<HeartOnBlade> Ha ha ha ha.
<HeartOnBlade> So silly.
<HeartOnBlade> Ridiculous. Really funny in hindsight.

<Azure Scholar> Oh my, oh my, oh my.
<Azure Scholar> I detect a critical hit inflicted straight on the heart of my ego. You may now proceed with an All-Out Attack.
<Azure Scholar> Hit the core a dozen times to drain the adversary of all its vitality. After which, it will shatter into a million pieces as every offensive memory I possess cascades upon me like heavy monsoon rain in the tropics.
<Azure Scholar> If you are lucky, you might even get to see me shed a tear.
<HeartOnBlade> Very calm.
<Azure Scholar> Oh, I assure you, I am not.
<Azure Scholar> My outward appearance may be a perfect mask of dignity, but inside my soul a magnificent, cursed bonfire rages. Like a pail of treacherous serpents, the holy flame has long since spilled past its boundaries.
<Azure Scholar> It’s now threatening to send the upholstery up in smoke, leaving ashes born from shame. See how I place my hand over my heart and close my eyes. It is so very vexing.
<Azure Scholar> In short, if the sum of my teenage years had a tangible form, I would gladly shoot it in the face.
<HeartOnBlade> Verbose.
<HeartOnBlade> But, you’re not alone.
<Azure Scholar> Yes, I am aware.
<Azure Scholar> It’s rather comforting to know that we have all made great blunders in the past, worthy of being converted into a comedic video that gains millions of views on online sharing sites.

<Azure Scholar> It’s a guilty pleasure, I know.
<Azure Scholar> Yet, I have reason to believe that my shame deserves to be of greater magnitude than everyone else’s.
<Azure Scholar> How could I have overlooked something so obvious?
<HeartOnBlade> Whatever.
<HeartOnBlade> Deal with it.
<Azure Scholar> Oh, I am coping very well, thank you very much.
<HeartOnBlade> Anyway, need to talk to you about something else.
<Azure Scholar> What is it?
<HeartOnBlade> Found an error in the last archival text.
<HeartOnBlade> Left out something.
<Azure Scholar> That wouldn’t happen to be the part about triangulating the Blackened Void connection from the real world?
<Azure Scholar> Of how the IP address came out as blank and the physical coordinates pointed to multiple locations simultaneously, one of which was the highest point in Tokyo, another at the very depths of District 7?
<Azure Scholar> Along the implications of such information?
<Azure Scholar> I just corrected it now.
<HeartOnBlade> How did that happen?

<Azure Scholar> Perhaps this should serve as a warning to everyone: binging on a mixture coffee and Pick-Me-Up Pills will provide you with massive amounts of energy, but may cause you to act more hastily than you would’ve liked.
<HeartOnBlade> Dummy.
<Azure Scholar> In my defense, it was only a relatively small mistake. Other Players have made worse when it was their turn to recall and record.
<Azure Scholar> Nevertheless, for someone such as I, it is still inexcusable. It seems I will have to step up my game.
<HeartOnBlade> On stop taking stupid amounts of caffeine.
<Azure Scholar> That too. With those maxims combined, hopefully such mistakes should not occur again.
<HeartOnBlade> Of course.
<Azure Scholar> So, who on earth told you about this? I pushed the update late last night and it’s now early in the morning.
<HeartOnBlade> Takashi did.
<HeartOnBlade> He always reads stuff like that.
<HeartOnBlade> Happened to be in the area.

She does that.

