WHO: Minako Arisato and YOU!
WHERE: All over Recollé
WHEN: All of June
WHAT: Performing tasks for Zee, and anything else she's going to do for the rest of the month
WARNINGS: None for now. Feel free to PM this journal or message me at raynestorm if you want to work out something for a prompt!

FOR THE GOOD OF THE CITY
Anywhere in Recollé; any time of the month

[Minako's list of available prompts is here! I'm open to doubling up, but no more than that, please. If you're looking for an excuse to bump into her randomly instead of doing something preplanned, the Confectionary prompt would be best, since she works there!]

A PUPPY PHONE
Anywhere in Recollé; any time of the month
"Do something nice for your neighbor" for Viea Village, or "pamper someone" for Enprise

Hmm...how am I supposed to do this without ruining your Evoker?

[It's a question asked to the air. You might find Minako walking her silver Shiba Inu on the streets, looking at some Bluetooth devices on her phone's browser-- or maybe she's in the electronics store, browsing the shelves. Either way, Koromaru is patiently walking beside her, making sure his Leader doesn't trip or bang her head on something as she muses to herself.]

Maybe I should just experiment. If I break your collar beyond repair, thanks to Retrospec it'll come back brand new...probably.

[Koromaru gives an agreeing bark.]

Okay, let's do that then. [And noticing someone near her, she waves them down.] Hey there! Question for you! What brand would you recommend for a Bluetooth device?

[Or maybe you see a text message from her.]

if I wanted to give my puppy a phone in his collar, how would I go about doing that?

Summons...?

[Like Sakura's cards, and his own sword? Curious, he presses a hand against the spike he was holding onto, if getting a better feel of the creature would prove to be better proof of it's existence than, say, actually riding on top of it. It felt real enough to him, although he still couldn't figure out why the energy from this beast felt so familiar. This was definitely the first time he's ever seen it...

The dull thud of the landing snaps him out of his thoughts again, the impact reverberating in his limbs. Minako's question gets him to glance up, her wry smile met with a duck of the head as he shifts his eyes away from her. ]

... I'm fine.

[It's more or less a mumble, the embarrassment clear in his features. It's not that he didn't appreciate the save, or was ungrateful for it, but he should be better at this by now. He honestly should have been more attentive, less reactive to these things... but instead he messed up and made Minako worry over him. Clearly he had to start working harder at keeping a cooler head.

Sliding off of the dragon and onto solid ground (while absentmindedly rubbing the spot where his spikes poked his stomach), he takes a final look at Seth before turning his sight back to Minako. The abashed aexpression had morphed into something more questioning, trying to connect the dots.]

If you summoned him... does that make you a mage too?

[I MEAN, if he and Sakura had magic and could do that much, then...]

[complementing]

Not exactly?

[is her distracted answer as she approaches him. Even if he says he's fine, she wants to confirm it for herself, and gives him a once-over anyways. Thankfully he just looks a little dusty and shaken up, with no overt scrapes or bumps from the fall, and seeing it for herself soothes her anxiety. With a little nod of satisfaction, she turns to give some attention to Seth, hugging the dragon's muzzle in thanks.

Seth, being the tsundere dragon he is, snorts and looks cross for all of five seconds before he closes his eyes to receive the affection.]

Technically none of the magic I cast comes from me. It comes from my summons. So I'm more of a...conduit, I guess. [She laughs faintly.] But compared to a normal human, I'm probably a little bit more "magical".

[Why is everyone associated with moon magic huge tsunderes-- which Xiaolang doesn't seem to be dispelling the notion of, either, with how he flushes and hunches his shoulders like grumpy turtle as Minako looks him over. He was fine, honest...! There's a small sigh on his end as she seems satisfied with what she sees, relaxing some now that he's not under her observation, although he does try, in vain, to neaten up his clothing some. Not that it mattered when it came to fighting monsters right now, but...

A conduit, though... he tilts his head, his own sword and Sakura's staff coming to mind. Was Minako's abilities similar to theirs, then?]

... I see. So it just... goes through you, instead of some other artifact? Sakura can summon things too, with special cards and a staff, but...

[His hand begins to reach tentatively towards Seth, but he reconsiders, letting it drop to his side. Touching other people's dragons was probably in bad form??]

They're nothing quite as big as this. At least, not that I've seen just yet.

[complementing]

[Minako and Seth recognize his intentions, and Seth dips his head down accordingly, staring Xiaolang straight on as if to say "if you're going to do it, don't hesitate". Very much like what another Moon associated tsundere Minako knows from her past would say...]

Weeell. I do use something to summon. I just don't like showing other people. [She flashes him a small smile.] Sakura-chan's summons are small and cute, right? That suits her.

[She pats Seth's side, and he snorts in answer.]

This guy is one of my biggest Personas, but I have smaller ones too. They're kind of all over the place, but I think that's because they're reflections of different parts of my soul, not a reflection of the whole.
