Happy Birthday Ryuji!

This fic is officially a year old now! Yes this was a fic intended to show Ryuji being a capable leader on his birthday. XD essentially BAMF RyuRyu. What better way to celebrate RyuRyu's birthday than to update this fic XD

------------

Saturday came, Ren and Ryuji donned the replica versions of their masks as they went out of the car Sae had drove them in.

Sae herself got out of the car as soon as she parked the car nearby and accompanied the two teenaged boys inside the Kirijo group offices.

“It’s nice to meet you Sakamoto-sama- “Kikuno greeted only Ryuji and prompted the others to introduce themselves.

“I’m Sae Nijima.” Sae introduced herself.

“Joker, just joker.” Ren introduced himself.

“It’s nice to meet you Nijima-sama, Joker-sama.” Kikuno greeted the other two.

“Yeah great to see you Kikuno-san.” Ryuji greeted back, now used to the maid’s way of greeting. “Is Kirijo-san available?” He asked in courtesy.

“Kirijo-sama’s expecting you three.” Kikuno nodded. “Along with the core members and a few their reserved members of the Shadow Operatives.” She added. “Please follow me.” She finished

The three followed the maid from the entrance to the elevator.

------------

As the elevator’s door opened, the four of them were greeted to a sight of a smiling shiba inu waggling his tail at them.

“Have they arrived Koro-chan?” Yukari’s voice asked.

The dog, Koro-chan, simply barked in response.

“Koromaru-san says that they’re at the elevator.” Aigis’s voice translated the dog’s barks.

“For real?!” Ryuji expressed his bewilderment. “One of them can understand the dog.”

“Your group regularly talks to a cat, how is that surprising?” Sae rolled her eyes.

“She’s got you there Skull.” Ren chuckled.

The foursome filed out of the elevator lead by Kikuno, followed by the lawyer and then the boys who were still wearing the masks.

“Lady Mitsuru, your guests have arrived.” Kikuno announced.

“Thank you Kikuno, you may continue to your duties.” Mitsuru dismissed her maid as she approached her guests.

Kikuno bowed then gestured at the vacant couch and left the group to their discussion.

------------

“For real?! A dog’s a Persona –user?!”

Ryuji was taken in with Koromaru’s charm that he gently approached it and began petting the dog. “Who’s a good dog?” He cooed. “Who’s a good Persona-user?” He continued on. “You are, you are.”

Koromaru just wagged his tail and let himself be pet by the new arrivals.

Sae and Ren just looked at each other in amusement.

“Is that really so surprising Skull?” Ren chuckled. “I mean we have a cat as a Persona –user.”

“Well there’s a bear too.” Junpei chimed in.

“For real?!”

“A dog, a bear and now a cat,” Akihiko commented. “Can’t say I’m surprised.”

“To be fair, the bear was a shaped like a mascot rather than an actual bear Akihiko-senpai.” Yukari chimed in.

“I thank you for inviting us to talk regarding this special circumstances Kirijo-sama.” Sae bowed in gratitude, a gesture in which Ryuji and Ren followed as the rest of the Shadow Operatives stopped speaking and turned their attention to their guest.

“And we thank you for coming to shed some light regarding the stealing of hearts.” Mitsuru herself reciprocated the gesture, followed by everyone else.

“In any case.” Mitsuru smiled at her guests. “Please take a seat.” She gestured to the conference table behind her.

------------

“I see.” Mitsuru nodded. “This does line up with the recent findings about cognition by Wakaba Isshiki.” She continued. “She called it Cognitive Psience.”

“You know of Wakaba Isshiki?” Sae questioned.

“Yes.” Mitsuru nodded. “She was one of our best researchers.” She sighed. “We’re still wondering why she committed suicide.”

“Isshiki-san’s death was huge blow to Mitsuru-senpai.” Yukari revealed. “She blames herself for her death, because of the nature of the research.”

Ren and Ryuji looked at each other.

