dualpinkpistols | [Video] Gearing up for the first issue!

Ciao, Vatheon~!

[ Have a perky journalist, guys. She's smiling at the screen. ]

Seems like the influx of newcomers has stopped as predicted, huh? I'd like to take the time to say "hi!" to everyone here, new and old, if we haven't already met. I'm Maya Amano, and it's nice to meet you! Things can get a little hectic here, though it's mostly a nice peaceful place, so don't worry! We'll get through this together.

[ Moving topics, she holds up what appears to be a magazine cover. The words "COOLEST" are on the front in English, and at the bottom is a little "Kismet Publishing". ]

Right! And on that note... news. Yes, that's right, this journalist is looking for her first big scoop~! If you guys have anything you think is news-worthy, call your Ace Reporter, and I'll be there in a zip, okay?

[ Have a little silly salute as she continues on. ]

I'm currently looking for stories to collect, so if any of you guys would like to tell me about yourselves, your home world, what you do, or especially about any dreams you have of the future, I might feature you in Coolest's first issue, next month! Or I may even save your story for another issue. I'm aiming for everyone to get to know each other better on top of learn about Vatheon here itself with my magazine, so I want to do a spotlight column on all of us foreigners. I don't care about what you did back home, even if you were what you'd consider "ordinary" or not!

Because "ordinary" is really only a few letters away from "extraordinary", don't you think?

[ Putting the magazine away, the camera focuses on Maya, who is jokingly holding and smiling over a microphone in her hand. ]

Doesn't matter the topic you're comfortable talking about, Vatheon! Go ahead and tell me, because you're all live with Maya now! I hope we can all get to know each other and have some fun along the way. Cheers!

[ And then the feed cuts with a wink and grin. ]

[ FILTERED TO THE P3 CAST; 70% UNHACKABLE ]

[ There is a short pause, before she makes another call. Akihiko was gone from the dorms, as she'd noticed. ]

Hey, everyone. I heard your senpai went back... I know I haven't gotten the chance to meet and talk to all of you just yet in SEES. There's Haruka-chan and Ken-kun and Junpei-kun along with Mina-chin and Yukari-chan, right? I know you guys have inducted some new members, too. But if you guys need anything, don't hesitate to talk to me! As a fellow Persona user and an adult with personal experience on this sort of thing... I'd be happy just to listen, if you want. Maya's got your back! All of you.

[ FILTERED TO THE INVESTIGATION TEAM; 80% UNHACKABLE ]

[ To the Persona 4 cast, including Souji and Kanji and Naoto, Maya gives a happy little wave, now. ]

I heard from the grapevine you guys are from Inaba... and you know the Gekkoukan kids, from Tatsumi Port Island? You met recently, right? So you guys can also use a Persona? If you don't mind, I'd really love to talk to all of you in person! Ciao~ ♥

If you've heard anything about Sumaru, then that's good news.

[ There is a slightly exasperated tone here. S-sob why does the world ALWAYS end-- ]

Hopefully nothing about soldiers raining down from the sky... or space ships...

[ A little more seriously now, Maya considers. She doesn't seem surprised, really. ] Well, you're definitely not a Shadow, haha! Shadows are us, but not a different gender. Besides, a Shadow can't use a regular Persona, anyway... only Reverse versions.

Do you... mind if I ask when you're from, though, Haru-chin?

[ ~~Yes, she'll nickname you too.~~ The Nyx thing. ... She knows it already. She took care of Minato when he came back, after all. Strong armed him into telling her, because she cares. ]

No, nothing like that. I think it had to do with rumors, but that's about it.

[She shrugs.]

Did Minato-kun tell you about the Shadows we deal with?

I don't mind. I'm from the same time as Minato-kun. [~~Nicknames are love!~~ Haruka smiles.] Did he tell you already, Amano-san?

[ ... A nod. ]

That's because rumors were becoming reality in our city... and yes, he told me. Actually, I had to make him tell me, since when he came back... I found him first. I took him back, took care of him, and made him tell me what he was stupid enough to do to himself.

[ There's a pause. ]

Haruka... I understand your situation more than you might think. Do you think we could meet up and talk there? I doubt either of us is comfortable discussing this kind of thing over the communicator, 'secure' or not.

I see....

[She hesitates for a moment before nodding.]

That sounds like a good idea. Where do you wanna meet?

[ A pause, before she smiles gently. ]

Haruka... I want you to be able to trust me, okay? Like I've told Minato... you guys don't look after yourselves nearly as much as you do for everyone else. Someone has to take care of you guys! You're still just kids...

[ She considers for a moment where to meet with her. ]

How about we take a walk outside the dorms? We'll meet there, if that's okay with you.
