[Minami and Minato both? He stands there in awkward silence as he tries to piece everything together. Of all his friends that had personas, every single person had a unique one. Even Yu, who could go through them like candy, never duplicated the persona of another person. The only exception was Adachi's persona, and even that one was at least slightly different from the one Yu used]

[So what, were they the same person or something? He's ready to dismiss the idea as profoundly dumb until he remembers meeting a certain topless doctor with a screw in her head. She had mentioned that she had a double of herself there who also happened to be a male]

[And once he realizes the truth, he also realizes he's in no way prepared to handle the truth and the surprise and fluster of it all is apparent on his face]

Wow, that's uh... that's weird! I've never heard of two people using the same one before!

[sageprincess]

Is it?

[Zelda tilts her head, admittedly rather curious as to why this boy seems to be so bemused by that revelation. Personas seem to have a good number of rules that she just doesn't understand quite yet.

... She wonders if it's because they're siblings, but she can't very well tell someone she just met that! Not when it's a secret to most, to her knowledge.

-- Right, she almost forgot!]

Nevertheless, I must thank you for what yours has done; I do feel a bit lighter - enough to make a good difference at the very least. I promise I will put it to good use.

[princeofjunes]

[Well, at least she's letting it drop! What a classy lady, this princess. He makes a mental note to seek her out again under better circumstances sometime. For now...]

I'll explain everything I know about personas some other time, but we should focus on running for now. What I did will wear out before long, but I'll try to keep it up for as long as I can. Sound good?

[sageprincess]

[She nods firmly.]

That sounds like a good plan, yes. I look forward to learning more, but I will be content with reaping the benefits for now.

[There's another smile, though this time it's grateful instead of awkward. Ah, but she has one more question before she starts on the treadmill again.]

Whose name should I ask for when some other time arrives?

[princeofjunes]

[He's not doing great at the whole introducing himself thing, but he might as well make a joke about it. A huge grin adorns his face as he gives an exaggerated bow with a flourish]

Oh fair princess, if you but simply ask for Yosuke Hanamura, I'll be glad to answer any and all questions!

[He looks back up and gives a wink]

Sorry, just had to get that out of my system.

[sageprincess]

[And for the first time all week most likely, she allows herself to laugh, just a bit. Though it is quickly covered by her hand, whoops.]

Very well, Yosuke, I shall be certain to meet you again once more pressing matters have been attended to.

[And while she doesn't wink back, she does give him a slight tilt of her head to indicate that she's just playing along.]
