Hi! I really love your akechi palace au, all the world building and game mechanics are fascinating to me!! I was wondering, what do you think Akira's palace would be like?
I've actually chatted about this concept in discord pm's a little bit!
Anyways, if I were to put Akira in a swap au situation (because honestly he was already a few months away from forming one in that initial SIDE: JOKER part I posted) I'd probably base it around the Paris catacombs and Dante's Inferno, "stagnation" to the extreme! Nothing's more still than a grave, after all--plenty of "rooms" for the people he feels he needs to protect/memories he wants to preserve ect.
His keywords would likely be: KURUSU AKIRA. CATACOMBS. ALL OF TOKYO.
(Lavenza is so lucky shuake didn't just miss each other, two wild card palaces at once would be a mess.)
To Akira, standing still while the world moves on without him is his worst possible scenario! If Akechi's "end of the world" is an utter loss of control, Akira's is 'regression' I'd think. Smothering his own flames is the height of betrayal to both his inner self and his justice! His persona's would be furious with him lol This would be a very vindictive palace--straight up dungeon crawler style, full of booby traps that send you all the way back to the start with shadows that only tell you lies.
They'd probably make it a trial, honestly! Luckily we're in the Akechi Palace timeline <3
Buuut since this is a fun sandbox, here's some quick Kiradow doodles!
