[There's a brief pause, and then the man on the screen - white hair, red eyes, total smirk and ease at his surroundings - starts talking. His tone is calm, as if this happens every day.]

Well. This isn't where I just was. For one, the sky is… normal, again.

[Ah, but that's no matter. What is important, however…]

Based on the limited information I've found this place is called… Prospero, correct? Not the name I would choose for an island, but I suppose it's not mine to name.

… And if anyone has any information on exactly where Prospero is, it would be appreciated.

Awaken? Awaken to what? And there's much I could tell you that you might not believe, so you might as well tell me.

[... Free? Hm.]

How... gracious.

[crouching_sin]

... I was just in Japan. Do you have any idea how this is possible?

[Video]

[crouching_sin]

It's nice to meet you too, V/V.

[Video]

[babel_hacker]

Just that much? Did anything happened in the future?

[Video]

[heavenscorpse]

Do you need help with anything here?

[breatheinthefog]

The abilities you had are gone, if you had anything setting yourself apart from a mundane being. There is something in their place. A part of yourself.

I suppose.

[Video]

[crouching_sin]

Not at the moment. I have someone I can get to give me information, anyway.

[crouching_sin]

So no magic, I suppose.

[... But. What?]

A 'part of yourself'?

[Video]

[crouching_sin]

Ah ah ah. That would be cheating.

[Video]

[heavenscorpse]

Okay. If you need anything you can call.

[Video]

[crouching_sin]

It's appreciated.

[breatheinthefog]

Not what you used to have.

Yes. Something like that.

[crouching_sin]

Explain.

[breatheinthefog]

Tengu.

*Still linefacing, Kaoru summons her Persona. She nods at it and then at Naoya.*

This is my Persona. A substitute for my original abilities, but also some form of or aspect of myself.

[Video]

[babel_hacker]

Aw, geez. Not even a little hint?

[Video]

[crouching_sin]

No. I know you've seen enough science fiction to know what happens when people start messing with those sorts of things.

[crouching_sin]

[... Interesting.]

And how... is such a thing awakened?

[Video]

[babel_hacker]

[Aww...] I know, Naoya.

...Did anyone told you about what happened at midnight here, yet?

[Video]

[crouching_sin]

No. Not what. What does happen?

[Video]

[babel_hacker]

At midnight for an hour, the night changed. It's easy to tell when the moon's green, water looks like blood, normal people changing into coffins and monsters wandering on the streets.

[caliberill]

What do you mean by normal? [LATE but this question is important to him, okay?]

[Video]

[crouching_sin]

[... To his credit, his expression doesn't change, at least.]

I see. And what defense is there against them, if any?

I can tell this is the start of a beautiful trolling relationship.

[crouching_sin]

Not red.

[As if it's obvious.]

[Video]

[babel_hacker]

Weapons can work on most of them. But our best defence are our Personas.

[Video]

[crouching_sin]

[The term is familiar, but the usage...]

And what are those?
