i cant believe i wasn't following u b4,,,,,ive just been silently scrolling through your blog for like a solid YEAR and just haven't even noticed????? n e ways what are tha thoughts on literally anyone in p4 being trans bc i live for that 🎤

the way my brain decided that this was asking for pronoun headcanons and did not reread to make sure that was what you were asking before drawing all of this…... well anyways

[lunamura]

since he listens to the Persona 3 soundtrack, do you think Yosuke listened to When The Moon's Reaching Out Stars a lot? i think it fits him pretty well:

I never felt like, so miserable, I never felt like thinking this will last forever

is basically the story of Yosuke's life, especially during the time he first moved to Inaba

Baby, stay with me

could be his growing anxieties during the time where Saki is missing but it isn't confirmed that she's dead

Just dialing your number, failing to press the last two

come on, this is SUCH a Yosuke thing to do. whether it be his old friends who don't text him anymore or Saki, he would ABSOLUTELY do this at *least* once

If you hold me tight, feeling your heartbeat so close

maybe him and Saki hugging at the riverbank, a respite and a comforting high before the devastating low of

Will this last long?

in front of the telephone pole where Saki's body was found, because it did, in fact, not last long

ROSS YOURE GOING TO DESTROY ME/VVPOS

YOSUKE……..SCREAMS AND CRIES AND SCREAMS AND CRIES……whenever I listen to Moons Reaching Out now I will Forever associate it with him oh my god

3 times Yosuke feels he doesn’t belong and 1 time he knows he does 

Yosuke is 12 and living in Tatsumi Port when he realises. It hits him like a punch to the gut, except he thinks a punch would be better in this scenario. 

He realises that he doesn’t belong in this group, all rich and snobbish and definitely shunning him. None of them spare even a second glance as he slinks away, resolving to find the nearest pay phone that’d be still operating at this time of night. 

Eventually he makes a collect call to his mom begging for her forgiveness and quickly explaining that he’d lost track of time before catching the last monorail to the station by his house. His “friends” don’t call. They don’t ask where he’d gone at school the next day. They don’t care, and Yosuke knows. So he stops caring about them.

2. Yosuke is 14 and tired. He’s stopped attending school, too busy preparing to move to a whole new place halfway across the country. Inaba, his mom told him. He’s too tired to put up a fuss about moving. 

His “friends” from school still don’t call. They don’t drop by to offer help with packing. They don’t talk to him when they see him around town. 

His “friends” aren’t really his friends. He knows this. But that doesn’t stop it from stinging any less. He can’t count how many things he told them, how many secrets he’d whispered in the darkness of sleepovers, unaware that he was the only one really saying anything. 

But they also held him when he cried, they listened when he ranted about his dad, they stopped him from punching things when he became angry. 

Silver lining, Yosuke supposes. 

3. Yosuke is 15, and still tired. If anything, it seems to have gotten worse. His bones ache when he moves, his eyes feel heavy with a lead weight he doesn’t remember attaching to them. But his heart has been encased in concrete. 

Chie and Yukiko are nice, absolutely. But he doesn’t mesh with them like they mesh with each other. Because having lived here in Inaba for about a year now, he’s still the school’s exotic attraction. A city boy in a backwaters high school, with slender, gangly limbs and a face that he’d heard other boys describe as “girlish.” 

It’s unfair, really, how some people can blend so well with everyone, while he can barely blend with himself. Music is his only comfort, as pathetic as that is. The blaring from his headphones helps him turn his attention away from what’s bad in his life, and focus on what’s good. Like Chie and Yukiko not constantly making fun of him for how he looks. 

There are good and bad aspects about everywhere, Yosuke has figured out. Chie and Yukiko are good aspects, definitely. 

Yosuke is 17 and living in Inaba when he realises. It hits him like a punch to the gut, except he thinks a punch would be better in this scenario. 

He walks in a field outside Inaba, shoes discarded behind a bush by the roadside. The sky above a deep, dark blue, with black clouds rolling by lazily. A cool breeze drifts by in the warm air, carrying the sweet scent of summer and ruffling his hair. 

