takashi! Your Nee-san had to pull overtime last night. I’m feeling really tired, so can you make yourself breakfast? There should be some microwave meal packs in the fridge.

Oh, that explains it. Yeah, you remember. Your Nee-san works the night shift as a hybrid of police officer and security guard. You would bet any amount of Macca that she’s asleep in her room right now, snoring loudly. Well, her work involves long hours of strenuous work, so you’d best not to bother her.

As you head over to the kitchen, your eyes catch a piece of paper framed on the wall.

It’s a certificate Shizuka received from her own high-school days. Certificates in modern society are usually awarded via computers, but Shizuka decided to print it out and hang it up on the dining room wall. Her justification was that it looked nice. It was hard to argue with her. Shizuka received from winning a Persona fighting tournament in her third year. She demonstrated the power of the Strength Arcana to the entire student body. Then she went on to conquer all the other schools in the district as well. It just made her exponentially more infamous.

What was the type of school Shizuka attended? It was…

>>An ordinary high school.

That’s right. Shizuka went to an ordinary high school. The very same one you are attending right now. It had a mixture of both Persona wielders and non-Persona individuals, but the former still outnumbered the latter around two to one. Nevertheless, it made Shizuka’s victory over the other pure Persona facilities all the more amazing.

You, on the other hand, aren’t so lucky. Most children awaken their Persona at the age between ten and fifteen. Their potential bursts out from them in a blaze of cobalt, summoning their inner self for the world to see. Any magic is also unlocked at that point. You have lived your entire life without going through this process. Very few gain their Persona at the age of sixteen.

You have not yet awakened your Persona, and you likely never will.

It puts you at a loss, as society was beginning to be tilted in favour of those who could summon demons and shoot fire from their hands.

You take out a plastic-wrapped meal and zap in the microwave. It takes roughly ten seconds. You place your steaming hot meal on the table and eat. The food consists of a traditional English breakfast. Well, as traditional as the food of now was. The sausages were half hormone, the tomatoes were definitely genetically engineered to be red as Rudolph’s nose and the eggs had likely been grown in mass cage farms. It still tasted alright, and the humans of today’s world couldn’t afford to be picky. Overpopulation and extended lifespans had forced countries to seek ways of mass producing food, no matter how many environmentalists complained along the way. Japan specialized in gigantic glasshouses full of GM'ed vegetables.

You finish your breakfast and stand up. The plastic plate is immediately discarded into a bin. It will be taken down a chute and deposited into an apartment trash dump. That will be recycled and processed for plastic, metal and paper. Even the leftovers would be converted into natural oil.

Your schedule is free right now. What will you do?

>>Fix your phone.

You go and do that. The installation package for your OS is easy to find in this golden age of Internet. Of course it is, it’s based on Linux. You set your PC to download the file of a hundred gigabytes. Thankfully, you live in a world where the Internet connection is ludicrously fast (200 Terabytes/second, for your home) and processors have reached insane levels of speed. The download is timed in nanoseconds and your 40 Ghz phone processor gets to work wiping your hard drive and reinstalling the OS from scratch.

You rub in your hands in glee at the thought of finally ridding yourself of the malware. This is going to be such a load off your mind.

In less than twenty minutes, which you spent browsing for junk on the Internet, the OS has been successfully reinstalled. All of your music and video clips have been wiped clean. The desktop background of a Baphomet Persona has been replaced by Ubuntu’s standard orange-neon one and the default music player is just plain shit. Good thing backups exist! You proceed to restore your phone back to the way it was.

Only that would be a seriously bad mistake as firstly, the phone you bought is as sturdy as those ancient Nokia monstrosities and secondly, you somehow know that even if you successfully did so, AETHER would follow you onto the next phone you bought. This thing is more than a virus.

It's a nightmare.

…you feel like crying at the moment.

Before any salty tears trickle down your cheek, the doorbell rings. Grateful for the distraction, you head downstairs.

You see someone through the one-way peephole. A voice rings through the intercom.

“Hello? Is anybody home?”

>>Communicate through the intercom, ask her business here.

You press the intercom button.

“I’m here.” You say. “What is it?”

“Hey, you’re that guy from earlier!” The girl exclaims. Auburn hair, headphones humming away with the latest pop song, pleat skirt and stockings. “Great, you’re home. I was kinda worried you wouldn’t be.”

“Yeah, it’s me.” You reply. “So…can I have an answer as to why you’re here?”

A few days ago, you and your sister discovered this girl heaving a set of luggage, almost of which were bursting from the seams, towards the elevator on the ground floor of your apartment building. For some reason, her parents were nobody to be seen. Shizuka must’ve felt sorry for the girl and events conspired to have you carrying suitcases and boxes upstairs for the rest of the morning. Of course, your sister did the bulk of the work. She had the strength to smash apart concrete blocks with her fists.

“I just wanted to say thanks for helping me moving in.” The girl continues. “Because those trunks were really heavy! My back would’ve died if it weren’t for you two.”

“…it wasn’t a problem. And you shouldn’t be thanking me. My Nee-san did most of the work.”

“Still, you helped. So I wanted to thank you.” The girl smiles. “I brought over some candy. It’s not much, but please, accept it!”

“You didn’t have to do that.”

“Yeah, but I heard that gift-giving is part of Japanese culture. So take it!”

You choose this moment to open the door and greet her. A plastic bag is held in her hands. It is apparently full of jelly babies of all kinds of flavours.

You stare at the girl. She’s sucking on a lollipop. Come to think of it, she was also sucking on a lollipop on the day she moved in. You realize that she has a fondness for sweets. The fact that she is still somewhat slim is nothing short of an accomplishment.

