Persona 5 Royal: tmdrago Special Edition
By Tayla Drago
Episode #137 - The Eternal Pearl
This turned out to be something big for the Phantom Thieves – Keiko, Morgana, Ryuji, Ann, Yusuke, Makoto, Futaba, and Haru 'same with Aika and Hitomi helping them out again' to also change Shido's heart by taking his Treasure to be a pin, getting the last gem to have all seven of the Brightful Gems now, Akechi was happy for his father will be brought to justice next, they celebrated; besides Keiko to visit her boyfriend next, and finally Shido wakes up to still be alive for the men in black and a few other people helped him up. He tries to kill himself to destroy his own Palace with our main heroes to not knowing when to quit even after having a change of heart! What a psychopath!
Secretary: Sir!
Shido: What have I...?
Secretary: Huh?
Okay, now he has a change of heart from almost dying there to have work by then.
Researcher: Is the medicine still affecting you?
And because of the battle he had of his Shadow self to be beaten and healed, he doesn't remember it at all.
Shido: Medicine...?
Secretary: Should we get him to the hospital?
Private Doctor: We should probably wait see a little longer...
I don't think they can do anything for him now, Shido was done for.
Shido: I-I...Ngh...I must...atone...
Started to cry for the others were shock to see that the Phantom Thieves have changed his heart for the better.
Assembly Man: No...Was his heart changed...?!
Researcher: Did the temporarily-death serum not work?
Secretary: Sir!
Those Men in Black and other greedy adults are done for now.
Assembly Man: If he's had a change of heart, will he blab everything about us?
Wealthy Man: Everything will be ruined!
Secretary: What are we supposed to do about his campaign...?
Assembly Man: Announce that he's not feeling well!
Hiding the truth from the law on all of you've done for a few years now won't get you guys anywhere to be caught soon.
Wealthy Man: Arranged a hospitalization in absolute secrecy! Don't let anyone near him!
Private Doctor: Yes, sir! Yes, sir!
Assembly Man: Keep the media out! Dammit, we have to do something...
How can they? This means game over to Shido and to all of them...Well, it would be until someone makes an appearance out of nowhere as Shido was sitting there crying, but she wasn't here to finish Shido off.
Lilith: Has the weak fallen to some teenagers with power and their dumb cat too...You're done for, Shido...
The other men see her.
Wealthy Man: Who goes there?!
She appears to be hiding in the shadows and then reappearing to them in the flesh as part of Queen Lilith's powers.
Lilith: Gentlemen...Put your rages aside from stopping me. Please listen to me for I may have the solution to all of our problems to have one thing done, and leave the rest to my lover and me. Now, shall we have a normal conversation?
What is she up to now...? It's one thing to find two spy Shadows later on, but Lilith's ten times worse. Trying to get the gems to get her hands on the pearl or what? Not good...Later as Keiko, Morgana, and Futaba return back to Leblanc from eating and then seeing Akechi, the entire place was trashed!
Morgana: What the-
The TV seems to be working fine to still be on with some news updates...
Newscaster: [Judging by his laceration, it would appear he was kidnapped, then killed at another location, and-]
Knowing the mess, Sojiro wasn't seen to be anywhere.
Keiko: Where's Mr. Sakura?
Futaba: Sojiro!
She rushes upstairs to try to find Sojiro, but with no luck.
Morgana: Don't tell me...
Futaba: I'm gonna get angry if you don't come out! Sojiro...Ah... *sob*
This makes Futaba sad to start crying to think of Sojiro being captured or killed. But...the door opens to see and hear a familiar person they know of.
Sojiro: Hey. Didn't know you guys were back.
Turning around, Sojiro was just fine to already feel scared for almost losing Ryuji and close to him!
Keiko: Mr. Sakura! You're OK!
Futaba: You're the same as Ryuji!
He's fine for Futaba to be worried to run up to her step-father to be hugging him. So...What did happen to Sojiro from the men in black?
Sojiro: What're you talking about...? I was taken to that asshole Shido's place, but they suddenly told me I could go home. That's thanks to his change of heart, right?
Keiko: It does sounds like it... (Good, none of the people who're closes to me didn't die. I'm so happy.)
Sojiro: Thought as much. They had be blindfolded the whole time, so I've got no idea where they took me...Though it sounded like they were oddly bustling about.
All was good then to have no more freaks out after it happened twice today.
Morgana: Looks like it's going well.
Sojiro: But man, my handsome mug was nearly ruined. That's all fine and dandy...But they really did a number on this place...
Keiko: But you're not hurt. Really, I'm glad they didn't do anything bad to you. As for Ryuji, he was almost killed...But he was very lucky to be send back to the real world when we stole Shido's heart for his Palace to go down.
Other than having a big mess at the cafe, it was cleaning time to be this late a little.
Sojiro: I suppose you're right...Sorry to bother you two when you're tired, but I need you to help me clean up.
Keiko: Of course. I don't mind.
Futaba: I'll help out too!
All was good to now wait for Shido to fully confess real soon 'on which he will within the month of December'.
Morgana: We just have to wait like usual now.
From cleaning to do as Sojiro and Futaba go on home to finally rest to hear about Shido's defeat, Keiko and Morgana take a shower 'one thing at a time' to get ready for bed after a very long day that was for the waiting to happen...From Aika, Hitomi, Kiwa, Daisuke, and Tohru all celebrate to do well aiding the other Phantom Thieves and stopping the master mind behind the mental shutdowns at long last; what a long journey that was.
Tohru: Well done, you two.
Daisuke: Yeah! We did it!
Kiwa: What a team effort. (I hope Kasumi's happy to hear the news later on.)
For the two main girls of Aika and Hitomi high fiver each other on another job well done.
Aika: and Hitomi: Nailed it.
A very close one to almost coast them their lives! They can still do Mementos requests while they're waiting until Shido does confess real soon.
[Ryuji: We finally did it.]
[Akechi: I can't thank you all enough for everything you've done for me and stopping Shido. Kiwa and the rest of the group are very pleased on doing a fine job as well.]
[Yusuke: We've done all we can.]
[Futaba: We started off with a huge announcement this time, after all! I can't wait for the results.]
[Ann: But all that popularity doesn't matter anymore.]
[Makoto: Right. Things like approval ratings aren't important now.]
[Ryuji: Yeah! We definitely did the right thing for society. we just gotta be proud about it, am I right?]
[Akechi: When I get better, I want to do more good as a detective my way, and not for any greedy adults to never make me to a show off again.]
[Keiko: Of course, we want to do more good for everyone else and not to be famous.]
[Haru: All that's left is to wait calmly for the results.]
