Notes:

(See the end of the chapter for notes.)

Chapter Text

KT: Swimsuits are looking good!

TH: Lucky Kanji, getting to know measurements…

YH: Thanks again Kanji. Don’t know what we’d do without you!

KT: No problem.

NS: How does July 19th sound for you all?

RK: Works!

CS: Sounds good to me!

YA: I’m free too!

RK: Aaa I’m so excited!

YH: Should we invite Marie-chan?

YN: I don’t see why not.

NS: Have you mentioned it to her Senpai?

YN: Yes.

RK: So…

YN: So?

YH: How did it go Yu?

YN: Oh! Well she thought I was joking at first. Then I told her I was serious. So she paused and said that’s a big question, and that I was an idiot.

YA: As she does yes.

YN: She said she’d have to think on it.

YH: Fair enough.

YN: Either way, we can invite her to the beach.

CS: Ooo, can we bring barbecue??

KT: Let’s bring a watermelon too! Smash it open!

YN: That does sound fun.

YA: What beach are we going to?

YN: What about Hayama-Isshiki? It’s really close to tokyo.

YA: That should be fine!

YH: Finger’s crossed that nothing goes wrong…

TH: Wouldn’t it be weird if we met the phantom thieves?

YN: Even if we did, we wouldn’t know it was them.

YA: Huh, I never realized that but you guys probably have seen the thieves before.

NS: Tokyo is also quite large, the chances of that happening are quite slim. Then again, stranger things have happened.

KT: I wish we could do something. Damn that Shido son of a bitch.

TH: Shidon of a bitch?

RK: Teddie!!

TH: What!?

YA: Language!

TH: But Kanji just swore too!

YA: Yeah but… we expect that from him.

KT: That IS weird to see you swear Ted.

TH: (・・;)

YH: Everyone was so distracted by Teddie swearing that we completely ignored the pun.

NS: If Teddie wants to swear he can. He’s an adult after all.

YA: I know, but it’s weird!

TH: Yay! Teddie has swearing privileges! 

YN: What will you do first with this newfound power?

TH: New world order! Topsicles for all!

YH: He’s gone mad with power. We need to revoke this.

TH: Too late! Mwahaha. Yosuke!

YH: Yes?

TH: You have to do my chores for a week!

YH: What do you mean chores?? Like working at Junes? That’s a job.

TH: Then do my job!

YH: Do I get paid for doing your share?

TH: Of course not!

YA: kjfl;das

NS: To get back on topic, it’s rather frustrating how limited we are.

TH: I’d like to give that Shido a piece of my mind!

KT: Bald headed egg lookin’ prick...

YA: EGG LOOKIN’

CS: Agh, I’m getting mad just thinking about him! I’d love to kick that smirk right off his face!

YN: We all feel the same…

CS: Hell, he controls the police! And I”m working to be part of that! It scares me a bit in all honesty.

RK: We know you’d never get corrupted though Senpai. Knowing you, you’d quit before following one of Shido’s orders.

YH: Yeah, I don’t think you have much to worry about there.

CS: Thanks…

TH: He’ll get his one day, I’m sure of it!

YA: I hope you’re right Teddie…

NS: I wish I could share your optimism.

TH: Shardo?

RK: ??

TH: That was another pun! Shido? Share? Shardo! I crack me up!

YH: That was forced.

KT: Yup.

TH: (;﹏;)

TH: Oh, Idea!

NS: Yes?

TH: Nana-chan! Let’s bring her to the beach!

NS: Oh! We haven’t seen her in so long, that sounds like fun.

YN: I can text my Uncle. See what he thinks. I’m sure he’ll say yes. 

CS: Man this trip sounds better and better!

YN: It’s not too far away either.

YH: This is gonna be great!

YA: Hey Naoto-kun, there’s something I”ve been wanting to ask.

NS: Yes?

YA: What do you think of Akechi-kun?

NS: Ah, this must be about him being called “the second coming of the detective prince.”

CS: Oh yeah, I was wondering how you felt about that too.

NS: It’s not something that bothers me. All the focus that was placed on me as a result of the title was more frustrating than endearing.

NS: And he seems to be enjoying the fame a lot more than I was. Good for him.

TH: This town a’int big enough for the two of you!

TH: Who do you think would win in a fight?

NS: ...Pardon?

YN: I mean, Naoto has a persona and battle experience. Akechi most likely doesn’t have anything more than normal self defense training.

NS: Please don’t humor this.

YA: I know that Akechi-kun doesn’t think highly of the phantom thieves either. He says they should be tried in a court of law.

YH: Do you agree with him?

YA: I… don’t know.

KT: I mean… yeah what they’re doing is wrong and all but… they haven’t targeted anyone who wasn’t a piece of shit. They need to stop what they’re doing but I don’t think they need to go to the big house over it.

RK: I think I’d agree with that.

YN: You know… I can’t shake the feeling that they’re good people.

CS: Me neither.

NS: It’s more the principal of the matter that bothers me. But I don’t see them misusing their abilities for selfish gain. I know I said earlier that they could but… the more I think about it the less likely it becomes.

YH: I think we’re all in agreement there. 

YN: Akechi feels like he’s being a little too hard on them. But I can’t say even he’s a bad person.

TH: I… feel sad.

KT: What’s up Ted?
TH: I don’t know. Just hearing that, thinking about Goro. I just feel sad for no reason.

RK: That’s weird. I wonder why that is.

YH: Who knows.

NS: Would you like us to change the subject Teddie?

TH: Nah, it’s fine. Maybe I just feel a kinship with him!

YA: Ah, you’re both sparkly.

TH: Not wrong! And the ladies love us both!

CS: Y’know, I keep wanting to deny that but he DOES have 4 girlfriends.

TH: You all said I was crazy! Who’s crazy now?!

YH: You give the bear an inch and he takes a mile...

Notes:

Wow, it's been exactly 3 months since this fic last updated. This was done yesterday, but I decided to release it today just to say that. This series started with weekly updates and now it's very sporadic. I apologize for that. I tend to have a lot of writers block for this series, probably because of it's structure. I hope you continue to enjoy this fic though!

Notes:

Hello, welcome to a ship I refer to as "Poly Sticks." This is just really the P4 version of poly thieves. The name comes from a book in P4 called "Poly-land," with sticks instead because it's another word for the "boonies." Also unintentional, but it references the King's game! I haven't seen anyone write this before, so be the change you see in the world! This is not story driven, there are references to Persona 5, as this is 2016, but for the most part this is just them having fun and talking. The tone is meant to be pleasant, but as a P4 fic, there will be the team giving each other shit. There are also some serious or more somber discussions, but it's meant to be wholesome for the most part! I feel a chatfic is a good start at least to writing multi chapter fics, since they're a bit simpler. It will be updating once a week, barring any schedule slips, so let's have some fun with my favorite game!

Honestly, I don't remember whether I got this idea before or after I saw "Gays give me your wisdom" by thephilosophah, so I'll give them credit anyway!