[<Azure Scholar> opened a blogpost on 7:00 am, 1-Jun-2129]
<Azure Scholar> The results from the blood test performed on the subject have returned.
<Azure Scholar> It seems that I will have to eat a portion of my words, as the blood is unmistakably of human origin. It has a healthy amount of white, red blood cells and platelets. The type is O. All in all it points to an average Japanese adolescent.
<Azure Scholar> Before any of you jump to conclusions, I have scanned the subject again and discovered that its status has not changed in the slightest. It is still an ‘Abomination’ with real skills and spells.
<Azure Scholar> There are two possibilities. The first is that the subject is a monster taking the guise of a human, like the kitsune or a tanuki. However, this would mean the subject has a way to change its blood to that of, or similar to, a human, which is an ability uncommon in mythology.
<Azure Scholar> This is AETHER we are talking about, though. I would not discount anything.
<Azure Scholar> The second possibility is that the outer body is a human, but is merely a shell for the tar-skinned monster we fought.
<Azure Scholar> It would explain why scanning the subject reveals the information of the monster, not the human, as the monster is likely to be the more dominant entity.
<Azure Scholar> This is the more believable scenario, as I noticed the abomination shedding purple blood during our with it. Clearly, it is non-human, or someone who managed to inject a high amount of grape juice into their veins.
<Azure Scholar> Nothing can be confirmed at this stage, however. I would appreciate a second attempt at a sample, but it is not worth facing against the beast for a second time.
<Azure Scholar> Once the subject awakens, I will question him. Perhaps then we will find out the truth.
<Azure Scholar> Failing that, autopsies are always an option.

Right. If it's alive, the term is "vivisection". Which is a much cooler word, so let's be sure to get our vocabulary right.

[10:30 am, 1-Jun-2129 (WEDNESDAY)]

It’s the beginning of recess when Veleis-sensei comes up to you, tablet nestled in her hands. Your classmates around you quickly turn their backs on you and shuffle off elsewhere. In the distance, Takauji raises his hand for a wave and a comment about whether or not the two of you would like to buy snacks from the cafeteria. He then reconsiders.

“Wakui.” Veleis-sensei intones, her voice soft and flat as usual. “Are you busy at the moment?”

“No, not really. What is it, sensei?”

“Would you mind doing me a favour after school?” Her robotic features are displayed in a neutral expression, but a slight hardness in her crimson eyes and her tone tell you that if you decline, there will be a rather displeased android lurking around the classroom in the near future. One brandishing extra homework pdf files and glaring at you with twin evil eyes.

“Sure.” You say. “What is it?”

“Aria von Wittelsbach hasn’t been in class for three whole days. She hasn’t been responding to any of my emails, either. Since you sit next to her, I’m assigning you the duty of checking on her. Please do it after classes conclude for the day.”

>“Okay, I understand.”

We have been meaning to check up on her.

It is a good question to ask at least. Even if we shown her around, this is the sort of thing you'd get the class president to do. Mind you if there is no other option we'd do it, but still.

>>46759125
We haven't been getting a lot done in general, lately. Takashi's spreading himself too thin, not focusing on any one thing enough to get shit done. When was the last time we went to a club? We need to buckle down and focus.

>>46759125
Takashi got a long-coveted social rank up with Fumika. Also, a new door to the Blackened Void was opened in the mall.

>>46759212
Next time we get a silver key, we should open the one in Silver Town. We could probably use it as a shortcut to school.

“How come?”

“The last time I talked to Aria, she sort of became flustered and ran away from me. There might be some bad blood between us. Wouldn’t it make more sense for Kanade to go? She’s the class president, after all.”

“Takashi.” Veleis-sensei says after what feels like a mild eternity, but was in reality actually around ten seconds. “I understand you are a little shy. The truth is, you are not as bad as you think.”

“Pardon?”

“Listen to me, Takashi. In your life, you have face challenges that will seem intimidating to you. Talking to your new boss, for example. Dealing with a troubled spouse, or attempting to finish an important piece of work in a small deadline. It will seem tempting to run away and hide, I do know how it feels, but it will only make things worse for you.”

She pauses. “I’ve seen how you act, Takashi. You have a number of friends and you are not incapable of talking to others. Thus, you are not incapable of checking up on Wittelsbach.”

