Ahh Hinoto-Ri. City of lights, questionable wards, the 13th Hour and Personas.

SCENARIO 1
We hope you arrived in warm clothing because if not you'll sure be in for a surprise!

Hinoto-Ri is covered in snow! First you show up in a strange new place and now you're freezing cold. Maybe it's just a dream? But...you remember the man who said you were here as a special guest...don't you? Is this the city you're supposed to save?

SCENARIO 2
But tonight, there's a very old time feeling. That's right, there's a party!

It seems some demons got their hands on older musical classics. As you walk the streets tonight, you'll find the city getting into it, complete with outfits and dancing demons.

...what a way to first show up. But is this just a dream? You remember the man who said you were here as a special guest...don't you? You just hope he didn't mean some sort of dancing contest...

[[OOC - Welcome to the test post! Don't worry too much about Persona stats or your levels here, just come out and make up a scenario about what they are doing. Try out your potentials and interact with the city around you! We'll supply some NPCs once in a while when you least expect it (after all have to test those out too, right?)]]

Naminé!

[Light, how had she not noticed her presence before now?! She must've been much too preoccupied trying to find someplace warm to have the thought even occur to her...]

I only just saw you a moment ago, didn't I? Where are we?

[The sentence is riddled with her teeth chattering, whole body shivering with the cold temperature.]

No, we...

[The question hurts more than it should, and she reluctantly pulls away, rubbing at her eyes. She wants to tell her everything. But here isn't the place to do it. So she contents herself with the fact that Kairi is here for the foreseeable future, and turns her attention to warming her up instead. She starts shedding off her jackets and handing them over.]

We're in a city called Hinoto-Ri. I have a lot to catch you up on, but let's go to my apartment first, okay?

[She holds out a hand, and a Corridor of Darkness opens up before them.]

[The confusion on her face is evident, but she doesn't question Naminé's decision to move them before they chat. Kairi happily accepts the jacket with no objections, holding it around herself tightly as her teeth continue to chatter. She really hoped this excursion in the cold wouldn't land her with a bad cold-- her body had enough to deal with already.]

Alright, let's go.

[She gently grasps the other girls hand, giving her a small reassuring squeeze, before moving to walk into the portal.]

[She gives Kairi's hand a squeeze back and walks in after her. Naminé's apartment appears on the other side, warm and cozy.]

I'll go get some blankets and make some tea. You can go into my room and change into some dry clothes, and then we can talk.

[Naminé pauses after she speaks, taking another good look at Kairi before giving her a tearful smile.]

I'm so glad you're here.

[She smiles back, trying to send Naminé as many warm feelings as possible.]

I'm glad to be here, too.

[And she couldn't help but feel a little hopeful that they weren't the only two here. Maybe the rest of their friends have escaped to this new place as well, where their collars were deactivated and there was nothing but real sky above them and real ground below them... Though she was still confused on how they got here, or whether that dream she had before she woke up in the snow was real or not.]

I'll be right back.

[It doesn't take her long to identify the door to Naminé's room, considering how small the apartment was. Stripping down out of her wet clothes, Kairi borrows a few extra clothes hangers from the other girls closet to carefully hang up her own (don't wanna get the floor wet, after all), and picks out the first clothing item to catch her attention, a simple sun dress. She slips the jacket back on over her shoulders once she's done changing, and pulls the rubber-band out of her hair as she walks back into the main living area, fingers running through to try and pry apart the frozen locks.]

[By the time Kairi comes back, the tea is ready, along with some muffins that had been warmed in the microwave. Nami is sitting on the couch, intently watching her bedroom door as if afraid that Kairi might somehow disappear if she doesn't. When her other steps out, she visibly relaxes.]

[She sits down next to Naminé, curling her feet under her and smiling reassuringly.]

Don't worry, I'm still here.

[She places a hand on the other girls, squeezing softly.]

I guess I have a lot to catch up on, huh?

[She grips Kairi's hand in hers, nodding slowly. It will be a monumental task, getting Kairi caught up, but they have time to take it slow.]

You have no idea.

I guess I should start from the beginning. Which, for you, was when you left. [She takes in a deep breath.] When you said it was just a moment ago since you saw me-- that moment for me was was half a year ago. You were terminated on your birthday.