Good to know from there.
Morgana: All right...We should act as normal as we can while we're waiting too.
Keiko: You got it, Morgana.
As Keiko group text messages the others about doing well to wait now and still celebrate to be back in the game again.
Morgana: All seven of the Brightful Gems that gave those with distorted hearts with False God powers but the last one...But who is it? Someone to be working for Queen Lilith?
Keiko: That's what I'm thinking about too if it's not her, Sith, the fake Shadow to look and act like Kiwa's cousin, or Loki...Other than seeing the Eternal Pearl next, let's go to sleep, Morgana. I'm tired...Good night.
Before heading to bed to get some sleep, Yuuki also texts Keiko on their fine work on Shido's defeat too.
[Yuuki: This is so intense! I never would've imagined you'd be going after Shido! It doesn't matter who the Phantom Thieves are going after! Justice is always on their side! I'm glad I kept the Phan-Site running through all the criticism too. I think I'll change up the survey question commemorate your comeback. I'll obviously be answering "YES" this time! I believe in you! Stay strong! Way a go, Amamiya.]
What a nice thing to say about them, huh? That's Yuuki for you.
Morgana: So Mishima aiding us a bit to much, but I guess he means well to the team.
Keiko: He's a great since we saved him from Kamoshida.
Morgana: Even without changing his heart. Not bad, heh. Good night, Madame Keiko.
As they sleep the night away and Keiko to visit the Velvet Room again for Igor, Caroline, and Justine wanted to say to something to the hero from her jail cell 'again'.
Keiko: Oh, hello to all three of you again. We have all seven of the gems to stop Queen Lilith next and the last False God besides Loki has been defeated...And Shido too for I'm now free as well as the Phantom Thieves' innocence to not be criminals to the world anymore...I just wanted you to guys know.
Good to know as one of the twin girls say this to Keiko next...
Caroline: I've reconsidered my opinion of you, Inmate!
Justine: The look on your face seems to be that of a woman who has accomplished a great deed.
From what Keiko has been through, it sure looks like it.
Igor: To think you would use the trap set against you, Ms. Trickster, to entrap them...I never seen a dramatic resurgence such as that.
Keiko: I guess I just got lucky.
Igor: Truly marvelous, my dear – those are the only words I can think of the describe you.
Keiko: So what happens next...? If you don't mind me asking you, Igor sir.
Will Keiko be free in a while or what?
Igor: Perhaps this will be easy on you? ...You, Ms. Trickster, even overcome a mysterious misfortune. There should be no one left to hinder your rehabilitation. Your rehabilitation will be completed shortly. That is...if everything goes well without any problems.
That won't happen for Keiko or her friends to not give up at all to keep on going...
Keiko: I will wait until then, sir. Besides getting other Persona's powers in a bit...I'll be waiting.
For him to be laughing to enjoy Keiko's success, it seem...all was going well for her to return back to the real world again and sleeping. As Morgana has the same dream again of him appearing to see the beast behind him to be doing something, from an odd shining bright feeling and someone who was wicked to try to murder someone in front of him. Huh!? Waking up to try to learn if his dream had something to do with his memories and about the Blood of Oath story of Queen Lilith as Atsuko Sakura and another Junko who's out there to be all true. From what we've been seeing so far from Morgana's strange dream, then what could this all mean?
Morgana: Damn. How many times have I had this dream...? Or...could it be that it's not a dream at all? My memories aren't any closer to coming back to me...But might there be something I'm suppose to remember...? ….If...If I'm really not human...And if the truth of that comes to pass down in the depths of Mementos, I...Could it be that I'll...Madame Keiko...
Being worried on what's to come for Morgana in the future to get that part down later to worry on what Keiko will think about all of this, just who was he? Really...? What is Morgana?

Day # 239 - December 12/4th – Sunday
As well as Yuuki was happy to hear the good news too by texting Keiko 'as well as another request to do later on' for her and Morgana place down the seven gems on the table to leave them be until they all figure out on how to form the Eternal Pearl next. That'll be a bit a tricky to do.
Operation Quest - The Head Honcho in Showbiz = Target (Shiro Asakura)
With other good news, the Phan-Site ratings are going back up to 9% now, awesome! As Keiko and Morgana buy a few things of the items to use later in Mementos throughout the rest of the night...To help out the fundraising on something at the store to do well tonight to earn some money.
Morgana: The more our team learns on other things, the stronger they'll become as Phantom Thieves or themselves.
Keiko: And the whole Phan-Site back to our ratings to not be criminals anymore, I'm glad.
This was sure making Yuuki happy about the Phan-Site was back up, huh? And Keiko then begins to read one of her books to while seeing a little news about the Phantom Thieves were still fighting for justice to be the proof. But what happens during the few day waiting on Shido's confession and such...? While Keiko goes out for Kiwa and Kasumi go on their date at the aquarium to be running better from Tohru's old co-workers to run it well with no black marketing going on, along with Morgana tagging along too.
Kasumi: So that's what happened...Wow, it must've been some bad. And you, Keiko-Senpai. It must've been scary.
Kiwa: A lot to happen, but we all pull through in the end.
From one backup team to another to all be true.
Morgana: And it's all thanks to my teaching.
Yeah, we'll let him get away with this one for now.
Keiko: I'm glad Akechi-Cun and me are in love to save him from Loki, even though I felt sorry for him. For Atsuko and Cthulhu along with Cait Sith will be stopped next. And...
Both Kiwa and Morgana say the last part together.
Morgana and Kiwa: The last False God.
Kasumi: Making it seven in total. I see...A traitor with a bad Shadow, all the gems to gather into a pearl, a woman book author who needs to move on acting like the fake Junko Sakurai, and the last of the seven False Gods. If you guys need any help, you know who to reach out to. Right, Kiwa?
Those two were cuddling together to really be in love.
Kiwa: Of course, Kasumi...! You are part of the team after all.
Kasumi: From my dreams to be finished and then helping out the Phantom Thieves in any way I can, I promise.
Sounds like a good pan there, Kasumi. Later at night time...Keiko text messages her friend after helping out Sojiro at the cafe once again 'to be her favorite thing to do'.
[Haru: I'm not sure why, but I feel restless for some reason...]
[Makoto: We managed to steal Shido's heart, but the reactions have been...less than ideal.]
[Yusuke: Yes, it has been quite difficult to relax.]
[Akechi: I suppose this is one way to face reality for everyone else, it'll hurt them more than the waiting we're all going through.]
[Ann: I wonder if people will be disappointed to find out what his true nature really is.]
[Futaba: It might be more than just plain old disappointment.]
[Ryuji: Either way, it's better that than let him keep deceiving people!]
