Persona - The True Self

Hey look! I made an IC post that wasn't actually shitty! YAY!

Persona - The True Self

Mako Moritomi//Yoshida Book Cafe

==~==

Mako was about to answer in the affirmative to having his coffee as soon as possible, but he stopped as he noticed the suspiciously-familiar girl walking away from Sato's table, leaving it conspicuously... empty, for now. An opportunity, perhaps? Mako's brows knit in consternation as he considered the propriety of what it was he was considering doing. True, there was an open seat, but it was rather improper to simply walk over and invite yourself to sit down, much less when you barely knew the person in question, and EVEN LESS considering the subject matter of what it was he wanted to talk about. Truly, it would be better for everyone if he simply saved this conversation for a later date, when it wouldn't be so--

"Er, I'll take them both at the same time, thanks- I have something I need to take care of first, excuse me." He began to stand up, his face impassive, which was impressive considering the turmoil he'd just flung his mental state into.

What the hell am I doing?? He straightened out his jacket, attempted to swallow his nervousness (Why exactly am I nervous...?), gave a brisk nod to the waitress serving him, then took the few quick steps over to Sato's table.

"Sato Hashimoto, yeah?" he said, his voice wavering slightly. "You remember me? Mako Moritomi? I was just..." What was he doing, exactly...? He swallowed again. "Just concerned about how you were holding up. After that... the thing. That one day. Last week...?" He paused again before continuing.

"Just... letting you know that, if you need to talk about it or anything, I'd be happy to just listen."

What the fuck am I saying??

I might run a roll call again after this dungeon to make sure we don't have people dropping off.

If any of you are feeling a wane in personal interest though, do let me know.

@Sho Minazuki

If not having a personal computer hasn't stopped me, then I don't think I'll be succumbing to disinterest any time soon. Besides, Mako hasn't even gotten his Persona yet. I'd literally be giving up before I even got to the good parts.

*crawls in from no net land a plops down* apologies folks, I lost net due to issues with my modem and it wasn't fixed until today. What did I miss? >_>

@Fallenreaper

Reaper! *flying glomp*

You haven't missed a lot. There's an Icarus post for you to respond to, but that do be all. Welcome back, it's good to see you!

Persona!

Perfectly encapsulates everything I assume made Israfil so hard to design...

I know that feeling well. No worries~

Mako nodded at the girl's assessment of the situation- much the same as his own had been, really. Perhaps he was just looking for confirmation. In any case, they were correct- there was really nothing else he could do to help the situation than wait, as going in anyway would likely just make things more complicated. Besides which, it wasn't really the girl he was going to check up on, anyway, much as he sympathized with her plight. Yeah, trying to talk to Sato about... that, with so many people nearby, probably isn't going to help matters at all.

In any case, he perked up somewhat as the waitress mentioned ordering something on the side- he did often like a pastry or some such with his coffee- and then more when she mentioned what kinds of food. Sushi and shrimp? In a cafe? That's... original. How could I possibly turn that down? He smiled to the waitress.

"Well, now. You've piqued my interest, certainly. Do you guys have spicy tuna here? I'd like some of that, if you wouldn't mind."

I'll get to drawing Personas again next week, for those of you waiting. Also Mako's was most difficult to design because it's hard to make trumpets not look silly.

@Sho Minazuki

I apologize for that, by the by.

It's your baby and I'm not going to tell you how to raise it. That being said what I liked (What I really liked) was that every member of the team was a deeply flawed individual in one respect or another. Officially it's the lack of definitive shortcomings with our soon-to-be-added runner that I'm most wary of.

I'm going to give our resident shaman/face a nudge and see if she's still up for playing--then nudge myself a bit for good measure.

@Beach Burrito

I could make him more flawed? I don't want to make this uncomfortable for anyone. That said, Reaper isn't going to be good at both things, so I'm not gonna be stepping on anyone's toes, I hope. In hindsight, writing "gunslinger" is pretty non-indicative of what I was trying to do with Reaper. Perhaps I should change my CS to reflect that... Mostly, though, he'll be flinging spells rather than other things.

I'm using errata ideas for his concept, so he has to either take hits in adept or Mage as he progresses. He chose to take hits in adept.

All that said, my policy toward making character sheets is not to show your hand too soon. There's a lot of potential for character building that I don't want to jam into a CS. My characters are dynamic things, they grow, they change, they break. If you're worried that Reaper's not flawed enough for your game, just wait. I'm very mean to my characters. It's more fun that way~

Yeah, it looks like we might have two missing people actually.

Wheeeeeeeeeeee.

Whoooooooooooo.