“Shido’s associates has barred the Shadow Operatives or anyone working for the Kirijo group from approaching her daughter.” Akihiko continued the story as he stood behind the Kirijo. “Mitsuru here opted to send compensation for the young girl.” He added.

“A Youji Isshiki was the one who claimed to have adopted her daughter.” Aigis stated.

“The eff!” Ryuji shouted. “Why’d you give that douchebag some money?!”

“Skull calm down.” Ren chastised his masked friend. “We’re here to talk, not to shout.”

“What’s wrong?” Ken questioned.

“Joker, its best that you take this one.” Sae prompted.

“Futaba Isshiki has been passed around by uncaring relatives ever since her mother’s death.” Ren revealed. “Up until Youji Isshiki got his hands on her.” He added.

“That bastard did not give Futaba a bathe or even a bed.” Ryuji growled.

“Afterwards, someone did adopt Futaba, but at a cost.” Ren continued. “Her adoptive father was forced to pay her uncle a part of Futaba’s inheritance.” He finished.

“And how did you know of this?” Yukari questioned with narrowed eyes.

“She wanted us to steal her heart.” Ryuji answered.

“We used our resources to and checked on Isshiki-san’s brother-in-law.” Fuuka piped into the conversation. “His records were clean, so we trusted him and gave him the compensation money.

“In any case, could you give us any information where to send money to?” Mitsuru asked. “I think it’s time that Wakaba Isshiki’s orphaned daughter receive the compensation that was owed to her.”

“She goes by Futaba Sakura now.” Ren informed the group. “Just send it to my probation officer, he was the person who adopted her.”

“I see.” Mitsuru merely nodded.

“Whatever happened to her uncle anyway?” Akihiko questioned. “I’ve been away from Tokyo for some time and I’m largely ignorant to what has happened here while away.” He justified his question.

“He was arrested for embezzlement.” Aigis answered. “He went to the police and asked to be arrested for theft and embezzlement.” She explained the circumstances of the arrest. “I think your group has a hand in his change of heart?” She turned her attention to the male guests.

“Yes.” Ren answered confidently.

“Is it safe to assume that Futaba Sakura is also a Phantom Thief herself?” Mitsuru asked another question.

“We’re not going to confirm or deny that assumption Kirijo-san.” Ren immediately answered.

“I hope you understand their wariness from divulging information Kirijo-sama.” Sae apologized. “A lot of Shido’s associates are still at large and we would like not to repeat the circumstances of Joker’s arrest last November.” She finished.

“Of course.” Mitsuru nodded.

“You know Mitsuru-senpai.” Ken began.” You could’ve sent me to Tokyo when this was happening.” Ken voiced out. “I’m only a year older than Sakamoto-kun and I could’ve approached Isshiki-san’s daughter with Shido none the wiser.”

“And throw you into the lion’s den?” Akihiko asked rhetorically. “Fat chance!” He declared. “I’m not about to do that and break my promise.” He continued. “Or anyone else for that matter.”

“Akihiko senpai is right kid.” Junpei chimed in. “Mitsuru-senpai can’t send you on missions like that kid.” He added. “And if she did, Yuka-tan and I’ll object once we find out about that.” He finished.

“Don’t get us wrong Ken-kun.” Yukari immediately added herself to the conversation. “This goes beyond your age.” She continued as she knelt beside him. “We know you can handle yourself, we knew that since you were ten.” She added. “But, we can’t, in good conscience, do that to you.” She sighs. “You almost lost your childhood because of our journey years ago, and that’s something we want you to enjoy.” She finished.

“Yukari is right Amada.” Mitsuru stood up and approached her youngest member. “Sending you on a mission is something we’ve ensured as a last resort.” She continued. “Besides the fact that we can’t send you on missions as you weren’t a member of the team.” She smiled.

Mitsuru then retrieved a small pin from one of her pockets and showed it to Amada.

“Welcome back to the team Ken Amada.”

“Wait, if you weren’t going to send him on missions.” Ryuji voiced out. “Why’d you send him when shadows roamed our school?”

