For every 📎 I get in my ask box, I’ll post a thread that I want to do.
Okay, for the first one - ever since I did an aesthetics board for a Sae blog a few days ago, I’ve been really hung up on a Casino AU. I dunno, it was like looking up pictures of gambling tables and slot machines just lit a fire in me and now I just want that. I’m not even really much of a gambler myself and I find casinos fascinating - they’re so colorful and loud and vibrant, they almost feel otherworldly at times. At least, that’s how I sure as hell feel whenever I enter one. Also, there’s a lot of fun possibilities there - maybe your muse is a gambler, maybe they’re a card dealer or a server, heck maybe they’re the person who owns the whole thing. I just think it offers a lot of fun possibilities imho, and with casinos, you sort of get a chance to see a darker side of things.
For the second one, I guess I’d just love to do stuff with older Ryuji - at sixteen years old, I figure that he doesn’t really have a sense of what he wants to do quite yet. I mean, who really has everything figured out at age sixteen?? I think it might be interesting to revisit him a couple years later when he’s older and hopefully a bit wiser - not too much though, still want to have a bit of fun with him. Also, I just think it’d be interesting ‘cause really there are so many potential things I could see him aspiring to be - such as a police offer, a coach, maybe a physical education teacher, maybe his experience with that shithead Kamoshida makes him strive to become a real physical education teacher - one who doesn’t just favor his own team or ogle his students - a real physical education teacher who offers encouragement and maybe a bit of tough love and pushes his students to be their very best and emphasize the benefits of living a healthy lifestyle and looking after your body.
