The last battle during the full moon had taken a bit of an emotional toll on Setsuna. Once again, she was barely of any use, but, more than that, someone she cared about was pretty badly hurt because of her. Sure, Jaelyn chose to protect the girl on her own, but if Setsuna hadn't been so weak, there would've been no need for her to try and protect her at all. Plus, just the whole thing in general. She was getting used to going out and fighting Shadows. It was explaining to her parents where she had been and why she almost always looked so beaten up that was getting to be difficult. So far, she'd been able to deflect suspicion, but it wasn't going to work forever.
Of course, she had considered telling the truth. But they'd either have a heart attack or think she's crazy and lock her up in her room. Neither one would be good, so she figured it would probably be best to keep the whole thing hidden from them. For all of the adults, it was probably easier to keep all of this a secret, but Setsuna was a fifteen-year old girl (possibly the youngest out of the human Persona Users) who still lived with her parents. For her, it wasn't quite so simple. But all of that was nothing compared to her frustrations over Jaelyn. In spite of her desperate attempts to avoid it, she had managed to do the one thing she swore she'd never do again; fall in love.
However, it was because she was so desperate not to fall for anyone that she refused to acknowledge her own feelings, despite how obvious they were; even to her. Thus, her feelings were extremely conflicted, and it was causing the girl no end of frustration. Thus, she did what she always did when she was feeling frustrated; go to the arcade. Between the punching bag game, various fighting games/beat-em-ups and one particularly fun game where you blow things up in a tank, it was the perfect way for the girl to vent her frustration and anger. And since her family was well off, she was always able to come here with plenty of money to spend. Deciding to take a break to get some lunch, she headed over to the restaurant section of the arcade and get some food.
Sitting at an empty table by herself, she set down a tray consisting of about three slices of pizza and enough fries to feed three people. Hey, she's a growing girl. Besides, she'd have plenty of chances to burn off the calories when she goes to beat the crap out of Shadows later on. Still, despite most of her frustration having been successfully vented, she was still left with the problems themselves, and no clue what to do with them. As always, the girl was usually pretty easy to read. One look was all it took to tell she had a lot weighing on her mind.
