Hello! Might I please request for a P3 relationship headcannon for Shinji and FemMc please? :-)

Sorry for such the long wait. I’ve been trying to answer the other ones, and I finally got the time to do this one! It’ll be a bit different from P3P, but I hope this pleases you!

Shinjiro Aragaki Relationship HCs 

[Minako/Fem!MC ver.] 

Spoilers Ahead!

Boy, Shinjiro really didn’t expect to fall in love. He already knows that his flame of life was going to be blown out anytime soon, and loving someone would only complicate things. 

He was in for hell when he met the transfer student. He first noticed her eyes, the innocent and pure glint within them. It was a shine he had never seen a long time, having spent his leisure hours in an alleyway full of crack addicts and thugs. 

Despite his cold front, Minako knew that there was more to this man than he showed. There had to be a good reason why he rejoined the SEES. 

At first, they were just teammates. It was a simple injury that brought them together. It was a critical hit that sent you flying through the room, but she didn’t hit a wall. “Oof!” 

She was caught in Shinjiro’s grasp. Se looks up to gaze into his dark eyes, but somehow, instead of looking away, she remains lost. Shinjiro wouldn’t admit it, but he didn’t look away or let her down. 

“Shinji! What are you doing, the battle’s over!” A blush appears on his face as he puts her down, spitting out an apology. She smiles, assuring that it was okay. There really was something more to this man.

Sometimes, Minako and Shinjiro would be felt alone in the dorms when everyone else was out for the night. At that time, Minako really didn’t know how to cook for herself and waited until someone got home. Just as she’s had it with her hunger, she goes downstairs to settle for cereal when she sees Shinjiro cooking.

She watches in secrecy, enchanted by the aroma and the way he would slice up the food. Damn, since when did Chefs look so sexy?

Shinjiro didn’t notice until he turned around to see Minako sitting by the Dining Table. “That looks delicious!” “W-When did you get here?!” In the end, Shinjiro decides to serve her the meal while Minako would give him praise and thanks. He would never tell her that those words warmed up his heart.

“Can I help you cook, sometimes?”

“Fine.”

Everything still goes accordingly with what happens in P3P, but what if they still had more time to spend before Shinjiro’s accident?

In the relationship, Shinjiro acts cold while Minako openly showers him with warmth. In public, he isn’t keen on PDA while Minako initiates it. Holding hands isn’t a problem, and he doesn’t mind it to keep her close to him with crowds. Kissing him in public however, flusters him a lot.

In private, Shinjiro drops his guard and becomes very affectionate. He doesn’t speak or say it a lot, but he really loves her. He’d give her ‘Forehead Kisses’ to prove it, but he’d kiss her lips when he felt romantic. 

He’s the type to give Minako his jacket when she’s cold, but he would feel cold himself. Since his coat was very large, sometimes he’d just pulls Minako into his chest and close up the coat, keeping both himself and her warm. It was so much better because of the physical contact too.

Minako and Shinjiro would often cook together. While she may not be a good cook, Shinjiro is always up for teaching her. Sometimes he does scold her for mixing up salt and sugar, but he doesn’t mind teaching her again and again. In the end, she just watches and acts as the taste tester.

Jealousy was not a problem. Shinjiro had no problem if Akihiko helpd her for school work, or if Junpei walked her home. It becomes a problem if anything gets farther than platonic gestures. There was a time when Shinjiro caught a playboy trying make advances on Minako, but that didn’t last long when he towers behind her. 

“Got some business with her, punk?”

“N-Nope! Never mind about that, see you later Minako!”

Shinjiro still had recurring nightmares about killing Ken’s mother. Now that Minako slept in his room sometimes, she would often console him and wrap her warms around him at night. She would whisper to him that it’s alright, and try to comfort him back to sleep.

To the SEES, the couple acts like the Mother and Father of the group. Shinjiro cooks and secretly cares for the other members, while Minako sticks to his side with a loving gaze. Ken wouldn’t say it out loud, but it was sweet of them to protect him and the other members.

It gets very angsty under the ‘Keep Reading’ sign, and it’s full of spoilers.

Minako felt very thankful when she made ther ight chocie to give him his pocket watch. Shinjiro was still alive, but asleep. It was better than him dying, at least.

Sometime on Christmas Eve, she spends time in the hospital with him. It was a bit heartbreaking since she still manages to smile and speak to him even if doesn’t respond. She sits by the bed, gripping the Leather Watch he had given her.

I didn’t mean for this to get so angsty, but we have to consider that Minako’s going to die. At the time of her sacrifice, she might’ve teared up at the thought of Shinjiro waking up one day. It would only be possible if she gave up her life now. Smiling, she already made her decision.

Once she had returned from defeating Nyx, someone told her that Shinjiro had woken up earlier than expected.

For the rest of her days, she spends her free time at the Hospital. While Shinjiro couldn’t recall the memories they had together, Minako still visited him. It did break her heart during the first day she visited. 

“Who are you?”

“Just a visitor.”

Shinjiro would be confused the whole time, wondering why a stranger would just visit every day. Somehow, he felt like this was right, as if he knew her this whole time. Minako never gave her name though, finding that it was the best.

A few days before her time ran out, Minako suddenly stopped visiting without warning. Initially, she didn’t want to miss Shinjiro. Thinking of him made her heart hurt, especially since she may never see him again. Shinjiro felt confused when she suddenly stopped visiting, but he wanted to see her again.

It was the final day. Minako had given up on everyone’s memories, and left herself on the rooftop. Laying on the bench, she recalls the promise to meet. Struggling to keep herself awake, she fought against the urge to sleep.

Suddenly she feels a yell coming from the door. Still, she glances at the door, eyes lighting up. Shinjiro panted heavily, a hopeful expression on his face. “I remember everything now!” Before she could register it, he cradled her in his arms, enveloping her in a warmth she hadn’t felt in so long.

“It must’ve been so painful for you, to speak to me while I couldn’t remember any of my memories.” Minako wanted to tell him that this moment was enough for her to forget the past. Even if he hadn’t recalled her for years, it didn’t matter if he still returned to her in the end.

Shinjiro smiles, unaware of her condition. Planting a feathery kiss on her forehead, he smiles. “I won’t let anything tear us apart again. Wherever you go, I will follow.”

Minako fought to stay awake, she really did. Sleep began to overpower her, and Shinjiro’s warmth wasn’t helping her. She sighed, giving into death. “Thank you, Shinjiro. I love you.” All she can think about was his scent, lulling her into deep sleep.

Bonus Angsty!Ending: Even after the events of ‘The Answer’, Shinjiro still loved you. Despite the treatment he received from the hospital, the effects from the supplements began to take it’s toll. About a few months later, he grew ill and was placed in the hospital. 

Doctor’s didn’t really know what happened to him, except for the SEES. Mitsuru tried to get the Kirijio Corps. to create a cure, but it was too late. Lying on his deathbed, Shinjiro glances at the window. 

He wonders how lonely she must be, holding back Erebus from touching Nyx. Minako’s soul stood as a wall, all alone. He smiles at the thought, feeling sleepy. He wonders if this was what she had felt then on the rooftop.

“I’ll be right there with you, Minako. Just please, wait for me.”
