PERSONA 3 RED and BLUE ( COMPLETED )

Ryoji Mochizuke - Part 2

The lesson went on after Ryoji introduced himself , with the students' attention circling him at first , until Miss Toriumi threatened to forbid her class from participating in the school trip . Minako was conscious of Ryoji sitting next to her , but when the teacher began asking questions , she had to pay attention to the lesson , and soon enough the feeling subsided . During lunch break , Junpei wanted to get to know the new student better , and along with Kenji he approached him . As the three boys talked , Kenji and Junpei noticed that Ryoji was staring at the twins , and they figured he had his eyes on Minako .

" oh , have you been properly introduced to them yet ? Hey , Minato ! Over here ! "Kenji wanted to introduce Minato to the new student , but Minto automatically placed his earphones in his ear the moment he heard Kenji calling him , as the last thing he wanted to deal with was Kenji

" he's still mad at you , never mind him " Junpei sighed , and decided to call Minako instead " hey , Minatan , c'mere ! "

" hm ? Yes , Junpei , what is it ? " Minako approached the three boys , but then she realized that Ryoji was among them " oh , you're the new transfer student "

" she was a transfer student last spring , too "

" I see , I'm Ryoji Mochizuke " Ryoji friendlily introduced himself to her

" I'm Minako Arisato , the vice leader of SEES and one of their strongest Persona users ! " Minako happily nodded

" ack ! Minatan ! What are you saying ? " Junpei was startled by Minako's words

" what ? What did I say ? " Minako didn't seem to realize

" Persona ... user ? Sees ? Sees what ? " Kenji was confused

" oh , yeah ... see , Kenji , a Persona is ... is ... " It was only then that Minako realized what she had said , and she hastily tried to patch up her blunder by saying "a ... a card game ... from ... from USA ! Y—yes !  "

" my ... you're such a lively person ! " Ryoji smiled gently , and as he saw Minako laughing awkwardly at her slip-up , his mind began wandering away

" you know , you have a staring problem , dude " Junpei remarked " you've been staring at her for a while now "

" I just ... I have this strange feeling whenever I look at Minako-chan ... it's like ... nostalgia ... like we've met before ! "

" oh , the feeling is mutual " Minako nodded

" haha ! That's the oldest pickup line I've ever—! Wait what ?! " Junpei's jaw dropped as he stared at Minako with disbelief

" well , whatever it is ... I hope we get along ... "

Ryoji reached out with his hand to shake Minako's hand , but it was then that Aigis came and clutched his wrist fiercely . The whole atmosphere turned awkwardly as Aigis glared at Ryoji .

" you are a threat ... stay away from Minako-san ! " she sternly demanded