Beside him walks Yu Narukami, his partner and best friend. It’s been a year since the Inaba murders were solved, by them no less, and now Yu is back, and Yosuke feels gobsmacked by how much his partner has changed. 

Yu is taller now, the baby fat in his cheeks burned away to make way for handsome features. He’s taller now- Yosuke has to look up to see that Yu’s grey eyes are darker now, more stormy than steely, and his hair has grown out a bit, though it remains the soft grey it was last year. Yosuke finds that the urge to card his fingers through it has only gotten stronger as time passed. 

“Yosuke. What would you say...” Yu begins, turning his head to look at Yosuke. They both stop walking. The sky turns even darker, and Yosuke breathes in the sweet air, listens to the cicadas in his ear. 

“If I told you that my parents are letting me stay in Inaba for this school year, too?” 

Yosuke feels like he’s been punched in the gut twice. Once because his best friend is staying here again, his best friend will be within arm’s reach once again. 

Twice because Yosuke realises he likes Yu as more than just a best friend. 

It’s a terrifying realisation. But it’s one he welcomes. He knows where his place in the world is. He’s known it ever since Yu placed himself in their lives, made himself comfortable in the spaces of their hearts and made residency in Yosuke’s head, whispering soft things that make way for yearning that makes his entire body ache. 

His place is at Yu’s side, so that’s where he places himself. Hugs his partner so tight he hears bones popping into place, slots himself comfortably in the space between Yu’s arm and side, resting his head on Yu’s shoulder. The fabric of his shirt is soft and comfortable, and Yosuke makes a mental note to steal it from his partner the next time he spends the night. 

“I’d welcome you home, partner.” 

holy shit gay people real………………..

[sunset-bridge]

hellow kibou :) i played like 10 minutes of p4 the other day

HI FAE . noooooo wayyy this is not true this is ai generated this is NOT happening !!!!!! play moreee

[petorahs]

i'm just gonna: ☀️ anon. There.

Anyway: I can see where you're coming from and like I said it has been forever since I played the Answer and I don't /hate/ it. But I guess I always had an issue with Yukari, because she seemed to me needlessly mean to others sometimes? Like she was right and others are wrong so its fine if she can be mean? But that is just what I /remember/. And while yeah, characters are allowed to be mean and not perfect and allways kind, especially female characters, because GOD FORBID women do anything- it also doesn't mean I have to LIKE her. I guess it's because to me Yukari felt like someone who would unironically call someone having fun "cringe", which for me personally is a dealbreaker. But Persona ALWAYS had this issue with having the male bestie be the buttmonkey of jokes, some kind of pervert and dunked on by the other characters and Junpei is still having it the best?? (Yosuke, Ryuji, you boys deserved so so much better).

In any case, I guess I couldnt give her as much leeway or credit because her personality didn't really mesh with me. But now being older I also think that it is BECAUSE of the writing. Persona Games have all extremely low points and extreme high points. The entire first palace is great in persona 5, Persona 4s social links with the Dojima family are really gripping and persona 3 is still one of my faves because it just came at the very right time in my life. (Who would've thought that a game about DEATH as its core theme would SAVE me.) But the writing is not always very consistent and the characters really suffer for it, usually for very stupid reasons like """""humor""""". I guess I am just trying to say that I get what you mean, but Yukari is just not my fave so I guess it is easier for me to lose patience. Like there are characters I'd go to war for in the persona series, so its easier for me to see the GOOD writing aspects, while others might greatly dislike them and therefore have a far easier time seeing the writing from more negative perspectives.

But your analysis has really given me some food for thought. I will definitely try to pay it more attention on a replay!

Oh ONE MORE THING!!!

