[Walking into the store looking well, MORE pale than usual there is Elizabeth, occasionally dabbing her forehead with a wash cloth and looking like she's running a major fever, but peering through the records]

"There is a tune from times yet to come that I was searching for...."

"Hrm...."

[She ponders and has been doing some research on how to deal with hysteria, so she takes off one of her gloves, walks over and slaps Yosuke]

"Do not sound like one who would start an ordeal. It is undignified."

[WHAP. He's momentarily stunned, and when his brain recovers he slumps back on his stool]

Right... sorry. It's been like this all day.

What, ask someone to sit around and slap me all day long?

Even if I knew someone who would, my face can't take it.

... okay fine, so I could take it.

No one is going to sit here and slap my face all day long.

"True, that job usually falls to one who is linked by the lovers card..."

... Ruri can't.

[And by the look on his face he's doing his best to stop himself from going full on depressed]

[She peers at him and ponders]

"Overcome by the town as well... I see... Alas I am not one who's soul understands Dia... So I am of little assistance."

... if I had my persona, she'd be fine. She... she'd be right here with me...

[Deep breaths. Deep breaths. He can do this.]

[She peers at him, her golden eyes twinkling in a way that almost looks like some horrible confession may be coming from them]

"Persona are power, no power comes without cost. Consider that, consider the pact you made and consider what may happen if you loose yourself to that pact."

[He does stop to consider it - how long as it been since he thought about the first moment he acquired his persona? Standing there in that twisted liquor store, listening to the other side of him talk, accepting it as his own. Owning it. Claiming it.

But now it's owning him, isn't it? He's so desperate to get it back. He's not the master anymore. His shadow is.

That one realization hits him like a freight train, and he wobbles on his stool, struggling to stay upright as he deals with the cold hard fact that he's losing control of his persona.]

I...

I...

"Focus. Find yourself in the madness. Then face the darkness and claim power. Do not let the power claim you in the meantime."

... right.

I won't let this stupid town beat me. And I won't let my shadow win, either.

I can do this. No sweat.

[Except he can feel the milk induced madness tugging at him and he grins ever so slightly]

Maybe a little sweat.

"Perspiration is something I am... New to. I can not say I care for it much, but I guess that with the bonuses of mortal form there are also the problems."

[She pouts a little]

"Still, remember to own your darkness, do not let it own you or you are simply another ordeal waiting to begin."
