I have never seen her eat that but now I have to. Did you get to see that??
And it's not just 'a girl' it's Mitsuru so probably rich shit. She likes sweet things though. And maybe like some good... Clothes? Maybe a suit if she's gonna take over the casino but I ain't gonna ask her measurements.
Oh wait I went gift shopping with her once and she was suggesting planners and nice pens and stuff
Yeah I took her to Wild Duck! I wonder if Minato ever brought her...? I won't spoil it if not hehe 😊
[Also "what do girls want for their birthdays"... surely this must be-]
This is Sanada-senpai, right? It's Kotone. Hi! 😀✨ I bet she's had rich stuff all the time, so maybe something different could be fun for her to experience. 🤔
howd you manage that one... I still can't even get her to swear at me
Aki swords aren't made of leather you can just take them to one of the smiths around here
Yeah we need jobs so we can stop crashing on this guy's couch and the place is too shitty for her to wanna work there so I suggested she buy them out and run the business
She asked! I mean first we went to Hagakure, that was pretty funny too. Does she even know any swear words...?
Anyway yeah she messaged me about the casino too! Mostly because she wanted me to give her money for it 💦 I'm gonna have to listen to her talk business at me.......
I can go shopping with you if you need a girl's eye, Sanada-senpai! ✨
Wait wait wait do you think we should do a surprise party for her?? 😮 That could be fun!! 🤭
(There is so much to unpack in all of this but okay he's just going with it because undoubtedly he'll get the rest of the casino scoop from Mitsuru later.)
Shinji. There are sword maintenance kits you can buy for people. You can't just visit a blacksmith in the middle of battle. Though if there is a blacksmith here they probably sell them, we should look.
I will let you know, Shiomi. I still think a sword kit is a good idea.
We could make all kinds of food you eat with your hands!!
[Well if a sword kit is what Akihiko wants, it makes sense, she guesses! Though repairing and maintaining equipment? Sounds fake. Go grind in Tartarus until you find something better, or stop by your local cop to see what cool new stuff he's got. Fuse a Persona into a weapon?]
I'd like to see you try to use a sword Shinji hehe 🤭 You too, Sanada-senpai!
[Still, it's not lost on her that Shinji added her and not-]
Minato would want to be part of it, right? Aigis definitely, too. Do we wanna just keep it to SEES, or should we invite a lot of people? 🤔 It'd be nice if we could invite Ryoji-kun at least.
She's friends with some people here too. Gets along pretty well with the guy we been staying with, Vash. Probably some of the persona users from Inaba and Tokyo? If Akira comes he can keep Akechi on a leash. And you can bring Scott.
I think it would be nice to include him. 😊 I'm sure he wants a place to belong.
Inviting everybody isn't a bad idea! We'll be there in case anything gets out of hand. We can use the club building, maybe...? Since I can invite Kirijo-senpai there without her suspecting anything, and there's lots of space. It'll be easy to prepare and store food there, too.
I'll ask Scott for his recommendations, too. He's like, the most normal guy I know, and I think the normaler the better for Kirijo-senpai hehe ✨
[ The boiled everything else smell was bad enough, adding eggs into the mix... ]
Shinjiro has cooked for us both on a number of occasions. Although I must confess that I've been a little more reliant on convenience food than I would normally be.
Versatile and yet I’ve only ever seen you boil them.
Before I took over the casino our primary method of income was through monster hunting. The locals often advertise bounties for certain creatures they’re having difficulties with. We kept in practice that way.
They’re a little harder to come by now that the city has expanded but it’s not impossible.
I do enjoy them in Salade Nicoise. Perhaps that is something I could learn to make.
[ Mitsuru stop it with the French stuff. ]
About our Personas? Many do, yes. I thought it best to keep it to myself at first, given how it is back home. However, there are many here with unusual abilities including other Persona users. That combined with fact that this place has often thrown circumstances upon us where we need to fight means that it hasn't felt necessary any longer.
Not that I make a regular habit of summoning her in the middle of the street or anything of that ilk. It's still very jarring to some.

GROUP CHAT WITH KOTONE
I sent this to both of you by the way
[Is he gonna specify who 'both of you' is? Absolutely not.]
no subject
[Kotone is not even remotely concerned who the other person is in this chat. It's not Mitsuru, at least!]
no subject
I haven't seen that, perhaps it can be arranged?
This came around much sooner than I anticipated. What do girls want for their birthdays? ? ?

Hello again.
And I would suppose it's all down to what is available here and you would both have a better idea. Do they sell sword maintenance kits?
Wait.
Casino?

A party could work. A party with cheeseburgers?
no subject
I don't think she'd understand a surprise party but that makes it better. Let's go for it.
Who else should we get in on this?

Everyone should be invited perhaps. But. Mochizuki as well?
We need to make sure there are dog friendly foods.
no subject
Oh that guy's back?
She's friends with some people here too. Gets along pretty well with the guy we been staying with, Vash. Probably some of the persona users from Inaba and Tokyo? If Akira comes he can keep Akechi on a leash. And you can bring Scott.
I can manage Koromarus food.

If you need help getting her there, then let me know. I have the excuse of needing to be shown places being new.
So. Space. People. Burgers. What else are we missing? Is it too much to ask if they sell decorations here?
no subject
[is he? Who knows but he sure gives off the 'normal dude who knows normal things' vibe.]
Ok we can handle food and baking, Aki gets her there, we can ask around to decorate the place the day before
I think that's a pretty good start? We can throw together a normal-ass party no problem.

So you left out the eggs this time around?
[ Thank god. The smell would've been even worse. ]
I will pass, thank you.
no subject
Only this time, as an experiment.
Have you been eating well since you got here?
no subject
[ The boiled everything else smell was bad enough, adding eggs into the mix... ]

(Request denied.)
A good thing about this place, but overall not for the long run.
Speaking of the long run, is there a place to train with our persona?
no subject

Monster hunting? Good idea, I'll keep my eyes open, there's no excuse for falling out of practise here with how things have been.
Do people know?
no subject
[ Mitsuru stop it with the French stuff. ]
About our Personas?
Many do, yes. I thought it best to keep it to myself at first, given how it is back home.

Do you know Shinjiro's birthday?

I do. Why do you need to know it?

(Akihiko is happy to share it; Shinji deserves good things on his birthday all things considered.)