It always felt like Yukari was pushed as a sort of "main love interest" which always kinda felt off to me when persona games do that. maybe its because i am gay and therefore see myself more representated by same sex couples/queer couples, maybe its because the persona developers believe men and women cant just be friends it always has to be something romantic, maybe its because the romantic writing always seemed forced and reliant on little events like in a romance shoujo manga- idk, but that was also something that rubbed me the wrong way. But that has been issues in P3-P5 throughout. And i feel like p3 got it the worst??? At least in later games you could opt for just a friendship even tho the writing still made it APPARENT THAT THE GIRLS ARE IN LOVE WITH YOU SPECIAL BOY!!! Sorry Yukari, that's not really your fault, thats a systemic fault.

yoo valid as hell though i get wym. if the character isnt for you then they arent for you and again, im not here to convince you otherwise of anything!

when you say it like that i can see why yukari's a bit of a mixed bag. i still like her tho she kinda a baddie and as a guy i like when girls are kinda mean to me so agree to disagree

ah yes the persona lovers arcana girl suffering from pushed "main love interest" syndrome.. i havent played any other aside from p3 and p5 but i heard rise gets worse. but like you said it is a systemic fault. to be real with you none of the romance options in p3 really enticed me despite 3 being hailed as ""the best dating sim"" out of all three modern games. maybe i just need to play portable. or be able to romance ryoji as makoto lmaoo (i saw a screenshot with ryoji saying he'd like you regardless of gender and. 😭 thanks for nothing i guess atlus?)

hard agree on the persona series as a whole having a tendency of doing something really good but then!!........ not. sticking the landing at all. theres so much to be said about it god these games are a hot mess on average its funny. as much as i adooore it, p3's pacing was so ass that i got severe tonal whiplash on oct 4. couldnt even begin to grieve cause i was so shocked

if you ever replay the answer (which. godspeed to you thats a whole grindfest i wouldnt wish on my worse enemy) i hope youre able to have fun and find new things about it to like! overall we can agree that its good so theres that. talk to you soon o7

[randoimago]

Hihi I lived/loved your Yosuke Hanamura and Akira Kurusu drabbles!! Could I can request a prompt of “i’ve been flirting with you for the last six months, thanks for noticing.” with either Akira Kurusu(p5( or Yosuke Hanamura [pick the easiest one to write no worries!] With a very dense reader who like their best friend?

“i’ve been flirting with you for the last six months, thanks for noticing.”

Fandom: Persona 5

Character(s): Akira Kurusu, Yosuke Hanamura

Type of Request: Headcanons

Note(s): Akira's social rank with you is just glitching because of the obliviousness 😂

I also love them both so why not both.

Yosuke

It's so obvious to everyone how much he likes you. Like he stopped flirting and commenting on other people because he wants you to finally notice the words he's been saying to you. His patience is wearing thin and he's honestly kind of afraid that you aren't saying anything about his flirting because you don't feel the same and are trying to save his feelings.

Eventually he just flat out says "I've been flirting with you for the last six months, thanks for noticing" with some sarcasm but also exasperation because S/O how can you be so oblivious? Feels like a huge weight was taken off of him when you say you like him too.

Honestly, he's just on cloud nine when you do finally become his S/O and start dating. He does his best to be the absolute loving boyfriend to you. He still makes comments and flirts, but he gets a bit shyer now that you two are actually dating. Still, he likes seeing the smile on your face when you actually understand he's flirting.

Akira

He's not subtle with his flirting. Constantly drops hints and tells you how cute you look even if you think you look like a slob (you're his slob). You get all kinds of presents from him and lots of winks and cheeky compliments. Yet you still haven't figured it out, it's kind of amusing to him.

One day you suddenly realize a pick-up line or something and ask him if it was a flirt, which causes him to chuckle and say "I've been flirting with you for the last six months, thanks for noticing" with a grin as you start putting the pieces together.

While he acts amused but is relieved that you did notice and you two can start dating because he was ready to just tell you his feelings straight up. Gladly pulls you into a hug (if you let him) and says that he'll flirt even more just so you don't miss out on anything else.

[prrtnrr]

Souji: I have the feeling... we're being watched. Yosuke: hhmmm? oh, more young out-of-towners? whatever we can just go home, teddies not there rn either Souji: Teddie's closing tonight, right? Yosuke: yea i traded shifts with him, thanks to chie, so we have a teddie-less place for abouuut 4 hours if we're lucky Souji: You planned ahead? Yosuke: yea, im thinking u cook us dinner, we watch something on the couch, and now i dont have to worry about "wheres a not gay place to put my hands?" with ur consent of course Souji: I'll allow that.

