You are Takashi Wakui, a sixteen year old Japanese high school student. In your world, half of humanity possesses a Persona—the corporeal manifestation of one’s personality as a supernatural entity. You had been an unlucky ordinary at first, lacking the potential to summon your Persona. Then the application AETHER was forcibly installed on your smartphone. It sucked you into the nightmarish realm of the Blackened Void, where you fought monsters and awakened your Persona in the process.

You are now the Wild Card of the 22nd Century. You possess the Fool Arcana, giving you the power to draw strength from bonds and wield multiple Personas at once. Already this places you in great danger, as the Fool Arcana is seen as an impossibility by the common masses. Revealing your newfound power to the common world would immediately land your head on a dissection table. To make matters worse, you and several others have been cursed as the Void’s Chosen, fated to traverse the wastelands of the Blackened Void until the end of the game. For what purpose does AETHER exist, what mysteries lie within and how is victory achieved?

[6:50 am, 2-Jun-2129 (THURSDAY)]

Today, you wake up differently. It is not the shrill rumble of the morning rush traffic that snaps you away from your dreams, nor is it the shrieking of your bedside alarm—a sensation that is as loud as a grenade and as painful as one of your kaa-san’s strikes to the temple. Rather, it is the gentle sensation of a rough hand brushing against your fringe that rouses you from your slumber. Your eyelids unstick themselves apart, parting a thin veil of tears, and you catch a faceful of raw muscle and messy navy-blue hair.

“Morning, little bro.” Shizuka, your older sister, smiles.

“Umpphh…” You mumble. “What day is it…?”

It’s a silly question. By the time you finish muttering that sentence, your brain has shaken off the last traces of lethargy and you know. Today is the day not unlike others in the past. It is a day you have marked on your respective virtual respective calendars, watching as the hours and minutes tick downwards. The inner child inside of you has been awaiting this, yet its grown-up counterpart is filled with nothing but anxiety.

Yes, today is the day your sister leaves for inner Tokyo to train the newest batch of Anti-Shadow Operative rookies. It means that you will have the house to yourself for the next month, unless kaa-san decides to return home for some reason. Unlikely, considering the mountains of paperwork she is buried beneath.

It also means that no-one will be cooking for you for the next couple of weeks. This is likely to be terrible. That, or liable to extend your waistline by a number of inches.

“Breakfast is on the table.” Shizuka says, “I’d love to go with you, but I have a train to catch.”

“You have to leave that early?”

“Didn’t we talk about this yesterday?”

“It’s still crappy.”

“You know it is, regulations and all that. I’m not outside the law.” She leans closer and ruffles your bed-hair. It now resembles a nest created by the world’s most drunk sparrow. You grunt and try to prise her off. “I couldn’t leave without saying goodbye to my cute little brother, though.”

You sit up, shedding off your blanket like an old skin.

Two weeks, I think. And we should also go to the Forlorn Abyss, and sign up to become the House Assistant, and start dueling, and go to drama club, and help Takauji deal with his harem... Takashi has a very full plate.

So what's on our current to-do list? It looks like the last quest update was about the Chikashi Abomination, so we don't have anything urgent for at least the next little while. So I'm thinking: go to clubs in the afternoon for stat gains and Social Links, study in the evenings because we need to start working on Intelligence again, hit the Hazebound Woods on the weekends to get Celeste's companion and since we're not going to be able to do anything with Shizuka, and on Fridays go to the dueling grounds because I really want to do that at some point, especially now that we can cheat properly with Augmentation.

>>46887014
We also have to visit the ghost girl.

>>46887045
Good point, we can do that Sunday evenings, she's available then. Normally we'd go for Shizuka since that's the only time she's available, but she's not here now.

>>46887009
We've got a strength-focused Persona, so raising that is a good idea. We should also focus more on Magic Potential, to maximize Persona Augmentation and Chi Casting. I want us to get Ultimate Hit at some point, that would be so satisfying. "Fuck your damage immunities, my punches are Almighty!"

Yeah, but strengthening Social Links, completing side quests, and dueling will all contribute to leveling up. I didn't think it needed a separate entrance.

“I’m going to really miss you.” It’s a little difficult for you to admit, but it’s true. Without your older sister around, who has cared, supported and loved you ever since your accident, it will feel like missing an arm or a leg.

“Me too, Takashi. Me too!” Shizuka half cries, half sobs. She then wraps you into a hug so tight an anaconda would feel jealous. Your breath vanishes down your throat. You choke. A crack rings through the air, sounding suspiciously like a spine fracturing. It’s not helped by the twin mounds of round flesh blocking any chance of oxygen entering your system. “It’s going to be so lonely without you! I won’t see you wake up in the morning, enjoy the food I prepare, get the chance to eat dinner with you, tuck you into bed…oh my god, this next month is going to be absolute hell! How will I cope?”

You shove Shizuka back. It’s like trying to push a slab of concrete with only your bare fists. “You haven’t done that last one since the start of middle school!” You bark.

“True. I really will miss you, though.” Shizuka mumbles. Then a metaphorical lightbulb pops into existence above her head. “I know! I’ll call you every day.”

“Please no.” You groan. “It didn’t stop being annoying the last time something like this happened.”

“But how will I know if you’re alright?”

