Ryuji Sakamoto

“A trainer who specializes in electric types! He was supposed to start his journey right at eighteen, but wasn't able to due to his leg injury. He grew up with his yamper, which evolved into a boltund a few months into ryuji's recovery; the boltund is his best friend.” - @corvus-ace

[unhingedsquash]

which unfinished fic should I work on based off the last line i wrote before i stopped

This was definitely weird. After the strained cases he and Prosecutor Gavin had gone head to head on, the last thing he expected was persistent requests to get dinner.

Tamaki made a small cheer that sounded close to a whoopie!, but also like a French word he wasn’t familiar with, and Kyoya couldn’t help but chuckle as he stood up and followed the blonde, who was excitedly leading his spectacled friend through his home.

And then punched him in the arm as hard as she could. / “Ow! What the hell?!” / “Alright! Let’s get moving!”

Phoenix smiled fondly, his head lulling to the side to face Edgeworth. “This was very sweet of you. I can’t thank you enough,” he said.

And Joe offered her the biggest, dumbest, happiest grin. It was a cheap arcade keychain, but he felt like it was worth the entire planet. Because Sara Chidouin gave it to him!

[lordichamo]

worsties!

[akechi-stole-my-heart]

truly what ARE you talking about here ryuji. did he just take one look at yusuke and decide despite clear evidence to the contrary re: ann that he was homosexual. or did he just really want to get to tell someone else not to look at his butt cause he's still mad ann said that to him in the last palace. my guy is jumping to so many conclusions just to razz ann. yes yusuke is gay but that is not the point here

2023 Art Summary

Honestly, it's been a good year for my art :>

[houseplant-unicorn]

Screenshot Pride edit!

Ace face paint for Ryuji and Genderqueer hair clips for Ren

[kiaroscuro]

AU time again!! Welcome to the Human Experiments AU

a crossover/fusion between P3 and P4 where Ren was involved in a severe accident that left half of his face severely burned and most of his lower body as well, where Ren underwent experimental surgery to counter the pain and ended up an android after multiple treatments.

Ikutsuki, somehow surviving the events of P3 and endorsed by Shido and his shady government, was given the chance to experiment on children they knew had the Potential, turning them into human Anti-Shadow-Weapon hybrids because he has no access to any of the Kirijo research and items anymore. His experiments are successful on two subjects (Ren and Goro).

Because of the severity of the 'treatments' (i.e. human experimentation), the persona suffer negative feedback as well, though Ikutsuki isn't above torturing the persona either. Arsene's wings have been pinioned, rather inexpertly, for example.

Some more bullet points of this AU, because I do want to maybe write it someday:

Ren's accident was a heavy fire that broke out in his neighborhood; he only got burned because he went in to save his classmate who was still stuck inside

the classmate ends up dying anyways, but his family thanks Ren profusely and end up being almost a second home for him

Ren was fourteen at the time

Ren's burns rendered him almost immobile for a while, and his parents had to sign him up to a big state hospital or something like that

his parents are, as always, shit people and annoyed that Ren got burned 'for nothing'

when a nice-looking man from the government approaches the little clinic Ren is working with and offers his help in an untested-but-absolutely-safe treatment method they sign him up at once

Ren was fifteen then. He becomes a patient at Ikutsuki's clinic after Goro, though they rarely see each other at first, before Ren's treatment ramps up and he has to become an inpatient

at first Ren thinks that all of the weird scifi augmentations actually are to help him until Goro dashes his hopes that they're just as good as human cattle to the Chairman

Somewhere around this time Ren summons Arsene for the first time as well, and they try to flee. Ikutsuki catches them and pinions Arsene as punishment, speeding up Ren's 'treatment' as well

Goro becomes fully augmented and is made to leave

a year later Ren has also been fully augmented, the only human thing about them their brain and nervous system a la Cybermen from Doctor Who. Goro kept lashing out constantly so he's programmed to obey Shido without alternatives, but Ren was smart and started to obey once Ikutsuki started hurting Arsene as well.