[Keiko: Right. Or tries hurting someone to be part of the family, not for Akechi. Shido's not his father anymore.]
[Makoto: But even if his true nature becomes widely known...I wonder what results this election will bring...]
[Akechi: Hopefully, he'll confess real soon.]
[Keiko: I wish we all knew what it was, but I guess we'll soon see. We did everything right. I can feel it.]
[Ann: There really aren't many great politicians running, but anyone would be better than Shido!]
[Ryuji: Anyways, let's wait for him to have the change of heart. We can talk more after that.]
It'll happen soon enough for they even know it. As Keiko and Futaba go hang out to try out the cafe area where Akechi took her 'and taking others little at a time', Aika and Hitomi had to do something of their own research while waiting for Shido to confess to his crimes live on TV and what's that you may ask? More research on Atsuko Sakura for her doing all of this mess and her Blood of Oath book all means and I mean everything. They'll be a bit to listen in little a time 'to make the days shorter for me to explain'; while both Morgana and Keiko look it up of the original book on their ends since the other two girls got data on everything they needed. This could take a while.
Morgana: This could take a while, but oh well. It'll be worth doing. After reading, let's head to bed next, Madame Keiko.
Keiko: Got it. (Atsuko Sakura...Just who are you really to become from a book writing with a sad past? Why turn against humanity?)
We all know why she was doing all of this and working for the last False God to be her lover, so yeah. What gives?

Day # 240 - December 12/5th – Monday
All seems to be good for Yusuke to hear the news about the Phantom Thieves about them making a come back to also hear about Shido wasn't feeling well 'on his train ride to his school' to be all be very good signs so far.
Yusuke: (Everyone will soon see we've done the right thing.)
Little by little, we learn to be patient on other things like this one. The next day for Keiko to do from doing more fundraising thing again, buying things and selling them from Iwai's store...
Iwai: Looking good, Keiko. Thanks for the goodies again.
Keiko: And thank you for the dealing price you're giving me, Iwai. See you next time.
To also be seeing and hanging out with Chihaya to get some work done.
Chihaya: The Phantom Thieves are back. That's wonderful to hear, Keiko-Chan.
Keiko: It sure is, Chihaya.
From seeing Yusuke's work was going well on his art and earning some money 'sand saving this time', good for him. Then seeing Caroline and Justine at the Velvet Room for Keiko to get some new Personas to have for power in Mementos to also stop both Queen Lilith and her lover as the last False God...
Tayla: Persona # 145 – Dionysus
Dionysus is the ancient Greek god of wine, wine cups, wineskin, grapes and fertility. He inspires ritual madness, joyful worship, ecstasy, carnivals and celebration. He is sometimes included as one of the twelve Olympians. He was also known as Bacchus, the name adopted by the Romans and the frenzy he induces, bakkheia. In addition to winemaking, he is the patron deity of agriculture and the theater. Hailed as an Asiatic foreigner, he was thought to have had strong ties to the East and to Ethiopia in the South. He was also known as the Liberator, freeing one from one's normal self, by madness, ecstasy or wine. The divine mission of Dionysus was to mingle the music of the aulos and to bring an end to care and worry. Scholars have discussed Dionysus' relationship to the "cult of the souls" and his ability to preside over communication between the living and the dead.
In Greek mythology, Dionysus is made out to be a son of Zeus and the mortal Semele. He is described as being womanly or "man-womanish." The retinue of Dionysus was called the thiasus and was chiefly comprised of maenads and satyrs. Dionysus is a god of mystery religious rites. One of the most famous mystery religions was the Eleuinian Mysteries, in which Dionysus may have had a minor role. In the Thracian Mysteries, he wears the bassaris or fox-skin, symbolizing new life. His own rites, the Dionysian Mysteries, practiced by maenads ad others, were the most secret of all. Many scholars believe that Dionysus is a syncretism of a local Greek nature deity and a more powerful god from Thrace or Phrygia such as Sabazios or Zalmoxis.
Tayla: Persona # 146 – Belial
The 68th spirit in the Goetia, he is a mighty king and powerful. He was created next after Lucifer and is of his order. He appears in the form of a beautiful angel sitting in a chariot of fire and speaks with a comely voice. His office is to distribute preferments of senatorships and to cause favor of friends or foes. He bestows excellent familiars and governs 80 legions of spirits. Whoever summons him must have offerings of gifts or sacrifices or he will not give true answers to their demands, but even then with those, he will not spend more than one hour on the truth unless constrained by divine power or his seal, to be worn as a lamin by the person who summons him. - The Lesser Key of Solomon.
Tayla: Persona # 147 – Abaddon
Abaddon is a biblical term in Hebrew which means "place of destruction" and is a fiery plain in the realm of the dead, Gehenna. In the later teachings of Revelation, Abaddon had become a being that personified the abyss, becoming known as the "Angel of the Abyss." He is often depicted as a large, human-sized locust and leads a swarm of locusts and other insects that carry infectious diseases. In this respect, he is often associated with the swarms of locusts that sometimes destroy entire crop fields and in the The Greater Key of Solomon was said to be called upon by Moses to cause the great rains during the Ten Plagues of Egypt.
While in many circles he is considered to be associated with Satan, even going as far as to claim that Abaddon is another name for Satan, he is actually a righteous figure, and was charged with casting Satan down into the abyss and sealing him within.
In demonology, he is said to tempt people with sloth and discord.
Tayla: Persona # 148 – Dominion
In the Christian hierarchy of angels, Dominions are part of the second sphere and are said to watch over nations and regulate the duties of lesser angels. In Moses Maimonides' hierarchy of angels, according to Jewish lore, they are Hashmallim (the fourth rank of angels) and are mentioned briefly in the Hebrew version of the Book of Ezekiel.
Tayla: Persona # 149 – Uriel
In Abrahamic religion, Uriel was a high ranking archangel who was listed as the fourth angel that represented the four cardinal points, the others being Michael, Gabriel and Raphael. Although he is never mentioned by name in any of the widely accepted holy scriptures, he came to be known as Uriel, which means "Flame of God," for his depiction of holding a flaming sword. He is said to carry the stars in the sky, and on the final day of judgment, he will oversee the resurrection and retribution of human souls. According to the Apocrypha, Uriel was the guardian to the gates of the Garden of Eden.
Tayla: Persona # 150 – Raphael
Within the hierarchy of angels from Christian mythology, Raphael is one of the four Seraphim, the highest rank. His name means "One that heals." He is said to be the guardian of the Tree of Life, opposite the Tree of Knowledge in the Garden of Eden. Most of Raphael's exploits take place in the Apocrypha, where he has roles as imprisonment of Azazel (an angel that gets exiled from Heaven for having sex with human females) and guide of Sheol, the Hebrew underworld.