“And moment ruined.” Ren chuckled.

“It pains me to admit.” Mitsuru sighed. “All of us were indisposed when the event took place.” She confessed.

“I was out of town for one of my team’s games.” Junpei chimed in.

“I was in the middle of a shoot.” Yukari explained.

“Fuuka-san and I were busy with repairs and updates for my body and my sister’s.” Aigis explained. “Although Mitsuru-san and Fuuka-san were able to provide navigational support from where we are.” She added.

“Sister?!” Ryuji questioned. “For real?!”

“I was busy with a case.” Akihiko stated his reason as everyone else ignored Ryuji’s outburst.

“And I was swamped with paper works and potential work around with Shido’s incarceration.” Mitsuru stated. “Then our efforts were focused on finding the place where the phenomenon originated.” She added. “I had Yamagishi and Aigis help me with the finding the aptly-named Dark Box, and close it.” She explained. “As you were attacked by shadows that went berserk.”

“The timing was impeccable honestly.” Ken voiced out. “As it stood, I was not only near the place, but I was in Tokyo for the time being.” He added.

“We were forced to send Ken-san and aid you in battle.”

“And we can’t thank you enough for saving my team’s life.” Ren bowed in gratitude.

“I have one more question.” Yukari voiced out.” Why’d you decide to conceal your identity Amamiya-kun?” She asked. “We already know you were the leader of the Phantom Thieves due to your arrest late last year.”

“Who’s Amamiya?” Ren inquired

“Go ahead Yamagishi, show them.” Mitsuru sighed.

Fuuka merely nodded and pressed a button and showed the screen showed two images. One of Ren Amamiya and the other was of Joker taken from the broadcast of Shido’s calling card.

“While the mask obscures the full view of your face, it is undeniable that your hairstyle, hair color and even the bottom part of your face matches that with that of Ren Amamiya’s.” Aigis narrated. “It is safe to assume that Joker and Ren Amamiya-san are one and the same.”

“Besides.” Mitsuru started as she walked behind Aigis. “You were already labeled as Joker during your arrest late last year.” She finished.

“Great deduction.” Ren chuckled as he removed his mask let it sit on top of his head

“Thank you.” Mitsuru voiced her gratitude. “We wouldn’t have been able to without the help of the first detective prince and Aigis here.”

“You’re welcome, Mitsuru-san.”

“Joker?” Ryuji questioned. “Are you sure?”

“What’s the harm?” Ren shrugged. “My identity was already compromised last year.” He smiled.

Ryuji nodded as he too removed his mask and sit it on top of his yellow locks.

“Is it safe to assume that everyone in this photograph are members of your little group?” Akihiko handed Sae a photograph.

The photograph in question showed seven teenaged people with five of them in two different school uniforms and the other two civilian clothes. The teens were in front of Japan’s Diet Building looking very distinct despite the number of people in the background.

“What about this one.” Akihiko handed Sae another photo.

The second photo had the same group of teens in the first image but this time they were by a van and were wearing their casual attire.

“I’m going to repeat my answer earlier.” Ren started his reply. “I am not going to confirm or deny those assumption.” He finished.

“Why the secrecy kid?” Junpei voiced his question. “Won’t it be easier if you confided your status as Persona-users to us, the Shadow Operatives?”

“Would you be able to guarantee their safety from Shido’s associates that remain at large as we converse?” Sae questioned. “Would you be able to protect these children the danger and risks with having their identities divulged?”

“Your younger sister was attending Shujin when the Phantom Thieves operated. Wasn’t she Nijima-san?” Akihiko voiced out.

“Yes.” Sae answered immediately. “I’m confused as to how that relates to my earlier question.” She admitted.

“I just find it suspicious that you’re incredibly defensive towards the Phantom Thieves’ identities.” Akihiko voiced out as he crossed his arms. “Especially considering that she’s also in those photographs I presented.”

