[The first thing that’s heard is a loud crash, which probably resulted in the SFC being turned on. There was a groan from the background, and the feed starts to focus in on a hairy…

Wait, is that Yosuke?]

Damn it…that’s the second time today! [He stares at his new paw-hands and then back down at the shattered plate with his precious food on it, that was now down on the floor.] First the stupid fairies, now I’m a damn beast!

[A moment later, there's the sound of footsteps approaching. Then the screen shows some lady in an elaborate yellow ballgown...

Wait, is that Souji?]

Again? Yosuke, you're going to have to replace those once this curse is lifted. [Souji sighs, exasperated. As for his thoughts, they're along the lines of "Yosuke, why does your luck suck so much? And why is it rubbing off on me now?". Or something like that.] Maybe you should undergo some beast training.

[Very funny, Souji. Very funny. Yosuke’s not so amused.]

I don’t want to do any training! I just want my hands back, damn it! I don’t want the hands, or the fur, or the paws, or whatever the hell’s wrong with me now. Can’t it just be…I dunno, normal for once?

[But Yosuke, nothing is ever normal for the Persona kids for long. You should realize that by now. But he just huffs, rubbing the back of his head with a rather large paw.

Okay, okay. There is a silver lining: he isn’t in a dress this time. That’s Souji’s thing to deal with. He just has to deal with all the Beast fur that appeared on him almost overnight.

And while Yosuke's doing that, Souji takes a seat in one of the chairs nearby.]

You and almost everyone else right now. But at least you aren't sparkling in the sunlight anymore? [He crosses his arms and looks down appraisingly at his sudden new outfit.] Hmm, is it just me or does this dress make me look glittery?

[Yosuke’s looking now too.]

Better you glittering than me. If I was glittering with fur, I’d have to ask you to shoot me now.

[Souji turns to give him a look.]

Oh? Why don't you wear something like this dress once this curse blows over then? I'm sure it'd look better on you than me.

[Oh no not The Look...]

No, no. Gave the girl thing a shot once - not doing it again. I will stay with my male clothes, thanks.

[That Look of Souji’s? Now totally saying "yeah, and you're not the only one". Somehow.

...At least until his eyes stray over to the SFC.]

Well, now that we've finished talking about our crossdressing experience, let's end the show. Thanks for tuning in to this curse's edition of "Luckless Yosuke"! Now please do both of us a favor and don’t stay on this channel.

[And with that, Souji stands up to hurriedly walk towards the SFC and quickly turn it off.]

Wait, what?!

[There was more yelling in the background, as the feed cuts. This just isn’t their day, is it?]

((ooc: Okay, so Yosuke is in orange, and Souji is in grey. Have fun with their embarrassment from being from beauty and the beast, guys! If you want to talk to one of them specifically, just state it in the subject line or something in your tag!))

[...what the hell did she just see? What could she say honestly?]

Umm...normal's overrated?

[ voice ]

[pursueyourself]

[ Moments later, after Souji and Yosuke had sufficient time to let what happened sink in... ]

I'd...say it's the opposite right now, actually.

[ voice ]

[kissedgoldfrog]

[Wasn't the guy speaking to her now the one wearing the dress? Oh well, she decides to switch to voice too.]

Well, it could've been a lot worse.

[savemegermany]

[ Here, have a Cindrella!Italy staring back at you, Souji ]

Ve, ve, that dress is so pretty~!

[ video ]

[pursueyourself]

Well... Thank you?

[ He keeps it on video, because there's no point if he's saying that... ]

I think your dress is better though. More casual.

[ video ]

[savemegermany]

Ve, ve, you like it? I thought it was kind of plain. Maybe we could trade!

[undie_boss]

You know, shit like this explains why I was trying to sing to rats yesterday.

[pursueyourself]

Really? I guess I should be thankful that my personality's pretty much the same then.

[undie_boss]

Wait for the rumors to start coming true.

[Video 1/2]

[yellowglasses]

[Cat-Chie is just sitting there with an awestruck look on her face. She just blinks a few time.

What did she just...see...]

[Video 2/2]

[yellowglasses]

[Then she burst out laughing. Not nearly as bad as Yukiko gets, no, but she's still laughing pretty hard at the two of you.]

W-wow you guys have this way worse than me!

[More laughing. Chie tries to stop before continuing to talk.]

I knew there had to be a reason you guys both had avoided video chat with me earlier!

[ video ]

[pursueyourself]

[ Video, so Chie can see him lineface at her! ...For about a second, because he can't stay mad at a friend for long over something like this. ]

Yeah, we were trying not to make it public.

[Video]

[yellowglasses]

Well, your new look isn't too bad at least!
It's not like it's the first time you've had to crossdress..and you're lucky to not be some animal like Yosuke and I!

I'm still trying to cope with this new look.

[video]

[garbagecanned]

Yeah, yeah, keep laughing.

[SIGH.]

At least I'm not a cat.

[He's trying to make himself feel better, but it's not...exactly working.]

[bufudine]

[Oh, were you guys saying something? This response looks like it's covered water and other questionable things.

... Well. Serph had to regurgitate his SFC, after all. If you can see past all that gross gunk, there's a makara looking curiously at the screen.]

One of you turned into a girl?

video

[garbagecanned]

...I don't know if he's a...real girl, or if he's just got the dress.

[A beat.]

I'm not checking, either.

video

[pursueyourself]

Well, one of us is wearing a dress with a really poofy skirt.

[ Which he's still linefacing about, but right now, he's distracted by that...screen. ]

By the way, what happened to your SFC?

video;

[housewifes]

[ WOW WHAT WAS THIS... Shouma is so unsure about this place now-- ]

This doesn't... normally happen here, does it?

voice;

[garbagecanned]

[Yosuke is just...trying to salvage his dignity, okay.]

This? Has never happened before. But weird things? They kinda happen all the damn time.

video;

[pursueyourself]

[ Sob. Did everyone see this...? ]

...Not this in particular. But weird stuff happens all the time. It's like a Vatheon staple.

[video]

[cinnaponpuppy]

I should be lucky I only got a red hood then. Neither of you look bad.

[voice]

[garbagecanned]

...Either you're lying or you just have a really weird taste, dude.

[Yes he's just a little blunt.]

[voice]

[pursueyourself]

[ Uhhh... How to respond... ]

Um, thank you. It's harder than it looks for us to move around in this curse though.

[video]

[tsundyne]

[Well, isn't this interesting. Who's got the embarrassing video feed now, you guys?

Consider this payback for your little comments on her debacle with Ryoji and Minato from a few months ago--both of you because she doesn't forget that shit, man. Not easily, anyway. She's totally smirking now.]

Why am I not surprised that you guys have actually tried cross-dressing?

[Oh right. She's also wearing a rather beautiful pink dress, shockingly enough. Her hair's up in a ponytail, as it was on New Years'; she was pretty surprised to find herself wearing it, but...unsurprisingly, she doesn't mind it.

Go figure.]

[video]

[pursueyourself]

To be fair, that first time was Yosuke's fault.

[ Keeping the video on, because the cat's pretty much out of the bag now. Siiiiigh. Yosuke's luck must be rubbing off on him.

Anyway, flimsy attempt to switch the subject! ]

Oh, and that dress looks great on you, Yukari-san.
