#p5 pt

[scrivenger-grimgar]

reading thru the p5 anthology manga, mementos missions, and oh my god??? there's so much stuff going on at once, and i love it! i feel like this is probably more accurate to what's actually going on for the thieves, several investigations are being worked on simultaneously as they deal with school and home life, working jobs, and doing homework, too.

p3 and p4 also have this but p5 just has an atmosphere thats more tense. the stakes feel higher, and thats because the storylines ans subplots are personal.

thats not even mentioning the PT themselves! i love p5 so much bc the thieves are just so comfy with each other, and while they might've been brought together by circumstance just like sees and the IT, the thieves are just so much more cohesive, they fight together seamlessly, spend time with each other outside of PT business, and aren't afraid to speak their minds to each other. i love them so much.

sees eventually became a family in the end, but it cost them so much to recognize it and further accept it, and even then they'll never be complete ever again. they love each other but would rather die than openly talk about emotions or sex.

the IT is a friend group mainly through the protag and being kidnapped. only yukiko and chie regularly spend time together unrelated to p4-protag or IT business, and as much as they trust each other in battle, any conversation the IT has about emotions or sex is going to be awkward and stilted, and one of them will quickly try to change the topic.

the PT as a friend group would openly discuss kinks and sexual preferences and have made entire pillow forts dedicated to cuddles, sleepovers, and talking about feelings.

KEEP IN MIND THIS IS ENTIRELY FROM MY OWN PERSPECTIVE!!! i love sees and the IT a lot too, its just that i personally resonate more with the PT's frustration with society, as well as being from a minority that does not Vibe with the government. sure self acceptance is great, and death comes for us all eventually, but i'm pissed at the government and i fucking hate cops.

@the-flower-karasu - continued from here!

"But, Naoto-senpai--"

Gogo stopped herself, unable to find any fault in her mentor's words. She was just going to get herself into a spiral looking at all the comments made to her after she publicly denounced the Phantom Thieves. She put her phone down with a frustrated sigh.

"Did you have to deal with this too, senpai?"

On one hand, Naoto wanted to be direct and harsh on how being public and direct wasn't always the best decision to get attention. An outburst like that reminded her of her breaking the unspoken vow to not tell Inaba townspeople that the PD was. 

On other hand, Gogo was a person who had always been more blunt and as affected as she was by the harsh reality of the law industry both tried to flourish in. She personally disagreed on the direction she’d gone for in this case but a healthy degree of agreeing to disagree was and had been a staple for months for them. She needed someone to be the mentor in this duo team.

“...sadly, yes. I’ve had questions and speculation on such topics as my personal relations, if I’m going to get married or not and if I’m foolish for not using my former celebrity name and for several other topics. Sometimes people just don’t think your point is valid and jump to the gun." She mentioned that she’d done a similar harsh declaration back at her first case to get the attention and proceed in the case and she was dead certain that if Twitter had existed with more validity she would’ve been blasted online.

“...do you mind if I ask if that was your unfiltered opinion or for the show? I know better than to assume you’re that direct on your opinion all the time.”

@party-of-rpg-muses ​ asked: 

"So, this Goro Akechi. Do you know anything about him, Shirogane-san?" Yu asked, watching yet another interview on the detective in question, whom many claim to be the "Second Coming of the Detective Prince". More of him speaking of the mental shutdowns and the Phantom Thieves.

He received a shrug from her and a mention how she knew what most did on her career: it was almost a recreation of her uprising, with the exception of him not apparently having a prestigious family. Then again... she wasn't against him having that reputation and wanting to hog all spotlight.

"He seems to be eager to try to overtake my position as the 'Detective Prince', and I am not stopping that quest of his. You, alongside the entire IT, should know how I have no need for constant media attention nor care if they think I'm too distant on my personal life." Naoto sighed and muttered how she'd never understood how long it had taken them to get her intentions of only focusing on her work matters and work facade in media interviews, but at least there was something for them to hyperfixate next.

After her remark on how that was something what still annoyed her she asked how she admittedly was curious on where he had gotten all experience and luck to get all cases to solve and how he seemed to hide something from everyone at Tokyo PD. "Color me curious on the question on him: have you looked into his past more intently than I have?"

A plotted starter for @shymaru

"Okay, so... Are you fully fine with this? I want to confirm you're mentally ready to see that bloody red sky again. The word combination I found by testing the terms I had in my own personal case led me to a place which has less intimidating Shadows than those blasted guards - thank God for that, really." It had been her idea to help her current inofficial working partner of sorts to get more used for the environment they'd most like delve in more and to be more comfortable with Personas in general. She didn't really know what to refer him as, she usually had more established cooperating forces from the get-go and against her assumptions she felt like she was the leader in charge of this operation. How ironic, considering how Ishimaru was supposed to be an Ultimate Student who knew more on this matter.

It still counted that she made an effort, right? They needed to know what worked and what didn't in that realm.

@heartfated​ ♥’d for a Halloween-themed starter! (for Ann)

“I’m admittedly curious on something even though I’ve lived here for a while. Does Tokyo have any specific ways to mention how the Hallows’ Eve exists? As much as I know the specific JuneS shopping centers have more merch and smaller cities have more festivies but it’s close to nonexistent if you don’t know to wait for it.” Naoto knew some of the basics of how it had showed in Kyoto and in Inaba, but due to the infodump from her British relatives she knew more of the traditions in her mother’s home land and not the one she’d lived in.

She’d chosen to ignore the most merch and had started to pay attention to other events than basic festivals on her 2nd high school year. The reason for her certain lack of knowledge made sense was how she’d isolated from mostly everyone and gotten more information from social events after the TV World Abduction happened.

P5 verses headcanon, pt. 3/?: Naoto’s thief outfit

The mask Naoto has has the shape of the picture below but has altered colors: It has black frames, the color is dark blue and the decorations/patterns around the eye motif and on the side with larger area are silver. The bit under right, less focused side’s eye is dulled off. 

The outfit she has is almost similar to Kaitou Kid’s thief costume minus the monocle: the suit she’d wear is mostly silver-tinted white in color, the shirt under it red and blue, the top hat/beret is smaller but still recognizable and she keeps a spare shotgun there just in case. It stays there bc magic and can be stored there temporarily bc magic. Don’t question it. She doesn’t have the cape because it’d be in the way in her opinion.

@linkyofmuses​​ asked:

Yusuke quietly appeared to be drawing as the 10 year old appeared to be people watching. Madarame let him go out for once on his own but he softly swung his legs noting the detective curiously staring to sketch her.

She didn’t notice him at first due to staring intently at the text reading in the blue-silver striped notebook she had. It had been a while she had time to just look how busy and hectic the city and people were around her and taking a small breath was good for her.

The taller male sketching her caused her to be confused. She didn't consider her to be that photogenic to begin with, even for a possible beginner artist he must be. "Hm...? Did you have something for me to say, sir...?"
