And so Brad has a new Persona. In all honesty, he might want to join a Martial Arts club or something. And if Twilight wasn't suspicious before, she bucking is now!
And Jack Frost enters the picture!
I just hope Applejack ain't gonna be a victim of these shadows while she is away.
This is a good story and all, by why tag "Sex" when there hasn't been any? Please tell me there won't be any scenes...
Ah, yes. It wouldn't be an SMT game without Jack Frost. Thank goodness for plot-mandated power-ups. Or was that because of the Social Link?
Still, Flash is definitely straining his relationship with Twilight. She's going to want answers. I wonder whether she'll think to call in the rest of the dorm to help her confront him...
Looking forward to more. And I love Aphrodite's design.
5164860 Because, as per site regulations, mentions of sex or sexual things must be taged. If it had any sex scenes, it would be mature(and I, in all honesty, would probably not be here).
5164860 *sigh* See the first few comments on the story and also this blog post. TL;DR: the sex "tag" IS NOT A TAG. It's what USED to be next to the story's rating.
5164998 Zef will be pleased to hear you liked Aphrodite's design.
As to Jack Frost's "New Powers As The Plot Demands" appearance, this is how I'm handling new Persona acquisition:
In the games, you obtain new "base" Personas in Shuffle Time after battle. The P4 anime handled it a little differently, with Narukami obtaining new Personas in the middle of battle. I'm doing something similar to that, but here's the "gimmick":
Flash can obtain new Personas in the middle of battle if the situation calls for powers that aren't at his disposal. However, the new Personas are driven by his social links--he'll only obtain the "base" Persona for one of his active social links this way. In this case, since I'm working from a MUCH smaller Compendium than you'd find in an actual game, Jack Frost is the "base" Persona for Magician.
...that makes sense, right?
5165268
It does to me!
5165268 It makes sense, and I too like the design. Still think it kind of funny someone who is the embodiment of Fidelity is welded to a mimicry of Aphrodite, but I understand why you chose her.
Jack Frost has Pulinpa! Please tell me he's gonna abuse the hell out of that!
That's awesome. Thanks for adding that!
Aphrodite's design looks awesome, and I think I like Jack Frost. Hee-ho!
5165268 Oh...sorry...
5165491 It's no problem, it's just I'm getting really tired of that question, because the positioning of the Sex "tag" is not only beyond my control, it's an INCREDIBLY poor choice on the part of the site administrator, but convincing knighty to put it back like it was (when it was next to the story status and rating) is...not happening.
5165512 Makes me wonder why did they remove it?
5165540 knighty somehow got it into his head that "Sex" and "Gore" made more sense as category tags and not content tags. The actual writers on this site can tell you that is not the case, but...
So Flash is now getting more accustomed to fighting these shadows. I'm guessing the numbered ones have no importance for the story
So, Cadence is basically Teddie in her role as supporter. Not bad. Though I'm not sure they accomplished something else other than getting started with "Shadow Extermination Team"
Looking forward to the next day.
5165629 Every Shadow in the Persona games is assigned an Arcana, and they have the Roman numeral for their Arcana on their mask.
Hee ho! The best Persona in the game is here to cool your jets! Or something. Shut up, I'm bad at puns, okay?!
I always thought some Shadows designs were weird. At least Flash agrees with me on the tables.
5166434 Wait untii he runs into a Gigas.
5166451 Oh, that won't end well. At all.
Will most of the personas have personally like Jack Frost. Will we see the famous Jack Brothers comedy rutena
Do Personas match the identity of the people they're 'bonded' (for lack of a better word) to?
5168824 Keep in mind all my knowledge of the series is second hand, and thus may be wrong. As far as I know, a person's "proper" Persona(that is, the only one anyone other than the protagonist can call up) is in some way their "true self", reflecting some fundamental aspect of their soul. The protag is an exception, because he has his "real" Persona and any number of Persona born from the power of his Social Links.
5168855 Not complaining, but you have been Johnny-on-the-spot about replying. My point is though is Jack Frost Twilight's real Persona or is it Flash's Magician Persona?
5168883 This fic updates often enough that I just keep the page open and reload it every hour or two.
As far as I know, Chiron is Flash's "true" Persona, aligned to his "native" Arcana of the Fool.
5168824
5168855 Far be it from me to disagree with such an...ahem...expert on all things Persona, but...
The Persona of each party member is a manifestation of their innermost self, but it's also a manifestation of a specific trait of their personality. It's generally the manifestation of that aspect of the true self which represents the resolve to face and overcome life's hardships.
5168883 Jack Frost is a Persona of the Magician Arcana, and is a common character in the Persona games. If this were an actual game, Jack Frost would simply be one of many Personas available to the player. Much the same is true here, but because narrative mechanics must outweigh gameplay mechanics, then the usual mechanic of "social link=bonus EXP when fusing new Persona" has been superceded by "active social link=this Persona can emerge during a moment of stress".
Jack Frost is NOT Twilight Sparkle's Persona. That isn't how it works. The protagonist is NEVER able to summon the Personas of other characters, because those Personas are reflections of those characters' true self, not his.
Hopefully that cleared up your confusion.
5168975 Dude, that's creepy. Also, you're straining the FiMF server by keeping an always-open connection. If the story is in your Favorites or another bookshelf with tracking enabled and you turn on e-mail updates, you'll receive notifications when this updates (which is once per day).
Persona has been on the top of my "get-to" list for a while.
Still there? Okay, good.
Hold it, Jack Frost doesn't Nullify ice attacks, he absorbs them much like his counterpart Pyro Jack who does the same with fire.
Speaking of, will he be able to use combination skills? Granted the combination skill in P3 (in my opinion) quite bad since it scales. Guess I'll find out in the next few hundred chapters.
Fuck, how much thought did you put into this story?
I re-read this chapter yesterday and now it made me wonder: Where does Cadance go when her Persona is evoked?
I mean, in P3 Fuuka appears inside Lucia's... erm... "womb" and in P4 (from what I've seen in artworks) Rise has a visor held in front of her eyes by Himiko. Was it ever elaborated where does Cadance go when she evokes Aphrodite?
I love the design of Cadence's persona and the analysis at the end is really going the extra mile.
*yawn* Time for bed.
6397532 kinda from what i understand cadence is immobile while using aphrodite and so has to stay outside the school in order to avoid getting thrashed however her persona seems to have a exceptional range with its scan ability.
I love that Cadance is the other one in on all this.
So Cadance is the Navigator. I can totally see her as Mission Control.
So, the big boss of this chapter... was a table...
Am I... missing something? I mean, I’m with Flash on this, a goddamned table gave him that much trouble!? A table!
