Recycling of the bassdestruction AU
So, What the Hell is Going On Here?
- Did not get Death sealed inside him back in the day. Was still on the Moonlight Bridge that day, but has repressed it and all but forgotten, as much as one can.
- Was adopted along with female Minato (they both exist in this world) soon after his parents died. They've essentially been brother and sister ever since. Not blood-related, but still extremely close.
- Arrived at Gekkoukan High on the fated day with Minako. Did not see Pharos. If the Dark Hour is going on, they sure as hell don't know about it.
- Went to school, got settled, and generally did their thing. Minato's been musical all his life, and the pair plan to settle here for awhile. So, the first thing out of this Minako's mouth when the culture clubs open up for new members?
- "...we should start a band."
- The rest is history. They're about midway through the year now, and their band - SEES, natch - is getting pretty popular. They've released their first album to positive reviews.
So, Who's in the Band?
Minato Arisato (male): Vocals, songwriting ([info]bassdestruction)
Minako Arisato (female): Vocals, songwriting ([info]singingallout)
Junpei Iori: Bass guitar, backing guitar
Yukari Takeba: Lead guitar, backing vocals
Akihiko Sanada: Saxophone, PR assistant, piano
Fuuka Yamagishi: Keyboards, mixing, technical stuff ([info]133tm35t3r)
Shinjiro Aragaki: Drums, trombone, backing guitar
Mitsuru Kirijo: Manager, Public Relations
Kenji Tomochika: Merchandising (sells the t-shirts)
Bebe: Costumes
Anything Else?
- Minato's a showman, if nothing else, so while he still retains his moderately quiet personality, he's got a lot more charm and confidence than other Minatos may have. A bit of a rockstar, if you will.
- Minato can also play the guitar, violin, and keyboards moderately well.
- CHARM: Lv. 5; COURAGE: Lv. 4; ACADEMICS: Lv. 2. Study week is not his favourite week, since he tends to doodle lyrics in class.
- Aigis isn't here. Ken, having no connection without the Potential, isn't either. Ryoji is also not there, for obvious reasons. Koromaru is.
- Whether the Dark Hour exists in this AU is still undecided. If it does, it's someone else's problem.
- Because we are uncreative, most of SEES' tracks will be stuff from the P3/P3P/P4 soundtracks. Minato & Minato will have, for all intents and purposes, written Mass Destruction, Wiping All Out, et al. They've got a bit of a rock angle to them, what can I say.
- Those assholes from Strega have an opposing band, too; called, predictably enough, Strega. They're more hard-rock/metal as opposed to SEES' style, on the up-and-up as well, even if they're more underground.
Takaya: Lead guitar, vocals
Jin Shirato: Bass guitar, backing vocals, keyboards
Chidori Yoshino: Drums, vocals
- Strega's roles are more fluid since I seriously have no idea, dude. Feel free to fuck with that however you like.
And finally, as this AU is still a work-in-progress: anyone who wants to pick up one of the other characters from it is more than welcome! I'd ask that you drop me a line on this post first, but there's a 98% chance that I'll say FUCK YES.
