( OPEN ) EVERYTHING BLACK

[maskreant]

WHO: Akira Kurusu, local nasty crime boy, and YOU!
WHERE: Everywhere in Recolle
WHEN: All of June
WHAT: breaking blocks by moonlight, egging Minato's house by daylight. A catchall for all of Akira's doings and some open prompts for anyone else who wants to join in! Here's a link of the tasks I'm interested in (don't mind doubling up either), but Akira is game to do whatever. Contact me on discord (hei#2323) or aftertaste if you want to discuss some more.
WARNINGS: Akira's mere existence

chata: upsetti spaghetti

[ For the sake of this prompt working, we're going to pretend either Junes or Freshens has a small food court area since a handful of big grocery stores do. Akira is merely enjoying his meal at one of the tables, checking through his phone at the tasks at hand. Overall, nondescript. Unassuming. Harmless. Look at him? He looks like a nerd?

Shifting his glasses up the bridge of his nose, a bright glint shines across the lenses... As if he has an idea. If you even a blink, you'll find a plate of spaghetti flying straight at your face. This is the first move—it's a call for war. ]

tribunal terrace:

[ !! Willing to play off any mystery created by others or create random ones. Just mention it in your comment if you want an RNG mystery.

Guess what mystery it is today? Akira is investigating this abandoned place of worship. While all the establishments in this section of Tribunal Terrace is pristine and taken care of well, they've left this relic somewhere in the corner. It's hard to discern what background this building has and records say it was used for a number of religions, hence the odd array of decor inside. There are warning signs in the front (KEEP OUT), some mention that it'll be restored or torn down, but it waits there...

With some of the sky painted, it's actually dark, blanketing the are in pitch black. Even when Akira raises his flashlight, what they find are outlines of the worn down building. ]

I heard that people died here, some possibly related cult activity. [ He scrolls through his phone, picking up the rumor and mystery here. ] This forum says that sometimes you can hear cries here at night, something between man and beast.

[ Yes. They're going to unveil this mystery and figure what the hell this is or die. Whichever comes first. ]

wildcard

[ Hit me with anything!! Even gen things. It's important to note that Akira is shaken by the disappearances of NPCs, but he's doing his best to keep it together and be reliable. On some days he'll naturally withdraw and keep to himself. ]

I only thought you were a demon summoner.

[ Which is still cool! Don't get him wrong, but he's still amazed by the summon of a saint. His eyes brighten up more with curiosity when Nanashi says "you don't wanna see what's out there."

Who do you take him for?? ]

I'd want to see, but I wouldn't want to push you if you don't have control over it.

[ Of course he's more concerned about Nanashi's well-being. ]

[reaquila]

That's what I thought at first too. My summoning ability isn't limited to just demons though.

[ They're about to find out the extent of his summoning. Someone help them. Nanashi shakes his head once and looks at Akira. ]

So... we can go as long as you're careful. Bring Yoshitsune just in case? He'll protect you.

[maskreant]

My Persona are always with me.

[ Plus, he can heal. Just to be... careful, he does switch to having Yoshitsune as his main one. This will protect him from physical attacks, but not other spells. Giving Nanashi a thumbs up, he nods with confidence. ]

I'm ready.

[reaquila]

[ He nods once when Akira says that he's ready to see...whatever's waiting for them out there. Nanashi turns behind the building and spots a monster. It's got a pretty distinct look so it's hard to miss. The beast has a head of a crocodile and their legs appear to be part lion. ]

Oh my god, I didn't summon you here. What the actual fuck?

[The demon is lowkey growling at Akira. It seems more interested in Akira than Nanashi.... rip.]

[maskreant]

Hello.

[ Akira isn't concerned at all. In response to the growling, Akira summons Satanael instead of Yoshitsune. The demon lord rises from the blue flames, tall and magnanimous with his wings spread outwards, making him look larger than than he is. ]

Are you Nanashi's friend?

[reaquila]

[Akira why are you not scared of a real demon in the flesh...Nanashi is concerned for your sake. The monster grumbles in response and that's about all Akira will hear. Nanashi will translate the demon gibberish. ]

She said that she's a friend and that you're a strange human.

[Rude. But she can sense Sataneal and how Akira's not exactly ordinary.]

Now she's asking what you think of demons.

[Welp, this might end poorly.]

[maskreant]

[ Wow. He looks very impressed by the fact Nanashi can translate that gibberish. Perking up, he thinks maybe this is a test? Well... It’s good to be honest. So here we go. ]

Demons are terrifying, powerful, and cool beings.

[ THAT WAS EASY? I mean, Satanael is literally the devil. ]

[reaquila]

[ OKAY, the demon seems satisfied with that answer. It's not over yet though. ]

"You aren't an arrogant human. I'll test your luck! Dig a hole, quickly!! "

Is what she said afterwards.

[They're literally going along with the demons whims...if they don't something bad might happen. Nanashi was afraid of this.]

Hey, are you really gonna dig a hole?