“Just send me a text.” You roll your eyes.

“You never reply to them!”

“I swear I will this time.” You vaguely remember stating something like this in the past, but shrug it off. “Seriously, nee-san. I’m not a baby.”

She pouts. “Fine…you better reply to them, however. I don’t want to hear any excuses! If you don’t talk me to every once in a while, I’ll become worried sick. You wouldn’t want that to happen to your nee-san, right?”

“Yeah, sure.” You say. “Is there anything else?”

I think this is the first confirmation we have that Takashi actually remembers what happened to him, and hasn't just suppressed it. Interesting.

>>46887009
Dexterity or Agility, so we can have everything above E rank.

>>46887014
Honestly, for dueling I think we should stick with using only Ippon-Datara, like when we fought Celeste. Using the Wild Card for duels, when we have lots of eyes upon us, carries way too many risks. Like people wondering how we have access to so many skills when we've only had our Persona for literally a bit over two months, or what might happen if any of them notice just how many resistances we have.

Also, it IS cheating. The Wild Card gives us a massive leg up over the competition, and it's one that nobody who would otherwise be an equal match for us can compete with. It would be like bringing a sword to a knife fight, or maybe bringing a lot of knives, except they're all invisible but one. I think that duels should be a way for Takashi to test his own mettle, without relying on the Wild Card.

“The usual reminders.” Shizuka points to the door. “Your breakfast is on the table. I’ve made a batch of food in the fridge. Eat as much of it as you like, but try to regulate your meals. Don’t pig out on candies and chocolate again.”

“The memories of me puking into the toilet has fully discouraged me from doing that again.”

“Don’t forget to wash the dishes after eating. I’ve bought a new bottle of dishwashing liquid. You don’t have to worry about the rest of the housework, I’ll take care of it when I get back.”

“Got it.”

“I’ll send you money for groceries every week. Be careful around the stoves if you’re going to be cooking by yourself. Check for strangers before you open the door. If there’s any emergency, call me or kaa-san immediately.”

“I’m starting to think you still consider me a little kid, nee-san.”

“Well, in some ways, you are.” Shizuka whispers. “The world is big and scary place. I want to keep you safe. It’s already bad enough kaa-san and I have to leave you alone at home.”

“Like I said…”

She nods. “I know, I know. It’s worked the last couple of times and you’re more mature now. I’m just making sure. There’s nothing wrong with that.”

Silence. You can’t find anything else to speak.

“Goodbye, Takashi.” Leaning forward, your beloved older sister plants a small kiss on your forehead. Her smile is sad, forlorn. Something shines in her eyes. “Be safe. See you next July.”

“Goodbye, nee-san.”

>>46887257
I understand that, but I think it's worth the risk. We're already establishing a reputation as some sort of late-blooming prodigy, if we pull out a lot of skills it won't look too weird. And if we're clever about it, they won't even realize we're switching resistances, they'll just think we have a high defense stat and that's why we're not taking damage.

As for it being dishonorable, I don't see it that way. The Wild Card is who Takashi is. It's part of him, no matter what the squatters try to say. It would be his own power he's using, not some unfair cheat. It's not wrong for someone with a particularly powerful Persona to duel with it, neither is this. He is the Wild Card, the holy Fool. Using that power is his right, and to shy away from it and treat it as something only to be used in life-or-death emergencies is going to cripple his development.

>>Shizuka: Leave.

You hear the faint hiss of the front door sliding open, followed by the heavy thuds that only military-grade combat boots could provide. You lie in bed, staring at the ceiling, mind numb, before realizing that school is on and climbing out. Off goes your singlet, on comes your uniform. Buttons up, tie in a knot, socks rolled up, the whole formal works.

Breakfast is on the table. A bowl of white rice, a fried egg with soy sauce on top and a small bowl of onions mixed in with miso soup. The platter is still hot; through the light shining down from the ceiling, you can make out the image of steam rising from the soup bowl. The chair squeals like a small animal as you pull it out. You sit down.

A spoon finds its way into your hands. You scoop up a bit of the soup of shove it into your mouth. Next is the egg, which is trapped between a pair of chopsticks. A blob of rice soaks up the soy sauce and you revel in the deliciousness of the meal. You take a second bite, a third and a fourth. Mmm, this is delicious. Shizuka has outdone herself today. You wonder how you should compliment her when she gets back.

A nearby clock counts down the minutes before the first class of the day. You continue to shovel the contents of the meal into your mouth. In the kitchen, the refrigerator hums.

>>46887351
I disagree. Using the Wild Card in a duel is cowardly. It's a poorly-understood, nigh-mythical power that was forced onto us by an entity with goals that we don't understand, and probably never will. In the context of the kill-or-be-killed, survive-against-all-odds Blackened Void, it's highly valuable and keeping us alive, but in the context of the rule-oriented world of dueling, it's like using a corked bat.

And, by giving ourselves a handicap in duels, we're actually challenging ourselves, rather than coasting past the competition with the ability to adapt to anything they throw at us and use a multitude of skills without spending the time to learn them. To quote the pastebin:

>Power of Bonds: The Wild Card allows Takashi to transform his bonds into power. By advancing his Social Links, his Personas will grow stronger. The exception is his main Persona, which must be developed manually.

