[There are a few more messages that cross the line completely into incoherence, before finally:]

[The feed flickers on, and-- yes, that most certainly is England. Or it looks sort of like him for all of two seconds before he doubles over with his head in his hands, blue and red psionic sparks crackling over his body as it shifts -- struggling between something like a tortoise shell and a werewolf, or something vaguely structured similarly to one. Spines ripple beneath his flesh and a few manage to extend outwards, easily tearing through his shirt (or what's left of it -- he's clearly been fighting with his body for quite a while now). His skin tightens over his bones and almost deadens in appearance before England finally reigns the shifting in for a moment.

He's still clutching his head with one hand, though the other has moved to his chest. Bruises show on his neck where it appears someone -- or something -- has tried to strangle him. Along with the bolts of psionic energy, wisps of fox fire occasionally burst into existence in the air around him, usually when he chokes on his own breath. With a strangled noise of pain, books come flying off the shelves behind him, thudding into a surface off-screen.

Finally, he finds it in himself to look into the camera. His eyes flicker with the alternating colours of the Vision Twofold, and at a close look, the multiple pupils of the Vision Eightfold can be found in the left eye whenever it flickers blue. His voice is hoarse when he speaks.]


Urgent assistance. Please.


[ ooc: a list of the competitors in the labyrinth, along with their powers, can be found here. as of now, it's still in-progress, but if your character was in the labyrinth and i have missed them, or the powers listed are inaccurate, please tell me so i can change it! c: also, THERE IS A REAL CHANCE THAT YOUR CHARACTER COULD GET INJURED IF THEY APPROACH ENGLAND. please be careful. ]

[Oh great he doesn't know what the hells is going on, but knows EXACTLY what is happening with his neck and if Jin won't be taking those pills, he's gonna grab the damn thing and just head on over.]

Don't move.

[She's already at the door, biting her lip with worry.]

Let's go.

[And then she turns the corner and bolts for the library, trusting Shinji will follow.]

[He's looking remarkably okay for a guy who was getting strangled by whatever's stuck inside of him. What the hell is going on...

No time to get him water. He takes out whatever remains inside that bottle of pills and hands over three of them close to his face.]


Take these. It'll calm down whatever's trying to strangle you.

[At least he thinks...how did he even end up with Persona?]

[Minako hovers close to Arthur, giving him an encouraging nod.]

You'll be okay, Arthur. We can get more if you need more.

[She has to frown at the psionic energy still emanating off of him, though. That is definitely not of Persona origins...]

[HELP OR JUST STUDY THE HELL OUT OF this is absolutely fascinating HE LOVES THIS TOWER SOMETIMES]

You look as though you could use a hand. As an adept of a magical variety, perhaps I could be of some assistance.

[...Beelzebub, he loves you and he'll let you finish, but Izanagi-no-Okami is the greatest Persona of all time behave yourself.]

Alright. ...I know it seems impossible, but try and stay calm.

[Just a rule in general, though if his hunch is right about the claw marks on his neck... there are Personae rejecting him. England may hear a quiet, deep voice amidst the chaos:

'Thou must calm thyself, lest they continue to run wild.']

Don't worry about me. I'll be there soon.

[He set off at a run, because he couldn't switch forms, his powers weren't reliable.

He finally go to the library.]
Mister Kirkland?

[The pills are dropped into his hands - if England is able to take them, Shinjiro doesn't really notice as he doesn't even think about what he's doing next, and the powers awakened by the aid of others including England manifests again, as a blueish card appears before him.

The few seconds that it takes Thanatos to rush towards her, he has taken the card and sliced it with his hand, all the while himself trying to tackle Minako away before the monster's blade can touch her. The mist transforms into Augustus and it takes on the Death God head on, its lance as a shield, front legs in the air trying to kick it.

The resistances come in handy, but with the new way of calling forth Persona also comes the increased risk that each damage to it causes obvious pain in Shinjiro himself. And he can only do so much compared to someone who seems to have all of their Personas...

How did he get all of...]


TAKE THE PILLS!
