open || greek fire from the sea of her soul
WHO: Minako and YOU!
WHERE: Peach Beach late at night, Birch Hills apartment complex in Apprassage
WHEN: All month, excluding certain event days
WHAT: Feeling like she's going down a path of no return, Minako tries to summon the two beings that have recently settled into the depths of her soul...and on a more lighthearted note, she also gets involved in cosplay.
WARNINGS: Hints of Persona 3 related suicide and death. For anyone tapping into the Persona threads, I will be writing Seth in prompt 2 by default, but Card is also available to write Thanatos!Ryoji if you want your character to interact with him instead, most likely as an accidental summon on Minako's part. Let us know if you'd be okay with threadjacking or even a complete three-person thread if you want to go that route. Oh, and if you'd like an Evoker thread and a Persona thread all in one, please mention that in the header too!
I. I CHOOSETH THIS FATE OF MY OWN FREE WILL
Evoker use; Peach Beach late at night
[Okay, Peach Beach at night should have less people around than Hollingberry Fields at night, right? Right. Or so Minako tells herself, staring out into the ocean with her Evoker in her hand. The scenery is all wrong, but there's definitely no way she's pulling the stunt she's about to pull anywhere in public. Nobody needs to freak out over her looking like she's about to shoot herself in the head.
Because that's exactly what it looks like, the Evoker cradled in her palms and then lifted to her temple with an audible click of its mechanisms in her right hand. Her left is clutching at her wildly beating heart, and her finger is on the trigger. Her visions tell her that this won't end in death, logic tells her it can't because the gun doesn't fire bullets. But she's almost hyperventilating anyways, so so so afraid that she's making a mistake.
But she has to know.
Do you catch her before she pulls the trigger? Or are you drawn to the area by her cry?]
PERSONA!
II. YOU'RE GONNA HEAR ME...
Persona regains; Peach Beach late at night
See note about Thanatos!Ryoji under Warnings
[Or maybe it's none of the above, and you encounter her mid-summon. Her head violently jerks to the side, the sound of glass shattering, and where one would presume a bullet would escape, there's instead what looks to be glowing blue fragments, suspended in the air. The wind picks up around her in a self-contained tornado, and a figure bursts into existence behind her with a deafening roar.
Seth, the fire-breathing dragon, spreads its wings wide as it responds to Minako's voice, head thrown back to gaze on the moon that represents its Arcana before throwing all its fury and weight forward. An explosion of fire escapes from its mouth, parting the ocean water before them. And though it's right above her head, hot enough for her to feel like her skin is blistering, Minako doesn't flinch. She kneels wearily on the sand, yes, Seth snapping his jaws shut to return the fire to the furnace after a few moments, but she doesn't flinch.]
Maragidyne...sure takes a lot out of me. Was that four or five in a row?
III. CARD CAPTOR SAKUYA
Cosplay progress; Minako's apartment
[It might be that you don't even realize all of this Persona stuff is happening late at night, and instead you encounter Minako right outside her apartment on a sunny day. She'll be either practicing cosplay poses or perhaps walking around in a pretty white dress, and while how finished it looks depends on what time of the month you stop by, she'll be more than happy to show off what the end product is supposed to look like by practically sticking her phone in your face.]
It's Card Captor Sakuya! You know, the magical girl anime. Kiyomitsu-kun is helping me make it, but I'm breaking in the heels right now.

I didn't mess it up, did I?
no subject
Eh-- It's just a little issue here that'll need some patching up, is all. [MINAKO!! But now he knows to reinforce the seams and secure the zipper, at least.]
It'd be best if I could fix it sooner so the zip doesn't actually tear into anything, but try not to bounce around too much until then, okay?
no subject
R-Right, sorry... [She feels properly chastised, because of course she should be careful in a nice dress that's made for prettiness and not practicality.] If you're not busy, I can jump out of the dress really quick so you can fix it now?
no subject
It's fine, it's fine. I've dealt with worse on the runway. [Mostly because when people do fall on the runway, they go down hard and tear whole pieces of their outfits... It's rare but it's a struggle.]
I'm free for the rest of the afternoon though, so fixing it real quick is no problem!
no subject
[She (very carefully) walks back in, and like a good hostess sets out a glass of iced tea and some snacks for him while she changes out of the dress. Koromaru will also come to keep Kashuu company while he waits!
Wow, she really did some damage to it. Oops.
Soon she's stepping back out into the living room, the dress folded neat in her arms.]
Here you go, Kiyomitsu-kun.
no subject
He'll move to take the dress once she comes back, though! And promptly remove the mini sewing kit from his bag, which he's taken to carrying around lately.]
I'll have to reinforce the area around the zipper better after I pick up some more interfacing, but the rest of this I can patch up now, no problem. Does anything else need to be adjusted?
[Since he's already here dealing with the poor tear and all...]
gomen had to wait for a regain thing...!
Wah--!
[That sounded like a pretty painful knock to the head via wall.]
no worries at all!! sorry for the delay on my end too!
[HE WAS NOT EXPECTING THAT and kinda half-drops the dress reaching forward to try grabbing her arm instead.]
Oh my god, what happened? Are you okay?
you're absolutely fine <3
I think so...?
[Very reassuring.]
It was a vision.
no subject
Ah... One of those hallucinomemory things again?
[They really pick the least convenient times to show up... He'll offer her a hand so she can get back to the couch properly if she wants, but otherwise just looks generally Concerned, especially since most people he knows have been regaining some rough visions lately.]
You gonna be okay?
no subject
Yeah. It was just surprising.
[Her lips curl in a small smile. It's the first past-friend she's seen a vision of that doesn't make her anxious with wondering how she could trust them.]
Bebe was very enthusiastic about sewing and making friends.
no subject
Mm? S'that a friend of yours? Sounds like they have good taste.
no subject
[Speaking of which. She jumps and flails her hands a bit at him.]
Ah! I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt your mending with all that blabber!
no subject
It's fine, it's fine. I was the one who asked, yeah? It's not like any of us can help it when these things happen, either.
no subject
[But she laughs with him, settling back properly into her perch on the couch.]
Shall I tell you more about him while you work?
no subject
[HE'D BELIEVE BOTH. But once he's sure she's fine, he'll mosey back over to pick up his work so he can start again.]
Mm, sure! I'd like to hear a little more.
