MINAKO ARISATO
persona 3

GENKI SILENT PROTAG. She'll probably strong-arm you into doing something ridiculous, and do so with the cutest smile on earth. She might also poke you with a naginata if you're a punk.

AKIRA KURUSU
persona 5

THE SASSY PROTAG. a phantom thief with a heart of gold. lives rebelliously and without regrets, though spends most of his time feigning a very unassuming persona. #nailedit

STAHN AILERON
tales of destiny

A true sunshine protagonist. Country bumpkin, slow on the uptake. Wants to be everyone's friend. Swordian Master of fire, incredibly hot-blooded. A GOOD BEAN. Please love him. He's my favorite and I am biased.

HAROLD BERSELIUS
tales of destiny 2

The original fabulous Tales science lady. Probably wants to dissect you pretty shamelessly. Loves and adores cute things. Inventor of the Swordians. Definitely the definition of Mad Scientist.

[orphean]

But I'm a little biased! I work there part-time, so I have a pretty strong preference for their coffee. I'm not really some kind of coffee expert of anything, though!

[purrtagonist]

[plus three??? wtf!!]

That's way more charm than the Frui-Tea at the Shibuya diner gives me. . .

[nts: go to Chagall's sometime. why doesn't Boss's coffee give him charm, too??]

Ah, well. A little bias isn't so bad. Truthfully, that's probably what it is for me, too.

[though unlike her, he doesn't elaborate]

[orphean]

Chagall's coffee is really something special then, right?
So you'll have to come back to try it for yourself sometime!
And then I guess you'll be able to compare it your biased coffee preference.
c:

[she doesn't care about elaborating on that one, since it's not like it's a secret. he could have easily met her by walking in to chagall that way, anyway.]

[purrtagonist]

[this is it, this is how he meets her again, he gets lost on his way to Chagall's and has to call her for directions like the lost puppy she said he was]

With that sort of advertisement, I'm not sure how I could at least give it a try.

Not bad, Minako-san. May your bosses be proud.

[of her ability to drag in new customers by advertising the coffee's charming properties]

[orphean]

Please put in a good word for me and tell my manager that, Akira-san!
You know, the next time you're in Iwatodai!

[isn't she just proving how well it works by being charming enough to sell this via text?]

[purrtagonist]

[yes, exactly]

Are you going to use my good word to secure yourself a raise?

[orphean]

Probably not.

[she makes most of her money via tartarus, anyway.]

But I might get a free cup of coffee out of it so I can be a little more charming, too!

[purrtagonist]

[honestly that's legit, Shadows pay better when you mug them]

That's waaaaay better than a raise, anyway.

[orphean]

[that is definitely not how minako makes money, okay.]

Right? I gotta strive for the best!
(๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧

[purrtagonist]

[it's how she SHOULD make money]

[also wtf, that's cute. he snorts aloud, which probably earns him a strange look from Ryuji, which he waves off with a quick flick of his wrist. HE IS MAKING A NEW FRIEND THROUGH A CHANCE ENCOUNTER LET HIM BE]

Striving for the best usually takes a latte work. I believe in you, though.

[is. is that a typo]

[orphean]

[that's not a typo and she knows it.

she can't resist playing along, either.]

But the rewards are the real perks of the job! It'll be grounds for celebration, right?!

[two puns in one text.]

[purrtagonist]

[oh my god]

[she is extremely good]

[but his reply doesn't come for a good five minutes. and when it does? it's just a single word]

. . . espresso. . .

[he's trying to think of a way to work "espresso" into this conversation, GIVE HIM A MOMENT]

1/2

[orphean]

Akira-san...

[she's laughing, honestly.]

[orphean]

Are you having a hard time espressoing your feelings on my puns?

1/2

[purrtagonist]

[. . . FUCK]

[purrtagonist]

[he can't keep up. . . she's dangerous. . . so dangerous. . .]

Maybe a little. I think my ego is officially brewsed.

[he attempts a comeback anyway]

[orphean]

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

We've all bean there before. Stay strong, Akira-san!

[purrtagonist]

I've gotta, or else I might find myself getting despressoed.

[. . .]

Ah. . . that one doesn't really work, does it?

[orphean]

Not really, but I think even my coffee pun game might be getting a little weak now, too.

[minako, that was still one. that still counts.]

[purrtagonist]

[heh]

Seems like you're still running on all cylinders to me. I guess I'll just have to up my game for next time.

["next time. . ."]

[orphean]

No procaffeinating on that! I expect a full range of puns next time you're in Iwatodai!

[purrtagonist]

Will I be graded on my performance?

[orphean]

How confident are you that you'll get an A?

[purrtagonist]

102.5% confident.

[orphean]

Then I guess you'll be graded on it!