“They are my clients.” Sae replied dryly. “It is in my best interests to have their safety in mind.” She continued. “Especially considering that Shido and his associates would literally kill children to further their ends.” She finished.

“Be that as it may.” Akihiko resumed. “If your younger sibling is indeed part of the group.” He continued. “You yourself have a personal stake if her identity is revealed.”

“Officer Sanada, I ask that you be careful with your next words.” Sae threatened. “I could have you charged with slander.”

“Akihiko, enough!” Mitsuru barked. “We can’t have you jailed for voicing out evidence-less accusations.” She chided her employee. “To answer Nijima-san’s question.” She turned her attention to the still-calm lawyer. “Yes, I can guarantee their protection.” She declared. “The Kirijo group can.” She finished.

“Big words considering Shido had your hands tied when the time Phantom Thieves operated.” Sae fired. “Not to mention how you took the back seat when Wakaba Isshiki’s daughter was orphaned and passed around and abused by her uncaring and greedy relatives.”

“You misunderstand Nijima-san.” Mitsuru stated. “I said that the Kirijo group can guarantee their safety and not the Shadow Operatives.”

“What’s the difference?” Ryuji voiced out.

“As I understand, the Shadow Operatives is a subset of the Kirijo-group of companies considering you’re the one leading it.” Ren continued.

“While that is true.” Mitsuru nodded. “The Kirijo group is not affiliated with government in the same way the Shadow Operatives are.”

“You just said that the Kirijo group is prohibited from interacting with Wakaba Isshiki-san’s daughter.” Ren pointed out.

“That was different matter Amamiya.” Mitsuru informed. “Wakaba Isshiki’s circumstances do not relate to the work we do here in the Shadow Operatives.” She finished.

“Regardless, our stance still won’t change on the matter.” Sae stated with finality.

“Mitsuru-senpai, Akihiko-senpai, I suggest we let this go.” Yukari voiced out. “I can understand why they are apprehensive with such an offer.” She added.

“These kids were exploited and abused by adults.” Ken inserted himself into the conversation. “Adults in power mind you.” He emphasized. “They still need more proof in order for them to trust us.” He continued.

“And saving them from shadows wasn’t enough?” Junpei exclaimed. “We’re trying to make sure that they won’t lose someone from their group like we did!”

“Junpei!” Yukari shouted. “Not the time!”

“I’ll escort them downstairs.” Ken volunteered.

“You go do that Ken.” Akihiko nodded.

“One last question.” Mitsuru declared. “Do you wield multiple Personas Amamiya?”

“No.” Came Ren’s immediate answer.

“Yamagishi.”

Fuuka nodded as she pointed her evoker on her head.

“What are yo-!“ Came Sae’s immediate reaction.

“They’re not in danger Nijima-san.” Ryuji cut off the lawyer’s immediate reaction. “I’ve witnessed this beforehand.” He explained calmly.

“Is this how they summon their Personas Ryuji?” Ren asked as he looked at Fuuka with worry and amazement.

“Yeah, it’s kinda edgy.” Ryuji shrugged. “And kinda dark too.”

“Juno!” Fuuka called out.

A humanoid figure with a dome-like skirt appeared with Fuuka inside said dome. The figure in question was covered in red cloth all around with a pair of wings.

“Amamiya-san has Personas from twelve different arcana two of them are from the Fool and Justice Arcana.” Fuuka relayed the information she got. “The Fool Persona is the same Persona seen above Shinjuku on the 24th of December last year.” She finished.

The three guests looked at each other in bewilderment and fear.

“So they could really use their Personas in the real world.” Ren commented. “That’s rather frightening.”

“So that’s a Persona?” Sae asked her companions. “That’s a frightening ability.” She concluded. “And you say you can harness elemental attacks when you summon them?”

“I’ll explain in the car.” Ren replied then turned his attention to the Shadow Operatives. “Yes I can wield multiple Personas.”

“I see.” Mitsuru sighed. “Amada, please escort them to their vehicle.” She ordered.

