[Open] I'm standing on the outside

[papillonmagique]

Who: Zoe Gallais and OPEN
Where: Aquarius district, Tuesday night
Summary: Zoe thinks it's time to awaken her Persona. So wandering out during the 13th Hour on her own is clearly the best plan.
Warnings: Demon fightings, persona awakenings and bratty mage alert.


[Zoe had only been here for a couple of days, but she is the impatient type. And she had watched how the 13th hour occurred and she knows how to fight and she has her lance with her, so it wasn't like she was going in completely unprepared.

She may have overestimated herself, however, especially when she came across a group of these monsters, and she was stuck using her lance to push them back more than attacking. But she had to keep trying, she had to- ]

- Come on! [And then her Persona appears in a flash of light above her, and takes care of some of the monsters with a few Kouha's. Zoe just stares at the sparkly rainbow butterfly for a moment.]

P-Petit Arc-en-ciel! So that's where you were! ... In my head. [Blink. And then she shrugs, shifting into a battle stance again. There is still a large group of monsters left, so she's starting to regret going out on her own now...]

They're likely both mostly empty...

[papillonmagique]

Well, it depends on how much you want or need to move.

[silvercoins]

I can move in with you.

[papillonmagique]

All right, we can do that... Hmm, and you can have the bed tonight, until we can get another one tomorrow.

[silvercoins]

I'll sleep on the floor.

[papillonmagique]

No, I will. I don't mind and you need to sleep better, after all.

[silvercoins]

I'll sleep on the floor, Zoe. It's your apartment.

[papillonmagique]

[Just gonna pout and cross her arms.] And it's also your apartment now, don't forget.

[silvercoins]

I couldn't take the bed from you.

[papillonmagique]

And why not?

[silvercoins]

I'd feel bad about it, is why.

[papillonmagique]

Even though I said you could have it and I really don't mind sleeping on the floor, since I've slept on worse?

[silvercoins]

I'm used to sleeping on the ground.

[papillonmagique]

... You aren't going to let me win this, are you?

[silvercoins]

Not in the slightest.

[papillonmagique]

[Zoe pouts and crosses her arms, staring at him for a few long moments.

Then she sighs and glances away.] Tsk, fine, I'll let you have this one.

[silvercoins]

Thank you, Zoe. [And for some reason he smiles at that.]

[papillonmagique]

[The smile gets a surprised look, before she smiles back.] ... Hmm, you should smile more often.

[silvercoins]

Eh? Do you think so?

[papillonmagique]

I really do think so. You have a nice smile.

[silvercoins]

I think that I could manage that...

[papillonmagique]

You really do?

[silvercoins]

If you will it, it is no dream.

...That one's a little after my time. [But he's well-read.]

[papillonmagique]

[Blink, blink. And then she grins.]

Ah, but I like it, it's a nice phrase... Do you read a lot?

[silvercoins]

Frequently. I've always liked to be knowledgeable.
