[ peering into the pot to sniff. tasty... ]

That's the best thing you can do, man. And don't forget it.

[aspirings]

[It does smell good... Tsukasa grins at Yosuke at that.]

As if I ever could!

Regardless, that will need to simmer for twenty minutes or so.

[Hmmm, how to entertain themselves in the meantime...]

Ah, I know! Will you tell me more about your powers in the meantime? I understand somewhat the broad strokes of how they work now, but there's still a lot I don't know. What were those--attacks you used?

[aerodynamic]

[ he can deal with twenty minutes, sure. there's a smile though because he's glad tsukasa's agreeing, and then he blinks a little at the question. ]

Oh, yeah sure.
All of our Personas can learn different skills the stronger they are, but they can only really keep eight of them at a time. So as we get stronger some powers are forgotten and others get a boost.
All of us kind of specialize in certain elements, too.
Mine's wind, so I can use really powerful wind spells against opponents either individually or a group all at once.
We try to keep a good mix of offensive and defensive spells on us.
I told you I can usually heal, too, didn't I?
I have that, my wind spells, and a few powers that boost my wind spells and protect me from my weaknesses.
All of us have elements we're weak to and mine's lightning.

[aspirings]

I see, I see!

[Huuuh!!]

I wonder how those elements are decided... do you have any idea?

If I were to have one, I would want wind to be mine as well.

[aerodynamic]

[ huh. he takes a moment to think this through. ]

I don't know actually. I guess it's just... however our Personas are formed, so maybe whatever was in our hidden feelings and our Shadows.
Yu's first Persona, Izanagi, was strong in lightning. Kanji's is, too. Chie and Teddie have ice, Yukiko has fire, and Naoto kind of has strengths in a bunch of stuff.

[ there's a pause in his writing. ]

Wait I'm stupid, it could be because of the gods they take after. I don't know know.

[aspirings]

[Hm...]

...

...

... You're weak to lightning, you just said--

[aerodynamic]

Yeah, why?

[ what do your theater eyes see... ]

[aspirings]

Huh... it just feels narratively poetic that you would be weak to the element that Yu first obtained--

[TSUKASA YOU CAN'T JUST SAY THINGS LIKE THAT.]

[aerodynamic]

[ WHEEZE. ]

DUDE.
NO.
Izanagi's also weak to wind, so it's not like that!

[ this is not helping. ]

[aspirings]

[And now, the plot twist.

Because this is Tsukasa.

He just tilts his head.]

Right! That makes perfect sense. You are partners, so you're able to cover for each other's weaknesses perfectly!

[... Hang on.]

Why do you look so flustered?
