ok, in all seriousness- this is a super low-stress blog! here to have fun and vibe!

full-time student, writing my thesis, fluctuating activity... etc. etc. you get it 😭 i manage three other blogs, as well, so i'll hop around!

there's no need to be super (or at all) familiar with persona's story to interact- i love crossovers and will happily disregard canon in favor of a dynamic!

au galore... give them to me... the multiverse is ours fr

i'll add a little about section later (maybe... maybe) but honestly as far as general info goes you're just as well-off giving the wiki a skim or asking me- as for any important divergencies/headcanons about akira, i'll be sure to post about them separately!

message me and let's be friends! 😚

“ wow, ” he deadpans in his usual droll cadence, as if addressing the fluctuating metropolitan weather and not the confession precursor he just served goro alongside his very elaborate coffee order, “ the detective prince strikes again, busting the case wide open. ” it’s just the two of them this time around: the boss is off on an errand to the nearest pharmacy before closing, searching for some ultra-specific medicine for the mystery bug futaba happened to catch, likely at the arcade, and akira’s not expecting him back for at least another thirty minutes. even mona’s technically absent, blessedly asleep upstairs, and it’s precisely these coinciding absences that prompted akira’s proposition in the first place. he never would’ve gotten away with being this brazenly overt, otherwise. doubts goro would’ve even acknowledged it.

“ i wasn’t sure if you were picking up my hints. so you were just ignoring me? ” if it’s goro’s intent to put him off with what must be mockery at this point, they find themselves in a very unfortunate predicament. “ i’m anticipating a hefty tip as emotional recompense. ”

❛ you want me to make you some coffee? ❜ ^^

“ mm… ” akira has his phone in his hand, net loaded on an article on the recent bike thefts in yongen-jaya (something to pass the time in the quiet of goro’s apartment), and doesn’t lift his head until several seconds have passed. he blinks, languid, a cat’s moniker, and inclines his head; not a nod, but rather acknowledgement. “ that depends. do you have any cute mugs? ”

before he started going to school, the adults around him (his extended family, mostly— his parents never entertained it) had this game they liked to play where they pretended akira could read their minds. he never understood it then, couldn’t find the humor in it even as his aunties tucked spilling laughter behind the curtains of their palms like it was some big, elaborate undertaking, but he never particularly cared to, either. these days, whenever he catches his own gaze in any semi-clear reflection and lingers to examine it, their mean-spirited snickering from back then is much less of a mystery.

he meets goro’s eyes across the room from his seat on the couch and ponders the stories goro hasn’t told him yet; wonders if goro was able to hide himself away or if the adults around him looked at him like they used to look at akira. “ and can i watch you make it? i’m kind of curious about your technique. ”

the world should have protected you, yet you have been asked to protect it. what an honor. what an injustice.