“Sensei, I know, but I just think that Kanade—”

She silences you with a metallic palm. “This isn’t about her, Takashi. It’s about you. Yes, it may be awkward for you, the two of you have apparently gotten into something of a fight. But when this occurs, what do you think the right thing to do is?

You answer her, feeling like an elementary school student again. “Apologize?”

Veleis-sensei nods. “Correct. Confront the situation, don’t try and escape it. The more you drag it out, the worse it will become.”

You look down, still unsure. This does not go unnoticed You hear Veleis-sensei sigh.

“Look, it’s not as if you’re being sent onto the battlefield to fight Shadows. Find her dorm, ask her about her situation, apologize to her and report back. It’s simple.”

“Do you really think I can do this?”

“Of course. I wouldn’t be asking you otherwise. Aria isn’t an unreasonable girl. You’re the closest person to her in this academy. I’m sure if you explain the situation carefully to her, she’ll be accepting of it. If something does go wrong…then you may call upon me.”

[4:00 pm, 1-Jun-2129 (WEDNESDAY)]

“Hey Takashi, club’s on. You coming today?’

“Sorry Takauji, I have to go and do that thing Veleis-sensei asked me to do. Maybe next time.”

“Ohh…that thing. The thing you got chewed out in front of the class for?”

“I didn’t get chewed out, dumbass. She gave me good advice.”

“Sure, sure. Whatever you say, man.”

“I’m going now. Don’t get stabbed by Kanami in bed or something.”

Takauji chokes, Kanade gives him a questioning look and you smirk. You wave goodbye to the rest of the friends and leave. Actually, only Celeste waves goodbye with a smile. Akikazu simply grunts a farewell and Fumika doesn’t say anything at all.

Typical.

It’s a bit cold today. There are more clouds in the orange sky than usual. At the front gate, you look around and notice that a lot more students are wearing their blazers today. Some are even wearing scarves--the navy blue ones supplied by the academy, of course. You wonder if this could be an omen of some description. Probably not, but in the age of magic humanity has become several times more superstitious, which is possibly more than they need to.

“Let’s see…Aria’s dorm is…”

Google Maps boots up on your smartphone. With a few deft slides and touches that would impress a paralyzed girl in a wheelchair, you locate Aria’s dorm. It’s a few blocks away from here. It’s also apparently the number one choice for transfer students attending your academy. If the average rent rates in Japan are anything to go by, staying there isn’t going to be cheap.

A few stops at the traffic lights, past the usual city crowds and you’ve arrived at your destination. The building is an efficient white rectangle, with numerous square lights from the rooms glowing all up the front. The title of the building is displayed on the front in fluorescent blue that borders on the edge of being tacky. You step through the double doors and into a deserted lobby.

“Hello, I’m looking for Aria von Wittelsbach. Is she here?”

>expecting Hermit
>get Emperor
Clearly I need to rethink my life decisions.

In the past, front desks would have been supervised by humans. Now, the job is done by robots. Not androids—they are too valuable to be performing dull secretarial roles. You’re talking about lifeless, grey husks devoid of intelligence. Just like your laptop, for instance.

The machine accepts your voice patterns and displays a list of information.

“Third floor, huh…”

You enter a lift and ride. You exit into a hallway, sleek, clean with floor made out with enamel without any carpet to cover it up. Aria’s door is soon located. You stand in front of it, a bud of nervousness blossoming within the pits of your stomach.

You swallow and force it down.

You move to knock on the door. It turns out you shouldn’t have bothered.

For the door is unlocked. It swings open with a creak, revealing a room with nobody in sight. The lights are off. The curtains are drawn. Through the gloom, you can see the outlines of a bunk-bed, some simple furniture and the plastic wrappings of convenience store snacks.

