dropkicks him right into the velvet room

[pyrrhicjustice]

[The Velvet Room is now host and occupant to a Goro Akechi who is lying flat on his back. It certainly seems he arrived that way, and he shows no sign of moving yet. His school blazer seems to have been rained on, although in the blue lighting of the Velvet Room it only seems darker than usual.

Maybe once he's been encouraged to move into better lighting, it'll be noticeable that the rain was of a distinctly red nature, but that's for then, and this is now.

Oh, and there's also a blue butterfly flittering nervously at Igor, who seems sad at its presence.

Poke the (not exactly) sleeping Akechi?]

[He takes that in. He almost appears to be calm. Perhaps compared to other reactions, he might be.]

I revise my statement. [He glances at the butterfly.] Are you sure we aren't in Hell? Because I'm sure he just described it.

[He's not sure what part is worse and more befitting of the "title of Hell." So many more of him? At least two different kinds of Joker, no matter his name? Okumura? It's one bad thing after another.]

I thought the phrase was "hell is other people."

[Okay okay he's done joking.]

All that aside, the only other 'people' here are the sort of vague cognitions you'd find wandering Mementos, and they don't care what you do. They just provide basic services, although there's no need to pay for anything.

That said, if you're looking to go home to the same apartment that the rest of us had, you might find it occupied, so you'll probably have to get a new coat somewhere else.

[He's fairly sure at this point that hell isn't just 'other people,' it's a place throwing his idiocy and the consequences of his actions in his face over and over. And if this... other, very strange Akechi doesn't realise that? Maybe the rude gesture will help.]

From what you've said, neither of those things will be much of an issue, though I think I'd prefer to see for myself.

[It's not as though he's incredibly attached to the place. But having to start from nothing in that way too... it's another straw, that's all.]

[He's too old to not be a petty child when he wants to be.

Rude gesture back.]

Tokyo is through that one. [He moves rude gesture hand to indicate the door in question.]
