In mythology Loki has a bunch of kids (and even birthed one), so for this idea let's assume that Akechi's Loki has all the memories of original Loki, and since Loki is a dad, he loves kids.
Loki in Persona 5 looks pretty intimidating, which makes this idea even better! That trope of the scary looking guy actually being a big softy. You would think it would be Robin Hood that would be crazy over kids, but no, it's Loki.
So poor Akechi has to deal with Loki chiming in his head everytime a child comes into his line of sight: *A BABY, LOOKATTHELITTLEHUMANIWANTITITSMINENOW."
Like that one famous Tiktok audio:
"Oh my god, I wanna take him home!!"
"We can put him in the tru---"
"We can put him in the trunk! Look at him!!"
If it were up to Loki he'd make Akechi adopt so many kids.
And poor Robin is the strawman, or well, tries to be, "Loki, we can't just take children."
"Our meatpuppet is a celebrity, he can afford a kid!"
"I'm pretty sure money isn't the issue, that child isn't even an orphan, look, his mother is right there."
Just for the hell of it, something happens that turns Akiren into a toddler, and now both Loki and Akechi are baby crazy (Akechi is more subdued about it, but internally he's going: "Shit, he's actually really cute, I wanna crush his stupid pudgy face like a watermelon." )
Loki: "Ours, that's ours now, we're taking him home, meat puppet--"
Akechi: "Will you please stop calling me that?"
Loki: "Silence! We can smuggle him under our coat, he'll fit easily."
Robin Hood: đ€Š "Loki, no."
Baby Akiren waddles up to Akechi, and tries to say his name, "Go-go" (Goro)
Externally, Akechi is fighting for his life to seem unphased and cool: "Uh, yeah, good job."
Internally: ascending from cuteness overload
Another popular tiktok audio that fits, John Cena:
"I am taking it home, WITH ME! IT IS COMING HOME WITH ME, AND NOBODY CAN STOP ME!"
