[ He said he'd do this weeks ago but maybe it's more convenient to do it now that there are more people around. There's no real reason to ask, beyond curiosity. It's not like they have their old powers from home.

But he is curious. And Souji had been too. ]

Did anyone here have a Persona?

[ The question is short and to the point and easily misunderstood if you have no idea what a Persona is. Minato's not saying any more on that particular matter, either. For most people, the feed ends there.

However... for one person it will not. Another video message follows. ]

[ filtered to Minako Arisato: ]

[ He looks downward after turning the feed back on and remains silent for a few moments to collect his thoughts before looking back up again, almost shy. ]

Minako-chan... can we talk? I have a few questions. [ Looking away again with a frown, he practically mumbles the rest: ] You're the only one I could think to ask. Who would understand.

[ Wow, that sounds serious. Okay, seriously, he's done now. Time to wait for replies somewhat nervously. ]

I guess that makes us comrades or something like that, huh? [she grins as she laughs a little.] Thanks, Minato-san. My name's Chie.

In a way. Let's take care of each other. [ And he means that in the very formal Japanese way that also means "Nice to meet you", but it may not translate very well in the Asgard language. ]

Yeah, definitely.

[she can get the gist!]

How many answers have you gotten, if you don't mind me asking? I'm still kind of amazed other people could use 'em, too.

Most people don't know what they are. So far I've only learned of you and Rise-san.

Ohh... I guess that'd make sense. It'd be a little too weird if a bunch of other people had them. But yeah, Rise-chan and I were a part of the same group.

You can never tell. I was surprised to learn about you guys. There could've been even more.

[wristbands]

I know, right? When Takeba-san told me about your group, I couldn't believe it.

That's why you're doing this, huh?

[ A nod. ]

Thanks for responding, Chie-san.

No problem! It's nice to meet you, too.
