Naoya - Open to All singsforsouls October 3 2011, 16:15:23 UTC
[ Normal people would probably be a little disturbed to look out the window of their new lodging and see tentacles whipping through the streets.

Naoya was not one of those people. He simply finished his bite of dinner, took a swallow of water, and went to pick up his weaponry from where he had set it by the door.

If anyone can hear anything over the yelling and the crashing of buildings, they might hear a dakkadakkadakka sound. The first tactic of monster slaying is obviously to aim a machine gun at it and pull the trigger. ]

[This is a protag with a sword. This is a protag running to make sure his friends are okay, but at the sound of gunfire he ducks down and away and--

Comes face to face with Naoya.

A pause.

He lowers his sword and glances over at the tentacle for a moment.]

...

[Sup?]

[ For a split second the muzzle of Naoya's machine gun twitches towards Minato. Then he realizes who it is and it returns to being pointed at the tentacle. Don't scare him like that.

He gives the other boy a calm nod and takes the moment to switch out the magazine. 'Sup? ]

[Minato takes it all in for a moment. And then nods in return and lifts his sword.]

Are you alright here?

So far. Does this happen often?

[ They need a moment to talk; Naoya does not know the city well, nor know if there are certain defenses set up. He does not want to be working against a system already in place in a time like this.

So he straightens up, bringing his free hand up in front of himself. ]

Persona!

[ A blue wind spins about the boy, his eyes lighting up as he releases Aramaiti. The Judgement Persona comes into being above him, piercing the tentacle with her magic and immobilizing it. ]

[It's impressive, but Minato doesn't do anything but note this in the back of his mind.

...

...]

No, not often. The defense force should help take care of this, but--

[...he needs to contact hubert and go set that up, huh? Busy busy busy.]

Defense Force?

[ After double-checking to make sure the tentacle is really actually still, Naoya turns to look at Minato. ]

[Nod nod nod.]

A coalition of volunteers. Hubert-san runs it, along with myself.

[Just a matter of fact explanation.]

What should I know?

[ Will they get in his way or will he get in theirs? ]

[He nods once, indicating his understanding, before explaining.]

The force is used to working with others not in it. There should be no conflicts.

All right.

[ A nod and a pause. Then a gentle: ]

Thank you.

[Mm. He is about to nod his understanding when highly tuned instincts warn him to get out of the way.

So he doze, lunging to one side, barely avoiding the thrashing of the tentacle.]

[ Damn! Naoya is automatically back in the game, his instincts not allowing him to be otherwise. He spins around and unleashes another volley of bullets as he calls Illuyanka to the forefront of his mind. ]

[Minato is thinking along the same lines, but it is Beelzebub he calls forth. Whipping the Evoker to the side of his head, he fires, watching with satisfaction as the high-level ziodyne crashes down on the tentacle.]

[ Huh. Devil. That is not Minato's Arcana, but the idea is not a surprise to him. What is is that when he focuses, he realizes that for some reason, his mind whispers Fool to him in reference to the boy himself.

He's never met a Fool anything.

He can ask about that later. With a cry of "Go for it!" he lets the World snake free to lash out, crushing the tentacle with a physical attack. ]

[Minato's having a similar moment. He has never encountered a Persona that whispers to his mind 'world'. World world world.

But he doesn't have time to question it. He merely pulls out the Evoker again, lashing out with Messiah this time. The tentacle is frozen solid...and he nods to Naoya.

A physical attack could shatter it to pieces.]
