As long as Goro was still around, the Thieves would be in danger - if not from him, then from Shido - and that was something he could no longer bear.

Sometimes the bravest thing you can do is run away.

ShuAke Confidant Week Day 8: Possibility | Acceptance | Sacrifice

It wasn’t supposed to happen this way. It never was - but Akira could deal with the snag in their plan to expose Kamoshida. What he couldn’t fathom, on the other hand, was why Akechi was acting so suddenly cold, and why it bothered him so terribly much.

hi work killed me today so I’m terribly late, but hey it’s still day 6 where I live. :P

also today is maybe… a little bit of a stretch w.r.t. the theme. forgive me?

His inaugural trip to the Metaverse as one of the Phantom Thieves, and of course Goro had to run into an enemy he’d never seen before - something that caught him completely by surprise. At least he’d seem less threatening to the Thieves now…

But even after he left the Metaverse, it felt as thought something was off… he was starting to feel woozy, and his body was getting hot… and why did Akira look so nice all of a sudden…?

Goro was far too old to be playing house with anyone, let alone Akira. Still, when he was at Leblanc, it was… easy… to pretend.

Akira was supposed to be keeping his nose down during his probation at Shujin, but sometimes things don’t work out the way you expect. Sometimes you befriend the other misfits in school and start working to expose an abusive teacher for the scum that he is. Hey, it couldn’t be helped - these things happen.

Sometimes you have to distract the student council vice president by making out with him. These things happen.
