Who: Fumi Kanno, Minako Arisato, Even
Where: Von Braun mansion, Pisces District
Summary: Fumi gets her first readings on a Persona awakening
Warnings: SCIENCE. Also action tags because I'm lazy.

[Fumi hasn't been this openly excited in quite some time.  She's finally managed to find a willing participant for her research - research she'd started in another world and had been working on ever since coming to this one.  There would be much more to do and learn after this little experiment was over, and her head is already swirling with the possibilities of it all, but for now she's forced herself to focus completely on the current moment.  Her personal equipment is set up in the abandoned von Braun mansion, former home of one Doc Emmett Brown.  Fumi had recently moved in after the demon attacks, finding it rather suitable for her own purposes and a convenient place to move some of her work while the JP's headquarters and the MAGI building are under repair.

Leading her lab assistant Minako into the house along with their current test subject and future coworker Even, Fumi escorts the two of them down to the basement of the house, where she has her equipment set up and wired into the house's circuit breaker.  There's some additional power present in the form of standing backup generators as well, considering the sheer bulk of the machine she's assembled.  It looks for all the world like some sort of Frankenstein's monster of medical mechanica, the result of various parts of an EEG monitor, an fMRI tube, and a CT scanning device all cannibalized and fused together into one device intended to provide as complete a picture as possible of a subject's physical state of being.]

Well, then... here we are.

[....maaaybe a little too much.

But Minako hands over the Evoker. It'll be better if he pulls the trigger himself.]

Here you are, Even-san. Fire when ready!

[Okay, Minako's enjoying it a little too much as well.]

[Even nearly jumps again at the idea of having someone shoot him, even if it is with something that he's just seen demonstrated as perfectly safe - but he accepts the Evoker with a nod.]

...Very well.

[Shakily, he raises the Evoker to his head. Despite his best efforts, he's not the calmest here - he's breathing steadily, but his pulse is far less so. Still, he's not going to back down now. He's not going to lose face in front of these two. If that girl can do it, why can't he?

Glass shatters. Blue light flares.
After everything his heart's been through - it calls out the power that lies within.

Even's Persona awakens.

He looks at it in a state of shock.]

[Fumi isn't even watching what's happening with Even on the other side of the room. She's far too interested in the readings she's getting right now. The smile on her face grows ever wider as she watches the various charts, graphs, and equations flicking by on her monitor, and her fingers fly across the keyboard as she takes down notations to study later.]

Fascinating. Elevated heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature... and brain activity in every cortex. Full activation of every nervous system cluster the body has.
