Nine PM. Around then. And I'll do you one better...
[She settled neatly upon his lap.]
Tieflings have fantastic darkvision. I'll look for you in the crowd right before my little show begins. And if you want an encore... well.

OK, 20 MIN
[ And 20 min later she's keying in the passcode and coming in the front door. INHALES. ]
YOSUKE!!!!!

You don't need to shout!! Geez, want the whole floor to here you?

Sorry. I forget how loud I can get, sometimes.
[ Look, she brought matcha-strawberry ice cream. ]

[ GASP. Matcha-strawberry. You are forgiven, Miss Tofu Idol. ]
Clearly, c'mon, let's go into the kitchen. I'll get the spoons. And a couple sodas, this needs lots of sugar.
[ He went the fridge to pull out said colas and got some spoons to take to the table, handing one of each to her. At least because it was Iris time he didn't need to worry about any rogue pheromones or his sensitive nose. ]
Soooooo. Who didja kiss?

You bet it does!
[ There's a blush on her cheeks as she follows him to the kitchen, but it's both triumphant as well as embarrassed. ]
Weeeeeellllllll it wasn't just kissing...
[ Peels the lid off the tub and plunges her spoon in. ]

Seriously?! Do I know this girl?
[ His turn to go into the ice cream now. He doesn't want to really want to know details because that's for behind closed doors but come on! He needs some deets. ]
Clearly you liked it since you're outright telling people you're into both.

[ She smiles all coy ]
I'd be surprised if you haven't seen her flirting with me.
[ Eats spoonful. ]
Buuuuuuut, if you want to hear more you gotta tell me about this boy thing with you first. Yeah, I saw your post.

[ squint. major squint. ]
Pfft, yeah I know you did, why is everyone calling it cute?! I mean, the duck I can understand but... [ he shakes his head with and gets another spoonful. ] Whatever. Anyway, uh... so, I kinda came out to Kanji and Souji last month?
But it took awhile to even realize it and I'm still like... figuring it out so that's why I didn't tell everyone. [ How did he even start talking about when he figured it out? He poked the ice cream a little with the spoon, thoughtful. ] I just... I was in denial for awhile, I guess.

Because you're a romantic, and that's cute.
[ She puts her cheek on her hand. ]
Yeah, I mean, clearly it's a denial club. What made you start realizing the denial, though? Or who?

Ren, I guess? But I think I was aware of it in the back of my mind for awhile before that. I was noticing way more good looking guys than I had any right to, so off into denial I went.
[ He mimicked her, placing his chin in his palm. ]
Then there was a weird side effect to this wine I was forced to drink back in July. You weren't there for it and it was actually kinda scary but like... instead of having my usual fox stuff during the Triple Moon phase, I had really weird glowing skin and yellow eyes and nine tails like a kitsune. I also just sorta stopped being all anxious and worried about what other people thing, like it gave me some weird confidence boost.
Which apparently led to me making out with Ren.

Woah, that's wild. [ She goes giggle a little bit, though. ] I'm sorry it was scary but it also sounds pretty cool? I wish I could have seen you like that, without a worry.
[ She taps a finger on her cheek. ]
Ren Amamiya huh? Yeah, that's a good choice.
[ She taps a finger on her cheek. ]
Ren Amamiya huh? Yeah, that's a good choice.
Yeah, it was. Nothing like being kidnapped and made to drink the kool-aid for a sacrifice to realize we are really not in Kansas anymore. [ Itβs said wryly but it really had been scary. He didnβt quite get nightmares from it but he had definitely been more wary of the Prismals after that. ] But I guess some good came from the bad. So, I donβt want to think too much on it.
Heh, Kanji said the same thing. Heβs a good guy.
Heh, Kanji said the same thing. Heβs a good guy.
[ He's joking, but she still gets the feeling he was upset by the whole thing. Understandably so, if it was forced on him. Her face grows more serious. ]
I have that impression too. He's a flirt, but he means well.
[ Protags, hey? ]
I have that impression too. He's a flirt, but he means well.
[ Protags, hey? ]
Yeah. He does. So, yeah, thats my story and I technically only told Souji, Kanji, and Ren. Now you, although anyone who reads that post will too but [ shrug and then he pointed at her with his spoon, mouth widening to a grin. ] now itβs your turn, missy.
Thanks for telling me.
[ She beams, smiling around a mouthful of ice cream. ]
Okay, okay. Well, Minako-senpai just... started getting really flirty with me, and I guess I reacted a lot and she liked that... It was embarrassing! I've never had a girl treat me like that before! And I liked it...
And then we ran into each other during Cordis, and...
[ You can guess. ]

