[7 JUNE] [PERSONA 3] [REI]
Title: rei
Day/Theme: 7th June 2010; the haunting riddle of the self
Series: Persona 3 (applicable to Persona 4)
Character(s)/Pairing(s): Main Character
Rating: G
Notes: "Rei", in this case, refers to the Japanese word that can mean either "zero" or "nothing". No spoilers.
Your reflection stares back at you. You know this face, these eyes - they are your own. You bear the name your parents bestowed upon you. You identify yourself by the school you attend, the class you are in, the clubs you belong to.
But who are you beyond that? Who are you behind the shallow mask?
The others have but one Persona, one figure with which their entire being is summed up. It reveals more about themselves than they would care for others to know. But you are different. You wield so, so many more. Myths and legends, gods and demons, they all answer to the call of your soul. You summon and dismiss them the way one would deal with petty, fleeting thoughts. They are all you, but none of them truly are.
You think that maybe it's to be expected; you are The Fool, after all. Empty, but holding infinite possibilities.
Who are you? That is the question you ask everytime you see that face in the mirror.
You wonder which is more terrifying: the fact that you no longer know... or no longer care.
