[Nightmares make it hard to get restful sleep, alright?

He'll just hold her tight for a while, then slowly loosen his hold to start rubbing her back.]

I'm here, I'm fine. I even have a Persona that would protect me from an attack like that.

[hairpincurves]

R-right, you have Rangda...

[She'll... try to take a few deep breaths to calm down.]

[foolishjustice]

[He nods.]

And even if I didn't...Loki has Tetrakarn.

[hairpincurves]

[Nodding more.]

R-right...

[foolishjustice]

And even if I couldn't access the Metaverse, I have multiple powers that would let me avoid being affected by normal attacks.

[Granted, he sucks at phasing...but if he shifts to the SG, any attempt to hurt him from the RG would just pass right through.]

[hairpincurves]

[As long as Goro keeps talking, that means he keeps breathing...]

Right... at least... at least there's that.

[foolishjustice]

[He makes a habit of breathing, anyway. Especially when someone is sitting close enough to notice if he stopped.]

I know it's easy to worry anyway, but that sort of situation wouldn't be able to hurt me. I've developed a lot of ways to protect myself, lately.

[hairpincurves]

Yeah, I know... It just doesn't... stop the kneejerk reaction.

[She's just glad that the male Akira was kind enough to get rid of the nightmares already...]

[foolishjustice]

I know. And I'll stay here with you as long as it takes for you to assure yourself I'm fine.

[Assuming no sudden emergencies, of course.]

[hairpincurves]

Thank you...

[In the meantime, though, she's going to bury her face in Goro's shoulder.]

... Keep talking, please?

[foolishjustice]

Alright. Is there anything specific you want to talk about?

[hairpincurves]

Not especially... Just... as long as I can hear your voice...

[foolishjustice]

Mmm...well, we were planning to go back to Incendia, right? I don't want to go on a day trip until Akira-kun is doing better, but...

[hairpincurves]

Right... We didn't get to pick up those cosmetic guides last time, did we?

[foolishjustice]

We didn't. And that's something I definitely want to learn...especially since I kind of want to try getting a tattoo, but I'm worried it would give me trouble back home.

[hairpincurves]

And I definitely want to look into it, too. I still have some thinking to do before I'd get a tattoo, though...

One of those blacklight ones would be cool.

[foolishjustice]

I've heard of those. It's definitely a thought, but...I doubt I'd ever end up somewhere they'd be visible, even when I wanted to show them off.

[Sure, he likes dancing, but...he's never really dared go anywhere near Tokyo's nightlife, except as part of his job.]

[hairpincurves]

Yeah... it's mostly just an idle thought. To tell you the truth, I wouldn't even really know what to get to begin with.

[foolishjustice]

I have a couple of ideas in mind for myself. Both of them...rather sentimental.

[hairpincurves]

Oh? Do share.

[foolishjustice]

One of them...I want to be a design that incorporates things that reference my romantic partners. The other is much simpler, my red mask inside a star.

[hairpincurves]

Oh! That sounds pretty great~

[foolishjustice]

I might get the mask first, just because it'll be easier. I'm thinking of putting it somewhere that could easily be either hidden or visible, even without magic.

[hairpincurves]

[She nods, then hums thoughtfully.]

Any ideas there?

[foolishjustice]

Maybe somewhere on my collar. A more professional shirt would hide it, while something with a lower neck would leave it visible.
