So kids, what are you favourite movies?

M: I like Cinderella (it’s good!) and Wake Up Dead Man. All the Knives Out movies are good but that one is my favourite.

Y: probably Your Name, The Princess Bride, and A Muppet Christmas Carol

A: I like spy movies! National Treasure, Spy Kids, but also good old Robin Hood.

What would your ideal storyline for P6 be? and what type of character would you like to appear?

persona 6? honestly i’ve become kind of disillusioned with the premise of recent persona games (persona 4 and 5 specifically) so if i’m saying anything i have to give up on being realistic and be idealistic instead.

the core problem of course is that the framing in recent games has been very anti youth liberation. persona 4 and 5 especially are totally unimaginative towards thinking of a life for its characters that isn’t completely normative by the end. it wants to be about the struggles of everyday teens while still bringing them back into that socially acceptable fold by the end.

honestly i’d totally be up for a game that isn’t super focused on the idea of going through somebodies mind dungeon as like. the primary thing that’s needed to sort out their issues. i need a character to have their mind palace sorted out, finding the root of their anxieties and struggles, but then things still go wrong with their parents or whatever and they have to accept that things are shit but their friend group is here for them and they can still exist on their own terms. this kind of thing i think would be waaay more compelling for a team party angle as a kind of rough and tumble but very close knit group of teens. basically you need the story to be able to accept imperfect conclusions for characters and have that be acknowledged. hope this sounds cohesive

What is the best movie of all time?

[nejishadow]

Prince or Michael Jackson?

Michael Jackson, I suppose. Prince's music is good but I listen to it way less

Where would you take Mishima out for a date?

I'm 10 years his senior, so I wouldn't.

In my fics, though, he and Akira have gone to

The planetarium for a proper date

Out to eat for ramen and ended at a dessert shop

To Destinyland with all the Thieves

A crepe stand (Akira eats them to indulge Mishima, he typically gets the savory ones)

The aquarium and the hotel buffet (this doubled as an event for Mishima's birthday)

A small diner before visiting a bookstore Mishima likes

The beach as part of a roadtrip during college break

Akira's dorm so he can give Mishina cooking lessons

Mishima's dorm so they can talk about the book; instead they end up cuddling

Leblanc for a study date, though one occurrence was before they were dating

I believe that's all of the "proper" dates. I've written a lotta shuyuu. I will continue to write a lotta shuyuu

If we're talking canon compliance / where I think the game would let the protag take Mishima on a date, I'd pick the Aquarium and Destinyland, since you get that ferris wheel scene with all the dateable characters, and the Aquarium just feels like a sick date spot.

I want them to get to look at cool fish and get to go on some fun rides, there's so much humor potential if nothing else!

Favourite 80s band?

this makes the funny assumption that i listen to like any 80s music. i like this song i guess

[anrihints]

Prince or David Bowie?

I haven't listened to either of them before

I decided to give their songs a try. They each have their own merits but I think I'll go with Prince. Thank you for introducing these artists to me
