[Rise has been making her way slowly back to the village. She's biting on her lower lip and trying not to cry.]

I-I'm back.

[She slides down the side of the bridge, sitting at the river bed.]

[Souji had been wandering through the village that day, probably conveniently heading to the river. The rain really changed how you could view something and what you saw. Luckily, he was carrying an umbrella.

...Then he saw something--no, someone--that looked familiar.]

...Rise?

[now_on_demand]

Senpai!

[time for a-typical Rise glomp!]

[truthatjunes]

[He's prepared for it.]

You're in better shape than I'd expect.

[now_on_demand]

They roughed me up but... most of it was using my Persona.

[Action]

[truthatjunes]

I see...

Let's get you home. You'll need your rest, and we wouldn't want you getting sick out here.

[Action]

[now_on_demand]

Okay.

[He holds her close to him, underneath the umbrella, so he can keep her dry while he escorts her home.]

[now_on_demand]

[She holds on to him, head tilted down so he doesn't see her stupid smile.]

[Action]

[truthatjunes]

[He hides it well, but he is actually blushing a bit while he walks with her.]

[Action]

[now_on_demand]

[Totally not looking up.]

What did I miss?

[Action]

[truthatjunes]

Giant squid.

[now_on_demand]

[truthatjunes]

There was a giant squid here.