Ippon-Datara is OUR Persona. By using only that, we're truly testing ourselves, rather than relying on how many friends we have. It would be like that trope where the plucky hero is able to overpower a far stronger villain thanks to the "power of friendship", screaming a whole lot, and having a hairstyle that requires more hair product than the average 1950s greaser gang.

[12:40 pm, 2-Jun-2129 (THURSDAY)]

Fast forward to midday, where you are eating lunch in the academy cafeteria as usual. Celeste, Takauji and Kanami have joined you. Your best friend is by your side, chewing on a piece of pineapple, while Takauji and Kanami are at the opposite side of the table, with Kanami millimetres away from invading Takauji’s private space. With evidence of an alternate dimension plastered to your phone’s hard drive, you are so grateful for the semblance of normality in your life. It almost makes the more ludicrous part of your personality shed a single manly tear.

“So, what happened yesterday?” Takauji asks. “Spill, man.”

You turn to Celeste. “Did you tell them about this?”

She shrugs. “I thought it was harmless.”

“Point taken.” You mutter. “Okay, fine. Veleis-sensei asked me to check up on Aria, right? I did that, except I found the door unlocked and the girl down on the ground suffering from a fever.”

“Did you call an ambulance?”

“Yeah. They took her away. Problem solved, I guess. I went home after that.”

"Wow, good job, man. "

"It's not that big of a deal; I only did what everyone else would do in that situation." You think for a moment. “Hey, if I knew Amrita, would I have been able to cure her?”

“No, haven’t you been listening in class?” Kanami speaks up. “Amrita only cures ailments present in magic. It can cure stuff like poison or petrification, but modern diseases are out of its league.”

“Huh, you learn something new every day…”

“Still, you have peculiar interests in friends, Takashi. First Osaragi, and now von Wittelsbach.”

“Hey, what are you implying, Kanami?”

“Nothing at all.” She responds, picking a fish-shaped nugget and ripping its head off with a single chomp. “I was just making an observation.”

You eye her warily, before returning to your beef on rice meal. For a brief few moments you immerse yourself in the chatter of the cafeteria, Celeste’s silly jokes and Kanami’s sarcastic quips.

“Hey Takashi, how’s drama club?”

You are caught off guard by Takauji’s question. “Uh…fine, I guess. I haven’t been there in a while.”

“Why not?”

You glance over at Celeste. “Been busy, I guess.”

“With what?” Kanami asks.

“Work.” Beating up Shadows in the Blackened Void grants you macca, so it’s sort of a truth.

“You know, you could always quit.” Takauji suggests.

“Say what?”

“It’s not like you’ve entered a blood contract or anything with the captain.” Takauji says. “If you’re busy, just tell them. They’ll whine and moan, but they can’t do shit to stop you.”

“Just don’t do it too often.” Kanami warns. “Otherwise, you’ll get a reputation for being a notorious slacker.”

“Who’s the drama club captain, anyway?”

“Kaz, the really nice guy.” You mutter. “Bowl cut, glasses, big smile all the time...heard of him?”

"Oh, him. Yeah, who hasn't?"

"You, apparently."

“He’s understanding, isn’t he? I don’t think he would have too much of a problem if you quit.”

Celeste puffs up her cheeks and frowns. “I don’t think you should do it, Takashi-kun. You’re the one who signed up for it, so it’s important that you see the commitment through to the end. Besides, don’t you enjoy drama club?”

“She’s got a point…” Kanami muses. “I haven’t talked to Kaz Inaba, but he sounds like the type of guy who would be legitimately heartbroken if one of his members walked out on him.”

“Don’t people do that all the time, though?”

You raise your hands in the air, as if they were a pair of air traffic control signs. “Okay, you guys all stop. I didn’t say anything about quitting club. Takauji was the one who brought it up.”

He makes the kind of gesture a child lacking an important piece of homework would give. “It’s a suggestion. You decide what to do with it, man.”

"I'll keep it in mind. Can we get back to eating, please? The sauce is getting cold."

"...your meal was cold from the start."

"That's not the point."

You are standing in the courtyard, pondering over your available options as students walk past you and clouds float by. What do to, oh what to do? Explore the Blackened Void? You’re stronger now, but you’re still not keen on entering a death world and you are not in the mood to deal with those asshole twins right now. Study in the school library? You think back to the pile of English homework posted online and promptly reconsider. Maybe you should talk to Yoshino. Yeah, that sounds like a good idea. The student council president did ask that of you, after all.

A hand rests on your shoulder and you turn around. Kaz Inaba is standing in front of you, his smile dazzling.

“Good day to you, Wakui!” He booms in that loud, exhilarated voice of his. “How are you feeling this fine afternoon?”

“Uh…”

“It’s certainly a fine day for a round of acting!” He grins. “What say you, good chap? Want to spend the afternoon at the club?”

You are now astounded by the sheer oddity of Kaz Inaba’s vocabulary. Guy sounds like he was transported from a hundred years in the past. Nevertheless you regain your thoughts and present your answer.

“I was just on my way there.” You reply. God, look at that face. See its sunny smile, those sparkling eyes, that pearly-white row of teeth and those rosy cheeks flushed with pure excitement. His charisma is bloody overwhelming. He’s the cleric with the cleansing ray of light magic, and you’re the vampire being banished to the corners of the abyss. In other words, you can’t exactly say no to him.

