i'm giving it my all

Characters: Steinette and whoever wants to run across her
Setting: 4th Floor
Format: Action spam, but I'll follow you
Summary: After getting sent back "home" Stein's in need of a cool down. Time for someone to bother her during her half-naked martial arts, clearly.
Warnings:

A sound soul- [She jumps and kicks high, gracefully landing down on her other leg, already poised for another attack] Rests in a sound body- [A low kick this time, her leg sweeping around her in a perfect arc before she's back up on her feet] And a sound mind. [She strikes out behind her with her palm, a strange electricity emanating from her hand.

She repeats the mantra and the attacks, and probably would all day if she could. It would be such a shame for someone to interrupt her...]

[Excuse him while he stares a moment. He assumed the screw was some fancy cosplay accessory or something - he now needs to re-evaluate his life choices]

N-no... no witches. Plenty of weird shit, but no witches.

[It makes a loud clicking sound and she drops her hair and stops turning it.]

What kind of weird shit do you have to deal with?

[Still staring]

We have another world inside of TV's full of monsters and a crazy goddess trying to end the world. Well, had - we took care of it.

...That's definitely a new one. I've never been in a TV before what's that like?

[Why don't people ask Naoto these things...]

Foggy. The entire world was full of super dense fog that blocked your vision unless you had special glasses. It was huge, but it wasn't constant - the landscape would change based around someone's subconscious. Like, someone felt like a trapped princess, so the world changed itself into a castle around them.

[He's so terrible at this]

What an interesting study that would make. Psychologists would have a much easier time figuring out their patients' problems, rather than wasting time following ridiculous ideas they have. [She'd just love to explore this place. It sounded fun]

So what did your section of the world look like, if you don't mind me asking.

[Evasive but truthful answer, go!]

I- I actually didn't get my own section! Me and my best friend were the only two that didn't, not counting the guy who lived in the TV world.

[She smiles wickedly, showing teeth] You're lying~ And poorly to boot.

It's true! I didn't get my own section!

[~~only because his shit went down while they were in someone else's~~]

Well you're certainly lying about something. I can see it written all over your soul. Along with what appears to be panic and embarrassment. Of course I don't have my glasses on so it could just be that my eyesight is getting worse.

[Hold on, back up just a second]

You... you can see my soul?

[She nods] I can. And I can read the changes in the wavelengths to know how you're feeling - currently it's curiosity, correct?

Come on, I just asked you a question! Of course I'm curious.

Or you could have just been trying to distract me from pressing about your non-existent section of the televison.

I didn't have a section. [Technically true!]

So what else can you tell about someone by their soul?

In your case, I can see that you have a very powerful soul for someone so young. And a few cursory personality traits. Usually it's the most prominent traits that I can see.

[Huh... that's pretty cool. And also a nice ego boost to hear that he has a powerful soul. Well, he is reliable and more than carried his weight...]

Stupid question, but if you look into a mirror, can you see your own?

Unfortunately not. I know what it looks like through other people's descriptions and the like. Though recently I've gotten to see it for myself, but only because there's another version of me running around and we have the same soul. It's a fascinating experience.

... say what?

There's another me living here as well. He seems to be from a later point in time than me as well, judging from his... Behaviors.

[Processing... processing... nope! Brainbreak]

So there's another you there. Except she's a he, and from a different time.

[DOES NOT COMPUTE]

Yes, that's the short version. He's quite nice, but not quite well. It's a shame really, I'd like to be able to get a more straight answer out of him so we could compare notes.

That... that doesn't freak you out?! There being another you?

[She's quiet for several moments.] He needed my help. I couldn't afford to simply freak out at his very existence. He needed me. He still does.

... that's kind of you.

[Talk about a heavy atmosphere. Yosuke regrets this line of questioning, but isn't sure what to change the subject to. In his panic, he blurts out the following]

... I didn't get my own area because my shadow manifest itself while I was in someone else's.
