Hey, hey guys! Quick shout out to this chapter's contributors for the interview! RosyMiranto18 and adtauthor22. You guys are awesome! People like you are the reason that I'm still writing this fanfic! Also, we just reached chapter 10! Break out the champagne! The next new OC won't be appearing in a while so hang tight! I will make two chapters in celebration of this both are part of the plot, but I wanted to do it. On a side note, has anyone read aiyumi's The Queen's plan? I've just read the latest chapter and really enjoyed it. Give it a read if you have the time! Tell me if you want me to do this, publishing two chapters at a time.
CHAPTER 10
Everyone stood there as Suzuki's parents jumped off the building at the same time; their necks making a horrible sound as the rope caught them. Time stopped for the six of them; everybody around them started to run, scream or call the police. The teenagers stared at the bodies as their chains disappeared without a trace. The trio stayed there even after the police had taken down the bodies and questioned them. Only after the commotion died down, did they go to the subway station.
The boys sat on either side of Mikan; the only noise being the subway train passing through the tunnel; the air filled with tension, confusion and despair. Johei finally took a hammer to the glass window of that silence.
"What do you think caused them to do that?"
Kazuhiko stood silent for a moment, then answered.
"They had chains on them that disappeared once they died. Suzuki-chan's death was the same."
Mikan's eyebrows curved into a confused state.
"Wait, you saw chains on her? How?" Mikan asked.
Johei questioned this as well.
"Yeah! I was the closest to her at the time, but I didn't see any chains."
Kazuhiko sighed and sat back with his arms crossed and his eyes closed.
"Believe it or not, I saw them. I even told you guys too, but you didn't believe me."
Johei thought back and remembered.
"Oh yeah, I remember. I thought you were seeing things."
Tyr began shifting slightly, as if he was nervous. Kazuhiko saw this and asked him a question.
"Hey, Tyr. Do you know about any of this?"
Tyr was about to speak until Johei spoke up.
"Wait a minute! Those chains looked just like ours!"
Mikan and Kazuhiko turned to Johei in astonishment. Loki took it upon himself to make fun of this.
"Wow! You actually used your brain for once!"
Johei was about to yell at Loki, but thought better of it. Other people were in their car and would see him yelling at thin air. There was no point in having people call a hospital on him now. Mikan recovered from her shock.
"Yes, you're right. Those chains you two had on your wrists looked a lot like the ones Suzuki's parents had."
Kazuhiko knew that this couldn't be a coincidence. The cause of death, the same suicide spot, the chains disappearing, even that they were Suzuki-chan's parents. There was no way that it couldn't be noticed.
"Well, maybe we should check the Mirror Dimension if there is anything happening in there" Skadi said.
The rest of the party nodded in agreement and made sure to meet up with each other after school tomorrow. Once they reached their stop, the three pairs went their separate ways. Kazuhiko soon found himself talking to Tyr again.
"Kazuhiko, are you sure it's a good idea to keep Pyro Jack?" Tyr asked.
"Yes, I'm sure. He's the only one who can use fire spells, currently. We need to keep our arsenal large in case we run into some problems." Kazuhiko answered
Tyr didn't seem happy with this.
"But Kazuhiko, haven't you noticed anything different ever since you summoned him?"
Kazuhiko's eyebrows curved.
"What do you mean?"
"Well, he and I are a part of you. We both can speak to you. I tend to be the only one that can be seen outside of the Mirror Dimension and he can't but he can still say things."
"Tyr, what are you trying to say?"
"Let's just say that his puns are even worse than Loki's."
"What are you talking about? Hee-hoo!" Pyro Jack asked inside Kazuhiko's head.
"You don't know Jack about me! Hee-hoo!"
"And there's my proof." Tyr said.
"… Okay, I'll see if there's a way to get rid of him."
Velvet Room
"There isn't a way to get rid of him." Igor said to Kazuhiko.
Okay! I think another part of me just died by hearing that. Kazuhiko thought.
"However, there is a way to fuse Personas to make new ones out of those you have."
Wait! Hold on! It's breathing again! We need medics on the scene! Now!
Kazuhiko let out a sigh of relief. He had been enduring way too many puns in one lifetime.
"It requires more then one Persona to fuse, so please come back to us when you have procured another Persona." Alexandria said.
