Port Island Station is as crowded as always, but it only takes a moment and a single glance to notice that one person is... perhaps not missing, for a scattered handful of appearances do not a routine make, but absent nonetheless. There is no one at all sitting in front of the florist's, and certainly not the bold and pretty artist whose presence Mitsuru has come to expect; a casual "see you tomorrow" is by no means a promise, but now that she's here and Chidori is not, she finds she had taken it as one. Perhaps it's better this way, for if Mitsuru is honest with herself she doesn't have time, today, to spend on idle chatter (even if it is with a most intriguing girl) - not with a full moon and another mysterious Shadow lying in wait. It would be best to get back to the dorm and prepare, or at least rest and save her energy for the battle to come. It would be best. And she almost listens to that logic, for it is not just her wellbeing that relies on it. She even turns back, fully intending to catch the next train to the dorm, when... something... stops her. That "something" hits her like a cry for help, and she's taken three long strides in its direction before she realizes that she heard it, not with her ears, but with her mind. The voice is distinctly Penthesilea's, and that makes the decision to investigate easy - anything so out of place as to catch her Persona's attention during the day is more than worth a look. As she reaches the alley that leads to Port Island's less reputable streets she rummages in her bag for her cell phone, mind racing through the schedules of her teammates in case she needs backup. She goes so far to scroll through her contacts to Arisato's number, then snaps her phone shut when she rounds a ... ... middle of paper ... ...member how touchy the other girl is about being touched. At least she has the energy to glare, though, and at least breathing no longer seems to be such a struggle for her, though she still looks frighteningly pale - almost as white as her dress. ."I just want to stop the bleeding," Mitsuru coaxes, and to her relief she's rewarded with a tiny nod as her answer. She carefully presses the folded handkerchief against the cut and presses down on it with her palm, wincing in sympathy for how it must hurt. Her fingertips end up resting in the hollow of Chidori's throat, and she can feel Chidori's pulse beneath them - though it is much too rapid, and much too faint. Her skin feels downright hot to the touch, and she shivers a little - "Cold," she whispers, and Mitsuru can't help but laugh. ."I'm sorry. I've always had cold hands." Penthesilea's influence, no doubt.
This extract emphasises the lonely, outworld feeling that would have been felt living in such settings. This puts into perspective the feeling that will be felt during the coarse of the plot development.
A well liked fisherman named Carl Heine mysteriously turns up dead in the small island community of San Piedro Island. World War II is beginning and there is high suspicion of traitors among the islands Japanese immigrants. Kubuo Miyamoto is accused of this crime and is put on trial at a time of high prejudice. Miyamoto and Heine had been childhood friends but in their later years, their was an honorable dispute over land. Many signs pointed to Miyamoto’s guilt, but in the end, the cause of death is determined tragically accidental and Miyamoto is set free after spending three lonely, freezing, winter months in his desolate cell. A secret love affair existed between Hatsue, now Miyamoto’s wife, and Ishmael Chambers, the islands journalist when they were adolescents. They would meet in the dense shelter of the cedar forests where they would prove their lustful love for each other. Hatsue being Japanese and Ishmael being white was not only against all of societies morals, but against everything Hatsue had ever known; her entire culture and history. As tensions boil among the islands natives, the Japanese immigrants were subject to profuse searches, stripped of every priceless belonging, and deported to work camps. Among the confusion, families were torn apart left with nothing but the clothes on their backs. Ishmael and Hatsue were forced apart and Ishmeal joined the army and their efforts against the Japanese. Though many years have passed, Ishmael has never healed from the heartbreak of losing Hatsue and he is still desperately in love with her.

The train clattered along the track, its shrill bursts of steam and grinding gears matching the snaps and misfires of her internal wiring. Though they’d done their best to assess and repair the damage, the asylum simply wasn’t equipped to deal with the intricate mechanisms of an e unit. Especially one with battlefield experience. Anne fussed with the leather clasps on her handbag, grateful for its weight on her lap as it fixed her in place. In this world, because she was nearly lost in memory. If she’d been capable of speech when she’d arrived at the asylum’s imposing double doors, she would have saved them the trouble. A bit of time and her programming would mend what human hands could not. Once her restoration program was complete, she’d
“No, in fact, I believe that spatter and the subsequent puddle of blood were caused by her falling on the ground and essentially bleeding out.”
The setting shows a world of opposing ideals, contrasting the weight and solidification of the port and land with the open and free sailor life that Ryuji has been living. This realm of opposites is bolstered by the physical environment in which the characters are placed. Yokohama, a busy Japanese shipping town, is an ideal representation of conflicting spheres. As the city is the ideal connection amidst land and sea, the ocean plays a vital point in connecting the differing ideologies present in the novel. As the plot begins, Fusako and Ryuji’s affair show how Ryuji attempted to overcome the grasp of sealife. The scene of consummation shows the elements of land and sea, Fusako and Ryuji respectively, in perfect harmony with each other as “the universal order [was] at last achieved” (13). The simply beautiful act of sex becomes su...

After a while, she came across a rather attractive young woman. She looked to be in her early 20s, with long cornflower blue hair and pale skin. She didn’t seem to notice as Suzume sat next to her. Suzume was curious as to why anyone would be lying in the grass next to a road. She gently placed a hand on her shoulder to wake her up, but the hand was immediately withdrawn due to the incredibly high fever the stranger had. Suzume started to get out the necessary items for treating the girl, but pale fingers curled around her wrist before she could do anything.
Colet bends down to her and whispers in her ear. “I promise your son…someday you’ll understand.” He sees the bloodstain on her gown has grown in size and realize Sara is still bleeding. “Let me summon you a Devine. He can help treat your wound.”
“I suppose that I have never properly thanked you for saving my life. I am sorry for that. I was not sure then that I wished it saved.”
"Don't you see now, Ally? You must learn to let things go. For a wound to heal, you mustn't touch it. Or else it will get infected."
The narrator alienated himself from friends and family which caused loneliness and despair, being one of the first themes of the story. He developed a crush on Mangan's sister, who is somewhat older than the boys, however he never had the confidence to confess his inner-most feelings to her. Mentally, he began to drift away from his childlike games, and started having fantasies about Mangan's sister in his own isolation. He desperately wanted to share his feelings, however, he didn't know how to explain his "confused adoration." (Joyce 390). Later in the story, she asked him if he was going to Araby, the bazaar held in Dublin, and he replied, "If I go I will bring you something.' (Joyce 390). She was consumed in his thoughts, and all he could think about was the upcoming bazaar, and his latest desire. The boy's aunt and uncle forgot about the bazaar and didn't understand his need to go, which deepened the isolation he felt (Borey).

First Aid for bleeding begins by calming and reassureing the victim. Next lay the victim down to reduce the chance of fainting by increasing the blood flow to the brain. Elevate the bleeding area when possible. Clean and remove loose dirt away from the wound. If an object such as a knife, stick, or arrow becomes embedded in the body, do not remove it. Doing so may increase the amount of bleeding and cause more damage. Place gauze and bandages around the object and tape the object in place. Put pressure directly on an external wound with a sterile bandage, clean cloth, or even a piece of clothing. Direct pressure is best for external bleeding, except for an eye injury. Maintain pressure until the bleeding stops. Do not peek at the wound to see if the bleeding has stopped. If bleeding continues and soaks through the material being held on the wound, do not remove it. Simply place another cloth over the first one. Be sure to seek medical attention.
