[ They've made it through their boss fight! Miraculously. And while Elysium is typically covered from head to toe, it unfortunately wouldn't take much convincing after the first suggestion for him to ditch his shirt. So here he is now, sans top, idly hanging one of the fruits of their labour between his thumb and index finger, gently swaying it back and forth like a metronome. It's their magnifying glass. ]

This thing couldn't have come any sooner? Imagine if we had it for the party.

[ As light as he's trying to keep conversation, it's tough, voice slightly strained. Occasionally, he finds his hand drifting up to rub at his neck, almost as if checking for something that isn't there. Eugh. ]

[artificialsweetener]

[HE DOESN'T LIKE ANYTHING THAT JUST HAPPENED. HOW BEAT UP DID HE EVEN GET AS A NONCOMBATANT. HIS INJURIES!!! But he is happy with their haul, at least... Just ignoring the creature they just fought and the weird feeling of gentle suffocation and tummy pats to put his shirt back on and card through their items.]

Wow...! I can see how people get really messed up in these things. We better be able to use these for something good after all of that trouble!

[He is a genius so he's sure he can do SOMETHING WITH THEM. Imagine he can't. Very funny.]

What was up with your bust, too?

[LOOKING AT TOKINAGA. WHY DOES HE THINK TOKINAGA KNOWS.]

[vacuous]

What do you mean what was up with it?

[ HE DOES NOT CONTROL THE BUSTS. ]

[artificialsweetener]

What was up with it...

[DON'T JUST REPEAT THE QUESTION.]

[vacuous]

Maybe it was upset you guys tried to abduct it? I think I would be.

[ And then it teleport jumpscared them at the door. ]

[transmit]

He's always so calm… do you think it could be a reflection of his inner self? I thought of all of ours, his would've put up the least resistance.

[ Also looks at Tokinaga wondering if he is in denial. ]

[artificialsweetener]

Woah... [They're just both looking at Tokinaga now.] You might have a point! His inner self is full of surprises!

[vacuous]

You'd want to use it at the party...?

[ He is not shirtless. It will take a few rounds of suggestion for him to do so at this current point, when hes covered collar to toe and even extra, considering he comes with an eyepatch and gloves. ]

That aside, are you alright? That thing...

[ This goes for everybody. ]

[transmit]

Well, yeah? If everyone's busy drinking, who'd think of blaming lil ol' us? [ US… ] That, and the wider net I cast—… well, that's not important.

What's important is that we all made it out pretty safely! I almost thought we were goners when it turned out Yosuke and I were the only ones to hold the line. [ A light little laugh. ] Looks like we're going to need to bust out some more papers as warnings, señor.

[ I forgot to note that I rolled a fuckin 18 for injuries, so. There's that. Unfortunately, this is where I also need to link another visual as neat rows of protruding crystals line his waist, arm, and shoulder—so no one's gazes will have to stray far from the light of god in order to see them and/or comment if they really want to. dies. ]

[vacuous]

That's good that you can still think of having fun.

[ Though, he loses a bit of colour at having the fact that he's a non-combatant brought up. His best attempt was intimidation on grounds of having a big-ass gun with a tranq, and maybe is a decent blunt weapon besides. ]

Sorry, I can't move really all that well, so the best I can offer is holding up the rear...

...Um...

[aerodynamic]

[ okay you all can argue about tokinaga's bust and everything and not wear shirts, he does not care. somehow he walked out of this boss fight without any injuries which is wild?

but that's probably because this is the first time he's actively used his persona in a fight here, which for anyone who has not seen it it's this thing. and because he used takehaya susano-o in a fight... once they're all out of danger and recuperating he sort of just collapses on the ground. sp... low... ]

Why in the hell do these things get weirder and weirder? [ he sounds both annoyed and disturbed though. ]

[artificialsweetener]

[SOMEHOW I HAVEN'T SEEN THIS BEFORE BUT THIS IS HILARIOUS. Dahut will scoot over and put a hard candy into his pocket helpfully.]

When you're feeling better, let me interrogate you!

[He's just kidding probably... In verbiage, not in intent...]

[aerodynamic]

[ it's so big... also don't put the candy in his pocket, he's grabbing it to put it in his mouth instead to try and regain his energy even while he's wilted on the ground. ]

What kind of interrogation? [ he has gotten the sense dahut is not kidding, so here we are. ] Think I could ask you a few questions myself.

[vacuous]

[ Thinking about how if he were twelve years old he'd be soooo envious of Yosuke-kun and his mega cool summon but now he's an adult whos seen the horrors

It's still kind of cool, honestly. ]

[aerodynamic]

[ from where he's facedown on the ground: ]

Tokinaga-san... why is this man everywhere.

[ i think he would at least recognize obikawa from tokinaga's initial memory and such. ]

[transmit]

[ the way i opened this expecting my disco frog completely forgetting they had other personas HELP

But he just squats next to him like a gremlin and gently pats his shoulder. Pat pat. ]

That thing you summoned back there——that was the Persona you were talking a while back, yeah? Is that how you imagine yourself, or is that how you want to be…?

[ kids these days are so fascinating ]

[aerodynamic]

[ i miss jiraiya every day but unfortunately he max-bonded with yu.

anyway thanks, he will roll over a little to get a better look at elysium even if he doesn't quite sit up yet. ]

Yeah. Takehaya Susano-o. I've summoned him a few times since we've been here and used some of his abilities, but nothing quite like this so far. [ exhausting... ] It's nothing like that though, I'm not sure why he looks that way. This is the third time he's changed.

week 3, the week 2 continuation..........

[transmit]

[ i'm not sure why i made a blank top-level to begin with but past me was onto something i guess.

anyway.

Everyone's getting a message through their compact to meet up in the manor's foyer for something IMPORTANT! And by important it's just Elysium holding up his fuckin socks from Bostco. That he himself did not get because he was distracted with getting limited edition L*bubus——but no one needs to know that. ]

You guys didn't think I'd forget, did you? Surprise!

[ The mods have given me the following effects to play with when the socks are worn:

- Tell one truth about themselves every hour.
- Make them begin spreading wild conspiracy theories.
- Give them the urge to dance.
- Grow a pair of bunny ears and a bunny tail.
- Make them want to dote on the first person they see.
- Believe the world will end if three people aren't all holding hands.

Elysium himself does not know anything about them… he is an innocent. ]

[artificialsweetener]

[THIS IS SO FUCKING FUNNY. The way that they were just attacking Tokinaga about it but he's still delighted to see that they have enough socks for all of them now, like a little team uniform.]

Wow, wow! You actually got some!

[transmit]

Did you think I wouldn't? We had to make it up to the good Señor! Then I thought——there's no reason why any of us should be left out.

[ THEY CAN JUST TAKE WHATEVER THEY WANT. WHAT'S MONEY. ]

[artificialsweetener]

[WHAT'S MONEY!!! Returning to society is going to be so rough.]

That's true, that's true! I like it this way, too. We can all match!

[aerodynamic]

[ he was like 90% passed out for this sock conversation so this is a little surprising, but sure. team socks. ]

I'll admit, I'll admire your ability to commit to the bit.

[transmit]

[ TEAM SOCKS!!!! ]

Yeah? Then take that admiration and make your pick!

[aerodynamic]

[ he will wear these socks because elysium gave them to him and then probably be mad later when he sees what happens to them. ]

Okay, okay! Twist my arm about it why don't you... they've just gotta look good with sneakers.
