“Okay, weakling, hold still.” She pushed a fresh cotton boll drenched in iodine against his face. Geez, had these detectives really had to go this ham on him? If Makoto’s big sister hadn’t stepped in to get Hibiki out of there, he might have died, Akechi or no!

“…I have the footage, you know. I came in late because I had to set things up in Sae’s Palace, but I saw enough. I saved it. Speak the word and I’ll leak it to every major news site in and out of Japan.” She didn’t add that she’d happily sniff out Akechi and strangle him, or send Ryuji to do it, as well. The last thing he needed right now was to be reminded of ‘Crow.’

“I think that’s most of it,” she concluded, tossing the boll with its brethren in the filled-to-overflowing bin by the counter. Sojiro would have to take that out before opening tomorrow, Biki was in no state to do it. “There’s painkillers left in here, you need those?”

Her legs trembled when she got off the train. All in all today had gone pretty well, but she would be happy to be dropped off at LeBlanc, get some curry in her, and then destress with some serious video gaming. She was exhausted. Using her phone to get off the boarding platform, she turned her gaze up to find the right exit.

“Hey Inari,” she said, “Do you wanna stay for...” She got no response to the nickname, so she looked over her shoulder to see if Yusuke had already left the platform. “...curry...”

He wasn’t there. Oh god, she was alone. On a train station. In Tokyo. Not Shibuya, but during rush hour. Had she gotten off on the wrong stop or had he gotten distracted? No real time to think about it, she felt herself getting light-headed with panic. Where the fuck was Yusuke?

“Hmmmm...” She fiddled with the book in her hands, scooting a little closer to Hibiki as if she could hide from people’s gazes behind him. She’d agreed to come to the bookstore with him today. Normally there was nothing she couldn’t either look up online if she needed to know it, and nothing she couldn’t buy online if she really needed a physical book, but she had promised she’d make an effort to go out more like a normal person.

She’d regretted her decision the second she’d stepped over the threshold, but she couldn’t run off and leave Biki standing here alone. Especially since without him there to protect her, the street outside was way more crowded and intimidating.

At the mention of takeout and Featherman though, she perked up, looking up at him and beaming. “I can totally get the latest movie! It’s not... entirely legal, but who cares!” Law enforcement had bigger fish to fry, courtesy of, well, them. “So should we get takeout at the beef bowl place of legend, Big Bang Burger, or somewhere else? It better not be healthy or I will bean you in the head with Mona!”

Oracle and Necronomicon

Futaba’s absolutely not a fighter, but her goggles and Persona make her a singularly resourceful young lady when it comes to exploring palaces and fighting shadows.

Oracle’s goggles are the first tool she has at her disposal. While following Joker around, she sees the HUD the player does, minus the key legend in the bottom. She has a dynamic map, the palace security level, points of interest, shadow levels relative to the party, and all that good stuff. She also stores any information they find like passwords and an up-to-date inventory roster, and can see the party’s personas, health and energy levels, and equipment on the fly.

The goggles also have a normal zoom and night mode.

Battle is much more fast-paced and hectic, as well as having much more variables she has to keep track of. The tools for that are not on her goggles but in Necronomicon, so the first course of action for any battle, regardless of if Joker, the enemy, or no one ambushed the other, is for Futaba to enter her Persona and run the battle support protocol.

The protocol gives her a more detailed rundown of all fighting party member’s health, energy, status ailments, and stat boosts. In addition, it lets her cast Kaja and healing skills. As her understanding of Necronomicon and its function grows, she can do far greater things, such as hack an ambushed enemy to their knees right away, pull up a shield to save someone from an otherwise fatal attack, or shift the party composition even without the consent of the others.

She also gets a birds-eye view of the battlefield due to her elevated position, complete immunity from enemy attacks because the party provides a distraction and Necronomicon is nearly impenetrable anyway, and can pull up the affinity readouts for both the party and the enemy shadows in less than a second. Necronomicon’s built-in comms allow her to communicate with the party whenever she wants.

Sometimes, she can even alter the battlefield to suit the party’s needs. However, outside of her own Palace, this takes ridiculous effort and much more time than any of her other skills, so Futaba only does it as a last resort.

[oracletrick-a]

Sakura or Isshiki?

Futaba’s had two surnames over the course of her life, born Isshiki and adopted to be given the Sakura name. 99% of the time, she uses Sakura because her birth family mostly consists of assholes as far as she knows, and the less she’s associated with them the better. Besides, Sojiro might as well be her real dad, so she sees no reason NOT to use Sakura.

However, there is one relative she does deeply care for and misses intensely: her mother Wakaba. It’s thanks to Wakaba’s research that Futaba, and through her the other Phantom Thieves, understand cognitive psience as well as they do, and Futaba feels a connection again after years of fearing she was responsible for her death.

So, when she gets serious especially in the field of cognition, Futaba will embrace the name Isshiki again. If you hear her refer to herself with it, know that she’s taken off the gloves and you’re about to see psientific or computer magic happen.

Verse: The Order’s Frontline Support

Fire Emblem: Heroes Verse for Futaba Sakura

Gist of the Verse

After seeing Hibiki disappear in front of their eyes, Morgana and the Sakuras had a mild freakout. Fortunately for Futaba -and unfortunately for the other two- she finds herself summoned into the same ikesai only seconds later. She arrives in full Oracle getup, and it appears Breidablik has updated her goggles as well as Necronomicon with features and information that’s useful in Zenith rather than in Japan.

While initially freaked out at a new environment with new people, Futaba’s genre savvy-ness, the game-like nature of Askr’s conflict with Embla, and Hibiki’s comforting presence, she quickly finds her place in the Order as a supporter.

Verse-specific

Futaba’s not very different in Askr than she is in Japan. She’s still a supporter, although her main role in battle has been changed to healing because Breidablik considered it the best fit for Necronomicon’s abilities. Full build can be found here. Her goggles are updated with a dynamic, real-time map of the castle, and in Necronomicon she has the same overview of a battle we as players do. In order to make room for those additions, though, certain abilities she had in Japan have had to be removed or blocked off.

Key relationships

Hibiki Fujiwara is the only familiar face in this entire odd land, so Futaba clings to him desperately. She’s also had to make temporary peace with Goro Akechi, seeing as Breidablik and the contract they’re under forbids them from infighting.
