[Action; High School]

[There's some interesting rumors spreading today. It's quiet, but general murmurings seem to indicate that there's a new club at the school, and an odd one at that. It has a small room to itself despite having only a single member, and the student council is said to want nothing to do with it.

Should your character follow these rumors to the fated room (or even stumble upon it by chance), they'll find a door innocently labeled "Newspaper Club". Even though the door is closed, the faint sound of computer keys can be heard from within.

Investigate?]

[Video; Evening]

[There's a new face on the feed! Well, new if you haven't run into her around town, at least. She's got a confident smile on her face as she begins.]

Hello there! I'm another newcomer, Hiyono Yuizaki. It's been about a week, but I'm still getting adjusted to this place. So I thought to myself: I should use this network to ask around!

Based on what I learned, I was able to obtain my Persona. Unfortunately, much like me, she isn't very suited for combat. Right now I am capable of using her to get data on the Shadows around me, but other than that she has no offensive abilities. Since I don't have any fighting experience either, we were forced to flee instead. Which brings me to my first question:

I know where I can get a weapon, but what would people recommend? I was thinking a gun or some other long-ranged weapon would be best, but as I said earlier, I don't have any experience in fighting. I would like to keep the enemy at a distance, but to do that I would need training. Is there anyone who could help me with this?

Also, if anyone needs the aid of a Persona with the "Analysis" ability, I would be happy to lend a hand. I might not be much of a combatant right now, but I'm certain I can be useful in pointing out strengths and weaknesses on the fly.

((OOC: Hiyono will probably start looking into student files soon. If you don't want her to know your character's record (name/age/year/residence, basically), just let me know through a PM or even a minor OOC note here. If I don't hear any word either way, I'll ask before I bring anything up in other threads. Thanks ♥))

Nice, Catgirl. You scan too.

Again with the Catgirl... I have a name, you know! And besides, I'm not even wearing those anymore!

So? Everyone's got a name.

So maybe you should use them. We have names for a reason!

[Names that are more flattering than Catgirl, to boot!]

Get used to it, Catgirl, it's not that big of a deal. Anyway, you're doing the whole fight thing?

Argh...

I hope to. It would be easier for me to help out if I could defend myself, right?

Yeah, I get it. Besides, maybe there's some big need for scanners.

It seems like it would be useful. Not sure if it's necessary, though.

What, mission control isn't necessary?

After watching some of the fights during the Dark Hour, I can't help but wonder...

[She had been painfully useless there, and to be honest, her pride is a little bruised.

But only a little.]

...Then again, it might be different for the dungeon. I haven't gone anywhere near it, so I suppose I'll just have to find a group so I can check it out!

Yeah, find a group and it'll be better. I'm looking, too.

Hopefully it won't be too difficult to find a team. For either of us, that is.

Well, hope not. It'll be easier on everyone.

Sneaking along would probably be considered rude, huh?

Sneaking along?

Oh, you know. Tagging along without permission. That sort of thing.

That would work if I could walk.

As long as you picked the right group, you could potentially get someone who would be willing to lend you a hand with that once they were aware of your presence. I'm sure there are plenty of people who would feel bad about leaving a girl who could hardly move to the Shadows, especially after she happened to be there to warn them about danger right when they needed it.

Yeah, I'd rather not die. I'll think about it. What about you?

It's up to you!

I'll probably ask around before I start taking any extreme measures.

I'll fix something up. Thanks a lot.

Is weapon really necessary?

[For this guy? EVERYTHING is a weapon.]

Unfortunately, unlike you, I can't just pick up any old thing and defend myself with it. A weapon would make me feel safer walking around by myself during that Dark Hour.

Then again, with the training I would need to do to handle a weapon in the first place, it's very likely I'll need to find others to explore with even if I do manage to get my hands on one.

[dotdotdot

Wat do, Shizu? You're barely an expert in weaponry.]

Get a gun or something where you can hit from far.

That's the plan! But first I'll need to find a place that will sell a high school girl something like a gun.

Hnn.

[...]

Try buying from other Persona users.

Do you happen to know of one who is currently selling guns?

There are people here who can teach you to use guns. And getting one isn't that hard, just expensive. My friend bought one from some guys in an alley recently.

About how expensive are we talking about? I'll probably need to get a job at this rate, so if I know how much I'm aiming for, that would help a lot.

Do you happen to know the names of anyone who could teach me, too?

I dunno. But she had a whole sack full of money. Then again, she makes a lot of money too.

You'd have to ask around for a teacher though. Most of the people who have volunteered to give lessons use some kind of archaic weapon.

I guess I'll just have to look around on my own... Thanks for the advice, though!
