Ahem
WHERE ARE MY SPACE AUS IN THIS FANDOM???
extra au stuff below the cut :D
after doodling Akechi in his space outfit for this au far too many times to be healthy I said screw it, the world needs to know
SO! essentially, Shido is capitalist scum. If you thought he was bad in cannon, he’s even worse here. He’s screwed over each and every one of the thieves lives and many more. If you’ve ever head the song “The Fine Print”, that’s the au in a nutshell.
Shido and his associates, like Okumura (sorry Haru :( ), exploit the hell out of the working class. And where does this happen? The Dyson Sphere. I’ll spare you the nerdy details, but to put it simply, its a grid around the sun thats basically harvesting its power. (If you’re also a nerd yes, I’m aware it should be a dyson swarm but this is for the sake of the au >:( ). Why is this relevant? Because it’s what brings the thieves together! :)
Ryuji’s mom, Akechi’s mom, and Ann’s parents all work(ed) there. The conditions sucked, and the poor employees were almost worked to death (in the case of Akechi’s mom, not almost :( ). Meanwhile, researchers like Wakaba and Maruki are sold off to the government for illegal experiments. In this case: cloning. Wakaba is killed before Maruki officially completes the research. But! Before she dies, she gives her daughter a lesson or two (or twenty) about making AI. Thus personas are born! Once all of the thieves (sans Akechi, who was given his after befriending Wakaba) meet Futaba, its game over for the government.
This is getting too long to explain the little rest so uh. TL;DR: Shido sucks, workers exploited, thieves take down capitalist scum.
