[OPEN] Death rays are a girl's best friend....

[ding_bots_are_done]

Who: Agatha Heterodyne and you
Where: Sagittarius Ward
What: A new arrival in the city takes charge of her situation
Warnings: SCIENCE! (Also action brackets because I am the laziest ever.)



[Agatha is blaming the strange dream on a side effect of lack of sleep and suddenly being shoved through Tweedle's ridiculous door. Right now the question is where that door has taken her. And what happened to the other three people who fell through it with her. Tweedle could be lost in time and space forever and she wouldn't care, but Violetta and Krosp she was a little concerned about. Not to mention the state of things in Mechanicsburg. But there wasn't much she could do about that now. First things first though, she needed a weapon....

So people who happen to be near some of the darkened warehouses may hear strange sounds coming from one of the alleyways. Clanking metal, odd whirring noises, crashing sounds. Those that dare to venture closer will find a woman holding what appears to be some sort of gun made from various bits of scrapped machinery. Her back is to the mouth of the alley, so she hasn't noticed anyone yet. She twists a small dial on the side of the gun and fire it at the trash dumpster. The alley is bathed in a bright flash of light, and when it fades the dumpster is nowhere to be found. Agatha nods in satisfaction.]

Could use some work, but it'll do for now.

Understood.

[Here's the hammer.]

May I ask why you are creating a death ray in the middle of an inhabited area?

[ding_bots_are_done]

Thanks.

[She takes the hammer and starts tapping one side of the device.]

Well, it's dangerous to wander around unarmed in unfamiliar territory. A girl has to protect herself.

[badluckhealer]

I...see, but all newcomers to the city are provided with the power to protect themselves already.

[Not that she ever uses it because fighting is Not Okay in her family.]

A death ray would appear to be overkill. ...it is also very ominously named.

[ding_bots_are_done]

Provided with the power...? What does that mean?

[badluckhealer]

...I assume you have not been informed about Personas yet.

[WHY IS SHE THE WELCOMING COMMITTEE THIS SUCKS. With a sigh, she mutters her Persona's name and calls out Armaiti. Just for a moment, of course - the pink creature disappears after revealing herself.]

Apparently they are guardian spirits or manifestations of our souls or...something along those lines... [Her eyebrows furrow. She doesn't know the specifics, that much is obvious.] They first awaken in times of extreme distress, and are easily called on afterward. Everyone who arrives in this city has one, it seems.

[ding_bots_are_done]

[Wow. Okay, she's never seen anything like that. Excuse her a minute while she stares.]

That's.... amazing...

[She looks between the persona and it's summoner a few times.]

Are... are you sure everyone has one?

[Because she feels like that would be something she'd notice.]

[badluckhealer]

I am certain. As I mentioned, it just is difficult to first - call out, I guess? Summon?

[...Let's see if she can't figure out that socializing thing! Well, some of it, anyway.]

...It was the same for me. I didn't know it was there until it first woke up. I do not know why it takes such specific conditions to activate it, but regardless, that...is how it is.
