008 | ❝Get this party started...❞

[pitiedthefool]

Characters: The Persona casts and invited guests (just ask if you want to hop in!)
Setting: Media Level, September 15th
Format: Whatever suits your fancy!
Summary: So the Shadow Event was Hell (haha), a few of them grabbed some booze from various sources(?!), so iiiiiiit's PARTY TIME~
Warnings: Somehow srs discussions in one thread and underage drinking in others? I don't even know, man.

So the last seven days had been a misty hell in the tower surrounded by fog... literally.

Muzicons.com

Sure, this was likely the normal aside from the fog... but that didn't mean that the residents didn't need some time to blow off some steam every now and then, and for the Persona users? It had been extremely rough on them with all the Shadows manifesting. That also included their own. Especially included their own in some cases (ow, Naoya...).

It didn't take much, just a small filtered and handwaved message to the other Persona users that Yu knew from either running into them in the battle for everyone's sanity in the past week or before then. "Bring what you can get your hands on," he said, but to the leaders there was also "we need to talk." Because there had been a long period of time where they hadn't spoken as a group... and after bribing Strega with a few rounds of Halo and possible drinking games if they could get their hands on some booze, he'd headed back up to the media floor...

There were no fancy decorations, but he had picked up what was disrupted from the fighting and cleaned like whoa. Everything was set up with whatever few snacks he'd saved in his trunk from the previous month.

Come on in whenever...


[ooc: feel free to mingle and do what you want. This IS a party, after all... so let loose and have fun with it! Start your own threads if there's something that doesn't fit what you were going to do. :3]
[EDIT: Due to earlier confusion, if anyone who knows/is close to any of the Persona people, they are welcome. Really, this is a party for friends.]

[Okay, he really did not peg Reno to be the type to just thank someone. So for him to actually say it? Yu got the feeling that he really did mean it, just like he always does when he says something and leaves the sarcasm out of it. He shakes his head, smiling.]

It wasn't any problem.

[Dude's got nerves of steel when it comes to friends and strangers being in danger. It just came with his many masks and being a capable leader. But that little hint of Reno wanting him to join the Turks what is that he was two when the game was released?

His face may not betray it, but something inside him was squealing. We'll just refer to it as his inner nerd/fanboy/omgisthisreallyhappeningwhydoifeelclosertoyoskenow? and be done with it.]

I'll think about it.

[NO SAY SIGN ME UP DAMMIT- Down, inner fanboy. Doooown. but we look good in a suit...]

[midgarhorizon]

You do that, kid. Not many people you can trust around here.

[Through he did raise one eyebrow at him, as if sensing something...

Then it was gone, and Reno sighed.]

Look, this ain't easy to ask, but if I disappear again...

[pitiedthefool]

I know a few, at least.

[Yu falls silent, catching the meaning behind what his friend was asking of him. For a teenager, the look on his face almost made it look like he was older than even his prematurely grey hair made him seem.]

Aah. [He could hear his Shadow's words even more clearly. The fear of being alone... of being unable to help those you care about.] They're my friends. If it comes to that, I'll do what I can.

[He manages a faint sound of amusement, pulling out a picture he keeps in his jacket pocket for safe keeping, now... showing it to Reno in the process. All of their smiles as they stood there, side by side. It's a little frayed around the edges, but seeing their happy faces again...]

Just as they had for me. Though they'd likely say it's the other way around. [For a moment, it's like he's talking about his younger siblings... even though they look nothing alike.] They won't be alone, and neither will you.

[midgarhorizon]

[Okay, Reno's a bit touched Yu showed him that. He kept a photo like that in his wallet... it was one of his last possessions from home and since returning he'd taken to holding on to it all the time.

A photo taken when the Turks were still together, before their exile from Shinra. They... had been happy then.

His hand brushed the pocket where it rested.

Some of them had been here, and disappeared. Rude, Rod, Siira... Even after being alone for several weeks in a dead world, he was surprised how strongly he reacted.]


Y-yeah... thanks...

[HE LITERALLY CAN'T SAY ANYTHING DAMMIT YU]

[pitiedthefool]

[He looks at it for a little longer especially the girl with a red-violet hint in her hair before pocketing it again.]

Any time.

[Was that a victory theme-? ...Mada you troll.]

[midgarhorizon]

[MUST BACKTRACK. Deep breath. OKAY]

Anyway... ya think this is enough? I could bring more down.

[pitiedthefool]

[There there, Reno. One day you will get used to the protag-level of closet sappiness are you sure you want this guy in the Turks.]

Knowing a few of us, a couple more bottles probably would be a bad idea...

[coughstregaplscough]

[midgarhorizon]

[Okay, that made him laugh.]

Yeah, okay. Have fun, kiddo. And if ya need anything, don't hesitate to call.

[pitiedthefool]

[Okay, that DEFINITELY was the FFIV Victory Fanfare... Dammit headgods can we please not do this yet?]

Alright. You're welcome to stay for a while if you want to though, Reno.

[> HELP KEEP XION FROM THE BOOZE YOU DELIVERED?]

[midgarhorizon]

Nah... but thanks for the offer. [Yu and Xion were pretty much the only ones he knew here. It would be too awkward.] 'Sides, I got a date later.

[pitiedthefool]

Ah. Just thought I would. [He shrugs. Still, he had to offer alright?] Have fun.

[He knows that feel. Enjoy your date, man. :) ]
