No, I'm super dead and you're talking to my ghost.
[Comes the very petulant reply. Scott's lying on the ground somewhere and while a part of him is surprised to hear from Dazai (and honestly glad to hear from him), he's also just a mix of emotions from the recent events. He helped out, he got his ass kicked, and also sort of hurt one of his friends--]

[Alright, so after asking around and learning that Scott is alive after what happened, she... avoided him. Completely. For a few days. She's very good at not being found when she wants to be, and maybe if she'd locked herself in the sewing club room for hours with the lights off so no one could come in and find her, well. That's her business.
The result is that once most injuries have healed and she's received more than one good scolding, she does finally emerge into the town proper. She has apologies to make, potentially more scoldings to receive, and- explanations to give. That's the worst part. It's not like a Persona is a secret, really, it's just so difficult to explain that she'd simply rather not.
But Scott, at least, she owes a visit. Luckily his glasses are pretty distinctive, so asking for him at the inn leads her to his room in short enough order. Some of the sparkle is missing from her eyes, but she's trying to keep up a brave face as she knocks on the door.]
Scott...? It's me. Kotone. Um... if you don't want to see me, I can go.

[Scott's also been involved in the whole 'avoiding people business,' mostly by going outside and finding some place to sulk while somehow resisting the urge to blow up something with his mutant powers. His mood has somewhat improved since the initial couple of days after the whole mess with the giant ended, but off days and everything. And now? He's... on one of his better days, which is probably good.
He's been meaning to ask how Kotone is doing and if the whole thing with Thanatos is better now, but Scott's been avoiding her as well. He's just not sure how to address any of it. Just walk up to her and ask if she managed to get death under control? Sorry about hurting him-- hurting her? ...Guess he can do that, at some point. Luckily, it seems like he doesn't have to make that first step, as he hears her voice sound through his door.
...
Shit, okay, maybe he isn't ready for this conversation. But he doesn't want her to go either, not wanting whatever this is to remain between them. He considers Kotone a friend and he doesn't have that many here yet.
So, he steadies his breath before making his way to his door, although he doesn't bother to force a smile at her. She looks pretty down as well anyway, a far cry from the girl he danced with not too long ago.]
Hey. You don't have to go. I um. [Scott finds himself exhaling as a rush of words leave him.] I want to see you.

[Obviously Quentin saw Scott's announcement about his fancy new house. And also obviously he took it as the invitation that it clearly was. Mutants always cohabitate. It's how they protect themselves from the big bad world. Why in the world would Summers get a new house all to himself and then announce it if he didn't want Quentin to show up? Absurd.
Lucky for Scott, Quentin can move himself into an empty room, no help needed. Which is exactly what he does! Overnight. Without telling anyone. You know, like a normal, courteous person.
When Scott wakes up, he'll have a new roommate, one who has immediately made himself at home and can easily be found languishing on the couch eating snacks. This is what you wanted, isn't it, Scott???]

[It's a great day in the Summers House. He's mostly moved in and had a pretty good first night. Sure, the house is somewhat empty still, but it's his place and everything! No stupid inn dude giving him the stink eye and he gets to make his own rules, like... waking up whatever he wanted. Not that a rule like that existed at the inn either, but whatever. Shut up, not the point.
So, he steps out into the living room with a slight yawn, ready to make some cereal and-- stops immediately at the doorway, his jaw dropping slightly.]
What the fuck.
[He's not dreaming, right?? Scott finds himself blinking behind his shades, before closing his eyes and taking off said sunglasses to wipe his eyes, and putting them back on. Nope, Quentin fucking Quire is still sitting there like this is a totally natural thing to do.
Honestly, Scott thinks he's handling all this pretty well, considering the circumstance. Like he hasn't shouted at the other teen yet.]
Dude, the party's not until tomorrow.
[That's what's going on, right?? RIGHT?? Scott's little brain is trying to process the scene in front of him.]

[So he and Kotone has made up, but he kind of neglected to mention to her all the people he got mad at. It'll be a conversation for later that will go extremely well!
One thing at a time.]
Hey.
[So now that he's no longer angry and pissy, regret and a moderate amount of shame crops up because fuck. He... treated Yu pretty poorly, huh? Treated one of his friends like shit. Well, worse than that really, because he actually threatened him. Even if he didn't go through with it, he still considered it and that thought makes his stomach turn. Sure, Yu has his powers and Personas, but that doesn't matter.]
It's fine, really.
I'm surprised you even want to talk to me. You don't have to force yourself.
[Also, he's not sure if he's ready for this conversation. Maybe he won't have a choice.]

[It doesn't take a genius to figure out what Mikey is thanking him for. Still, seeing the gratitude on his screen helps to diminish some of the tangled knot that's been in his chest since the whole incident. He couldn't save Yosuke or Deku, but... at least he managed to help Takemichi, someone that is super important to Mikey. It'd be a good feeling on his own, but the fact that it's Mikey really adds to it.
He's not a complete fuck up, shut up Quire.]
Hey, no problem, I'm just glad that Yu and I got to him on time. You two recovering and everything?
[With the whole Takemichi almost dying and Mikey going ballistic. It was some scary shit. He saw a side of his friend that's honestly unnerving, but at least everything worked out?]

