Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Persona 5, Persona 4, Persona 3, Genei Ibun Roku #FE | Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE,

Hey, I wanna talk about how we do fandom! I've come to realize that I, personally, tend to differ from many others in that I highly prefer to only engage with a text as it's written, so I don't tend to really like fanon/extremely ooc characterizations and I find it hard to get invested in ships that aren't canon. My way of doing fandom isn't better or worse than anyone else's, but I am curious about how much of a minority I'm in! So:

*We've all seen ships of characters not from the same media and stuff like shipping the concept of ennui with the color blue, okay, I'm asking what you, personally, find compelling!

[A/N]: I finally wrote a thing based on this post! 

TW: Injury, Character death (but it’s not any of the PT), just Yusuke not having a good time in general.

Also on AO3

For what must be the twentieth time today, Yusuke curses his luck as he dodges a shadow’s attack. 

It was a restless day in Tokyo, which obviously meant changes in Mementos. There were hordes of shadows stalking the tunnels today, and a particularly bad ambush had left the Phantom Thieves scattered. 

Then, to make matters worse, the Reaper just had to show up and chase him until Yusuke was forced onto a lower floor than the others.

From the snippets of conversation Yusuke managed to pick up via Necronomicon, it seemed like the others had managed to regroup and were looking for him. He just has to try his best to hold out until then.

Yusuke chuckles to himself. Easier said than done.

A fire spell comes dangerously close to striking his face.

Whumptober Day 29: Alt. Prompt Body Swap

A/n: Everyone say thank you to @yumizurueleonora for reminding me I wrote this because otherwise I was just gonna skip this day.

Perception

Dru watches the guards bring in the new prisoner, the self-proclaimed Wootox The Destroyer. The others steer clear of the fresh meat and Dru walks over to him.

“Hello,” Dru says, flashing a smile. “Let me introduce myself. I’m Dru Harrington. As the others have hopefully informed you, I’m the guy who can get you whatever you need.”

“I don't need anything from you,” Wootox says.

Dru laughs. “Oh funny guy, why are you trying to speak Terran.”

“You can understand me?”

“I’m Tangarian,” Dru says and Wootox looks confused. “We have similar vocal chord structures?”

“Of course. Well, whatever, leave me alone.”

Dru narrows his eyes. “One thing first, I need to know if you did anything to the Blue Ranger.”

“What if I killed him?”

“Well it'd be on your rap sheet,” Dru says, “but for your sake it’s better if you didn’t hurt him.”

“Why do you care, you shot him.”

“Well you know he was the only guy willing to do it in a broom closet five minutes before an exam so I probably owe him for that.”

The very human startled reaction doesn’t look quite right on Wootox’s body.

“Hello, Sky.” Dru says. “Thank you for confirming Wootox’s ability to switch bodies for me.”

“I’m happy to help,” Sky says, “now leave me alone.”

“And how could I abandon my Angel when he needs my help.”

“I’m not your Angel, and I don’t need your help.”

“Really? You’re planning on escaping prison and getting back to Earth on your own? When you’re a wanted criminal who’s already escaped once?”

Sky glares at him.

“Do you think they’ve noticed you’re acting off yet? Or has Wootox already gotten rid of anyone who might get suspicious. Bridge can find him out easily if he gets a whiff of something wrong, and he’s your roommate. Or maybe he's just taken whatever SPD tech he can get his hands on, run off, and sold it to the highest bidder, and now your friends are facing upgraded Krybots and criminals who know their every weakness. Or–”

“Enough,” Sky growls. “Why do you want to help me? I thought you didn’t need me.”

Dru leans back and smiles. “Maybe there is some goodness left in my heart. Maybe I’m just enjoying the irony of this whole situation.”

“So you’re helping me for a laugh?”

“I’m helping you because if anyone’s going to have you weak and screaming on your knees, metaphorically or otherwise, it’s going to be me, Angel, and it’s no fun if you’re already at my mercy.”

Sky turns away.

“Tick tock, Sky. Every second you waste is another second Wootox can use your body to hurt your precious SPD.

“Fine.” Sky says. “What’s your plan?”

“It’ll take me time to come up with something.”

“I know you Dru, you had a plan the second you figured out it was me.”

“Always so needy,”

“You’re the one who said I don’t have time to waste.”

