Uh... Koro-chan, I don't think we're in Iwatodai anymore...

[Or well, Koromaru isn't here anymore either, huh. Oh boy. This is super weird.]

Orrrr... I can be the only one here. Well isn't this nice. Boy Junpei, you're really winning the lottery on "Get put into weird situations" lately. First getting locked in the dorm, now this...

[He's not really noticing the change in clothes just yet. Or at least, not his most important article of clothing. He still has robes, and these neat wing shoes, but... you know.]

I found this thing on me too, but this is totally for girls. I don't have to like... do my make up or something.

[Reaching up to rub the back of his head, and he finally notices--]

-- Hey! Where the hell's my hat?!

[Junpei - Worried about all the right wrong things.]

[fools_journey]

Thanks.

... [ Though Junpei gets a slight Look at the question. His sister is a very capable leader, and Minato doesn't appreciate insinuations otherwise. Hmph. ]

[video]

[tadadada]

[Oh no.]

Hey man, what's that look for? I'm not really thinkin' she'd be a bad leader or anything. Just thinkin' about other things, is all.

[Like operation Babe Hunt. And... the hotel moon...]

[video]

[fools_journey]

Exactly.

[ That's the problem, Junpei. He knows where your mind goes... ]

[video]

[tadadada]

[Oh dammit.]

Man, not those things either! C'mon. I mean, yeah, she's cute, but...

[Yeah, that's the weird part.] Nah, this is too weird to think about. I don't wanna know how much the world can change.

[If he went out with her instead of Chidori, what would've happened?]

[fools_journey]

[ Minato shrugs, slightly amused by Junpei's backpedaling. ]

... you should have dinner with us sometimes. Fuuka, too.

[ pause ] There's actually another persona user living here, as well.

[video]

[tadadada]

Oh uh... yeah, sure. I'd be okay with that.

[But wait, what?] You serious? Who is it?

[video]

[fools_journey]

His name is Teddie... it's a year or two ahead of our time for him.

[video]

[tadadada]

Teddie? [What a weird name...]

Wait, did you say two years? What the hell... ?

[video]

[fools_journey]

[ nod nod. ]

Mm. People come from many different points in time here. He happens to be from later than us. ... the reason shadows and personas turn up then is different, though. And it's apparently confined to a small town.

[video]

[tadadada]

Different? At least it's only a small town I guess, but... jeez.

It's never gonna end, is it?

[ Minato gets really quiet for a moment or two, his gaze going a little distant as he thinks about that. When he speaks again, it's softer, a rueful smile flashing across his face as he doesn't quite look back at Junpei. ]

Someday... when humanity is more accepting of itself, maybe then Personas won't be needed anymore. There's always a chance there will be an end to it someday. You just have to have hope.

[video]

[tadadada]

... Yeah. Just gotta hope for that day. [They already learned that when they were under the dorm. But man.]

We've really gotta step it up.

[video]

[fools_journey]

We'll all do our best.

[video]

[tadadada]

... Yeah, you're right. We're not gonna give up that easily!

[video]

[fools_journey]

Never.

[video]

[tadadada]

Exactly. When've we ever given up?

[video]

[fools_journey]

... never. Not even when we should have.

[ Oh the Hot Springs... and Babe Hunt... ]

[video]

[tadadada]

Even when the cards were against us. So see! No problem.

[video]

[fools_journey]

Exactly.

[ Rock on, Junpei. ]
