Summary
“You left your relationship to the patient blank,” the secretary said, looking up at him over her own pair of halfmoon glasses. “We only let family in to see patients requiring this level of care. I can’t let you back unless you declare it.”
Akira’s mind whirred, he wasn’t expecting to honestly be called out on this. Any other time he had visited someone in the hospital, they had just let him back after writing his name with no questions asked but...if he wracked his brain those times he had always been with his parents. And they had been visiting his grandmother. Shit. Akira wasn’t family, they looked nothing alike and the hospital staff would see right through that even if he tried. They weren’t going to let him back unless…
“He’s my boyfriend,” Akira blurted out.

Summary
As the Phantom Thieves battle to free themselves and the rest of the world from the blissful stupor of the new reality, a chilling revelation is laid on Akira about Akechi's fate during Shido's Palace. Reeling in the struggle between the two's differing wills on the matter, events are set in motion that reset the timeline to the beginning of the previous year. No knowledge of the trials and tribulations approaching remain for Akira, Akechi, or any of the Phantom Thieves.
Still the pair's desperate desires ring true, forgotten but not lost, and the smallest changes can have the largest effects.
“Were you ever going to tell me, Goro?” Akira's voice was whisper quiet, brittle like new frost.
“How could I? I had no proof; it was a theory. If I had known you would be like this, probably not,” his voice had picked up that goading edge again, like it was all going to fall back to normalcy.
“Go to hell. You know I’d have tried to work this out sooner! Now we have no time!”
“What would time have to do with any of this? It already happened.”

Summary
Akira sits up so fast he doesn’t even realise he’s moved until the pain overtakes, and his phone drops to his lap. His head swims, legs a fiery agony at the sudden movement, so much so it takes what must be eons for it to simmer down. Once it does, he retrieves the phone, both of them simply staring at the screen.
“That’s not possible,” Morgana yowls, Akira wincing as they stare at the evidence.
“Apparently, it is,” Akira says, world view tilting once again, as if solid ground were even an option.
Goro Akechi has a Palace.
---
With the revelation of a new target, the Phantom Thieves face Goro Akechi's distorted desires.
But why does his Palace seem so straightforward? And why does it feel, for the first time, as if Akira's not meant to change a heart?
He'll fix things though. He always does. Especially when it comes to Goro.

Summary
“So I’m to be bait,” Akechi says flatly. “You’re serving me up.”
Ren can feel the grin on his face, and he can’t stop it. “I gotta open the store tomorrow, I only serve coffee.”
“Absolutely idiotic. Why would I agree to that?"
Ren shrugs one shoulder and leans back against the movie theater wall, smiling. He’s feeling light on his feet right now. It’s been a bad day, but the end is nice. “Call it penance.”
“Penance for what,” Akechi says.
His smile stays where it is as he glances away for a moment, then meets Akechi’s eyes again. “Being yourself.”
—
Summer vacation back in Tokyo was supposed to be two things: an exciting break from the mundanity of home, and a chance to see people he's missed so much it hurts. If he survives, Ren has good news for himself on both.