Kazuhiko nodded and stepped out of the courtroom, leaving Alexandria and Igor alone to themselves.
"Master, you said before that he had acquired a Persona before stepping foot in here. He even acquired the ability of the wild card. If that is true, why does he not have more Personas. Personas that are stronger in fact." Alexandria asked Igor.
Igor smiled at her.
"Alexandria, you truly are the most accomplished assistant I have ever had in the time that I was the master of this room. Maybe looking into the past shall answer your questions. Kazuhiko's journey had to have started somewhere."
Alexandria bowed to him.
"Then, if you will excuse, I shall be making my way to the archives."
Alexandria walked to the next room but was stopped by Igor.
"Alexandria… whatever knowledge you discover in there about the current guest's situation, do not tell him anything about it. Knowledge comes with a price."
Alexandria nodded in understanding, then opened the door to the room with the archives. Igor continued to sit in his chair. He sighed deeply.
"Elizabeth… Theodore… Margaret… Lavenza… You four have always been my assistants in times of need. Though you have no more siblings among you, I hope that she shall do as well as you all."
(After School)
4:23 PM
Mikan's Home
"*Sigh*, what a day!" Mikan said.
After she apologized to her grandparents, she went up to her room and fell on her bed. Skadi was right beside her and stayed floating while she watched her close her eyes.
"Mikan, are you sure we can trust our comrades?" Skadi asked her.
Mikan looked back at Skadi questionably.
"What do you mean? Of course we can trust them. I've known Johei forever and Kazuhiko is trustworthy enough. He protected me from thugs on his first day here."
Skadi nodded.
"I know we can trust them, but I was talking about their Personas. Tyr, I know well enough. He'll be alright. Loki on the other hand..."
Mikan sat up.
"You can beat him up really bad. To the point where his screen said that there were many areas of physical damage and that they needed to be replaced. Why are you so worried about him?"
Skadi sat on the ground and sighed, as if she was used to being the only one to see the true nature of Loki.
"He's an evil person! He tricked people into killing one another! He was the one to cause Ragnarok! He isn't any different now!" Skadi ranted.
"Well, if he is like what you say he is, wouldn't he have killed someone already? I mean, Johei does live with him, but the most he ever does is play pranks and dish out horrible puns." Mikan said.
"B-But-!" Skadi protested.
Mikan held up her hand to stop Skadi from saying anything else.
"He's a good person now! He's a part of Johei. Johei would make pranks that might go too far but he wouldn't kill somebody for the experience. He's rational and he's got his heart in the right place. Besides, if Loki does anything, you can just beat him up again."
Skadi slumped in defeat.
"Fine. BUT! If he goes out of line, I am going to end his life!" Skadi said.
Skadi waited for Mikan to answer back, but then realized that she fell asleep.
(After School)
Same time
Johei's Apartment.
"Okay! Looks like you're all good!" Johei said as he stepped back and admired his handiwork.
Loki was sitting down. His monitor was slightly cracked, but the seemed to work well enough. For some reason, his face always glitched back to the troll face icon, but Johei decided it would be better off to just leave it.
"Thanks! Boy am I glad to have this thing working again!" Loki said as he changed the background on the monitor to his usual Tom Hiddleston smile.
Loki stood up again and floated on his back while Johei walked into the part of his apartment that was a kitchen, dining room and study all in one. He opened his refrigerator and put away the takeout box with leftovers from Shigure's. He always made a habit of saving leftovers so he wouldn't have to cook.
"So, what's the beef between you and Elsa?" Johei asked as he walked back into the living room to get his backpack.
Loki fidgeted and his monitor face changed to an applicable moving face that looked unsure.
"Well… It's not like I have to tell you..." Loki started.
"Tell me or I'm Googling you." Johei interrupted.
"Alright! Fine!" Loki surrendered.
"It was Egir's feast. She didn't completely trust my presence there, because I'm the god of trickery."
Johei sat back in his seat and crossing his arms.
"One thing led to another, I made a joke about her being nicer with me in bed-"
"Whoa! You made a dumb mistake like that to a person like her?! Man, no wonder she hates you." Johei interrupted.
Loki's monitor glared at Johei.
"Uh, sorry. Go on."
"Well, after that comment and many more insults, the gods tied me to a huge rock that they… covered with the guts of my son. They turned my other son into a wolf, and had my wife stand over me with a bowl that was being filled snake venom that she would be forced to pour on my face."
