Just a reminder that I’m still in the process of moving so my activity will off and on at best depending on what my family needs.

It was simple - simple as pie. Well, it was simple in words; actually working up the courage to go through with the action was different. Way different. It made sense to be afraid, worried; but, sometimes - the thought of falling in love, being with that person….outweighed the fear of rejection. 

Or….at least, that’s what her heart believed. Although, sometimes….love never worked out….

“Just, talk to him alone. Tell it to him - straight.  You can play games - test him….but, you aren’t like that.”

[sealedfools]

Is it really that easy?

The Fool asked the other, playing with her fingers a bit nervously. It seemed like it would have been easier to clear one of the dungeons in the TV World then tell Yosuke how she feels. She was still a little bit worried about their relationship as friend, but she knew that the other had a really good point. Their bond was a lot stronger that a single confession shouldn’t break it.

He took the bottle and nodded, “Thanks…” Opening it, he drank from it and sighed. “I’m not exactly how to react to all of this…It’s a bit too sudden, not to mention that I have no idea how I even got here in the first place.” 

That’s right, he should probably try to relax more in order to remember what happened before he woke up in that place…But wait…

”Say what year is it?” Perhaps the year would clear what he was thinking.

[sealedfools]

It’s fine, I know it’s overwhelming. But it’s better than when I first found out about it.

She replied shrugging her shoulders a bit. At least when the other found out about the Dark Hour there wasn’t a huge Shadow outside of the dorm trying to kill everyone inside. Though she raised an eyebrow when he asked what year it was.

2010 why?

Midterms are over, I’m ready to go collapse and not get up. How did your tests go?

[steamedzing]

“About the same, more or less. I might have to cry a bit when I get home but other than that…”

[sealedfools]

I don’t think I’m going to cry but I’m pretty sure that I didn’t outright fail them. 

[amatoribxs-deactivated20160615]

Geez. What was holding Senpai back? Shouldn’t she, of all people know how close all of them are? Something like a tiny confession wouldn’t break those bonds.

Holding back feelings was a horrible way to go about life - The idol knew that personally. Regret was a strong force, A force - that could over take your soul. 

“I’m not going to, geez! Don’t get so huffy! Listen, Senpai. If you don’t go for it, you are going to regret it. It won’t ruin your friendship…promise. It might be awkward for a while, but it won’t last.”

[sealedfools]

The city girl was still a little bit unsure, she knew that everyone was really close especially her and Yosuke. Since besides Teddie she was the only one to see Yosuke’s Shadow. But she put on an apologetic look on her face, she was  bit defensive only because this was something new to her.

Sorry this is new for me so I’m kind of nervous and unsure... Like I really don’t know about how to do it.

[sealedfools]

I just realized that almost all of my threads are with Yu. So I need some more threads with Souji. So like if you want a starter, it can either be during P3 or post p4 up to you.

[robotichermit]

“Sorry, sorry. Where I come from, there are three Narukamis-Souji and Yu, the brothers, and Kaguya, the sister. As for me…well, I’m a robot.”

Mostly true, though it left out the specific type-that could wait until he knew if she knew about Labrys.

[sealedfools]

Yu listened carefully and honestly the only part that made somewhat sense was Yosuke saying that he was a robot. Which could explain why Jiraiya is weak to electricity, but if that was true she was pretty sure that his Shadow should have mentioned something about not being human.

Wait, what are you talking about from where you come from? You said you were from the city.

[amatoribxs-deactivated20160615]

Cue an exaggerated eye roll from the girl; along with a exasperated sigh. Putting her hands on her hips, she leaned sightly to the left side; almost a little annoyed at hearing her leader defend Yosuke. No matter what the other girl said she could never see Yosuke as being sensitive.

He was just a dork, a huge dork; but whatever, if Yu liked him….she’d support her. Cause that’s what friends do.

“Yeah, unhuh…whatever. No matter what you say he’s still a huge dork.    Gosh, have you told him yet?” 

[sealedfools]

Yu knew that Yosuke had his dorky and childish moments but she really did like him and relied on him a lot. She really regretted telling Rise the truth but it was really hard to say no to the idol. Yu really stood no chance against Rise when Rise wanted to know something about her. 

No! You better not tell him Rise-chan!