Ren, Ryuji and Sae looked at each other and followed Ken towards the elevator.

As soon as Ken and the guests were on the elevator, Yukari glared at the Iori. “You were out of line Junpei!” She chided. “Could you stop being a man baby for once and think of others than yourself?!”

“So you’re saying I’m being a baby?” Junpei fired back. “I’m a baby for suggesting that they confide with us and make their lives a bit easier.” He rolled his eyes. “Sure I’m being a baby.”

“Yukari! Iori! Enough!” Mitsuru yelled.

This promptly stopped the two from arguing any further.

“Iori, I understand where you come from.” Mitsuru stated somberly. “We sacrificed a lot during our journey.” She added. “But we must also put ourselves in their shoes.” She sighed. “They’d be uneasy if they did reveal their identities to us.”

“How come?” Fuuka asked.

“Remember how they regarded Akechi, someone who has been on their team for a short while, with spite?” Akihiko answered. “He was their Ikutsuki, so to speak.” He explained.

“I don’t follow.” Junpei’s eyes narrowed.

“Akechi-san has betrayed Amamiya-san and Sakamoto-san and every one of the Phantom Thieves of Hearts during their time together.” Aigis helpfully supplied.

“Akechi was employed by Shido during his time in the Phantom Thieves.” Mitsuru continued.

“Shido-san is the big shot politician and a representative in the National Diet of Japan.” Akihiko added.

“I see.” Yukari’s eyes narrowed in realization. “Considering our affiliation with the government, they think the possibility of getting betrayed is high.”

“Perhaps Labrys could convince them.” Fuuka pondered.

“One question.” Aigis spoke up. “What did you hope to accomplish when you asked if Amamiya-san was a wild card Mitsuru-san?” She asked.

“Nothing Aigis.” Mitsuru answered as she sat back on her chair. “Something I just wanted to confirm.” She continued. “And who to look for when things would go dire if you and Narukami would be indisposed.”

Happy Birthday, Kise! (And belated Happy Father’s Day)

"Dad," Kasamatsu starts, and he's trying very hard not to blush, because this is not the sort of thing he's ever had to talk to about with his father before, and he can't help but feel a little embarrassed (and awkward) by this whole situation. "So. Kise's birthday is coming up."

"Yes, that's right," Youji says, not really looking up from his video game. "We're probably going to do our usual family dinner in the evening time, but if you kids have a date planned for earlier, that's cool. I can lend you some money."

"Thanks," Kasamatsu says, ignoring the general weirdness of the situation that he's dating someone who his father also views as a son, "I'm good, though, I've been saving money. And yeah, we're probably going to do our own thing in the day, it's just..." It should not be this difficult to ask his dad a dating question. It really shouldn't be. "This is his first birthday we're celebrating now that we're dating, so I kinda want to get him something nice, but," and now he starts to mumble and speak really fast, "I don't know what to get him so doyouhaveanyideas?"

Before, Kasamatsu would buy Kise basketball stuff—wrist bands, water bottles, that sort of thing. He feels like that's not what boyfriends get each other, so he really does want to get Kise something nice, but he has no idea what that would be.

Youji pauses his game. "Do you want my honest answer?"

"Well, yeah? That's why I'm asking?" Kasamatsu says, figuring that if anyone knows Kise better than he does, it's Youji.

"Get him anything that involves you being naked, and he'd probably be—ack, you chose honesty! I gave you that option!! Stop hitting me!!"

Because Kasamatsu is thoroughly beating his father with a couch pillow now, "You stupid father, oh my god, you are the WORST FATHER EVER."

"Excuse you, I am an awesome father, I'm giving you advice that’s 100% guaranteed to make Ryouta happy here—"

Kasamatsu flings one last pillow at his father's head. "I don't know why I asked you!"

"Hey, I am giving you advice both as a father and as a man! Naked birthdays are always a win!"

"ARGH STOP TALKING!" Kasamatsu storms away, completely red, and decides to buy Kise a pair of shoes.

