Ominous... [ hm ] He was pleasant enough when I was in the Velvet Room, but you could say he was ominous. Definitely not very forthcoming with information.

[ It seems a little... Souji thinks the odds are slim, to have only three Persona users that fall under the Wild Card. Especially if they've run into each other here. There are coincidences, to be certain, but he and Akira meeting can't be one.

No, especially not when they had met in the dreams, too. What if there were others like them..? Would they see them again here? ]

But that sounds like him to a T.

[ That gets something like a snort out of Akira. "Not very forthcoming with information" is about as accurate as can be. Definitely the same guy. ]

Yeah.

[ It seems like their shared powers could be a reason for them being brought here, but whatever the big picture is, it's probably only a small factor.

He trails his fingers idly over the runes on his bracelet, the motion registering briefly, and that sparks a thought of his own. Akira's movements suddenly have purpose as he pulls out his watch. ]

We should get each other's info so we can exchange notes. [ It goes without saying that he has a lot more questions about Souji's experiences that would be better asked outside of a crowd. ]

[ Eyes following Akira's movements when he has his realization, Souji perks up a little as he catches on, too, reaching to pull out the watch from his back pocket. It's just the right size for it, and lets him immediately wake the thing up from the sleep mode it seems to go into. Not that he understands how these work, but it's just a... magically powered, very limited cellphone.

It'll definitely do the job, with his flip phone turned off. ]

All things considered, probably the best idea. It sounds like we have a lot in common, but even just this much shows there's plenty more to talk about. [ And plenty more that will be different, and that they should talk about in private, because for as much as they're in another world... Souji definitely doesn't want to run the risk of the wrong person hearing more. ]

[ Having played around with the watch before venturing out of the Coven earlier, Akira has a decent sense of how it works. It doesn't take too much effort to figure out how to note someone as a contact, a process repeated on each device.

Once done, he slides his own back into his pocket. ] There we go.

[ Weird. Akira had no plans to reveal that much about his powers—allowing everyone to think he's no more than an unassuming high school student has never let him down before, after all. But having shared that moment with Souji just now, he feels lighter than before, not like he would've expected after exposing such details. A smile pulls at his lips. ]

Well, we can talk about that later. We have a fire to jump through.
