    Summary

    “I hope this is okay,” Goro says, fiddling with the cuffs of the shirt. It's nothing special; it’s white and plain, the sort of button down that every twenty-year-old guy has stuffed in the back of his closet. The light fabric hangs awkwardly on Goro’s slim shoulders—and, for whatever reason, he has it buttoned all the way up to the top.

    The shirt doesn't look bad, but it looks like it belongs to another man. Akira takes a moment to swallow those implications lest he choke on them.

    It's impossible not to fall in love with Goro Akechi, he thinks again, sheepish.

    (Or: Goro borrows a shirt—then a hoodie. Then another shirt. Then... things spiral out of control.)

    Summary

    “Mementos is gone, yes, and both the God of Control and his successor have withdrawn, but there is…a remnant, sticking to the other side like a thorn into flesh. With the power of a Trickster, it can be safely removed.”

    (Akechi’s got a Palace, sort of, and Akira’s the only one who can enter it. Now he just has to figure out what he’s supposed to do in a Palace with no Treasure and no Shadow--and if his tag-along even wants him to see what’s in there.)

    Summary

    Akechi Goro is a fascinating mystery and probably dangerous, Akira thinks. It would be stupid to pass up the opportunity to learn more about him.

    Kurusu Akira is a fascinating mystery and probably dangerous, Goro thinks. It would be stupid to pass up the opportunity to learn more about him.

    And after all, there’s no time like the present. Why make a vague promise to stay in touch when they could seize the moment right after their first meeting? Why not make the first move before their opponent even realises the match has started?

    It’s not like spending the day together could somehow change the game completely...

    (OR: Akira accidentally speedruns Akechi’s entire confidant track on the day they meet, and opens up some new options in the process.)

    Summary

    Akira looked over his shoulder at Ryuji and Ann, who were staring at Akechi and Akira in confusion, and flashed a cheeky grin. “Nah,” said Akira breezily. “This is my sugar daddy!” Promptly after, Akira stumbled, and Akechi’s iron-grip around his arm tightened, catching him.

    “You belong in the gutter,” muttered Akechi, throwing him in the passenger side and slamming the door.

    Two years after a public panic attack forced him to abandon his title as a shogi prodigy and a lucrative career, Akira Kurusu is suffocating under his parents' debt, balancing multiple part-time jobs, and barely clinging to his university enrollment. When forced to join an extracurricular to maintain his scholarship, Akira is forced to enter the Chess Association, a fake club Debate Prince Goro Akechi concocted to give himself a private club room.

    After being evicted from his apartment, Akira is assigned to dorm with Goro Akechi, and are forced to learn how to tolerate one another!
