broke: haru hates akechi and doesn't talk to him ever again after he comes back

woke: haru chooses to be kind without forgiveness and akechi doesn't know how to live with her genuine compassion because it'd be so much easier if she hated him instead

[welcome-to-the-shit-library]

I just tbink its so fucked up of Atlus to introduce a character who revolves around an overwhelming desire to be wanted and then have him revived specifically because another character wanted him

Nothing

My persona 3 au that I need to actually write

[pryntery-moved]

Someone asked what Yusuke, Haru, and Makoto's living situation is like in the (meme) roommate au

... Yeah

(context: I made a P5R post-game roommates au and the room assignment is:

(though I changed Haru, Makoto, and Yusuke's location to near Ueno park)

Genuinely curious if anyone's interested in hearing more abt this au? It's eating my brain

HARU WRITES WITH HIS LEFT HAND!!!! VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION (im insane)

[katagawajr]

one thing i will say about the p5 spinoff games (strikers and tactica) that i’m eternally positive about is that they both understood how little development haru got in the original and make an effort to try to include her story in the main narrative somehow….

idk it just makes me very happy to see at least an attempt at giving haru more time to shine and i love that

[argentsunshine]

being normal about the interrogation room plan and the phantom thieves again

Me: Ok, but in retrospect when I really think about it: Haru basically deciding to take her father's company back to it's old roots on her own terms while also doing what she loves (ex: gardening) can actually be a subtle "fuck you" to him and his views. In this essay I will-

Me, personally, I am obsessed with the idea of MC stealing (or asking for---depending on who) one of their favorite ghoul's t-shirts to just wear around in the dorm.

So chronologically Yusuke goes after Ryuji's but my friend is gonna explain Yusuke's so its Haru's turn

Astarte's Adelaide's Meadow

Heavenly Virtue: Charity

Palace Ruler: Haru Okumura

Treasure: Core of the Meadow (Cognitive), Father's death certificate (Reality)

Haru's palace is her father's space station crash landed onto Earth. The Sci-fi aesthetic of the station is destroyed by plants and greenery that covers the palace. It manifests this way from Haru's nurturing and caring nature being mixed in with her complicated relationship with Okumura foods and her father. Adelaide is the name of the saint her new persona is but at the start of the palace, the Infiltrators are lead to believe its called "Astarte's Meadow" as Haru is still renovating the space station and hasn't updated the sign.

Shadow Haru is a forest witch with a long white dress and her short hair turned long and luscious, reaching down to her fingertips.

Shadow Haru is well regarded in her palace with the shadows actually addressing her as "mother", fitting her nurturing nature and her virtue of Charity. Despite this however, Shadow Haru can be quite cruel as in the real world, all Okumura food chains along with other businesses under her control have a unique system of payment. If you're kind and virtuous, you can get items severely discounted or free of charge but if you're judged as evil and or a detriment to society, items are charged at higher prices which can hike up to millions of yen for a simple burger.

This is a problem for the Infiltrators who are judged to be problematic due to them opposing the Phantom Thieves. Hilariously, Akechi's prices are far higher than Sumire and Maruki's but even Maruki, who gave the Thieves therapy, can't get a remotely reasonable price so the Infiltrators will be getting supplies by a different means which will be detailed in another post.

Gameplay wise, her palace has fetch quests as to proceed you have to give vegetables to cognitions. These vegetables are the ones she grew for the Phantom Thieves so can't be found anywhere outside of her palace. Your etiquette with the cognitions will be carefully watched as if your anything short of polite and kind with them, Haru will be alerted and you will likely get into a fight. Aside from fetch quests, you also have to go around collecting parts from the wreckage of the space station to create a laser in order to be able to access her treasure as its hidden away under vines so thick, it could break the Infiltrators' weapons if they tried to force it.

Shadow Haru's distortion views her cognitions as her children and as their mother, it is her duty to ensure they grow happy and healthy in a world rid of corruption and greed. It is from this distortion that causes her Shadow's feelings on her father to look very different. Regular Haru loves her father and mourns him, Shadow Haru has a far more negative view of her father, considering him a greedy spaceman who abandoned her for a utopia he didn't make it to and she chose to stay in his space station to completely wreck it and turn it into her home base as she works with the Phantom Thieves for their utopia.

"I really love my home, the land it's on is lovely and the greenhouse is coming along very nicely. I just wish the house itself wasn't so big. It's lonely living there without anyone else."

[ancient-day]

I simply think it's a bit silly that the PT are acting like Makoto giving her sister the calling card is asking too much of her when they're also asking Akira to put his literal life on the line in the same plan.
