Eleanor Lamb

Hello you've reached Eleanor Lamb's voicemail. I'd explain what's next but I can't imagine you don't know what to do at the beep.

[Eleanor hissed at the pain, fingers twitching as the line of blood appears on her palm. She felt proud of herself for not yanking her hand away, at least?]

Our lives are awfully strange anymore, aren't they.

[She said with a little grin, before nodding.]

Ready.

[burningblossoms]

Okay.

[Wasting no more time, Yukiko held out her hand and called on her Persona. Not the whole way, not this time, but just asking for a trickle of power. And it came, a warm pulse of greenish light flashed...and when it faded, the cut was gone.]

See?

[notyourutopian]

[Eleanor didn't quite know what to expect, but a glowing light, a kind of...tingle...and then her hand being fine wasn't really it. Part of her thought it should've hurt more? Well.]

[She wiggled her fingers, bringing her hand closer to examine where the cut had been. Huh.]

Well that's...[Don't say impossible.] Impressive.

[burningblossoms]

I thought so too. I...when I call her out, she can do a lot more. I was cut up pretty badly fighting Thanatos. But when we ended the fight, I was just fine. A couple of bruises and mussed up hair.

[That's important.]

Anyway. That's about all I can do so far. Just fire, fire and more fire. And healing. Though fire also doesn't seem to hurt me anymore.

[notyourutopian]

Hey, that's still two more things than I can do. [Eleanor grinned, holding up her hand, and a rock on the ground nearby floated up and darted over to drop into her palm.] Still mostly just for hurling rocks around.

[Still. She couldn't help but be worried here. The things Yukiko was describing, they were dangerous. And not retrospec dangerous, but...other people dangerous.]

...The next time something like that goes down, or even think something like that is going to go down, tell me, alright? Just...[She trailed off.] I've got your back, okay?

[burningblossoms]

[Yukiko definitely smiled, calling up a little ball of fire, rolling it across her palm like it was nothing. It didn't hurt, really. It felt nice even, if she were honest.]

I know you do, Eleanor. That's why I'm telling you all this. That...thing attacked me here, I didn't go looking for it. The dragonfly too. I'm not cruising around looking for trouble. Just mysteries, and lost dogs.

[The club hadn't really had much going on but NPC activity after all.]

Promise, you're in the top 5 people I want with me if there's something really dangerous. Right after the army, the police, the FBI, and the air force.

[notyourutopian]

Hmmm.

[Eleanor seemed to think all this over, very seriously, considering Yukiko's face. Finalyl she sucked in a breath and sat up straighter, letting it out slowly before she spoke.]

I should really be above the air force, I think.

[A slow, somewhat silly grin spread on her face.]

[burningblossoms]

I don't know...they have airplanes with machine guns. But you're higher than the Navy.

[And she doesn't want to put you in danger. That's non-negotiable. The air force at least gets paid for that.]

[notyourutopian]

I am completely better than an airplane with a machine gun. I can throw rocks.

[She tossed her rock to demonstrate. And then she snickers.]

Being better than the navy isn't exactly hard, Yukiko.

[burningblossoms]

You can throw rocks. But...you know you keep making arguements and I might change my mind. The navy does have airplanes with machine guns too.

[She gestures out towards the water.]

And they totally have battleships out there somewhere that could shell the beach. If it's a fight on the beach.

[notyourutopian]

Well if you're going to insist on involving logic in all this...

[Eleanor sighed deeply, as if she were so put upon.]