Though he is not depicted as a lover of another being, Raphael is in the Lovers Arcana due to his appearance in the Lovers Tarot Card, and his status of the patron Saint of lovers due to his involvement of uniting Sarah & Tobias in the Book of Tobit.
Tayla: Persona # 151 – Gabriel
In Abrahamic religion (which encompasses Christianity, Judaism and Islam), Gabriel is a high-ranking messenger angel. Their name means "Master who is of God" and is known to be the left hand of God and the embodiment of the holy spirit, in contrast to Michael who is the right hand of God. To Christians, Gabriel's primary task is that of a messenger who told Elizabeth that she would bear John the Baptist and Mary that she would bear Jesus, meaning they are remembered each Christmas/Advent as the messenger of the Annunciation or Immaculate Conception (it was also Gabriel who asked Mary to name her son Jesus, meaning "savior.") They are also mentioned as announcing the prophecy of seventy weeks to Daniel and is also recognized as St. Gabriel, the patron saint of communications workers. By Muslims, Gabriel is especially noted for revealing the Qur'an to Muhammad and for being the messenger that tells prophets of their obligations. In Islam, Gabriel is the highest-ranking angel, while Raphael is the second. They are also called the holy spirit in Islam.
While typically thought to be male or of a neutral gender in early texts, some schools of thought believe that the portrayal of Gabriel's feminine face in art denotes that Gabriel is in fact a female angel. This may be in contrast to Michael's male role as the right hand of God, but the subject is still largely debated in religious circles. When portrayed as a female, Gabriel often holds a lily, suggesting a gentle feminine nature. Gabriel is the Angel of January and is associated with the zodiac sign Aquarius.
Tayla: Persona # 152 – Michael
Michael is an archangel, one of the principal 50 angels in Christian lore, and of the four archangels of Islamic tradition. In Christianity, he is viewed as the field commander of the Army of God and led it in the war against Satan and the fallen angels. He is also a saint and thus carries the title "St. Michael The Archangel." He is mentioned by name in the Book of Daniel and the Book of Revelations. In the book of Daniel, Michael appears as "one of the chief princes" who in Daniel's vision comes to the angel Gabriel's aid in their contest with the angel of Persia, and is also described there as the advocate of Israel and "great prince who stands up for the children of your people." In Islam, Michael serves as one who delivered bounty and sustenance to all living things as commanded by God.
Tayla: Persona # 153 – Choronzon
Choronzon is mentioned by occultists in the 16th century, but became famous due to Aleister Crowley and his belief system, Thelema, described further in his book Liber AL vel Legis or the Book of Law. It is also called the Dweller in the Abyss or the Demon of Dispersion, and held vast amounts of knowledge. In a ritual with his follower Victor Benjamin Neuberg, Crowley claimed to have summoned Choronzon within a seal in the Sahara Desert, but could not control it.
A lot of good choices, huh?
Justine: Use their powers well, Inmate.
Caroline: We have a few more to give you later the next you come back, Inmate!
Leaving the Velvet Room until she comes back again for Caroline and Justine to keep on helping Keiko out to make many more Personas. With them also chatting from outside in Shibuya -Central Street once again.
Justine: And the now the last part to talk about, Inmate. The men you've met besides having friends...Do you love Goro Akechi a lot?
Last thing for now that Keiko has to talk about, she didn't mind telling Caroline and Justine all about it. Las thing to talk about with them on certain things only...
Keiko: The boys...Well, besides being friends with the girls and Personas like Jackie too, about the guys...Sojiro Sakura's like a father to me, Iwai's a type of boss who I want to help out in his work, Yoshi's a wise man to get his good word out to the people in Japan and the world one day, Shinya's a good kid to be amazing at video games; Morgana does his part to remember who he is, Yuuki helped us became popular through the Phan-Site to be par of the group, Ryuji's funny to be a caring guy deep down, Yusuke's odd to still have good art works to create anything he sees and images...And Akechi-Cun...He did save me a lot to fall for me first, and then for me to fall in love back with him to become more powerful to understanding each other. So yes, I'm in love with Akechi so much for me to still love the others as me friends. (Same with you two, but...I'll let them figure it out for themselves.)
And that's it...Now what was on today's to do list with Keiko? For Caroline and Justine to go to on their night out?
Caroline: All right, time to name the location-Justine, you do the honors.
Justine: Listen closely...the place we wish to evaluate for your rehabilitation is...one halfway detached from this world-it is said the time spent there is like that of a dream. Men and women of all ages swarm the land, forgetting reality in search of happiness and wonder. This sounds like a similar form of escapism as the fantasies we saw in the movie theater...A sinister trap that encircles humans...If such a place truly exists, then we must observe it in action ourselves. Does this location sounds at all familiar to you?
Thinking carefully, Keiko thinks it might be Destinyland. Of course it's a lot like Disney World in Japan. I'm just saying...
Caroline: Well? If you know where it is, then escort us there immediately!
Keiko: (...It could be Destinyland over in Maihama...)
It sounds like it alright.
Caroline: So, what'll it be?
Keiko: Ah...Do you mean Destinyland?
The first they've heard of it and first time going there.
Caroline: DESTINYland? Hmph, what an absurd name! Come on, let's get going, Inmate! Go, go!
Keiko: Hey...I thought you would call me by my real name now.
Justine: You'll always be our inmate, we praise you with grace. And Caroline, what excites you so?
Oh well, more to Destinyland for the third time for this girl to take the twins there. Again at night time to look pretty in the late Autumn, the twins sees what a real main theme park looks like.
Keiko: This is it. Please stay close to me so others don't think of the wrong idea.
Of them looking like young kids to get loss? That would look bad of the wrong idea. Ha!
Justine: Have no fear. We know what we have to do.
Seeing strange things to them was very new. From a machine animal mascot, and a design castle.
Caroline: That bear's walking on its hind legs! Is it a demon of some sort?!
Justine: Is there a king living in that castle? Shouldn't we pay him our respects first?
Ah...I think they're missing the point of the real world. Soon, something else was about to happen in the theme park.
Happy Woman: The parade's starting!
Excited Girl: Go! Go! Go!
Something was coming for Caroline and Justine didn't get it at all.
Caroline: Wh-What is that thing?! It's huge!
From other robot animals to be walking by and music to be playing too.
Justine: This gleeful music...the rhythmic, monotonous dancing...the grins plastered across every spectator's face...This overvaluation is making me grow dizzy...
