Shin Megami Tensei Persona: Dissonant Strain (Private RP)

[Cryptorus]

Ikazuchi felt relieved as he began seeing the gates of Akaito as he turned the street corner. He had spent the entire night on a Midnight express bus dipping between grogginess and a light sleep. He hadn't dreamt last night, he had been too anxious to dream, after all, he just left his friends and his family back in Kyoto and Kobe after his parents had agreed that it would be better for him to head to Akaito.

'Of course it isn't so bad I guess.. I'm going to be meeting new people, seeing new places!' Ikazuchi thought finally, breaking from his thoughtless stupor. He walked over toward the gate seeing students go in to start their school day, like he would Monday. Ikazuchi stopped right in front of the gate, just staring at what was going to be his new school for the time left he had as a high schooler.

Shiori stopped just outside her dorm room and checked her cell phone. There was still a lot of time before the classes started. "Fuck. I can't kill that much time just sitting in class. Maybe I should just head out on the track for a bit."

She went back up to her room and grabbed her running gear. At least it would be a bit warmer than her last day out. Quickly changing into it, she headed back down towards the track.

Kojiro's trek to school from the dorms was a bit more sluggish than usual, however his stomach was doing flips. 'What if the teacher thinks its weird...What if I get caught. What if we get caught! God damn it this was a bad idea...'

He sighed as he passed through the courtyard, despite the fact that for the first time in a long time his homework was done, and he was fully confident it was correct, he felt sick to his stomach.

Rin arrived at class and didn't see Kojiro or Isoroku so she decided just to settle at her desk.She unpacked her school bag and made sure she had everything in order from the study session last night. 'Ah I need to ask them when they'd want to do it again.' She nodded to herself and waited for class to begin.

As she was running to make up for the time she'd wasted, Kumiko stopped just short on colliding with Ikazuchi. The word 'date' had been flashing in her mind with great neon lights and it had been a little bit of a distraction.What on Earth was he just standing there in the middle of a high traffic zone for? "Hey! Don't just stand there. If you're waiting for someone do it by the steps. Or move to the side or something." It was hardly Ikazuchi's fault for Kumiko's absentmindedness, but at least it didn't sour her good mood.

 

[Cryptorus]

Ikazuchi quickly turned, startled by Kumiko. "Oh, I'm sorry, I just was thinking about my transfer." Ikazuchi said quickly. "Hey, could you maybe tell me where the faculty office is? I need to go and get my homeroom assignment." He quickly added. Ikazuchi hoped that this girl who almost ran into him would be able to help him, he didn?t feel that keen on winging it and looking through the school for the office.

 

[ShadowFolk]

"You're new?", Kumiko sighed inwardly. She wasn't exactly tour guide material and showing the new guy to the office would certainly cut into her 'look-at-the-hot-guy-run-by-in-glistening-glory' time. It would be really easy to blow him off. All Ikazuchi needed to do was just go inside the building and look at the directory that would tell him the faculty office was just a few doors down from the moment you walk in. But since she was guaranteed to still see Eber later, she lent a helping hand, leading him where he needed to go.

"Sure. See? It's just over here on the left."

 

[Cryptorus]

"Ok, thanks for the help. See you around I guess." Ikazuchi said before knocking on the faculty office door and entering. Ikazuchi then walked over to the nearest teacher and asked, "Pardon me, but you wouldn't happen to know who I could speak to for my room assignment? My name is Shibata Ikazuchi, I'm transferring here from Kyoto."

Kojiro finally made it to his class room. Still feeling a little dizzy from his thoughts on cheating. 'Why do I always get mixed up in this shit...'

He came in an took his seat next to Rin, nodding to her. "Hey. Thanks for studying with us last night...You're a life savor." He really did mean that, but it came out halfhearted. He felt like an ass, for wasting Rin's time when in reality Isoroku was just going to change their grades anyway...

Maybe he should tell her the truth...He stared at the door. he wondered how long before Isoroku arrived...

Takuya wasn't really interested in any new student, or a new teacher. And certainly not one he could kick down a flight of stairs and watch roll to their death.

Well....maybe he was slightly interested in that. He couldn't help but chuckle, which only made the few students near him in the hall cringe. It wasn't good if Takuya was laughing. It just wasn't.

A fact reinforced by the fact his laughter these days came accompanied by an icy wind.Certainly the idea of harming a few people was putting Styx in a better mood. She had been bitter since their shoot out with Fridmund. Spending every moment of thinking about when they would get their revenge and how...

Their had to be away to to cut that tricky bastard down to size...

He took his seat in class and thought only of this, not even noticing his secretary was gone from her usual place...

 

[Daren58]

Rin looked up from her school work as Kojiro took his seat. "Ah, don't mention it Kojiro, I'd be happy to do it again if you like."

Rin looked back at her work before glancing at Kojiro. Despite him thanking her, he seemed bothered by something. She considered prying but wasn't sure if she should. Sighing she just turned her attention back to double checking her work from last night.

 

[NeoAC]

It was a lonely run on the track. Shiori was hoping someone else might have had the desire to come out here in the early morning, but it looked like it was just her and the crickets. With no one else outside, she decided to cut her run short.

After a quick shower, she made the trek back up to the classroom. She got a double dose of disappointment as she entered. Not only was Mori front and center, but Hikaru was nowhere to be seen. It did not bode well for the start of her weekend. She slunk over to her seat, hopeful that she would not have to endure the icy aura of the class president by herself for too long.

 

[Rosen2012]

Kojiro watched Rin sigh, and did so just a bit himself. 'I'm a terrible friend...making her do all that work.'

He put his head down until the start of class.

-----

Takuya looked up from his seat as Hasegawa entered. Normally he wouldn't care to look at a student as they entered; however he was more interested in the 'other her'.

'How many are there?' He and Styx stared at her, their gaze trying to pierce through her human exterior to get to her inner self. 'What are their skills? What do they do....Seiya. Seiya knows what all of them do....'

He closed his eyes again as she passed, but Styx turned her head and continued to stare. Her focused eyes leaving a chill on everything she watched.
