Lovers Full Moon Log

[tvkbosses]

[ ♪♪♪♪♪ ]

[ As expected, when midnight of the full moon hits, a specific Arcana will make it's presence known. The Lovers Arcana will be resting up too high to actually reach though. Instead, there appears to be two significantly large groups each of various level shadows and do they appear to be protecting something? Further inspection will show that in one group, there's a dark shade that appears to be man-like in appearance and in the opposite group? A shade that appears to be woman-like in appearance. Sound a bit familiar?

It might not take Persona owners long to figure out the goal: defeat both of these shades at the same time. Doing so will force the Lovers to retreat and victory will be achieved. Each shade is protected by a variety of shadows in the second block. ]

NOTES;
♥ Killing one shade (man or woman) without killing the other will result in the other one resurrecting it.
♥ Groups can consist of 3~6 characters.
♥ Characters are still under the effects of the event until the the Dark Hour is over with.
♥ Please tag this entry with your character when you have tagged in please.

♥ QUESTIONS/CONCERNS;

[tvkbosses]

Please post all OOC questions and concerns under this thread please.

[myblimpisbigger]

Moving this question from plurk to here so people can see the answer if it's relevant to them (?).

Is the passing out rule still in effect?

♥ PRE-FIGHT INTERACTION;

[tvkbosses]

[chroimilis]

[ A battle-ready woman like Grainne already has an inkling of where she needs to be whenever the Dark Hour rolls around. With a giant axe resting lazily in her hand, she stands there with no armor to protect her save for a pink dress.

Because that's how she rolls.

Regardless, she's looking around for familiar faces really. Seeing as this is her arcana, she's not too eager to go for blood. No, instead she's eager to find the husband she's yet to see during her entire stay here. ]

[soulsborderline]

[Well, it's that time of the month again.]

This Shadow...attacking now, acting like it owns the place.

[Someone's upset about constantly stymied and confused bad romance all month.]

I'm going to murder it.

And find Ryuunosuke later.

[macebronia]

[Rider really wishes he had a ride to dramatically ride into the Dark Hour, but seeing everyone come to arms gets his battle spirit fired up!]

So, this place is a battlefield after all....

[inconversable]

[Hi guys guess who's supposed to not be here. After so many months doing nothing during the Dark Hour, Hakuno's been feeling useless. She knows that the situation hits a little too close to home, but...

She didn't want to be useless to Saber. What if Saber leaves her behind because she can't do anything? Hakuno doesn't want that... That's why... Tonight, she'll prove her worth to Saber by finally summoning her Persona!]

♥ FIGHT AGAINST THE MALE SHADE;

[tvkbosses]

Re: ♥ FIGHT AGAINST THE MALE SHADE;

[theheirofbreath]

[Well, here's a dumb kid with hammers, kind of depressed and frustrated and likely about to get himself killed. He's heading for the male shade like he means business. Anyone wanna lend a hand?]

[gaveupfeeling]

[Ledah looks very serious as he attacks the Shadows with fire and stabs a few others with his lance. It's hard to tell if he just always looks serious, or if this whole event is just too troublesome.]

open to anyone

[doudemoe]

[Seeing there were already people attacking both Shades, Minato feels more inclined to focus on the guardians and keep the area clear. Although he does have Orpheus cast a Tarunda on the male Shade for good measure.]

Epic trainwreck in progress.

[king_of_heroes]

[ Guess who decided to show up to the party? Gilgamesh is wasting no time, cutting through the mass of shadows to get right to the main target. Of course, Pazuzu will be helping to keep the minor shadows away while everyone else focuses on the Male Shade. ]

[crouching_sin]

[Naoya stares up at the male shade and its guardians. Hmph. He's not really up to getting in the thick of the fighting, so he summons Tao Tie again and again, sending Zan spells into the enemy Shadows.]

[caliberill]

[Nate's here!

Just-- shooting from afar, since he forgot the date as always. No persona, just guns because it's him. He's doing pretty well, to be honest! Just... not catching that shadow creeping up behind him.]

Ahem.

[fourteenthscion]

[Look.

He's just shooting at it from a distance. Because. You know. Better be safe than sorry, amirite?]

[babel_hacker]

[With plenty of experiences under his belt, Atsuro know what to do. Summon his Persona, cast Tarukaja on himself and other people around him, and attack the Shadows.

He's keeping his distance, letting his Persona do most of the work, but Atsuro do find himself attacking some Shadows personally. Help out?]

♥ FIGHT AGAINST THE FEMALE SHADE;

[tvkbosses]

Re: ♥ FIGHT AGAINST THE FEMALE SHADE;

[crownedexorcist]

[So there's Allen. Summoning his Persona to attack this female shade. Support him?]

Edgeworth, Issei, Diarmuid, and Allen R.

[truthsnomiracle]

[One of the faces on this battlefield is new to it, yet seems to have no qualms taking charge. Just above him and slightly to the left floats a giant slightly-anthropomorphized manta ray, blue on top and white beneath. A black trenchcoat obscures much of what he's wearing, though one can tell at a glance that he has dark grey knee pads and is still wearing a cravat, albeit a burgundy one.]

The fewer guardians the shade has, the more easily those directly attacking it can concentrate on that task. I believe us capable of thinning the numbers of one particular species efficiently, given our capabilities. [Edgeworth points at some shadows resembling women sitting on floating upside-down pyramids -- Primitive Idols.] Electricity will be effective on those.

(Their superficially human appearance is rather unnerving. I hope that I'm not forced to defend myself directly from them.)

Red Saber, all alone (?)

[lyres]

[Too much time out of battle doesn't mean Saber isn't ready to wreck some Shade ass. And by the way she's cutting and burning her way through, she's still on shape. Which is good because the enemy is no small fry anyway.]

Let me show you what love really looks like!

OTA

[assaultedramen]

[Miki's been full of pent up since she hasn't been able to fight shadows normally, so she is tearing through a group of shadows on her way to the shade. Against advice she has gone out alone, but if these things are causing her to feel up and down like this, she wants them gone gone gone.]

ARES! RAKUNDA!

[With the shadow in front of her weakened, Miki flies towards the unsuspecting Change Relic.]

♥ POST-FIGHT;

[tvkbosses]

[technologic]

[Welp, the fight is over and April has decided to take a seat on the nearby sidewalk, having apparently worn herself out from using a few too many spells.

She'll be up soon, she's just... taking a break. Even though it looks like she's about to take a nap.]

[doudemoe]

[The battle is over, everything's sane now. And Minato...

Minato is tired.]

♥ HAND-WAVED INTERACTIONS;

[tvkbosses]

A section for those who want to coordinate hand-waved interactions for this log. All replies under this should be OOC and are only for people who have no intent of fighting things out, but wish to claim participation.

[lunch_ticket_millionaire]

It's been a rough week at work, but I do want to be in this, so I'm going to list some things Sakurako will be contributing to this fight here:

-Fighting Shadows near Minato while loudly saying mildly snarky things about him, but not to his face
-Spending entirely too much time casting Garu at Change Relics before she realizes they're wind-immune and starts wiping the floor with Calm Pesces instead
-Helping out anyone she knows that's got a physical Persona and is fighting Calm Pesces after she makes the above realization (Miki, Madoka, lookin' at you two)
-Casting Tarukaja on anyone and everyone she knows to help their attack power out a bit
