WELCOME TO THE VELVET ROOM;

[velvetyhelpers]

[Every new arrival to Prospero owns a key. Along with their phone and their Arcana card, it is one of the four things all Persona-users have in common.]

[The fourth thing is an assigned living space, whether it be in the hotel or in student dorms. And when the key is brought near the door of that specific room, a new keyhole appears as if expecting it. Opening the door with this key instead of the standard one results in the entrance leading to another place entirely...]



[Welcome to the Velvet Room. Sit down, make yourself at home. The long-nosed master of this room and his assistant may not answer all your questions, but they are more than willing to speak to their visitors all the same.]

[ooc: Catch-all Velvet Room post--if your character wants to speak to the inhabitants, here's where to go.]

[After surviving the first Dark Hour and awakening her Persona, Korra has had less than a warm reception regarding it. Congratulations, you have now one angry Avatar.]

Hey. You guys in here?! I want an explanation!

[tvknpc]

[Igor is in his usual position on the couch today, but as usual it's Elizabeth who speaks first.]

How may we be of service to you?

[avatardealwithit]

You guys know about these Persona things we have, right? How come I have someone else's Persona. I just got attacked by this crazy troll person because of that!

[tvknpc]

Oh, my...

A Persona is the reflection of one's heart. The specific manifestation may be similar for some--it all depends on the angle at which the reflection is viewed.

[avatardealwithit]

So I guess that means there's no way to change my persona then immediately. Great. Just what I always wanted. A crazy person out to get met because of a cause of similar persona.

Wait, what do you mean 'depends on the angle'?

[tvknpc]

Much like the Arcana itself, a Persona's significance all depends on the perspective one takes in looking at it.

[avatardealwithit]

Arcana?

[She pulls out the Fool card from her pocket.]

You mean this thing?

[tvknpc]

That is correct, yes.

[avatardealwithit]

What exactly are they? I'm pretty sure we never had this sort of thing at home.

[Today we find out a mystery. The mystery is, "does knocking before entering the velvet room conduct sound into the velvet room?"

Which is to say Schroedinger's sound effect may or may not occur before the red-headed woman appears and takes a few steps into the room.]

Did you get that?

[Seems like she's got business other than just that, but... yep.]

[tvknpc]

Hm? Did we get what?

[devola]

Oh, just a knock. A warning sound. That kinda thing.

apologies for the ridiculous slowness

[tvknpc]

I heard no such thing.

[Pout.]

s'all gewd~

[devola]

Huh. Rats. Well, that answers one question, at least...

[A small sigh, and she folds her hands behind her back.]

Was hoping you'd have the spare time to answer a few other questions, too.