Johei stood silent for many seconds, actually feeling sentiment for Loki.
"But that's not really me! I'm just based off of that Loki! I'm just given that name and some characteristics that we both share! Nothing serious!" Loki said; his monitor changing to a 'What? Me worry?' face and back to his default picture.
Johei rolled his eyes.
"Well, whatever it is. Tomorrow, we're gonna do something with your 'lady problems' and make sure that this team can function normally." Johei said while taking out his homework.
Loki laid back again, careless as ever, and began to plot some getaway plans in case Johei's peace treaties didn't work.
(After School)
Same time
Kazuhiko's room
Kazuhiko sat in his chair at his desk, a textbook in his hand. Tyr floated beside him, trying to read the book as well, but made no such progress.
"Kazuhiko, I'm not sure if I understand this part. What does it mean?" Tyr asked.
Kazuhiko sighed.
"Tyr, you don't have to do this. Could you find something else to do? I really need to concentrate on this part here."
Tyr nodded and floated to another part of the room.
"What do you think caused her parents to hang themselves?"
Kazuhiko stopped reading for a moment. He had seen death before; when he was young, his grandfather died. He was on his death bed and the computer that monitored his heart beat went blank. Kazuhiko remembered staring at his grandfather with tears in his eyes. He never seen any chains on him.
"I don't know, Tyr. Whatever it is, it has something to do with the Mirror Dimension."
Flashing back to when the six were on the subway, Kazuhiko remembered Johei's statement.
"Those chains looked just like ours!"
Yes, something in the mirror dimension must have caused them to commit to suicide. What in that world could have made them do this? Kazuhiko sat back up in his chair and continued to read his textbook.
"Besides that subject, we have much more pressing matters to deal with. The most obvious being Loki and Skadi."
Kazuhiko nodded without looking up from his book.
"Yeah, that is true. If those two can't get along, our group would easily fall apart before we even run into any shadows."
Kazuhiko mused the idea. Loki and Skadi getting into a fight while they were surrounded by shadows. Well, mainly Skadi was holding Loki up and punching him repeatedly, but it would still be bad news.
"I sure hope those two are over their squabbles by tomorrow."
(Morning)
August 14, 2021
Kyuto High, Room B-2
7:20 AM
"So, how are those two doing?" Kazuhiko asked.
Johei looked relieved when he came into the classroom. He had talked things over with Mikan and was able to make a ceasefire agreement with Skadi and Loki.
"Okay, somehow. Skadi promised not to kill Loki if he didn't try any pranks with her or Mikan..." Johei said.
"I'm sensing a 'but' here."
Johei sighed.
"Apparently, Loki can still play pranks on other people. Skadi is now an avenger of the people."
In the distance, Kazuhiko could hear a girl screaming, Loki laughing and several connected punches.
"Well, at least we can properly explore the Mirror Dimension." Tyr said optimistically.
Loki floated back into the classroom with a slightly cracked screen, but still okay.
"Hey guys! We going to that place today or what?" Loki said.
Kazuhiko sighed. Today is going to be a long day.
(After School)
3:24 PM
Mirror Dimension
The entire group stood in front of one person.
"So, I'm guessing something happened?" Hayabusa asked.
Kazuhiko nodded.
"Another person committed suicide and they happened to be the parents of the first girl that committed suicide."
Hayabusa put his hand to his chin, or at least the bottom of his falcon mask, and turned the other way, mumbling to himself.
"So, something big has finally happened..."
Johei walked up behind Hayabusa.
"Uh, are you okay? Is there something you need to tell us?"
Hayabusa turned around and faced everyone again.
"Follow me." He said, and walked in another direction.
Johei turned back to everyone, his gaze asking if they should follow him. Kazuhiko nodded to Mikan and they walked until they matched Hayabusa's pace.
"The only time this place is dangerous is when something big is happening on your side." Hayabusa said, not faltering his pace.
Kazuhiko nodded.
"Something like this always happens; shadows come out and begin to devour the true emotions of mankind. These emotions become theirs and they form even more powerful shadows; They create their own self consciousness and run rampant. Eventually, they need to be put down, but if they are not given the proper care for, they return to the person of their origin and make them fall into despair. This results in them doing drastic actions."
Johei stopped Hayabusa for a moment.
