[Jaunt] Check-in

[shiroganeheir]

[Naoto's mental voice is higher than usual, and definitely worried.]

Can someone please tell me what's going on? I seem to be stuck in a compact. Again. If someone could help find me, that would be greatly appreciated.

[She coughs and composes herself.]

At any rate, those of us who are Investigating should likely check in. Please let us know who is here, and any information you might have. For those who are new... welcome to your first Jaunt.

[Another pause.]

Oh. And I am Naoto Shirogane, usually small with a blue hat, but sometimes larger. Or a rock. Or a cat person. It is complicated.... but I always have my hat.

Comments

[shiroganeheir]

Oh, thank you, Rise. I... appreciate it.

[senpaidol]

Okay uh...got it open, but.

[She blinks.]

I'm looking at some kinda bottle cap that's registering as you. Can you see me?

[shiroganeheir]

Um. If what Naoki-kun told me is correct, I think that bottle cap thing is like a pokeball. If you... call me out of it, or throw it or something, I might come out?

[senpaidol]

I'm not gonna shout "Go, Naoto-kun!" unless I have to. Let me just try throwing you down...sorry if this is a bad idea.

[POGSPIKE!]

[action-ish]

[shiroganeheir]

[As she throws it down, there is a flash of familiar blue light, and Naoto flies out... as Sukuna-Hikona. Back on the network....]

... I'm Sukuna-Hikona... and I'm a foot and a half tall.

[senpaidol]

THIS IS THE CUTEST THING I'VE EVER SEEN!

[shiroganeheir]

I am a dignified detective, Rise. I shouldn't be a foot and a half tall!

[It's not convincing at all.]

[senpaidol]

Do...do you want to perch on my shoulder? I think you'd fit.

[shiroganeheir]

[It takes a long time for Naoto to answer, and when she does, it's quiet.]

...yes

[senpaidol]

Hee~.

Have a seat and let's go find Souji and the others.

[This is going to be really creepy once she starts thinking about it but she's going to enjoy the hell out of it until then.]

I've got a pocket Naotooo~

[shiroganeheir]

[Ok, this might be fun.]

... oh... Rise.... I can fly!

[There's a sudden, extremely excited 'eeeeeeeeeeeeee']

[senpaidol]

Finally got one where you can do that naturally, huh?

Spread your wings, Naoto. I'll try not to sing any famous fairy tale musical songs.

[shiroganeheir]

... I don't do pixie dust.

[senpaidol]

Aw, but Pixie's cute. I guess Sukuna-Hikona is cuter, though.

[shiroganeheir]

I think I saw Pixie once.

[She just grins.]

Sukuna-Hikona is the cutest, thank you. He is the tiniest persona, and the cutest.

[senpaidol]

And now you're the tiniest and the cutest. And we don't have to fight over who's wearing taller shoes or not.
