#like akechi pretens and feels good when he drops the act
Text
I feel like people genuinely do not get how hilarious swap au for p5 is. Like if you leave their affinities and vibe (akechi can use multiple personas but still can make shadows go crazy and akira has arsenè but he’s also a changeling and a joker so satana is also still there and he can change their appearance and his own appearance however he wants) so it’s like. Akechi is still a little crazy but he was also adopted by Ann and Ryiji and they are like. Yeah he’s a little unhinged but he saved us we like him!!! Friends group to battle your angry issues!!
And Akira is this charming little shit detective with too much stuff inside who still wants to strangle Shido like 20 times a day. And like. Instead of having a mental breakdown killing spree (which Akechi has like ten times while they do their plan of not having him killed) he changes his appearance ten times before them and now he’s SAD and Akechi is like wel I was SADDER when you killed me and Akira is like *gasp* HOW DARE YOU.
I just think Joker if left alone makes show out of basically everything. He just majicks his way out signing and dancing and being the diva and living his Lupene dream the whole way. Also he’s way too easily distracted than Akechi so I think halfway he would be like “you know what i need a vacation shido can suck my-“ and after that they see him only when they came to juzz club and he’s singing there.
Like idk. Swap au is just to unintentionally funny because Phantom Thieves essentially have crazy leader who is one step away from shooting every target but they also love him and he grudgingly agrees. And Ace Detective is just overtheathrical dude who’s also probably makes everything overly sexual and suggestive just to make everyone uncomfortable. And then he’s also incredibly surprised when someone actually responds in kind.
Chaotic evil and lawful evil in their best incarnation.
Like idk it’s the biggest difference in them, Akechi acts because he needs to and just feels so much better when he says what he thinks. And Akira meeanwhile enjoys acting so much he’s just having the time of his life pretending.
