Where are my federation enjoyers !!!! I need someone just as insane as I am to spill my cult fed thoughts to as I write this thing
I’ll give you one of the points that is SOO very obvious
LIKE THE WORKERS LIVE ON THE ISLAND???? THEY GET PAID WITH THE ISLAND CURRENCY?? THEY RELY ON THE FEDERATION MED CENTERS?? THEY ENCOURAGE YOU BRING YOUR FAMILY??? Have you thought how odd it is and downright terrifying it is to rely your entire life on your job?? With what money are you leaving the island. Whats to say they can take away what they are giving you? You have nothing to defend yourself with because everything belongs to the federation. WHY ENCOURAGE A HEAVY RELIANCE ON THE FEDERATION???? THAT IS A CULTTT

What are your ryomina headcanons? I've loved these two since I played P3 FES, and I'm so excited to get back into the fandom^^
hi!! thank you so much for the ask, welcome back to the p3 fandom, it's always a delight to see new and old ryomina fans alike! 🥺💛💙
as for headcanons, here's a "few" i that i tend to come back to a lot! my interpretations of them are influenced from both the source material and other's fanworks, so i've linked to them as i saw fit! hcs in no particular order under the cut because oops this got long (900 word bullet point list, mentions of reload content up to 1/1)
minato's hair is dyed blue (hair originally brown, you can see it in his roots!) and he has a beauty mark on under his left eye. i like mirror imagery and there's definitely a few arts i've rb'd that portray them this way :) (e.g. this one by feliichu and this one by marasschino)
as far as i'm concerned the bathhouse scene from the manga where ryoji's hair down = similar shape to minato? that is canon to me. this art from xierru is a fun depiction of hair down ryoji :D
ryoji is homeless. everyone say thank you foxmulder_whereartthou for this awesome fic it's why i have the headcanon! but like seriously. we have no idea where ryoji lives and i could believe this.
minato dying at the end of the game is sad to an outsider's POV BUT!!! ryomina gets to be together in death for the rest of their lives (this illustration from mafuwara is a gorgeous representation of them as nyx avatar + the seal)!
speaking of the seal, they are like telepathically communicating to me in the great seal together. (mymp3 had a comic wip with this. give it a looksie :D)
ryoji likes cuddling with minato because he's warm :) (something something orpheus has fire affinity, minato is warm by extension and ryoji is cold because he's death)
ryoji's camera roll is filled with pictures of minato! ryoji... loves life, to me. and i feel that photography and journaling are perfect ways of expressing gratitude and capturing the moments in life that are most important to you :3
my other favorite activity for these two is stargazing- i feel like it's something they could appreciate either in life or death (looking at the stars from the great seal...)! they do a bit of this in the fic eurydice's vow by crescentmoontea (P5R spoilers, takes place in third sem it's a very fun fic concept).
between ryoji and minato i feel like ryoji was the one who fell in love first- and it doesn't really click in place for minato that he loves ryoji until december hits (appriser reveal + ryoji transforming into thanatos). its about the realization that ryoji was with him for his whole life and that he gets him like no one else does.
ryoji is like a sad and wet puppy who is so scared minato won't like him back. he is so scared of being rejected by minato to me like. this boy straight up deflates after he does his "i know i said i wanted us to be friends, but... i actually want to be something more." / "what about you?" on 12/1 ???
AND SPEAKING of wet puppy ryoji. ryoji is like. every animal in the world to me. he's a bird. he's a cat. etc. and also ryoji knows every language in the world ever and uses it to express his love for minato. see this fic from superheroics to see what i mean.
both of them are lactose intolerant. "this isn't lactose, it's milk!" i definitely think ryoji would make himself sick eating ice cream and milk he doesn't know what lactose is. (i made a silly poll about this once and the tags were very entertaining.)
i see minato as transmasc or nonbinary depending on the day (schrodinger's headcanons babey they're simultaneously true and not true at the same time!!). either way he's not cis to me and ryoji is like. His Gender. anyway go read this fic by nail_gun for t4t ryomina :D !
ryomina are WEIRD GUYS TO ME!!! they are so strange and they understand each other better than anyone else because of the circumstances of their relationship!!! if you asked them to do the "i wonder what i taste like" meme i think they'd start biting each other (affectionate) tbh but that's just me.
after ryoji gives minato the music box in 12/31 on reload, minato listens to the music box every night in january. this boy has insomnia and also chronic illness to me (things that housing death does to you). but i think he finds comfort in the melody and memories he made with ryoji.
in general, i think it's fun to imagine minato taking ryoji to places and show him things he's interested in! i feel that ryoji takes a lot of interest in minato's life, this isn't really a hc because in reload, minato DOES give ryoji a tour of the school (11/9) and possibly port island (11/12). but ITS CUTE OK! (tangentially related fanwork: this series of doodles from vinnigami: 1, 2, and 3)
not a hc but minato's kindness is like the backbone of their relationship and i think we would not have the ryomina we know and love today if minato wasn't such a kind soul. oh minato.... we can learn so much from you... like ryoji did!
anyway! that's all the hcs that i could think of, thank you for the ask! i had a lot of fun answering this, these two mean a lot to me 💛💙
i hope you don't mind the links to the fanart and fanfic as well, the fanwork people have made for ryomina have really made an imprint on me! if you want to see more of them, i definitely recommend looking through my tag for them because oh. i got a lot of them reblogged alright 😂 (<- SOOO NORMAL)

Now that I think about it it's kind of absurd that Vaggie is the only exorcist who's ever been abandoned and left in hell. It honestly seems like a huge needless risk. since Lute did what she did to Vaggie, she must've already known angels could be harmed with angelic steel. Why else would she try cutting off her wings and ripping her eye out if she didn't think that could harm her. Just to fuck with her?
(Which opens up the can of worms that is the fact that angels can be harmed without angelic weapons and it happens countless times onscreen through impact, falling debris, Lute ripping her arm off— you'd think if only angelic steel could cause them harm all of that wouldn't? Harm them then? In my rewrite they're extremely durable to these things and just quickly regenerate when they lose limbs through other means.)
If Vaggie had a functional brain, she could've easily put two and two together that angels could be harmed with angelic weapons (if she didn't already know? Which she should have???) and then shared this knowledge with others, arming them with knowledge that could spark war. Not just that but she could spill any and all Intel she had about heaven and the exorcists. And they just left her there? Alive?
I doubt in the countless years the exterminations have been going on Vaggie was the only one to ever falter, and Lute was the only one to ever see this kind of behavior and react this way (unless Lute is an idiot who wasn't even supposed to do what she did to Vaggie but nobody cared). The only way I could see this possibly being the case is if the exterminations were a recent development (like a few decades but even then. Kind of a stretch) which I don't think they are but hey correct me if I'm wrong.
