shakenitWell, since no one else has staked a claim to it, I guess I'll be Violet. I'm the new Sumire. You won't catch me putting my hair in that high ponytail any time soon, but I do sometimes braid it.
I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news in the middle of the holiday season, and this probably won't surprise many of you, but: Midnight-san is a hit in the Nav. I don't know her well enough to determine anything other than that.
I'm given to understand there are more urgent matters, and that's perfectly fine - when the time comes, I want to be there for Midnight-san like my friends at home were there for me, but to be able to do that, I need some training with my Persona. I've experienced about half of a proper battle before we had to change tactics, and I don't think we'll be cooking our way out of this one. If anyone would be willing to train with me, I'd greatly appreciate it; I'll try not to slow you down too much.
In the meantime, some advice for talking to Midnight-san until we can get her out of Dr. Maruki's fog: Don't use our names. I can speak from experience that she's likely incapable of hearing them properly - in the thick of it, I was Kasumi, and my dead sister was Sumire, no matter what anyone said to the contrary. She's likely to be applying that filter to everyone else's experiences as well. She did actually recognise me as myself, which could be because I'm not trying to mimic Kasumi's style anymore.
I don't know if I got through to her at all, or if I just made things worse, but from the looks of those notes she left on the board, 'better' is a long way off anyway.
