welcome mingle
( AND SO IT BEGINS. )
There's nothing but the clatter of train tracks, and the odd feeling of almost floating.
When you wake, it's hard to tell exactly what it is that you're missing - only that you are. There are pieces that aren't quite right, even if you're not sure where those pieces would normally be. Pieces of what, exactly....? Well, if you had to put a word to it, it would be - yourself, probably.
The place you've found yourself in is strange, certainly. It's probably worth exploring a bit. Though it just as easily seems that the only form of welcome or explanation that you have, comes from nothing more than a slab of marble.
Well - that, and all the people who seem to have woken up alongside you, lost and also probably Doing Their Best™.
There's no need to fret that much though. It's hard to say exactly where you're going next, even though some places might feel a little bit more like a clue, but what you do know is one unshakeable thing:
There's still much more ahead of you.

No, that's okay.
[Minato doesn't think that feels right--not leaving it all on Haku's shoulders, as if he's throwing him under the bus.
Nahhh.]
You only took it for me, so... it's my responsibility.
[Anyway.]
I'm sure it'll be fine either way.
no subject
[If he's worried, he sure doesn't show it at all. Carefully, he places the box of pocky in the basket of charms, and then he removes one to offer it out to Minato.]
They're empty. There's no magic inside of them yet.
no subject
... Thanks.
Is that why you grabbed those? For magical purposes? [After Personas and this place, there may as well be regular old-fashioned magic.]
no subject
[A pause.]
Or simple curses.
no subject
I see...
At least that means there really are some useful things in that store... I gave up after the aisle of rubber chickens.
no subject
[Magic. But his brows furrow.]
...Rubber chickens?
no subject
[Please imagine this with the most deadpan expression and driest of tones:]
--Hrrrrrnksqueeeeeak.
no subject
makes a somewhat bewilderedly exasperated face.]
Chickens do not sound like that.
no subject
You're right. They don't.
Only rubber chickens do.
[Is this helping, Haku]
no subject
[Does he think they're real chickens? Does he think they are horrendously evil omens of doom? Who knows.]
Take only the things you need.
no subject
[And also, just not a great situation. Taking things still doesn't sit too well with him.]
... Oh. I think I've been rude. I'm Minato. Arisato Minato. It's nice to meet you.
no subject
Haku. [He nods his head in a kind of bow.] You woke here, too?
no subject
That's right. Just a little bit ago. I've been wandering around trying to get my bearings... I think that's the case for most people I've met.
no subject
[His lips thin.]
Though it sounds as if we won't be staying long.
no subject
[He shrugs a little.]
I guess if nothing else, it's reassuring that we're not dealing with this alone.
no subject
[He seems like kind of a too serious boy!]
no subject
[He is a very serious boy, but Minato's cool with that sort. He is also very serious.]
I think... with a group of people this varied, we're bound to be prepared for just about anything that comes our way. Maybe that is why we're all together here.
no subject
[When doing maybe slightly questionable things for a witch because you're her slave, BUT NEVERMIND THAT.]
If everyone is able to work together accordingly, things will run smoothly.
[He's also a part of a bathhouse staff, so, like, he gets the cooperation aspect, too.]
no subject
... I guess less logically, I just think it might be lonely by myself, so...
I'm relieved that there are others like you here, even if I'm sorry you were pulled into this too.
no subject
I trust even doing this alone, you would be able to do it.
[It... sounds like a compliment? Like he believes in Minato, though the delivery is a bit much considering. It's fine.]
no subject
... Hm.]
I'd rather not, if I didn't have to. Though if it meant everyone else got to go home, then... [OH NO, self-sacrificial nature is rearing its ugly head!!
He clears his throat.]
Regardless, we're all here now, so we have to make the best of it.
no subject
Just work together with everyone else. There's a higher likelihood of us returning home that way.
