We are the named and we are known

[lucetimods]

Who: All Draftees
What: Arriving at the dorms
When: 26th
Where: Dorms, location unknown
Summary: Dorm information is here. This is your room!
Rating: PG... we hope?

Your characters are shuffling off to their rooms. Each room has their name beside it and only they can open the door. People can only enter their room if they're allowed in (or they leave the door open). Characters will find any requested items in their room already. If they have a requested vehicle, there will be another door in their room that will take them to the hangar to inspect their equipment.

((Mod note: Extra draftees won't experience their Shift Incompatibility handicap in their dorms. :|a))

[... Laughs.]

I'm not surprised.

[emp3thy]

She asked me to help her but I wasn't an officer.

[breaks_destiny]

When? Back at your world?

[emp3thy]

Yeah.

[...seems like such a long time ago, now.]

[breaks_destiny]

[Keiichi hums lightly, wondering how long that must have felt for Minato, he has been here for at least two years now, right? Or close to that since he knew Rena from before Keiichi arrived and she had been here for a year already or so.]

Can I ask how it started? You having those Personas, or is it a power you have had since birth?

[emp3thy]

[That's a long story Keiichi, or well... it could be. He might not tell the full thing right now.]

Everyone has a different time when they 'awaken' to it... Mine was about a year before coming here.

[breaks_destiny]

[So unfair, Minato. Keiichi has told you tons of things about his world but you still won't open even a bit to him.]

I see...

[You're not someone who talks a lot but he notices that you basically ignored the first question. He could try to ask it again but if you did it on purpose it would just be a waste.]

How was the place where you lived before coming here?

[emp3thy]

[He WAS answering it... sort of :( Poke again if you're not satisfied K-1.]

It's nice. It's very urban... but you're on the water too. The city's built on the coast and a manmade island.

[breaks_destiny]

[He asked how it started, all Minato said was that people have different times when the power awakens and when his happened. He could poke but you should know already that he doesn't want you to force too much to talk about yourself if you don't want to. He knows that you wouldn't have told him about the Personas hadn't it been necessary because he saw one.]

So it covers both a port and an island? Sounds pretty big, but manmade islands... I hope no tsunamis happen there.

[emp3thy]

None I remember. There are typhoons. [but that's kind of a given in a coastal Japanese city]

[breaks_destiny]

Sounds annoying anyway. I don't think Hinamizawa had any serious issue with the weather, it was surrounded by a forest so summer was pretty humid, though sometimes the wet heat is the worst one. Back at Tokyo it was more like a dry heat.

[And he doesn't know about other seasons in Hinamizawa because... He wasn't there long enough to see them.]

[emp3thy]

It wasn't too bad. We had dry heat in summer, and wet winters. [he remembers the weather being mostly fine as a kid at least.]

[breaks_destiny]

Did you have arcade places? And ice-cream stores? You know, those places where there's mostly if not only ice-cream of any type and flavor you can think of!

[emp3thy]

[he nods.]

Arcades and karaoke... There's a sweets shop my friend Bebe liked. [and most girls.]

[breaks_destiny]

Niice, did you ever go to the arcades? Or the karaoke? How was it?

[Keiichi never got to go to places like those when he lived in the city, cram school didn't leave him enough time or friends for it. And Hinamizawa was too small, not even Okinomiya had those places. The closest was Mion's uncle games store, but most were board games and there was rarely people playing there like that unless it was a competition organized by the store.]

[emp3thy]

Sometimes in the evening, or after school when I didn't have clubs. It was fun.

[It was busy then. A lot different from Luceti, when most of the day is empty.]

[breaks_destiny]

Were there many games in the arcades? What type?

[emp3thy]

Quiz games, fighting games, horror games... all the usual kids. [he's looking a bit quizzically at you now though. Weren't arcades big in the 80s? Or maybe Keiichi is too early for that.] Have you been to one before?

[breaks_destiny]

Ah... Actually I never had time for that when I lived in the city. And Hinamizawa had none of them, the closest thing was Mion's uncle's games store but it was just board games and people didn't go there often to play there. Most people just went to buy what they wanted.

[Didn't he already tell you that he had never gone around and play all day with a friend? Or you assumed he only meant on a free day?]

[emp3thy]

I see... [yes, Keiichi, he assumed you had some kind of social life even if it was very infrequent.]

[breaks_destiny]

[Social life? He didn't know what that was until he moved to Hinamizawa.]

What else did you do? What clubs were you in?

[emp3thy]

Besides track and Student Council, the Photography Club and Fashion Club.

[...yes, Fashion Club. Feel free to question that one.]

[breaks_destiny]

And what did you do on those? What does a Fashion Club do exactly?

[Fashion Club sounds strange, but he's a bit too much into getting to know what's a normal teen life at the city to stop to wonder about that.]

[emp3thy]

Well, that's what Bebe called it. He liked sewing, so he used the school machines and I helped sometimes.

[breaks_destiny]

Oh, so you made clothes? That's useful. Did you travel around for the Photography Club? Or stayed on the city? Did you go around with the other club members to take pictures or something?

[Definitively, this sounds more and more as if Keiichi has never had any kind of social life before Hinamizawa. His eager to learn tone doesn't help.]
