You might feel a little out of your league. After they took you into a room where a series of robots cleaned and dressed you up, you were all put inside a limousine together. There appears to be a lot of drinks inside, but go easy on the rum! You need to keep your wits about you soon. Your driver is one of the many men in black from the Government. You are all members of a rich family; it says so on your fake entrance cards. No need to wait in line like the other peons, oh no, you get to come in as guests of honor.

Your mission is Calculated Infiltration.

And not just anywhere, but Nyx's Night Club! The hottest nightclub, it also requires a strict dressing code. According to the Government's Task force, the source of the disturbance detected in the sector is in the lower levels. Unfortunately, it is heavily guarded and with a lot of civilians nearby, quite possibly drunk, you cannot just waltz in. First step will be locating your double agent and contact who will supply you with a password. Using your COMP system, you should be able to locate them in the large crowd that has gathered tonight. No name, and no clue or idea who they are. Simply that your audio function will register a match when you do find them.

Of course, this is Nyx's Nightclub! Like everything else here, it's got a rather shady side. The Brothel and Drug Cartel below are your true targets. Word is that one of the heads of Anoli is a honored guest, and that the bar's owner is a sympathizer.

As in every city, there is a fine line between tolerance and allowing your foes to go around as they please. Whatever they are conducting down there, it had the sirens going off. You need to find out why, exactly.


Lucky you.

As you enter the Club, music starts blaring into your ears, as lasers, lights, drinks, and people dancing in cages surround you in a visual and audio orgy. It's hard to see, but you need to stay in character, and find your contact. Once one of you does, you can proceed on.

[OOC : For now, you can start threads trying to find their contact, OR there reaction to being there. MINGLE AS A TEAM IF YOU WANT :3. As with every log like this, ONCE THEY GET TO THE LOWER LEVELS, you are free to start your own thread and have your characters stop swarm of monsters on your own. Don't forget to write your character's Persona awakening later on as well!]

"I'll be keeping an eye on mine." It was impressive that those devices would be able to pick up the contact's voice despite all the noise, but there wasn't much that surprised him anymore in the way of technology. After meeting Aigis, everything else was pretty much old hat, really.

He caught a glimpse of her glancing at the other couples stationed around the room and cleared his throat softly, trying to will his cheeks to cool. "I think we're blending just fine," he murmured, choosing to leave the 'as is' unspoken. No reason to make the both of them even more uncomfortable. "Interested in a drink? If I'm supposed to be some rich hotshot, I should make sure I'm showing you a good time -- right?"

The phrase sounded strange when he heard it in his own voice. Clearly, espionage was not his strong point.

"As will I," small talk. Even about the mission, it was good and helping to calm her nerves. She relaxed beside him, taking a deep breath, trying not to look too stern and more into the role they were supposed to be taking. The couples around them could do their own thing, and Mitsuru and Akihiko could do their own. Not everyone here was from a rich and spoiled family after all.

"Who says that you're supposed to take that role?" The teasing is awkward. She's chided Akihiko before over many things, even sometimes managing a quick quip or two. But even though there's not wavering in her voice, it still feels so off to her.

"I wouldn't mind a drink though."

The teasing took him by surprise, though only briefly, and he chuckled nervously a moment later, though he put a great deal of effort into making his smile appear more confident, as though he felt at home there. They'd poked fun at each other plenty of times in the past, but in this place, he felt just about anything could be made awkward.

"I just thought I'd play the part that went with the suit." His smile came a bit easier that time. "Any preference, or do you trust me to surprise you?"

The latter probably wouldn't have been wise, considering he felt protein powder was appropriate seasoning for all occasions.