"So, that's why Suzuki-chan's parents killed themselves? Because someone on this side destroyed their shadows and they weren't nurtured?"
Hayabusa nodded.
"Precisely."
The party kept walking in silence; Hayabusa not saying anything else after explaining the situation. Finally, they stopped.
"This is it." Hayabusa said as they took in their surroundings.
They stopped in front of a large ditch where there were only four bridges to get to the middle. At the center, there was a large tower, each floor looking different from the next. The higher the floors got, the more intense the concentration of shadows seemed to be. The tower was so tall that they couldn't see the top because it pierced through the clouds. The six stared at it stunned, whereas Hayabusa looked at it as if it were a regular sight to him.
"This" He said,"is Niflheim.".
There were several good moments of silence before Mikan spoke.
"Is this another shadow nest?"
Hayabusa shook his head.
"Your average shadows nest consists of shadows that haven't devoured a humans emotions. Niflheim is home of all the shadows that have grown stronger through their human counterparts. You can feel so much despair from here, that if you went in there without a Persona, you would be guaranteed to go mad."
Kazuhiko took note of Hayabusa's lack of a Persona.
"I take it you've never been in there before."
Hayabusa's gaze fell, as if that were a touchy subject with him.
"It is… impossible for me… I cannot gain a Persona… "
Impossible? Kazuhiko thought, Personas are the strength of a humans heart, the ability to overcome despair. The only thing that would stop one from having a Persona is because they are a Persona themselves or…
Kazuhiko came to a realization and pulled out his sword. He pointed it at Hayabusa accusingly. Everyone else looked shocked. Whereas Hayabusa sighed.
"Tell us what you really are, Hayabusa." Kazuhiko said.
Hayabusa refused to return Kazuhiko's glare.
"Whoa, Kaz! What's going on?"
"Hey, hey, hey. Put the sword down."
"Kazuhiko, I don't think that he poses a threat to us."
"Is there something wrong?"
"He can't have a Persona?"
Kazuhiko gritted his teeth and yelled at Hayabusa.
"Well? Are you going to tell us straight out? Or am I going to have to tell them myself?"
Hayabusa shook his head.
"I'll tell you all the truth. But I can assure you that I don't pose a threat to you all."
Everyone was left in the dark.
"The only beings that can have Personas are humans, there is no exception. I cannot have a Persona because… I am not human." Hayabusa said, his voice shaking.
Johei and Loki stepped back in shock. Mikan and Skadi brought up their weapons defensively. Kazuhiko still held his sword up while Tyr tilted his head confusedly.
"I was born when I devoured the emotions of a small boy. Before that, I was just another hostile slime on the ground that are called shadows."
I thought so.
Tyr stopped Kazuhiko for a moment.
"Wait! He helped us fight those shadows! Doesn't that mean that he doesn't want to hurt us?"
Kazuhiko hated that Tyr was right. Even without a Persona, Hayabusa was able to take out shadows with ease matching or even excelling all of their skills. If he wanted them dead, he would have killed them the second they stepped in.
"Tch- alright then." Kazuhiko said as he sheathed his sword.
Hayabusa remained unmoving as the rest of the party alligned themselves in a more secure way, as if to ensure that Hayabusa couldn't attack them. One last thing itched at Kazuhiko's mind, though.
"Wait, if you're a shadow, why do you hunt your own kind?" Kazuhiko asked.
Hayabusa took some time to himself then answered.
"I guess that it was the emotions of the boy that I had devoured as a shadow. He wanted to make a difference in the world. To protect others. That boy was very pure hearted. That is why I will do anything to prevent people from your side from being dragged down by despair."
Kazuhiko nodded, satisfied. Mikan began to form questions of her own.
"But if you're a shadow, and you can't have a Persona, then you can't possibly be causing this commotion in our world. The question now is, who is doing this?"
This was a very valid point. Because Hayabusa couldn't fight shadows that devoured emotions, he couldn't take one down and condemn it to committing suicide. So, who could?
"Wait, we are the only ones who can take down shadows like that." Loki said.
"Doesn't that mean that whoever caused these suicide incidents have the ability to come into this world and have a Persona?"
Everyone looked at Loki, shocked.
"Uh, did I say something wrong?" Loki asked again.
"No, no. That actually is a valid point." Johei said.
"And to follow that up," Mikan added.
