🧙 WHO: Mitsuru Kirijo and you!
⚔️️ WHAT: Mitsuru getting the lay of the land after arriving in Camelot
đź•’ WHEN: Starting June 14th, and the next few days afterwards
🗺️ WHERE: Around Camelot, S.E.E.S. House
⚠️ WARNINGS: None, but she’s from Persona 3, so that may change, and I will tag if it does
Wandering
[ Camelot was … not what Mitsuru would have expected from the stories that she’d read.
[ Perhaps she should have adjusted her expectations after receiving her smart phone and seeing the Red Spring, but it was still strange to think of this seemingly modern city as the mythical seat of King Arthur. If it weren’t for the castle looming above the buildings and the omnipresence of nature, harmoniously woven into every aspect of the city’s layout and architecture, it could have passed for any number of cities from her own world.
[ In spite of the familiar veneer, though, it wasn’t her world. It was an entirely new one, separate from everything that she’d experienced up to this point, and she knew precious little about it.
[ She was determined to fill in at least some of those gaps in her understanding today.
[ She wandered throughout the city with no aim besides exploration, taking a meandering path between a few different landmarks and neighborhoods, stopping periodically if any particular locale or store captured her interest. All the while, her familiar - a white-furred fox with two tails - padded alongside her.
[ Should anyone attempt to speak to her … she’ll stop and converse.
[ She wants to learn about this place. What better start is there than speaking to the people who live there? ]
Training
[ Getting the lay of the land was not Mitsuru’s only priority. She was brought here for a purpose - restoring Avalon’s magic - and accomplishing that task appeared to be the only way that she and the others could return home. Given how many people have been brought here and how long they’ve had to develop their magical abilities already, she’s aware that the progress she can make as an individual is likely miniscule … but once she’s settled in to her room in the house that Kotone, Yukari, and Aragaki-san had purchased, she’s quick to search for a training area so that she can begin developing her own.
[ Goal-oriented as always, Mitsuru was eager to contribute. Beyond that, she’d already learned that this world had it’s fair share of threats, and it seemed foolish not to familiarize herself with one of the primary tools that she could use to protect herself and others … especially since it seemed that she could no longer summon Artemisia …
[ Mitsuru tried to push that thought - and the sense of profound absence that it created - towards the back of her mind as she made her way towards the training ground. By the time that she stepped out onto one of the practice ranges, she’d managed some measure of success in that effort.
[ Instead of the missing part of herself, she focused her attention on one of the wooden targets at the other end of the range. She slowly lifted her right hand, flattening it out into a blade as a thin rime of frost began to gather on her skin. In one smooth, slashing motion, she flicked her hand in the direction of the target, and launched a thin spear of ice from the tips of her fingers.
[ The projectile sailed through the air and embedded itself in the target.
[ Mitsuru splayed out her fingers and the ice expanded, causing the wood around it to crack and splinter.
[ Perhaps it wasn’t quite the same as channeling her Persona’s ice-based abilities … but it was effective.]
Shopping (Locked tointoxication and foolaround)
[ Mitsuru, of course, did have some downtime over the course of that first week. Magic was still new to her, and using it extensively seemed to exhaust her the way that her early trips into Tartarus had. It was getting easier to use bit-by-bit, but Mitsuru was still taking care not to push herself too hard until she grew accustomed to it.
[ So, despite her desire for further practice, she’d decided that the second day would be something of a recovery day. Instead of finding a training range or a quest or anything of that nature, she intended to spend the day searching through Avalon Online to learn more about the world around her … about magic, recent events, potential allies and enemies …
[ Maybe she’d go into the city later and explore it further, but for now … ]

no subject
No matter. She smiles politely and shakes her head.
"No bother at all." Mitsuru replies, briefly glancing down as her fox walks towards Edelgard and Shaggydog, giving the wolf a few cursory sniffs of her own. "To myself or Hippolyta, it seems."
Her attention shifts back to Edelgard.
"And yes, it would appear so ... though I suspect you may have a better understanding of the situation than I do, given that I've only arrived within the past few days."
