i know i pitched the idea of a Persona 3 Smosh AU the other day but then i finished The World Ends With You and now i can’t stop thinking about this. yes it would be for literally just me and no one else and i don’t care
would love to know what’s up with silver plated halo!!
So what happened was I got this message:
And then I THOUGHT ABOUT IT 😂
I actually feel like this fic is going to be really sweet and include a lot of the cast. The central romance is new dancer Shayne falling for experienced dancer Tommy. But the whole gang is there. Damien’s a bouncer who helps Shayne get the job. Amanda’s stage persona is basically Cher in Burlesque. Chanse and Court both perform in drag. Spencer’s the manager and jokes that he’s seen so many hot naked people that he’s become completely immune to desire but then he develops an awkward crush on Alex who works the bar. Arasha is throwing her entire bbl in Trevor’s face trying to get him to ask her out and he’s just not getting it.
My characterization for Shayne and Tommy is based a lot on that old Smosh Mouth episode where Tommy says Shayne gives “sexless” energy. So in the fic, Shayne is a good dancer, he’s strong, he’s hot, on the surface he has all the skills he needs, but he hasn’t learned how to actually be enticing. Meanwhile Tommy is almost the opposite. His pole work isn’t nearly as good as Shayne’s, but he just has this aura that draws people in. So Tommy agrees to try and coach Shayne in how to be sexy and…😉
So yeah. For a very new idea, I’m pretty excited about this one. Very tiny snippet under the cut
“Come on man, that’s not fair.”
“It’s quite literally the job,” Tommy says in his typical ‘it’s not my fault that I’m better than you’ voice.
“I’m doing my job,” Shayne insists. “We can’t all be like you.”
“And what’s that supposed to mean?”
Shayne rolls his eyes. As if Tommy doesn’t know. “I mean that it’s easy for you. You don’t even have to try. You think these guys don’t talk?” He thumbs over his shoulder at the rest of the wardrobe room where everyone else is getting ready. “I’ve heard stories. And from those stories, it sounds like you’ve kissed everyone that works here.”
Tommy shrugs like he doesn’t know how to explain it. “That’s gay culture for you.”
“Including Arasha-”
“That was just some friendly pecks.”
“And Amanda.”
“Okay but to be fair we were pretty high.”
“The point is that everyone just naturally—wants you. You can’t expect me to compete with that.”
Tommy’s chin raises, eyes scanning the room over Shayne’s shoulder until he finds what he’s looking for.
“Hey Trev!”
“Yeah dude?”
“You wanna make out with me?”
Trevor lets out a single breathy wheeze that quickly deflates into a panicked looking silence, his head snapping left to right like he’s looking for a hidden camera. Finally he looks back to Tommy.
“Um n-no thank you?”
Tommy looks back to Shayne. “See? I’m not for everyone.”
i’m having the most dead day of work imaginable and so my brain conjured a Smosh AU based on Persona 3 and now i need to be the one to write it because i guarantee the venn diagram of Smosh fans and Persona fans has very little overlap otherwise
the tommy bowe fixation is so hard to explain bc i don’t have a crush on him, i don’t even really wanna BE him, he’s just like. my favorite guy. and that’s the only way i can manage to articulate it😭😭
hi i feel bad reviving this account just to complain but the frequent bi erasure of Angela has been weirding me out for a while and then i just saw this tweet and like
shipping a bi woman with men is weird but shipping a gay man with a woman isn’t?? that’s actually so yucky
i think a part of the reason this account has become a lot less active despite me being just as into Smosh as i’ve always been is because i feel like Tommy’s finally getting the recognition he deserves? which is so fucking awesome?
like, when i first really got into Smosh in August of last year, i barely saw anybody talk about him at all, and since he was my favorite, i made this account to gush about Smosh as a whole yes, but especially Tommy, because it seemed like no one else was. but now they are!!! and it makes me really happy, even if it means i find less reasons to post here :)