Bretty good. A few things:
>I question why it's apparently set in March (a month before Takashi got dragged into AETHER).
>Good job on the line breaks, but try to keep them consistent. Huge blocks of text are not easy to read, so try to give each paragraph a line of space between. At least, that's my personal preference, so take it as you will.
>You sort of switch between narrator 'types'. It's usually in limited third person, but occasionally slips into second person and commentating.
>If, as Aria suspected, Takashi and Celeste were actually dating, then holy shit, deciding to break it off by just avoiding her is very possibly the single stupidest decision he could possibly make.
>Actually, it isn't even very clear what happened between them. If that's your intention, then good on you, I always enjoy being taunted with knowledge by the author.
>It pleases me that even Aria understands that Celeste is best girl and that she cannot compete.
All in all, keep it up, and don't stop improving.

You call out into the darkness.

“Hello? Anybody home?”

You rap on the door once, for good measure. A dull thud rings through the silence. The handle quivers. Apart from that, your action goes unnoticed. You take a tentative step into the dorm room.

“Aria? You there? It’s me, Takashi. The guy you showed your art to. Hello?”

Again, there is no response. Your echoes, bouncing around the furniture and walls. It is futile. You frown. Something is definitely up. You take another step and before you know it your hand is groping straight for the light switch.

>>Takashi: Flip.

The switch is now on 'ON'. Light floods throughout the room. The details within are revealed for your dark grey eyes to see.

You do not like what you see.

“Oh, shit.”

Your bag is thrown to the side, the dead weight discarded off your back. Your feet pound against the hard floor towards the bunk bed. All of your apprehension vanishes into the air Panic, along with adrenaline, surges through your veins, as if someone just injected your body with a dozen different combat stims. Sprawled on the floor next to the bed, limbs dangling off in random directions, is your target.

“Aria!”

You shout her name and rush over to her side.

“Hey, wake up!”

Her breath comes out in ragged gasps. Sweat trickles down the side of her cheeks. Her pulse is going haywire. You press a hand to her forehead. If it weren’t for Ippon-Datara’s fire resistance, you would’ve winced at the heat. To make things worse, you notice a patch of red dots spread out across her skin, like a blood-stained minefield dug into a weapon-strewn battleground. You brush up against one and Aria lets out a yelp of pain.

“Dammit!”

You wave your hands in front of her. A gentle breeze brushes against her nose. She doesn’t react. She remains there, shivering and groaning.

“Shit, shit, shit…”

You stand there in shock, for the briefest of moments. Then your intelligence kicks in and you spring into action.

>>Takashi: Dial 119.

“Excuse me, but I need an ambulance!”

…

“Yeah, at, uh…”

It takes you a few seconds to recall the name of the dorm. You curse your inadequacy.

“…room 314 on the third floor. My phone number is…”

The operators ask you a series of questions. The standard fare. You fire them off, hoping that it’ll be able to help in some way.

“No, she’s not awake. She’s not breathing. She’s burning up though, and there’s these red spots all over her skin.”

The process is complete. The ambulance will be here soon. The phone does not hang up, instead opting to put you on hold. You are on standby and are awaiting for further instructions.

You look back at Aria. She’s rolled over to the side and is mumbling something beneath her breath. It doesn’t sound like Japanese.

You know nothing about medicine. If life was a doctor’s exam, you’d already be dead. You didn’t even bring any Personas knowing Dia or Media today. Not that it would have mattered—the Dia class of spells only heals physical wounds, not diseases. All you have with you is your common sense and a barebones foundation of homebrew remedies passed down through generations of Japanese household families.

It doesn't sound good.

Yet, it will have to do.

>>Takashi: Cool Aria off.

First things first. You need to make Aria more comfortable. You reach down and pick her up in your arms. Her body is light. Her arms are thin. She hasn’t been eating properly, it seems. You lay her down on the bottom bunk. Her clothes consist of a thin shirt and an average-length skirt, colored red. Good. It means you won’t have to go to the trouble of removing any extraneous layers.