"The only people that can use Personas are humans."
Hayabusa nodded.
"So the perpetrator must be from your world. Interesting..." Hayabusa said.
"In fact, if anybody was to be the root cause of this, you three would be the most likely!" Hayabusa said as he pointed his finger at the trio.
Mikan and Johei stepped back while Kazuhiko sighed.
"You were the one who awakened their Persona before everyone else! In fact, you never even faced you true emotions yet! You must be the one who caused all this suicide buisiness!"
Kazuhiko stared back at Hayabusa until he finished his ramblings.
"Look, I know I seem suspicious, but I'm new to this myself. Have no idea what's going on. Besides, I've only been here for less than a week."
"B-but!" Hayabusa retorted.
Then, another voice joined the conversation.
"I can't believe how stupid you all are!"
Everyone turned around and saw a person clothed in a black hoodie. The hood covered his face, but the voice was able to tell them that the person was male. The person continued to talk in his cocky and mocking voice.
"You're all accusing each other, but it turns out that the real perp is right in front of you!"
Kazuhiko and Johei finally began to remember the person, or at least remember the last time they saw a person dressed in a similar fashion.
"You're… " Kazuhiko said.
The person shook his head.
"Nope, I'm not the person you saw before when you were in that shadow nest. Although I do know him. Don't worry, I'm not here to fight you, more like to enlighten you!"
Mikan aimed her crossbow at the person, ready to fire when he gave any provocative movements, and asked him.
"And what are you here to tell us, besides the fact that you're behind this."
The figure shook his finger at Mikan.
"Tsk tsk tsk. You got one thing wrong, and that happens to be what I'm here to tell you about. You see, I'm not the only one behind this. I'm part of a big group! Hundreds of us! Those shadows in that nest you fought through are even weaker than our pawns!"
Kazuhiko couldn't believe his ears. The fact that they were outnumbered almost immediately was unbearable. The fact that they were even more powerful than the normal shadows he was accustomed to, was what made him feel helpless.
Johei, being himself, denied the fact.
"No way! There's no way in hell that's true!" Johei yelled.
The figure, seeing this as an opportunity, provoked him.
"In fact, I can take all of you on by myself! You know the best part? I'm the weakest commander."
"Persona!"
Johei shattered his chains and Loki sent a powerful garu whirlwind towards the figure. The figure sighed as if he was bored and snapped his fingers. The garu connected, but not with the figure. Instead, a Persona like creature blocked the attack. It looked as if it was a regular Persona; it had long flowing white hair, a metallic mask covering the lower half of it's face, was clothed in a mottled robe that was all sorts of green and brown colors and in one of it's hands, it held a weighing scale.
"Well, looks like you're a feisty one!"
The figure formed chains on his wrists and broke them.
"Vidar! Makajam!"
The Persona's scale tipped to one side and a blast was sent to Johei and Loki, sending them flying back. Mikan quickly ran to Johei's side.
"Johei! Are you alright?"
Johei opened his mouth and moved his lips, but no sound came out. He noticed this and tried harder to speak but nothing happened.
"He's been silenced!" Hayabusa said as he drew his rapier.
The figure put his hands behind his head and leaned back.
"Don't worry! I'm not gonna hurt you unless you take a shot at me. Besides, I'm only here to talk. Now that I've finished what I came here for, I'll be off."
And with that, the figure turned around and walked off. Kazuhiko caught a glimpse of the back of his hoodie before he disappeared. It was an imprint of a circle with many runes on the perimeter, and three triangles interlocking each other. Soon, Johei got back up.
"… itch! I'll finish him off anyday of the week!"
"Oh, you can talk again." Kazuhiko noted as Johei realized that his voice had returned.
Loki groggily got up.
"Oh, man. That was a really low blow there. Can't he fight us head on?"
"If he did, you would have killed us all." Skadi pointed out.
"Eh, fair point, General Armstrong."
"What does FullMetal Alchemist have to do with… Oh you are so dead!" Skadi yelled as she punched Loki to the ground
"Ow."
"Guys! Quit fighting!" Johei yelled at them.
Kazuhiko turned to Hayabusa.
"Well, I guess that we're on the same side for now." Kazuhiko said.
Hayabusa nodded.
"Yes. Once this place is wiped of their existence, The Mirror Dimension should revert to normal."
