[ Hah. One more fighter? Sure. But family? Akechi has never really fully believed that-- not when Guren himself hardly ever relied on anyone else when he really needed. It's hard to have faith in a leader that doesn't set up a good example.

Still, he offers a nod in acknowledgement of those words, and his gaze follows after Guren, focused on the island. There's no telling what awaits them out there, but he knows he can count on his own strength, his own plans. ]

[ A group of fellow Persona users, though he doesn't say as much out of respect for anyone possibly trying to still keep their identities a secret. ] The one remaining seat in our boat will be used for storing supplies-- bandages, a few daggers, fresh water and food. If everyone does turn up in the island, it's very likely they'll be malnourished.

[ Look at this boy!! He's not just prepared for a fight, he's actually thinking of the victims!! Wow!! ]
