Persona 3 Project Week 2
Okay, so this meeting in the door. Apparently they’ve got some sort of “school club” where they fight “shadows” during the “Dark Hour” with our “personas” (trust me, it wouldn’t make sense to you if I tried to explain it). They let me join their “club”, and gave me a fake gun to shoot myself in the head with. Then I heard a weird voice and saw a tarot card, and was told that I apparently established the “Fool” Social Link. Went to bed after the meeting, and that kid from before was in my room during the Dark Hour. He said something about “the end” coming, and then disappeared.
Came downstairs the evening on the 19th, and Akihiko introduced us to… Junpei? Apparently he’s “one of us” and is gonna live in the dorm, too. Akihiko was all excited, ‘cuz apparently we’re goin somewhere called “Tartarus” tomorrow. The Chairman’ll give us the details, apparently.
During lunch on the 20th, Mitsuru came into our classroom and told us to meet in the lounge after school. At the meeting, we were told we would be going to Tartarus, and Mitsuru and Akihiko lead us… to school? However, as soon as the Dark Hour hit, our school turned into… wow, that thing is CRAZY! Our school is some huge creepy tower! We got inside, and I was apparently nominated as leader, but before we could go up the stairs, I saw a weird door. Hey, it’s the Velvet Room. Nice, easy access. Mitsuru only let us explore the first floor, though. I was kinda disappointed, because of how pathetically easy it was. We cleared the floor and went back downstairs. Mitsuru congratulated it, then I heard that voice again. Aparently I’m at rank 2 of “The Fool” now.
Tuesday morning, met Kenji, a classmate of mine, before going to morning assembly. Mitsuru spoke, but a lot of it went over my head. Okay, most of it. During classes later, I SOOOO wanted to fall asleep, but I actually stayed awake. Somehow. Not sure how. Didn’t have anything to do after school, so I wandered around. Got outside, and saw Akihiko, who told me and Junpei to meet him at the police station in the mall. Okay, I guess. We got there, and apparently one of the cops is willing to sell us weapons. That’s useful. So’s the 5,000 yen Akihiko gave us. Decided to go to Tartarus that night, and got up to the fifth floor.
Met up with Kenji again before school, and after school, he invited me out to ramen. We hung out, then I heard that voice again, saying that I’d established the “Magician” Social Link.
On Thursday, I decided to join the kendo team. I heard that voice again, telling me I’d established the “Chariot” Social Link. Decided to go to Tartarus that night, even though it was just me and Junpei. Junpei and I explored up to floor 10, then went back to the dorm.
At lunch on Friday, Kenji and Kazushi (from the kendo team) both asked me to hang out after school. I really wanna work hard for the team, so I opted to go to practice. Chatted with Kazushi a bit after practice, and that voice told me that “The Chariot” was now to rank 2. I offered to walk Yuko, the team manager, home, but she declined, so I went home on my own. Yukari was up to it, so we went to Tartarus again. Made it up to floor 14, but since Yukari was tired, we didn’t fight the strong shadow there, and went back instead.
Heard that a new bookstore was opening on Saturday, so I checked it out after school. The old couple that runs it seemed nice, but the man kept talking about some persimmon tree at school. I went out and looked at it, and then took the couple a leaf I’d picked up from the ground. We chatted for a while, then that voice told me I’d established the “Hierophant” Social Link.
