[ The first thing Ren notices as he's brought to the hot springs near that huge school in the snow is that there are an absolutely absurd amount of adults running around. So he perks up and really notices when he sees people his own age. The other weird thing is it's definitely summer the last time he checked; why there's all this snow everywhere in late June confounds him, but he figures this might be a Palace-Metaverse-Persona Thing. (Ren keeps checking for his mask though, and there's nothing, and no one by his side.)
He slides in to the water, his own cold, aching muscles warming quickly from the heat, next to some- Oh wait, isn't that the detective from that TV studio? Ren almost forgot his face in the craziness of Makoto's investigation into Kaneshiro. Or maybe it's just because his fake glasses were fogging up from the spring's steam. Ren lets them slide down his nose a bit before taking them off and folding them up to place on a snowy rock behind him.
He holds up a hand in greeting to... What was his name again...? Akechi! ] Funny meeting you here. [ There's a small pause before Ren puts a slightly depreciating smile on his face and says: ] I thought the dogsled was pretty fun. [ Akechi certainly seemed to like it when Ren expressed strong opinions, after all! Might as well keep going with that on a non-Phantom Thieves-related subject. ]
