final trial

[After a harrowing couple of hours, some illuminating discoveries, a couple of new allies, and a couple of new injuries, eventually Garfield's warning comes to mind. Shit's popping off. And now that you've got all of the ritual components (minus the hammer which, well, you have its owner), it might be time to return to the trial room and see if you can do something about it.

Reconvene in the Great Hall and make your way upstairs.]

[Having seen that, Katsuya steps back, making sure to keep his Persona as high in the air as he can to avoid Death looking at him. Enough attacking for a bit, he has to make a bit of a call. Taking out the compact, Katsuya tries to get in contact with him]

Garfield? No time for talking. Do us all a favor and gather as much holy water as you can -- I know you have access to some. Just gather as much of that as you can and be ready to splash it over something way too big for this world. I have to hang now, Death itself is attacking.

[Have to wait for the right time, have to have good timing. Having made that call, Katsuya hangs, hoping that was enough forewarning]

Geez, Katsuya, not even a "love you, talk to you soon"?

[Who is he even bitching to while his compact is dark? It's Zephyrus, who sits perched on Argos's back looking less than interested in the middle of the animal-packed Fantasy Costco.]

[grumble grumble has to unpack all his holy water, they are so lucky he likes them and doesn't want to see any more of them die grumble grumble

(The rats are a splendid help in this very quick endeavor, Viktor less so because he keeps trying to drink the holy water.)]

[The good news of all this is that Garfield is an old pro at popping into final battles to lend a hand: there's a reason he gifted Katsuya a quick and easy way to contact him.

With the help of the animals and Chance the Unseen Servant it takes him less than a minute to get together what he needs (with a bonus) and cast a fresh Dimension Door spell into the tower...]

Garfield-san!

[Mei beams, stepping back from melee range, and waves.]

That looks like it'll work! Just avoid that spot!

[She gestures to where Jasper's ghost is probably standing. Probably be good to avoid friendly fire on the local demon, even if he is the guy nobody likes.]

I have no idea what you're pointing to but noted! [He tosses her one of the squirt guns- it's lighter than it looks thankfully.] Use it in good faith, Mei Day!

Get it? Because it's holy water-

[You know what, hey, he can't complain]

Thank you so much. You're brilliant.

[Felines tend to get more compliments from Katsuya than people do and Garfield is no exception, hah]
mercantilewits: And we'll see what sticks. (Throw your wisdom spaghetti)

[personal profile] mercantilewits 2022-05-16 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
If cats could blush, Katsuya. [He passes him one of the guns.] These things are packed to the brim with all the holy water I had in stock. They should be good to do a good amount of chipping damage to that bony bastard.

[Consider them free samples.]

[GOOD TO SEE YOU, BUDDY]

Thank you for coming to help us.

[He kind of had a feeling you would, but.]