She cried out covering her face, and silently wondered if she had a Shadow would facing it be easier than dealing with Rise’s questioning.

I really don’t want to ruin my friendship with him if I told him I liked him. I don’t know if he feels the same about me.

[maruiji]

Nope! I would have remembered something that important about you, senpai… I’d ask about him now, but I - I mean, if talking about him would make you feel worse, I definitely don’t want to ask.

[sealedfools]

It’s fine Rise-chan I called Mitsuru-senpai and she said that he’s still in his coma. I just wish that he would wake up. Maybe if he was leading the Investigation Team we would be farther along...

           It was kind of surprising that Yu zoned out in class this time along with Yosuke. Typically she was the one who listened in class and bailed him out. Perhaps something was wrong? “It’s fine, we’ll figure something out.” Lips curled upward as Yosuke stood and grabbed his bag. 

           “Where do you want to go to eat?” The Magician asked as they strolled out of the classroom and down the steps. Arms crossed in front of him while he let Yu think about the options they had. If she really wanted to, They could do to Okina city even. However, they still had the project to think about. “Oh and of course. I’m sure they’ve already started to be honest. You know how Yukiko-san’s grades are.”

[sealedfools]

I’m sure we will, we have a few days to get this done anyways.

She agreed with the Magician, grabbing her own bag as well. Now the important question was asked. She thought for a few minutes as she followed after Yosuke. She was still distracted, thinking about her brother and that usually didn’t make her very picky about what to eat.

Aiya is fine, I’m not particularly picky today. But you are right, Chie and Yukiko have already started. We can talk to them tomorrow.

[genesisfortune]

“I think some water would be nice…” 

That was his only respond. He then returned to looking at the moon from within the window…A time in between tomorrow and yesterday? It sounded normal to him but something felt wrong. 

He placed his hand where his heart would be and sighed, if any came to extreme, he wouldn’t worry much as long as he had Izanagi within his heart.

[sealedfools]

Ok I’ll get you some.

She called out from the kitchen and got an unopened water bottle from the fridge and she made her coffee and poured it into a bigger glass filled with ice. She knew that the concept behind the Dark Hour was strange and hard to grasp, but considering he was experiencing it, that means he has to have the potential. She returned to the lounge and handed him the water bottle.

Here you go. So I’m guessing you have questions, I can answer them the best that I can.

She replied sipping her coffee and got comfortable on the couch, waiting for the other to gather his thoughts. She had her evoker ready in case the needed it and Orpheus stood ready to fight if things went bad.

[amatoribxs-deactivated20160615]

Quickly clasping her fingers over her lips; the idol burst out into a fit of sugar sweet giggles, her other free hand moving to softly clutch her stomach. Okay. Okay. Maybe, she shouldn’t be laughing….but…geez. It was so very clear who her Senpai was referring to. 

Sighing nosily, she lowers her fingers; winking slightly towards the other girl.

“Ohmygod. Yosuke. Yosuke?  That dork?!”

[sealedfools]

The blush on Yu’s face just intensified as Rise continues to giggle at her. She didn’t know how to respond to the other’s reaction, except turn away slightly. To Yu’s regret, Rise did guess the right person and she cursed herself for not making the hint harder.

Rise-channnnn! Yosuke isn’t a dork! Well he is... not all of the time, but he has a sweet and caring and sensitive side too!

[sealedfools]

Yes, I can. I don’t think it’s selfish.

You nodded at the other and took a few minutes to gather your thoughts. You only knew about this when it was explained to you when you signed your own contract. Luckily for you, no one was missing right now and Rise was currently resting. So you were free for now.

I don’t know everything but I know a fair bit. Nyx is the embodiment of death, and is neither hostile or malevolent. It remains sleeping until something calls for it it could be either the appraiser or something else. Right now what is trying to call to Nyx is Erebus. Erebus is this huge creature that is created by all of humanity’s grief and negative will. It is trying to reach Nyx to bring about the Fall, but is being stopped by my brother… the Great Seal. The Fall is just like it sounds, if the Fall happens then humanity will be wiped out. Does that make any more sense?

[inabaleader]

“This sounds all too familiar somehow..” It was a shame he didn’t know anything about Izanami, since he had the same face as Seta, but the fact that he wasn’t and knew of the Great Seal ad Nyx was what made him thankful.

