I might not be able to roleplay anymore... Father is threatning to disown me, going to attempt suicide. Im sorry everyone...

@Happy Go Lucky

I… don’t really know what to say. It’s horrible to a fellow RPer going through shit, but all I can do is offer condolences. I… I also believe that is not the answer. However, if you really do leave this RP permanently, you and Johnathan will be sincerely missed.

Wonder Mall – Food Court

“Nah, I’m fine. Not a single sneeze since then,” Dai answered when Kazuo asked if anyone had any side effects after the whole shebang yesterday. He tossed another takoyaki – the one that Kazuo somehow managed to convince him to split the cost - into his mouth. His eyes tear up a bit as he bore the searing pain of fresh volcanically hot perfection. Crispy on the outside yet hot and creamy on the inside – he regretted nothing. Cold takoyaki is no good; in his personal beliefs, they were meant to be eaten fresh off the griddle. They tasted even better with… er… friends?

Dai paused mid-chew, his eyes darted over to his fellow classmates. For a minute, he looked skeptical before that look was quickly replaced by one of curiosity.

After what seemed to be a comedy routine between two officers, Dai tilted his head and raised an eyebrow. “What was that all about? Kids on skateboards? A beaten up guy?” That last part reminded him of something… A guy that got beaten up… For some reason, his gaze drifted over to Shinku and he blinked several times. Wow, she looked different with her hair down since most of the time he only saw it as a ponytail. No, wait. Focus! Potential juvenile delinquents on wheels are juicy gossip. He better warn a few of his fellow rumormongers so they wouldn’t find themselves in a hit-and-run situation in the middle of the mall.

As Dai flipped opened his phone, he raised an eyebrow as the clock flashed across the screen. “Woah, time flew right on by,” Dai exclaimed; one quick look out around, and he noticed how much the crowd had slowly thinned. Sure, it was still crowded, but it was a far away cry from the hustle and bustle a few hours ago. Sneaking in one last takoyaki into his mouth, he stood from his seat. “Sorry, guys, but I got to go. Believe it or not, we got curfew at the dorms. If you guys ever want to do this again or got anything to share, call me. My number is…”

Dai told the group his number, emphasizing on the fact that they’re always free to hit him up. Whether they actually put it on their phones and take him on his offer was up to them. He left and returned to his dorm room for a rest well earned.

“Stop.” A firm steady voice called out after Lila. Despite her apology, Aloe stared at the spider woman with a cold gaze; the gun was now aimed at her chest. His eyes spoke with clear intent and distrust. Just seconds ago, she aimed to kill as he saw his own troubled expression reflected against her irises when she drew too close. And not long before that did she try to get that strange creature of bones when it had fallen.

While the giant statue still posed as a threat, it is ninety-eight percent pure stone. It would be a waste of bullets. He would have to find an alternative solution. More concerning though was Lila. She is still able to move and able to talk instead of growling. Was she an enemy or an ally? Will she revert back into something murderous? When will she? As much as a threat she still posed, Kettle chose her for a reason. She could still be useful for something, but is it worth the risk?

Honestly, Aloe had no idea what just happened. He had just wandered onto the scene and saw a disaster. Why was Lila rampaging? What is that statue? It was luck that Kettle’s feathered beast somehow managed to keep the murderous forces at bay. But long will that luck last? Although the red in her eyes may be gone, Aloe didn’t live this long on just hope and optimism.

A small click could be heard as the cock of the gun was raised. “Care to explain yourself?”

The conversation proceeded well enough once Bride finished his glimpse into the past. After forcing Gruffydd to volunteer as a tour guide with them, regardless of any plans the foreign student had made, Dai proceeded to drag his classmates over to the Wonder Mall. They were quickly greeted by the mall’s most popular mascot, Jack Frost, as up-beat techno music blasted through the speakers. They visited a large variety of shops and everything that the mall has to offer. Dai tossed in a few commentary and gossips about the more popular stores - Café Fortuna has the best coffee, Tee Party's owner was once rumoured to be a professional cosplayer, a book store called Rabbit Hole sold mysterious cards for some reason, etc.

As the shopping area swelled with people of all shapes and sizes, it wasn’t farfetched to say that the Wonder Mall was the most popular hang-out spots for families, the elderly, and high school students. Heck, even a few familiar faces appeared on their radar.

Johnathan was kicking back over in Café Fortuna with a good cup of coffee in one hand and a thick book in the other. Dai was tempted to rush over there, but promptly dragged away before he could get the chance. Ito was spotted at the Tee-Party, being bullied into some job by the ever so pushy owner, Hikari. The sightings just kept going as the pattern was followed by Shinku wandering somewhere in the distance. Geez, if he knew everyone was going to be here, he would've invited everyone.

