Summary
Tokyo— Where the skies were blue, the streets held secrets, and the red light district danced under strobelights and the darkness.
Akira Kurusu made it big as an underground DJ by the age of 18 under the stage name Joker. By the time he hit 21 years old, he had erected his own club in the heart of Shinjuku’s infamous red light district, curiously named ‘The Metaverse.’
And then there’s Goro Akechi, age 22 and a rising star in Tokyo’s world of dance— who’s promptly half-dragged to the club by his friend one night. There’s a reason why, even after a year, he continues to go to The Metaverse; spoiler alert, it’s not entirely because of the hot DJ’s music.The tales of their lives are spun by notes and melodies, weaving together like the tracks under Joker’s hands. With each beat, the two dance around each other in a game of push and pull; high-risk, high-reward.
One could only wonder, though, what other secrets Joker keeps hidden in the shadows of The Metaverse.Series

Bookmarker's Notes
Great story. Ending isn’t ch.31, there’s a part 2 the writer abandoned. The first (good) kiss is skipped as well. What is written is good, though.

Summary
Goro will do anything to take care of his adoptive family. The Isshikis took him in when no one else would, and, even in the wake of Wakaba's death, such bonds could not be broken. They could, however, be stretched... By Goro's sister requesting help from the vigilante group known as the Phantom Thieves.
All that Goro thought he'd known is pulled out from under him and there's one young man with a Cheshire grin ready to pick him up out of the sand. Out of the many questions Goro has, he wonders: Is Kurusu here to steal his sister's heart? Or his own?

Summary
All Akira wants is to graduate high school without becoming a career criminal. Is that too much to ask?

Summary
Uhmm... So, I'm not completely sure on where the story will go, I like letting the characters take the lead.
WELCOME TO THE Interrogation Room in an AU.
~~
Thus far...
Akechi discovers the phantom thieves' plan for Nov 20 interrogation. He's frustrated with himself for being fooled, and isn't mentally prepared for the version of Ren he meets on the other side of that door. He didn't expect the police to be so rough with him. Seeing Ren like that, hazy, pained, and distant... It reminds Goro of his mother. And things spiral from there.(AU Akechi where he internalizes his trauma responses more.)
Eventually, the casts from persona 3 and 4 will be included as I expand on AU lore and a more complicated semester three. (Think of it as an AU ultimax with p5 and no wrestling rings, haha.)
Please leave comments/ critiques! I must learn to grow as a writer! And thanks, hope you enjoy the read.

Summary
Goro Akechi is a flawless honour student--perfect grades in every class, an early internship with the Police force, a position on the Student Council, and a promising, bright future ahead of him. Every aspect of his life is particular, controlled, nothing is out of step.
Until Akechi is kicked down to second on the exam score ranking, which really pisses him off.
(note: updates are slow at the moment due to university, but they're still coming!)
