I see. [ Still, there's no doubt that... well, no, there's always the other Elizabeth's sister, she supposes? Except their hair length is vastly different, not to mention their style of clothing... Well, there's no doubt that Lillian's part of their little group somehow.
...That's something she'll have to let Minako know before the next meeting, or simply bring Lillian herself... Whenever that might be. ] How fortunate in its own way, I suppose... that you should find yourself a member of the largest cabal in the city.
[ A beat. ]
Just kidding. There are quite a few of us that have memories of the same world, however, and if you're familiar with a girl who looks like me in your memories, then there's no doubt that you're just the same. [ At least she isn't her guest, just an incidental other Persona user... probably. ] After all, such an otherworldly appearance surely can't be mistaken for anything else.
[Lillian hadn't given the memories she had received too much thought, honestly. And now she was seeing one with someone she knew, who clearly knew more about what was going on then her.]
So...you're sayin' our memories are from the same place? And there's a buncha other people also rememberin' the same place? How many? Who are they?
Yes, more or less, something like a dozen I believe, and... [ She pauses, lips pursed.
...The one thing she does hold to is not revealing the names of other users, allowing them to do so instead, so she merely shakes her head. ] You'll meet them in time. My apologies for the vagueness, Lillian. I can say I only feel comfortable revealing myself to be one, not the others... We have meet-ups every so often, however, and I'll be certain to extend the invitation to you when the next one arises.
[Lillian coughed for a good fifteen seconds before it stopped, and she paused, eyes slightly distant, as if measuring the pause before she lowered her hand.]
They simply are. Rather, in their previous life—or existence, or down to their very core, their soul—they were, and thus they regained it here after a time. I have a similar set of circumstances regarding my ability to summon, as does anyone and everyone who can do so, or has other incredible powers and such.
...I do feel as though it'd come with its own set of troubles. For example, gods are supposed to listen to prayers, aren't they? They must be incredibly busy as a result.
[ Hmm... ]
I like having free time, so it wouldn't be ideal in the slightest... [ ...oh, but— Lillian, were you on your way home or something..? Please allow me to escort you.
[ A worried pause, because she... probably should go rest, or something. ]
Plus I'm kinda a control freak and nobody needs me bein' in charge of everything. [A beat.] Even if I would do a great job.
[She knows her limits. Mostly. Kind of.]
What? Oh, I was actually gonna go check out that subway people were talkin' about. 'Course, I wasn't figurin' I'd end up falling on my butt before I even got there.
[Lillian pursed her lips into a frown, staring at the other woman for several seconds before she rolled her eyes and let out the breath she was holding.]
Fine, fine, you can come. But you ain't babysittin' me, got it? We're partners. I don't need a keeper.
[She started to walk in the direction she had originally been going after she said this.]

I know it was huge at least.

[Lillian processed that, not going to push on the names thing. She hadn't really thought about the memories much, they'd seemed so silly, but...]
Do all them have these...persona things you do? Does that mean I'm gonna get one?
no subject
[ And hopefully it will not be, say, a giant bull. ]
I'm looking forward to seeing what sort of companion you'll be able to summon... I'm certain they'll be quite kind, if they're anything like you.
no subject
Man. That'd be a trip though, right? Gettin' some kinda weird monster pal.
[She finally started to stand up, bringing up a hand to cover her mouth as a few coughs decided to make their appearance.]
I kinda figured I was never gonna get anything like that.
no subject
To be fair, a lot of people don't. Some simply become god. [ Yato... Her Bud. ] I think we're quite fortunate to get a friend like that.
no subject
Sorry.
[And then a beat.]
Wait did you say a god?
no subject
Yes, but that's not really important right now. [ Not really. ] Are you alright?
no subject
[A shrug.]
So how's somebody a god?
no subject
They simply are. Rather, in their previous life—or existence, or down to their very core, their soul—they were, and thus they regained it here after a time. I have a similar set of circumstances regarding my ability to summon, as does anyone and everyone who can do so, or has other incredible powers and such.
no subject
Can't say I really get that, but if you say so I guess it's probably true huh? [She smiled faintly.]
Not really sure what I think a all these powers though. But they seem cool! Don't think I'd wanna be a god though.

[She laughed softly.]
no subject
...Well, as long as I'm with you and you don't strain yourself too much, then I suppose we can take a little trip. [ c: ]
no subject
Ya sure? i mean, I don't wanna be a bother or nothin', I was just gonna go poke around there by myself. I'm sure I'll be fine!
no subject
[ ...She's gentle, but firm, and not really afraid to just say it right out. ]
no subject
You don't gotta do that, Liz, really. I ain't gonna drop dead yet, okay? It's just coughin', I'm used to it, I do it all the time.
no subject
Still, though. ]
Pretty please?