“Alright, but just because it's you,” Dru says. “I do have a plan, but I won’t tell you what it is.”

“Why?”

“Because you’re just going to have to trust me.”

Sky is clearly mulling it over, looking for something to argue against, but they already both know the plan is sound.

“How soon can you get it done?” Sky asks.

“Oh, I'm a pretty busy guy, running an information network from inside prison, you’ll have to convince me to move it up on priority list.”

“What now, Dru.”

“Let me remind you how to have fun, Angel.” Dru takes Sky by the arm and leads him to a closet, then presses up against him.

“I don’t know how to use this body like that.”

“We figured it out once, we can do it again.” Dru shifts to his Tangarian form. “You have no idea how much I've thought of getting to do this with you like this.”

“Let’s just get this over with.”

“You can try and have a little fun,” Dru says. “I’m going to make this pleasurable for you too.” He gives Sky a shock Sky shudders. “See? I remember the kind of things you liked. Different body doesn’t mean a thing.”

Sky moans a little, and Dru gets to work.

~

The chemicals released by Wootox’s body after sex are even stronger than the ones humans have, so Sky’s practically a giggling useless puddle once they’re done.

It's easy enough to get the guards to turn the other way as Dru takes “Wootox” back into his cell and says they’ll be sharing for a bit, so now all Dru has to do is send a message.

“Hello, Jack,” he says into the recording. “Thank you so much for sending Sky over here to visit me. I’m having so much fun with him, I can only assume you did this on purpose, right? Surely you’ve noticed Wootox in Sky’s body before this. I mean Bridge is psychic, so you must have known and decided to do me a favor. Thank you so much, I really owe you one.”

There, that should get those idiots to actually check and come rushing over to get Sky back in his body. He sent it along a secure SPD channel, so they’ll notice soon enough.

As much as Dru would love more time with Sky, he’s not stupid enough to rock the boat on a whim. If he’s whisking Sky off to the furthest corner of the galaxy so that stupid blue boy will stop sticking around in his mind, he’s going to take longer than a day to plan it.

So he’ll just have to settle with leaving Sky a reminder of how good they can be together, and mocking the other rangers for being such idiots. If it puts a seed of doubt in his mind about whether he belongs at SPD, then so be it.

Although… maybe there’s one more thing he can do to rub salt in the wound.

“This is all my fault,” Syd groans. “If I hadn’t hit him so hard–”

“Someone sneaking into our room deserves an iron fist to the face,” Z says, “it’s not your fault Sky – or Sky’s body? – was so exhausted it kept him out for three days.”

“But it was still weird! We should have checked if something was wrong there!”

“One weird thing isn’t enough to assume someone’s been body snatched,” Bridge says. “And my powers don’t work if I don’t know to check… maybe I should learn to read minds or something.”

“You can work on that after we get our Sky back,” Jack says, gripping the shuttle controls a little too tightly. 

That fucking message from Dru. Self righteous prick. If he’s done anything to Sky, Jack will beat him up himself.

It’s clear he wants something, and Jack's a little worried he already for it from Sky.

They arrive at the prison and haul Wootox-in-Sky’s body to the meeting room, where Sky-in-Wootox’s body is waiting, alongside Dru.

“What are you doing here?” Jack asks.

“I want to make sure you don’t mess this up,” Dru says.

“Bridge?” Jack says and Bridge scans Sky-in-Wootox’s body.

“Yep. That’s Sky!” Bridge says.

They shove Wootox-in-Sky’s body towards Sky-in-Wootox’s body and hold him still while Sky-in-Wootox’s body touch their foreheads together.

There’s energy and a bright light, but suddenly Sky stumbles back and he’s stopped glaring.

Jack ungags him. “Sky? That you?”

“Yeah,” Sky says. “I’m me, and why does my head hurt?”

“Sky!” Syd hugs him. “I’m so sorry I knocked you out!”

“Hm?”

“That creep snuck into my room and was watching me and I was holding an hair iron and when I tried to push him away I launched him across the room with an iron fist.”

“Wootox has been passed out in your body for three days,” Z says.

“Oh! So he didn’t do anything!” Sky says. “I was worried he’d hurt you guys.”

“No, as it turns out your body was just exhausted already,” Bridge says, “so when Syd hit him he just slept it off.”

