    Summary

    Something, or someone, somewhere in the universe wants Dorian and Dariax together. And something, someone, somewhere keeps literally pushing them together any chance they get.

    A few choice moments when these two idiots are close together, and then the crescendo of those moments.

    Mild, very mild spoilers for Ep 5.

    Summary

    You’re mine now, Dorian, the Spider Queen says. I thought it couldn't hurt to remind you.

    “I don’t need a reminder,” Dorian replies. He is dimly aware he is gasping for air, his breathing hoarse and terrified, shattering the silence. Up above, the stars continue to spin. Down below, Opal lies motionless and cold. “I said you could have me, in exchange for their safety. When I make a promise that important, I keep it.”

    Between one breath and the next, he is back in the tent. Across from him, Opal chatters brightly to Dariax about Byroden’s beauty shops. Orym sits by the fire, polishing Fy’ra’s retractable staff with a small piece of cloth. Fearne braids her hair in the far corner, humming softly to herself. A light summer rain taps against the tent, filling the air with glints of rainbow light.

    Something trickles down Dorian’s cheek. When he reaches a hand up, his fingers come back wet with tears.

    You promised you’d never betray them, the Spider Queen whispers. Can you keep that promise too?

    ***

    It takes a month to reach the jungle. Dorian Storm offers himself up as champion - and doubts, and doubts, and doubts.

    Summary

    What do you mean?” Ryuji tilted his head.

    “It’s called Just Die. It reduces the SP needed for Insta kill skills like Mudoon or 'Please Die for Me' to zero.”

    Ryuji and Ann blinked and blinked again trying to figure out what Morgana is trying to say. He watched as the gears churn in their head and they come to an epiphany, their faces growing horrified at the implications.

    “Wait, you are saying. Joker can insta-kill literally everything in this palace. WITHOUT using SP at all?!” Ryuji clarified in astonishment because there is no way there isn’t a catch to this. “Without repercussion?!”

    “Yes. That is exactly what I’m saying.”

    Or the NG+ au where Akira knows more than he lets on, the Phantom Thieves start to suspect one of their own, and Akechi is in for a wild ride.

    Summary

    Akechi Goro is alive – one of his biggest regrets is alive and standing in front of him looking like he’s ready for some highbrow sports photo shoot when what he really needs is five years intensive therapy and at least five more steps away from Akira.

    No, no, no – the universe is not allowed to shove this on him so soon after it just flung him three fucking years into the past.

    (Sometimes the only way to save someone is to let them save you first.)
    (Huge canon divergence. Akira's past and future affect him big time.)

    Summary

    Akira starts to wonder if all the suspiciously date-like outings Akechi keeps taking him on are in fact dates, and resolves to find out once and for all--but how do you do that when neither of you will stop playing 4D chess against each other in your heads?

    Timeline is late September, at the end of Okumura's dungeon and right before Akechi joins the party.