<< Prev | First | End >>

[taldigi]

They're talking about living together after highschool and Yosuke's talking about just looking forward to Yu's homemade cooking all the time. Which leads to housewife jokes, of course, which is fine bc their friends agree, think it's funny too so it isn't weird. And then Yu starts joking that he should be Yu Hanamura then. And that's. That's fine. Weird, but Yu's weird and that's just how he is, and Yosuke wouldn't change that. And it makes him feel—well it doesn't upset him. The first time he hears it his brain kind of short circuits maybe but haha y'know it's just cuz it's so. Weird. And every time after it makes him feel kinda warm and well ha obviously he's just happy his partner feels comfortable enough to joke about something like that with him! Obviously!!!

One day when he's a bit older and wiser and living with his boyfriend he'll think a bit more about family, and how Yu hadn't really had that before Inaba. And he'll just kind of thoughtfully ask if he really wants to be Yu Hanamura. He won't understand why it's so quiet though, not until he turns to look at his partner in the middle of some mundane task, like reading a book or doing the dishes, and sees him looking suddenly shocked for some reason, like. Like his best friend lounging on the couch just broke the silence with a marriage proposal shocked. And then Yosuke would realize it really sounded like he was proposing just then which is crazy because it's not like—they can't even, not legally anyway—but well they could always go overseas, but—but WHAT is he talking about, talking because his thoughts are just kind of spilling out of his mouth and he can't stop it and he feels so hot in the face but then Yu is laughing, and that's just about the best sound in the world. So then they're both laughing and smiling and Yu's looks more like a smirk now and he's moving closer but his eyes are so fond and sincere and he just says

"Yes"

:: h&l boys being with their drunk s/o for the first time ::

pairings: fujio hanaoka, tsukasa takajo, yosuke todoroki, yuken odajima, yasushi nishikawa x fem reader

FUJIO ✧.*

it warmed his heart seeing you made a fond friendship with all his friends. you were new yet so significantly important to his life so of course he wanted you to get along with all his people and now you dis it so naturally. everyone liked you to the point you were get comfortable so quickly while chatting and drinking alcohol with them. fujio didn't know you can drink so tonight he was quieter than usual to watch you got tipsy while actively interacting with his childhood friends because it's too fascinating to him.

“fujio…” you turned to him with your flushed red cheeks.

“yes?” he responded.

you didn't answered right away. you were focus on his face then a hand landed smoothly on the back of his neck. “i'm happy with you.”

he beamed. he didn't know how to respond to that so he just look at you with a surprise look while his heart was ready to blown up.

“i want to stay here all night but why's my head so dizzy?” you placed your head on your palm to stay still. your other hand playing with his ear absentmindedly.

he finally replied with a chuckle. “you can't stay here all night. let's go home, it's already late.”

“but you haven't drink a bit?” you protested, handing a glass of beer to your boyfriend.

he squeezed your cheek excitedly. “i'm good.” he said giggly. you felt your head keep spinning then your forehead fall perfectly on his shoulder, inviting a laughter from madoka. “GIRL, YOU LOSE!!! FUJIO YOUR GIRLFRIEND JUST LOST!!!” she said extremely drunk.

fujio sighed to the rest of the guys. “i'm going.” he said before placing you on his back, ready to take you home.

TSUKASA ✧.*

“you drink too much.” he warned you. you glanced at him with disapproval and a pout on your lips.

“i'm fine.” you replied while lying on your stomach, eyes back on the papers in front of you.

“but you have a pre-test tomorrow,”

you laughed, “this is my pre-test y'know.” then continue to take a sip of your drink to accompany you studying tonight.

he copied your position. “you could just ask me then drink these cans.” tsukasa ran his fingers through your hair softly.

you flipped your body to lay on your back then you covered your face with both of your hands. he could still hear you sobbing beside him. “why can't i go through this test peacefully? why can't my head absorb things easily like most of people do? why i feel like i know nothing about these things? why…” you started to ramble then looked at him with so much anger on your face.

he knew you so frustrated lately, that's why he decided to come to your house then he found you barely sober on the floor with papers and beer cans everywhere. it was the first time he saw you cried and drunk. too surprising to him to process.

he helped you sit then he started to rub your back in up-down motion. “cry. let it out.” he said. in a split second he could feel his body being pulled in and you cried drunkly on his neck, hugging him tightly.

