Ayano: Can I ask you something?

Akechi, drinking coffee: What is it?

Ayano: Does my constant flirting with you make you uncomfortable?

Akechi: *spits coffee*

Akechi: You've been flirting with me?

Ayano: You hadn't noticed??

it’s canon now, Ayano gets one of these “kiss the cook” aprons but she crossed out “the cook” with a marker and wrote “my ass” right under it

this is it, my new bible

the most shocking piece of info in here has got to be the double awakening... this goes against every headcanon I’ve seen so far, very interesting

Some new Akechi trivia

Last year, there was a P5R fanbook called Persona 5: Mementos Reports that was released in March 2021. In this fanbook, the P5 devs answered some interview questions. Some of the questions they answered are related to Goro Akechi.

So, this post is just going to highlight the Goro-related questions that the devs answered! 😊🥞

This image of Goro is also from the fanbook:

So Goro doesn’t keep a gun in his case lol. He usually puts school supplies, water, snacks, sweets, and cosmetics in there. Haha, I can imagine Goro applying cosmetics in the public bathrooms all the time to stay pretty.

It turns out that Goro chooses to wear argyle not because he likes it. He purposely did it for his Detective Prince image. He knows that Naoto wears argyle somehow and got inspiration from that.

Goro lives in a condo. A condo is like an apartment BUT you pay mortgage for it and own the property. So Goro owns a condo space at this young age?

I doubt that he bought it. According to Japanese law, you are not allowed to buy a home until you are 20. So I bet Shido bought and owned that condo space for Goro to live in as part of their deal.

Also… Goro only keeps a minimum amount of furniture in his condo. LOL I can only think of that “Male living space” meme. 😂 I like to joke that Goro’s condo look something like this: 

A bike designed for beginners? So Goro is not advanced at cycling yet huh? xD

So Goro can handle spicy food to an average extent. Due to his competitive nature, he probably did knew that he was going to eat the red takoyaki and tried to be a show off in front of the PTs lol

 Or maybe he was trying to impress his crush *coughs* Joker *coughs* but failed lol

Oh that’s interesting. The struggles of being left-handed 😔

OKAY GUYS ENOUGH OF THE “WHICH PERSONA COMES FIRST?” THEORIES!

The devs said that Akechi awakened both of his Personas at the SAME TIME. Damn that must have been REALLY painful. Probably the most painful awakening of them all. He must have felt his head splitting in two. 😭😭😭 Poor Goro, he can’t catch a break in his life.

————————

And that’s all of the Goro-related questions that the devs answered in that fanbook! Now you can go wild with this canon information lol.

left brain and right brain is a myth. there is only “crush-on-Akechi” brain and “crush-on-Joker” brain

#and i'm stuck in a perpetual state of limbo between the two #persona 5

being a writer is looking up how to tend to a gun wound one second and how to cook scrambled eggs the next

#add to that the classic how to dispose of dead body #and other similarly alarming queries #fbi open up

[modern-decadence]

writing a draft of the new chapter, closing my laptop at 2 am because "okay really time for bed now" and immediately opening my phone's notes because my brain is suddenly vomiting ideas

#it always does that #why does it always do that #it's always when i'm ultra tired and can't spell shit

Link to 20xx tokyo galatea, my Akechi x reader/OC slowburn fanfiction! Finally reached chapter 22 out of 30-ish... So glad I got to this point honestly. Been thinking about this chapter since the very beginning, and this was definitely one of the biggest sources of motivation along with reader feedback.

Summary

In an attempt to slow down the rate of love confessions he receives and divert the public's attention from the mental shutdowns and psychotic breakdowns, Akechi tries to find someone to play the role of his princess.

Ayano is a quiet, boring, average student devoid of individuality and lacking any passions or dreams. She has never approached the Akechi Goro before, shows no interest in his celebrity status, and seems mature enough that he can imagine going on mandatory dates with her without feeling like gouging one of his eyes out.

Most importantly, Akechi sees no risk of ever falling in love with such a dull, bland, unremarkable girl.

Cyrano concept art

A frequent initial reaction to this image is: “where’s the face? thinking emoji” to which I reply there is NO face, it’s all birb

There was a long internal struggle over which of two concept ideas would make it as Ayano’s Persona. I almost gave up on Cyrano because female characters in Persona 5 get female Personas, but then I decided to go with him anyways because look at him. Tiny feet.

I had the idea to mix some birb into his design when I remembered Cyrano says something about his nose being a bird perch in his famous monologue. Why a pigeon though? No idea, just cause. Plus he’s got that cute heart-shaped cere.

Speaking of hearts, since I went with a love/devotion theme for this guy, I ended up drawing inspiration from the Jack of Hearts (playing card—mostly the French version) for his outfit, and adding it to the initial 17th century-ish cavalier look I planned for him. Historical fashion nerds pls don’t hurt me I know I mixed different epochs ow

To conclude: I love my pigeon man.

Ayano Yabusaki concept art

L E G S

There was a time gap between the two drawings which explains the differences in technique and effort lol.

I drew Phantom Ayano in January 2021, tweaked her (color correction mostly) throughout the year, and eventually drew her regular form/school outfit while managing to keep a similar style. I actually tried to (more or less) emulate the Persona 5 art style. Think it turned out alright.

December 2, 5:43 PM Akechi — Are you okay? Akechi — I don’t mean to be pushy, but your lack of reply has me worried. Please let me know if you’re alright somehow.

December 4, 1:39 AM Akechi — Please say something Akechi — Tell me you’re okay I need to know you’re okay
