Oh yeah almost forgot.

Past Liam: Continue South.

Owp sorry, I forgot to put in the new map with east and west being the options. Update later.

[Johnfalcon99977]

Ah, ok then.

>Past Liam: Lets do the time warp coin flip again! Heads East, Tails west.

[freeformschooler]

Derek tapped his fingers against the table and frowned. "Whats the general requirements for gaining one anyway? I never found out how Ochita did it and mine was a cluster fuck."

(GAIA): "Usually, it's some sort of intensely stressful situation. Most gain their Personas within one to two days of being activated."

(Akihiro): "Water Lady had me solve a puzzle. I've felt smarter ever since then!"

(Undine): "I was chained up by an invisible creature right after being pulled into your world. Safe to say someone's screwing with all Persona Wielders right now."

"O..Oh? If he showed up to school, I haven't seen him in any of our classes.."
Ochita is looking up, pretty confused.

(Aiko Kuroda): "My relationship with him works because I don't ask questions. He always told me I wouldn't like the answers, so when he disappears or has to do something important, I just let it slide."

Ah, ok then.

>Liam: Lets do the time warp coin flip again! Heads East, Tails west.

Past Liam flipped tails and headed west for a few blocks. After noticing a nearby park where children were running and playing under the trees, he realized this was Cherrygrove Road, a road that eventually intersected the road he lived on.

For some reason, people were staring at him from across the road. Ordinary-looking people who he didn't recognize. Some began to point, and the laughs of the children in the park sounded more sinister the closer he walked by them. Something was going on here.

God, this walk gets creepier by the second, Thought Liam as he buried his hands into his pockets and quickened his pace. Better hurry home before anything else happens.

>Liam: You should know the way from here. Hurry home before the Japanese tentacle monsters attack. Those exist, right?

[Ochita]

"Ah, okay. Well.. Tell him I said hey? I'm just surprised that despite him being in this school I haven't seen him or heard of him at all."

Ochita shrugs, and looks towards derek and the other group.
"Oh, hey. I think I know that guy, maybe I saw him once.. I'll speak to you later, okay?"

Ochita excuses himself from the table, and sits along with Derek, Gaia, and Akihiro along with Undine.

"Hey, talking about the new guy, or..?"

[Johnfalcon99977]

Sorry if this seems a bit annoying Ochita, but...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Ochita: Sitting with Derek, Gaia, Aiko Kuroda
Akihiro, Undine: Sitting across the table from previous group
Liam: Sitting on his own I guess?
Unimportant other students: Who cares?

[Ochita]

((I don't know, I just find the idea of the other group talking about persona's right next to me and Aiko a bit silly or something?))

[freeformschooler]

((Next time I let everyone narrate where they sit Just let me know when you want a scene change.))

[Dermonster]

"Yeah, pretty much. We have three options. Induct him in fully right now, induct him partially until he gets a persona naturally, or try to make conditions such that he summons it sooner rather than later, then induct him. I'm liking option two the best at the moment, myself."

Derek frowns a bit. "The first would get him to trust us more fully, but also puts us at risk, since we don't actually know him all that well and he might not be able to hold a secret. The third would probably involve artificially creating the trigger, which I don't really think would improve his disposition to us. The second, however, would leave us a period without a potentially useful team member. What do you think?"

[Ochita]

Ochita nods his head, thinking thoughtfully. "Yeah.. I think option 2 would be best. I mean, I think a way to trigger a persona is to put the person into a lot of stress.. I mean, I got mine after I found Akira fighting off a demon in the school's basement." Archangel grunts, and shrugs. "He didn't run away like the other boy. He actually did rather well for his first fight."

Ochita coughs. "Well, the dog demon died..? Quite easily. Anyway.. I'm kinda scared about SYNTEC, and what Aiko has said to me." Ochita points to the blue haired girl. "She's acting like.. He never died, and that he attended school today... I'm actually kinda worried for her. What if shes having a mental breakdown oh god that would be bad." Ochita burys his head into his arms. "Not even my third day of school, and already one of my original friends is dead, and the other is possibly going insane."

[Dermonster]

Having nothing to say to that, and feeling rather panicked, Derek awkwardly pats Ochita on the back.

"Um, there there?"

[Ochita]

Ochita still has his head in his arms and is now starting to just sob. "Also its not like all of this was asked for..  No 'Oh yeah Nori, listen you can help heaven if you want to.' No. Its just something that's important on a cosmic scale, but you know, no pressure." Ochita is now starting to kinda cry. Archangel pats him on the shoulder, its normally iron gaze softening up.

[Johnfalcon99977]

Edit: Oh second thought, I retract this comment. I don't feel that it really fits.

[Dermonster]

Derek hesitated. He really hated when people cried.

"Okay, uh, look. I know things are tough right now. Your friend died in front of you, the whole war thing, but you've still got us. We're in this together?  I don't think that everything will turn out fine, but I'll be damned if they turn out horrible. No matter what happens, We'll be there to help out, okay? You're not in this alone, and I'm not leaving anytime soon."


((I AM NOT GOOD AT EMOTIONS AAAAAAA))

[Ochita]

Ochita slowly rose his head up, eyes a bit red. "Y..Yeah.. I'm sorry, but I need to be alone for a bit. I'll see you in class later, okay?" Slowly getting up and getting his bag, Ochita leaves the lunchroom, before heading up to the roof. There he sighs and leans against a wall. "Archangel,  I've been wondering something. Why was there a demon here? And from what it seems, undine was trapped here.. And the principle.. I think after school, we should investigate this place.."
