Summary
It's been a decade since the Phantom Thieves of Hearts disbanded, and Ren's life is going well -- he's got a new job in Tokyo, he's reconnecting with his old friends, and he's starting to get a handle on mourning the life he used to lead and the boy he couldn't save. When he runs into an eerily familiar stranger, however, everything starts to split at the seams.
Or, Amamiya Ren buys cheap coffee at the wrong place, at the wrong time, and all the grief he's tried to pack up and ignore comes back with a vengeance.

Summary
At 17, Akira Kurusu traversed the collective unconscious to tear the cruelty from the hearts of those who preyed on the weak. At 24, he’s stuck trying to change the world with a political science degree and a job at an obscure leftist news publication. It’s hardly the future he imagined for himself as Joker, but while traveling to Okinawa for work, he runs into an old confidant who's as stuck in the past as he is.

Summary
An irritated Pokemon might tell you to stop what you're doing. An irritated animal will probably just attack you. Pokemon, for all their power, would be open books and a breeze to care for to any competent animal handler on Earth. After a fiery death, a professional zookeeper who never outgrew Pokemon games ends up in the world of Pokemon. The entire world is thrown onto its side.

Summary
If you’d asked Ren to make a list of things Akechi might do after surviving certain death, twice, he would not have put ‘continue his dumb celebrity career’ on it anywhere. Like, not even as a back-up option. Not even close.
Akechi shrugs. “My agent called. There was still interest. I need money to live. Do you expect me to get a job at 777?”
Akechi’s face is on the 777. His smile glimmers out at the world, his eyes sparkling with secrets, as if nothing could be more coyly, erotically compelling than a cheap can of iced tea. The photographer seems to have been very, very interested in the way Akechi’s long fingers in black leather gloves set off the sweet curve of his lower lip. Every time Ren works a shift he has to look at this poster for hours. And the advertising campaign is working, so he also has to look at the mini-version on the special limited edition cans of iced tea that everyone is suddenly buying.

Summary
He runs as quickly as his feet carry him, passing containers, shelves, only a few meters separating him from the front door. He hears the shouts of the Yakuza behind him as they finally spot him — but they won’t be fast enough to shoot, Akira has already reached the door, he yanks down the handle, pushes open the door—
And comes face to face with a ghost.

Summary
Contrary to popular opinion, being a phantom thief does not pay well.
Shadows leave nothing behind, and the palace’s treasures barely cover the gear his team needs to stay alive. Left with no other options, Akira must turn to the real world for a solution, or more specifically: he starts secretly crossdressing at a Maid Cafe.
It’s hard keeping all the different aspects of his life separate, but Akira is determined to make it work.
That is, until a certain detective finds his new place of employment.
AKA: how being broke, getting hired as a maid, and living two universes to the left of canon changes everything.

Summary
“Futaba.” Akira pushes up the fake glasses he's relieved to have again. He doesn't know what he'd do without his mask. “Calm down. Can you start from the beginning?”
She sighs, hugging herself tighter. “Sorry. I, um…well. It's…easier if I just show you.”
Futaba pulls out her phone and opens the MetaNav. The troubled expression on her face disappears, replaced by mischief. “You might wanna sit down for this.” She doesn't wait for him to sit before activating the MetaNav's voice recognition. “Akechi Goro, Detective Prince."
“Candidate found.”
With the successful execution of their plan to change Niijima Sae's heart and deceive Akechi Goro, the Phantom Thieves have overcome their most dangerous obstacle yet—but one obstacle still remains. Akechi has yet to let the name of his boss and their ultimate target slip. The Thieves are at a loss for how to proceed, until one Sakura Futaba reveals a game-changing discovery that may unravel the secrets they seek.
Akechi Goro has a Palace.

Summary
“Come on, Ren-kun,” Yukari nudges Ren as he slumps. “I dove into being Pink Argus with little experience myself, and I haven’t regretted it since. Maybe you’ll feel the same.”
Ren thinks about it. His life really couldn’t and shouldn’t revolve completely around the shadow world, he supposes. And he’s not obligated to do any more than this if acting doesn’t agree with him after all.
Ann’s going to freak. Futaba is going to lose her shit.
“You remember the Phantom Thieves of Hearts business a few years back?” The director asks. “It won’t be a complete one to one, but I do have to admit that this series’ plot is loosely based on it.”
Okay, now that’s just unfair. Now Ren has to take the role.
So that’s how Ren becomes a Featherman Ranger.
Or, Amamiya Ren becomes a Featherman actor, bases his character off Akechi, and the real Akechi Goro disastrously simps from afar.

Summary
Someone’s staring at him.
“Am I in the way?” Akira asks nervously, and the stranger shakes himself out slightly. He doesn’t stop staring at Akira silently. Akira moves out of the way anyways.
“…Kurusu?” the stranger finally says, which is really weird, because that’s Akira’s name.

Akira Kurusu can’t remember anything before the last few months. But that’s normal for an amnesiac, right?Bookmarked by TwistedTale

Summary
"Senpai…?"
It was only thanks to years of practice that he didn't flinch. They should give him a goddamn award.
What was she doing here? Well, not like it mattered. He'd just go up to the till and-
A hand closed around his wrist. He turned sharply around.
Sumire Yoshizawa was standing beside him, her face a blatant display of abject horror.
"It's you.."
"I'm sorry, I believe you've mistaken me for someone else," he said, cooly prying his arm from her grip.
He only shortened the distance between him and the cashier by a single step before she spun back into view, gripping his biceps.
"Akechi-senpai," she said, much firmer this time. "You remember me, don't you?"
This time, he failed to hide his twinge of irritation.
"Leave me alone," he growled.
Her face pinched, lips trembling. Cold horror washed down his back.
"Don't cry," he said, aghast.-
Akechi is determined to do this alone. Sumire is determined not to let him.Bookmarked by TwistedTale

Summary
Joker replied by thrusting a travel cup of coffee towards Crow. “It’s a little cold. I hope you don’t mind.”
Crow gave a small wave. “No thank you. I’m picky about my coffee.”
“I know someone who also says they’re picky about their coffee. They say they don’t like sweets either, but I’ve been sneaking sugar in their coffee for the past week, and they told me that I’ve been making their coffee better than usual lately.” Joker twisted the cap off the cup and took a sip.
“Glad to know that you openly admit to poisoning people.”
“Yeah, and what are you gonna do about it? Arrest me?”
