    Summary

    What fiery resolve. Allow me to answer your call then. You, who will not turn a blind eye to the maddening truth of the world-who seeks the way forward through the waters of deceit. Come now, and reveal to all the depths of obsession.

    The pain that squeezes itself around Futaba’s temples isn’t sudden and sharp. It snaps through a threshold to suddenly make her aware of it, a growing constraint trying to ensnare her with her guard down. A kind of tension she didn’t know was there until it’s already too much to stomach.

    She lurches forward, swaying with the effort. The thought is sudden and childish, that she refuses to be knocked off her feet.

    I am thou, thou art I. Come, little prophet of doom, let us leave them nowhere to hide.

    or: Futaba Sakura is the wildcard, and also the only thing between the world and utter ruin. You know. No pressure.

    Arcana Swap! Protagonist Futaba.
    *Best guesses at Arcana:
    Fool: Futaba Sakura leads the Phantom Thieves. Wild Card, Trickster. Code name: Herald. Persona: Hastur -> ???? -> Haïta. Light Affinity. (Mask theme in King in Yellow, and more benevolent form in his initial concept of Haïta the Shepherd)
    Hierophant?: Sojiro Sakura. Futaba's using his last name, but Wakaba's alive, but no one's explicitly stated that he married her. Not ruling out other Arcanas, but Hierophant is still as Dad-coded as ever.
    Lovers: Unrevealed - Goro?. Persona: Zanni -> ???? -> Arlecchino. (Commedia Dell'arte stock character -> Best-known of the Zanni.)
    Chariot: Haru Okumura. Met on first day of school, tripped into Sugimura's Shujin Charity of Lust. Persona: Filibus -> ???? -> Troixmonde. (1915 Silent film Sky Pirate)
    Hermit: Yusuke Kitagawa.
    Strength?: Caroline & Justine. Still Velvet Room "wardens", but they have different outfits/hairstyles, and the Room is a *sci-fi* prison. May or may not be a different Arcana and have a different relationship.
    Temperance?: Munehisa Iwai is Futaba's homeroom teacher (Ushimaru is Ren's, RIP him).
    Judgement: Tae Takemi leads the 11/20 Interrogation.
    ????: Akira Kurusu. Still on probation, still taken in by Sojiro, but living in his house, not the attic? And not the Trickster.
    ????: Kana Magario. Extant, relevant, I'd bet dollars to donuts she's a confidant.
    ????: Goro Akechi. Drama club?
    ????: Morgana. The usual Mona? Persona: Talos. Not Magician.
    ????: Yumeko Mogami. Scratchy voice, dark greasy hair. The cyberstalking girl Mementos target in canon. Has some sort of prominence in Sugimura's Palace.
    Palaces:
    Sugimura Shujin Academy Charity of Lust. Gross gross gross.
    *Others:
    Wakaba Isshiki: Alive, but wheelchair-bound and not in the country. Might *not* be a confidant.
    Black Mask: Subway accident had no deaths or injuries??? No mention of Mental Shutdowns?

    Summary

    Most of the thieves are near triffling to endear herself to. Sumire's guidance is instrumental, as a leader often is, but Haru's soft-spoken tone and ability to find anything interesting serves her well. Kitagawa will accept near anyone willing to buy them dinner and talk about art for a spell. Haru's athleticism makes connecting with Sakamoto trivial, and aids her well in swaying Niijima's favor. Takamaki's is won with a single evening in the kitchen baking, and she slips a foot in the door with Kurusu with a hand-made cat sweater for Morgana, much to the latters chagrin.

    Which leaves one last trial to overcome. Unfortunately, Goro Akechi has made her opinion of Haru really quite clear.

    Masayoshi Shido had been one of the last of her victims. Spite is the least of the emotions she'd expect from his daughter, even if their relationship hadn't been stated or public. Of course she'd anticipate becoming beloathed.

    Which is why it's to her shock that Akechi extends the invitation first.

    Or: A reconciliation, except Masayoshi Shido is the body in the morgue.

    Summary

    It was supposed to be over, but when are things ever that simple?

    Summary

    He runs as quickly as his feet carry him, passing containers, shelves, only a few meters separating him from the front door. He hears the shouts of the Yakuza behind him as they finally spot him — but they won’t be fast enough to shoot, Akira has already reached the door, he yanks down the handle, pushes open the door—

    And comes face to face with a ghost.

    ___________________________________________

    Five years after the fall of Maruki's reality, Akira has a chance encounter with a certain detective.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Akechi lives (but no one's sure how), he's a detective, and the disaster gays dance around each other. Well written, good prose.
    5 years post-P5R. Everyone’s more or less gone separate ways, but keep in touch over text. Ann’s in America and is Ren’s primary confidant re:Akechi. "Unrequited" crush on Shiho.
    Akechi’s detective alias: Asaka Eiji. Motorbike.
    Yusuke ate a plastic lime. :)
    Shiho works at Rafflesia. "Unrequited" crush on Ann.
    Wakaba experimented on Akechi :(

    Who knows Akechi is alive: Sae -> Akira -> Morgana -> Ann -> Yusuke -> Futaba -> The Rest

    Case 1 - Untouchable: Yakuza! Yelp reviews lead to reunions and shootouts.
    Case 2 - Jazz Jin. Stalker uses Yusuke as a scapegoat. Akira realizes he has a crush.
    Case 3 - Rafflesia: Serial kidnapping of young women, and serial theft of gardening tools. Akechi crashes his bike.
    Case 4 - Crossroads: Switched to Akechi POV. Akira in drag! Kidnapper still at large, victims turned up dead. Stabbed by gardening tools, purple flowers, homage to a dead idol. One more future victim expected.

    Summary

    Just some info I've gathered over the past couple of weeks, about how to:
    1. Block tags using Site Skins, block only fics that contain both tag A and tag B, and block fics with a tag that contains a certain phrase, unless they are a specific whitelisted tag
    2. Highlight the tags in pretty colors! Or bold, or hide them!
    3. Block mega-crossovers with a million different fandoms
    4. Select for/block fics that are completed/rated something/have a certain category/don't have summaries
    5. Block everything that doesn't have a certain tag, or one of a list of tags
    6. Block orphan_account and tag block by author
    7. Block only tags of specific types (fandoms, relationships, freeforms, etc.)
    8. Block fics focused on a list of characters, and/or fics without any tags of a specific type
    9. Block every pairing with two characters in it—case insensitive, any order, no matter how many other people are also in the tag
    10. Block by number of tags