"More, on that, how can we contact you when something pops up?".
Hayabusa held out his hand. In it, was a phone. Kazuhiko tilted his head in confusion. He never expected for Hayabusa to have a phone, much less anybody in the Mirror Dimension. The only things with a certain amount of worth was the items that shadows dropped, and those tended to be metals, consumables or, on the rarest occasions, weapons and armor. Hayabusa continued to tap on his phone until he showed them all an app. Everybody took a moment until they realized that they had that exact same app before they entered the Mirror Dimension.
"This'll be enough to contact me. It works as a communications and navigation app, although I've only used the navigation part." Hayabusa said.
"I will see you all in the later future." And with that, Hayabusa ran off and disappeared in the distance.
Everybody was still together and decided to call a day. The six made their way to the mall mirror to get back to their world. On the way, they made some small talk.
"So, I heard that the school is planning on having some benchmarking tests this year to see if everybody is adequate." Mikan said.
"Wait, what?! They are?! Crap! I'm going to hae to go study once I get home! I can't get held back a grade! It'll ruin me!"
Johei began to frantically worry, whereas Kazuhiko kept a cool head.
"Doesn't the test only consist of subjects we learned last year? If you graduated last year, then you don't have anything to worry about." Kazuhiko pointed out.
Loki butted in for a moment.
"Well, I may not have been alive for a long time, but I've been around long enough to know that Johei doesn't have the best of grades. I wouldn't be surprised if he flunks the test and gets sent to a first year class."
Kazuhiko rolled his eyes and chuckled. This was the Johei he knew well; always brimming with talent and potential, but using it for pranks. He really could get good grades if he just set his mind to it. Skadi seemed to be disgusted.
"Hmph, and they let people like him have opportunities they don't deserve."
Mikan sighed.
"No need to be so rough on him, Skadi. He could do great things; It's just that he's still a kid."
"It would take a miracle to get him at least a decent grade." Kazuhiko said as he watched Johei freak out.
"Shut up!" Johei yelled at him.
Mikan sighed as she stood in front of the mirror.
"Well, if you aren't ready for the tests, then why not have a study session tomorrow?"
Kazuhiko nodded.
"Sounds good. I studied most of the subjects but I still have a few rough areas that I need help with."
Johei pressed his palms together and bowed on his knees.
"Please, Mika-senpai! I'll do anything for you to help me! Anything!"
Skadi lifted her eyebrow.
"Anything, you say?"
Oh no, Kazuhiko thought, This is not going to end well.
So, there you have it! The mysterious hooded person is partially behind it all. Sorry for the late update, but I was working on two chapters as well as getting a slight writers block. I know it's not a good excuse so I'll do my best to update as fast as I normally do. Now, without further ado, please welcome Mikan Echihiro!
Dangstaboy: Hello everybody! Welcome back to the after show where I will be interviewing Mikan Echihiro!
Mikan: A … studio?
Dangstaboy: Quite right, Echihiro-san. Here's the gist of it. You're a character of my fanfiction, Persona: One Last Promise. You don't really exist, sorry to be blunt.
Mikan: (sigh) I don't exist, right?
Dangstaboy: Correct.
Mikan: And you're talking to me.
Dangstaboy: Yes.
Mikan: … Does this mean that this isn't really happening?
Dangstaboy: … Let's move on to the questions, okay?
Mikan: Alright then.
Dangstaboy: So, these first few questions will be from RosyMiranto18. What do you think of the kanji that I gave to you. Yeah give me a second, I'll display it on the screen. Here you go, you can read the comment for it.
英一郎 美艦: Beautiful Ship
Mikan: Wow! I feel like it really describes me! I appreciate how this points towards my feminity and beauty. Although, I'm not that proud of my beauty. It really didn't help me at any times…
Dangstaboy: Well, onto the next question. "Who is 'HE' that you refer to that his death caused so much pain in your life". Sorry if I'm editing it wrong. I'm just doing the best I can to make this question more understandable.
Mikan: Well…
Dangstaboy: Whoops! Sorry, but I can't let you answer this question. It'll be a spoiler for your social link. Next question: "For Skadi, in your opinion, what is the most cruel punishment you can think of to Loki, without counting any snake or venom-related punishments? ;)"
Skadi: Well, I have thought of many punishments for him. The snake venom thing was just the most that Odin would allow me to do. If I had my way, I would either bind him to Fenrir, forcing the wolf to eat a part of him so that he wouldn't starve to death, whereas the next day, he would regrow that part of him but have the pain still fresh in him, or I would take a leaf from Greek mythology and force him to carry the tree, Yggdrasil, for all eternity and make him feed off of his own son's entrails to survive.
