good morning shuake nation just thinking about how fusing satanael with loki or robin in p3re gives you raphael, patron of lovers, healing, and marriage. also saint raphaelโs feast day changes depending on calendars but the original is 10/24, shuake married day
silly ng+ idea: futaba gets sent back to before her mom was killed. she waits in wakabaโs palace for akechi. 15yo goro comes in pretending heโs not shaking in his stripey suit only to find a scrawny 12yo in a green and black unitard and goggles standing with her arms crossed +
anybody else think about goroโs resentment for ryuji coming from the fact heโs just out here vibing, doesnโt work too hard, lives in a tiny apartment with his mom and gets along with people so easily and maybe if he had been a better son he could have had that too
staring him down. none of the shadows will touch her and her stats are insane. since she retains her memories her persona is at the level it was after beating maruki even though sheโs a middle schooler who would get knocked over by a not particularly strong gust of wind. she +
much higher than his rn that if she smacked him in the metaverse heโd get knocked out. they pair up and after some training in mementos theyโre so insanely powerful. and they use featherman code names itโs all very cute
says she knows how to take down shido, and sheโll help him but only if he doesnโt kill the palace ruler. and if he wonโt cooperate with her sheโll spoil the next 2 seasons of featherman. he doesnโt really have a choice bc even though she cant normally fight her stats are so +
futabaโs kind of the ideal person for a time loop since everyone already expects her to know things she shouldnโt through questionable means and reveal them at unexpected times
post-canon akira who still panics every time he gets home before goro, and only visibly relaxes when he walks in the door. he never says a word about it of course, but for some undisclosed reason goro suddenly changes his schedule around to work from home in the afternoons
Goro "Valentine's Day gifts are inherently meaningless because the holiday makes them an obligation" Akechi and Akira "I refuse to participate in the capitalist bastardization of romance but will take any excuse to show you love so I stole these chocolates from 777" Kurusu
was thinking about robin hood this morning. and while legends differ what is generally consistent is that he strongly opposes tyranny, and aligns himself on the side of the poor and oppressed, women specifically. the whole โsteal from the rich, give to the poorโ thing is +
thinking about saeโs cognitive akechi gradually and then drastically changing personality as joker tells her everything. good thing the PTs tied his ass up
@gayandpressed
@hiyorihug
okay true and you know what it would also be a little annoying because hope is persistent despite circumstances and doesnโt always make you feel good so heโs completely on brand, cant fault him at all
goro in canon being very strong and working out a bunch but his muscles are small because he doesnโt eat enough protein. goro post-canon moving in with akira and eating properly on a regular basis and in a few months his shoulders are ripping out his jacket sleeves ๐ฅต
@raineseance
imma be so real i think 90% of why iโm an Akira truther is bc Akechi biting out โKurusuโ in that bitchy tone of his just hits in a way โAmamiyaโ canโt match
like he has to be mean to him and look down on him because he sees how easily he can be open and vulnerable and loving towards his friends and they accept his imperfections and maybe if heโd been more like that his mother would have thought him worth sticking around for
@lonelyshrike
i think he would definitely take the deal because he doesnโt think he deserves to live or that a world without akira is worth saving. and i think he knows he would and itโs partly why heโs so insistent in canon that akira not fold. because akira has to be better than him.
