[OOC] The True Self - Persona

[Sho Minazuki]

Maybe you should think about why your character is obsessed with Akemi in the first place.

Maybe the obsession came from a desire to replace her dead sister, and is as twisted as it is due to a fear of losing someone dear again.

Your shadow would probably examine the part where your character is afraid to move on or leave Akemi for just a little bit in fear of losing the one who filled the large void in her heart that Keiko's death had opened up.

[Savo]

There's also Aquas character, however Aqua hasn't been on for a while. Are they busy or something, because they got a shadow to confront.

Makes me wonder what they got planned up.

[Sho Minazuki]

Kato should deal with his pursuit for his sister and the fact that she's left. Perhaps a fear that she probably left because she got sick of helping him all the time, thus leading to a self-hatred of being too weak or something. Shadows should address the most trying issues within a character. Need to examine every psychological effect of every event in their lives.

These are my observations.

[RolePlayerRoxas]

Midori and Akemi are going to have the strangest conversation on Monday.

"AKEMI-SEMPAI I FOUGHT MYSELF AND ACCEPTED THE TRUTH AND BEAUTY OF DESTINY AND PERSONA"

"...Sounds to me like you've been neglecting homework again."

[Savo]

If Aqua takes too long, I'll just move the story on after Midori and Kami obtain their personas.

[Sen]

Akemi's gonna be livid when she finds out how much study time this Mirror World is going to take up.

[Zane620]

ohhh immensely.

I... suppose to some extent that is the case and all, but, um... hmm. I'm trying to find a medium where I have something to write but it doesn't end with Midori trying to kill her shadow and an actual fight breaking out, um.

[Zane620]

Well I think most know Midori is obsessed with Akemi, including Akemi XD

[RolePlayerRoxas]

The secret comes from the amount of corpses in the basement, of course,

[Zane620]

That and Midori drew Akemi a picture, of herself and Akemi XD

[SwordfishKnight]

I believe the Social Link is wrapping up quite nicely.

[Sen]

The Rank 10 item you get from the Lovers SLink is a can of Qualorie Magic.

That's problematic, because I thought my observation was an incredibly good one. I mean, you can still do it and not end up fighting your own shadow, it just might take longer.

Just remember a Shadow is only waiting for you to say that it's not you, so the acceptance can either take a long time, or you reject it outright.

[VitaVitaAR]

Hmm, that's true... um... hm.

This needs to happen, why doesn't everyone say that?

In that case, Ayano's is going to be a cereal box of Captain Crunch.
"I may be a recluse and blind to society, but even I know why kids love the taste of cinnamon toast crunch.
That's why I want YOU to have it, don't worry, it's still fresh."

[Cuco]

I'm just going to throw this out there in the interests of getting us moving on this front;

Perhaps, and I'll admit this could be a BIG perhaps all things considered, the shadow addresses the idea that it's largely due to Akemi showing up at a vulnerable point in Midori's life that she ended up in love with her. The implication here being that Midori's love could be less than genuine. Now, big if, but maybe Midori could acknowledge how it began, but assert that she does in fact genuinely love Akemi for the fact she was there for her if nothing else.

As I said, I'm not so sure about this, because it does entail Midori being semi rational about this, and we know that's something of a stretch. But perhaps this could be the one thing she is in fact prepared to acknowledge even if the thought doesn't entirely appeal to her.

[Sho Minazuki]

Haru pls.

Your Persona. Did you check yet?

EDIT: Oh you did, I never got a response so I thought you didn't get it.

[SwordfishKnight]

Now i'm wondering what Noboru's max SLink would be.