Dangstaboy: …
Mikan: …
Skadi: What? I'm just answering honestly.
Dangstaboy: O… kay, ignoring your obvious thirst for blood, let's move on. "For Skadi, For an idea. How about a 'Mystery Pancake X' that Loki helps to f*cks up? ;)"
Skadi: Mystery Pancake X? What's that?
Dangstaboy: For those who aren't aware of me, I have tried making a parody of Mystery Food X before. I can tell you that either the smell of it or the amount of cholesterol that you would get from eating it will kill you. I didn't have the balls to taste it.
Skadi: Well, if it is as horrendous as you put it, I guess I could use it for one of my punishments for Loki. That actually might disgust him even more than eating his son's guts.
Dangstaboy: Poor Loki. Next question. "For both Mikan and Skadi, I checked Skadi Wikipedia Profile when i found that Skadi is Mikan's Persona. In her profile, she was mentioned to be married with Odin after Skadi's marriage with Njordr fallen apartand they have alot of children together; however, When i read Odin's Profile, it was mentioned that Frigg is Odin's actual wife. In addition, interestingly, there's no mention of Frigg in Skadi's Profile and vice versa (there's no mention of Skadi in Frigg's Profile). So, what do you think about these statements. And to Skadi, what will you do if somehow Frigg is becoming someone's Persona? *whistles innocently*"\
Skadi: Ah, Frigg. She was a good person, and her children were very kind as well. Although, we didn't know that Odin was cheating on both of us until before Ragnarok. I don't remember a lot, but I do know that she and I are on good terms. We still have yet to talk with Odin. As for Frigg being somebody else's Persona, I'd be okay with it; the more people to keep Loki in check, the better.
Dangstaboy: Well said. Alright then. This one's for Mikan from adtauthor22. "Are you a fan of Danganronpa?"
Mikan: Yes, I am indeed a fan of that game. I was recommended it before and I tried a PC version of it. Strange how it's context is similar to our current situation. My favorite character is definitely Kazuichi Soda! He is just so funny in his actions and how he freaks out. Although, I believe there is a person like him that I know. Cough cough (Johei) cough cough.
Dangstaboy: Yeah, I actually kind of based him off of Soda slightly. Well, next one. "Do you drown yourself in your sorrows?"
Mikan: No, I don't. If you're talking about alcohol, definitely not. I can't hold alcohol very well. When I was little, my grandparents thought it would be a good idea to teach me not to like alcohol. They gave me a sip of watered down wine and I started to feel drunk. Not ever touching the stuff again in my life.
Dangstaboy: Good message, Mikan. Remember everyone, especially gamers in the house, don't ever do drugs or alcohol! Even if you're depressed from playing Dark Souls. Real winners don't do drugs!
Mikan: Yep! You got it!
Dangstaboy: Alright, we only have a few more questions to go! The rest are from a person named TeddieBear345. "Do you have a boyfriend?"
Mikan: Excuse me?
Dangstaboy: Uh, maybe shouldn't have asked that one, Next question; "Have you ever smooched anyone before?"
Mikan: What?
Dangstaboy: Not that one either. Next one; "Where are you ticklish"?
Skadi: I'm starting to wonder if these are really your questions.
Dangstaboy:They're not! I swear they aren't. Last one before this show closes; "Can I stay at your house next time"? Okay that's it! Who filled the reviewed section with these questions?
Teddie: I did!
Dangstaboy: What the heck are you doing here Teddie?! You're not supposed to be here until the later chapters!
Teddie: I couldn't help but notice the lovely ladies that I was missing out on that I decided to make an early entrance!
Mikan: … Skadi, get a bufudyne ready.
Skadi: What scum.
Teddie: Oh! You have a Persona too! And she can use ice spells? Even more we have in common! This is- wait, what's she doing?
Skadi: Bufudyne!
Teddie: Ah! Help! Make her stop! Help!
Teddie, Mikan and Skadi run into the far off areas of the set.
Dangstaboy: … cut the connection.