“Let’s go together.”

“Splendid!” He claps his hands together. His mouth is now curved into the shape of a banana. “Let us make no haste, my good friend!”

“Uh…yeah. Sorry for not showing up recently. I’ve been having a lot of stuff on my plate.”

“No, no, it’s all good. I’m just glad for you to show up!”

“Well…I’m looking forward to today, captain.”

“As am I!”

The two of you set off down the path towards the academy auditorium. It’s quiet. Kaz seems to be thinking about something, judging by the way he makes little hums and smiles. At once point, he catches eye of a noticeboard and giggles. A flame is ignited within his irises and he turns to you, his passion searing like a volcano spewing out chunks of hot magma.

“You seem enthusiastic.” You quip, resisting the urge to back away.

“Of course I am!” He grins. “There is no reason for me to be gloomy or sad, for the excitement of the theatre awaits!”

“Okay…”

“Tell me, Wakui.” He grins. “If you had to play any role, which one would you prefer?”

What a change of subject. “Why are you asking me this?” You ask.

“Oh, for no reason at all.” He smirks and laughs. “That was the dramatic version of being smug. For a more subdued version, keep your voice as level as possible and think about something dull. Don’t forget to turn to the audience on both occasions, though. Wink if you feel like it, it's always fun to do!”

Hmm, what is your answer?

“I wouldn’t mind being a supporting character.” You mumble.

“Oh? Not a hero? A lot of the other boys in the club wish to be primary protagonists.”

“I don’t think I’m charismatic enough for that kind of role.” You say. “Besides, aren’t supporting characters the dark horse type of guys? Everybody loves them because they get less screen time than the main protagonists.”

“Indeed, but there is a reason why the main characters are considered to be the focus of the show. In good ones, anyway.”

You shrug. “I wouldn’t mind being an antagonist, like a villain.”

“What kind of villain, may I ask?”

You think back to the many television shows and online videos you have watched in the eleven years you can remember. “The insufferable type. The kind of guys who cackles a lot and then sends the heroes to his death trap, but is instead actually an escape route. Either that, or the reasonable second-in-command who can’t do anything except watch the entire castle collapse around him.”

“Fascinating!” Kaz smiles and unlike a bored parent you believe that he means it. “Yes, villains are truly some of the most enjoyable roles to play. Be devious, chew that ham! Practice those speeches, cackle like a madman, laugh like a scheming vizier, feel as if you are on top of the world. Become fully immersed in the idea of evil! Scream and howl when your plans are foiled, vowing to return next time! The second-in-command is also a good one, too. Whenever your superior announces his next foolish plan, always make sure to give a weary sigh and a good shake of the head. That sort of action draws crowds, my friend.”

“Geez, you’re seriously enthusiastic about this, captain.” You exclaim. “I’m not even that good at acting.”

“Oh, I don’t know about that.” Kaz winks. “I used to think I was incapable at the age of five. But I persevered and here I am today!”

“You started from that early?”

“It was always my dream to entertain others. I could have gone down on many routes, such as writing or drawing. In the end, I decided that comedy was my passion and that translated to acting in elementary school.” He smiles. “Ah, I fondly remember playing the role of the lion in the Wizard of Oz. Those were some excellent times, for me and my fellow actors.”

You stare at him. He’s pretty open about his interests, now that you think about it. “Did you win any awards?”

“Why, yes! Most of them are at home, however. Perhaps I could bring them over to show, if you would like? We could even base a skit around them!”

“Uh…hold that thought. We're here.”

The entrance to the auditorium is looming ahead. Kaz nods at its presence. "So we are. Let us reserve that conversation for next time."

Kaz grins and pushes open the double doors, slamming them against the walls.

“Good afternoon, everybody!” He roars. “Are you all doing well? It’s time for drama club to begin!”

“You look like a wedding crasher, captain.” A girl remarks.

“Do I?” Kaz asks, contemplating. “Do excuse me for a moment.”

He then retreats behind the doors and closes them shut. You are left on the other side, with half the club’s eyes locked upon you. You are starting to feel like a lemon. The door then burst open and Kaz rushes in, with a panicked expression and wearing a suit. If this wasn’t a performance, you’d be inclined to believe that he’s moments away from bursting into real, hatred-filled tears.

“Objection!” he shouts. “Irinora Dantalian Lucifuge can’t marry her own peerage! It’s against the rules of our fair Underworld!”

A pause. Kaz looks around the room and grins again. “How was it, everybody?”

The auditorium explodes into chuckles.

“Holy shit, he actually did it.”

“Nine of ten, not bad captain.”

“We should hook you up to a dating site.”

“Where did you even get that suit…” You mutter.

He laughs and waves it off. “Details, details. Now then everyone, gather in a circle! It’s time to begin!”

You then spend the rest of the afternoon practicing lines and performing miniature skits. There's not much to say, excluding you being confused about the subject material. What are these 'Nine Zones' and what do they have to do with unspeakable creatures? Whatever. It’s fun and you honestly missed it.

>You feel as if your relationship with Kaz has grown deeper…

“See you, captain.”