Caroline: Ah-ha! This is brainwashing scheme, isn't it, Inmate?
Keiko: It's just a parade. A fun thing to pass by.
It was fun for others to cheer and clap.
Caroline: Hey, are you brainwashed too, now?
Keiko: Join in the fun, you two...If you both want to.
Justine: Quickly, Caroline-slap her back into reason. Failing that, try your baton.
Almost doing it, Keiko stops Caroline.
Keiko: Hey...! Put that thing down, Caroline! I'm not brainwashed!
Justine: Good. It appears you're of sound mind now.
Yeah, and almost getting beaten up in public is a bad idea to do.
Caroline: Way to confuse us, stupid!
Keiko: Please don't be so harsh to me...
Caroline: It's for your own good by only us. Although, it may benefit us to investigate just how they pull off such a successful mass-brainwashing. Justine, let us conduct an inspection of the premises. Lead the way, Inmate.
It's time for the tour.
Keiko: Of course, follow me. (Sometimes they scare me, even if they look like kids to not be normal at all. Still...they mean well.)
Another tour around Destinyland - from rides, shows, food, drinks, things to buy, arcades, and such to see all the sights of the entire theme park. For Caroline and Justine learn about family fun like this place.
Something was coming for Caroline and Justine didn't get it at all.
Caroline: Wh-What is that thing?! It's huge!
From other robot animals to be walking by and music to be playing too.
Justine: This gleeful music...the rhythmic, monotonous dancing...the grins plastered across every spectator's face...This overvaluation is making me grow dizzy...
Caroline: Ah-ha! This is brainwashing scheme, isn't it, Inmate?

Justine: Quickly, Caroline-slap her back into reason. Failing that, try your baton.
Almost doing it, Keiko stops Caroline.
Keiko: Hey...! Put that thing down, Caroline! I'm not brainwashed!
Justine: Good. It appears you're of sound mind now.
Yeah, and almost getting beaten up in public is a bad idea to do.
Caroline: Way to confuse us, stupid!
Keiko: Please don't be so harsh to me...
Caroline: It's for your own good by only us. Although, it may benefit us to investigate just how they pull off such a successful mass-brainwashing. Justine, let us conduct an inspection of the premises. Lead the way, Inmate.
It's time for the tour.
Keiko: Of course, follow me.
Another tour around Destinyland - from rides, shows, food, drinks, things to buy, arcades, and such to see all the sights of the entire theme park. For Caroline and Justine learn about family fun like this place.
Caroline: ...Hmph, that wasn't nearly as impressive as I expected.
Justine: You say that now, despite appearing quite captivated before...What with your outbursts like, "That bear is so cute!" and, "Let's get in line to meet the characters!" and so forth...
They think alike to still be funny on what they really like doing.
Caroline: I-I said nothing of sort! I was merely going through the motions in the guise of a brainwashed human! That's all it was!
Hey, it's fine if Caroline likes cute things and Justine can be the little know it all.
Keiko: If you say so... (But I better stay out of this one just in case.)
Soon Caroline sees something else to do next.
Caroline: Look, there's another line! Let's se where it goes!
Someone was in a hurry.
Justine: *sigh* I suppose we don't have a choice now...We had better catch up to her, Inmate.
Keiko: Yeah, good idea.
Well they come back a few minutes later to be nothing more than the line to the bathroom for nothing. Ouch.
Caroline: I can't believe we stood in line for...I don't even KNOW how long, and it only led to a bathroom!
Keiko: We did try to warn you.
But hey, they can't be blame for on things they never seen or heard of before.
Justine: I was hoping we'd get to ride in one those other massive, crazed teacups going about in circles...
Keiko: I think we did it already to be too dizzy to remember.
Caroline: What was that, Inmate?!
Keiko: What? I was just remembering something. And this is a fantastical trip.
Being blamed for nothing yet again.
Justine: Understandable, but doesn't that mean the long wait time is a critical flaw?
Caroline: Hey, Inmate. Don't you prefer your prison cell to this place? There's no line to use the bathroom there.
Keiko: Yeah, no fun to bathroom unless you have to go.
But not bad on the other parts they did all night.
Caroline: Well that was fun-I mean, that was a functional assignment, but we've had enough for today. Time to head back.
Justine: Just a moment, Caroline...I have heard it is customary to bring back some sort of token gift for one's superiors after visiting a place such as this. We should buy something for our master while we have the chance. I perused the wares on display earlier. The mouse ears or the stuffed bear...Which do you think our master would prefer?
The head gear animal ear sets.
Keiko: From the mouse ears and stuffed bear...I say get both of them.
Justine: From something to wear and something to keep...for our master... *giggle*
This sure made Justine laugh to confuse the other two.
Caroline: Uh...Justine?
Justine: It seems that even I could not avoid the brainwashing...Please keep this a secret from our master...In any case, we have confirmed the existence of a "world of dreams." As such, we formally acknowledge your assignment as complete.
Another job well done with these two for Keiko to take them to another place once again.
Keiko: I'm glad I took you two here. Third time is much more fun for me to go back. Lucky me.
Caroline: Look at the smiles on the people's faces...It's as if they've been liberated from their everyday lives.
Justine: A human's desire to dream even reaches into their time in the walking world...A rather curious phenomenon for us, as we dwell in the space between dream and reality.
Well, another music start for the parade to start for the next hour.
Caroline: Ooh, is another brainwashing parade beginning?
Justine: We have no need for that again. Let us return, Inmate.
Keiko: Okay, let's get going.
From there, Keiko takes Caroline and Justine back to the Velvet Room with the things they got from Destinyland. What a day for the waiting still continues on.
Year 20xx
Day # 241 - December 12/6th – Tuesday
A lot of people in a few different towns waited to hear about the election of Shido 'if it does happen' to the Phantom Thieves to trust in again 'for some of the people in Japan and all over the world' that all was well again for the Phan-Site was back in business as Yuuki made some few changes on the fan site. As Ann acts like a normal student in school to get through the next few weeks.
Ann: (We'll get through this soon enough. I just know we all will.)
Boy, you said it Ann. From school to be done for Keiko's friends and it to be cold out today and sort of snowing...So does Keiko and Morgana do something...?
Morgana: Come on, Madame Keiko. We'll be bored all day if we sit around all day doing nothing while waiting.
Keiko: Yeah, let's go do something to move around than just sitting around.
First they work at the fundraising store again to be one of them to do, hearing another request to do on someone from the store she was helping out at 'to also hang out with Ryuji for a bit', while helping Sojiro clean the cafe up and such, help serve some coffee, curry too, and the reading some books to pass the time after doing so much. Lots of catching up to do little at a time.