“Well, if you’re offering I won’t say no.” You take the pack of jelly babies from her and inspect them. Or rather, Jack Frost jellies. The amount of flavours on the package is nothing short of staggering. Strawberry, pineapple, lemon, watermelon…this pack of candy is truly above the norm. You don’t think you’ve seen sweets like these in the local convenience stores.

“These are foreign sweets.” You eye the girl up and down. “So you’re a foreigner.”

“Uh-huh.” The girl nods. “I always get that.”

“But you knew about our gift-giving practises. You look you know Akumachi City ewll.” You mutter. “And I know I’ve seen these Jack Frost jellies on the Internet. Are you…part-American?”

“I’m impressed! You’re the first person who’s guessed correctly.” The girl smiles. “Most people think I’m pure American or even Canadian.”

“That sounds silly.” You remark.

“I know, right?” The girl giggles.

>Your UNDERSTANDING has increased by 1!

“I’m Celeste Tachibana.” The girl says, stretching out her hand. You tentatively shake it. “Nice to meet you, neighbour.”

“…Takashi Wakui.” You reply. “So, you said you were part-American?”

“Yeah. I was actually born in Japan, but I had to move to America when I was young.” Celeste continues. “It was because of my father’s work. We got a chance to come back here last year.”

“Sounds interesting.” You say. “I’m fully Japanese. Born here, will probably die here.”

“Sounds morbid.” Celeste comments.

“It’s the truth.” You shrug, “So Tachibana-san, remind me where you’re apartment was…”

“On the floor above you.” Celeste says. “Room 5233. You can come over and say hi at any time.”

“You feeling lonely?”

“Naw!” Celeste laughs. “I have lots of friends I can chat to. But really, I don’t mind company.”

“I’ll keep that in mind.” You grunt. “Uh, thanks for the candy. I’ll be sure to eat it.”

“You should. Jack Frost jellies are the best!” Celeste grins. Then she withdraws a phone from her pocket and checks it. Her grin, fades somewhat. “Oh man. Uh, I’ve gotta go and head downstairs for a bit. Paperwork and stuff. So I guess I’ll see you later!”

“Bye, Tachibana-san.” You reply, and watch as she dashes down the stairs.

You open up the bag of jellies and take one. It is raspberry flavoured. Celeste was right, this is delicious.

…

[Later in the evening…]

“I’m going, Takashi!”

“Alright, see you in the morning!”

Your Nee-san exits the residence and heads off to work. You stretch your arms and yawn. It is eight at night. You are alone in the house. What will you do?

If I know anything from Persona games it's that the tv always has info, always.

This won't always be the case. If you had chosen to refuse the sweets, your UNDERSTANDING would have increased by 2 instead of 1. Because as the narrative describes, Celeste's parents aren't with her and she might need the sweets later on. Just keep stuff like that in mind.

On another note, this thread became a lot more popular than I envisioned.

Writing now...

>>40750714
dude. Persona. You're grabbing the gamefags AND the animefags AND the people who played the OLD old Persona games.

and you write faster than GoldenOP.

>>40750734
OP has all the fags

>>40750734
Why only people that played the old ones?

>>40750798
I tacked it on after I realized "gamefags" can be conceivably interpreted as just those who played Persona 3 and beyond.

That "game" earlier said something was going to happen at 6:30, we might find out what that was about.

Might as well turn on the TV for a bit. It’s not like you have anything else better to do.

The National Empire of Japan news appears.

“…another body was found in the old industrial sector of Akumachi City, a look of terror on his face and his heart apparently gouged out from his chest…”

“It seems we have an organ thief on the loose…”

“Police investigations aren’t so quick to judge. The body is being sent for an in-depth autopsy. The child’s parents are inconsolable…”

“Belongings of previous victims found missing…phones and other computing devices said to be untraceable…”

This thing again? Bodies of kids like you had been popping up all across Akumachi City, all of them with their organs removed. What was confusing was how infrequent the killer was. The largest gap between murders was two months. Anyway, this doesn’t really concern you. Shit’s been happening for half a year already. You’re not the type of person to go wandering in abandoned parts of the city in the dead of night.

You motion to switch the channel. The machine complies.

Cheesy and synthesized pop music immediately assaults your ears.

“Don’t be so nice to me, as I won’t how know to react to that…” the music goes, “With all these heaped-up words, I can hardly see your face…”

You are now watching a music channel. This one is showing a live concert in the heart of Tokyo. The roar of the crowd is deafening. The sweat collected from all the bodies could fill up a thousand swimming pools. The place looks to be as hot as Ragnarok itself. The idols dancing and singings on stage would be fairly typical fare, if it weren’t for the fact that they were all advertised as sentient androids. Rin of AEGIS III, Karen of METIS II and Nao of LABRYS IV. Additionally, they are summoning their Personas to assist with the dance.

This would be a great shock to you, if it weren’t for the fact that you’ve seen similar programs about a hundred times. Thankfully they’ve all reached the point where the uncanny valley effect no longer applies.

…song is rather nice, you gotta admit.

You eat more Jack Frost candy. You have long passed the point where it is considered to be acceptably healthy, but you just don’t care.

Two more hours of bumming around the house later, you put yourself to bed.

[28-Mar-2129]

The next day passes like usual. You wake up, eat breakfast cooked by Shizuka and spend the rest of the morning playing video games. Lunch flies past, and you find yourself feeling rather tired. So you head to your room for a nap.

You dream about absolutely nothing at all.

…

Hours later, you open your eyes to see your sister’s face.

“Good afternoon, Takashi.” She smiles.

>Climb out of bed.
>Ask her politely to get those things out of your face.
