      ☙ROOM 02-05❧
[ It's a lot to take in and at first, Yukiko Amagi is absolutely horrified. While it had always been a desire of her's to leave that town, to find out that the entire world was destroyed could be shattering to anyone's normally unyielding resolve. Not only that, but she's stuck wearing this horrendous suit and what's up with this collar? Yellow liquid? Not that she has any problem with the color yellow, but it's still a lot to take in. For the rest of the morning she can be found doing a variety of newbie-related tasks: reading the letters, sobbing quietly into her pillow, changing into more familiar attire, and shoving the white body suit she woke up in a far corner of her chest only to cover it up with whatever she can find. ]

      ☙Dormitories❧
[ Yukiko's under the belief that she couldn't have been the only person from her world to arrive here. Wouldn't they pick out a human boy just in case of things-that-should-not-be-said-out-loud first of all? With renewed vigor, Yukiko will be snooping around in the other rooms. Don't worry, she's at least pleasant about it; giving out apologies when they are needed, she does what she can to not give the impression of a thief. When she runs into someone though, she's quick to speak up. ]

S-Sorry there, I was just looking for people I might know. [ Quickly adding on: ] I'm Yukiko Amagi, by the way!

[ Or maybe she's discovered at one of the many terminals on this level. She'll look away from the screen long enough to give a polite nod of her head. The language on the computer screen? Japanese. It seems she just got done recording herself though. ]

[Yukiko just chose the room to snoop in.]

No need to apologize. [He flashes her a smile.] The name is Lancer.

[innheritance]

Lancer? [ That seems kind of a strange name. English? Although wouldn't it be Lance in that case? ]

Are you a natural citizen of this tower or are you too from another world?

[wouldulikesomemakingfuck]

Out of this world. Most people are. I take it you're new here?

[innheritance]

Most people? [ So not everyone? That's good... well, as good as the knowledge that a bunch of other worlds were destroyed can be. ] Yes, yes I'm new here. I arrived just this morning.

Dorm

[wweh]

[Yeah, meet your first (?) troll, Yukiko. He hastily hides a stuffed whale plush behind his pillow.]

Don't you humans ever fuckin' knock?

1/2

[innheritance]

[ What a cute plushie... For a moment she wonders if he would get along with someone else before his words sink in. ]

Ah! I was rude, wasn't--!!

[innheritance]

[ Suddenly this icon: ] You're gray!

[wweh]

[g l a a a r e]

A' course I'm gray! I'm a troll.
I don't do that to you humans!

[innheritance]

Why are you gray?

[ Yukiko baby, you can't just go around asking people why they're gray. ]

[hundred_power]

No worries! We're all friends here, miss.

[Well, he kind of hopes that.

Yukiko has stumbled upon a dark-haired man wearing what appears to be a superhero half-mask over his eyes in another dormroom. He's going through his recently recovered items.]

I'm Wild Tiger! And it's my duty to help people.

[innheritance]

Wild Tiger? [ She repeats his name for emphasis before giving a nod. ] Then it's fortunate I've found you in this place, isn't it?

[ That's to say: ] I do need a lot of help.

[hundred_power]

This can wait for now. [Kotetsu pulls himself up off the floor and closes the trunk, but not before throwing on his hunting cap. He doesn't want Yukiko to make the same first mistakes he did. He has a feeling she wouldn't take it as well.]

Come on, I'll show you around the safer spots.

[innheritance]

[ No, she probably wouldn't. Regardless, she's relieved for any help she can get. ]

The safer spots? [ A thoughtful pause. ] That means there are dangerous places here too, aren't there? What kind of danger can I expect in this tower?

[starofpleiades]

Hi, Yukiko! I'm Kazumi~

[This young girl seems all too happy to meet someone new]

Eheh, I know the feeling, looking for familiar faces...

[innheritance]

A pleasure, Kazumi.

Ah, so you're looking for people here too? [ Well, since she's on a hunt already herself, it wouldn't hurt to offer help. ] Could you tell me their names? I might run into them while looking for my own friends.

[starofpleiades]

Mm, well, I already looked when I got here, but yeah, if you run into any of them! They might have gotten here without me knowing. There's Kaoru Maki, Umika Misaki, Mirai Wakaba, Satomi Usagi and Nico Kanna! They're all girls about my age.

What about your friends?

[innheritance]

[ A nod. ] I'll keep a look out for them and if I find them, I'll direct them to this room. It's a promise.

[ As for her friends, Yukiko's eyes shut to think on that. There are so many of them to consider mentioning. Well, the other girl didn't seem to hold back in naming a lot, so there's no problem in Yukiko doing the same. ]

I'm looking for Chie Satonaka, Yu Narukami, Yosuke Hanamura, Kanji Tatsumi, Naoto Shirogane, and um...

[ It seems improper to mention Rise in general, but there's one more: ] A shorter boy named Teddie.

Well, since they're on the same floor... Dormitories.

[pitiedthefool]

[...You know, he's pretty sure he made certain the door was closed as he was buttoning his shirt. Wh-

... He recognized that voice.

Without thinking of it further, he turned to face her - at least only the two top buttons were left undone? - almost unsure if he wanted this to just be a dream or if he wanted her to be here and alive. E...especially after...

No. He couldn't think that, couldn't say it. Instead he only blinks once before --]

...Yukiko-?

Aw yeah!!

[innheritance]

[ Oh no... she's walked in on the protagonist dressing. Normally this sort of incident would result in crazy shenanigans, usually with flailing and some crazy YouTube remix. There's none of that though as she inhales sharply. ]

You're here too? [ It's only natural he should be, right? ] S-Sorry, I was just so surprised. After reading those letters...

[pitiedthefool]

[Luckily it was only the shirt left-? Regardless, he does turn around to face her and, expecting as much lately due to the last few times he's seen friends come and go. ...Herself included. Of course, none of them had walked in on him getting dressed - or for that matter, without knocking first - before...

Though the lack of her flailing at something like this was a sign that something was bothering her. It automatically took precedence.

Ah. The letters. He shakes his head slightly, turning further to face her completely.]

...It's alright. I was the same when I first showed up and ran into Yosuke. [It's almost funny, thinking back that far...] We don't really have any evidence to point out that it's true.

[There's something unspoken there, but he'll address it later. The fact that she's here and not... gone...

... He's going to eventually dislike this place more than humanly possible, he swears to the god in his head.]

[innheritance]

[ Hearing that from him does bring some comfort to her mind. What worries she has move into a more dormant state in her mind as relief fills the features of her face. ]

So there's a chance that everything is normal back home. [ Leaning against the frame of the door to steady her beating heart, she begins to calm down. ] Everyone else is here too, yeah? We should meet up somewhere and get our thoughts sorted. I [ Um. ] wouldn't want to trouble anyone with my sudden appearance.

[imperialsun]

Yukiko? Oh! You're one of Narukami-san's friends, aren't you?

[It's good to see more Persona users around, considering so many have disappeared lately...]

[innheritance]

[ With a nod too enthusiastic for someone who's just arrived: ] Yes, yes I am!

[ It doesn't surprise her to hear someone mention him by name. He's probably pretty popular here, but wait. ]

Has he mentioned that he's looking for me? [ How embarrassing! ]

[imperialsun]

[He just grins back.]

We're always looking for our team members. Naoya Toudou. I'm a Persona user, like you.

[innheritance]

[ That's surprising! ] A Persona user..? [ Ah! ] Is there a lot of us here? Teams and Persona users, that is.