"Oh man, Ryouta, you got the good stuff, I'm impressed," Youji says, after unwrapping Kise's offered bottle of scotch.

"How'd you even get that?" Kasamatsu asks suspiciously.

"Shapeshifter," Kise says, pointing to himself.

"I was mostly wondering how you could afford it," Kasamatsu says.

"Shapeshifter and model," Kise says cheerfully. "Happy Father's Day, Youji-san."

"Can I have some?" Mizuki asks.

"Sure," Youji says.

"Absolutely not," Kasamatsu hisses. Mizuki looks disappointed, because he knows who actually has the authority in this family.

"Yukio," Youji chides.

"Yeah, harsh, Senpai," Kise says.

Kasamatsu stares at them both, horror creeping in. "Oh my god, you two are the same. Ugh. This has really disturbing implications about my psyche."

"I'm way prettier," Kise pouts.

"True," Youji says cheerfully. "Don't read too much into it, Yukio, you just have your mother's taste in men!"

"Oh my god, just murder me now," Kasamatsu says, burying his face in his hands. Ren pats him on the head sympathetically.

"What'd he end up giving you for your birthday, anyway?" Youji asks.

"A very nice pair of Nikes, see?" Kise says, showing off his new shoes.

"Oh. That's nice. I recommended being naked."

"You are the best father ever," Kise breathes.

"I hate you both. Die. I'm seceding from the family," Kasamatsu says.

"If you leave does that mean I can drink the scotch?" Mizuki asks.

"Still no."

A/N: hahaha, yesterday I was thinking, "I should write Designation: Miracle Father's Day stuff, since it is Father's day!!" and then I was thinking "no wait, I should write birthday fic for Kise, since it will be Kise's birthday!!" And then I decided, "Oh hey, I can do BOTH those things at the same time!!" =D =D

(questions taken from this questionnaire)

so, You Want To Know About Youji Fen. well.

{cw: uh... family drama, a lot of family talk, ableism}

1. She does not have any siblings as her father left her mother after having her, and the two met pretty shortly before then. However, who she does have is her maternal cousin, Yang Yunxu - her mother went to live with her sister and her spouse to avoid living in more poverty, and they had one kid. A bundle of energy and naiivite, he and Ailani unfortunately lost contact after she moved to Japan.

2. Poor Chou. Hailing from a poor background, she was an itinerant all her life and eventually underwent the difficult process to move from mainland China to Hong Kong, hoping three degrees of separation would give her a chance at a new life. She brought along remnants of her past life - this is why Youji Fen is properly written with pinyin, though Ailani grew up remembering only Cantonese. Chou didn't find her life there easier, and was frequently out of the house trying to gain employment. Ailani herself has a very distanced view of her mother, but also one that is dependent. The daughter, seen as a way to make the mother proud and give her a motivation to keep on going, but on the flip side Ailani relies on her mother to give her necessities and admired her for her dedication and hard work. This was one of the things that motivated her to write, as she wanted to make enough money to support the both of them. So while Ailani admires her mother, she did everything in her power to avoid ending up like her.

3. Oh boy. Chu is actually the son of a first generation immigrant from Vietnam who also found himself in Hong Kong for similar reasons to Chou. Also from a poor background, though not to the degree of his ex-wife, the two bonded over this and married fairly hastily. He was always a coward and left when Ailani was young, seeing her appearance as an omen of sorts. As she grew up she realized there was something different about her family arrangement, especially as she entered school and was exposed to others. After the events that led her family to move, she became acutely aware of his absence and began blaming him for leaving the family. This has continued until the present day, and there probably isn't a single person she loathes more than her father.

4. Oh yes, absolutely. There were three of these events, two of them are sort of stuff that hasn't come out yet, but in vague terms they are 1. the event that she witnessed that directly caused her to move 2. the time she lost a friend of hers and 3. what I'll be talking about now, which basically solidified her choice of career. Ailani, for her thirteenth birthday, was taken to a movie theatre to watch a film. On her way back from concessions, she accidentally walked inside the wrong theatre, and witnessed a horror movie. She only caught bits of what was going on, but the gory scene she beheld implanted itself in her mind, and as she grew older and was an edgy teen who liked to rebel, it made an impact on her and was essentially the day she knew what she wanted to do.

