#shadow akechi

[ryntaia]

my late night intrusive thoughts strike again

I've seen concepts around the net of Akechi's Shadow being a child in form (due to his mental immaturity) and the thought of Noir facing that child shadow struck me. I drew it like two weeks ago but I was afraid to post it because it's so dark. Hell, it ended up being darker than I actually intended it to be. But I posted Shion so--

I like how my art for Persona has struck a fair balance between shitposting and whatever the hell this is

Akechi and Shadow Joker (drew it for my fic hehe)

but there’s more! what if Shadow Akechi interacted with Joker?

i’ve got goofy sketches and more details beneath the cut

if you wanna see Joker’s shadow design (why they look like that) or Akechi’s shadow designs, i’ve got posts :)

also gonna shamefully link my fic here too

have a sketch of an alt pose also

Kinda obsessed with Palace Ruler Shadow!Akechi recently...

[megaderping]

Patron request by xenamoi for Shadow Akechi from my AU, The Crow Cries at Midnight (P5 era) eating bee larvae as a snack because of a silly scenario in an RP thread with his AU Ken. Akechi is also there, baffled by how eagerly his Shadow is willing to try this exotic snack. (Apparently you eat it fried.) Context:

Also, I have a Patreon and stuff.

shuakeweek2023 - day one - fairy tales

a companion piece to what i drew for day seven last year. another scene from my palace au! robin hood isn’t technically a fairy tale, but…folk tale is close enough, eh?

(fun fact, ryuji’s ‘poor attempt to contribute’ was to call shadow!akechi a murderer)

look at yourself… you’re the true puppet.

[zillychu]

sometimes you black out and just an entire Persona 5 AU in one night

did I ever settle on a design for phantom thief! Siffrin? no. anyway,

NOT fully mirroring the P5 plot!! it's a bit different! a few were hit with the obligatory anime teenager beam

Siffrin gets arrested for allegedly attacking someone with a knife! this did not happen. while trying to help someone, he in fact got knifed in the face and lost an eye.

the adoption system is about to drop their ass since they're nearly an adult and no one's too happy about the aggravated assault. fate drops him at Nille's doorstep, who takes pity on him but insists she's only housing his ass for some extra cash. Bonnie acquires another felon a sibling!

showing up to school looking like shit (anxiety, no sleep), with an eyepatch and a natural silent intensity, no one really questions if he's stabbed someone. everyone's pretty sure he's killed someone actually.

Mira and Isa are charged with helping the new local mass murderer get settled, and they slowly start to uncover the real Siffrin hiding under all that apprehension. Odile, the school nurse, is all kinds of queer so she's got these kids' backs. as the story progresses, they each have their own character arc around biting back on authority (Isa gets the courage to transition, and Mira stops straightening her hair)

what about everyone else's outfits? that's the fun part! SIFFRIN IS DOING ALL THIS PHANTOM THIEF SHIT ALONE

well not totally alone. they've got a weird cat now. they can talk (Siffrin wishes they didn't) and has a concerning amount of knowledge about the metaverse for being an amnesiac! (this worries them too, they just try not to show it)

the OTHER fun part is that Siffrin is doing half this phantom thief stuff in the metaverse, half in the real world. good news is, he has the magic metaverse stuff irl! bad news is he has the magic metaverse stuff irl. yeah it helps keep him from getting caught, but law enforcement starts rising quickly to military arms when you start breaking physics while also being a theater kid about it.

the meat of the plot is surrounding Siffrin's struggle to fit two lives into one, and how his friends are WAY too perceptive to keep this up forever. but they have to, because they've only barely convinced their friends to accept them. if they knew he was some evil freaky magic terrorist (he's not, but like, who would believe him when he's doing seemingly evil freaky magic terrorist things!), they'd turn him in, they'd be scared, they'd HATE him!!

btw there is no rival for Siffrin. he's his own rival. lets give the "I'm terrified I'm manipulating my friends" twink actual mind alteration powers and see what happens :))

“Caught you red-handed, little thief.”

B&W version + Loki's design ↓

Reminder that my asks are always open for both questions and sketch requests!

last night

my freaks…

[ryntaia]

Oh no here I go again with more Shadow Akechi shite

(and yes the dialogue is a reference to Backside of the TV, I can't stop listening to it)

To clarify the whole concept I'm working on is that there are three separate shadow parts involved that build up to the previous absolute monster of a final boss, you would have to either defeat or outsmart the minibosses of the three separate heads to earn an item--all three items together in the right spot would cause the shadows to fuse into that absolute monstrosity of a final boss

You know

this guy

The name order is the order in which the heads will rotate control

also if anyone cares yes I realize that the collar looks wonky and already have worked out the changes I want to make on it

below cut is original concept again as well as some touch ups to the God of War ass doodle from the first post

I'm pretty much just doing this for my own personal amusement at this point lmao

[miitokii]

Loki: “Objection! Nuh uh.”

Robin Hood: “What do you mean, ‘Nuh uh’!”

hehehehe akechi’s palace. i traced the poses from Franziska von Karma (he’s got the twink body type).

see beneath the cut for more details, a link to a post with a proper drawing of Loki, and a shitpost

his palace is a courthouse, a trial of guilt where the verdict is kind of nullified, because it is agreed the defendant (Akechi) is guilty but isn’t punished for it

ALSO LOKI LOOKS SO GOOD WITH MAKEUP BUT I DON’T FEEL LIKE HE’D WEAR IT :(

true, Loki the god is a shapeshifter and has shapeshifted into women, so they would definitely wear make up, but idk if Akechi’s shadow specifically would wear makeup that bold … :( but have the makeup version anyway because i like it hehe

here is my proper drawing of Loki (with shadow Joker)!

if you don’t wanna see kissing / selfcest don’t scroll down lol

my friend was like ‘omg they wanna kiss so bad’ so i was like ‘ok. sure. i’ll draw them kissing. even though it literally makes no sense.’ though i didn’t put any effort into it lol - i traced a drawing by @goro_orb on twitter

Ill-advised trust exercises

(psst! hey! my commissions are open!)

[megaderping]

I think the funniest thing about Shuake in the context of The Crow Cries at Midnight is the fact that since Shadowkechi has his own ego and thus continues to exist as a separate consciousness within Akechi... It means the Shuake would be Akeshuake in the most literal sense. Ren gets two Goros for the price of one, and one of them is extra polite and just happy to be acknowledged and included. This random tangent from the P4 Akechi AU brought to you by me writing a really sweet scene in a much later chapter that concerns Shadowkechi and realizing how much he enjoys when he is treated like he matters. Though it makes for an interesting challenge for Akechi to navigate, too. Making sure his Shadow's okay with the relationship, figuring out how to balance their own individual needs, especially since outside certain spaces (e.g. the TV world, Metaverse), he can't manifest as easily as separate from Akechi and instead would have to take turns in the driver's seat. And Shadowkechi wondering if he's even wanted or if he's a third wheel, while Ren is the embodiment of the two cakes meme. But it is an incentive for Akechi to talk to the P1/P2 cast about how they manage to summon Personas IRL, since Shadowkechi can assume his more Akechi-shaped form rather than just Robin Hood if he so desires. It might give him chances to one day just... vibe separate from Akechi within a certain radius (so probably can't go extremely far).
