[All things considered, she could have woken up in a worse situation. The daringly short white tennis skirt is more of a suggestion than anything actually functional, but the sports bra isn't the worst one she's ever worn, and her underwear is exactly as revealing as a typical swimsuit, so-!! If it bothers her, it doesn't show on her face at all. Like, sure, this whole situation is weird, but again -- not the weirdest one she's ever been in.

At the moment, she seems to be scouting for sports equipment to put in her bag. Tennis racket? Check, that's the sport she played at Gekkoukan with Rio. Hockey stick? Absolutely grabbing that to carry around, but not before giving it a few testing spins in a way that's definitely more suited for smacking someone than actual hockey. Hmmm, or maybe the lacrosse stick has better weight? Better spin that one too, just to be sure.

Watch out!! She has enough control not to smack anyone intentionally, but that doesn't mean the unaware can't bonk into it. Alternatively, she might just walk right up and stick out her free hand for a handshake.]

Hi! Are we on the same team?

Honestly, Kotone would have climbed into the pod even without the promise of a free voucher, but once the free session was offered, well-! Of course she had to get right in, nestling herself right into the pod and making herself comfortable. It's pretty easy to forget it's not actually real once she's on the island, though it feels a little impractical to be wearing her SEES uniform instead of the pink bikini she'd worn when they'd all gone to Yakushima for the summer. At least it means she can hold the jacket over her head for some protection from the blazing hot sun!

Anyway, all she has to do to win the game is form an emotional connection with someone? That's something she's had a lot of practice with. She just has to find whoever her supposed partner is, right? Wandering around blindly seems like a lot of work, so--

She drapes her uniform jacket over her arm and cups her hands around her mouth to shout,] Hellooo~oo!!!

[Ooooh she'd just been sitting in the audience watching curiously. Maybe making a few bets because hey, a girl's gotta make money somehow!! But then she's pulled out of the crowd and thrown into the ring to the crowd's cheers. Not good!!

Still, fighting is what she's supposed to do, right? She raises both fists in front of her face like she used to see Akihiko-senpai do and braces herself.]

Okay! Let's go!!

[She's 5'3 and full of determination!! And also zero hand-to-hand fighting experience. It really won't be difficult to beat her without her Personas, but she'll give it her all!]
