NPC CONTACT

premise ⬥ taken ⬥ faq ⬥ navigation

The Velvet Room exists between the consciousness and subconsciousness. It is inaccessible by characters who do not wield a Persona or have lost their Persona for various different reasons. In fact, its entire existence is limited only to Persona users and to the regular individual, they will not be able to even see the entrance to the room. Although it is stationed primarily in the castle, the entrance of the Velvet Room may also be found in various different locations, such as by the dungeons and the shrine. Sometimes, there may be a "malfunction" and an ordinary door will actually lead into the Velvet Room. Why does that happen? Well... perhaps characters will have to ask the attendants for that answer.

Within the room, two attendants occupy the space. These attendants act as guides and will perform various different duties in order to assist the characters. They will pass on plot information, answer questions, give out requests (with the promise of a reward, of course), forge magic-infused weapons, heal, and such on. Requests, in particular, are given out ICly and OOCly monthly and may be undertaken by any character who wishes to complete them. Please see the first toplevel of this entry for more information.

The attendants may be regularly contacted by entering the Velvet Room and, as a result, players may comment to this entry to interact with either attendant. Players may specify which attendant that they'd like to interact with or allow the mods to choose. These threads may be used towards AC and bonus activity. However, due to the attention-intensive nature of NPC threads, these threads may be quickly wrapped up in order to save time for the mods.

→ VELVET ROOM ATTENDANTS

🢒🢒 minato The attendant you might have to wake up, pretending to be asleep so you have to bother Souji instead of him. His requests tend towards what he wants to do or eat at the moment, but he seems to enjoy seeing the world, though he isn't always good company. Seriously. Go bother Souji instead.

🢒🢒 souji The more talkative attendant between the two, though he could say some pretty bizarre things. He also seems overly fond of cats for some reason and will unironically go "nya". His requests normally seem to involve taking him out somewhere or bringing him particularly... strange objects.

[ Yeah, they've sat down and Minato's chosen one of those benches made for more than one person except he takes up the entire space sitting lengthwise with his legs up on the bench. ]

Hm... I dunno. I was prepared to eat the entire bear in one sitting if you cooked all of it.

[overstrain]

[ ...

Wow. That's a big appetite. Terry is surprised and yet he feels like he shouldn't be. ]

Is that why you wanted to order one of everything?

[compendiem]

Uh. I asked if you wanted one of everything, and "two of everything" is easy to say...

[ It was just less words. But he can absolutely eat one of everything. ]

[overstrain]

[ Honestly, that's fair. Terry can understand. He'd probably do that too if he had the appetite and money to eat everything... ]

Man, that's... one way to be lazy.

[compendiem]

...I should've just ordered one of everything and we could've shared. Maybe our food would've come faster.

[ But is half of everything enough? He doesn't want Terry to go home hungry, either. ]

[overstrain]

Probably, yeah... but we have to live with our decisions now.

[ There's a lot of burgers. He'd be fine. Most likely. ]

[compendiem]

[ He made a mistake and now he's regretting. ]

...Wake me up when the food gets here?

[ He's going to just take a nap here. When I say he's not good company this is what I mean. ]

[overstrain]

Sure, sure.

[ When Minato closes his eyes, Terry gets out a small scalp massager from his pocket. The effects were pretty hilarious on the cats, and he wonders what would happen if he used it on Minato.

...

He reaches over with the massager and uses it on Minato's head. ]

[compendiem]

[ Minato rolls off the bench and onto the floor to sleep and get away from Terry's scalp massager, stop that. ]

[overstrain]

[ ...

Terry looks down at where Minato fell off and... the floor is kinda dirty. Terry gets up from his seat to carry Minato back on the bench with his head on the table. Then he proceeds to use the scalp massager again while standing next to him. ]

[compendiem]

[ It's dirty but still preferable to having his scalp tickled like this??

Airi's Cait Sith appears on the table and points its sword at Terry's neck. Please stop that. ]

[overstrain]

[ Your sword does not frighten me, cat warrior!! But Terry pockets the scalp massager and just lets Minato sleep in peace until the food arrives. He'll try again in the future...

