akechi mid engine room rant: YOU AND YOUR HUGE FUCKING DICK!! WHAT DO YOU NEED ALL THAT FOR!!!
joker: my What
not aimed at either d/s dynamic particularly. idc if it owns him or he owns it. both are hot i just want him to Want It
(said as if i'm delivering a hot new take) i think akechi should be obsessed with joker's cock
okayyyy i lied ONE more reply eheh
i figure akechi was telling the truth when he said he didn't remember how he got off the ship and had suspected for a while that he was only alive because of maruki. like he has no proof that that's NOT true, and he's sure as fuck not gonna choose optimism lmao
meant to say "if akechi's ALIVE how did maruki bring him back" in that reply. ffs. bluesky let us edit posts already damn!!!!
last reply im gonna leave on this bc holy SHIT is it long but had to correct that lol
added a new function to my WIP tracker so i can keep track of posting deadlines. i am going to be so fucking organized (later dates are rough estimates)
"- and that is at that time, Maruki does not have concrete proof that Akechi is dead. He came to that conclusion after peeking into everyone's cognitions. ... But in reality no one knows what really happened."
eternally funny to me. this mf has his entire bargaining chip riding on a GUESS
it's in this interview with the director and producer of royal
www.scribd.com/document/589...
"It's been touched upon in the discussion about Maruki in the scene where Akechi's fate is being bargained. ...there's one thing we don't want you to misunderstand -"
YEAHHH ONE POINT \o/
also btw something tangentially relevant: i see a lot of people say 'if akechi's dead then how did maruki bring him back? or was he just lying about akechi being dead?' and we actually do have a canon answer for that, and it's that maruki literally just had no fucking idea lmao
(also realizing i completely forgot futaba wasn't there for madarame or kaneshiro's palaces. my point still stands about her not noticing him at any point in okumura's palace but sorry for the mixup lol)
also i forgot to say this part but akechi is the only party member to learn protect (save joker from fatal hit) BEFORE endure. literally everyone else learns to save themselves first and he learns to save joker first. so there's already a precedent for his confidant doing environmental storytelling
so like, can it feel very narratively unsatisfying if akechi doesn't die after all? yeah totally. do i think the atlus team were geniuses doing this on purpose? no not really. but can i make it thematically hit? abso fucking lutely my man
i know it's a little bit of a reach to go "he survived because of this unlocked skill" but listen it's not about the literal skill unlock. it's about the fact that if you go with that interpretation, symbolically, it's his bond with joker that gives him the strength to hold on just that little bit
not counting third semester, what's the most key difference between vanilla akechi and royal akechi? his reworked confidant, which comes with confidant skill unlocks. specifically at ranks 9 and 10 (aka the engine room scene) he unlocks endure, which lets you survive a fatal hit
this next bit is gonna involve game mechanics, and i know some might think that's stupid and not accept it as legit reasoning. + it's fine if that's how you roll! but i personally LOVE game mechanics used in storytelling so: it's very important to me that akechi Only survives if joker bonds with him
i never put a huge amt of stock in futaba not being able to sense akechi's life signs because it's established she can miss things. specifically akechi, because he stalked them through 3 palaces and she NEVER noticed he was there. i can easily believe she would miss him if he was injured and weak
my take on it is like first of all sorry to come in here like Well Actually โ๏ธ๐ค bc your thread is awesome and u made points. narratively it's always gonna be a little unsatisfying for akechi to escape a fate we were told was inevitable. but just for me personally it's like this:
Me wearing a comedically oversized shirt that says "me liking ur posts from 8 months ago isnt me being weird or trying to stalk you bsky fyp just shows me your posts from any time and i like them not realizing theyre not recent sorry"
disclaimer to my moots
for like two months i've been having fic ideas just constantly and very little time in my schedule to write. thank god for the new WIP tracker i made or i wouldn't have been able to remember fuckin any of them now that i actually have time again
another day another person with their real life tits out and unlabeled on my fyp. mark your fucking post as NSFW it's not hard
i think there's a difference between general fandom behavior of sanding down characters to fit into predetermined shipping categories and us purposely putting that man in yaoi situations for enrichment. so you're real for that tbh
this mermay will be huge for me (manifesting)
waittt i had a concept for a makoharu fantasy AU for hypnokink purposes where haru was a magic shop owner of some kind... and maybe i'll still do that but looking at the big band concert art again has opened my eyes. i need to write siren haru
lrp i just noticed haru holding the strap hanging from makoto's belt in her hand like it's a leash i am about to act UPPP

jp users learning about 'fujoshing out' for the first time probably made my whole week...peak cultural exchange ๐ญ
it's technically not heatfic . because rabbits fuck so much they don't have heat cycles โ๏ธ
bitches will say they hate the ukeification of goro akechi in shuake fic and then turn him into a horny bunnyboy for easter. it's me i'm bitches
bluesky is where it is today solely on the efforts of the courageous artists drawing the horniest gay art ever to grace a timeline ๐ซก
