Meet, greet and eat

[titanianblade]

(To be perfectly honest, Cornelius didn't expect to find other persona users outside of himself and Guzma. The head of the Skull gang was a stroke of luck, but to have found so many others who can tap into that power and help fight off the shadows...it's a welcome relief.

Not to mention the large, large expansion to Cornelius' circle of friends.

So what's a rich kid to do when he's happy to have an extended circle like this? Throw down. A bunch of money to get everyone nice and fed for a day. He arranged for a catered picnic and invited his fellow persona-users and any friends they wanted to bring along. There's a bit of something for everyone, so pizzas, sandwiches, whatever, really. It's a large, open space, too, of anyone's in the mood for playing around. Just like the food, there's plenty of options there.

Cornelius would be lying if he said he wasn't thrilled to have so many people to hang out with. He just hopes they'll have fun while they're here.)

Hm... Maybe. It's on a list of places I want to visit.

[yaboyguzma]

It's real sunny most days too, so you wanna be armed with one of those umbrellas of yours. But definitely stick your toes in the sand and sit on any of the beaches for a while. Changes a man. ...Or a woman, in this case.

Where you from?

[bloodinbloom]

Hehe...

Hm, well, I guess I was born in Maine? That's where daddy adopted me anyway. And before here, we lived outside of Puebla City.

[yaboyguzma]

Puebla... Mexico, then. -- Wait. They take a girl like you near the freaking Equator!?

[bloodinbloom]

They did, but we leaved close to the mountains so it wasn't so bad.

[yaboyguzma]

Oh. Huh. ...Well... welcome to this group of assholes. Corndawg's a decent guy, but we're supposed to save the city or something?

[bloodinbloom]

Yes! I heard! I'll be providing you guys support when you go into a dungeon with my Persona. Or whenever a Shadow pops up in the city, I'll be able to help locate it.

[yaboyguzma]

Hmh... what about looking for people inside?

[bloodinbloom]

I can do that too. Though, I'll need to know a little about them in order to locate them.

[yaboyguzma]

[It wasn't his story to tell. Most of his members were runaways, strays from society, and some... some had stories he promised to keep so locked up tight that he wasn't sure what to do if they went missing.]

...That sucks. Not just a name or a face, huh? I wonder why.

[bloodinbloom]

Well, I just need an idea of their person. Nothing like... super extensive background sort of thing?

[yaboyguzma]

[That brought him pause, drumming his fingers on the table.]

...If that's the case... then I think I can make it work.

See, I don't care much for the city. Shocker, I know, but listen: The Dragons are all wrapped up in this crap, too, and that keeps them outta my hair. Problem is, whatever's going on is taking my little bros and little sisters and locking them up in shit I promised them would never happen again. I promised them safety.

So until we nip this dumb copycat whatever, my job's getting Skulls back in Tokyo. Your power would expedite things and maintain the huna I've worked so hard to guard.

[bloodinbloom]

Leave it to me, Boss! I'll make sure we rescue ever one of your siblings!

[She easily understood adopted family and was determined.]

Hm... but that's been the weird thing, right? It hasn't been a copycat, but multiple ones, right? But we can't leave everyone trapped in their dungeons when they're forced in...

[yaboyguzma]

That's why I'm packing calories! I can work overtime and keep the Skulls out of harm's way. Every one I pull out, the bigger my little army gets.

I mean, look at 'em. There's still some unaccounted for, but a good number can call up weird head-god things.

I'm successful. Of course I am. Ya boy just needs to keep it up.

[bloodinbloom]

Right! Eat up, Boss!

[Hopefully, he would make sure to balance his diet later.]

And you will! We'll save everyone!

[yaboyguzma]

S'right! You keep that up, Little Sister, and you're on your way up among the Skulls.

[What are you getting yourself into, girl.]

[bloodinbloom]

I am? Wow!

[She had no idea.]

[yaboyguzma]

Why not? The media might say we cut each other up or fight or whatever, but we're a family... that's something no Dragon can attest to.

Besides, who wants to be a big-ass smelly lizard or ink that shit on your body?

Anyway, I'll hit you up when I pick up on any other leads. It's about time I pulled up those lures to check for fish.

[bloodinbloom]

You mean a tattoo? I don't know, I guess some people like it.

[She couldn't get one anyway.]

You got it! If I find anyone from what you discover, I'll inform the others.
