to which luffy responds: “I asked if he was gonna betray me and he said no!”
cue kidd imploding.

I must admit I was slightly out of it when I sent that message, but I would still love you and your obsession with assassins’s creed even if you were a shoe even when I’m with it. I would love to go to Florence with you regardless 😘
- kiss anon
don’t worry i’m permanently acting like an enormous sea creature just spat me onto the deck of a ship, covered in barnacles so the ship’s surgeon (who is cute) has to gently chip them away from my skin leaving raw wounds behind that they wrap in seaweed for purely aesthetic purposes. and then i become a rigging monkey and sleep tangled up in the sails. the girl in the crow’s nest falls in love with me but so does the cute surgeon but it’s okay i have two hands

They're really pulling some niche figures for these new Personas, huh?
Prosymna is one of three naiad daughters of the Greek river god Asterion. Along with her sisters (Acraea and Euboea), she served as a wet-nurse for Hera. The name Prosymna means "celebrate in song," which explains her harp-like design.
(Prosymna is also a genus of snake!)
Erytheia is one of the three (or four, or seven) Hesperides, nymphs who presided over evening and sunsets. The name Erytheia means "the red one." There doesn't seem to be much mythos surrounding Erytheia specifically, but her name was assigned to a small island northwest of Gilbraltar. (Nowadays it's part of Spain! The city of Cadíz can be found there.)
Preceded by Leucothea, Erytheia is one of the two (possibly 3?) P5X Persona to be rendered as a masculine entity despite being based off a distinctly feminine mythological figure. Not sure why they're doing that, but hey, the designs are great!
Syke is a bit of an oddball. While it would be easy to presume it's meant to represent Psyche, the Greek goddess of the soul…Psyche has already appeared as Metis' Persona back in P3 FES, so it's possible this one is a different entity. However, something worth noting: like the other Greek myth Persona in this post, Psyche came in a set of three, having been the youngest of three sisters.
Of what I've been able to dig up, Syke (or Syca) was also the name of a town in ancient Cilicia, a region in southern Anatolia. Another name for Syke was Setos, possibly based off the primordial sea goddess Ceto. Ceto is considered one of the oldest-known deities in Greek myth, and was mother to a myriad of monsters, such as the Graiae and Gorgon sisters.
Meng Po is the Chinese goddess of forgetfulness, tasked with ensuring that souls headed for reincarnation are reborn with no memories. To accomplish this, she serves a memory-wiping soup to souls crossing the Naihe Bridge out of Diyu, a subterranean maze that serves as an equivalent to hell in Chinese mythology.
This lore explains both the bowl and lantern in this Persona's design. The bowl represents the soup, obviously enough, while the lantern can be interpreted as symbolic of "guiding the dead."
Cleodora was one of the three Thriae, prophetic nymphs who lived in the Corycian Cave of Mt. Parnassus. Though the Thriae are often considered to be the "bee-maidens" (women bearing human heads/torsos and bee wings/lower bodies) described in the Homeric Hymn to Hermes, it's possible they're different trios; the Thriae predicted the future through throwing stones (pessomancy/mantic pebbles), while the bee-maidens predicted the future through casting lots (cleromancy).
The only info I can find on Cleodora as separate from the Thriae states that she was the mother of Parnassos, who invented a way to predict the future based on birds (ornithomancy).

Three weeks since I moved, and I still need to unpack the boxes :'D

Okay, I need Luffy-writer's opinion on something, because I honestly can't decide how he would react. The scenario is this: One of Luffy's allies asks Usopp (doesn't have to be specific to him, he's just the example) to join their crew. Timeline wise, I'm thinking it happens post-battle of onigashima while Luffy's still unconscious.
Please lmk in the tags or replies how you think Luffy's would react after finding out this happened
