Who: The Izanagi Household
When: backdated to waaaay back at the end of June >.>
Where: Izanagi Jingu
What: Nanako's had a Day...


[ It's late evening when Nanako gets back to her brother's Temple after a full day out trying to answer a Prayer. She lets herself in the front door and toes off her shoes before stepping up into the hall and crossing into the big open room that takes up most of the first floor of Souji's home.

Except her normal exuberance is missing and she looks drained and exhausted and after casting a tired look at the stairs, she decides that looks like too much work and goes to curl up on the couch in the living room instead, wrapping herself snugly about a pillow and clinging to it as if it was one of her stuffed animals.

She even forgets to call out that she's home, but as she's not sure who else is here at the moment, it doesn't really occur to her as she goes to huddle on the couch for a while instead. ]

[She 'looks' between Izanagi and Souji. Sure Souji wants to help but...]

I don't want to hit him.

[socials]

[ Souji can't help but laugh a little, putting his hands on his hips as he looks up at Izanagi.

The Persona regards them for a moment, before lowering himself down to gently pat Nanako on the head - despite the fact his hand is bigger than her - and then he summons his great weapon. With a nod of confirmation from Souji, he stabs it into the ground.

And hangs the mat from it, piercing it to do so. Both he and Souji lift their hands to gesture to it. ]

Better?

[welcome_home]

[ Nanako giggles when Izanagi pets her on the head, smiling up at him in delight.

At the compromise, she gives them both a happy nod. ]

Much better!

[timeshields]

[Satisfaction runs across their bond.]

Yes. It is.

[socials]

Then whenever you're ready.

[ Izanagi makes a point to move around behind them, so that they're no longer concerned about hitting him. Souji figures that this works out in the end, if they're both satisfied. ]

[welcome_home]

[ Nanako beams up at the persona for a moment longer. ]

Thank you, Izanagi-san! Thank you, onii-chan.

[ Which brings her back to the matter at hand - the bow she now holds and the makeshift target across the yard. ]

Uhh. Okay. I'm gonna try... [ Unsure if she was doing this right, she brings the bow up in a mimicry of how she thinks she's supposed to stand, making a quiet sound of surprise when a glowing arrow appears as she pulls back the string. ]

[timeshields]

[She considers the glowing purple energy arrow. It seems like... this is her power when she's in this form.

Good, it's better for attacking things that might get close to Nanako.]

Aim and fire.

[socials]

[ Souji observes along with his Persona, considering the entire thing thoughtfully. He's never used a bow, and none of their friends did, either, so... he can't help but think to himself that maybe he should find someone that might know how to use a bow and arrow.

He makes a soft noise of surprise, that turns into an encouraging gesture - mimicking her pulling back the string - when the arrow appears. ] As far back as you can pull it, Nanako.

[welcome_home]

[ Nanako nods in determination, tongue caught between her teeth as she pulls the string back farther until her arm shakes from the strain.

Only when she can't pull back anymore does she release the arrow, still clutching the bow tightly a she waits with baited breath. ]
