Hey ... dudes? I'm pretty sure last I checked, there was no way to fit an entire city under our dorm. I mean, a weird desert full of doors is one thing, but this?

[pause while stupei here stands around scratching his ~~hat~~ head for a sec]

Hey, did anyone see where Koromaru ran off to? Tch, friggin' dog ...

[awww yuka-tan. you really like us. you really, really like us. :3 he'll be following your lead because he has no idea what's what around here.]

Nah, I left it back at the dorm. Figured it'd just get in the way of carrying supplies. But hey, not to worry - I still got my Evoker with me!

[herp derp grinning like a dumbass]

Uh, yeah. About that...

[ She's leading the way back to the Lights in the meantime, keeping a sharp eye out for monsters. ]

What about it? [kind of stupidly ambling along without paying much attention ... like a stupei does]

We've kind of...all got chips inside of us somewhere that limit our powers. Until we get them out, we can't summon our Personas here.

[SCREECHING TO A DEAD HALT HERE]

... What?

Yeahhh. We've just found out where the new chips are, though, so we can get them out pretty soon.

So ... you're serious about us getting kidnapped by aliens?

[which leads to an even more horrifying thought -]

Did they all, like ... probe us and stuff?

[ ...okay now she doesn't miss you as much. ]

No, they didn't probe us, Junpei.

But how do you know? If they put a chip in us ... isn't that pretty standard for aliens? Kidnap, probe, chip ... aww, dude. I feel so violated.

Just take my word for it, alright? There wasn't any probing.

Man, I dunno about this, Yuka-tan ...

[shiverrrrs do not want probing]

Hey, where are we going, anyway?

Back to the Northern Lights. It's a bar.

...and, um, you're probably not gonna believe me. But...Shinjiro-senpai runs it.

[DEAD STOPPING AGAIN]

... No friggin' way.

[ Just a reluctant nod here. Yyyyyep. ]

How is that even possible? He's - we saw him -

[deaaaad bleedin' all over the sidewalk yep]

That's just how this place works, Junpei. The scientists can do that.

[ She glances uneasily down the street; it's way too quiet. ] Come on, we've gotta hurry.

[picking up the pace a little - oh wait. random thought time. if there's scientists and they're bringing people back from the dead ... ]

Did they like ... Frankenstein him or somethin'?

...

No, they just brought him back. Kinda like Recarm.

... Oh.

[herp derp]

So, wait - these scientist dudes have Personas too?

No, they've just-- I don't know. Geez, you're full of questions.

[ But the Lights is getting closer, and she nods him towards it. ] There's the bar. I'll answer everything else later, okay?

Well, it's not like I've been here before or anything.

[and he stops again, clearly hesitant. bars mean alcohol, and - yeah, that's not a fun happy thing for junpei. ever.]

Uh ... hey, are you sure it's such a good idea for us to be hanging around in a bar? We're kinda underage.

[ YEAH, ABOUT THAT, TOO. She doesn't know about this, of course, just waving a hand dismissively. ]

It's fine, since senpai runs it. We're gonna go straight into the back anyway.

[HAHAHA oops. >_<]

Well ... I guess. Since it's Senpai ...

[he's still EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE with this idea ... but it's not like there's anywhere else to go, right? so he'll reluctantly resume following yukari into the bar.]

[ Weird...though now she thinks of it, Junpei never had drank in her experience, had he? She always just figured it was fear of Mitsuru.

Oh well. Into the bar! ]

Here we are. The apartment building we'll be staying at is just a block or two away; Horton. We can't go back there right now, but there should still be a room for you between me and Shinjiro-senpai.

[have you ever seen junpei look this jumpy? prrrrrrobably not. he'll be looking around very distracted-like now.]

When can we go there?