Ikutsuki brings in Sophia as a third research subject, a girl who's a paraplegic

with his focus on Sophia, Ren gets ignored, and he manages to plan an escape

he wanted to take Sophia with him, but she was in the middle of her augmentations, and she pleads with him to flee and live a life again

Ren escapes with a promise to come back for Sophia once he's found Goro, and wanders across Tokyo until he runs into Sojiro days later, chassis torn and in dire need of repair

Sojiro, not knowing what Ren is but seeing a kid in need, goes with him to Futaba, because Sojiro might not know what to do with all of those exposed cables, but his daughter Sure Does.

Wakaba is alive because she wasn't needed by Shido bc he has Ikutsuki. She still works in a cognitive research lab with her colleague Maruki, and has access to heavy machinery and metals to close up Ren's chassis. And even more access to metacognitive things to help Arsene

Ren and Arsene stay with the Isshiki-Sakura household while they try to figure out what happened to Goro, accidentally joining the Phantom Thieves along the way and going by 'Akira Kurusu' to avoid being found by Ikutsuki and Shido

[lvndri]

I've gotten so bad about not finishing stuff so here are some of my WIPs

[ID: A set of 7 digital drawings.

the first is of Goro Akechi from Persona 5, one in his detective outfit and one in his third semester indoor outfit. Around him are notes of details the artist adds to his base design- brown contacts in the first, his natural eyes and unconcealed freckles in the second. The latter two details are absent in his detective prince outfit because they are inherited from Masayoshi Shido.

The second drawing is a sketchy, rough drawing of Akira Kurusu, Ann Takamaki, and Ryuji Sakamoto. Each of them are scowling and looking forward.

The third drawing is a sketchy and unfinished drawing of Akira Kurusu. He is smiling and laughing. Small flustered Akechi is seen beside him, wearing Akira'a glasses and looking wide-eyed at Akira.

The fourth drawing is of Akira Kurusu in his Joker uniform. He is on his knees, looking up, his face obscured by hair. His expression is distant and aloof as his hands grasp at a glove on the ground. The words "You couldn't save everyone" are written above him.

The Fifth drawing is of Akechi and a cognitive version of Akira dancing. Akechi is holding the cognitive Akira up, as the fake has just been shot and is bleeding. Akechi smiles sadistically at the dead Akira.

The sixth drawing is of Akechi looking down on the viewer. His expression is distant and cold. His hair is layered and messy and there are bags under his eyes.

The seventh and final drawing is of Simon Blackquill and Athena Cykes from Ace Attorney. The two are in bathing suits; simon is wearing a grey button-up, dark trunks, and a hot pink fannypack. He is wearing sunglasses and has a cocktail umbrella in his mouth instead of the usual hawk feather. Athena is looking excitedly, holding her fists up with a big smile on her face. Her swimsuit is light blue with horizontal stripes. End ID/]

Sharing His Luck - Kamen Rider Geats X Persona 5

Haru planned a surprise birthday party for her boyfriend, which he really liked but an uninvited guest rears his ugly head.

Shoutout to @rainixdra for the brainstorming session we had pushed this fic into existence lol.

A/N: Funny thing, the whole inspiration for this fic was Garnet's line of "This was supposed to be my day" during the Rupphire wedding of Steven Universe... but adding that destroys the flow of the story it got cut.

FFN I Ao3

---------

"Sorry to call you today of all days, Keiwa-kun." A lady apologized to Keiwa as he entered a building.

"It's alright," Keiwa shrugged the apology. "From what I heard, you're understaffed for the whole day, right?" He set his bag down and gave the woman his full attention. "Has anyone taken the kitchen?"

"Unfortunately," The matron nodded. "Would you mind watching the kids? They're still sleeping."

"I won't," Keiwa smiled.

It had been a year since Keiwa and the others had defeated Sueru and the Desire Grand Prix as a whole. It had been a grueling fight, but they won.

In the months since they defeated Sueru: Ace went back to his celebrity life, just modeling for a few brands; Michinaga-san was 'found' by some of his former co-workers and was convinced to return to his old job in the construction business; Neon-chan went on to live in the condominium unit she had bought with his sister but remained in contact with her parents.

And Keiwa found a job in Okumura Foods, specifically its main office.

Everything was peaceful.

Keiwa couldn't ask for anything more if he was being honest.

Before, he'd have wanted – no, he shouldn't be focusing on the past.

