Summary
Akira pauses at this, replacing confusion with flatness. "You're right. Whatever suits you. We can get right to it: Why have you been dodging all of my communication?"
"Frankly, Akira, let me ask you a question instead. Why do you feel that I owe you communication?"
Goro keeps ghosting Akira throughout January. It's better this way. It has to be.

Summary
Akira Kurusu has seen Goro Akechi die twice and somehow still manages to go on with his life after the fact. So, when what by all accounts appears to be a dream figuration of the Akechi he remembers appears into the Velvet Room, Akira knows better than to fall for the same old trick.
Until Dream Akechi starts quoting Descartes. Then it's chaos.

Bookmarker's Notes
One of the best P5 socmed AU in this whole site. In the whole world even.
The social media experience is encapsulated *perfectly* and the users and fandom feel so ALIVE. The narrative voice is perfectly balanced between the yearning and the silly, and the book's fragments at the start of the chapter add SO MUCH to the experience and the characters.
I'm insane about this. -
The Happiness Game! by engraved (Ludicrously_Idiotic), shouldbeworking

Summary
The Phantom Thieves have nearly secured their route through Maruki's Palace. There’s only one section left: The Twilight Corridor. A paradise where everything is perfect, and everyone is always smiling.
In order to enter that place, the Thieves must first prove they've "completed orientation" and can be "happy." There are points, there is a scoreboard, and they’re locked together in an experimental space where wishes can be granted by simply saying them aloud. Everyone has to individually earn 100 happiness points, or no one is leaving.
So what is “happiness,” really? How does Maruki define happiness? What the hell is a quantifiable happiness point? Is there any way around this? Don’t these stupid kids realize this is a trick to get them to fall back into the thrall of Maruki’s reality? And why can’t Goro earn any fucking points?
(Or: I've been watching too much Dropout Game Changer and I’ve built an Akechi torture chamber.)
Includes illustrations by the amazing engraved!
