During Royâs play-through of Persona 4âŚ
Pit: So, you go into TVâs and stop murders?
Roy: Pretty much. You can also romance people, but I would highly recommend to NEVER touch the harem route. Little Mac did that and he was depressed for weeks. It hits the emotional cords unlike anything youâve ever experienced.
Roy: Cool! I got Kanjiâs persona! Kanji joins the team!
Pit: Wait, did the boss just become his persona?
Roy: Yeah. You see, the versions of themselves they see in the TV world are their shadows. Their shadows are their deepest parts of themselves that they bottle up and hide from the world. We fight because they deny that part of themselves, and essentially lie about it. Once we beat the boss, the person will accept the shadow as a part of their character and grow as a person. Not only that, but the shadow will turn into their persona.
Pit: Woah. So thatâs how it works.
Roy: Iâm surprised you havenât tried it with Dark Pit.
Roy: Well, heâs the personification of all your deepest thoughts. Heâs basically you, right?
Pit: No heâs not! Sure, the mirror of truth made him and Pandora said he was my innermost thoughts given human form, and we look the same, but that doesnât mean heâs me!
Roy: So what youâre saying is, he isnât you?
Roy: Wow. Thatâs the same thing everyone else in Persona 4 said. Then we had to fight their shadows since they kept lying to themselves.
Pit: I said it isnât like that!
Roy: Are you sure? I mean, you fought Dark Pit before havenât you?
Roy: And before that, you said that he doesnât come from any part of you? Essentially saying âYouâre not me!â?
Roy: SoâŚhow do we know?
Dark Pit, on the floor: Pitstain, let go of me!
Pit, clinging onto him: Pittoo, I accept you! Now become my Persona!
Dark Pit: What?! Let go of me, you numbskull!
Palutena, watching from a distance: âŚ.(sips tea)
Joker: ShouldâŚwe do something?
Palutena, shrugs: Eh, I wanna see where this goes.
Pit: Wait, I have to fight you first!Â
Dark Pit: Pitstain, put down that bat, or so help meâŚ!
Pit, approaching: Itâs okay, Pittoo. Once I KO you, Iâll accept you despite your hostility towards authority!
