Who: Hydra, Ikki, Allen, ANY
Where: The Arena
When: Day 98, evening
What: When we last left our intrepid heroes...

[In the arena, there's some decent quality meat burning as a gift to two particular Judges, a comatose member of Hydra and a few guards with torches... and not a whole lot else to explain what's going on.

Well the real interesting part is going on a little deeper anyway.]

[tenses his posture, turning a little red]

I'm just a little tired. What about you guys?

Re: Waking up~

[righthandsmoke.insanejournal.com]

Relieved. [and tired and hungry but those are UNIMPORTANT DETAILS clearly] You sure you're alright?

Re: Waking up~

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

I'm sure. You all have a lot to take care of now, don't you? I'm glad you're not hurt.

Re: Waking up~

[righthandsmoke.insanejournal.com]

Yeah . . . I guess we do.

[\o/ WHAT. Freezes up briefly, startled]

Allen?

Hearts are never safe either.

. . . [l-leans against him ._.]

It was . . . It was fine. There was only one bad area. We backed out of there pretty fast.

Re: Waking up~

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

[holds the back of his head, a little protective]

. . . Good. I'm glad. And it sounds like it was the right thing to do. You really saved them both.

[thunks his forehead on Allen's shoulder]

I knew it going in. We didn't want to change anything.

[pettt]

Having a directive is less scary than Persona's games, but the stakes are so much higher. It still feels so fragile in those places.

Re: Waking up~

[righthandsmoke.insanejournal.com]

It definitely is. Wish lost a memory he'd earned after someone fucked up in his heart.

Re: Waking up~

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

[p-pulls back]

Seriously. . .

Re: Waking up~

[righthandsmoke.insanejournal.com]

Seriously.

Re: Waking up~

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

[sighs...]

It all worked out here, at least.

It's really late, though... I should be heading back.

Re: Waking up~

[righthandsmoke.insanejournal.com]

. . . Yeah. They're probably gonna wonder if you stay out much longer.

Re: Waking up~

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

. . . You okay? You look like you're disappointed.

Re: Waking up~

[righthandsmoke.insanejournal.com]

—I'm not! And even if I was, our teams still need us.

Re: Waking up~

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

Haha. . . yeah.

Well. . . maybe another night?

Re: Waking up~

[righthandsmoke.insanejournal.com]

. . . Yeah. Maybe.

Re: Waking up~

[pierrotdetous.insanejournal.com]

It would be nice.

Re: Waking up~

[righthandsmoke.insanejournal.com]

[nods slowly]

Rain would probably be okay with you staying for a while . . . I think he should be alright with your team now.
