Ok, not a question and more of an observation. But while translating P3 Owari no kakera (the Akihiko spin off novel), I noticed the way Shinjiro was being described, and even his demeanor, are similar to how you write him. Have you perhaps read the novel previously and took inspiration or is it just coincidence? Either way, I find this pretty cool
oh my god???? do you have ANY idea what high praise that is??? i haven't read owari no kakera (but i do own it) and knowing that i wrote shinjiro similarly to how he's written in a CANON BOOK??? wow... i mean i work really hard to keep him in character but sometimes it's hard to tell if i'm writing him accurately or writing him how i want him to be.
anyway, thank you for sharing that with me. this is a huge confidence boost. i'm very happy to know that i have his demeanor/descriptions down. and i love you. now if anyone else who has read the book would like to see for yourself if/how my portrayal of shinjiro matches up, here's my ao3:

thank u for the self-promotion opportunity as well, i hope people know i'm not just performatively horny for shinjiro i write that freak shit in DETAIL in my ao3
