"Now then, could you explain to us the strategy for this mission?" Questioned Makoto towards the other Thieves beside Y/N
They all looked at eachother in confusion in response to the question, apparently they had been operating in the metaverse without something as important as 'strategy.'
"Wait... you don't have one?" Makoto responded in shock - "The Phantom Thieves were acting without any plans?"
"How the hell have you guys managed to accomplish anything at all!?" Cried Y/N in just as much shock as Makoto
"Uhh... We pretty much look around the area, I provide navigation when needed, and then..." Sheepishly answered Mona
"If we run into shadows, we beat the shit outta em!" Energetically added Ryuji whilst flexing his arm
"Very well then. I feel like I'll be useful for sure." Continued Makoto - "It seems my role is to be the brain of this team. I'll analyse Mona's information and give out orders. Any objections?" Sharply questioned Queen
"N-None, Queen!" Cried Ryuji in fear of Makoto's final question
"I bet Skull's definitely the type that'll be under a girl's thumb." Breathed Ann
"Mona, will you begin navigating us?" Asked Makoto
"Y-Yes, Queen!" Cried Morgana, echoing Ryuji's similar response
"Him too, it seems..." Muttered Yusuke in response to Ann's earlier sentiment
"That makes three of us" laughed Y/N as he patted Fox on the back - "our Queen is very alluring~"
"S-Sparrow!" Cried Makoto in embarrassment, "can you not tease me whilst we are in the metaverse!?"
"Yes Ma'am!" Laughed the red-head, saluting the teams blushing advisor
================================
The Phantom Thieves approached the front door if the bank, now completely blocked after Makoto driven straight through it the last time the team was in the metaverse.
"It seems like we must find another way in." Breathed Yusuke
After a short search of the Bank's main entrance, Joker managed to find another way in for the team to enter. A secret passage hidden by the golden 'Piggy Bank' statue to the right of the main doors.
However, before the team could enter properly Makoto stopped them to come up with a plan of action for efficiently covering Kaneshiro's Palace.
"Before we infiltrate the Palace further, I think we should actually come up with a strategy." Ordered Makoto
"Well I think I've got something." Interjected Y/N
"Go on." Responded his girlfriend with a serious tone
"Given that there are seven of us currently, I think it would be best for us to divide fighting shadows to conserve everyone's energy." Answered Y/N, to the delight of everyone around him
"That's a pretty impressive plan Sparrow." Responded Mona joyfully
"So I was thinking..." Y/N continued, "for the weaker shadows, Queen and I can lead the vanguard whilst everyone else stays out of fights, and all the stronger shadows can be left to Joker, Skull, Panther, and Fox; leaving Mona to heal anyone who gets injured in the mission." He concluded
"Dude! That sounds great! I betcha we'll be able to cover more ground than usual if we work like that!" Excitedly responded Ryuji
"Here I thought I was supposed to be the brains Sparrow." Heartily chuckled Makoto