Next, you flip on the aircon and set it to low. Then you grab a towel from the bathroom, pale white and half-worn, and soak it in lukewarm water. The only reason you know this is because nee-san tried to do something similar when you were seven. Except, she used freezing cold water and somehow made your fever worse. Kaa-san lectured her ear off and you remember nee-san crying in shame. You forgave her in the end, so it all worked out or something.

You press the towel on Aria’s forehead. She flinches a bit, then relaxes. Part of the fever has gone down. You smile and sigh in relief.

This is all you can do. The rest will be up to the paramedics. You kneel down next to her.

Aria rolls over again. You struggle to keep the towel on her forehead. She is still gibbering, muttering strings of Japanese mixed in between her native language. Most of it is too low to decipher, even with a top-grade translation application on your phone.

A tremor passes through her frail body. She coughs, then mumbles something.

“Verzeihung…”

The app flickers into motion.

“Bitte verzeih mir…”

A statement of apology.

“Ta…”

She struggles with the next word.

“Takashi…”

She mutters your name. Her face is contorted with pain.

While we're waiting:

>SIR YELLINGBIRD'S FACT OF THE DAY: INITIAL PERSONA EDITION

>Ippon-Datara
As we all know, Ippon-Datara is said to be a degraded blacksmith god, and it is believed that he was once Ame no Me-Hitotsu no Kami. His crippled appearance (one eye, one leg) is due to his status as a blacksmith, which was not exactly the safest job back in the day. The Greek god of the forge, Hephaestus, was similarly ass-ugly.

Possible evolution: Ame no Me-Hitotsu no Kami, obviously, but not much information exists about this fucker. A more mainstream possibility might be Hephaestus. He’s big leagues enough to be a main character Persona.

>Sati
Sati is probably the most well-known of the Void’s Chosen’s Personas. She hails from Buddhist mythology, and it is said that she was a goddess, Adi-parashakti, that reincarnated as a human at the behest of Brahma, to be the daughter of Brahma’s son Daksha. Daksha was displeased when Sati married Shiva, and the father and daughter got into a bit of an argument where Sati got so angry that she took on her divine form and cursed Daksha to be killed by Shiva. Even after that, she was still so pissed that she decided to reincarnate, hoping that maybe next time she’d get a father who would show her and her husband some fucking respect. So she did that, by throwing herself into a fire, was reborn as Parvati, and married Shiva again. This was the mythological source of the practice of sati, where a widow would immolate herself after her husband’s death. Don’tcha just love history?

Possible evolution: Parvati would be an obvious choice, if it wasn’t for the fact that Parvati is already a Priestess Arcana Persona. I suspect that another option might be Rangda, who was mentioned in a dream of Takashi's in an early thread, alongside Decarabia, a Fool Persona that looks like a starfish with one eye. Ame no Me-Hitotsu no Kami?

>>Takashi: Hold her hand.

You take her palm and press it in yours. This is the first time you have done this with a girl your age. It’s different than what you imagined, though. Scenes from romantic comedies, about dense protagonists and irritated student council presidents, flash through your mind and snort. Reality is truly separated from fiction. You hold Aria’s hand not out of love, nor lust, nor bravery. Rather, you do it out of compassion and sympathy for the weak, frail classmate of yours.

An odd sense of peace washes over you. The action is comforting, to you and her.

“Der vater…”

“Hey, I’m here. It’s going to be okay. The ambulance is coming and you’ll be fine, Aria.”

You clench her fingers, gently and continue to whisper to her. It's nothing more than small talk, silly words and phrases. It seems to help, though. Her breathing subsides and becomes more regular. A fragment of color returns to her cheeks.

It takes a few minutes for the paramedics to arrive. They asses Aria’s condition, then carry her out in a stretcher. You step out of the way and let them work. Out in the hallway, several other students exit their rooms to take a gander at what’s going on. One of the paramedics, a man with clean-cut brown hair and a tall physique, questions you while all of this is happening. His voice is tired, but at the same time satisfied.

“What’s your name, son?”

