[ Eventually, Sanguine is going to get to his first bout of point-spending— on a memory, but because he chose to be cheap, you all get to see it.

(A brief summary: Sanguine is in a blue, velvet room with some people and ends up joining a band with two of his friends.) ]

Oh...! I can play guitar!

[dragonheartedgirl]

[ Most of this really goes over her head (what is a visual kei?) but nonetheless--no, maybe because she doesn't understand it?--her attention is rapt to the screen until the memory on display comes to an end. ] I see. So maybe there's a reason they picked some of us for this, after all. You're already a musician.

[motorcycle_noises]

We haven't done much musically so far, beyond "here's your units, congratulations you're an idol."

[ Sanguine shrugs, his hand fidgeting restlessly at his side. ]

...But it's definitely a possibility.

[dragonheartedgirl]

You weren't at that first game? They made us perform... [ and other stuff... ]

[motorcycle_noises]

I slept through it, and the only thing I've heard is "someone broke their arm."

[dragonheartedgirl]

Two of my teammates did. But... before that, we had to dance, and make an oath, and I know some units had to act things out... things like that.

[motorcycle_noises]

So there is a performance aspect. Huh...

[criminaljustice]

[. . . that's the part you focus in on, huh.]

[motorcycle_noises]

[ Why, what would YOU focus on? ]

Maybe I should get a guitar....

[criminaljustice]

[THE ENTIRE ROOM IS BLUE VELVET?]

Acoustic or...?

[motorcycle_noises]

[ Maybe that was a little weird. ]

Electric probably.

[criminaljustice]

... soooo. Gonna start a band here, too?

[motorcycle_noises]

That band was—

[ ....That guy.... whose name he doesn't remember yet...... ]

...the other guy's. But it's a piece of who I am, unless these memories are a lie. I'd like to try and figure that out.

[afailedmurder]

What an unusual band...

[motorcycle_noises]

[ Sanguine considers that. ]

You think so?

[ Not that he looks bothered.... mostly just confused. ]

[afailedmurder]

Well, perhaps that's simply your aesthetic, but I feel as if there were elements there that I didn't fully understand...

[motorcycle_noises]

I don't remember a lot, but I can try to answer any questions.

[afailedmurder]

Could you tell me about Personas?

[motorcycle_noises]

We were using them to fight something, and I think they're supposed to be pieces of ourselves?

[rollwithdisadvantage]

Congratulations. That'll live up our space.

Whose the old guy?

[motorcycle_noises]

That's Igor. I'm pretty sure talking to him was my reason for being there in the first place.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

Oh. Well if you don't mind me asking, what does Igor actually do?

[motorcycle_noises]

He's the guy I have to talk to in order to summon more Persona.

[rollwithdisadvantage]

[He'll bite and ask the obvious question.]

What is a Persona?

[motorcycle_noises]

It's... pieces of yourself given form and power? I'm not entirely clear on the concept yet, but I felt like I understood it pretty well back then.