“Until next time, Wakui!”

[6:00 pm, 2-Jun-2129 (THURSDAY)]

You take the train back home, alone. It’s another cold night. Shizuka would probably be cooking a big bowl of soup about now. You hope it’s the one with lamb and tomatoes. It never fails to warm your heart.

You then remember that Shizuka isn’t at home anymore. It makes you a little sad. Part of it is knowing that you will have to cook for yourself and the last time you tried you almost set the kitchen on fire. Thank god for the existence of microwaves.

“Still, at least I have the whole house to myself…”

That doesn’t mean you can do whatever you please. You still have to maintain it, clean it and lock the door to prevent robbers from breaking in at the dead of night and stealing all of the silverware.

“I can go out and eat whatever I want…”

That’s true, you think to yourself, but money is limited and all the restaurants in your apartment block range from average to fast-food quality. The fridge is full, anyway.

“Maybe I should buy that chocolate Celeste recommended…”

You remember lying in bed with a painful stomach and reconsider for the second time that day. Have you learned nothing? Vomiting is not a pleasurable experience, especially when the acid burns the back of your throat.

“It’s quiet, so I guess I’ll sleep better…”
>>
>>46890934
Do you actually expect us to get more than 1 or (unlikely) 2 rank 10 social links? It took nearly 40 threads to get Takashi's best friend to rank 4.

Then again, Shizuka never made a ruckus in the first place. She was always careful not to disturb you. You slept terribly when you first got out of the accident and she didn’t need to make it worse. It sort of became a habit over time. Not that it’s a bad thing.

“Okay, what can I do?”

Well…

>Now that Shizuka is away, you can explore the Blackened Void at night!

>>Takashi: Ask your friends to come over and study.

Thanks to your Assertive CHARISMA, you can do this now! To think that you would be able to socialize to your friends with this extent, one of which is a girl your age...your parents would be so proud. Well, one of them at least. You whip out your phone, open up the AETHER message client and begin tapping away.

<THE_FIRST> Hey guys
<THE_FIRST> Nee-san went away to Tokyo
<THE_FIRST> Which means my house is empty
<THE_FIRST> Do you guys want to come over and study
<THE_FIRST> I can buy Chinese takeout
<chocolat_orange> takashi-kun, sorry i can’t. i’m a little busy tonight
<THE_FIRST> With what
<chocolat_orange> work at the maid café remember? i’ve got the night shift today. didn’t i tell you this before?
<THE_FIRST> Oh
<THE_FIRST> Yeah I forgot
<chocolat_orange> again sorry :(
<chocolat_orange> i’m literally eating my dinner right now. then i have to take a shower and catch a train.
<chocolat_orange> maybe tomorrow?
<THE_FIRST> I’ll think about it
<THE_FIRST> Wait
<chocolat_orange> ???
<THE_FIRST> I’ve got an idea
<chocolat_orange> i don’t get it but now i’m concerned
<THE_FIRST> Do they serve dinner at the Lovely Eight
<chocolat_orange> they do, why?
<chocolat_orange> it’s mostly stuff like croissants and omelettes, nothing too heavy like a steak. which is a bit of a disappointment imo.
<THE_FIRST> You really love your steaks don’t you?
<chocolat_orange> only if they’re well done and covered in barbecue sauce :D
<chocolat_orange> anyway what’s this about the food at the café?
<THE_FIRST> The thing is Celeste
<THE_FIRST> I fucking love foreign breads
<THE_FIRST> I’m coming over
<chocolat_orange> what???
<THE_FIRST> You heard me
<THE_FIRST> Also Akikazu and Fumika if they’re available
<chocolat_orange> oh noooo…

And now I have to go and eat. See you guys in thirty minutes...

So uh I guess SIR YELLINGBIRD'S FACT OF THE DAY while we're waiting I don't know I didn't prepare anything this won't be very helpful.

>Um, Kaede Kurusu only formed four bonds in her first two weeks with the Wild Card.
>Brian flew off the handle and accidentally exterminated the natives in Pyre Ruin Valley. God fucking damn it, Brian.
>Lucianne has a son. That's neat, I guess.
>Daisuke likes green vegetables. You wouldn't think it, huh?
>Shizue's older sister runs the Hebi-ko Hot Spring Facility, and she has a coworker who may be a child molester. Wow, she should call the cops. If she has any concrete evidence, I mean.
>The twins call Philemon and Nyarlahotep "Butterfly Man" and "Mr. Black Alien Faces". 2/10, low effort nicknames.

>“Nii-san and I were surprised.” The girl follows up. “You’ve certainly been more prolific than your predecessors. Even the Last Word had only created four bonds during the first fortnight. So in that regard, you have surpassed them. Of course, you shouldn’t become too cocky, Weakest One. We bestowed that title upon you for a reason!”

“So Akikazu, would you like to give an explanation to the class…?”

He raises a fist, heavy, meaty and thick. “One word.” He snarls, a streetlight shining down upon him, giving the impression of an enraged mass murderer holding a bloodstained axe. “One more goddamn word and I’m going to punch you into the sun.”

“You’re not strong enough.” You point out.

He narrows his eyes. “Fucking watch me. No-one will hear you scream. Everyone will celebrate as the flesh burns off your fucking skin.”

