It's time for another FAMILY MEETING!!

[carpevinum]

[There's a sign posted on 3-C on the 27th the future is now indicating that it's that time of month! That's right, it's time for the family meeting!

Lucifer is in charge this time and he is holding a whip, so please behave yourselves or you might get a warning crack near your head. Or don't behave yourselves. He's not your dad. He will, however, try his hardest to keep you all on track.

As Lucifer is also one of the Team Moms Dads, he's also made everybody lunch as he is wont to do. The rather fancy-looking food is set up on a couple of desks at the front of the classroom to peruse at your leisure. There are cookies and muffins as well, but please try to eat a real lunch instead of subsisting off of sweets entirely.

On the whiteboard, Lucifer has written the following topics & talking points that he'd like to discuss with everybody, and has requested that you all raise your hands so that this can be done in an orderly fashion... Good luck, Luci.

• Who is missing? Who is confirmed deceased?
• The gladiatorial battle — is it possible that those who died previously may come back to inflict further harm? Any guesses?
• What the Hell was going on last weekend?
• The void in the auditorium is infinite
• Results of last month's investigations that we agreed on doing
• The imps plaguing the school have been removed (thank you to Clamor for his assistance)
• Have we discovered anything new?

Last but not least, the final bullet is one hundred percent something that Lucifer clearly wants to do, and it reads simply:

• Instating a chore chart

So that's... fun.]

Let's try to keep this more orderly than the last one, shall we?

[And yes, the cardboard baby jail is set up in the back of the classroom! Naughty children go to cardboard baby jail. Naughtier children get a whip cracked at them. Have fun, everyone!]



[[OOC: The usual rules of the family meeting posts apply, which means threadjacking/general mingling is allowed and encouraged! Please remember to only share information your character discovered ICly to avoid metagaming. Also no Lucifer will not actually cause physical harm to anyone's characters with the whip unless player permission is granted, I'm not as psychotic as he is, don't worry about it.]]

( ...Rika doesn't look very well, and she notices people are approaching from the Amami side, so Elizabeth will as well -

she has a thick, leather-bound book with her today: the Compendium she'd been looking for the other month. Slowly setting it down in front of her if she's at a desk, otherwise she will just hold it out to her— )

Hello, Rika. Which of these do you like the most?

( it's a fully-filled out Compendium so have fun )

[contrarily]

( well, it better be at a desk, because she's got a sprained wrist and can't hold a book this big —

still, she'll glance over the pages, turning them with a bit of a confused expression. )

What... are those? ( and no, she's not talking about liz's shoes, )

[elevelvetor]

They are Personas - manifestations of the human heart and its feelings. Often times they take the form of mythical creatures, gods, demons, and so on... Things that humans have put their very essence and beliefs into.

( she will ... pull up a chair to sit in front of her, she is on "if anyone wants to look at the pictures i will show and explain them" duty as per komaeda's request )

I spoke briefly about them during our "gossip session". I recently came across my Compendium and thought you might like to peruse them at your leisure.

[contrarily]

Oh...

( she turns a few pages curiously, peeking at the creatures. they all look pretty whimsical, kind of like the monsters from back home but also not really, and the first one that catches her eye is... )

This one's cute. ( yes, it's jack frost. hee hoo!! )

[elevelvetor]

An excellent choice. Jack Frost is a mischievous, fun-loving Persona of the Magician Arcana. I think you two would get along quite well... Regrettably, I'm unable to summon him to my side at this time.

( she hopes she can get him back sometime...... call her, jack... )

The one I can summon for now is the God of Death, Thanatos. ( she leans over and carefully flips through the pages until she finds him. ) I would show you, but I'm afraid his appearance - as you can see - is rather frightening, and I wouldn't want to startle anyone at the moment.

[contrarily]

Ooh, you can summon them? That's cool. ( ... she misses mannen...........

would mannen count as a persona? listen, this is a legitimate question i must ask ori eventually. )

You know, being able to summon a god of death sounds like, way better. ( but tbf, if she had to pick, she'd still go for jack... just cause he's cute... ) They have personalities, right? So, what's he like?

( she looks at the picture and imagines... a wise old man, maybe... )

[elevelvetor]

( time to shatter that, )

A ruthless, powerful Persona. He tears into opponents without a second thought, striking until they've been completely and totally annihilated... though in mythology, he's commonly portrayed as a rather gentle soul. In my experience, he's a very loyal and obedient Persona — while he still has that ruthless edge to him, he's also capable of great kindness. ( ...a small smile. ) The Personas one summons reflects one's being... All of the Persona in that Compendium you have right now belong to my former guest.

( Minato... She misses him. He was a good opponent; he was a wonderful guest. )

Thanatos has been rather happy to be my partner in my travels though, as far as I can tell with him. He isn't a very talkative Persona, you see. ( he's more of a..... growly persona. )

[contrarily]

Grandpa...

( listen, all she knows of men is that they're ruthless, so it doesn't make that big of a difference. still, he looks old and wise, and therefore she brands him as a grandfather, there you go. )

The guy you're trying to save, right? ( elizabeth mentioned him before, so... she glances over at the compendium, and then back up to liz. ) There's a lot. He could summon all of this?
