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.]

That might work.
[But he really doubts it.
Either you experience it, or you don't. He's experienced it so many times, for so long--
...Well, no reason to not.]
If that still doesn't work, I guess you could come to Iwatodai and I could show you myself... [Somehow.
(No, that won't work, Minato, you'll be dead.)]
no subject
[put her on a crowded train for longer than twenty minutes and she'll join you in being dead.]
no subject
... Just if your other plans don't work out. May as well go to the source, right?
[You can do it, Futaba!!
Not the dead thing, don't do that.]
no subject
[... also, looking at him.]
By the way, what's a "social link"?
no subject
Why are you like this, Futaba... Minato's not as good at being dodgy and sneaky as Akira is.
On the other hand, he's not bad at being stupidly sincere in the wrong way.]
Someone who helped me out a lot with my Personas called my bonds with my friends that, once. I guess it stuck.
[It's TECHNICALLY TRUE, OKAY... just not getting into the nitty gritty of what they actually are.]
no subject
[see, she gets it like that.]
no subject
When I get the chance, yeah. [He plays boring dead mmorpgs BUT PRESUMABLY OTHER GAMES TOO.] I like to play on the weekends when I have time.
You too?
no subject
no subject
[Maybe then Futaba will think he is less likely to stab someone or something.]
no subject
[what's being humble. sounds boring.]
no subject
Well, even if I lose, at least I can learn something from a master.
[Alright, might be laying it on a bit thick there, Minato.
(He's amused, though, Futaba is an amusing person.)]
no subject
[> You hear chains rattling in the distance.]
no subject
Hm... Well, if he doesn't mind, maybe we can play. [By which he means he can lose because he knows he will. Futaba seems terrifying.]
no subject
Akira, we're going upstairs now!
[she doesn't ask, she just says they're going.]
no subject
Ah... alright, I guess I'll brace myself.
[For video game asswhooping. At least he'll be a gracious loser, but for now he's just glad to see her looking more energetic and less nervous.]
I'll do my best to give you a challenge.
no subject
[She's going to remember how badly they got distracted from the original point soon, but until then, it's time to kick Minato's ass.]
no subject
Doesn't it get boring, always beating everyone that easily?
[Hmm...]
I'll have to do my best.
[He's gonna get an ass whoopin']