Sojiro: Long day, huh?
Keiko: It's nothing that I'm use to, it was fine today.
A lot to spend the day...Getting late out to group texting each other once again for the weeks to finish going by day by day.
[Yusuke: The election battle has reached the halfway point.]
[Makoto: The polls for each election ward have remained the same though.]
[Ann: Does this mean Shido's victory is guaranteed?]
[Akechi: Let us hope it doesn't come down to it in the end.]
[Makoto: That would be the case if it is.]
[Haru: I wonder if voting will shift if Shido has a change of heart...]
[Keiko: For someone who has committed so many crimes, then it has to be the case.]
[Ryuji: Nobody'll vote for him once they find out he's a criminal.]
[Futaba: Assuming they find out before they vote.]
[Makoto: That's the important part. We would prefer him to announce his crimes before the election...]
[Ann: But if the change of heart doesn't make it, the election will go just as expected.]
[Keiko: Everyone, we have to believe. The results aren't what matters.]
[Akechi: You're right, Princess. The results won't let us back down for this. Not even against Shido himself.]
[Futaba: Yeah, I'm sure it'll happen beforehand! You said it, Sis. You too, Akechi. Not bad for a newbie.]
[Yusuke: All we can do is change his heart.]
[Makoto: We should be able to put a stop to this if we succeed...]
As night has fallen for Keiko and Morgana to be getting some sleep, something of message on Keiko's cell phone text message from Jackie was left for Morgana to read on what it was saying 'unaware to them yet that the seven of Brightful Gems were glowing up on their own'.
Morgana: Huh...? Sounds like Jackie's recovering well for Akechi to hang on to its stone...Hey, Madame Keiko, Jackie has left us a message.
Looking at it to still go avatar mode a little at least.
Keiko: Strange...What did Jackie message me about?
Read it to say this for them to see first... Jackie – 'If any of you Phantom Thief friends are reading this right now, its from me to still be healing up but hanging in there. I've also did some research and remembered before I was hurt for a member to come back to me a little on who my human master is and still alive that had something to do with Atsuko Sakurai's children's book, "The Blood of Oath". The hints are these to remember them...From down below as you may go will lead you to a path for someone to remember, a beast has been unleashed who must be stopped to save two others, while not letting the pearl fall into the wrong hands of evil; unless someone who's pure hearted to fight back along with with the woman who will do anything for her lover. That's all I know, the rest is up to you to figure out what it all means to make more sense later. The next time you all to see me again, I explain everything else to have my memories and powers all coming back to me. You friendly Persona, Jack Frost. AKA Jackie.' Reading it, they seem to get Jackie's message to remember as well as confusing on the last part it left.
Morgana: "The last time you'll see me"...? I don't get it.
Keiko: I don't get it either, Morgana. (Wait! I'm getting another strange feeling coming from...) Morgana! Look, the gems!
From the red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, and pink of all the Brightful Gems they've collected from six False Gods and one Cognitive enemy to get them all for it forms on their own to light up, float in midair, go in a circle, start getting closer, and then it happened...For them were the first to see the the form of the Eternal Pearl. As pure as a bright star, as it shines pretty like a sun, it's powerful for it to sense some pureness from Keiko herself to hold on to. For it has finally been formed for them to witness it all happened.
Morgana: Wow...I don't believe it...This is it. The Eternal Pearl has been formed...! It's so pretty...like real Treasure...!
Acting silly for it again.
Keiko: It is. And yet, it has chosen me in seconds...But why?
Morgana: Hmm...Who knows. I guess it senses you being the a very pure hearted person and out leader, it knows to be real to have you use it for good. With this, we can stop Queen Lilith and her boyfriend in no time. Along with the two spy Shadows. Let show the others and Akechi the news tomorrow.
Keiko: Right, we have to so we all know what we'll do next.
Good idea, for this item mustn't fall into Atsuko Sakurai/Queen Lilith's hands at all, or her boyfriend being the last of the seven False Gods. Now before calling it a night...Another thing for Keiko to do with the twin wardens again while Morgana wonders around town, so what was it to go to this time?
Caroline: Justine...! Look!
Justine: Could it be, Caroline...?
The two were shock to see Keiko to be holding the Eternal Pearl at the real thing.
Caroline and Justine: It is the real Eternal Pearl! You got it!
Keiko: I did. And don't worry, we'll protect it at all coast in the right hands.
Good to know.
Caroline: You better...All right, time to name the location-Justine, you do the honors.
Justine: Please do, Inmate. For the pearl's very powerful. Now then...Listen closely, the place we his to evaluate for your rehabilitation is...the castle of your own master, Inmate.
Caroline: The individual responsible for your successful rehabilitation in your own world-this is a person of great import.
Justine: As your wardens, we would be remiss to forgo a meeting with this person. Take us to your master immediately.
They want for Keiko to take them to Cafe Leblanc.
Keiko: Sure, I can take you two there at Leblanc. (I might as well show them where I do live in.)
Caroline: Excellent. Let's move out, on the double!
Justine: What kind of person could your master be? Well, lead the way so we may find out.
Off to Leblanc then for Sojiro sees Keiko bringing Caroline and Justine for the first time. Seeing thing to be the unreal, and for him to find if she knows of them not being dangerous that he has seen so far.
Sojiro: Hey Keiko, welcome back-
Hey stops to see Keiko with two more people she knows of.
Keiko: Hi, Sojiro. I brought over some friends of mine.
Caroline: She's our client, and we're her wardens.
Justine: Please to meet you.
A weird way for greeting people there.
Sojiro: Wait, who are those kids?
Keiko: Mr. Sakura, these two are Justine and Caroline. You two, this is the person who I live with name Sojiro Sakura.
They see the place and cafe looked nice from the inside and outside of the building.
Justine: Are you the master of the place? Thank you for assisting the Inmate with her rehabilitation.
This really confused the poor old man.
Sojiro: "Inmate"?
Caroline: Yes, it is all going as planned, in no small part due to your own efforts. We must express our gratitude for that.
Seeing them to be fine, Sojiro says thank you right back.
Sojiro: Uh, sure...? Hey, Keiko...What kind of crowd are you running with nowadays, exactly?
Keiko: They're good who's been helping out throughout this entire mess. And I'm just being me, a friendly girl to anyone who helps me out.
This is Keiko Amamiya for you.
Sojiro: ...Well, it's up to you who you spend your time with-just don't get into any trouble.
Keiko: Of course I won't.
Sojiro: Well, take a seat. Have you already eaten? If not, I could bring out some curry for you.
This will be something else new for the twin to try eating of the best curry in the area.
Caroline: Curry?
