Hey there all you crazy kids!
So our little Miss Shiki Misaki here has undergone a little bit of a change.
She and Neku found themselves in a little bit of a situation. It was a situation that demanded immediate attention. Immediate physical attention.
Shiki needed to be able to fight.
Well, being a well, alive, (mostly) normal teenage girl in the castle, a girl not retaining any of her abilities from the Reaper's Game, she did not know how to fight like she needed. So she and Neku tried something.
They Pacted. (The capitol "p" was intentional, I promise.)
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR SHIKI?
Well, long story short, it means that she and Neku are now connected on a slightly psychic sense - not that they can read each other's minds, but they fight together. Always. Literally, if one of them gets into a fight, the other one of them will instantly be drawn to where that first person is, and will fight with them. The ultimate case of "you mess with one of us, you mess with all of us."
It also means that she can now fight with a stuffed cat that she made herself and carries around with her everywhere named Mr. Mew using telekinesis. She claims that she just sends Mr. Mew out and he "does his own thing", but if she's incapacitated, Mr. Mew isn't going anywhere. That being said, if you see a stuffed kitty flying at your face, you better hide your face.
HOWEVER.
Since she was alive when she and Neku Pacted (still an intentional capitol "p"), she does not have a Player Pin. Therefore, unlike some other characters from The World Ends With You, she cannot read minds. If she were to somehow aquire a Player Pin, she might be able to, but as it stands, she has the abilities that come from the Pact, but nothing else that comes from the Reaper's Game.
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR YOU?
...Not all that much, for now. As no one is in the middle of getting into a fight with her, it's not like she's suddenly going to bust out awesome telekinetic powers out of nowhere and open a god-moddy can of whoop ass all over anyone. However, she is going to have some reactions to her regained abilities, and she will be able to fight significantly more effectively from now on.
This is all shiny and mod-approved and everything, too!
Anyway, I just thought you all should know! Thank you for your time - you may now return to your pre-scheduled programming~
