[ w h y are you l i k e this. ]

my apologies, but i don't...
though i suppose that answers the question of "where did you get that," if you're asking me
did Retrospec send you a notice for it?

[compendiem]

[ it's the start of his bounty hunter au arc ]

Oh. That's fine. Yeah, I got it from the mailbox. I have the associated memory too- that's why I came directly to you. I was hoping you could clarify some things, but I guess not yet.

[elevelvetor]

[ minato no /sends in a mem regain ]

i see. i'm sorry i couldn't be of much help at the moment... though,
i wonder if it has anything to do with those subjugation requests that the other Elizabeth has mentioned before?

[compendiem]

Subjugation is a good word for it. What do you know about them?
The Attendant paid her Guest 5 million yen for the button. I thought maybe she had a hit list.

[elevelvetor]

a better question is where is she getting all of this money if she only leaves the Velvet Room when she requests her guest's escorting.
however, to answer *your* question...
not very much, except that on an outing to the mall, she saw the wanted posters at the police station and asked they were his version of her requests
... he said they pretty much were, and she asked that if they were similar enough, then did they require a body part as proof?
her guest had quite an interesting sense of humor, but she seemed to enjoy herself well-enough

[compendiem]

I assumed she just had a stash of coins hidden under the table or something. ...Maybe that's something I should have questioned.
But that's interesting. Monsters as wanted criminals, and after killing them, returning with physical proof. It's a good system. I don't think it was a joke.

[elevelvetor]

i suppose i just wonder why she needed any of that in the first place

[ what does she do with any of that.

anyway, she'll spend a few more minutes studying the button before...... oh, there it is ]

the reaper, correct?
the button's original owner, that is.

[compendiem]

Yeah, the Reaper. Scary thing- it hunted the Guest down, is one of the memories I had. I guess a fight to the death was inevitable in the end.

[elevelvetor]

i suppose
do you recall anything about the fight itself? i admit, i'm quite interested to hear how it went
and also if this "reaper" character uses a scythe, dresses like the usual grim reaper, and so on and so forth

[compendiem]

I remember fleeing the Guest fleeing for his life.

[ The memory of actually fighting it will come on his birthday; maybe he'll tell Elizabeth later later if it comes up again. ]

The actual battle might have been a later memory. He'd come to a set a stairs and just stood there on the steps while the Reaper stood below, waving its huge guns around but not shooting. I wonder why.

[elevelvetor]

[ Huh. ]

how queer.
both the guns bit and the simply standing...
perhaps he's terrified of stairs? or perhaps he has a sense of honor

[compendiem]

Or a sense of humor. Maybe he was waiting for the Guest to turn around to shoot him in the back.

[elevelvetor]

then Sir Guest must have walked up the stairs backwards
i almost hope he tripped...
it would make for a hilarious scene

[compendiem]

Maybe that's how the button got bloodied...

[elevelvetor]

perhaps
or perhaps he ripped it off the reaper's bloody and beaten corpse

[ ........................ ]

for the record, you may keep that button.
please wash it off, however
who knows what sorts of things Shadows carry

[compendiem]

That'd be a sight I'd like to see.
The blood doesn't come off. I've got all sorts of bloody things, but it's pretty set in there. ...Biohazard, probably. I'll be more careful not to touch it.

[elevelvetor]

[ gross ]

please do
i'd hate to lose you to some otherworldly disease when i finally feel as if our relationship has truly progressed to that of "friends"

[ she's... teasing, she's thought of them as friends for a bit now ]

[compendiem]

Friends show each other bloody items. If you get cool things, I'd like to see some time too.

[elevelvetor]

google, define "cool things"

[compendiem]

Google search results say: Use your best judgement.

[elevelvetor]

[ HMMMMMMMMMMM

okay, he gets a picture of her Jack Frost doll, because puns are great ]

does this count?
he's quite a "cool" character after all...
temperature-wise. he's very cute in person however

[compendiem]

That does count. I've got the pallet swap version.

[elevelvetor]

truly?
ooh, i would love to see him, if you can manage a selfie or something

[compendiem]

[ Can he manage a selfie... The answer comes ten minutes later, and during that time, Minato apparently had a lot of trouble getting Black Frost to stand nice and still enough to take a picture with him, because Liz does eventually get a picture sent over, but 87% of it is an extreme close up of Frost's face and in the background is something blurry that might be Minato trying to grab his phone back before it gets snapped in half.

Black Frost says hi. ]

[elevelvetor]

[ How cute!! Elizabeth's immediately making it her lockscreen. Hello, Black Frost.

...Hello, memory, at least this is just as brief as the other. ]

Black Frost, the mischief maker
it would seem Miss Attendant asked for the specific creation of this Persona...
that was her, and now my, first time seeing him
how interesting.
