    Summary

    Violet Evergarden finds herself taking an unexpected assignment as a handmaiden for Miss Isabella York while she attends a prestigious women's academy. It's a far cry from Violet's typical work writing letters and made more complicated by the secrets they must keep.

    This story is a re-imagining of the movie Violet Evergarden: Eternity and the Auto Memory Doll. It explores what might happen if Violet walked a different path and eventually reciprocated Amy's feelings. The story will go beyond their time at the school and expand on the adversity they have to overcome if they want to be together.

    Written in a way that is (hopefully) fandom blind friendly.

    Summary

    "Hey." The word was far too casual, a word reserved for chance meetings and parties and acquaintances you'd run into on the street. It wasn't a word one typically used to greet someone you'd both betrayed and sacrificed yourself for.
    It simply wasn’t right. The dead weren’t supposed to speak.

    Summary

    Sis had warned her about the troublemaker of a transfer student earlier that week and reminded her to stay away. The school had been abuzz with the update that he’d shown up several hours late for his first day of classes alongside Ryuji Sakamoto, a known delinquent. All sorts of stories had spread about him and the trouble that he was in. But something about his eyes belies the reputation that precedes him—his gaze is sharp, intelligent, with an honest clarity that confuses her.

    Makoto Niijima keeps her head down, works hard, and takes care of her responsibilities.

    Enter Akira Kurusu, with his collection of piercings and devil may care attitude, who is going to set her world spinning off kilter.

     

    Or, Joker embraces his delinquent reputation, acquires a head full of piercings, and approaches Queen before it's time.

    Summary

    Makoto Niijima cannot stop thinking of Haru Okumera. The way she laughs, her eyes, her figure- everything about her makes Makoto feel both at peace and more confused than she's ever been. In the midst of dealing with her feelings, Makoto joins Haru for a mission to Mementos, where Haru gets hypnotized by a shadow and begins to turn on Makoto.

    Summary

    Niijima knew more than she let on when she requested the Phantom Thieves to target Kaneshiro, and the blackmail was only the start of their troubles. At least they found a new ally in a certain Goro Akechi - as soon as they could get him out of the mafia, that is.

    Some sort of role reversal of Goro and Makoto, featuring Goro as a Phantom Thief and Makoto as the friend that can't quite be trusted.

    Summary

    When the chains of captivity cannot be broken, the chains of sanity shall break instead. Is emancipation from such a state even possible?

    Summary

    April of 2020, Ren Amamiya has a chance encounter with Masayoshi Shido that sends his life careening out of control.

    In February of 2021, just months before he leaves his hometown of Inaba to head to Tokyo, he has a chance encounter with classmate Nanako Dojima.

    When Nanako finds out Ren is being forced to leave for the big city, she can't let go of the injustice.

    And follows him.

    --

    This is a what-if: What if the "small town" that Joker lived in was Inaba? What if the XX in 20XX was 2021, 10 years after the events of Persona 4? What if Nanako still needed to settle the shadows of the events of her childhood?

    It's Showtime!

    Summary

    "One thing is sure, a great change of our psychological attitude is imminent, that is certain... we need more psychology, we need more understanding of human nature because the only real danger that exists is man himself, he is the great danger, and we are pitifully unaware of it. We know nothing of man, far too little. His psyche should be studied because we are the origin of all coming evil."
    - Carl Gustav Jung

    A series of planned Persona novelizations centered around horribly dysfunctional, self-destructive, and nigh-completely imperfect Protagonists. Contains heavy religious theming, horror elements, psychological trauma, and centers around the different ways people deal with grief, depression, and their own self-destructiveness.

    Summary

    My name is Akira Kurusu. I was put on probation for a crime I didn't commit and sent to Tokyo for a year. When I get to my new high school, Shujin Academy, the students somehow know about my criminal record, and the rumors start pouring in. They say I'm a killer; they say I'm a monster, that I carry a knife, and that I deal in elephant tusk trafficking. Dumb high schoolers spreading dumb rumors.

    Sad thing is though, they're all true...except for the elephant tusks.

    -----------------

    An AU where Akira, instead of forming the Phantom Thieves and stealing criminals' hearts, is a super-powered anti-hero who kills criminals because he himself has found nothing to live for...until now.
