βΏKarlita Romaro SanritaβΏ
Suave Hotel
Persona 3 - This Mysterious FeelingKarlita was sound asleep. Face pressed against the hotel bed sheet, pearl white, soft as sheep wool. Hand clasped against an empty bottle of wine, Karlita was rudely awoken by the powerful sun-rays beaming through the large glass windows adjacent to the bed. Unintelligible groans could be heard from the face-down mess.
"Errrgh..." Using her free hand, Karlita began to grab around the bed as if looking for something. Slowly rolling to her side away from the sun, Karlita blinked and rubbed her eyes, letting go of the wine bottle. The bottle bounced and rolled off the side of the bed, smacking the ground with a minor thud. Taking in the appearance of the room Karlita couldn't help but comment on how it looked like a crime scene.
"Goodness, what on earth did I do last night? Well, whatever happened, the hotel can fix it, afterall, that's what an all expense paid trip is for! Hehehe!" Karlita couldn't help but giggle, kicking her legs in excitement as she fist pumped the air. It then dawned on her, it was extremely important too, she had to be somewhere. Rolling out the hotel bed, she left adjusted her nightgown so it was no longer crinkled and walked to the bathroom to freshen up. All the while her mind wondered to yesterday and the events that led up to the present.
The Previous Day - 10am - Karlitas' HomePersona 3 - Afternoon Break"Oh gawsh, I'm already running behind schedule, I knew I shouldn't have been up all night but I did it anyway! Why god damn it why!?" Karlita was in a flurry, she had barely started packing, she'd spent the entirety of the night concocting more medicine and attempting to prepare a fragrance. Shaking her head, Karlita sighed and shrugged her shoulders. There was no time to waste, Karlita began packing for the trip to Paris. The trip flight itself was barely even two hours from Amsterdam so by leaving in the morning she could spend the entirety of the day sightseeing. Karlita was determined to milk this trip for all it was worth. Packing her bags she included some of her favorite dresses, work notes and the white work coat Karlita always wears when working, you never know when the opportunity might arise, even when on a expensive vacation. After folding her clothes, she placed them neatly in her suitcase. Zipping the suitcase tightly closed she walked over to a framed photo of her mother. Kissing the index and middle fingers of her right hand, she placed them on the photo frame.
"Goodbye, I'm sure you'll miss me, but I'll bring you back an amazing souvenir."The flight was comfortable, riding in first class wasn't an everyday experience for Karlita so she soaked up the luxury as best she could, drinking fine wines and scoping through the luxury magazines they lay out for everyone to window-shop with.
"As to be expected, as if anybody would buy this junk, let alone has the money too, but I supposed if your life as jet setter was just traveling the world, it'd be a normality for you." Placing the magazine down, Karlita spent the rest of her time attempting to learn French and English using two dictionaries she purchased at a travel Kiosk before the plane arrived for Paris. 'Spanish to English' and 'Spanish to French', without these two books, Karlita would most likely be relying on nods, head shakes and pointing.
What an amazing city, it was buzzing with life and culture. The French culture is something completely foreign to Karlita, wondrously foreign too, she couldn't wait to explore every inch of it. All she knew of the city was that it's a city of love. Perhaps today, Karlita could find the lover of her dreams. Tall, handsome, muscular... As her mind ogled into fantasy Karlita was quickly brought back to Earth with the realization that she was being approached by a tall man, a man whom was not muscular nor attractive. He claimed to be from a hotel. The man was evidently dispatched to pick up Karlita upon her arrival in Paris. Karlita knew the hotel she had booked for the evening was good but not this good. Confirming her identity with the man, they drove to accommodation in a shiny black car. Not a fan of cars Karlita didn't recognize the model but she would call it 'retro'. It only took a few moments to check-in, keys in hand Karlita took the elevator to her room, suitcase in hand as the small wheels underneath struggled to keep up with her fast pace. Opening up her suitcase she made sure to look over the letter once more. Just to reconfirm her special date for tomorrow, but now was the time for sight seeing! Extremely excited to explore, she took her velvet purse and set out a self run tour of the city. Before deciding where to start, she flipped through a few magazines in the front lobby of the hotel, gazing at the hit tourist spots.
The Current Day - April 14, 2012 - 7:42am - Suave HotelFinishing up her make up, she came to the realization that she really didn't have a good memory of yesterdays' events. It must have been the wine, clearly she had too much last night and wound up forgetting everything that happened.
"Hmm.. After that, I don't really remember exactly what happened. Goodness Karlita, you need to lay off the wine!" Looking into the mirror she giggled to herself responding to her monologue.
"Nah, it's such a refined hobby, I could never!" Finishing up her morning routine, Karlita walked out of the bathroom, treading upon tourism magazine spread out along the floor. Leaning down to pick it up, Karlita wondered if there was anytime to do a little more sight seeing. The letter didn't state a specific time, just that she needed to be there, today. Thinking there was a loophole in her special date Karlita decided to flick through the magazine for somewhere interesting to visit. Nothing really stood out to her, in all honesty she was rather discouraged by this, there was just dusty museums, old churches and boring fountains. Unless these fountains were like the ones in Rome - good for wish making in the love department - Karlita was not interested. There were the catacombs too but honestly, who would get excited over something like human bones, talk about creepy. But one single attraction stood out to her for the day, what else could it be but a garden?
"Luxembourg Palace hmmm? Sounds interesting. Better than some dusty old church. Maybe they have some beautiful flowers that I can pocket for work hehe~" Enticed with the idea, Karlita set off from the hotel front to find these 'Luxembourg Gardens'.