You raise your hands in a gesture of surrender, yet you can’t stop giggling at how hilarious everything is. Akikazu gives you one final scowl befitting of a mercenary leader and jerks his thumb at the door. “Let’s get this over with.”

“You are going to enjoy this and you know it.”

This time, he raises both fists. You back away.

The air is chilly. The neon signs outside are vibrant and flashing. You take hold of the doorknob and push it open. The interior of the café is warm and sweet. Fragrances from cooked breads and desserts waft through the air. You hear the cheerful voices of the hired maids mixed in awkward stutters of the patrons. It instantly makes you feel at home. Lucianne, the owner, strides over to you and gives you a short bow.

“Welcome back, Master.” She says in a soft, clipped voice. Then she looks you over again and nods. “Ah, you’re Celeste’s friend. Have you come to see her?”

“Not really, just looking for a bite to eat.”

“I see. There are no rules prohibiting customers from seeing one of our maids as friends. Please, take a seat. I’ll have her serve you.”

She gestures towards a round table in the middle, covered by a white cloth with flower patterns on the edges. You gladly sit down. Akikazu grumbles the entire way, but relents. The holographic menu puts itself on display. You browse through it. Your friend gives it the once over, growls and rests his elbows on the table.

“Good evening, masters!” Celeste bounds over, holding a clipboard while giving the two of you a bright smile. Her black and white dress is pristine like before. You can’t help but blush a little at the sight. “What can I get for you today…eh? Takashi-kun, you brought Akikazu along?”

“Hi, Celeste.”

“I’m only here because my mom pushed me out the door.” Akikazu retorts. “Christ, sometimes I have no idea what goes through that head of hers…”

Celeste stares at him. “Mm-hmmm…that’s interesting. What are your orders, boys? Don’t leave me hanging all night.”

“Give me three croissants and a cherry cola.”

“The omelet rice.” Akikazu says. “Make it quick, damn it.”

Celeste scribbles the orders down, then looks at you. “Takashi-kun, is Akikazu aware of the rules? Should I explain them to him?”

“He read the sign outside. Also, I think he might explode if you do that, so no.”

“Seems like that’s happening right now.” Celeste replies eyeing Akikazu’s bulging crimson forehead vein. “Okay, orders received. Your food will be ready in a couple of minutes.”

“Are you going to do that—”

“No, Takashi-kun, I’m not. That's not my job. Farewell, Master~!”

She walks off to serve another table. Her dress shakes as she walks. You take note of the white frills lining the inside, her polished black shoes and the lack of stockings on her smooth, fair-skinned legs. It’s entirely possible that you aren’t supposed to be having these thoughts, thus leading to the conclusion that you may have a problem. You don’t care.

At the front of the entrance, a bell rings, signaling the arrival of a new customer. Lucianne is the first to greet, giving the man a bow and the customary welcome. A short greeting is exchanged and a table is pointed at.

“Master, would you like me to tell you about our newest batch of ice-creams?”

“Oh, no that’s fine, girls. I’m just here for a slice of cake, anyway.”

His voice is youthful and a little loud. It’s also familiar. You sneak a glance. Your eyes widen. That spiky hair, that pointed nose and that somewhat pale skin! It’s…someone you almost forget but remember just in time. It’s that chef from the restaurant you ate with Takauji in. He's Chinese and his name starts with 'M'. That's all you know about him, really. Having said that, what the hell is he doing here?

We're going to give Celeste advice on making her uniform better and bust out our hidden sewing talent right?

Nah.. got a feeling he may be abomination number two. Read the last few BATTLE TIMES before Chikashi entered the void and think about who would have the easiest access to him to do that shit. And if he's a persona user..

Remember how Takashi said 'I've got Dia' at the thought of a broken nose? Apply that mentality with broken bones.
>>
>>46894051
Please, Akikazu's the one with the hidden sewing talent. It's practically obligated for modern tsunderes.
>>
>>46894068
Just because he's Chikashi's roommate doesn't mean he's an abomination too.
>>
>>46894083
No, but abominations and players share a link with us. Players so far seem to share a positive link/social link. Abominations are likely the opposite. Lots of negative emotions that are amplified and brought out. Chikashi was obvious, but I've got a bad vibe with this guy.
>>
>>46894069
So what's our hidden domestic talent? Sure as hell isnt cooking
>>
>>46894149
Is it the same sort of bad vibe you had about Fumikas companion when the thread decided to fight him
>>
>>46894182
"fight" ehehehehe. It was a slaughter.
>>
>>46894153
Snark obviously.
>>
>>46894182
Pretty much. Tweedle dumbass gave us a hint when we spared Chikashi. Something that would force our hand to kill. If he did beat the shit out of chikashi, set him on fire and break his bones over that soda can then he would definitely qualify. Either way this guy is a complete unknown and likely very dangerous.
>>
>>46894149
Yeah except we were the ones who did all the "negative emotion" shit. The thing telling him he was useless was functionally us. Hell, it was probably possible to have him not turn; he might have been a social link and now that we beefed that up this guy is coming to take his place
>>
>>46894226
what are you even talking about
>>
>>46894271
before Chickashi went abomination we got his "viewpoint"

one of them had him being beaten and hurt really badly by someone talking to him.
This was strange because most of the others didn't have people talking. It sounded like someone who knew Chikashi.
The little battle logs.
>>
>>46894238
Not really. The worst we did was act guarded and tell him off/to get good when he started blaming us. The lack of persona? Not us. Him being jealous of our persona? Based on us, but we did not rub it in his face. And I was one of the people who tried for the positive route and even then he was quite negative. He was never going to befriend us in his state because he was too damn jealous of us. Even when we helped him he was aggressive towards us.