what if the pictures are there but heโs not in them. but he canโt bring himself to delete them because in a way theyโre still proof that it was real. and sometimes when he opens his camera roll he thinks he sees him, but when he looks directly heโs gone
@hekxate
they could have had whole conversations while he was thinking aloud and heโd never know. also what if she was at the church when akira and yusuke were doing their thing and she just took a couple pics for later use and went for a walk
haru sitting them both down once it eventually escalates to be like look. sometimes youโre sweet and smart and obedient and everything youโre supposed to be and your dad still sucks and your mom dies anyway and thatโs not a reflection of your character
@WildberryCola
๐ญ๐ญ ann knows what it means and told akira so he would stop getting offended on his behalf but they wonโt tell him because itโs too funny
yesterday i hung out with a guy for 13 hours straight and the whole time i was thinking โhe is sooo falling in love with meโ then right before we parted ways he was like โyou should definitely go to therapyโ
goro never skips leg day bc his bitch ass father always did and if heโs gonna get buff itโs gonna be evenly distributed and proportional goddamnit no dorito body shapes allowed
lore and characterization, along with Lokiโs, it doesnโt make sense to separate them. akechiโs sense of justice isnโt a set of moral principles, itโs a deep seated desire for fairness, to restore the justice he and his mother were denied by an oppressive power structure +
ultimately about evening the score, restoring justice where it was denied. thereโs this tendency to split akechiโs personas and put them at odds, and thatโs certainly how heโs perceiving it, but i donโt think thatโs the case. he awoke to both at the same time, and given robinโs +
manipulate others to achieve his goal, but in doing so he is trapped by their expectations and bound within the power structure he seeks to break. his awakening and subsequent plan for revenge on shido doesnโt contradict his โrighteousโ side, it is born from it.
and to punish the person responsible. thatโs not Loki, thatโs all Robin. where Loki comes in is that he is simultaneously empowered and restrained by his crusade for revenge. he wants to destroy his father but also wants his acknowledgment. he has to deceive and +
I'm ready to show y'all my version of LeBlanc curry. Started with the official recipe and tweaked it over a few months, and here's how I do it by heart now ๐งต
@corvidie
i think about this so much because like. akechiโs all โmy life doesnt matter nobody needs meโ to justify his sacrifice but akira is stronger and better than him, everyone needs akira, a world without him isnโt worth saving anyway- i genuinely dont think heโd do the right thing
@akcgo
๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ him thinking sure akira might have liked him before when he was playing him but thatโs all fucked now that he knows, only for him to tell him i understand and i still care for you, our story isnโt done ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
@akcgo
oh yeah. i mean the fact that that was when he awakened to hereward solidifies that for me. that trust is unshakable, no matter what else happens he knows joker wonโt ever truly let him down
@akcgo
they would. both bc they would do anything for joker if he asked esp since he never asks them for anything, and because regardless of how they personally feel about goro they do all regret not being able to help him
โyou are not what happens to youโ true, but everything that happens to you is a catalyst for a choice you make, which in turn shapes the person you become. and thatโs why taking marukiโs deal is the worst thing anyone could do to goro akechi, because it erases the choice
@hansflahns
this is only an important distinction when weโre talking about the moral implications of changes of heart and their logical and sound arguments against it but they are absolutely part of the found family ๐ค
@akerrinn
a coincidence that the song that plays at goroโs special place is the default theme inside jokerโs heart? absolutely not this fact floats around in my head along with how the goro cognition in the den makes his bitchy comments <3 but seems more relaxed, gets along with everyone
@PeachiieKeen
reminds me of those fics where post-canon akechi ends up getting some shitty service job and heโs so bad at it and akira finds him and nobody has ever been so happy to be cursed out by a cashier
@nowviis
theyโre such wasted potential like kawakami could have been a great supportive figure and ohya the cool lesbian journalist who akiren helps find a lead but instead theyโre just pedos ๐ญ
@yukawwi
that plus the new years scene and sleeping beauty end just kill me like. the rest of them just do not gaf if he didnโt fix shit for them, itโs only akechi. they both just enjoy being with each other above all else i hate them
akiren working at leblanc and akechiโs at one end of the counter with a chessboard and hifumiโs on the other with a shogi board and and heโs playing both of them between customers. yusuke comes in, gets invested in hifumiโs game narration and starts drawing the scenes
@Renard_Pixel

@Toastand_egg
right and morgana has directly targeted ryuji's insecurities literally from day 1, while cozying up to joker who incidentally is ryuji's only friend and shitting all over him when everyone at school already does that daily. i dont even hate mona but that shit bothers me