So basically she pulled a Ren on you.
[ he couldnβt help but laugh at that thought. was it a leader thing? a wildcard thing? ]
Thatβs all he ever did since I got here. Tease and flirt and then... yeah.
[ granted, sex happened after heβd already come out, but still. ]

Maybe it's a leader thing.
[ Their own Souji was a bit more subdued back home... but now that they're all here? He's as bad as either of the other two. ]
Yeah. I know how you feel. [ Wildcards, man. ]

So, what are ya gonna do now? Iβm still trying to figure out how to work with this new... thing, I guess? But like, Iβd always liked girls primarily so I think thatβs still my preference over all. Just, yβknow [ he shrugged and waved his spoon a little in some vague gesture of confusion, sticking it back into the ice cream shortly after for a bite. ] got more options now.
--!!!
[ he couldn't help the blush deepening down to his neck and up to his ears, even worse at the suggestion. he was going to die of embarrassment, wasn't he? girls were going to be the death of him, that much he figured. Madhuri, Rise... sigh. ]
W-Well, why don't we uh, we see what happens when I get there, yeah?
[ what was he getting himself into? ]

[ what was he getting himself into? ]
Go with the flow, I guess? I'm still sorta learning how to deal with it, too. I look at girls and think to myself "ok is she cute or is she cute" you know? I'm starting to notice more when girls are flirting with me, too... Minako-senpai started a trend or something.
[ Send help. ]
[ Send help. ]
I know! There have been a couple times where Iβm like βthat guy has no right being that pretty?β and then Iβm like, waitaminute... is this like, noticing a guy is pretty or like, Iβm attracted to him heβs pretty?
And have you seen Ren without his glasses? He falls in that first category.

[ He hadn't intended on going to the Spring. He intended to go home once paying his respects at the Grounds. It had been for Saki, because while it wasn't April, he was also on another Planet and he wanted to at least do it while he could in a place like this. He didn't know where else he would be able to go, Saki's grave wasn't here after all.
But then, Yosuke heard the melody. It didn't precisely sound like her, he had no idea if she could even sing if he were honest. But he followed it anyway until he found himself at the Spring. It was beautiful, enchanting even. The merpeople, not the first time he saw one now although they looked quite different than Fish, were really pretty. So much so that he knelt down over a rock to get a closer look. Of course, it was too good to be true and with a sharp cry and a splash, he was pulled under.
Yosuke attempted to swim up and out of the water, but then he saw her. He saw Saki. He broke the surface with a gasp for air but still, within the water was her image and he couldn't help but reach for her. But she was out of his grasp and without realizing it, he strayed away from the edge trying to catch her. Yosuke knew she was dead, but that didn't explain how he saw her here. And some people arrived here when they died, right? What if she was really here and was just messing with him?
He was getting so tired... ]

[Ren own reason to go and visit the grounds had been vastly different. Both to remember his own deceased grandparents, but also to pay homage to all of those who had been victim to Shido's path of destruction. Preferring to do this by himself, Ren hadn't planned to pass by the springs, but the talks about mermaids had gotten him curious.
As luck would have it, he had heard something, or someone make a noise. For most people, this would be a good time to leave and never come back, but for Ren, it was the opposite, curiosity got the best of him and he watched someone rise to the surface only to go right back into deeper parts of the water.
It didn't take him too long to realize it was Yosuke. When, How and Whys could come later, as he didn't even bother to check around him before his Phantom Thief outfit materialized around him, the mask disappearing just as quickly as it had appeared with a burst of bluish light. Joker wasn't going to take any chances as to what might be down there. This world had left him expecting a tentacle monster grabbing him, after all.]
SATANAEL!
[The Persona would fly over the lake, extended its clawed hand into the water to attempt and fish out the other Persona user.]
