Hi, I'm Katie, a struggling biology PhD candidate by day and fanfic writer by night. I've been a Persona fan since I first played 4 on the Vita in high school, and I've been writing and publishing fic for about five years now! I'm a big fan of sci-fi, fantasy, and intrigue, with one of my favorite books being the manga Liar Game (I can't wait for the anime!). When writing fanfic though I love canon-compliant angst and a good enemies to lovers story!  

Akechi may not have recognized him earlier, but even the hands of time can’t hide him from Akechi this close. The instant Akechi recognizes him, he reacts in the most characteristic way possibleβ€”violently.

With a click, Akechi’s seatbelt rockets off his body. He makes a move for the door, but Amamiya beats him to it, holding its lock down. Akechi glowers, pointedly staring at the window as if he intends to break out.

Feeling responsible for the conflict, Maruki throws his hands up in a gesture of peace. β€œI assure you that I mean no harm, Akechi-kun.”

β€œShove that sentiment up your ass,” Akechi snarls, the smell of alcohol heavy on his breath. Maruki knows that he has no chance of resolving the situation.

Amamiya, however, is more than capable of soothing Akechi. He takes off both their gloves so that he can reassuringly thumb the back of Akechi’s hand and presses a tender kiss to his lips. Akechi’s frown neutralizes, then gives way to the smallest and subtlest but undeniably there smile Maruki’s ever seen. Amamiya gently laughs at the change in his attitude and whispers something in Akechi’s ear.

The scene before him is so intimate that Maruki feels like a voyeur. He fixes his gaze on his steering wheel, mindlessly tapping along its smooth surface as he waits.

An expectant cough breaks Maruki out of his monotony. He turns back to see Amamiya nudging Akechi.

Akechi scoffs, looking out the window instead of forward...

The graphic is in full greyscale. The scene is outside Leblanc at night, sometime during the second semester, with dramatic light cast from the lamp on the outer wall. Goro Akechi is taking his leave and halfway down the step, but Joker stops him by his sleeve. They’re both miserable over what Goro leaving means for them. Art by: ghostsjogging. The text reads:

Contributor Applications 
Spot Art Apps close Dec 5th

3 days left to apply for spot art

In the top right corner are Goro, Morgana and Joker; They are each holding a sign with a checkmark, question mark, and no symbol, respectively. An arrow beside them points towards text that reads: See thread for app checklist

A illustration on chibi style with the full party of Yakuza Like a dragon. Ichiban is singing on the karaoke with Omelette and Nancy. Adachi is touching Nanba's hair while he drinks. Saeko, Eri and Seonhee are drinking together, same way Zhao and Joon-gi are doing it at the piano side. The barman is cleaning a glass behind the bar counter

Fanfiction etiquette is incredibly simple, actually. Don't like it, don't read it. No one is forcing you to, which is why it looks ridiculous to complain about it, especially if you were content warned. AO3 tags + "exclude" is one of the greatest reading tools ever. Use them properly and voila!
