The Whimsical Adventures of Aigis
Dear Reader,
I hope this letter finds you well. I found it difficult to figure out your address and was uncertain of how many stamps to put on, so Fuuka is helping me. She's been so kind. Ever since I moved in with her, she's helped with all sorts of problems, like when I had avoided going to one of the Kirijo labs for a check-up and my legs fell off. I tell her that she has learned more about my anatomy than is usual for anyone I know, but for some reason she gets embarrassed by this. I greatly enjoy living with her, and am glad to repay her kindness by letting me stay here whenever I can. Did I ever tell you about the time we got lost in a bad neighbourhood and I jabbed a man with over 250,000 volts of electricity? I was built with that ability in order to incapacitate threats non-lethally, so I did not think it unusual to do so, but Fuuka informed me afterward that it is not normal for someone to lay prone in an alley looking like Junpei when he accidentally cast Agilao on himself. She complained that it would take her weeks to wash out the burning smell on her clothing, but to be extremely frank, she smells like burnt flesh whenever she cooks anyway.
I'm not sure if my last letter managed to reach you, perhaps because I did not send it. Regardless, I have greatly enjoyed university life. It brought me a terrible sadness to leave my friends at the Iwatodai dorm upon graduation, apart from Yukari who was what you might call 'a bitch'. I was also disappointed upon arrival at the university that there was no 'Being Human' course for me to enroll in. I understand that third-level education is where people go to follow their dreams and ambitions and become skilled in a new field. My greatest desire is to accept myself as a human being, but so far I have found it hard, as I understand that most human beings do not have a set of headphones grafted to their head in place of ears. Luckily, Fuuka is currently studying Robotics and is making great strides in her field. She has taken to experimenting with me, but please do not tell anyone. When Junpei called one weekend to ask how life had been going, he found me saying that 'Fuuka and I have been experimenting in college' to be quite alarming. Why? I do not know.
Having an active social life is a vital part of the university experience, I've been informed. On the nights where Fuuka is busy with assignments, I visit the nearest Chagall Cafe and purchase an extremely overpriced cup of coffee that I do not drink. The experience is quite enjoyable, as I feel like I am truly able to blend in and conform with typical social norms. I attempted to visit the ladies' bathroom on one occasion to understand the experience and ran into a woman named Elizabeth, who told me she was 'a dear friend of a dear friend'. Although my Persona capabilities have gone unused for some time, I am still operational, and Elizabeth informed me that it was her responsibility to assist me in that matter whenever possible. It was wonderful making a new friend, especially one I have so much in common with. She has promised to go on a 'date' with me the next time she is free. I understand that is supposed to be a good thing.
As I am writing this to you, Fuuka has been preparing a welcome meal for her new roommate. I am not officially living in this apartment and do not take up much space, lying in bed with Fuuka as she sleeps to ensure she is safe. (She is not yet aware of this.) Her new roommate was delayed in moving in due to personal reasons but should have arrived by the time you receive this letter. Fuuka has warned me to be on my absolute best behaviour, saying that I must 'be as human and normal as possible so as to not scare Shirogane-san'. I do hope nothing goes wrong. I shall tell you what happens as soon as I can.
I believe today will be the best of days, for it is the day where I am today.
