Its a sunny Wednesday in the beginning of June. Madarame's heart had just been changed and Akira and the other Phantom Thieves have been laying low. 

He looked around his classroom, the other students had been, unsurprisingly, talking about him. The raven sighed and went back to doodling random Shadows and Personas in the corner of his already done English work.  

Akira's been in Tokyo for a few months now. He had been expecting the rumors to go away with all the Phantom Thieves business going on, but nothing's really changed. 

The bell for next class rang and Ms Chouno  quickly reviewed what they learned, passed homework and left the room. Akira's next class was home economics. He really loved this class. It involved a lot of the things he loved doing, like cooking. Akira packed his textbooks into his bag and made his way to the Practice Building.

----

Akira isn't really the type to get really excited over small things, like winning something from the crane machine. Today however, he was very excited for Home Ec.

The teacher announced they will be making curry, the one thing Akira was the best at cooking. Thanks to Sojiro's lessons and making it for Palace and Mementos expeditions, he's gotten pretty good at it. 

The teacher asked everyone to pair up with someone. Akira looked around the room, looking for a potential partner. This was the one class where he was with no one he was friends with, so he wasn't surprised when everyone already had a partner, which he has to admit, he was a little saddened by that.

The teacher signals everyone to begin. The counters had everything he needed, except for a few ingredients he usually uses when he makes Sojiro's curry. He goes to the back and gathers some apples and other ingredients.

Akira returns to his counter to be greeted by everyone whispering about him.

"Guys look, it's the transfer student.."

"I wonder what his curry will taste like. Probably like dirty gym socks."

"What if he poisons it?! He's gonna kill the teacher!"

"Haha it will be so bad, I can already tell. Might as well call it Mystery Food X."

Akira grinned, knowing damn well those rumors are going to go right down the toilet. He ignored the whispers and got work.

--

Akira lifted a spoon and tried a small bit of the curry. He smiled and nodded. 'Perfect..'

He started to plate everything together and he grinned wider as he heard everyone's words.

"Woah.. Do you guys smell that?"

"Yeah, it smells amazing! It's coming from near the window."
