Okay so, I've been here a bit and I think I've got a handle one the situation. I got some binoculars from that weird guy's store, been scoping out the situation during this "Dark Hour" nonsense. Basically, there's these monsters that come out at night and stuff, and they're only around for an extra hour in the day, and only us "kidnapped" people can see them. Did I miss anything?

Looking around, it just got me to thinking...wouldn't be easier if we all just, ya know, stayed inside? Or left town? I mean, they're not a threat to anyone but us, right? And while I enjoy the all-expenses-paid vacation in America, it's not like we owe this place anything anyway. What exactly is stopping us from just sitting back in nice, barricaded hotel rooms and letting these "Shadows" or whatever mill around every night? When you think about it, we probably provoked them all wandering around outside those coffin things in the first place.

Well, anyway, that's just my opinion. I understand if some crazy people want to have fun with all that fighting and stuff, just...try not to rile them up too bad, huh? I'm just going to work on a bar for my door here at the hotel and enjoy the cheap-slash-free food. The restaurants here beat the hell out of Inaba's, that's for sure.

That would be nice, but they affect the town every full moon. There's also nothing stopping them from going 'this month everyone gets to kill themselves'. And that would not be good.

They affect people during the day time? What do they do?

The week before the full moon, people go mad. I heard that before I came here, they drove people to hide in their houses and refuse to leave for any reason - even some of our number, with Personas.

Hm...

There isn't any way we can allow that to continue. It could get far, far worse.

Heh. i know what you mean man. going out and bothering things that aren't even bothering us? sounds like the people who do that are the real bad guys.

Pretty fugly large cats but still yeah. How do you declare war on things that are no smarter than animals? It sounds like people are just itching for a fight.

Last time those creatures kidnapped two of our own and held them hostage until we defeated them. We may get pulled into the fighting, whether we like it or not.

[rookieforever.livejournal.com]

Wow, kidnapping? How'd they manage that?

Video

[crazyoldbat.livejournal.com]

We don't know yet. We just know it happened and the situation could have been disastrous if we hadn't managed a rescue.

Video

[rookieforever.livejournal.com]

That does seem pretty serious...how do you know that?

Video

[crazyoldbat.livejournal.com]

How do I know it could have been dangerous? Because those things haven't hesitated to try to hurt us in the past and I don't need to be a genius to know what they may do to an unarmed child they had captured.

I wasn't at the scene myself, but there were many witnesses.

[And then the King of Dicks found a new punching bag named ShinjiAdachi.

What are you, some sad child who's afraid of dying? How pathetic.

[Video]

[rookieforever.livejournal.com]

I never said anything about being afraid. I'm just wondering why we're riling these things up if we don't have to!

[best-king.livejournal.com]

That's simple. These 'shadows' are nothing more than wild animals to me. They do not belong in the city. Now tell me, what do you do with wild animals that do not belong among men?

[rookieforever.livejournal.com]

...call animal control?

[best-king.livejournal.com]

...No. You kill it yourself.

Mongrels these days. Bet you don't even know how to capture your own food, either.

...Well, I was about to say something, but then I realized there's no way to say it without sounding like a bit of a bitch. So, sorry in advance!

Anyway, a free vacation's all well and good, but I've kinda got some important business to attend to back home. Considering the only thing extremely "out of place" other than us is the shadows, they kinda bear investigating. Even if said investigating'll inevitably bite me in the rear.

[A pause, and a thoughtful tone of voice when she speaks again.] I've heard they've managed to break into the hotel before. Not sure how useful locks are against them... It's hearsay, though.

[Video]

[rookieforever.livejournal.com]

You know what they say. If you can't say anything nice...

[That's noted, though.]

And shit, really? Well...maybe I should at least get a gun, too.

[Video]

[skaldssong.livejournal.com]

In my defense it's more self-important than really bitchy... still, you get what I mean, I think.

Yeah. Like I said though, it's just something I heard. I mean, I didn't see it myself. Still, it'd be good to keep something on you for self-defense. More than just shadows running around, after all.

Well thanks for the heads-up. I hope I can get a license without, you know, a passport or anything.

[skaldssong.livejournal.com]

Probably can... So far Prospero seems to have had a pretty lenient policy on things-you-need-to-show-them-to-get-stuff.

Coincidentally, a license for what?