“thank you,” you said. he nodded while patting your hair and back. “anything for you. just ask me if you need anything.”

silence.

he felt your breating evenly which meant you were asleep. “hey?” he called.

“you're body is so sweet-scented, it's comfy.” oh, you may regret this tomorrow because it was completely not you at all.

tsukasa chuckled. “okay, then.”

TODOROKI ✧.*

he was hanging out with you and his oya friend. when he received a call from his parent that he needed to handle a few things for a bit. “you can go. i'm fine here, really. they are my friends too.” you tried your best to convince him that you were okay with fujio, nakagoshi, yasushi, kiyoshi, tsuji, and shibaman while he was away.

“yeah, she's right. you don't need to worry about nothing.” yasushi spoke making todoroki's gaze switch to him.

“it won't take more than an hour i promise. don't get too drunk.” he said before you nodded and he left. so there were only you and the idiots, and you agreed to play beer pong with them. you were pretty sure it wouldn't be too difficult since you could drink quite well. in the middle of the game, they started to realize that your shooting was good, you rarely threw the ball away. then the opposite team started to rearrange their strategy to caught up your team's score. you've got tipsy but the games had an endless round until kiyoshi passed out beside you.

you snorted, “poor you, kiyo-kiyooo!” then laughed maniacally. you sat on the sofa when tsuji lit his cigarette. you felt your head too dizzy to worked but the view of a drunk guy smoking beside you intrigued you so much that you decided to try the nicotine too. so you pulled out a cigarette unconsciously and lit it up while sucking on it carefully.

“i shouldn't leave you with these jerks.” the love of your life showed up and snatched the nicotine between your lips.

“baby!” you exclaimed cheerfully and put your arms around his neck. completely distracted.

“why don't you listen to me?” he hissed.

you frowned. “me? not listening? never! i've never not listening to you in my life.” you put your head on his shoulder, clingy. “i'm just… sleepy.” then you pecked his neck.

he rolled his eyes and tightened his hand on your waist. “we're going home.” he said, slightly mad but couldn't ignore the way your warm breath fanned his side neck.

YUKEN ✧.*

“can i talk to my boyfriend?” the right side of your face lying on the table. you eyed your boyfriend, who was sitting next to you.

“you can. what do you want to talk about?” yuken dropped the glass he'd been holding onto the table then put his palm under your cheek so it wouldn't get sore. he was smiling slightly looking at adorable view of you like this.

“honestly, i didn't want to go on the triple date either.” you started. “i love to be like this. just with you.”

yuken laughed at your cute confession. you both were at a small shop near the restaurant you previously visited for a triple date your boyfriend initially refused to come to. but you said it just for once and you spent days to persuading him to come, so he agreed.

“i was in denial of it but today the proof was in front of my eyes. i can't deny that i only get comfortable with you now.”

he smirked as he feel an ego boost. he thought he made a genius decision to drink with you. your relationship was love-hate so that was the first time you were so honest about your feeling.

“sorry to forced you to come to that date.”

he caressed your hair. “it's fine. i can finally know about you more because of that damn date.” he grinned. “i'll plan us a proper date for next week.”

you giggled. “oh, really? will you?” you asked doubtedly.

“it will be the best date ever and you need to give me a reward if i succeed.”

you held his hand with both of yours. “deal.” and you didn't let go of his hand afterward.

he noticed that you were more touchy when you were drunk and it was kinda alarming because he wouldn't let you drink without him.

you stared straight at his lips when he was going to speak. “okay, then. we'll see.” he tried to let go of his hand from you slowly to down his tequila but your movement restrained him.

you quickly lift your head and approached his, placing a gentle kiss on his mouth for a few seconds.

