I love how Arakawa clearly wrote detailed backstories for her characters and just like… never elaborates on them. I found an old interview where she was asked why she didn’t include a resolution for Hawkeye and Mustangs goals and her response was essentially “cause this story is about Ed :)”
uhhhh okay this is a little outside my intended stated scope for this blog but i've had a complete bug up my ass about this idea for the past several days and listen...wg is arguably a type of tf right. the type you can do at home (i have)
scenario 10-ish years out from the events of p4 and souji, still loving his beef bowls but no longer aided by a teen boy metabolism, gets fat 🥴 he and yosuke run into each other again at some kind of class reunion after several years of being "off" in some kind of on-again-off-again thing. souji is completely un- self conscious, yosuke is much more comfortably Out at this point in his life but still has every kind of internalized toxic gay -ism about other men's bodies because Of Course, until this completely breaks his narrow brain open for the second time in his life. lmfao.
also featuring my Literally-Visited-Upon-Me-Prophet-Like-In-A-Dream headcanon where yosuke has the world's most cringefail ill-advised short-lived crash and burn fling with Dr. Takuto Maruki and YES i WILL in fact be elaborating further upon this whether anyone wants me to or not
