The Persona Game [Closed]
Who: Ayumu Narumi & Friends
Where: MAGI Building
Summary: The Persona game is attempted by a new arrival
Warnings: Philemon shows up in this one. SCIENCE?!
The building had no markings or a fancy sign. For all intent and purposes it looked like an unmarked building in a row of similar brethren. Most civilians would pass by without knowing anything was particularly unique about it. After all, the best place for hiding was right in plain view. Two-sided windows which mean you couldn't quite see what was inside, the building itself rose about six stories high and had a single door, located on the front.
Once inside, there was a man waited behind a desk, blocking the pathway leading to what looked like a metallic door. The desk itself was without fanfare or much attention either; just a single computer, a small potted plant, a small stash of paper that looked like it was never used and a ground-line telephone that was almost laughable in the age of COMP systems. He was dressed in a suit; as with most typical Japanese businessmen. The strange black bumps on the ceiling were undoubtedly hiding cameras, making it impossible to know what they were looking at.
Once someone got in, he looked up at them, his face perfectly neutral, voice gruff and demanding an answer as soon as possible. This time there wasn't an army of people trying to barge in, after all.
"Name?"

"The south, you said?" He makes his way over to the south circle, stopping there in the middle.

Even something as simple as where to stand have certain rules, in order to maximise the flow of energy and affinity. Otherwise, there may be...accidents, so to speak.
Miyako swiftly walked over towards the northern circle and stopped in the middle. She looked at the other players, waiting.
Sorry for lateness!
"Okay just give them a few minutes while they apply some machines on you to monitor your vitals..." As she talked, a few other scientists came forth and began to place several items on various parts of their bodies, from the heart to the head. When they were done, they nodded and went back to the deep end of the observation. The lights dimmed again and they were just left with the candles lighting up the room.
"Alright," she began, somewhat sheepishly. "I wish I could say that the ritual is a serious of much more fantastic words, but it's actually quite simple. Just follow me lead and do exactly what I do."
Stepping out of her circle, she called forth.
"Persona, persona, please come here!"
When she got to there Narumi was, she stepped inside his circle and gave him a gentle push with a single hand to where he needed to go.

The 'ritual' was something he'd already been told about, but here and now, with all these elaborate preparations and effects, it seemed almost ludicrously understated and a bit silly. Still, silly or not, when he's pushed forward by Maiko he steps out of the circle.
Here goes nothing.
"Persona, persona, please come here!"
no subject
"Persona, persona, please come here!"
His voice is cheerful, and he calls it out in almost a sing-song tone. Silly it may be, but he clearly doesn't have any problems with it.

It's her turn now, and she started walking over towards Maiko's circle after Hizumi entered hers.
"Persona, persona, please come here!"
In contrast to Hizumi's, her voice was firm and clear. The steps may be different, but this was just another summoning ritual for a Hotsuin.

"..."
Nothing but the sounds of silence.
The scientist seemed disappointed and let out a sigh.
"...well I guess that didn't work. Sometimes there's no reaction, Perhaps we could--"
Suddenly above them the air began to swirl, the electrical instruments moving widely as the very ceiling tore in half. Despite being underground, they could see a bluish sky reaching right into the stars above. That window began to crack, as she continued to talk to them nonchalantly, paying no attention to it. No she...didn't seem to notice.
Suddenly some of the stars began to explode as lightening seeped out and moved all around them, before hitting the other three summoners right into the chest. The feeling was not unlike getting a punch to the gut.
The last thing they would remember is that they would feel very light-headed, before their bodies gave way and they all fell to the floor.
