Feel free to tag here, if you want to run into Shadow Pheasant in Mementos.

He doesn't have a phone, and must make his own fun. Be warned that he's level 99 and will attempt to eat all Akirens (and probably many others) on sight.

"Or you could kill him. Summon up what you want people to think you are and kill him! What's wrong with all of you? You can't tell me that!" He loses it for a second, discorporating, shrieking as he goes, then collapsing into a heap on the floor. "I hate him. Fuck. I hate him!"

His shoulders tremble, like a bird's wings. "Shit. What do you want to know about the Palace?"

Sumire pauses for a moment. She can't kill him because he's the only person that she really cares about. Goro Akechi in her world is the only person she has left.

"What's in the palace? Anything that he's been using to alter reality?"

[pheasantboy]

Another shudder goes through him, as he lifts his head to stare at her. "Not—not so much the Palace itself. That was just a representation of his bullshit, except for the fact that he"—and he struggles with himself, blurring out of sight before he reforms—"was there.

"No, everything important was..." He stares around at the unimpressive-looking tunnel. "Here. In Mementos."

"What did he do to Mementos?" She has a feeling that whatever it was had been deeply unpleasant to Akechi's Shadow. She wouldn't be surprised if Maruki tried to suppress it entirely.

He blurs out again, struggling; his lips draw back from his teeth. "He. Turned it into a control centre. All of humanity passes through here—with a few exceptions. He controlled them all from here. He. He..."

Cables, glowing resplendent with thought itself, powering down the tunnels towards him, in those first moments of his separation. He'd seen them coming, and then...

"No!" And, exploding outward, he flees into the dark, into the walls of the tunnel. He'll go as far as he can—but he can't ever forget.

She didn't understand all of it but she gathered enough. So she'd have to delve further into Mementos sometime. "Thank you," she says to him before heading out of Mementos.