“Still burning that midnight oil?” Dru asks and they’re suddenly all reminded he’s here. “Sky, do you really need me to help you get to sleep.”

“We’ll finish this conversation later,” Jack says, “let’s go.”

“What no thank you for fixing your catastrophic mistake before something serious happened?”

“Thank you,” Jack grits out. 

“I want one more thing.”

“If it’s a lighter sentence, you’re lowering your chances.”

“I want it from Sky.”

“No.”

“And if I say that I strapped a bomb to Wootox and will blow us all up if I don’t?”

“You care too much about money for that,” Jack says. “You’re a guy who knows when to cut his losses and run.”

“Oh, that your professional analysis,” Dru says, pulling out what looks like a detonator. “Willing to stake your life on it?”

Before Jack can say anything, Sky rushes forward, pulls Dru close and kisses him for far too long. 

Even without his translator, Jack’s pretty sure he understands what Wootox is saying.

They finally separate, and Sky has the detonator in his hands.

“This is a pen.”

“Did it’s job,” Dru says. “I hope we can catch up again soon, Sky.”

He knocks on the door, and guards arrive to take him and Wootox away.

Sky coughs and straightens up. “Ok, well we’ll have to go check in with Commander Cruger so–”

“Are you ok?” Jack asks. “Dru didn’t do anything to you?”

“No, it's fine,” Sky says. 

“Are you–”

“It's fine,” Sky says, “I don’t want to talk about it, let’s just get back.”

Sky leaves first and the others follow out, and Jack can’t get that damn look of Dru’s out of his mind.

Like he’s telling Jack he’s got something Jack can never have.

Wasn’t expecting to get one but-

So. Leverage-inspired PT heist fic. Ann (who can act now because I said so) is the grifter who’s distracting everyone, Ryuji’s hitting people, Futaba’s hacking, Ren’s the one doing the actual thievery/the mastermind.

They’re trying to steal the remaining evidence to take down the remnants of the conspiracy before it can all be deleted or erased, but they find out the real evidence is a witness that’s being held hostage. They’ve gotta figure out how to save this witness before it’s too late.

GUYS. ALTO HAS A FANFIC BLOG TOO. FOLLOW HER NOW.

Whumptober Day 2: Amusement Park

The Things I Do For You

“Why are we doing this again?” Akito groans as he helps pick through the remains of the burnt pier.

“Because Aoyagi can’t say no to Tenma and you can’t say no to Aoyagi,” Tono says.

Akito grimaces, but he knows Tono’s right. Phoenix Wonderland had bought the land the pier is on to expand into a water park, but then it had mysteriously burnt down, so now they were stuck helping pick through the wreckage.

The two of them are doing some heavy lifting by the water, which isn’t fun in the humid summer air. Akito’s pretty sure he’s run out of sweat and is about to suggest to Tono that they grab some water, but Tono’s staring off into the ocean.

“Tono? What’re you spacing out for?” Akito asks.

Instead of a snappy retort, Tono doesn’t say anything until Akito physically walks up and grabs his arm.

“Dude, what’s wrong?” 

Tono blinks. “Sorry, I just could have sworn I heard Souma.”

“What? Dude, why would Souma be here? It wouldn’t be safe.”

“Yeah. Of course. You’re right.” Tono says, but he doesn’t sound convinced.

Akito rolls his eyes and grabs Tono’s arm. “C’mon, I think the heat is getting to us.”

Akito! Help!

Akito whips his head around at the sound of Toya’s voice, but the only thing behind him is the blue expanse of the ocean.

“No,” Akito says. “Fuck this.” He starts dragging Tono away from the ocean with one arm and calls Toya with the other.

“Akito? Everything ok?” Toya asks over the phone. 

“Were you by the pier?”

“Um, no? We’re over by the Ferris Wheel.”

“Yeah, thought so. Tono and I are hearing things, can we meet you by the snack station?”

“Are you ok?”

“We will be once we’re in the shade and drink like a gallon of–”

Suddenly, Tono tears away from him and starts running back towards the pier. “Souma! I’m coming partner!”

“Tono– talk to you later, partner!” Akito hangs up and chases after Tono, tackling him into some wood before he can throw himself into the water.

“Let me go! Souma needs me!”

“Souma is not here!”

Akito, help me! I can’t swim!

