[but what if he just doesn't answer the door.




No, that's a joke. It will take a few moments, but Akechi will eventually open the door. Akira might notice that it looks like he's holding something in his left hand, though Akechi will quickly stuff his hand in his pocket while holding the door in place with the right.]

... What?

[survivaltricks]

[. . .]

[WELL NOW HE'S STARING AT AKECHI'S LEFT HAND, SO. THAT'S HAPPENING. and he isn't even beating around the bush as he asks--]

Did you get something for voting correctly?

[miscakes]

[He lifts an eyebrow at him.]

Is that truly why you knocked on my door?

[Order of business, Akira.]

[survivaltricks]

Yeah, actually.

[that is 100% the reason he's here]

I'll who you mine if you show me yours.

[miscakes]

[... Hm. Alright, then. He glances around, as if to make sure there's no one else around, and steps back.]

Not in the hallway.

[Get inside. He will hold the door open for him and everything.]

[survivaltricks]

[it's 10:30 pm and i can't type, please pretend i said "show"]

[Akira raises a brow, but! he slips into the room far enough for Akechi to close the door, watching him curiously as he does so]

[miscakes]

[Words are a myth. It's fine.

Akechi closes the door behind him, locking it and totally screwing his roommate over if he doesn't have his key. Once that's done, he takes a few steps away for the door, raises a hand to his face — and suddenly yanks it back like he's ripping something off.





... Hewwo? Guess who's hovering behind him now, chilling.]

[h]









[how]

[survivaltricks]

Hey, fuck you! I wanted to show off first.

[he's pouting]

[miscakes]

[... Yeah, he's totally laughing at him once he realizes what that means.]

You asked me to show you mine first, Akira. So I did.

[SUFFER.]

Which one?

[Show! Him!]

[survivaltricks]

[a DEEP sigh, but. Akira lifts his hand towards his face, pressing it against his features before pulling it away. and in a small whirl of blue fire, a familiar figure appears, hovering behind Akira in much the same way that Loki hovers behind Akechi]

[miscakes]

[HELLO, ARSENE... Akechi regards the persona, completely unsurprised. Of course this would be the persona Akira regained.]

So we both received the same reward... I wonder who else has had the same happen to them. [How many duplicate items are floating around...? Who the fuck is sitting on them? Hm.] How limited are Arsene's abilities?

[survivaltricks]

[he almost got Satanael back, but Arsene is so Important that of course it was Arsene!1]

Extremely limited.

[the corner of Akira's mouth twitches as he lifts a hand, waving it in the air as the Persona vanishes out of being again]

He only has one skill, and I only have enough SP to use it once. [sorry-not-sorry about the meta] I assume Loki is the same way?

[miscakes]

[Well, that's probably a good thing. Akechi doesn't even know Satanael became one of Akira's personas, so that would have turned into... a discussion.

He mirrors the motion, and Loki vanishes as well.]

Yes. It's disappointing, but it will have to do for now. [One more thing between them and a monster, at least.] Which skill is it?

[survivaltricks]

Eigaon.

[because I KNOW WHAT I'M ABOUT, and Akira's brows quirk upwards, pleased]

So if we need to destroy something very fast, I'm your new guy for that.

[miscakes]

As long as you make sure whatever you destroy is worth our time. We can't afford to waste this.

[Like the house. Want to nuke the house? That would be nice.]

[survivaltricks]

The "source."

[the heart. whatever it is. that's what he wants to save his one shot for]

What skill does Loki have?

[miscakes]

After we separate Master Blue from it. [Just a gentle reminder.

He smirks, looking very pleased with himself.]

Tetrakarn.

[You know, that very annoying skill he used on the ship? That one. Stop hitting yourself.]

[survivaltricks]

[just]

[huffs an amused half-laugh]

Something defensive to match my offense, I see. That's not a bad choice.

[except stop looking so pleased with yourself while telling this to someone who had to figure out a way around those Tetrakarns used on the ship, you dick]

[miscakes]

[Nah? He's going to look as pleased as he wants, thanks.]

Anyone who attacks me will discover that things won't go exactly as they had hoped. [A pause, and he looks even more pleased.] But, I'm sure you have plenty of experience with that yourself.

[Stop! Hitting! Yourself!]

[survivaltricks]

[. . . . . . .]

If I hit you right now, you'll have to choose between either using it and making me hit myself while wasting your own spell, or taking it on the chin.

[DON'T INVITE A FISTFIGHT INTO THE CONVERSATION, AKECHI]

[miscakes]

You think you can land a hit on me?

[HE WILL INVITE A FIST FIGHT INTO THE CONVERSATION AND NO ONE CAN STOP HIM.]

[survivaltricks]

Absolutely.

[but he isn't making any actual moves to throw a punch]

[miscakes]

I'd like to see you try.

[will either of them make any actual moves after ??? yesterday ???]

[survivaltricks]

[WILL THROWING A PUNCH HAVE THE SAME RESULTS AS YESTERDAY???]

. . .

Now you're just goading me on on purpose.
