How soon can we expect the IC?

His mouth was slightly ajar, eyes confusedly focused on the purple haired girl’s shameless bravado. God, her Stand-thing was right there. Did she want to go easy on the shadowy Hawaiian shirt guy? That was stupid. There was no remaining shred of humanity in that monster. Any hostiles needed to be taken out immediately.

The girl’s kicks looked strong enough to shatter anyone’s ribs under normal circumstances, but the shadow was completely unfazed. He glanced down at his suddenly inadequate dusters.

So much for ”backing you up”, he frowned inwardly.

The girl was still using kicks instead of retreating and forming a more effective strategy. But it was too late. Halfway through the girl’s landing, heat started building near the shadow, expanding and transforming into a miniature sun. She wouldn’t make it out unscathed.

This scene seemed familiar. It was the same girl too. Funny, she could knock her opponents out with a single blow, but this was the second time he felt he had to save her.

She’s a fucking psychopath, she should be fine.

She looked like she had the physical ability to evade the shadow’s fireball. Land on the left foot, push out to the right, throw your weight to the ground. She was going to be fine.

But what if she wasn’t?

Thoughts were too familiar, feelings were exactly the same as they were when he heard that yelp and looked up from those unconscious students. She should be fine, she was going to be fine.

Why couldn’t he accept that?

Because if there was even a 1% chance she would get hurt because of his inaction, he couldn’t let it slide.

Thoughts were getting clearer.

That’s right. He hated seeing people get hurt, even more than he hated being hurt himself. When did he forget that, why did he forget?

I wanted to stop hurting. I was so scared. I would do anything for it to stop.

He moved without a second thought, lunging straight at the purple hai- no, Tatsuya. Everything came back.

A simple test; can you state your name?

He remembered chasing after them. Was it because of the fear of her wrath or genuine worry that he ran? Perhaps both?

Quit playing around. Who sprints across the entire school campus just ‘cos he’s afraid of one girl’s opinion?

A simple test; can you state your name?

She was mere centimetres from his outstretched hand. The fireball came closer.

I am Akihito Irimi. And I need to stop being such a cowardly ass.

His hands made contact, one with Tatsuya’s torso, the other with a glowing blue card.

“PERSONA.”

One body hit the ground.

“Metis!”

The second one followed suit. A different body materialised, humanoid but definitely not human. An elegant purple figure framed in a majestic golden cloak pointed her halberd at the monster.

“Garu!” The command escaped his lips as easily as a favourite song would.

A monstrous wave of wind erupted towards the shadow. But he didn’t look to see if the attack had any effect. Akihito’s gaze was fixed on Tatsuya. She was on her side, dazed but unharmed. Relief set in. Then pain. It seared through his body, consuming every part of his consciousness. He clawed pointlessly at the ground, searching for any sort of relief. His back, the pain was radiating from his back. It hurt, it hurt, IT HURT. Was the heat from his injuries or were the flames unextinguished? It didn’t matter, he was powerless against it. He lay on the ground; teeth clenched and tears escaping from the corners of his eyes. Yet through all the torment, there was a tiny seed of satisfaction. She was safe, he could take pride in that.
planning on doing a grizzled tavern keeper character, if there's still room for more

@demonspade64

Would you like Aki to dropkick you out of the way of the blazing inferno, or does Rena have it covered?

EDIT: Just to clarify, I do not intend to have him literally dropkick Rena, I just meant get her out of the way somehow.
Is the Bow and Arrow going to have a big part in this story?
My profile should be up sometime in the next 24 hours

Name
Milene Laporte
Gender
Female
Age
17
Nationality
Born in France, currently based in Melbourne, Australia
Element
Fire
Role
Smart Guy

Appearance
Long straight bronze hair, dark brown eyes, pale-ish skin that tans during summer. Stands at around 167cm. Dress code for her school demands that it is tied up into a ponytail, but she usually wears it like that outside of school for convenience anyway. Average build, not exactly toned, but has fairly muscular legs from cycling. Wears a constant pokerface, expression doesn’t change much apart from occasional chuckles and eyebrow raises.

Milene doesn’t put much effort or money into her appearance but still barely passes as “not unfashionable”. Wears clothes that are easy to move around in, usually jeans, sneakers, a simple t-shirt and light jacket. Doesn’t own much clothing and has one particular jacket she seems to prefer. Is pretty much immune to weather whether it be heat or cold so her outfit doesn’t change much throughout the year.

Personality
From the outset, Milene is blunt person. She states the facts as she sees them but doesn’t go out of her way to disparage someone, though she often accidentally makes scathing remarks that alienate people. She prefers reason over emotion as a way of figuring things out and can easily logically disarm most people in an argument. Most people see her as condescending because of her curt manner and detached wit. She doesn’t mind though, “different strokes for different folks” as she likes to say. Laidback and generally excels in school, though her grades in history are a bit lacking. Despite her unassuming outer personality, Milene’s thought process can be quite vivid and imaginative.

Her utilitarian mindset may put her at odds with some people. Her sense of justice may be a bit stunted by this, as she’s a very “needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few” sort of person. She seeks efficiency in everything she does, be it in her speech or school work. Her extremely colloquial speech is a result of this, though she’s not one for talking much in the first place.

A fault of her personality is that she tends to judge heavily upon first impressions. She doesn’t give respect until the person has proven deserving of it. But when she does approve of a person, her loyalty is astounding. If someone is deemed worthy of it, she will support them with everything she’s got. Unless you handle her well, she won’t be very cooperative.

Slight fear of knives and sharp objects. Unnatural fondness of Skittles.

Backstory
Milene was born in Toulouse and lived there until the age of 9. Her parents worked at a prominent aircraft engineering company that sustained their fairly comfortable upper middle class lifestyle. Apart from an accident in the tool shed that led to her fear of sharp objects, Milene’s life in France was uneventful. When not exploring the town on her bike, she was perusing the contents of her father’s bookshelf, which mostly consisted of scientific journals and books on mechanical engineering. At first she only read them to admire the pictures, but as she got older she managed to grasp the language and key ideas.

Thanks to her parents’ jobs, they moved to Australia. Her classmates were initially curious about the newcomer (the accent certainly helped) but when her antisocial tendencies became apparent, the interest soon dissolved. For high school, Milene’s parents had her enrolled into a private girl’s school where she was finally lucky enough to make friends and put her French to use in class. When her parents declared that they were moving back, Milene chose to stay in Melbourne in a rented apartment, where she currently resides.
