Persona 4 RP Phase 2

"Maeko would catch the corpse." Masuyo said with a laugh.

"And then go "Tch." and just throw it back in the river." Nene said with a smile.

"Yeah that sounds like her. I can see her scowl already too!" Yomiko said laughing.

"Speaking of Maeko-chan, she just left a few moments ago." Chiaki said quietly enjoying her meal.

"Yeah I saw. I figure she doesn't wanna be around a huge group of people at the moment." Yomiko said.

"Maaaaaaaaaaaan girls are so complicated. You never know if thats some stupid sign that they want someone to go console them or if they legitimately wanna be left alone. Right Shinta?" Masuyo said

Shinta shrugged, "Pretty much."

"...Maybe I'll go talk to her..." Dahni said, in a far more serious a tone than before. "She's rough around the edges, but she'll pull through if we help her..."

Kentaro sits up and tries to pull the fork out of his back but cant reach so he gives up.

"Man you guys are so cold. I lie here dead and you talk about throwin' me in the river while some of you straight up leave."

He climbs of the table and leaves as well.

"Who actually believes that someone dies from a fork?" asked Shinta.

"I'll go help him." said Karin following after Kentaro.

"Hey...Maeko..." Dahni sat down next to her. "...How's the fish?"

"Bye bye." Nene said waving.

*rattle*

"......did you guys hear something?" Nene asked.

*rattle rattle*

"........The table is shaking." Yomiko said as she looked under it to see Tsubasa hugging one of the table legs trembling. "*sigh* Lemme guess."

"I-i-im afraid of the dark!" she said on the verge of tears.

"Well the lights are back. Can we eat now?" Yomiko said sitting down.

"Theres smoothie all over my fish." Masuyo complained.

"Not my problem." Yomiko said coldly as she began to eat.

"...It's fine." Maeko replied, finishing off the fish and setting her plate down. She say down, hre knees infront of her and her arms wrapped around them. "...The group got too random for me."

"Kentaro?" Karin called as she looked for him, "Where are ya, buddy?"

Kentaro is in the kitchen trying to reach the fork with a pair of tongs but he still can't get it.

"Who's there?" he asks as Karin comes in behind him.

"Just me. Hold still." Karin quickly pulled the fork out of Kentaro's back. "There ya go."

"The way I see it...It's their way of having fun and coping. I mean...I haven't been here long, but they deal with this overarching threat of getting killed every day, you know?" Dahni said, sitting down next to her.

"I suppose..but it's not my way. It's just all one big headache to me." Maeko said, rubbing her head and looking up at the sky. "Anyway, did you need something?"

"I wanted to make sure you're okay." She responded. "...I want to convince you that there's someone out there that really does care about you and want to be your friend. To hell with that Toshiyuki guy." She clenched her fist.

"Wow. This actually isn't bad with the smoothie on it." Masuyo said eating his fish.

"The miso soup is splendid as well. Where did you learn to cook Nene-chan?" Chiaki asked.

"I.......er.........it was for.......someone important." Nene said tensing up.

"A boyfriend?" Yomiko asked with one eye open.

"No.......don't worry about it heheh!" Nene responded with a laugh trying to avoid the subject.

"...Thanks." Maeko said sighing. "Friend making just isn't my thing, you know? I grew up without any, so I never knew how to make any, or even bother. I was with my grandfather all the time."

"What's your grandfather like?" She asked, hugging her knee.

"...Long story short. He was my idol, my hero." Maeko mumbled, turning away.

"Phew! Thanks for the food." Masuyo said putting his hands together. "Guess its cleanin time." he said as he began to gather people's plates and such.

"I'll help." Yomiko said grabbing dishes also.

"Well then we'll start taking snacks upstairs." Nene said as she jumped out of her seat.

"But my room is locked." Masuyo said.

"Who said we got anything for you guys?" Nene asked back.

"......You've got to be fucking kidding me." he responded as he stomped out of the room

"Gimme the long version." She smiled at her.

"..Y-you don't need to know the long version." Maeko mumbled, pulling her hat over down over her eyes.

"But I want to know." She smiled at her, looking down to see her eyes under her hat.

Maeko growled under her breath and turned away. "...Fine, if you want to know that badly.."

"Ouch!" Kentaro says as Karin pulls the fork out. "Thanks."

Masuyo comes into the kitchen looking peeved. "Hey Masu-bro what's up?"

"Dude. We gotta have something to one up those women." Masuyo said to Kentaro as he signaled to head to his room"Gettin their own drinks n shit."
