[Open] I'm standing on the outside

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...]

I would be honored to teach you.

[papillonmagique]

Really? Thank you, Judas, it is very much appreciated!

[silvercoins]

Peter or Andrew would be far better than I at it...

[papillonmagique]

Oh, I'm sure you're just as good, Judas! Maybe even better.

[silvercoins]

I doubt that. But, it's kind of you to say so...

[papillonmagique]

[She grins at him, before bowing her head slightly.] Oh, it's nothing. And I look forward to you teaching me.

[silvercoins]

[Then he has to bow his head lower, of course.]

[papillonmagique]

[Blink. And then she snorts quietly.] What are you bowing for?

[silvercoins]

I'm not sure.

[papillonmagique]

An automatic reaction, then?

[silvercoins]

Force of habit.

[papillonmagique]

That when someone bows to you, you have to bow lower?

[silvercoins]

It's a sign of respect.

[papillonmagique]

[Blink. Thinking over that annnd...] Oh! That's something from Japan, right?

[silvercoins]

Yes... well, I've been living there for a while now.

[papillonmagique]

And considering this place apparently resembles a city in Japan, it was probably good to pick up on a few habits.

[silvercoins]

I wonder why that is.

[papillonmagique]

No clue... Though according to some shows and stories I've heard, most weird things tend to happen in Japan.

[silvercoins]

I'd say that seems unlikely, but Jesus Christ and Buddha specifically chose it for their vacation.

[papillonmagique]

Exact- [Wait what.]

... Who are vacationing in Japan?

[silvercoins]

Jesus and Buddha are roommates on vacation in Japan.

[papillonmagique]

[Blink. Blink.] That... Sounds like it could be the basis of some sort of comedy show.

[silvercoins]

Why? [Headtilt.]

[papillonmagique]

Because it sounds like they could get into all sorts of shenanigans and such.

[silvercoins]

I'm not sure it would be respectful of me to say that.
