Shin Megami Tensei Persona: Dissonant Strain (Private RP)

[ShadowFolk]

Since she had escaped her predicament, Kumiko went to class. There were still doubts poking at her, not so much about Seiya, but that was probably just because she'd known of Seiya for a year. It was about Kurado, the man shrouded in mystery. Kumiko would just have to trust her senpai's judgment for now and pray to God that it was well founded.

Akinari sat through an 'examination' from Edogawa. He'd never had a check up like that before. The boy was beginning to question if the man even had a license for nursing. He was prodded and chanted at and soon after was handed a cup of what was supposed to be a liquid. 'W-what is this?'

The smell of it made him feel much worse. "This...this is supposed to make me better...right?" Akinari sniffed at the beverage and was repulsed.

'I should have just stayed in bed!'

Yamada st in class and pulled out his text books right away starting to read up on the lesson before it technically started. He wanted to get at least a little bit ahead and felt that maybe, with his mind as active s it seemed to be right now he could actually get something done. He turned to look behind at any teammates that were around then sighed and went back to what was comfortable for him, needing some sort of security blanket and finding it in his studies.

Kojiro shrugged at Rin, "Who knows. I guess well see right?" He flopped into his seat next to her and chat with her until class began.

Takuya arrived at homeroom after Seiya; he held her new phone in hands, still in its box. Through the little window you could see the touch screen phone, with a skin covering that made the back of the phone look like a little panda with big blue eyes, and a key chain made like a little piece of bamboo.

It was so adorable he felt nauseated carrying through the halls. But alas it had to be done. He approached her desk and held it out for her. He meant to announce his presence with polite 'hello', but became more interested in the papers she was going through and dove right into a question. "Might I ask, what's all that for?"

 

[Cinnonym]

"Um," Hikaru said in fumbled greeting, "It's paperwork for a new club. The, ah... The new Security Team for the campus..."

 

[Rosen2012]

"Security...Team...?" Takuya leaned over to see the paper work, and stopped abruptly when the box he was holding poked him in the stomach. "Ah! Right..." He held out the phone, "This is for you."

 

[Cinnonym]

Hikaru's chest swelled with gratitude, but she was able to prevent herself from outright squealing.

"Mori, you didn't have to... It's perfect. Thank you!"

She opened the box with as much patience as she could muster, admiring the decoration and the cute keychain before elaborating, "The faculty saw it fit to instill a sense of responsibility regarding the curfew... Everyone on the members' list is receiving top marks in schoolwork and, for the most part, has a healthy extracurricular investment. Won't that be nice, to have less to worry about, Mori-sama?" She paused, then added, "In the case that... you have somewhere else to be during the night hours...?" She hoped the promise of easy campus escape would be enough to satisfy him.

 

[Rosen2012]

Takuya considered this for a moment, and then gave a nod. "That is acceptable... Who all is in this club?"

He leaned over and watched her toy with the phone. It baffled him how she adored such simple things.

 

[Cinnonym]

She eyed him carefully while she adjusted the settings and added a few contact numbers she knew off the top of her head. "...Yoshida-san and Yamada-san, for example. Junsui-san, Mizushima-san, Ishikawa-san, and Furi, err--Eber-kun."

 

[Rosen2012]

Takuya's eye twitched. "Fridmund is on the security team?" He shook his head, "I highly doubt he's a good choice for campus safety."

 

[Cinnonym]

Hikaru quickly added, "Oh, but he's determined, and charismatic! Everyone will feel so much more at ease knowing he's on patrol."

 

[Rosen2012]

Takuya crossed his arms and eyed her- something was off about this. He sighed, and supposed for now he would have to accept it. This weekend. He would ask about it this weekend.

He uncrossed his arms, "If you think it's best...And in regards to the items I owe you. Say, this Saturday, after class, I will take you shopping."

 

[Cinnonym]

She couldn't stop the blush that creeped up over her cheeks.

"I-It's really not necessary, Mori-sama, all those things were just ornamental..."

 

[Rosen2012]

"Nonsense. I am going to pay you back. It's only right." He put his hand on her shoulder and leaned over to whisper in her ear, "I rarely get to treat you, so let me, Hiki-chan."

While he leaned over his eyes quickly read across the paper work, mentally taking down the club room number and the meeting times. He pulled back from her and smiled. Then he let go and returned to his seat without another word.

 

[Cinnonym]

Hikaru had to stare at her desk after a comment like that, lest anyone see what she'd look like with a tomato for a head.

The school day crawls, though the classroom is much more attentive than after yesterday's three-ring circus. The teachers are doing double-time to catch up to their strict syllabuses. Throughout the lectures of biological science, calculus, and the Meiji era, taking notes or no, you somehow make it to the lunch period and beyond.

When the final bell rings, the party collectively receives a text message indicating that everyone ought to meet in room 3-G--the new home of the "security club".

 

[Rosen2012]

At the last bell and text Kojiro lets out a sigh, "Time to get going." He turns to Rin and Isoroku, "Are you guys ready to go? Time to have our first of many new meetings..."

 

[Daren58]

Rin collected her bag and stood up. "I'm ready, though I'm not quite sure what I should be expecting."

 

[Rosen2012]

"I don't think any of us know what to expect..." Kojiro looked over at Isoroku, and motioned for him to hurry up.


----

When class ended Takuya stood up and looked back at Seiya. She was playing with her new phone already. He chuckled, amused at how she was so easily entertained. He stood up and approached her, "Seiya, are you heading to cram school soon?" Even though he had a feeling she was not he asked, "I'll accompany you, I can give you another ride."

 

[Cinnonym]

Hikaru jumped and clasped the phone in both hands, looking up with an apologetic smile. "Ah--Actually, class was canceled for today! The teacher's sick... But thank you for the offer. I'm just going to catch up on Student Council work I've missed." The girl gathered her things together to head out.

Eber was also on his way to the meeting, after spending much of the morning hovering in the hall outside Aki's door.

 

[ShadowFolk]

Kumiko's pocket buzzed. She took out her phone, checking the message. It was time to go meet up with the others. She headed to their new headquarters.

 

[Keppler]

"Yeah yeah..." Isoroku gave a flippant wave of his hand to Kojiro, gathering up what few things he had to gather. It took every ounce of him not to roll his eyes or say something sarcastic at the thought of 'many new meetings' but then he wasn't necessarily going to attend all of them. What were they going to do, force him to come along?

'Who knows...maybe these will be interesting. Or at least entertaining.' He stood and followed along with Kojiro and RIn.