5. She likes to keep her pockets clean, typically one'd only find a pen, her keys/keycard, a miniature notepad, and a tissue. Anything else is only transitive.

6. ; )

Okay, but she does have many dreams about flying. One of her secret desires has always been the ability of levitation, and this has transferred over to her subconscious. Incidentally, another desire of hers has always been to become a robot, which she has dreamed about before.

7. She does, indeed have reoccurring nightmares, mostly about stuff she's seen in her life. However, a common theme with them is abandonment.

8. Nope. She has never, in her life, fired a gun.

9. Yup! Back in the dawning years of her life, she was very poor. Ailani's still poor but less so because she's actually making money from her books, but not enough to drag herself and her mother out from being lower-class. However, her life's doing substantially better since she's actually living with her mum in their own apartment instead of sharing with others.

10. Takes a long, hard look at Ailani and her jorts. Well, it's dependent on the weather but she gets cold very easily so she prefers more clothes, but usually as a safeguard rather than because of actual comfort.

11. Several, again. The first was the threat of being homeless following the incident that made her have to move, but she was still a child during that and didn't fully understand what went on. The second was the immediate period of time following the incident in which she lost her friend.

12. For the year she was preparing to write her third book, she would go to a temple and pray. That assisted greatly in instilling a sense of calm in her, and she looks back upon the last stretch of that time fondly.

13. Yes, she's disconcerted by it. As much as she works with blood and guts in her writing, there's no substitute for the real thing even if it helped desensitize her slightly.

14. Names. She's a very word-oriented person though she has a great talent for visualization, but the way Ailani's mind works it's simply easier for her to recall a string of letters.

15. Ohhh boy. Yes, absolutely. Being in poverty for much of her life has left her with a hunger for wealth and as a result she tends to hoard money and physical comforts (i.e. she still has a collection of hotel soap from when they were moving into their apartment even if they were in a better spot). It's very hard to get her to spend on material comforts, even if it won't affect her financially, and she treasures anything she's given.

16. Success, full-stop. She'd rather be famous and known rather than happy, which has been her mentality her entire life because she's desperate to become known and not stuck in the lot life dealt her.

17. Does a book count? She had a pop-up book of various animals that she found utterly fascinating, and would read over and over. It was actually what helped her learn to start reading and imprinted a love of the craft in her.

18. Both. She's harsh towards perceived negative traits in others, and while she doesn't believe ambition is inherently evil (look at her!), she feels those seized by it can easily become soured. Wisdom is also important in her mind, as one must know how to approach the world and not keep themselves closed off. She feels sympathy might be reached if people simply considered the circumstances of others.

19. -laughtrack- Well, uh. Ailani is ambitious to the point of ruthlessness herself, as in she will make herself successful and prioritize that above the happiness and safety of others. I'm not going to elaborate on her relationships rn but let me just say that this has caused big, big issues for her in the past.

20. Welcome to petty mcgee. Ailani feels she needs to be the best, and consequently can't help but compare herself to others. She doesn't mind criticism at all, but at the same time she's fully willing to rip elements of other people and learn from their failings in order to better herself. So for the most part she does this for self-criticism, but she's the nasty kind of person who looks at critics ripping apart others works in order to self-validate.

21. -laughtrack part two- Well, without getting too deep into it, Ailani blames others for anything negative that's ever happened in her life. She has a pretty good self-image but at the same time it's fragile and she doesn't like it being challenged, which causes her to blame others in like 90% of the cases. She really, really doesn't like being in the wrong.

