Y/n has always been a student of Shujin Academy. Through her whole time at the school, she's felt like nothing more than a puppet. She never had a choice over her life. Her classes were chosen, her friends, and her own future has been planned. When the Phantom Thieves send out their calling card to Kamoshida, it becomes clear that this is her chance to change her destiny. However, it becomes clear that no matter what she does, she will never get away from being the puppet tangled in her own strings.

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?