“your lips are flirting with me.” you blurted out.

yuken remained frozen for a while then he stood up and carried your body like a sack on his shoulder. he smirked, “that's not fair you drunkenly doing that in public. let's go home.”

YASUSHI ✧.*

it was almost midnight when he received a call from an unknown number. he wanted to ignore it but he remember you were out drinking with your friends, so he picked up quickly. a deafening noise entered his ear.

“hello, is it—”

“where is my girlfriend?” he cut. fast. his body was ready to sprint to wherever you were.

“s-she is drunk—can you pick her up? i'll send the location.”

he hung up then grabbed his jacket and shoes to head to your location—luckily it wasn't that far.

he almost got there when he saw a girl sitting on the ground—face down and nearly passed out… or maybe sleeping? it was you.

“babe? why are you—you okay? babe? how can—” too many question filled his brain. you opened your glazed eyes after hearing a familiar voice.

“hi,” you greeted happily. you placed hands on his arms to support your body to pecked his cheek. a wide smile appeared after the sudden action.

“babe—”

“i had a good night,” you grinned. “you're so pretty by the way.” his cheek and ear turned red at the same time. it wasn't a good timing but who could ignore compliment from the prettiest girl on earth?

“thanks but how can you end up here? where are your friends? you said you're going with the girls, right?”

your eyes closed but the smile didn't seem to fade anytime soon. “they're going home… maybe?”

“what do you mean maybe?” you place a forefinger on his lips. “shut up. my head's noisy.”

he groaned to himself. “i swear i'll beat them tomorrow.” you frowned. “they are my friends—girls—you can't.”

“okay then i'll punch their boyfriend?”

you laughed. “stop, you feral kid.”

he sighed heavily. “let's go home you need to wash yourself.” he swore he won't let you out drinking again without him.

[nkn0va]

Request for Chie, Yukiko, Rise, and Naoto where they have a best friends to lovers relationship with their S/O. I'm talking about Yu and Yosuke levels of friendship. Please and thank you.

Ouch...almost two months...murdered motivation sucks...

-Chie first met you back in middle school. Your mutual love of martial arts movies led you to becoming fast friends, even though she was much more... enthusiastic than you were. You really just liked watch people fighting but Chie took it to the extreme.

-Not that you minded by any means of course, you looked up and admired her passion and drive. When you two met Yukiko as you entered high school you quickly became the glue holding the three of you together.

-It wasn't long before Yukiko started shipping the two of you together. Your dynamic just really struck a chord with her, she couldn't really describe it. As the Investigation team is formed and more people join, they start sharing the same sentiment.

-It never really occurred to Chie, mostly because she's not exactly a wise sage, but it certainly at least crossed your mind once or twice. Being around her just felt so...natural. It sort of felt like you were already romantically involved.

-It's after your close encounter with death when you caught the true culprit of the murders that you realized you had to do something or nothing would happen. It got you thinking on your own mortality and the realization that if you wanted to see change in your short life, you needed to make it happen yourself.

-As soon as you did work up the courage to confess your real feelings, Chie immediately breathes a sigh of relief, both at the fact that you felt the same she did and that she didn't need to take initiative herself anymore.

-Truthfully, not much changes People were teasing you about being in a relationship already for a reason. But there is that extra bit of tension when you're together. But it's the good kind.

-Your parents moved to Inaba when you were a child, and naturally you had to go along with them. While you were waiting for furniture to be moved into the new place you all went exploring and ended up at the Amagi Inn everyone was seemingly talking about.

-While you're looking around for things to do, you meet a girl your age who you learn is the daughter of the owners and you become friends pretty quickly.

-You're the first to find out and worry when Yukiko goes missing during your second year of high school. Once you figure out that Chie, Yosuke, and the new transfer student have found out where she is and they're planning to save her, you quickly assert yourself into the group, no room for negotiation.

-You lowkey lead the charge, leadership from Yu be damned. You're not letting anything happen to Yukiko as long as you still draw breath.