Akito looks up and blinks. That certainly looks like Toya in the water, but Tono struggling to get out from under him takes Akito’s attention away.

Akito, help! Don’t you care about me? Don’t you love me? Will you really let me die?

“Ok, look,” Akito says, trying not to hurt Tono too much. “I do love Toya, I’ve also had too many problems with people who look like Toya using that to get to me, and I literally just talked to him, and if Toya was suddenly drowning we’d be hearing Tsukasa, so no. Not gonna work, sorry.”

Not-Toya looks annoyed, then sinks back into the water.

Akito breathes a sigh of relief, but a split second later, scaly hands burst out of the water and grab onto his arms.

He and Tono are dragged over the side of the pier into the water. Akito can’t make out what’s grabbing onto him in the dark, but it’s all he can do to hold onto Tono and try and swim away.

Akito kicks and pulls frantically to get away, and eventually spots a rotting piece of the pier and kicks at it frantically from you.

The entire thing above them shakes and old wood crashes into the water, chasing off the figures in the dark.

Akito swims back to shore faster than he’s ever swum in his life, dragging Tono the whole way.

“Akito? What happened?” Toya, the real Toya, with legs, is on the rest of the pier with the others.

“We got fucking sirens,” Akito sputters. Tono also starts coughing up water.

“What?”

“Sirens, Toya.” Akito says. “We got fucking sirens. Let’s get out of here.”

Shut the fuck up, Google Docs.

That’s right. I’m not worth it.

And at that moment, the last shred of the person Kiria Kurono used to be shriveled up and died.

5/36 with Toya and Harumichi for the fic prompts!

5. "Come here. Sit down and tell me what's going on."/36. "Please, look at me."

Toya’s… different.

Very different today.

It’s not quiet pride. Something’s actually wrong.

It’s a different type of tension in the house. Not the one that both of them had gotten used to, not the one that has slowly started thawing as time goes on…

It’s so strange that Harumichi finds himself missing a note on Queen of the Night. He hasn’t missed that note since he was a teenager.

“Are you alright?” Narin asks, shocked.

Harumichi sighs, and Toya rushes down the stairs.

“Did someone die?!” He snaps, his eyes wild, and Harumichi shakes his head.

“No, no. I’m sorry. Just… Narin, can you…” He starts, and Narin glides toward his office.

Toya looks at him, and Harumichi motions for him.

“Sit down.”

Toya looks at him confusedly, but he steps over.

He gently sits down, and he looks at Harumichi again.

“What is it?”

Harumichi feels his tongue start to tie up. He’s a better musician than speaker. He doesn’t know where to start.

“Can you tell me what’s wrong?” He finally says, and Toya looks up.

“Nothing’s wrong.” He lies so easily.

When did he become so practiced in the fine art of lying? How many times has he lied without Harumichi realizing?

“Don’t lie to me.”

And Toya just… sighs.

“…Why?” He asks.

“Why what?”

“Why can’t you see me for who I am?”

Harumichi tilts his head.

“What are you talking about? You’re my child, I—”

“That’s it!” Toya snaps. “That’s it! You see me as nothing but your child! As that little boy! Father, in less than two years, I’ll be a man! Why can’t you see me as such?!”

Harumichi shakes his head.

“You’ll understand when you have children of your own. You could be 50, you’ll still be my child.”

Toya tenses up, and his fingers slip into his hair.

“Look at me.” He pleads. “Please, look at me! See me for who I truly am, not who I was!”

Harumichi shakes his head.

“Toya, that is one thing I cannot do!”

Toya chuckles.

“Of course. Of course you can’t. This is why I didn’t want to talk about it. You’ll never allow me to fly free from the birdcage.”

He stalks away, and Harumichi sighs.

Just… sighs.

He’s not a man. He doesn’t understand that he’s not a man yet.

When Harumichi was his age, he made mistake after mistake and almost lost everything until he fell into Narin’s arms. Almost lost his life.

Hatsuaki took after Narin. Kamui’s always marched to the beat of his own drum.

But Toya, he’s just like Harumichi. Despite how they both deny that to each other.

He’s young. He’s desperate.

And he’s going to fall into the wrong arms. The arms of a devil, rather than an angel.

But he can stop history from being twisted. He can keep him away from that devil as much as he can.

And when he taps out those notes, it’s that perfect sonata again.
