Thinking about this comic. Specifically, this face

HE'S SO DISAPPOINTED wet cat of a man right there. Love him for it ❤️

It's a holiday, it's the end of the world; nonetheless, you shouldn't be alone

the universe arcana + husband and akechi bitchass

2 genres of fanfiction:

1) put that guy into situations

2) take that guy OUT of situations for the love of GOD let them REST 

[lightningqueen11]

I get Akechi is a character not everybody is gonna like but it’s a little bothersome seeing people who don’t like him water his personality down to yaoi murder boy and. While that certainly is part of it (and I have talked about the misogyny in the Persona fandom at length and will again) but to me at least, the reason Akechi is so appealing as a character is that he’s the imperfect victim. He was used and abused like all the other thieves, but he doesn’t express it in a productive way like they did. He lashed out, he hurt others who were hurting, he threw away the person he’d grown closest too. And in the end, the story and characters still say that he was worth saving. That his death was a tragedy. That even after all he did, the thieves still agree the abuse he faced was monstrous. He gets to be the imperfect victim, and the game still asks you to remember that he still didn’t deserve to be victimized in the first place.

I'm on a roll! Made two more digital paintings with my tablet set to greyscale so I had no idea what the colors would be when it popped out, I'm pretty happy with em!

They were made with two different color noise images and obviously one of them was a LOT more vibrant than the other, but I'm very happy with em! Specifically the Ryoji drawing, I like that quite a bit.

[lightningqueen11]

Have a mediocre painting of my favorite twink that I made at like,, midnight last night. As a treat.

Alt versions, because I'm indecisive

Oh I can tell you how they reacted (source: new player)

I didn't actually think the protag died. It took me starting Episode Aigis and hearing them talk about me in the past tense to actually realize- "oh wait shit, the Internet wasn't lying to me, Makoto just fuckin DIED"

And then I watched the Persona 3 movies and cried

Main problem with Persona 3 Reload: opening movie doesn't hit the player over and over with "YOU WILL DIE REMEMBER YOU WILL DIE MOMENTO MORI MOTHERFUCKER YOU'RE GONNA DIE GONNA DIE AT THE END OF THIS GAME BE PREPARED TO DIE YOU WILL DIE REMEMBER YOU WILL DIE REMEMBER YOU WILL MEMENTO MORI DON'T FORGET THE DYING THING DEATH DEATH DEATH"

Some very important additions, I had no idea that conversation with Pharos existed but I actually adore it and think they really should've had Pharos interact with more of the main cast actually, he's such a little guy™

I need more people to write Aigis and Ryoji as friends, post-game or in some canon divergence au. They are made to be opposing forces, to clash for the fate of the world, but the purpose designated for them by their creators is not the purpose they chose to follow. They become friends in both because and in spite of what they are, because who would better understand their struggles? Neither is truly human, but they are both people. People who doubt their own humanity. They validate each other's struggles in a way no one else could, before affirming that yes, you are a person, you worked so very hard to be a person and I recognize that struggle and say that it is ok if you don't understand all the nuances of humanity right away, I won't judge you, because I am the exact same way.

Yes, Aigis initially saw Ryoji as dangerous, and he was, but I want them to grow past that. I want them to be able to look back at their first clash and think about how much they've grown since then. I want them to tell each other that the fact that they feel remorse for the lives lost is a clear sign of their newfound empathy for others, and that yes it's difficult, grappling with those feelings, but they should face them head on for the sake of those lost lives. I want them to come to see the other as one of their closest friends, the one they can turn to whenever they need.

Aigis and Ryoji should be friends, because they chose to be more than the enemies they were when they first met.

I think all the modern persona protagonists deserve to be a little bit of a God, as a treat. We already have Makoto being a door, maybe Yu could be a wall, and Ren is a carpet. But like, a really special wall and carpet, you know? Ones that could kill God.

Adult Ryoji because he deserves to grow up but also I punted all my headcanons onto him

Ryoji ends up becoming a photographer after high school. I imagine he'd really enjoy photography actually, preserving special moments for people to remember. He's actually really good at getting people to genuinely smile too, so being a photographer would be perfect for him.

He also runs a moderately successful blog to share his photos (he uses way too many emojis.) The blog's fans are mostly people who think he's hot (I know I'm not good at making attractive characters but I'm doing my best) even though only like, 15% of the blog's content includes photos of himself. Still, he has fun with his blog, and likes to travel around a lot to see new places and meet new people. That's what the other 85% of the blog's content is, photos of places he's been. Not necessarily tourist destinations, though he definitely adores those, just places he thinks are beautiful. A nice sunset, or a peaceful view. Ryoji loves just.. preserving those moments.

He's a bit of a fashion disaster honestly, wears the loudest, brightest colors unless someone (usually Makoto or, if she's around, Yukari) tells him to go change into something more sensible. The scarf is a staple in every outfit though, he wouldn't be himself without it.

And finally, of course he still flirts with pretty much everyone. The only thing growing up did was help him learn to read the room, but even then he's kind of a menace.

Headcanon time!

Ryoji, being whatever the fuck he is™ is constantly swarmed by shadows during the dark hour. But not in a 'they're trying to kill him' way, more in an 'involuntary cuddle pile with goop' way. Shadows are completely docile towards him, even friendly, because he's one of them and also stupid strong so he can protect them. He can order them to do simple tasks if he wants, though he probably never would because Ryoji either doesn't understand the goopy monsters that really seem to like him, or he's ashamed of himself and refuses to use his authority over shadows that way (y'all have no idea how much self-loathing I can slap into this little blorbo I swear to Nyx.)

Y'all ever find a comic that you think is pretty dang good and you enjoy a decent amount so you follow the account that's posting it and still the comic is good but the person making it is,, just kinda an asshole?

Like not even a bad person they're just kinda condescending or rude or smth when perhaps answering asks or talking about their comic on its tag and you really don't think that's worth abandoning their generally pretty good work for but it just kinda sours you to the whole thing? And you can understand why they would say something so rude/condescending because making a comic and dealing with people being kinda dumb is stressful but it still makes the comic itself feel.. blehh.

That's happened to me at least 5 times now, it's a strange phenomenon.