Chikashi was "the first of many".

>>Takashi: Avoid.

Your gambit pays off. It is a resounding success.

You carry on as if nothing had happened. You get the feeling that if you made eye contact with the guy, a lot of awkward questions would be asked in the near future. Or maybe he would take the hint and mind his own business. It’s not worth the confrontation. You have a meal coming up, after all.

“Enjoy your meal, Masters!” Celeste brings over two steaming plates. You dig in immediately. Everything about the croissants, from the crunchy crust to the oozing cheesy filling inside of it is simply heavenly. You have never been so grateful for France’s existence, despite not actually having been there once in your entire life.

“This is great!” You exclaim. “Give the chef my thanks.”

“Okay, Master!” Celeste grins. “But what about Akikazu?”

You gaze over to the opposite side of the table. Akikazu has attacked his meal in the same way a miner would attack a patch of earth. Rice all over the place, red sauce spilling across the plate like bloodstains, peas and corn globules mashed together with carbohydrates to form delicious mixtures that are quickly inserted into his mouth. He eats and eats and devours his meal within minutes. For comparison, there’s still a full croissant left on your plate. He wipes his mouth with a tissue and glares at you.

“So, how was it?” You ask.

“It was okay.” He grunts, rolling his eyes.

You look back up at Celeste. “He loves it.”

She giggles and breaks out into a big smile. “Wonderful!”

<THE_FIRST> I told you
<THE_FIRST> I told you so
<THE_FIRST> It kept happening
<THE_FIRST> And you were powerless to stop it
<THE_FIRST> I told you bro
<THE_FIRST> I told you
<Akagi21> i am going to block you
<THE_FIRST> I don’t think that’s an option

<chocolat_orange> hey, takashi-kun, can i ask you something?
<THE_FIRST> Aren’t you supposed to be at work right now
<chocolat_orange> i’m on the toilet. this is going to be a short conversation anyway
<THE_FIRST> Okay shoot then
<chocolat_orange> have you been fighting in the battlegrounds lately?
<THE_FIRST> No not really
<chocolat_orange> wow, really? i thought you would’ve enjoyed dueling others.
<THE_FIRST> Look I’ve been a busy man
<THE_FIRST> Shit happened alright
<THE_FIRST> Drama club
<THE_FIRST> Rushing Aria to the hospital
<THE_FIRST> Dealing with Takauji’s shitty relationship troubles
<chocolat_orange> ???
<chocolat_orange> takauji has relationship problems?
<THE_FIRST> Never mind that
<THE_FIRST> I just haven’t had the time
<THE_FIRST> I get the impression that you’ve been fighting a lot
<chocolat_orange> yep!
<chocolat_orange> 6 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss here!
<chocolat_orange> it’s great fun and i get to practice a bunch of sweet new moves.
<chocolat_orange> how do you think i learned maragion?
<THE_FIRST> From fighting the black goop monster that nearly chewed Fumika’s pet lizard in half?
<chocolat_orange> yes but i refined the skill in a duel.
<chocolat_orange> and i won.
<chocolat_orange> basically what i’m saying is that you should totally butt heads when you get the chance. it’s what us persona-users are about, you know!
<chocolat_orange> i don’t blame you for not knowing, you’ve only had your persona for a few months.
<THE_FIRST> I keep forgetting that
<THE_FIRST> It’s hard to imagine life without Ippon-Datara
>>
>>46894642
It's not our fault that time is a rare commodity for us.
>>
>>46894642

<THE_FIRST> If I lost him I don’t know how I’d cope
<chocolat_orange> i know right???
<chocolat_orange> life without sati was so boring. that feeling of power flowing through your limbs, forming magic spells and cool skills…i don’t think i’ll ever get tired of it.
<THE_FIRST> So what happens when I duel more your majesty
<THE_FIRST> Do I get a reward
<chocolat_orange> well, if you win enough duels…
<chocolat_orange> i’ll fight with you in a doubles match :)
<chocolat_orange> so get right to it. you beat me before and you might be the fool.
<chocolat_orange> but if you loosen you’ll grip…
<chocolat_orange> i might just surpass you, takashi-kun!
<chocolat_orange> :) :) :) :)
>>
Now it's clear that we can stop increasing social links for a while and focus on gitting gud
>>
>>46894677
><chocolat_orange> i’ll fight with you in a doubles match :)
That sounds fun as fuck.
>>
>>46894692
Don't it though
>>
One thing I really appreciate about this quest is that since Takashi isn't a near-silent stand-in character like actual Persona MCs, he can have his own personality that isn't the typical silent leader type. It's cool to see the MC develop as a character, even if he does, of course, have a few /tg/ MC traits.
>>
>>46894677
Please don't throw anything at us let us duel in peace Thorn.

