#detective princes

[princedetectives]

ok but really even without all the dramatic au stuff i like doing to them, i really think atlus accidently made one of the most interesting dynamics from what was definitely just supposed to be a cameo. the second coming of the detective prince and he's so different from the first. from how he is you'd maybe expect akechi to not really care about the title or even be kind of bitter about being placed in the shadow of someone else he hasn't even met, but no,

he actively mirrors naoto. this sweater is the only canonically confirmed callback but i've sniffed out others, even down to the way they hold themselves.

like, clothing is one thing that could just be for the public image, but come on. it's part of his SELF image. his status as the second detective prince is vital to his view of himself.

and q2 all but proves he respects naoto deeply. and it all makes sense because he really is proud of being a detective, of course he'd be a fanboy of one of the most well-known young detectives out there. i can imagine he relates to the image he has of naoto a lot.

and it's not like it places him to live up to the achievements of naoto or anything, to a degree maybe yes, but not enough to the point that it's a burden. because he's piggybacking off of his legacy and blowing it out of the water. akechi is FAMOUS, much more than naoto was, i imagine. people would hear about the first detective prince and go, "who? i only know akechi." the title only benefits him, publicly and personally.

and it'd be so interesting if they met, because it's not like one is living in the others' shadow. akechi has to live up to naoto's reputation because he's the successor to naoto's legacy, placed on his shoulders by the force of the public. naoto has to live up to akechi's reputation because he's the new big thing, he's what everyone is interested now, he's who was chosen to succeed him. they live in each others' shadows. it's an ouroboros of reputation.

i just think they're neat. they'd get along too, i bet. they definitely got along in q2! they're the only ones in the whole world who can relate to each others' experiences of growing up as a detective prince. they're both big nerds. they're both competitive. PLEASE imagine placing these two in the same room together. it would be so INTERESTING.

and don't even get me STARTED on how Crow looks a hell of a lot like naoto's persona

Every time I read something that's like Justice League appalled to find out about Robin I do have to laugh bc you know I don't think they would care either that or they're all fucking hypocrites

It’s funny that Sumire is the one with the Cinderella persona and Akechi is the one with the prince outfit and yet the most Prince Charming-coded thing in the game is Joker holding onto a single glove, waiting for its owner to return after the magic that let them spend a brief time together was over. The glove is functionally the same as a glass slipper. So in conclusion detective prince? more like disney princess--

Divine (grandpa) twitch chat.

Billy has 6 grandpas in his head at all times. More specifically 6 really old grandpa's who know modern slang in his head. And he doesn't know whether to be tired of it or burst out laughing at some of the stuff they say. Let's say for instance.

Zeus: When I was you age I was stuck in my father's stomach cause I was eaten by him!

Solomon: Nobody cares you unc. Everybody knows your rizz stories are all cap.

Captain Marvel: *Trying really hard to keep his face straight in order to stop bursting out laughing in the meeting.*

WW notices and comments on it

Wonderwoman: Brother, is something wrong?

Captain Marvel: Oh, it's fine the twitch chat in my head keeps arguing.

He accidentally blurts out as the JL all look at him with confused stares.

And for another story.

Billy being all alone in some room in the JL watch tower.

Heracles: Thy strength is so much better than superman. He may be a Poser.

Solomon: You may be strong, but in no way are you beating him. You're all bark no bite.

Heracles: Why don't you-!

Captain Marvel pinching his nosebridge.

Cap: I don't wanna hear anything about this, I'll count to 3 and if your not quiet then I swear to myself I will punch a hole through this space ship.

Flash and GL who just so happened to pass by as Billy said that.

Green lantern:...You think he needs a vaca?

Flash:... Definitely.....
