[The network opens to a shot of a light brown pegasus stretched out on the grass. It rolls this way and that, basking in the warmth of the sun, before its head rolls towards the scroll. The girl smiles a little before speaking.]

Hi!

I have to admit, it was a surprise to end up here from home! I thought it might have been a domain, at first, but. Well. I suppose being on a different world is fine as well! And at such an exciting time too! Aside from the Hunter's Tournament, Tokyo didn't have anything left like the Games here! I'm sure they'll be interesting. Is it always so exciting here?

And...

[She turns once more onto her back, looking up into the sky.]

It really is beautiful here, to see the sky for the first time.

How assertive! I'm sure you must have learned your lesson by now then!

[A smile.]

I'm Hikaru! It's nice to meet you Teddie! Have you been here long?

I've been here for...

[His eyes travel up as he thinks it over, counting on the digits on his paws.]

...Three? Maybe four months. I'm not so good at telling without a calendar. But that still makes me your senior, so if you need any help, I'm your bear!

I will. You seem like such a nice bear.

And such an interesting one too.

[~~Usable, manipulable maybe? She'll have to see.~~]

It's true, I am.

[King modesty over here.]

We should totally hang out sometime, we can watch the sky together!

[Modesty is overrated. ~~A virtue espoused only by the weak, frightened of themselves.~~]

I'd like that! I'm sure we could do other things too.

You know this place so well, I'm sure there's a lot you could show me. I'll just stick by you for a little while, if that's okay.

Y-You really wanna hang out with me?

[On her own? He didn't even have to convenience her? She didn't even call him annoying yet, this is fantastic.]

I mean, of course you do! We can do all kinds of stuff, it'll be just like a Teddie tour! Maybe you can meet Sensei and all my other friends, too, and we can pal around in a giant group.

Of course!

[~~You could prove useful. You already are, by showing her whatever other Persona users are present, Lucifer guesses. What other friends would the friendly Shadow have~~.]

Your friends? I'd love to meet them! There aren't really that many teenagers I could talk with back in Tokyo. I've never really had friends before.

WHAT?!

[His paws smash into his cheeks at the absolute horror of this new bit of information.]

N-No friends?! Really? At all? W-We gotta fix this, I won't stand for it!

[A few giggles at that.

~~What a naive creature. Nyarlathotep would be aghast to see how human the Shadows could become. The thought brought Lucifer great pleasure~~]

Well, it's not all true. I had a few friends back home, but I only just met them. They were very much like you!

I hope the rest of your friends are as interesting as you are.

Oh, phew, that's a relief! It's no fun being all alone. Still, you're gonna need friends here, too, at least until your other friends show up.

[Because as far as Teddie's experienced, friends pop up all the time. Why wouldn't it be the same for anyone else?]

And my friends are great, just you wait! Sensei's amazing.

It's always better to not be alone.

[~~But only so long as she's this weak. There will come a time where she, thankfully, will no longer require the aid of others. But for now, it's a necessity.~~]

I'm sure they will, but I'd love to meet your friends! Your Sensei sounds incredible already!

[~~She hopes the Samurai proper are kept from this equation, at least for now. She has no time to deal with them, especially if they're pulled from a time where they know who she is.~~]

I couldn't agree more!

[Just the idea of showing off his friends excites him.]

I'll have to set up a meet-n-greet and then we can spend the whole day playing in the Empire. Or maybe I should just call Sensei or Yuki-chan and have them do it for me... That's a lotta work...

[Bears are lazy.]

[She giggles a little bit more at that. Aren't you a silly bear ~~and perhaps not as useful as she suspected, if that's your attitude towards work. At least you can give her access to the other Persona users, but we'll see how far your usefulness goes.~~]

You must have a lot on your plate to be so busy for a bear! You must be the big thinker in your group of friends!

Nope, I'm dumb.

[He says that with a hint of pride. ...because that's something to be proud of.]

But that's okay, 'cause I'm still learning! It's Sensei who has all the brains. ...Oh! And Nao-chan too, but she's not here. I do get pretty busy around here, though. I am NOT looking forward to going back to the candy shop, I was put on...cleaning duty. Dun dun dunnn!

[He even shivers.]

It's good to be honest. The worst thing someone can do is be someone they're not.

[A smile at that last statement. My, but you are amusing Teddie.]

They're trying to keep you busy, huh? You know though...is there any reason why you'd have to go back to the candy shop?

[Haha, why would anyone be something they're not? That's like creating multiple bodies for yourself- oh wait.]

Of course there is! Why would I work if I didn't have to?! That's crazy talk!

Kyo-chan gave me that job! It's work, but I also get to hang out with her at the same time. It means everything to me.

[~~....Ah. A different relationship, one separate from the Persona users. That could be useful. And perhaps, then, even more vulnerable if the need be.~~]

She sounds very special to you!

Is she your giiiirlfriiiend?

[Her tone is childish, playful. ~~Reveal more. Show her more of what you feel about this person.~~]

GAH!! NO SHE'S NOT, DON'T SAY THAT!!!

[Normally Teddie would have no problem claiming he had girlfriends, in fact he'd be all over that. However, he just got Kyouko to say they were friends, he's been trying so hard to keep his flirty tendencies down so he doesn't scare her off.]

[~~Important. Very important. She'll keep that in mind.~~

A bit of a giggle, but she smiles a little regretfully at Teddie.]

I was just playing!

Still, it's good to have a friend that means that much to you.