>inb4 we face one of the anti-Akikazu cronies on the grounds.
>inb4 light spam
>inb4 much higher rank than us.
>>
>>46894642
Yes. Also we should be studying as well! Study Takashi! This is the reason for the study group! Also, we need to get Celeste her companion as well.
>>
>>46894715
I found myself appreciating that in the other SMT quests as well, both for the reason you mentioned and for the fact we could talk to characters whenever we wanted, in whatever way we wanted as opposed to just standing there while your friends fall further into extremist bullshit that ends up with you having to kill them like in the games.
>>
>>46894735
"Ah ah ah, your'e still the weakest one Takashi, and we can't have you relaxing can we? After all, where's the fun in that."
>>
>>46894767
There is nothing wrong with extremism as long as it's law.
>>
>>46894776
Seeing how forced Cass's actions were in Re:London, I disagree

In the heat and dust of Pyre Ruin Valley, a knight surveys the area in front of him. He spots bloodstains on the path and follows it. The trail leads him towards the bottom of a hollow tree, the dirt below hard as rock and the bark dried to a crisp. A mournful sigh escapes from his throat.

“Another body…”

Of course it’s turned out like this. What else could he have been expecting? This is standard routine, par for the course. What else could happen in this land of barren soil and eternal sunset?

“Those children…”

Laurence is reminded of something. His voice is rusty, hollow and harsh. His vision wavers. A feeble gale snaps off a dead branch. Inside, he frowns.

“I wonder what they are doing…”

He looks around the landscape. White-washed walls, hard rock and a red sky. It's all blurring together. So, in the end, were they even here? Shaking his head to clear his thoughts, Laurence picks up the corpse and sets off down the dusty trail.
>>
>>46894788
Cass was actually the one I was thinking of.

In London we convinced her to go Neutral just by talking to her and sticking by her.

And the in New Cycle, even with her forced regression back to Law we still steered her to a less extremist viewpoint by not isolating her and continuing to talk. Had we not done that, we probably would have killed each other.
>>
>>46894823
Uh oh


>>46894824
Yeah, still a pain though.
>>
>>46894823
What's happening?
>>
I am sorry for the filler nature of this thread. I swear to god, things will actually start happening next time. If it's any consolation, I'll be answering questions thirty minutes after this post goes out.

Next thread is on next Monday, on the 2nd of June at 10:30 pm UTC. Hope to see you all there!
>>
>>46894873
Foreshadowing that's what.
>>
>>46894882
Thanks for running TT. Have a good night! Slightly saddened by not getting the entire crew together for a night together. Any chance for something like that in the near(for takashi) future?
>>
>>46894882
Give us a quick update of the AETHER missions currently available and how much time to complete them.
>>
>>46894882
Good night. I was hoping for a int boost but the humor was good as well. Also we have so much stuff on our damn plate!
>>
>>46894859
I fucking told you.
>>
>>46894882
2nd of June? Do we have to wait an entire month or do you mean the 2nd of may?
>>
>>46894882
Any change on Chikashi's status? Since we're likely going to the battlegrounds next thread can you tell us what that will entail? Why'd Fumika have us on ignore? Would Celeste be cool with coming over to study and Taste test our cooking tomorrow? How close are we to leveling her SL? How much time til we finals? Shouldn't we have gotten stat ups for eating cafe food?
>>
>>46894954
>Shouldn't we have gotten stat ups for eating cafe food?
>>46894882
That is important
>>
>>46894935
Yeah it's supposed to be May. I got the months mixed up.

>>46894910
Basically the mission to find Celeste's Companion, which expires on Jun 16th. You also have generic explore the sectors missions along with a scrambled notification. I'll add a separate section for this in the stats page.

>>46894954
-I can't tell you that.
-You'll know when you get there; it's similar to the END OF PART ONE.
-Fumika hates socializing.
-She said yes, you'd have to ask her about the cooking stuff directly.
-Win those duels and find out.
-I'll address the cafe food next thread.

>>46894906
Level up those Social Links.

>>46894873
Plot.
>>
>>46895032
>-Win those duels and find out.
Oh so Rank UP for companions might involve some mini-quests?
>>
>>46895032
But being social is so hard...
>>
>>46895032
How far behind are we combat wise? Will the chance to either sell, give away or get one of the girls to wear the HV armor come up? The Anti-Akikazu squad going to gun for us in the battlegrounds?
>>
>>46895085
Hc armor* (high cut)
>>
>>46895032
Any ideas on what the price range would be for those combat enhancements from the "totally legal" armament shop? I can't get the image out of my head of Takashi doing the Deus Ex "I didn't ask for this" pose. I know player wise we'll probably avoid them.
>>
>>46895058
Yeah.

>>46895060
The doctor called. His prescription is a healthy dose of git gud.

>>46895085
-You're fine for now, but Celeste is the one with a multi-hit tier 2 fire spell. Don't let your guard down.
-Maybe.
-Read and find out.

>>46895181
They're out of your league for the moment. Also, find a way to prevent Takashi's family from finding out.
>>
>>46895442
One last thing, you mentioned that you're not in bongastan, so where are you located?
>>
>>46895467
In Kaede Kurusu's loving embrace. She is truly best girl.
