I know more internet friend dealers who can hook me up on estrogen than i know dealers irl who can hook me up on weed
my best guess is itâs an attempt to invert the portrayed power dynamics. like the version of ann in the palace is portrayed as powerless and subservient, and the reveal of her appearance after awakening her persona is one of power and control. itâs also an outfit that one typically wears in a consenting setting. idk how far youâre in so i donât want to spoil, but about half the cast have outfits that are similarly a subversion in some way to their stated personality. there may be some justification for the other members because the persona series is founded on Jungian Persona theory that posits people have a social persona we show the world, but a true inner shadow self, and the castâs outfit change is intended to be the reveal for the characterâs inner self or what theyâre suppressing. in previous iterations I think the persona themselves represented this, but Iâm less certain thatâs the case in P5 specifically
Jokerâs, ArsĂšne, and many of the persona the other cast members start with are heroes from picaresque stories which feels more like a tone setting. Well, Joker is a tabula rasa the player is intended to project their own beliefs onto so Arsene is likely a tone setting choice, a declaration of intent about the kind of story thatâs going to be told, but the others I canât say for sure. letâs check out Carmen
Carmen (French: [kaÊmÉn] â) is an opera in four acts by the French composer Georges Bizet. The libretto was written by Henri Meilhac and Ludovic HalĂ©vy, based on the novella of the same title by Prosper MĂ©rimĂ©e. The opera was first performed by the OpĂ©ra-Comique in Paris on 3 March 1875, where its breaking of conventions shocked and scandalised its first audiences.
Yeah okay so sure thatâs inline with the portrayal to some extent. Itâs certainly A Choice in context, but I donât hate it thematically, in theory, but itâs also another example of throwing in something seeming subversive for just shock value without doing anything with it. Like okay, theyâre saying that Ann is actually a femme fatale, and wants to have bodily autonomy, or maybe sheâs even forward about what she wants in relationships or whatever. But I donât think that actually ties in her character arc at all which is the sin here more than anything else. Itâs A Choice, but I canât see a whole lot of literary value in it which makes it lean towards a bad one.
great be happy to read this in about 200 days from now!

this is how much iâve affected you. remember the power i hold over you in this moment.
did you think âmega-sizedâ was meant to be a metaphor for the interior of the soul?
I thought the cards were going to be horizontally arranged, and then they were vertically arranged.
I was like âoh fairlynormal size thenâ and then I remembered that most people have larger hands than me.
