(open) June catch all
Who: Naoto Shirogane and ???
Where: Various around Aldrip and the nearby meadows/woods
What: Things Naoto is doing this month AKA, training, moping, investigating
Warnings: Content warnings should be here. If there's explicit content in your log, it should be locked.
Call the tiny detective
[It was rare to see Naoto not clean and dressed smartly. But early on that morning she could be found furiously scrubbing a damp brush against all. Wearing her normal black trousers and a white shirt that now had splotches of paint on it.
It was also rare to hear her curse in any way... Granted, growling 'damnnit' was very minor. But this was Naoto after all.
And she wasn't very happy to leave her apartment this morning and find a crudely painted stick figure in a cap and the words 'TINY DETECTIVE! FOR A LOWER PERSPECTIVE!' next to it.
She was going to keep grumbling as the paint barely came off.]
Must raise that Endurance stat
[On other mornings, Naoto was also undressed compared to normal. Though probably overdressed for the weather. Given she was wearing a full tracksuit. Because she was making an attempt. Her lack of physical prowess had been what had let her down in the tower. She'd just not had the stamina.
That was part of the reason she'd chosen to try this in the early hours. Because how many people would go to the club building at 6am? She'd noticed the gym during her brief visits.
Except... She didn't really know how to start. Her favorite sport was billards! She wasn't built for this.
Just going to do some stretches? Maybe some jogging around the outside of the court lines? Failing at situps? Oh, she just fell on her face...]
Hunting on the outskirts
[With the festival on the horizon, and a part of it taking place near the farmlands. There had been a few jobs to go and make sure there weren't any monsters, there shouldn't be any too close. But just to be safe, so there weren't any accidents.
That worked for Naoto. While she could practise her shooting at the small range, after months of fighting shadows it didn't help much. Was it the best idea? Coming out alone like this? Probably not, but she didn't want to bother her senpai. Didn't want to worry them, clearly it was best not to mention it.
Besides, she had to stand on her own two feet. Even if she was trying to get better at working as a part of a team, wasn't it best if she could be independent as well?
She could be found trying to track monsters, or maybe after
The raptors had been bold. Making their nest in an old, abandoned toolshed. Though they'd not laid any eggs yet. It was best to scare them off before that happened and they got territorial about the area. That had been the idea at least.]
Persona-!
[Buuut, they'd decided Naoto and a loud bang wasn't particularly intimidating and had started spitting fireballs at her. Summoning Yamato Sumeragi to just stand in front of her and.... He wasn't affected by the flames at all.
She huffed, frowning at the two birds. What to do? She didn't want to kill them, but if they really wanted this spot...]

Naoto frowned at the question, looking back to the graffiti. Briefly opening her mouth. Closing it, thinking.]
Not that I know of... [She wasn't aware of anyone she'd upset who'd do this. But she'd also been told that she was oblivious to people's feelings.]

Sometimes that's a pretty easy thing to do, Ange has found. It's like the people here go from worshipping them to despising them every few months or so. ]
Well, have you been interacting with the locals at all? Any interactions that stand out to you?
[ Surely you'd remember it if you offended anyone, Naoto. Right? Right? ]
no subject
I speak to them occasionally, but I don't think I've offended any... [Another moment.] Though I can think of some chosen I've upset.
[Mainly one.]
no subject
That's way more interesting to Ange than the idea of some random local doing this, considering those already seem to get annoyed by them out of the blue every so often.. ]
Can I ask who would fall into that category?
[ .. well, technically she's already asking it in the same breath as asking for permission.. But maybe that's just the usual Ange directness. Nothing new here. ]
Do you imagine any of them are petty enough to do this? [ She gestures at the text Naoto has been trying to remove from the wall.
Ange can sure think of some people here who are petty enough, that's for sure. ]