[ The video opens to Mitama, though just like in her recent post, she's wearing her "disguise". She's here on an important business, after all. ]
Ho, ho, ho! Thank you for joining our Secret Santa event~ It's time to find out what ─ or rather who ─ your assignment as Santa's Little Helper for this year is! Drumroll, please...
[ She makes a pause for a dramatic effect, her hand slipping into a Santa hat she's holding and pulling out a small piece of paper with a name on it. ]
It's none other than... [ This time, the pause is definitely not planned, and a little "Oh my," escapes her lips as she reads the name on the slip, but she quickly clears her throat and gets back into the act. ] ... Jerry, our guardian angel of justice!
Remember, you should present your assignee with a gift of your choice until December 25th! Good luck, and remember: your main task is to spread joy, happiness and the spirit of Christmas cheer!
Miss Santa Coordinator, out!

Scott-san, can I ask you something?
Are you and Kotone-san dating?
Are you and Kotone-san dating?
[On Christmas Day, Scott will hear a knock at his door. When he opens it, however, no one is there! Curious. Left in place of whoever knocked is a small parcel, wrapped in festive paper and ribbons. Inside of the parcel, Scott will find several printed photographs of Kotone, posed cutely at first and then suggestively, with a final two where she is only in an oversized shirt Scott would recognize as his own and a pair of pink panties. Included is a thumb drive and a note, written in messy handwriting.]
so the object of a secret santa is for me to not tell you who i am giving this to you, so i'm not gonna say, but.
so you don't worry, these come with the disclaimer that she consented to these and we're all friends.
merry christmas, scott, have a physical spank bank and also some cute photos. :)
there's more on the usb stick-- plug it into your tablet but be careful, that's where most of the racier ones are. >:)

[maybe in a different situation, he would've laughed a little, but mikey's definitely in a Mood and scott is worried too. also he just... doesn't feel great.]
i tried talking to him too, didn't really work. [he's still sort of upset about that but-]
give him some space.

can i ask you a favor?
a really big one?

Depends on what it is.
[On one hand, he's feeling really down and low still, but this is Takemitchy... one of the people that's really close to Mikey and Scott still cares, even though he's a little hurt from their last interaction. Something is going on with Mikey, for sure, but... doesn't feel it's something he can really help with.]

Scott-san, it's me, Ken.
When you have a moment, can I talk to you for a moment?

[His corruption is gone but man he still feels like utter crap. He's still in the recovery process and nearly doesn't respond, but eventually he pulls himself up enough to type back to Ken.]
Hey Ken.
Yeah, sure. What's up?
[Because he cares about Ken and everything and it's not too common that he messages him out of the blue.]

[He didn't expect to hear from Mikey, not anytime soon.
As such, he knows that he's not really prepared for this conversation, especially not after how he lost control over himself and everything. He's fucking exhausted. Even though it's his friend, he's tempted to not answer, but he spent the past weeks being isolated and he doesn't want to continue that. He needs to try, push himself a little, especially since he cares a lot about him.]

How are you?

Hello, Scott.
[ Marianne sounds worn, and she is, from long nights of working on the cure with Ethyln and the other clinic volunteers, but there's hope in her voice when she tries to reach him. ]
How are you feeling? I have good news to share. We've been investigating the infection and we've found a way to ease it.
[ Knowing how he had been the last time they spoke, she had thought of him right away. ]

Hey, Marianne.
[He's so tired and for once, it's not because of the corruption affecting him. Dealing with the aftermath of how he lost control, just feeling bad about everything... it's been a whole fucking lot. Honestly, he doesn't want to really get up, but Scott knows that he should-- he has to. People and friends he needs to apologize to, while trying his hardest to get himself back to 'normal.'
Normal feels so out of reach right now, but he has to try. Just like how she's trying right now, even though she must be worn out too. She's just really strong, isn't she?]
Tired, guess that's not surprising though. [...] Dara sucked most of the corruption out of me, I think, but maybe it'd be good if I swung by and try the cure you developed.

Hey
You're from a normal world with like phones and computers, right? You mentioned you had a high school and everything.

[Hey Jinx. How are you doing? Good? He hopes so, because he feels like a truck has ran over his emotions, and then reversed over them for good measure.
So this is a nice distraction, enough where he finds himself following along without thought.]
Huh? Can you really install more games on these things? I am really tired of Solitaire.

I think the fact I've left the dojo already speaks plenty. I've been losing grip and my shit more and more lately. I'm scared of who I'm becoming, and I'm definitely not pleasant to be around with.
To walk down this path is my own decision. We will not be meeting again.
So, I wish you all to live a happy life, from the bottom of my heart.

What-- what the hell are you talking about Mikey? What's going on?
[...Is this that curse Takemitchy mentioned long time ago? He thought that was solved, that it was all over with because Mikey seemed okay after the corruption. Maybe he should've checked on him more but he just... he just assumed that Mikey would always be fine.]

[He's a little surprised to hear from Peter, but honestly, wow, that suggestion sounds so good right now. Between the encounter with Mikey and the Sentinels he faced in the tower... just chilling with a friend and eating a sandwich is the best thing he's heard all day. Peter has some really top notch ideas.]
Hey Peter.
I. Um. Guess I'm fine.
But I'm totally down to meeting you. Besides, I'm not passing down a good sandwich. I'll meet you there.
[Scott is going to the entertainment district! Even if he a weird mix of emotions that he doesn't really know how to discuss, maybe he won't have to. Maybe he can just lend an ear to his friend.]
