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
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
“Foolish mortals!” Yaldabaoth’s shadow fell over them like a death shroud, “The sin of rebelling against a god is severe. As punishment, I banish you to other worlds unknown!”
Something changed in the air, like the snap charge of electricity after a thunder strike. No, this was more than that. The world shifted and changed and contorted, the weave of fate was unnaturally pulled by the God Of Control, creating fractals in the flow of time and space.
Joker’s teammates gasped as bizarre, otherworldly doors came into existence.
One, a pair of silver doors with alien markings, cracked open just a hair to reveal a large, terrifying eye. Another, a glowing paper door that would be at home in any vintage Japanese mansion. The third, a grand golden gate decorated with eyes and horned demons, bubbling black sludge dripped from its maw like tar. The final one was a fluctuating cloud of purple and black mist.

Summary
“Oh no, not this again,” Ann bemoans. “You guys are not fake dating me for some kind of weird game.”
“That’s fine,” Goro says, returning his gaze to Akira, who’s now casually leaning back in his seat. “Kurusu and I will fake date each other,” he states, unable to resist the appeal. “It’d be the easiest way to tell, after all.”
Or; Akira and Goro have a competition to decide who's the better fake boyfriend...by fake dating each other.

Summary
"Our plan was to use Sae's palace," Akira says. "We'd pull you into the Metaverse and let you kill her cognition of me in the interrogation room."
Was. It's useless now that Akechi knows, but Akira smiles as he speaks. He's cornered himself, mate in one, but it won't be the first time he's died. At worst he'll restart his probation again, back in April.
At best, they'll move to step two of his real plan, tearing apart Shido's conspiracy one crooked heart at a time until Akechi is as free as his past allows and resoundingly not dead. It'd be easy to resent the world for demanding Akira save it, but at least it's had the decency to let him save his friends along the way. All of them, even the one who only makes the job harder.

Summary
After the shattering of Maruki’s dream reality, the bell of Shujin High’s second year rings for Sumire, and a well-deserved break from gymnastics turns into just another limbo that can’t keep up forever.

If she accepts, the climb to the Olympics will have just begun.

Summary
Goro Akechi did not believe in the afterlife.
Oh, there was most certainly something after life, of course. Or at the very least, an accurate facsimile of something that could trigger upon apparent death. The collective unconscious was testament to that, along with the Shadows he fought as Shido’s attack dog and the healing items present in Palaces or the like. Mind over matter was a fact of Akechi’s life–especially collective mind over collective matter. If enough humans believed in a heaven, the Metaverse would create something from that belief. He doubted, however, that whatever was made would constitute any existence humanity could describe. It wasn’t like Akechi was interested in salvation.
So no, he didn’t believe in a traditional afterlife. He didn’t have time to believe in much of anything aside from boiling-hot rage, had no expectations of ever existing as anything more than a facsimile of himself in the sea of human cognition upon his demise.
Then he accidentally kidnaps a unicorn child, and whatever grim expectations he had get cheerfully shredded to bits.

A soulmate au where writing gets transferred to each other’s skin. As a result, they become long-distance friends… until Akechi lets his jealousy and anger get the better of him, that is.

“What makes a person good, Goro?”
Goro thinks for a second. He has always considered himself to be irrevocably bad—it was a fact of the universe, something he never gave thought to seriously because he knew the answer.