“..so it is just like Izanami was over here. She’s a, well, was, claimed to be a god that wished to turn humanity into nothing but shadows and encase the world with fog. So in a sense, it’s the same.” But over there, it seemed as though it hasn’t happened yet. There was a world that was on the verge of facing destruction.

“I take it if Nyx is awakened, you’ll have to fight it..?”

[sealedfools]

"It does?"

Yu asked the other a bit curious as it was her turn to listen to the other. She knew her team just finished saving Naoto and the Detective Prince was currently resting in her house. She thought about what the other's said about the fog, her hand traveled to her bag where her TV World glasses are. But the thought of this Izanami was banished from her mind when the next question came up.

Just the thought of fighting Nyx again made her stomach flip. That was something that she wanted to keep her old friends, and new team from having to do. That also meant if she had to fight Nyx... that means the Great Seal was broken and she didn't even want to think that would happen to her brother.

"Yes. I pray that we never will have to again... I don't know if we have the ability to create another seal if the current one is broken."

[amatoribxs-deactivated20160615]

Energetically shaking her head; the idol flashed a mischievous smile. She’d miss a whole year of sales for this.

“Nope! Not until you tell me who! I need to know! I promise I won’t tell!”

[sealedfools]

Yu was now regretting opening her mouth in front of her Navigator and one of her closest friends. She felt a blush creep onto her face as she frantically shook her head.

No names! But I’ll give you a hint, you actually know him very well and he goes to our school.

[genesisfortune]

“A little trip? Isn’t it a bit too late to go somewhere? I mean it’s almost midnight…” He shrugged his shoulders quietly as he looked into his pocket for his phone, looking at the time and then sighing. 

Suddenly as soon as it striked midnight, everything went dark. Narukami instantly blinked in surprised, “W-Wha…” He shook his head, did the power went out? It could be right? Or so he wanted to believe till he looked out the window and saw the bright moon and the sky. 

[sealedfools]

And there goes my nap.

Yu grumbled to herself as the clock struck midnight and the Dark Hour starter and the other didn’t transmogrify. She really hoped that the other would so that way she could sleep a bit before continuing this talk. Now that was out of the question and that coffee she had in the refrigerator really sounded appealing to get.

Well then...welcome to the Dark Hour. A time in-between tomorrow and yesterday. You must have the potential or else we wouldn’t be talking right now.

She started explaining as she undid the button that kept her Evoker in place. She knew that it was relatively safe within the dorms but it didn’t hurt to be prepared in case the Shadows come and attack for some reason. She remembered they attacked the dorm before and since as far as she knew the other probably hasn’t awakened to a Persona, he was still in danger.

Don’t bother with any electronics. During the Dark Hour no electronics work. I’m going to get the coffee I have in the refrigerator. Do you want anything? Milk, juice, water?

           Pealing the paper off of his face, Yosuke stared at it with the blankest expression on his face. “It looks like a bunch of words on a paper to be honest.” He was still tired obviously. “On a serious note, I have no clue. I think it’s like a paper with research but that’s just a guess.” Tossing the paper aside, Yosuke pulls out his phone and looks at the time. “You want to get something to eat? We can work on the assignment later.” 

[sealedfools]

Yu sighed as it was clear they were not getting any work done on this homework that was thankfully not due tomorrow. She carefully returned the headache inducing paper to her bag.

Normally I can figure out what he is talking about in class... except I zoned out again.

She replied with a shrug of her shoulders as she watched her partner for a bit. A simple nod of her head was the only response given when Yu realized what time it was when she pulled out her own phone.

Yeah lets do that. If anything we can meet up with Yukiko and Chie tomorrow and see if they figured this out.

[robotichermit]

“Well, for a start, you definitely aren’t my Yu. He’s…well, male. Add to that the fact that I’m not human, and it’s really not a surprise.” Yosuke shrugged. “But I’m fine, promise.”

[sealedfools]

Male? You mean my brother Souji? Wait I’m getting confused, what are you talking about your Yu? And wait your not? Can you slow down Yosuke? I’m getting really lost here.

She asked the other, very lost. But at least that may explain why she wasn’t feeling the Magician Arcana coming from the other.
