#how is it i can picture that scene with ryuji so vividly in my mind

[books-and-dragons]

Please imagine Takemi putting Akira on pain meds post-interrogation and it leads to somewhat comical conversations when he's high as balls

"Ryuji would you still love me if I was gay"

"You already--ykw, whatever, yeah"

Akira, sobbing "I love you so much"

asdfg june this concept is absolutely hilarious to me, you just know that a blitzed-out-of-his-mind akira would be the most comical (and chaotic) sight

his usual quiet demeanor? gone, this boy isn't shutting the fuck up. or, if he is it's like having a cat- peace and quiet is not a good sign; silence rings from upstairs, not a mindless chatter to be heard and the rest of the pt freeze downstairs and share the same immediate panic: akira what the fuck are you up to now (especially since he should be RESTING but now he's trying to climb out the window and roofjump across yongen. seriously, someone needs to be on akira-watch constantly)

at some point akira starts chatting on about the velvet room, and igor's long-ass nose, twin child-wardens and the persona executions, and the team just think it's more of his high ramblings. you'd sure think, huh....

and he calls sojiro 'dad' the entire time. no, those aren't tears in sojiro's eyes, he's just very tired from staying up all night tending to akira. that's all.

futaba has it all on film, and akira's in for the lifelong fight of his life to keep that shit private. younger siblings will younger sibling.