Giant trays full of burgers and everything else finally arrives after some time later (it was well over 30 minutes, but Terry could wait while Minato slept). He taps Minato's head. ]

Hey, wake up. The food is here and we can't fit tray on the table with your head on it.

[compendiem]

[ Minato's going to confiscate that torture device if he tries again in the future. ]

Oh...

[ He sits up properly, and then sinks back into a comfortable slouch as he does one of those wide prolonged cat yawns.

Claps his hands together ]

Let's eat.

[overstrain]

[ Terry also claps his hands together. He's gotten used to this part of customs at least. ]

Thanks for the food!

[ He picks up the mystery burger because he's been most excited for that one and bites into it without even looking into what it is. It takes one second for Supreme Regret to start kicking in, because he can smell the spiciness radiating from the burger he just bit into and promptly suffers from level 5. The burger that he bit into is similar to a spicy mexican burger and he can't spit it out. He swallows the amount that he bit off and he feels like there's steam coming off the top of his head. This is why idiots shouldn't be courageous. ]

W-Water...

[compendiem]

[ Minato just reaches over and claps Terry on the back, because he's assuming Terry just took too big a bite and can't get the burger down his throat. His slaps are weak and not very effective, anyways, but there's probably a milkshake of some sort on the table for Terry to save himself because Minato's not going to be useful here. ]

[overstrain]

[ Minato...

Terry finds the slaps uncomfortable because if he was choking, it wouldn't do anything. And if it's to relieve some pain, he feels like he can't eat well because of someone repeatedly hitting his back. Aaaaaaaaaa

He grabs the milkshake and drinks a bit of it, but not too much and resumes eating the mystery burger like a fool, but only because he doesn't want to waste food. He feels like he can breathe fire at this point. ]

[compendiem]

[ Look, Minato has no medical experience? His idea of life support is to equip a Persona who can endure a fatal strike, and then magically heal himself.

But Terry doesn't look like he's choking anymore, so Minato mentally gives himself a pat on the back for helping out, and goes back to eating his burger. He's not a very fast eater, by any means, but he's a steady one, devouring one burger after another with almost no change in expression, unlike when he'd eaten Terry's cooking. ]

[overstrain]

[ Terry tries to distract himself from the pain of spiciness by staring at Minato eat every now and then when he doesn't feel like crying... The way he steadily eats the burgers with barely any change in expression makes him feel curious. Hm.

But he doesn't have the luxury for that right now. He finishes the mystery burger and breathes out and coughs a bit while covering his mouth. He takes a five second break before biting into another burger.

One of everything also means that spicy burger was there.

Death x2 for Terry. ]

[compendiem]

[ Om nom.

Joke's on Terry, because remember that despairing and hateful look Minato got from the employee? The fact that they had to wait for their entire order all at once instead of receiving things bit by bit as they're cooked?

Everything is spicy. The burgers, the fries, even the smoothies. Die, Terry. ]

[overstrain]

[ Sounds like it's time for Terry to die. Thanks, Minato.

Terry keeps eating the burger quietly. It feels like the steam continues to blow out from his head like a tea kettle when it's done boiling water. He drinks the smoothie instead of the milkshake and WHAT THE FUCK AAAAAAAAA ]

What the hell--why is this spicy too?!

[compendiem]

[ It's not his fault? Terry was the one who was all "yeah sure" at Minato's suggestion of one of each. ]

...Aftertaste from the burger?

[ Minato polishes off his third burger and steadily works on the fourth. ]

These are good...

[overstrain]

[ Terry looks immensely confused at smoothie and almost glaring at it. Why have you betrayed my taste buds, smoothie. Why. Despite that, he resumes eating the burger anyway. ]

... I thought you said it gets old fast.

[compendiem]

Yeah.

[ He doesn't speak until the end of his fourth burger, in between unwrapping the fifth. ]

Things can be old but still enjoyable. Like Souji.

[ ...He probably means, like. familiar, or used to, or something. ]

[overstrain]

[ Huh. Terry is stupid, so he takes that as literally old. ]

How old are you guys anyway... You don't look much younger than me, but you've been around for a while, huh.

[compendiem]

Me? 31,568 years old.

[ ... ]

For the record, Souji is 31,567.

[ Minato's the older one, yeah. Someday he'll give Terry serious answers. ]
