My Key Item (Joker X Futaba) Persona 5 Royal
After months of getting to know and love Futaba Sakura, knowing that she is the one he wants to spend the rest of his life with, it's all ripped away by one man. Takuto Maruki has decided that people cannot be allowed to think for themselves, and that they should never have to feel pain, well, unless you interfere with his plan. After being thoroughly trounced by the Phantom Thieves, Maruki makes one last ditch attempt to break the theives, and kills Futaba. In his blind rage, Akira Kurusu, otherwise known as Joker takes matters into his own hands, and stops the mad God in his tracks. Time reverts to its original self, with Akechi dead and gone and Maruki and Futaba alive and well, and Akira in Juvinile Detention. After being freed from prison, he finds out that something went wrong when the timeline was restored. Futaba knows him not as her lover, but merely as his friend. Now Akira must find a way to cope with this new life in Hometown, while trying to juggle the return of the Metaverse, and Futaba tries to find her way through the complex feelings she has for Joker, but can't quite explain, as well as the dreams that almost feel like memories. Will she push through and recover her memories and her love? Or will she and Akira both fade into the Mementos of what they have lost. I took a couple liberties with events and the Timeline, but overall, I stayed fairly close to the original game's story. This is a passion project that sprung to mind while driving, and now I'm hyperfixated... Welp, time to churn out a book. ENJOY READING IT!!

ꜰᴀʟꜱᴇ ᴡɪᴛɴᴇꜱꜱ | goro akechi
You are an ambitious young journalist working freelance for a major Tokyo publication, chasing leads on the elusive Phantom Thieves. You're smart, intuitive, and determined to uncover the truth behind the recent rise in mental shutdowns and mysterious confessions. Your latest lead? Goro Akechi-the charming, brilliant, and media-beloved detective prince who always seems one step ahead of the Phantom Thieves. When you confront Akechi at a press event with questions he doesn't expect, he's intrigued. Instead of shutting you down, he offers exclusive "cooperation"-he'll leak confidential information about the investigation to you... on the condition that you publish only what he wants you to. It's clearly manipulation, but the leads are real. You agree, partly to get closer to the truth-and partly because Akechi's mask keeps slipping when he's alone with you. Soon, you're locked in a game of shadows and seduction, uncovering pieces of a twisted puzzle that implicates him far deeper than you ever imagined. As tension builds between you, you must decide: Will you expose him? Or will you risk everything to save the boy behind the lies?
