her_mouse_jesty / 11 (The Cactus Kid)

[So, Minnie is still in/just getting out of Ilex forest. But on the way, she's picked up a few things... Mickey, her Azumarril, is playing with the Pokegear, which, of course, turns on. Now you get to see Minnie doing some... strange things.

She seems to have gotten a hold of some vines, sticks, and leaves. She ties the vine around her hips, then ties to to a leaf, so that the leaf flops on her rear. She appears to give this some thought, then shakes her head, taking off the leaf, and replacing it with a stick. Again, stops to think... no, simply won't do. Unties the stick, then the vines... then reties the vines, around the hips, and now lets a long string of it hang behind her. Hips give a wiggle... nope, still doesn't satisfy her. She takes off the vines, and sits, with a little sigh.]

It won't do, it won't do at all... Nothing can really replace my tail. You don't know what you'll miss until it's gone.

[Then she looks up, seeing the Pokegear on. Oh well, may as well address the audience.]

Hm... For anyone else out there who weren't humans before coming here, what's the most you miss about being... whatever you were? I'm supposed to be a mouse, and this body is nice and everything... but, sometimes, oh, I so dreadfully miss my tail!

Huh!? Now wait just a minute, that's not true at all!

You don't think so?

Maybe guys like girls at first because they're pretty, but I'm sure Mickey fell in love with you for a lot more than just the way you look, and that's what makes you pretty to him!

... U-um, not that you're not pretty to anyone else, because I always thought you were were pretty in... um, cartoons, but-- what I mean is, your heart's still Minnie Mouse, isn't it? So no matter what you look like, he'll always think you're beautiful!

... That's so beautifully sweet of you to say, Rise. That really does make me feel better about this form.

Don't worry about it! The heart's the most important thing, anyway. ... Now I sound like Ven, don't I?

It truly is. And judging by your heart, you are a beauty equal to a princess.

E-eh? [ why can she handle flirting and compliments from guys just fine and this flusters her dfklfdldfg ] I'm nothing that great!

[giggle giggle~]

You are to me, dear. You're very pure of heart.

Ah-- [ she frowns a little at that. Would someone pure of heart still be terrified of showing the world who she really was, even if she'd already decided to do that? Would they have even had darkness in there to deal with in the first place? Even if she faced that Shadow...

... she finds a small smile a few minutes later, and slowly shakes her head. ]

Thanks, but I'm not so sure. Just here alone, there are plenty of people who are more like that than I am.

[Watching her carefully... there's more to that smile, she can tell.]

And very modest too. I won't be changing my opinion anytime soon.

... I swear, both of you give me way too much credit. [ Rise (unlike most people) knows when it's better to stop being stubborn. She's just not used to dealing with these Disney characters, really. ]

Is that a complaint?

I-- I don't know!!

Perhaps I should stop, before you turn redder than the roosters I know, heehee. I am sorry if I made you uncomfortable.

I-it's not that, it's just-- geez... I haven't heard that one before. And Yukiko-senpai's more the princess type...

I can't imagine why. I like being friends with you.

I like being friends with you too, but "pure of heart" makes me sound a lot better than I am! I mean, I've messed up a lot-- [ YOU'VE SEEN HER COOKING. ]

Being pure doesn't mean being perfect. It means you are full of light, and have a great kindness and compassion within you.

Full of light? Me? [ Now THAT'S Ven. Though if she faced her Shadow and it became her Persona, does that mean her darkness is gone?

... This is too complicated for a Persona girl to think about. ]

U-um... thanks. That sounds more like you, but I appreciate it.

I have light as well, but I also have a darkness. We all do... but for some of us, the light is stronger then the darkness. You and I have a much stronger light.

It sounds like you know some people who aren't like that.

... I wish I could say I didn't, but it is true. I have had to deal with those who have more darkness than light. I can only hope they see what they have become, and try to change.