Two days from now would be the anniversary of them defeating Sueru. Ace had suggested a fancy dinner at one of the clique hotels but was vetoed almost immediately by Tsumuri-san and Michinaga-san.

As he went inside the orphanage's dining area, he didn't think it was weird for the area to be so dark and empty. The matron did tell him that the children were asleep.

As soon as he turned on the lights he was startled by the sudden loud noise that erupted.

"Happy Birthday!"

Keiwa turned around and saw everyone in front of him holding out a banner that said 'Happy birthday'.

He looked around the room and the dining area was decorated to have a birthday party from the buntings on the ceiling to the balloons that was scattered around the room.

"H-ho-wha-?"

"Looks like our tanuki is speechless." Ace spoke up with a smirk.

"Oh let him compose himself." Neon elbowed the celebrity.

"Happy Birthday, Keiwa-kun," A woman with curly auburn hair approached the birthday boy and kissed his cheeks. "Did you like your surprise?"

"H-haru-chan," Keiwa gulped and composed himself. "D-did you do this?"

"Everyone helped," Haru gestured to the people holding the banner. "Did you like it?"

"Yeah!" Keiwa nodded. "Thank you, thank you."

"Ready Set –" Neon exclaimed.

"Happy Birthday To You!" Everyone in the room began to sing.

As everyone sang the song, Haru pulled Keiwa to the center of the room, where a lone chair was placed. Haru placed him before the chair as the song concluded.

"Happy Birthday, Keiwa." Haru greeted once more before planting a kiss on his lips.

"Thank you, Haru-chan." Keiwa smiled

--------

A lot of things happened since everyone sang happy birthday to Keiwa, that was when a gaggle of children came rushing in, in a hurry to greet their Keiwa-niichan a Happy Birthday.

The kids continued to play games as the adults enjoyed the day and looked after the rowdy children at the same time.

Some of Haru's friends came over and wished him a happy birthday, affirming their threats if he ever hurt her.

"I don't think any of you could even make good on your promises if that ever happened."

"You're right, she'd make you beg for your life," The male blond, Ryuji, shrugged before slinging his arm onto Keiwa's shoulders. "No, seriously man, Haru's life wasn't all rainbows when we met her, I would hate if she'd go back to the way when we met her."

"It's fine, Ryuji-san, Ren-san has already made that clear."

"Man, when will you drop the honorific? "

"But I'm younger than you." Keiwa insisted.

"Don't mind him, Ryuji, Keiwa-kun just like that." Haru chuckled before planting another kiss on her boyfriend's cheeks. "It took me months before he even addressed me as Haru-san."

"Fight with him side by side and he'd drop the honorific in a heartbeat." Ace joined the conversation.

"Fight?" Haru questioned.

"Ace, could you not?" Keiwa groaned. "I don't want anyone to think that I just look for fights."

"But you became one of the most seasoned fighters after you joined," Ace smirked. "Are you saying you regretted joining the fight?"

"No, but I would appreciate it if I get to tell my girlfriend things on my own terms."

"True, if you're worried about keeping the rule of keeping it a secret, you can tell whoever you like, it's not like they can still enforce their rules."

"That is nice to know." Keiwa nodded.

"Dude, you were involved in fights?" Ryuji grinned.

"When you feel ready, Keiwa-kun?" Haru assured before sending a glare at her blond friend.

Sometime later, Keiwa's sister arrived at the venue. She made a beeline towards Keiwa as soon as she saw him and greeted him with a Happy Birthday.

"Did you know that Haru-chan planned a surprise birthday party for me, nee-chan?"

"I did," Sara smiled. "Instead of joining, I decided to be at work today because if I didn't it'd ruin the surprise."

"Thank you, nee-chan." Keiwa hugged his sister, who hugged him back.

--------

"So how's the birthday boy? Did you enjoy the presentation the kids gave to their beloved Keiwa-nii-chan?" Ace smirked as he approached Keiwa.

"Don't tell me, you guys planned this in advance?" Keiwa asked.

"We did," Neon joined in the conversation. "We had to secure the place for this event after all."

"And the matron was all for it, even asked the kids about it."

"Hence the presentation." Keiwa nodded.

"So, how'd you like their presentation?"

"It was really good, as I said to them before." Keiwa smiled.

"They were good." Neon agreed.

"Where's Win-san and Michinaga-san?"