“Takashi Wakui. Sixteen years old, attending Akumachi-Kirijo Academy.”

You answer him as best as you can. Throughout it all, the combination of tension and concern grows and grows deep within you and you can’t help but blurt out the following near the end.

“Will she be alright?” You ask.

“Yeah, your lady friend is going to be fine. Malnourishment and fevers are no joke. Her life isn’t in any danger, though.” The paramedic takes a second look at you. “You are her friend, right?”

(did not mean to respond to that post, whoops)

>Ubelluris:
Ubelluris, in Hittite mythology, was a mountain god who carried the western edge of the sky on his shoulders. However, in Hurrian mythology (which was a major influence on the Hittites), he was called Upelluris, the Dreaming God that spent all his time deep in meditation. Because they have the mentality of frat bros, the other gods thought it would be hilarious to place the stone giant Ullikummi (which would become the world) on Upelluris’s shoulders as he meditated, and he never noticed. He was a very heavy sleeper.

Possible evolution: Atlas, a sky-carrying deity similar to Ubelluris.

>Moros
Moros was the Greek god of impending doom, the son of Nyx and brother of the Fates. The Fates decreed that nobody, not even Zeus, could question Moros. Basically, everybody was afraid of him and none of the gods would go back on a promise they made because to do so would break destiny, and Moros did not like that one bit, no sir.

Possible evolution: No clue. Possibly one of the Moirae (or Fates), Clotho, Lachesis, or Atropos, but they’re all Personas of the Fortune Arcana, and Fumika is so Hermit that it’s a miracle she doesn’t burst into flames when exposed to sunlight.

Japanese fevers are dangerous. Those things will just kill a man with the pressure people have these days.

>>46762812
From what I got here and there, Ame no Me-Hitotsu no Kami was one of a major 'cult' of black smith gods. Apparently female. There also seems to be a shrine based on her name so might be something to keep an eye on.

As for other possibilities? Crafting gods or even creator gods could work for Takashi considering his connection to the fool and possibly the world. Who knows, we may even get a name of God.

Blame the lack of good Japanese immune systems.

>>46763049
I was thinking something similar. A Fool's Ultimate Persona would be Judgement or World Arcana, so a major deity would be appropriate. A god of creation, too, to fit with our first persona being a smith. How about Amenominakanushi, the first being and creator of the other gods?

I was going to suggest Yaldabaoth as a possible evolution, but that seems just a little extreme

Also, our lord and savior already has it

Thirding

>>46763134
It would be funny if we got Sophia as our Ultimate Persona, then. Ialdaboth's mother, that he can not perceive for he is blind to the truth of the higher world, and instead thinks himself God due to his power over the lower one.

If I recall, she has Demiurge. A false version of Yaldabaoth or a fraction of the deity. Remember, big G God has many names.. which makes sense considering several major religions use variations of him.

Depends on if there's a space elf in this quest.

It takes a few seconds for you to answer.

“Yeah, I’m her friend.” You say. The closest Aria has to one at present, anyway. The paramedic nods and leaves the room to join his comrades. You consider asking him to give you a ride back to the hospital, but it’s probably against their protocol. Plus, from the snippets of information you picked up from the other paramedics, Aria’s going to be unconscious for a while. Lying in a bed reeking of hospital cleaner, an IV drip forced into her arm and not a friendly soul around for miles. It’s a situation you can relate to, all too well.

You did give them your phone number, in case they needed it for something. Hopefully they’ll notify you when Aria regains consciousness. It’s difficult not to feel terrible for her. First her outburst on the school roof and now this.

"Time to go..."

You leave the dorm and step back out into the streets. The sky is growing dark. Streetlights flicker on and cars honk. The last wave of students are surging towards their homes, done with their extra-curricular activities for the day.

Well, that was certainly one way to spend an afternoon. What will you do now?

Nah, just be really goddamn casual with them.
No matter how they try to unnerve or scare us, just keep on sipping a soda and making small talk or something.
