Team Building Exercise [Raku, Senty, Naomi]

Walking on, Naomi gave a fervent speech about how Chance should keep the color and all, which made Sharaku chuckle a bit. Persistent indeed. Even Chance seemed to be taken aback, or better said embarassed a bit. He could see why that was so. Some of his team members were so damn energetic in their ways. Mainly Hyde, but Naomi was a close second. He had no problems keeping up with them, -usually- but it was rather unlike him to participate in such playful conditions. He wasn't against playing in itself, but not in such childish ways. Sometimes it took a lot of patience for him not to just try and shush them down. However, it wasn't his place to tell them how to behave. They were rather different from him, and he did take that into account. It did slightly worry him at times tough. So far, they weren't doing badly, but he had a feeling that being carefree wasn't the smartest way to go when dealing with the supernatural. Outside of it, to clear the tension, yes, that could work. But even in the middle of fights and such? Well, maybe he just had a different kind of mindset than them.

''Might be useful to try. Even though I do doubt there is much that we could hope to predict with these creatures. But, you never know what you can find out.'', he would shrug thoughtfully, when Sentinel suggested he keep track of their enemies weak points, after realizing that this second batch had grown in power rather suddenly. He didn't think research would conduct much, but it isn't like you pay for a try, and the android seemed willing to give it a go. So, why not? What surprised him at this point was, that Hyde kept silent for most of the walking. That was an unusual occurence for the generally chippery redhead. He appreared to be thinking of something, but Sharaku had no idea what could be so important to make him quiet down so rapidly. Then again, scratch that, he barely understood Hyde anyway, even when the redhead talked in his usual manner. They were just too different for him to understand completely, even if he tried his best. There are things that are simply outside of one's range. And as such, he had always had problems comprehending Hyde's nature. Because honestly, even before those experiments, Sharaku had never been as lively as the redhead, therefore he had next to zero ground to build on in this. Effort always counted, but sometimes that was not nearly enough. What he did understand though, was that difference did not always mean something bad. Well, he'd see, won't he?

Back into reality, they finally made it to their destination. ''It seems so. Together yes, as in getting beaten up as a group.'', he would comment, in a light tone though, not meaning that seriously. He couldn't deny he was always a bit skeptical about their teamwork, but at least he was fine with playing it off humorously...so far. ''Yes, indeed. We are always around, if you feel like meeting up again sometime.'', he would add as Hyde said his offer to Chance. The attendant was a bit strange, but he had no reason to consider them a bad company. That aside they were finally outta there....

Movement:

She wondered if she had said something weird as Chance appeared to turn away from her. She thought she was becoming better at talking, but maybe she was still as bad as ever. The thought made her blush in embarrassment. Was she overestimating herself and her growth? What a dumb thing to do, “I’m sorry.” She would mumble under her breath, hoping that would make up for anything she had sad. Probably not, but she could try.

Naomi couldn’t believe how big this place seemed. She wasn’t exactly sure what way they had traveled, since she had just been playing follow the leader, but it felt sort of like a circle. Except it had corners, so maybe a square. For some reason, it felt like it took a long time to walk that distance. She recalled seeing more hallways while they were walking, meaning there was more to this place. Just how much was there in this place? Thinking about it made her head hurt. Intertwined seemed concerned about her again, to which she would simply smile down at them, “Sorry. I almost forgot about you guys.” She called them back inside of her at last. They had done a good job and deserved to rest until she next called for them. Hopefully, that wouldn’t be too soon. She still had a life outside of fighting with Shadows, after all. That reminded her, she was backed up with work. She would have to stay up late tonight to catch up with it all. That was always fun…

She would wave to each person as they left through a door. She looked back in the direction they had just come from with a look of worry on her face. This place was dangerous. Even with their Persona, it was dangerous. One little mistake could get somebody hurt, maybe worse. It was important that nobody who wasn’t ready came here. She puffed up her cheeks and put her hands to her face as she realized she was getting too serious again. Even if that was true, she shouldn’t have been thinking about it so much. It would be fine. As long as nobody wandered inside of here carelessly, everything would be okay. When it was her turn to take of she would give a small, playful bow to the one who remained, “I’ll be off now. Make sure you get home properly and eat and rest plenty to make up for this incident.” She was making it obvious that she was mockingly playing the part of a mother. That role was supposed to fall on the pink member, but they didn’t have one yet, so she needed to fill the role as best she could until then, “Until we meet again, goodbye.” With that, she made her way through the pink door and was on her way back home. There was still plenty to be done before the day was through.

((I'm out of here))

The android watched Chance get embarrassed from or look away in an attempt to hide something. Evidently, what Naomi said was effective to say the very least. Well that was what it was, it appeared these attendants were capable of human emotions too. Though, perhaps they like him didn't understand certain concepts well, as was shown with the attendant's confusion with colors. Even the android was confused about that concept. They were both explorers seeking to understand humanity so they could stop playing "human", and be human. They were both close, but yet there were something that kept them from being human. Granted, Sentinel was in no great hurry to surpass his metallic parts, he was more than content to remain in this form as it had benefits that allowed him to surpass the frailty of flesh. Even though he wasn't human he still experienced human events. He still had those dreams about his creator, and machines couldn't dream....could they? However, he was not a simple machine by any means, but how could he dream. His directives were very simple, protect Maria Farren at any and all costs. There wasn't much to dream about, but even since that night....what he thought was a simple glitch had transformed into a nightmare. That was terrifyingly real to the android, and those words would echo in his head.  


Sharaku would mention that it would be difficult to identify the weaknesses of some of the creatures that they will encounter. Well that was true, no doubt there would be a variety of creatures that they would encounter. There was no possible way Sentinel would be able to find the weakness of new creatures, but he would be able to recall the weaknesses of past enemies. "You are right it would be difficult to know an enemy's weakness, but I believe I can remember them and then be able to bring it up the next time we fight. Hopefully that will allow us to prioritize our attacks and targets." It was a smart way to battle and would allow the group to be far more efficient with their abilities and Personas. At last they arrived at where they had started, thank goodness. There were no more battles to be fought, it was risky to do this, and it looked bad there for a moment, but it all worked out in the end. "Yes, well done everyone. However, I must go spend time with Maria, I promised I would help her with science tonight, and then we would draw afterwards." With that the android would return back to reality, and go attend to Maria.