-Once you confront Yukiko's Shadow you go pretty much into overdrive. If her Shadow wasn't as strong as it was you would've thrown hands with it personally, even if you were weak to Fire skills after awakening your Persona.

-You barely manage to slip by and get Yukiko out safely after she's able to accept her Shadow. Something's still bothering you, though. The way her Shadow called you her prince, coming to save her.

-Upon questioning her, she suddenly gets rather nervous, but eventually confesses that she'd had feeling for you for some time now. You were able to act normal around her, supporting her no matter what.

-And you'd still stick by her no matter what. But this time, as her S/O.

-You were shopping one day in Junes when a girl your age quickly approached you, asking you to help her hide. Not really knowing what else to do when put in such a situation out of nowhere, you complied.

-After the surprisingly large crowd that came out of nowhere left, she breathed a sigh of relief and introduced herself as THE Risette, having no choice now. To her surprise though, you weren't a rabid fan. Yeah you'd heard of her, but had no interest in her status.

-Needless to say this came as quite a shock to her, but it also came with a huge opportunity. the opportunity to make a real, genuine friend without needing to worry about it going south because of her fame.

-So that's exactly what she did. You were keeping out of public eye as much as possible so people didn't catch on to your repeated plots in hiding her whenever the two of you went out, doing normal teenager things and growing closer.

-The feeling of security, of being able to be a normal person around you was something Rise didn't want to lose. Someone she could actually be Rise with, not Risette.

-The moment she knew she wanted you as an S/O, she made that clear immediately. And of course you couldn't say no to such an infectiously energetic, upbeat lady.

-Your dad was in the Inaba police force, he had been for quite a while. You accompanied him to the station one day, and for a change, actually found someone your age.

-An androgynous young man, claiming to be a student detective brought on to help solve the recent murder cases. You ask if you can help any, you did at least pick up a couple things from your old man. He said he'd get back to you if he ever needed anything and thanked you for the offer.

-It's not long before this new acquaintance, Naoto, does in fact get back to you. You two go out somewhere to eat and discuss/speculate about the case. Naoto however quickly became drawn to you, somehow, and the you ended up hanging out more casually, slowly but surely.

-Naoto in a twist of fate, however, ended up going missing as well like a few other people have. You were worrying for days about whether or not everything was alright, worried another body would be added to the count.

-Miraculously, and much to your relief, he ends up safe and sound, though saying there was a big secret to reveal. Naoto was actually...a woman.

-After listening to his- er... her reasoning for the disguise, you completely understand why it was done, much to her relief. You don't judge her for it.

-Once the secret's out, she opens up much more than before, and soon it's not long before a different kind of feeling between you two starts to develop. Surprisingly, she's the one to confess first. After confronting her Shadow, she realized she needed to be true to herself more, thought you don't need to know about the whole world inside the TV deal.

-She's inexperienced, but she's trying. It takes her a while to accept the fact you appreciated her for her, but the idea of calling you her S/O definitely wasn't one she was against.

hihi quinn!!! did you have fun at the con?

HI AXELLL!! I did I did :3 I was at fanexpo this Saturday

Admittedly I kinda wasn’t as Into It as the past few years (it was hot in the center and our group kept splitting up) and I was really bummed about my yukari cosplay not arriving but I still had so much fun!! I saw a lot of cool cosplayers (didn’t get many pics but was jazzed about the soul eater group i saw, saw aba with a real nice paracelsus prop, an extraordinarily well-done pomni tadc, to name a few)

i was hoping reload would mean id find more p3 stuff in artist alley this year but i only found one person selling anything (admittedly a really good thing though! a double-sided charm with both protags and the whole main cast :]) which was a bit of a bummer. but honestly? for the best for my wallet !! I got out of this con with maybe the smallest haul ive ever had (I spent like under $50!!)

i didn’t end up meeting or signing with anyone but charles martinet and roger craig smith were there which was really dope!! don bluth too (right next to bitch fartman who had an empty line compared to bluth at the time we walked through which made me chuckle)

it was a good time!!! if all works out ill hopefully have yukari all set for next year. maybe someone who’s actually voiced in reload will be there this time 😭
