    Summary

    Skull does his best, and to some extent, he does what he needed to.
    The lifeboat makes it to the other Thieves, but he doesn't make it out of that palace.

    Instead of waking up in the bushes outside the diet building, Ryuji wakes up on a train headed to Yongen Jaya, where he will be living for the next year due to his probation.
    Thrust into a role of leadership he doesn't think he can handle, Ryuji has to navigate what it is like to be in Akira Kurusu's pointy shoes, at least he has the memories of the last timeline to help him, right?

    Ryuji Sakamoto Protagonist AU with a little new game plus spice

    Summary

    Sound ceased around him, and the air stilled. Goro's crimson eyes snapped up, looking around at a world frozen in time. In the distance, across the Crossing, a blue fire that Goro recognized as the signature spirit flames of a Persona blossomed, forming a vague figure he didn't recognize. He felt that he was in a trance, unable to move, unable to look away. In a flash, he saw his own face wreathed in the flame, eyes the color of molten gold, face split by a wide grin that reminded him of Joker. It wasn't cold or cruel or maddened. It was feral, rebellious, ecstatic.

     

    Free.

    Goro was a lot of things. Or, he tried to be, at least. One thing he shouldn't be is alive. Another thing he shouldn't be is leading his own team of Phantom Thieves against the father he'd, evidently, assaulted to get where he is, now.

    Funny how fate works like that, huh?

    Summary

    This is truly an unjust game… Your chances of winning are almost none. But if my voice is reaching you… There may yet be a possibility open to you… I beg you… Please, overcome this fate… And save the world…The key to victory lies in the memory of your bonds – the truth that you and your friends grasped. It all began that day… When the game was started a year and a half ago… For the sake of the world’s future, as well as your own… You must remember…

    After being arrested for assault after rescuing a young woman from a stranger, high school student Yusuke Kitagawa expects his move to Shibuya for probation to be uneventful. However, with strange dreams haunting him, and a shocking fate about to await him, it seems as though the idea of his probation being 'uneventful' was taken out.

    Let us start the game...

    Summary

    Sumire spent a lifetime building up speed and momentum, doing the one thing she could do to keep her sister safe. Once life ripped that away from her, she became listless, reckless and angry. And now she's out of jail, facing the reality of a life without her two anchors: coaching and her sister. With a fresh start she never wanted, she has to try and figure out some next steps.

    Life isn't that easy, but there's adventure and joy hidden in badly learned lessons.

    An arcana adaptation of Persona 5 characters but not the story. Technically this is a sequel to Firm Identity but you do not need to read that to read this. Also don't expect that pace.

    Updates Tuesdays and the occasional Friday.

    Summary

    Souji's second day being human again ends up involving a lot of planning, but it's kind of nice to have everyone finally know everything.

    Shockingly, spending more time with them outside of the TV World makes it a little easier to see what hasn't changed.

    Summary

    The last thing Ryuji wants to do is upend his life and move to a new city in the middle of highschool, but after being arrested for trying to defend his mom from her deadbeat ex-husband, he doesn’t really have a choice. Mom says they both need a fresh start, and Ryuji figures he might as well give Tokyo a chance.

    Life in the big city ends up being even more crazy that he expects, when he ends up thrown into the Metaverse on his very first day of school. Someone has to do something about King Kamoshida and it might as well be him.

    His second chance is going to be more difficult than he expected, but he wouldn’t change it for the world.

    Summary

    This is probably the worst, most utterly dangerous decision in Goro Akechi's life.

    That, in itself, is saying a lot.

    Or: What happens when Goro Akechi tries to be a real detective and his mother is still alive?

    The game is afoot!

    Summary

    It had been about two days since Orokana Makoto had arrived in Tokyo, clutching at the backpack carrying everything she owned. She had grown used to packing light, since she tended not to last long in most of the places where she lived. There was no point placing roots if they were only going to be torn out from underneath you before long - odds were she’d be packing it all up just a few months later, and she wasn’t intending to get attached.

    An Arcana Swap AU of Persona 5 Royal.
