Mako raised an eyebrow at the wording used by Igor and his attendant. So... this was supposed to be some kind of dining room, then? Interesting choice for... whatever this place actually was. After the menus were passed around, Mako took a critical eye of the one in his hands. The True Self... Conqueror's Buffet... Mako hummed quietly in thought. 

[color=0076a3][i]So... these aren't really meals at all, then. They're trials. A way to get stronger.[/i][/color] Mako felt at the Persona in his being. He could tell it was powerful, but the opposition they were up against was powerful as well. Especially if there were many more Shadows at, or above, the level of his own. It wasn't a bad idea to get more powerful, as well. Mako thought about what Igor said, that they could come and go as they pleased. 

[color=0076a3][i]Ah... so that's what that key is for.[/i][/color] Mako smiled as his eyesight began to dim, as he returned to the real world. [color=0076a3][i]I'm looking forward to it...[/i][/color]

Mako checked his phone again as he headed toward the "abandoned" warehouse. Apparently, there was more to the Mirror World than just their Shadows' domains or the Velvet Room. Something called, "Seto." Boy, that could get confusing quickly. Ah, well. He'd find out what that all entailed when he got there. As he entered, he was somewhat taken aback by the other two people there. It wasn't entirely unprecedented- the Mirror World wasn't exactly a romantic getaway location, and going in with just the two of them would be a bad idea, but... still. It would make this next part less embarrassing. Mako entered the warehouse fully, walking over to Sato and catching him in a short, but firm hug. 

[color=0076a3]"Good to see you,"[/color] he whispered in his ear, just before pulling away. He glanced around at the other two in the warehouse at present. It looked like Ryan, and... one of the newer investigators- he didn't think he'd met him yet. He bowed slightly in their direction.

[color=0076a3]"Nice to see you both. Are we all going in together, then?"[/color]