22. Ailani's a person who's willing to genuinely like others, but keep them as arm's length. However, she prefers people who are honest and consistent, where she can better predict their reactions. The other kind of person she likes are those who are similar to her, who she can't help but relate to and feel a connection with. See the people she likes most: Yuka, Holly, Ayato, Piney, Sarara.

23. An entire laundry list of things. She hates hypocrisy above all else though, which, in itself, is hypocritical. Another trait she loathes is when people are unpredictable, as she prefers consistency. She also dislikes incompetence.

24. As can be displayed by her behavior in trials, pretty quickly. Ailani actually suspected Kanon after Haruna was defensive of her during investigation, and this carried with her all throughout the trial just for example.

25. Not quick at all, enough said. Unless your name starts with "Y" and ends with "uka Kagome". Really, Ailani only deeply trusts like five people in her entire life, both inside the simulation and out.

26. Ailani finds children kind of annoying and has no interest in having any, so she isn't very good around them nor should be trusted to look after them - she'd probably just leave them be and begin reading a book instead. Fictional preteens are enough, thank you very much.

27. Avoid! Avoid! Avoid!

28. Usually she only resorts to violence if pushed to her max, i.e. trial 6 with the knives and stuff in her backstory.

29. Believe it or not, she wanted to be an auto racer as a child after reading a book on it. Author was her second choice which took over her life, and she eventually did.... kinda fulfill that dream.

30. In terms of symbolic stuff? Hypocrisy and injustice. In terms of physical stuff? She really hates heavy food, especially cheese - and not just because she's lactose intolerant.

31. Relaxing in a quiet spot inside her house, book in hand and cup of tea to her side. Ailani's alone and can read at her leisure.

33. Always willing to improve if it comes to her works. She doesn't mind if what she creates is criticized, moreso if she herself is criticized. Should someone suggest ways for her to improve as a person, she's likely to pull a knife on them.

34. Move on to a different method/solution. Ailani tends to search for creative ways to deal with a problem, and because of that will keep on trying different tactics until she find one that works. This isn't always good, as she might disregard a method if it didn't work once - even if it was her own fault it tanked.

35. Nice. No, really.

36. Nice, but in a super passive-aggressive way. She tends to regard them with disgust, and insult them covertly at every chance she gets.

37. Status. For Ailani, the concept of keeping honour is a thing she's never given much consideration to especially because of her family situation where keeping mum about not having a father was necessary, which caused her to resent the concept of "honour". As for her status, one needn't look further than trial seven.

38. It depends on the severity of the problem/threat and if it affects her directly. If it doesn't and it's relatively harmless, then she tends to take a hands-off stance, but if it does Ailani deals with it at earliest possible time, always.

39. Nah, she's never been bitten by an animal.

40. Considerately. She's very much one to root for the small person, and is a big fan of underdog stories. She knows they're just trying to live and make minimum wage, and she tends to try to be as polite as possible to people in general even if she resents them.

41. Oh boy, here's Ms. Entitled. She feels that, because of her lot in life she deserves to have good things happen to her eventually, but she also thinks she must work for them even if she deserves to have what she wants. In general, she believes it to be pretty dang unfair that she has to work, but she goes hard at her desires.

42. Yup, a librarian at the library she frequented. Because the librarian knew JSL and MCJ, she spoke frequently with them, and they grew fond of her. The librarian saw her grow up too, and as a result their relationship was rather parental, especially since they fretted over her and wanted to see her succeed.

43. Again, yes, a certain person in her backstory. They were her first crush, but they regarded her more as a sibling and friend. Still, the relationship eventually crumbled anyways.

44. It's very easy for her to say ilu, both with and without meaning. Ailani's willing to do a lot to ensure her success, and pretending she actually likes people is on that list. However, she also says ilu easily when she genuinely likes people - it's just a feeling, why shouldn't she be honest?

45. Ailani was raised Buddhist, and believes in rebirth. She's always been pretty religious, and this only intensified recently in her life. While she gives consideration to the idea of an afterlife, which she's afraid of the possibility of, she holds firm to her belief in reincarnation though.
