1.) random scenario, take your pick!

2.) extreme fluff, for all of your marshmallow-y needs.

3.) The arcana are the means by which all is revealed-- or not, so wild card it up or just leave a blank comment with who you want in the subject and I'll work out something.

[It's a shoot! There's nothing that unusual for them--models go to photoshoots, even models with Personas who occasionally have to use them to fight Demons and/or Shadows and save the world. Nothing special there (except everything's special).

Except.

Well.

Elly doesn't look all too pleased with the theme of this photoshoot. Her arms are crossed, brow furrowed a little and foot tapping as she eyes the sudden change in plans--

And truly, usually she'd be able to roll with it, but... going from a "heroines" themed shoot to a "damsel" themed shoot is a huge change, and Elly doesn't fancy herself to be a damsel at all, so while normally she'd be cheerfully bidding her new photoshoot companion a hello... right now, she's mostly just simmering a little, brows drawn together as she eyes the director of the shoot (who seems to be trying very hard to pretend he's not noticing her trying to bore holes into the back of his head).

... Hi Ann.]

[cakemyheart]

[ Hi, Elly!!

... No, to be fair, Ann (who is all about the sultry and the villain and the superhero and not the simpering) isn't too happy about this either. But she's at least trying to smile at her fellow model (while also hoping that this isn't going to end as poorly as her first time meeting Mika had gone). ]

Talk about a total reversal, huh?

[paranorms]

Oh...!

[Whoops! Elly sure was just totally spacing out and ignoring Ann there, wasn't she? (Thankfully, this is not going to turn into a Mika situation).]

Yes, it is a little unexpected... but I suppose we'll just have to make the best of it. Those who go the extra mile, after all...

[Yeah she definitely just lapsed into English for no apparent good reason, roll with it.

She claps her hands together a moment later, smiling brightly.]

Regardless! You must be Ann, is that right?

[cakemyheart]

[ It's fine, it's fine, her English is already ten times better than Ryuji "I am a Japanese" Sakamoto. If anyone's going to be fine with it, Ann's your girl. ]

Yeah, that's me! [ Complete with a little fistpump, no less. ]

And you're... Eriko-san?

[ She's made an effort to be a more serious model, she's paying attention more often these days. ]

[paranorms]

[They'll get along just fine, random English phrases or not.]

Please, Elly is fine.

[She smiles brightly at that, nodding easily; don't worry, Ann, Elly's a pretty relaxed model too.]

It is a pleasure to meet you, truly. I hope we are able to work together well for the duration of this shoot.

[cakemyheart]

I'm sure we will! You don't look as cutthro-- uuuuum, I mean, you seem perfectly nice!

[ Nice save, Ann-- although she sighs a few seconds later and folds her arms over her chest. ]

It's a little weird that they changed the theme so suddenly, though... I was practicing my posing and everything.

[paranorms]

[She laughs at that, cheerful and amused.]

I'm pleased that I don't look particularly cutthroat, yes. [THANKS ANN] It sounds as though you've had some trouble.

[The world of models is hard..........

Either way, she lets that go, propping her hands on her hips.]

Honestly, you're right... I can't say I'm pleased by it either. I don't fancy myself a damsel in any particular way.

[cakemyheart]

[ yeah thanks for letting that go, Ann is still learning how to speak Tactful Modelese... ]

Right?? And honestly, it just sounds boring... I thought models were supposed to inspire people to want to be dynamic or something like that. Damsels?

[paranorms]

You are quite right. This doesn't feel inspiring at all.

[A huff, softly irritated. She keeps her poise, but...there's definite annoyance to her tone.]

I certainly do not wish to give off the wrong impression here... and while I do not wish to skip a job I gave my word for...

[Ugh.]

[cakemyheart]

... Think maybe we could talk them into changing it back? Or start with the theme and then switch it up?

[ ... although she doesn't want to damsel at all. ]

[paranorms]

Oh? If you are with me, I certainly have n o issues with changing the shoot to suit our own purposes. If it is the both of us, I feel they certainly cannot stop us.

[Model anarchy.]

[cakemyheart]

Well! I mean, why not? I bet once they see what we can really do, they'll learn to see it our way in no time!

[ cheerful model anarchy. ]

[paranorms]

Very well then. I shall be expecting you to back me up, Miss Ann.

[Oh.

And then she's stalking right on over to the producers of the shoot to give them a piece of her mind.

HERE WE GO.]

[cakemyheart]

[ WELL. She's not sure how much help Elly is going to need, but she'll certainly follow along and look properly intimidating??

Without a whip. ]

[paranorms]

[Well done, Ann, much appreciated.

And.

Well.

It works, though it means the shoot is postponed, because they don't exactly have the right costumes prepared.

Elly still looks satisfied, though.]

Justice prevails yet again!

[cakemyheart]

... You're kind of like a really pretty wrecking ball.

[ dear god. ]

[paranorms]

Why, thank you!

[Elly... why are you so happy about that.]

I find that most things in life can be changed, should you put forth the effort to do so. Don't you?