"You're not going to ask where Tsumuri-chan is?"

"I would…"

"She has forgiven you," Ace shook his head. "But she should be arriving later with PunkJack, they volunteered to monitor the place today so that there won't be another incident like XGeats or the one that Na-go and Buffa responded ever happens again."

"Michinaga-san?" Neon inquired this time.

"Buffa felt weird attending your birthday party considering he did end your life once."

"He's feeling weird about it." Keiwa pouted.

"Kinda like you with nee-san." Ace smirked.

"Fine, fine." Keiwa rolled his eyes.

---------

As the party was winding down, the kids tired out from all the activities they did, and a lot of people were starting to pack everything away.

That was when an uninvited guest decided to show his ugly mug. It was someone whom Keiwa was familiar with but not really know.

"Haru, my darling, what are you doing in this disgusting place?" A loud haughty voice was heard. "I heard that you had broken up with that delinquent, Haru, why don't we renew our engagement so we can I make sure your business will prosper."

"This disgusting place, as you call it, Sugimura-san, is the place where people like you throw children like me to steal their inheritance," Haru's amicable demeanor can still be heard despite the heavy words she's uttered. "This orphanage helps make children feel wanted again after people like you discarded them."

"Keiwa-nii-chan, Keiwa-nii-chan," The gaggle of kids who had been outside rushed back to the dining area, surrounding Keiwa. "There's a bad man outside trying to hurt fluffy onee-san!"

"A bad man?" Keiwa raised an eyebrow.

The kids merely nodded.

"Ace?"

"Go, I'll look after them."

While Keiwa knew that his girlfriend could handle the situation, he's witnessed it a few times, her friends from when she was in high school were still around, so he knew she was safe from anyone.

He decided it couldn't hurt to show up and offer support to Haru.

---------

"Years too late for that news, Sugimura," Haru smiled. "Could you please leave, you're upsetting the children."

"Children? These unwanted bastards? Who cares about them?" Sugimura scoffed.

"You're a bad man!" A child from inside the establishment rushed to Sugimura and rushed at the intruding man.

The child pounded on the man's leg as Sugimura sneered.

Sugimura unceremoniously whisked his leg away from the child, causing the child to stumble onto the concrete floor.

"Shut up, you brat." Sugimura growled at the sobbing child.

"Are you so heartless, Sugimura, that you're willing to hurt an innocent child?" Haru couldn't hide the disgust in her voice even if she was still smiling.

"Innocent? You saw what happened, Haru, that child dared to touch me with their dirty hands."

"Does not warrant for to hurt a child, does it?" Keiwa growled.

Keiwa had rushed to the front of the establishment upon learning that a child could be hurt.

"Keiwa-kun, I'm sorry for this."

"It's okay, Haru-chan." Keiwa smiled at his girlfriend before he tended to the hurt child.

"Is that the plebian that you replaced me with?" Sugimura scoffed in disbelief.

"First off, he's not a plebian and secondly, what if he was?" Haru challenged.

"Him of all people? What trash can did you pick this street rat from?" Sugimura sneered.

"Taichi-kun, is anything hurting you?" Keiwa merely ignored the insults coming his way as he tended to the hurt child.

The child continued to sob but he nodded in response to the question.

"We will be talking about what you did earlier, okay?" Keiwa smiled at the child before ruffling his hair.

"I can bring carry him back to the building." A black-haired man offered.

"Please do, Ren-san." Keiwa nodded.

"Boys, let's teach this plebian a lesson of not interacting with people above their stations."

Men in suits suddenly appeared and got a hold of both Keiwa's arms.

"Tycoon." Ace said before nodding.

"Tycoon?" Haru questioned.

Keiwa sighed before he stomped the feet of one of his captors, freeing his right hand in the process, before using it to sock the other guy on the face, freeing his other hand.

"Wha-"

Sugimura was speechless at what happened. The biggest bodies he brought in order to intimidate the delinquent and Haru's high school were easily brought down by some no-name nobody.

"For real?! When Ace said that you fought, he wasn't kidding." Ryuji whistled.

"You can't do that! This is assault."

"I believe what you did, Sugimura-san was assault, Sakurai-kun merely defended himself." A black-haired woman stepped forward. "Make no mistake, had Sakurai-kun not fought back, I would have made arrests here and now."