Justine: We haven't a clue what that is, but we will politely accept your offer.
Sitting down for Keiko joins with Justine and Caroline, Sojiro hands them each a plate of curry to eat.
Sojiro: Here you go.
Caroline: What in the world is this? The rice is slowly being absorbed by this sludge...
Yep, this will be a brand new food to try today.
Sojiro: ... "Sludge"? Really?
Keiko: This is how they learn things, Mr. Sakura. Believe me.
Sojiro: Wait-have you really never had this before?
Showing them how tasty it was.
Keiko: It's really good...!
Justine: Well, the scent isn't bad at all...in fact, it's rather appetizing.
Caroline: What are these poisonous-looking red chunks along the edge here?
It's part of the food of the curry to add with it.
Sojiro: It's called fukujinzuke...
Tayla: In case any of you wanted to know...Fukujinzuke is a condiment in Japanese cuisine, commonly used as relish for Japanese curry. In fukujinzuke, vegetables including daikon, eggplant, lotus root and cucumber are finely chopped, then pickled in a base that is flavored with soy sauce. The end result has a crunchy texture.
Caroline: Fukujin...What is it?
It's part when some people put it in for good flavoring.
Sojiro: It's optional flavoring for your curry...They call it that because of the Seven Gods of Fortune, the Shichi Fukujin.
Like I said, that's the other details to the food part as well. But for the twins have misheard Sojiro's saying to be an old made up story.
Caroline: You chopped up a GOD to make this?!
Justine: So this is dyed with the blood of a god...
This is something for Sojiro to get use to those two twins.
Sojiro: What are these kids going on about?
Keiko: Sorry Ms. Sakura, but...It's best not to know anything else.
Yeah, it was for the best for once with Caroline and Justine.
Caroline: This man's a god killer...Now I see how he's able to rein in the Inmate.
Justine: I have high hopes for any dish prepared by a god-slayer. Let us pay our proper respects and happily eat our sludge.
They still like the curry they were eating to be normal.
Sojiro: Look, it's not sludge, alright?
Eating the curry to enjoy it and some to be a bit too spicy, too hot for them maybe.
Caroline: Hfff! It's so spicy! My mouth's on fire!
Justine: I agree...Nom...Mmm...but it seems I cannot stop myself.
It's too good to not eat at all.
Keiko: Maybe you two should let it cool off a little before eating the rest of it. So does this mean you two are fans of curry now?
Caroline: It's good...Eh, and the spice...it's not bad. I think it could stand to be a little sweeter, though.
Justine: I must say, I do feel this "curry" sludge filling both my body and spirit to burst. Waiting this every day would, no doubt, support your rehabilitation immensely.
Don't forget to cool your mouths off with water.
Caroline: Be grateful to that god-slayer for sheltering you, Inmate. If you were to cross him...he'd chop you up for his next garnish.
In other words, they like it.
Sojiro: ...I should get going. I have to get Futaba's dinner ready. If they want coffee, you know how to make it. Okay, the shop's yours for the night, Keiko.
Keiko: See you later.
With him leaving the cafe, Keiko was going to make a cup of coffee for the girls next.
Justine: "Coffee"...I believe that was served at the slave camp as well.
Caroline: All right, Inmate, serve us coffee.
Two cup of coffees coming up for Keiko to make for the twins next.
Keiko: I hope you two will like it. It'll be hot, but it's really good.
This was news to them as they had trouble seeing the coffee was drinkable.
Caroline: Why is everything on the god slayer's menu so murky?
Justine: It's not only the looks...But also the smell of this too. If it is good and hot, how is this enjoyable to drink?
Caroline: Whatever. And now, for a test sip...
Keiko: A little sip, Caroline. Go ahead.
For Caroline to drink up first, she felt weird from the taste of coffee.
Caroline: Gah?! It's BITTER! Is this poison?!
Keiko: That's just how it tastes. You'll get use to it. Mr. Sakura makes some good coffee to own this cafe, lots of work.
Caroline: Yeah? But what's in it?
Justine: What else can you add in it.
Keiko: Cream or sugar.
Good thing they've also learn on other food and drink things in the world.
Justine: Ah yes, I have heard of them both. Supposedly, they are magical white-colored additives that can enhance the taste of this inky abomination...I shall demand those additives.
Keiko: Coming right up.
And with these things to add to the coffee to make it better for the twins to drink out of this time.
Justine: Oh? This powder dissolves immediately, no matter how much I add...Hmmm...Almost...A little more...That perfect balance of black and white is almost there...Oh, there's no more left...
Handing it over for them to have to try this time.
Keiko: Here you two go. Justine, it's your turn to try out yours this way.
Justine: I don't believe that I quite reached a perfect harmony of black and white, but there is nothing that can be done now. Now, for the rest sip...
Caroline: Justine, be careful.
And so, Justine tastes her coffee to tell about her option of it.
Justine: Ah, it's so sweet...There is an intriguing, crunchy texture to it. However, it does have its own unique appeal.
Caroline: Not only did we get to meet the Inmate's master in this realm, but we also got to try some exotic food. And as for yourself, this assignment is now complete.
Keiko: I'm glad you two like the curry and coffee. Also for Mr. Sakura, you'll get use to his weird thing.
They understood to like to hang out with Keiko more and more like this.
Caroline: Now that I'm thinking about it, the Inmate's shown us quite a number of different places, huh?
Justine: Indeed-we've been able to see some unexpected sides to humans. This has been a very fulfilling experience for us.
Keiko: You're welcome. I'm happy to hear it.
Good to get some nice comment for them to really care for Keiko deep down.
Justine: And don't forget, this is a task besides having fun our way. So don't forget that. Although, Caroline does occasionally forget her station in her excitement.
Caroline: O-Oh yeah?! I could say the same for you! I KNOW you asked our master if we could get a jellyfish tank for our room! Don't try to dent it!
What does that even mean there? This confused Justine on what Caroline just said.
Justine: Uh...It appears we're out of time. We must be heading back now.
Caroline: HEY! Don't act like you can just drop the subject that easily! You're not getting our of this one!
Justine: ...We are wardens, and this is out prisoner. Nothing more, nothing less. However, there is denting the fact that the Inmate's results have exceeded our expectations. For that alone, we would certainly be remiss to not express our appreciation.
Caroline: Yeah! That's high praise coming from us! Show your own appreciation for us, Inmate!
Seems fair to say and enjoy another fun day to do.
Caroline: But this isn't the end of your special assignments! You better not give up on 'em now-got it?! Let's finish the god slayer's meal before we leave-what were they called again? Curby and coughing?
Justine: I believe you mean curdy and comfy.