It wasn’t until he spotted a certain face did Dai came to a full stop. His eyes slowly drifted over the crowds, glancing at each face. "Saito?" He asked, the weight of the brown backpack reminding him of his mission. The familiar haggard face made his call out even louder. “Saito!"

Dai rushed over to the individual and shoved the book bag into Saito's arms. "Hey there, pal. You better not forget this or I might be tempted on selling this." He joked, grinning.

Unfortunately, I haven’t posted much so I can’t really say how the RP is going for me. However, I love the idea of this RP as well as the freedom to explore. At first I had a bit of a writer’s block due to all that freedom, but once you get used to it, it’s actually pretty fun. Traps, puzzles, and mysteries are always a plus in my book. It’s interesting how you have to look for the clues and hints in your writing.

I agree, having our characters have a chance to chat would help. Honestly, I don’t have a whole bunch of ideas either. Maybe people are being led there? People had been kidnapped and been placed in a strange passage? People are hiding there for refuge from something? I dunno. ^^;

As for how I want to see my character develop… I guess I would like him warm up to people and build relationships?

@floodtalon Hey there! Sorry, but the main Death Arcana is already taken; although, you may be able to still have it as a Compatible. You may want to check out the Arcana List again and get that fixed.

Persona Ø (Accepting 1 Player)

@Blu Whoops, sorry. I can always edit my post and have Dai drag everyone there. As long as I got Destinyfailhorror17's and Zendrelax's permission to do that to their characters.

Yep, I vote for the food court.

Nurse Office

"Dude, you can't experience the full academy life without seeing the nurse. People kept telling me she's hot." Dai nudged Kazuo from the side, grinning playfully as he peer through the doorway to see Bride get the proper treatment from said nurse.

As much as it stroke his already inflated ego, Dai couldn't help but feel a bit overwhelmed by the number of thanks that Bride handed out from a simple act. Most people would stare at him strangely if he were to randomly tie their shoes. It was... a bit our of the norm - not that it was a bad thing, of course. Heck, it told him that Bride must be an incredibly kind person if he's that grateful for something as simple as a shoe tie.

"Rosebud, please, you're flattering me too much. For my own sanity, just keep watching my-- everybody's back as thanks, 'kay? It's that kind of thing where we scratch your back, and you scratch ours, right, Gruffy?" Dai suddenly addressed Gruffydd and offered him a grin as a proper greeting. He looked back to Bride, frowned, and nodded. "Is that so? Sorry, I just assumed you were a nervous guy. Honestly, I've never heard of a condition like that."

Persona Ø (Accepting 1 Player)

Posted. Dai still needs to return the backpack to Saito. The duties of a backpack wielder is too heavy of a responsibility for him...

That or he'll be tempted to sell it.

“No prob.” Dai watched as Bride took the drink; the feminine boy stood and explained that the shoe laces were the perpetrators to this whole incident. As his classmate answered yes to his latter suggestion, Kazuo walked onto the scene and inquired what happened.

“Hey, Kazuo.” Dai greeted the transfer student with a grin. As the stuttering boy repeated his story to Kazuo, Dai eyed Bride’s shoes. “No biggie. We’re all a little clumsy once in a while.” He shrugged nonchalantly before he tied Bride’s laces without a care. Dai was still squat to the ground so might as well. It was tempting to tie the laces into giant decorative bows found only on Christmas presents, but it won’t do to freak out any potential friendships so soon. He'll do that later. Instead, he opted for a normal one – small and neat.

“Allllll done!” Dai hopped to his feet and dusted off his hands, looking proud of his work. His moment of pride was broken when his back pockets vibrated. Having done this many times before, he flipped opened the phone in one fluid and smooth motion, fingers ready to go into action. However, he was silent; his gaze flickered between the vibrating phone to his fellow classmates. Bride and Kazuo - two people he didn't know except through the occasional gossip. Would he really pass up this chance of getting to know them just to get more gossip?

Of course, not! Besides, Bride appeared to be nervous and hurt. The poor guy should lighten up more especially around classmates. Plus, Kazuo is a pretty mysterious guy. This was a good chance to know them both.

Dai shoved the device back into his pockets, and stared at Bride and Kazuo with a thoughtful look. “Kazuo, you just transferred here, right? Minto, we should show the new guy around the Wonder Mall after we pick up a proper ice pack. I’ll treat you guys to something nice.” He offered to sweeten the deal.