"Mako-chan."

"What are you, a cop?"

"Not yet but Section 213 of the Code of Criminal Procedure allows anyone from civilians to firefighters witnessing any crime in progress to make an arrest." Makoto stated.

"Section 220 talks about illegal imprisonment." Sugimura smirked.

"Those would only apply to defamation accidental injury, illegal assembly, and the like," Makoto responded.

"Shouldn't you be arresting him, then?" Sugimura pointed at Keiwa.

"Why? He simply defended himself after you had your men assault him."

"Sugimura-san, was it?" Keiwa let out a long breath. "I suggest you take your men and get away from this establishment." Keiwa glared at Sugimura as he cracked his fingers with his thumb.

"Okay, this has gone on long enough." Ace showed his face to the trespassing group.

"You know, I don't really like it if anyone hurts my friends." Neon stood beside Ace.

"I assume you know us judging from how pale you look right now." Ace spoke.

"I think I have some capital to spend and buy the company out from you, Sugimuira," Neon smiled.

"That's a good idea, maybe he'll learn some humility."

"So I suggest before I really call someone to buy your company's stocks and demote you to janitor." Neon glared at the man.

Sugimura gulped before he scampered off to who knows where.

As soon as Sugimura left, Sara immediately fussed over her brother. She checked if her brother was hurt by the men Sugimura used to attempt to cause an injury to him.

Keiwa had reassured his sister that he was fine.

As soon as Sara was satisfied, Keiwa was approached by Ryuji who simply put an arm over his shoulders, grinning.

"I totally did not expect you to beat up Sugimura's men, I was about to rush in myself."

"Yeah well, if you have to fight for your life for a whole year, you learn a thing or two about defending yourself." Keiwa shrugged.

"It was that bad, huh?"

"It's all in the past." Keiwa smiled.

"Ryuji, can I talk to Keiwa-kun?"

"Go right ahead, I need to find Renren anyway." Ryuji grinned as he offered his seat to Haru.

"I'm sorry you had to be introduced to him on your special day." Haru apologized for what happened.

"It's fine, I would have been fine to let you handle him and it looked like you could have handled him but he went and hurt a child."

"Understandable." Haru nodded.

"Were you hurt?"

"My hand hurt a little after I punched that one guy flat," Keiwa chuckled. "Other than that, I'm fine."

-------

It came time for Keiwa to leave the orphanage with Haru. They had just succeeded in making every child sleep for the night after the whole afternoon party they had.

"I'm sorry you had to meet Sugimura like that." Haru apologized to the matron of the orphanage.

"Think nothing of it, it's a good thing you have a dependable boyfriend, huh?" The matron teased.

Keiwa and Haru blushed at the remark.

"Obaa-san!"

"You both should be off, it's getting later."

"Thank you for the surprise, obaa-san."

"Anything for you, Keiwa-kun." The matron smiled.

As Keiwa and Haru left the orphanage, Haru looked at her boyfriend.

"Did you like your birthday surprise, Keiwa-kun?"

"I did, Haru-chan, I really did," Keiwa kissed Haru's cheek. "Thank you."

"You're welcome."

"Where did you get the idea to surprise me?"

"It was Neon-chan's idea," Haru revealed. "She told me that she has always wanted to attend a surprise birthday party, and I must admit, I do too."

"That's understandable."

"It was Sara-san who suggested that we use the orphanage you volunteer your time to as the venue."

"Typical nee-chan," Keiwa gave a fond smile. "She knows me too well."

"She mentioned how you'd rather have a birthday party at the orphanage rather than in a private venue so that the kids could also enjoy your special day."

"Yeah," Keiwa nodded. "I know the feeling of losing parents, I feel so lucky that nee-chan was there to support me and I really like to share the luck I enjoyed with them."

"That's so sweet, Keiwa-kun."

"I really love the surprise you gave me, Haru-chan." Keiwa cupped Haru's face. "And I've got a surprise of my own for you."

Keiwa kissed Haru on the lips, which Haru reciprocated.

"Did you have a Happy Birthday?"

"I did"

The couple resumed kissing under the moonlight.

------

A/N: Haru X Keiwa is a ship that's really out there lol! But I kinda love it.
