I really love your persona 5 fanfiction. Especially your iwai x Akira stuff and I wanted to know if you plan on continuing the BBB fanfiction. I ask this because it has a great start and it seems like it has a well though out plot line. But it only has a single chapter and I would love to see more of it. Do you think you might even go back to it?

Oh thank you so much! I'm so glad you like it! It's a much more niche fandom/rare pair so it's always good to get feed back for it. I would absolutely like to go back to it so just try and hang in there with me!

Can I get a kiss prompt 46 out of jealousy with Iwai/Akira? I love all your little fics!!!

:D :D I’m glad you like them! I hope you like this one too.

“The cash drawer’s emptied and the front door’s locked. I flipped the sign.”

“Mmhmm.” Iwai doesn’t look up from the model gun spread out in pieces before him, and Akira frowns.

“It’s 8 pm,” he tries.

“All right.” Iwai carefully brushes a thin layer of glue on the barrel and presses a piece against it, holding it until it sets.

“I’m taking off all my clothes,” Akira says, folding his arms.

“M’kay.” Iwai doesn’t even twitch.

Akira sighs. Iwai’s concentration is legendary; Akira has on more than one occasion seen him sign for packages without looking up from his paper, signature an incomprehensible squiggle. The delivery drivers seem used to it by now. And Akira can admit that it’s pretty incredible to be the focus of all that attention, to have Iwai’s gaze hot on him as he runs his hand up underneath Akira’s shirt.

It’s less thrilling to be ignored for a collection of plastic gun pieces, but Akira knows a way around that.

He rests one arm on the back of Iwai’s chair - gently; jostling Iwai at this point will only get him snapped at - and leans in, brushing his lips over the corner of Iwai’s jaw, just below his ear.

Iwai’s breath hitches and his hands still.

Akira keeps going, stubble scraping against his lips as he presses kisses down the line of Iwai’s jaw. Iwai draws in a breath and then turns, so that his lips meet Akira’s, warm and firm and moving against his with focused determination.

Iwai chuckles as Akira pulls back. “Feeling neglected?”

Akira shrugs. “The models get to spend all day with you. I’m only here on Tuesdays.”

Iwai laughs and puts the parts in his hands down, pushing his chair back and turning it so he’s facing Akira.

“If you want more hours you can just say so,” he says, putting his hands on Akira’s hips and pulling him down. Akira settles over Iwai’s lap, tipping his head back on a gasp as Iwai’s lips trace up his neck.

“I could make some time on Fridays,” he says, swallowing the noise he makes when Iwai bites down on his ear.

Iwai smiles against his skin. “Fridays it is.”

Ughh fine just let me get it out of my system:

Falsely convicted of assault Akira spends a brutal year in juvenile detention before he’s released back into the world.

Furious as to the shame he’s brought to their family name his parents immediately hand him a bag full of his clothes and a ticket to Tokyo with the express instructions to leave and never come back.

17 going on 18, reeling from what he’s endured, still healing from his year on lock-down, and with no other options, Akira leaves.

With no one waiting for him in Tokyo, no high school willing to touch him, and no money even if they were, Akira has little choice but to try and make his own way.

The last thing Akira expects to happen a few weeks into his new “life” in Tokyo is to stumble into another world filled with shadows and mysterious powers that he barely understands.  Or to get dragged into battle after battle all in the name of stealing corrupt desires and changing hearts.

Life as Joker, the now infamous Phantom Thief, is hard but rewarding in its own way.

But at least he does get his now best friend and partner in crime Morgana out of it all,

That, a small web of connections, and a semi-steady, if dangerous, source of income.

Income that eventually leads him him directly into the path of one Iwai Munehisa.

“Go get your face on,” Lala waves him away.  Which is, of course, an answer all on its own.  “And wear the red number, you know the one.”

“Why?” Akira asks, already pushing himself up off of the stool.

“Don’t play coy with me,” Lala chides.  “Save that for your admirer.  He’ll probably be back tonight you know.  He’s been in every evening this week instead of just on Monday and I know it’s because he’s been looking for you.”

“Stalker,” Akira murmurs, doing his best to ignore the way that bud of curiosity blossoms just a bit more.

“Smitten,” Lala corrects easily enough.  “Deliciously so in my opinion.  Put your best foot forwards and who knows, if you play him and your cards right, you might have some company in that lonely little bed of yours for once.”

As always, your AUs are the best! So how different is Akira's personality in BBB? I imagine he'd be even less willing to trust people, and (if you're not changing it) that Morgana not being human(at least physically) would make it that much easier to feel comfortable around him. And by 'get dragged into' do you mean by the rest of the group? Or did that not happen because Akira wasn't there? And if it did happen, what's changed in the group dynamics to cover for Akira's absence?

Oh yeah you know me so of course Akira’s gonna be a lot less willing to trust.

He’s still kind and helpful and the like but he’s skittish now too.

He accidentally stumbles into the Metaverse but because of the changes he does it without meeting Ryuji that day.  So he ends up there alone and ends up meeting Morgana and then things snowball.  Before he knows it he’s agreed to help Morgana and they’ve teamed up to go after distorted desires and steal corrupted hearts like Kamoshida’s.

He still meets the gang but because of Akira’s choices they don’t awaken persona like they do in canon.

As a result of all of that Akira and Morgana are a lot closer than they were even in canon because it’s basically them against the world.  And they’re both a great deal stronger early on because he and Morgana are pretty much running the Phantom Thief gig (though it’s a lot more subtle than in canon) on their own and thus have had to get even better even faster than they did in canon.

How do Akira and Iwai meet? Is it similar to canon or is it completely different? And is Iwai's backstory changed at all?

I’m thinking a mix up of canon elements and new.

Like Akira has pretty much nothing to his name when he makes it to Tokyo and no one waiting for him so he has to find a place to stay. Sleeping in alleys and on benches won’t last him long after all.

It’s his rare good luck that he runs into Lala-chan one day out and about and when he does her a good turn she takes him in, offers him use of the small apartment just above Crossroads for a ridiculously low price and a promise to help out in the bar on occasion.

Akira, of course, jumps at the offer.  Even lets her dress him up on occasion because, hell, if all else he kind of likes the dresses and if something so simple can help Lala-chan’s business then he’s obviously going to do it.

It’s while he’s working at Crossroads that he gets his first glimpse of Iwai but it’s at a distance.  Iwai tends to sit in the back corner, nursing sake or beer that Lala-chan always brings to him personally.

Akira thinks he feels his eyes on him more often than not but he can’t be 100% sure. But beyond one or two occasions Iwai never approaches him and Lala-chan never outright says anything Akira is content to let things lie.

Until, that is, Akira’s normal avenue for weapons dries up and he ends up out and about searching for a new source.

The last thing he’s expecting when a suggestion has him walking into Untouchable is to find himself face to face with Iwai-san himself.

And as for Iwai?

He’s 28 with a questionable past and issues of his own but the last thing he’s expecting to see walk through his door is the pretty little thing with the cat eyes and tousled hair that’s been working at Crossroads these past few months.

The one he can’t help but admit had caught his eye right from the beginning much to his irritation and Lala-chan’s amusement.
