HELLOOOO-- So I'll explain below what this AU is, and if you don't know either Steins;Gate or Urasawa's Monster, avoid reading the tweets below because spoilers XD #岡部倫太郎 #シュタゲ #シュタインズゲート #シュタゲゼロ #オカリン #SteinsGate #Monster #KenzoTenma #モンスター first of all, I thought about an AU where instead of being sad and depressed after failing to save Kurisu (S;G 0 timeline), Okabe becomes the complete opposite of sweet and resorts to being a 'delinquent' to cope with his sadness. In the story, Okabe goes to see a psychologist. So if Monster's universe was mixed with Steins;Gate, then that psychologist is Dr. Reichwein, Tenma's psychologist friend,( considering that first of all, the events of monster happen in modern day; Tenma goes back to Japan). Okabe's bad conduct at university leads his parents and friends to send him for counseling sessions, to Dr. Reichwein. One day, once Okabe is done with one of his sessions, he leaves and makes an awkward eye contact with Tenma, but ignores him. (I actually had this image in mind immediately after waking up from a nap--) Tenma, who is dying to erase his mistake (saving Johan from death), feels that the man he just stared at could help him. Eventually, Okabe and Tenma become friends, and Okabe confides in him, that he could change the past. Obviously, Tenma is eager to try it, but Okabe refuses completely. Eventually, one of this worldline's events will lead Tenma to die, and this would be the reason why Okabe will finally decide to time travel again in order to save all of his friends, including Tenma.
