a
[Look, he's a Persona protag. So maybe you're having some difficulty with something--anything from looking for something to dropping things to carrying groceries and who knows what else--and after a moment of observing, he has to come over, hands tucked into his pocket and voice quiet, to ask:]
Is there anything I can help with?
[Protags gotta protag, after all; he just wants to be useful, okay!!!]
b
[Alternatively, he also seems to always find himself in these situations and can't seem to say no.... which is a life skill that would probably benefit him to learn but one he will never quite manage. HE...TRIED....
Probably.
But it's almost Easter and that's why he was dragged into helping with an easter egg hunt, wearing a stupid-ass costume complete with bunny ears and looking very puzzled about it (if you can tell beneath the lineface).
He's also, more importantly, kind of struggling to juggle all of the eggs he's supposed to be painting while more are dumped onto him by other overworked volunteers, and with paint on his face and hands and a paintbrush in his mouth as backup while he tries to paint colorful designs on one of the many eggs in his hands, he...
... Probably has bitten off more than he can chew.
Help.]
c
[if you want to see him shoot himself in the head make up a battle prompt or just tell me and i'll come up with one, it'll be Fun.]

[Come up with your own prompt or consider one of these OR WHATEVER MAKES YOU HAPPY.]

a brushes off every single spec of dust
which just so happens to include lugging around a giant cannon barrel - though it's also probably causing a giant racket since even motochika can't quite hold the full thing by himself? it's even longer than his anchor after all.... and that's why it's dragging behind him, probably tearing up whatever poor road there is behind him
and at the offer he turns to minato
sizes him up
and laughs]
Yeah, you wanna split the weight with me, runt?
[it might be a step above groceries]
casually dies over the nostalgia
He's scrawny, sure, but he's gotta give it a try!! For the road!!]
Sure. [IT'S CASUAL CLEARLY.] That should be fine.
[maybe]
death to us both
But yeah we'll find out. Motochika's gesturing for Minato to get behind so that he can pick up the end of the cannon with the smaller diameter.]
Alright! Let's see what ya've got!
[and with a guttural yell (why) he's gonna go ahead and put his knees into it as he lifts the cannon, hopefully enough for minato to get ahold of it????
this is going to go so poorly]
no subject
HE'S GOTTA TRY? What if some poor sap takes this road and trips in the holes they've left and breaks his ankle? That would be terrible.
So he grabs the end of the cannon, bends his knees to try to lift with his thighs and not his back (safety first, kids) and then.
Heaves.
And actually he manages to lift it, but it's with a grimace and and faint wheeze. AUGH. IT'S HEAVY.]
no subject
either way he's whistling low when he does feel some of the weight on his end easing up and ends up barking out a laugh]
Ha!! Not bad, kid! Alright - to the beach!
[which is probably still like a 10 minute walk from here
why
why did you sign up for this, minato]
I'll treat ya to some ramen after this!
no subject
To...the beach!!!
(He's really gotta try not to cry here, this is stupidly heavy.)]
no subject
but Motochika's still cackling rather happily, might even be whistling some off tune to himself in between some science mutterings.... who knows what he's ever really up to? but then they're headed toward the beach and he'll spare Minato, choosing to send just send it flying into the sand for now
then putting his hands on his hips
turning to Minato and offering a grin]
Not bad, kid.
Look at it this way - I'm sure you probably impressed a coupla girls on the way over.
no subject
[Minato's busy flexing his fingers to try to get feeling back into them, but at that, he has to look back at Motochika, eyebrows arched a little.]
I doubt I looked very impressive next to you.
[HE KNOWS WHO WAS CARRYING MOST OF THAT CANNON AND IT WAS NOT HIM]
no subject
he gives that some thought and]
I guess that's what ya get for wearin' a shirt.
[no that's not
no]
no subject
no]
I like wearing shirts.
[They can't all have Motochika's abs and lack of care for things like decorum.]
Besides, Aniki, it's not like I'm trying to impress girls right now.
no subject
he's claimed this little patch for himself apparently....]
Nah?
Guys?
Whatever ya like, I guess... Never have been able to tell with you....
[vaguely concerned big bro mumbling]
Someone else had to have given 'im the talk right.
no subject
Or guys.
[Though either would probably work, Minato's got shit to do!!
He's got a life to live now that he's not dead and all, it's very distracting from things like romance. also might've been scarred by love triangles.]
I'm just not interested right now, that's all.
