[Closed] A Gathering of Thieves

[nuclearpowered]

Who: The Phantom Thieves and their Shinki
What: Information Sharing.
Where: The Far Shore, the Park
When: July 26th, Late Afternoon
Summary: 3 new gods arrive to find that 2 of their closest friends are dead, and they are responsible
for two other people as well. A talk is needed.

Warnings: Major Persona 5 Spoilers in comments, also probably language.



[Arriving here with little warning had been jarring enough, but when the Phantom Thieves realized that they weren't alone, and that two of their number had no memories, it was time to confer somewhere. Temples and the like had felt a little raw, and not wanting to stray too far from the Far Shore until they had their bearings, the group had gathered in the park. Akira, Ann, Futaba, Makoto, and Ryuji, along with the shinki that had unwittingly become part of their circle, all standing around in a small clearing, talking. It should've been a positive occasion, but there was no denying the shroud that hung over the group. There was a lot to talk about, and things that needed to be agreed upon.

The question was...how to even start?]

I'm guessing Theia is your goddess name? I've heard of some going by that name but most that I've run into prefer their normal names. Either way is fine, I think.

Yeah. Gonna just stuck with Futaba, though. [Or maybe Alibaba, when she was online.] Not really sure how that works actually, thinking about. People pray to me right?

So do they pray to me or to Theia? Does it matter? I mean it would sort of have to not matter but somehow it feels like a pretty big detail...

[asterflower]

Futaba-san, then.

[Shion gives a light shrug of his shoulders.] If I understand all the information I read right, they pray to you. That you and Theia are one and the same person now. Technically, humans more than likely know the name Theia, though.

[San. Futaba-san. She didn't think anyone had ever actually called her that before. Huh. It had a nice ring to it.]

Guess that makes sense. Gonna have to build up my own fanbase, probably. [She grinned.] Shame this isn't all online somehow I would be queen of everything then!

[asterflower]

[She'll have to get used to it, it's a mannerism Shion is used to.

Shion looks a little puzzled...]

Fanbase? Online...? What does that have to do with...

[What's that got to do with being a god?]

[herecomethebuffs]

Well the internet is a fantastic place to go if you want to get popular. And you know what you're doing. And I really, really know what I'm doing.

[She grinned. No modesty there, clearly.]

Back home...well. Let's just say I was known far and wide under my internet alias!

[asterflower]

[Honestly, he likes her bout of confidence. He smiles and looks impressed.]

I'm sure you won't have any trouble with followers then, Futaba-san. Maybe you can teach Ryuji-san a thing or two.
