Hello stranger.

Although stranger may not be the correct way to refer to you now, huh?

Guess I just wanted to check in and see if:

1. You're here.
2. You wanted to hang out.

I'm trying the social thing.

Hello.

1. I'm here
2. Sure

Doing good so far.

Not really doing good, but I appreciate your support regardless. I'll get there in time.

Alright, though, hanging out. With food sound good? Eating is a pretty fun past time here, and there's a lot of interesting things.

Were you doing poorly before?

Food definitely sounds good. I love eating. Have you tried ramen?

In some ways. Especially when I first got here!

Talking to people isn't hard for me. I'm a nice guy and I've known humans for well...a long time. A really long time. We won't get into my age. But I don't get like non-work time with people very much. There was a lot of human things I had to figure out.

A work in progress.

I've never had ramen, no. I'm assuming it's good or you wouldn't be recommending it. Unless you're pranking me.

You remind me of a friend, my world's Thanatos. Even if he kind of already knew how to act human, he wasn't very good at it.

A lot of us humans aren't very good at it. So you shouldn't worry about it.

Ramen is very good. It's a noodle soup dish, usually served with meat and some veggies. There's different broths you can try.

Do you know how to use chopsticks? If not, they should have spare forks.

Maybe part of being human is being bad at being human.

Who'd have thought.

Oh - it sounds good... but what's chopsticks?

[ That's a no. ]

To err is human, or so the saying goes.

A kind of utensil that's mostly used in Asian countries. I'll show you at the ramen house.

To forgive is divine, I heard.

Haha - kidding, kidding.

Oh, that's interesting. Makes sense that I wouldn't have used them before, being from Greece. And that's ignoring the whole god bit.

I'll definitely need to be shown. Because I guarantee my mental image of chopsticks is 100% incorrect.

I'm sure it was. Anyway, when do you want to go? I know a place around here that's almost as good as Hagakure back home.

I'm ready whenever. I don't work often or anything like that, so I have a lot of free time.

Hey, Minato. So, it turns out I was able to get my house here.

And there's plenty of space.

So there's a room here for you if you want it.

It turns out? Were you that surprised or something? :P

But yeah, I would like to. It would be like old times, right? Maybe I can get Koromaru too. The other me has her Koro-chan, after all.

I am surprised. It was a house I had owned last time I was here. It was something to get it back, but I have it back.

Mostly like old times.

There's a few missing pieces, but I'm pretty glad to have at least one. It'd be nice if Koromaru were there, too.

You were here before too? Hm, apparently I was too but... I don't remember it.

Well, I don't have a lot to pack up but it still might take a couple trips by myself. Want to come help when I got everything ready?

Yeah, I remember when I was. You know...I can't remember if I met you here...I only remember back when we were bonded.

Yeah - I can come help. Just let me know when and I'll make a point.

I'm pretty relieved that you said yes. It is weird to live alone after being in Aefenglom.

Well, you're the only one who would know. I only remember you in Aefenglom.

Is it? Hm... I guess I understand how you feel. I was the same way before I got to Iwatodai dormitory. Now it's weird being by myself.

Hah - yes.

Before being there, I wouldn't have minded being alone. But once you get used to the Bonds, the absence of one is odd.

Plus, you know, I actually like your company.

Yeah, you're right. I think I was already used to it though, once the Dark Hour was over and we no longer had any need for our Persona, I lost the bonds that came with them. Not that it mattered, since it was those bonds that allowed me to do what I needed to do.

I like your company too. (°▽°)

Give me a couple days and I should have everything packed and ready to go. I need to talk to Akechi anyway, since he's been staying with me here at the inn.

Ah - yeah. You had those Persona. I didn't know that they were a part of a bond with someone. Shinji gave me the information he could but...you know, he's kind of an idiot for all that I care about him.

Ah - good move. I'll wait for you to call. Or text. Or whatever, I'm around and easy to identify.

True, but he also wasn't aware of the bonds either, so I'd cut him some slack. I was known as a wildcard, so while Shinji only had one Persona to use, I had up to twelve at a time and I could switch them around on the fly if I wanted. They got stronger the more I bonded with my friends and others.

Yes, you are. :P

Nahhhh. Never cutting him slack. He's still an idiot. Just assume it's said affectionately or something. So you were special then? Interesting.

I don't think I'll ever fully understand, but...I get at least enough to know what you mean by difference.

And it's a blessing and a curse to be easy to find.

It's definitely something not easily explained unless I could show you.

Hehe, well for now, it's a blessing.