Correction...
Keiko: Curry and coffee.
Caroline: Oh, whatever! What she said! It's sludge on a plate and sludge in a cup! Now let's get to it!
Keiko: Okay.
For the leftover curry and coffee to finish drinking and eating, Keiko takes the twins back to the door of the Velvet Room.
Justine and Caroline: And remember to protect the pearl with your life, Inmate. You an face any battle in your way for good.
For them to say those thing, Keiko will remember this well with both Caroline and Justine returning back to the Velvet Room. Once they've returned and Igor doing the same old thing...Jose appears to see the injury someone they've saved and healed so far. So what did Jose want with them this time? Well, they wanted him to meet with only with those two this time.
Jose: You two girls wish to see me again? How's the injury person doing?
Seeing the hands and feet of the this mysterious person in the jar, this was a task for the twins to remember a little something to alert Jose about only.
Justine: This is important to give you with this task and this person.
Caroline: You better listen to us now for your own good and not to say a word.
Jose: Than please tell me everything, I want to help out. For Mommy's sake and her friends.
And for that...we all might have to wait to hear about it way later on.
Year 20xx
Day # 242 - December 12/7th – Wednesday
Waiting for a few more days for Shido's heart has changed yet...Keiko calls up Akechi to have his girlfriend to see the pearl along with Morgana, Ryuji, Ann, Yusuke, Makoto, Futaba, and Haru to also see from the once seven gems to make a powerful item. From Kiwa sending Daisuke, Tohru, Hitomi, and Aika the picture of it.
Kiwa: Check it out, they got it. It's the Eternal Pearl.
The other four were amazed to be seeing this.
Daisuke: Well I'll be damned.
Tohru: And Atsuko wants this for her so call lover...? Grrr...! I'll never forgive her, she murder my Okumura.
Trying to not stress out a lot for her child's sake to stay strong.
Daisuke: Easy there, missy.
Tohru: Sorry. I know...
Aika: We have to be strong. With Keiko's help, we can use it to stop Lilith...Atsuko...I mean Junko...Ah! I don't know her real name anymore!
Hitomi: But Iwamura, she fooled us all. But we can still fight back with it, so let's help them out the way they did for all of us up to this point.
Aika: Right, we can do this.
And the group will as the other backup of the Phantom Thieves, from Wakaba to form to leave the old name behind into something brand new.
Kiwa: Anyways, we'll keep informed along with my girlfriend too.
Good idea to do there. And now knowing what to do with it in their fight later on to keep an eye on it won't be so easy to do next.
Akechi: So this is...
Ann: The Eternal Pearl! It's so beautiful!
A lot to be amazed to be seeing this in real life as a real pearl with pure power, and not in the hands of evil or it'll be use for bad things as a deadly weapon.
Haru: And this will help us stop the last two enemies?
Futaba: This reminds me of the powerful Silver Crystal from that popular Anime show, the Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon...Oh, and Kiwa was informed for the others to hear about this and a quick pic I send. Same with Kasumi too.
Well, for Futaba to be enjoying the Eternal Pearl to remind her of a Anime series she loves watching a lot 'and I do too'.
Ryuji: Nice one. And yes, we get it already. It's an Anime thing with ya, Futaba. So what...?
Yusuke: So, we have the weapon and item to keep an eye on. But what do we do with it until then...?
Morgana: Madame Keiko seems to be the wielder of it. I don't know why...But still, we'll leave the whole holding the pearl to her.
They seem to agree with that idea for Keiko to do her best on it, with it being held in a necklace type of look.
Makoto: Here we go...Something to keep the pearl on you, Keiko-Chan, at all times.
It looks nice around Keiko's neck.
Keiko: This should work out nicely. Thanks, Makoto.
Akechi: I agree. If anyone's going to stop Cthulhu, Sith, and Junko...Or rather Atsuko Sakurai and make sure Shido confesses to his crimes and Jackie coming back to help it, the Phantom Thieves might have their last task other than helping out others in Mementos...Well, for this job. Who knows what will happen in the future.
In other words...Akechi wants to work with the Phantom Thief and as an ace detective to aid his friends and Keiko on what's to come in the future.
Keiko: I'm good with it if you are, Akechi-Cun.
Akechi: Thank you, Princess. Yes, this is where I belong..As for the police force...Sorry, I have a lot to think about.
For them to hug and something normal on Akechi's mind, more on that later on. Right now, the pearl was more important to show, tell, and talk about the two or three 'or maybe a few more of Mementos requests to take care of later on to also find more of Morgana's memories'.
Morgana: It'll have to do. Until then, we'll wait to go back to Mementos...Let's call this meeting a close for now.
Keiko: OK. We'll do so to keep the pearl safe. Until then, let's do what we can to wait to see Shido's change of heart, and then we'll work on finding Queen Lilith, the last False God to defeat, and Morgana' memories. Got it?
They all placing their hands to form a group to make it all happen.
Akechi: And once I fully recover, I'll join back. But I can still help on the side lines.
Morgana: Then this meeting's over until the next time we have it. Madame Keiko, we're counting on you with the pearl to protect.
Keiko: Right. (The Eternal Pearl, I'll do what I have to for this item to be safe from Queen Lilith's hands and to use it for good, never for evil or it'll become darkness to rule the world. Not just ours, but for Mementos and the Metaverse as well. For us the Phantom Thieves to all come together with a task which must be done.)
All was good and they go home for Keiko and Akechi to spend a few more hours together, and then helping out Sojiro before calling it another night.
Sojiro: Nice necklace...I know, it's suppose to be a powerful item in the other world, right? Well, just keep the pearl in your safe hands, Keiko, your teammates are all counting on you.
Morgana: You can count on Madame Keiko to do her part, chief!
Keiko: What he said. Oh, Morgana...
A lot of work to be done, but it'll happen from one thing at a time. From Jose to do something for the twins with the injured person on his own; while Kasumi trains to still support the team, and for Kiwa, Aika, Hitomi, Daisuke, and Tohru waited as well to hear Shido's confession. While also learning about Atsuko's full background on why she did all of this from her horrible past besides the book giving out some details, so far that is. For it to be cold outside again...to then sleeping on it for Keiko keeps the Eternal Pearl near her bedside at all time 'or on a table'. Keiko and Morgana to get some sleep, the pearl glows up well for it points out a doll of a Jackie Frost and the gem to be heal up in for Akechi to see a little while sleeping back at the clinic. Hmm...Why is that? So weird.
Akechi: Huh? (What is this strange feeling I'm getting?)
Hopefully to be something good, nothing bad to be happening so far. Let just hope so and another victory is at hand.
