What's Your Opinion On Junko In P4+D2? I Feel Like She's The Hardest To Write Since I Want To Get It

It was like a little bonding moment for Protag!Nagito. The survivors all had a big communal bath, split between boys and girls. And it just felt weirdly nice for him to be hanging out with Kaz and Gundham there, since it made him feel included.

Honestly I imagine lots of moments like that for their AU. Like I've got this one idea where they're actually not immediately saved by the Future Foundation after getting out of the school. And so they go on a little roadtrip with one of Hope's Peak's leftover vans (which they fit as many supplies in as they could). Deciding to stop off at Nagito's house first. Mainly to give him about a week or so to properly heal from the lost arm. But also because it occurs to him that in the post-Apocalypse, money probably isn't as useful for trade as items to barter. And assuming that his house hasn't been ransacked, there's still his dad's old wine cellar that they can use for currency. They think perhaps they might try to find some kind of boat after that, to head to Novoselic in Europe.

It's just like a really quiet "calm before the storm" period. Where they lay him down in his bedroom, while the girls share his parents' old room and the boys share the guestroom. And take turns keeping him company (with Mikan as his main nurse). Just lots of tender FTEs with his classmates, who slowly get a bit more of an idea of what his life was like when they look around his house. Like imagine Mahiru getting a bit of a shock when she sees a photo of a happy kid Nagito, and realizing he didn't always have white hair. He makes a special request that if he doesn't make it, that they please bury him in the spot out back right next to where his dog is buried. They assure him it won't come to that, but promise that they would if it did.

...Also on a less serious, and more morbidly hilarious note, I did have this one funny idea for how Junko potentially died in the AU. Nagito accidentally killed her in a scene reminiscent of Pulp Fiction's bit with Marvin. Carelessly waving around a handgun he believes is empty, with his finger on the trigger while the two get into a big finale debate. Only for the gun to go off and hit her directly in the head, bringing an anticlimactic end to things. Everyone panicking for a moment, Nagito most of all, with him being like "Oh shit, I thought it wasn't loaded!" This whole thing of course being televised.

Hrjsjaiaksnks bonding moment ehehhehehehe, the protage and the bonding<3 AHHH HE FELT INCULDED FOR ONCEE MY BOY!! 💖💖 give him love everyone!!!! Includeee himmmm

AHAHAHAHAH HE WAVED AROUND HIS GUN AND WHISTLED UNTIL HE KILLED A RANDOM TEEN AND WENT :0 PFFT, and y'all panicking understandably, and the audience too lol, but bro saved the universe with that!! He did them more good than bad because it's "The Junko" bro deserves some medals and a crown or something ahahah this is so crazy I love every part of it

This is why you don't share your opinion on Twitter lol

I believe the first fic was one called Paper and Steel. An ongoing FuyuPeko fic that has some neat Fuyuhiko + Nagito quasi-friend interactions. Which is doubly fun for me, as Kuzukoma is actually one of my fondest ships for both characters. He reveals to Fuyuhiko that he actually requested a withdrawal and transfer from Principal Kirigiri so that Natsumi could take his place. There's also one fairly recent Nagito x Natsumi one-shot I came across, where he goes to her funeral with Fuyuhiko.

The other one was an ongoing Persona AU comic on Reddit. I can't remember the exact name. But yeah, it had Nagito and an amnesiac Sato end up in a cult that worships talent. Where they end up developing a kind of sibling bond, with Sato as Nagito's only real friend. A big turning point for both characters is when they finally defy the cult leader and leave together.

Tbh...I actually can't help but fantasize about Komahinatsumi and Komasatozumi AUs as well. Since I'm also a fan of Komahina, Hinatsumi, Komazumi, and Satozumi. Maybe Nagito would be platonic with Natsumi and Sato, or maybe it'd be romantic, who knows lol. Or wait...a Komahinanatsusatozumi verse! In which somehow that cheeky shit becomes the unifying cog-piece in a complex five-way relationship that prevents the Twilight Syndrome incident...And he may also be having some flings with Natsumi's brother on the side. Yasuke can join in too.

Paper and Steel got it!! I definitely have to give that a try soon, AHHHH IT HAS FUYUPEKO MY BABIESSSS ehehehhe that sounds adorable Kuzukoma is cute too!! AWW HE DID THAT'S SO NICE OF HIM FUYUHIKO WE LOVE YOU BOI!! The last one looks angsty!! I live for angst haha

Oh my gawd I love the idea of Nagito and Sato being a found family, defying the cult leader and leaving together?!?! AHHHH THAT'S SOUNDS SO GOOD HOW DO PEOPLE WRITE SO WELL!!

KOMAHINANATSUSATOZUMI SUPREMACY PEOPLE‼️‼️ They should all just poly it out, YEAH yasuke should!! And a Nagito having a few flings with Fuyuhiko hehe poly ships are just so adorable and would you look at that it prevented a murder too!!💞💞

Sorry if this is out of nowhere, but in P4+D2, who are you favorite characters/character dynamics?

Tsumugi and Chiaki have a nice dynamic to me :)) The cosplay kid and the gamer kid would definitely get along so well hehe, Sato and Nagito have to also be one of my favourites, this isn't a relationship but I really like how you wrote Hiyoko, she's still got the sass and I love her for it<33 And I love the whole Hajime getting brainwashed or the NWP or how it adds to the lore!! And I got a lil carried away again, Heyyy don't apologise it's okay to leave an ask hehe, but I really love the whole thing so far!! 🩷🩷

As the world collapses

Yeah, thought it'd be funny if in keeping with the theme of Nagito's fem doppelganger being his opposite in a lot of ways, mentally and physically, she has a bionic right leg instead of his bionic left arm.

Ahahhaah it is!! He lost an arm, she lost a leg, what an amazing friendship PFFT, I really like the three of them and their interactions by the way, this AU is honestly just pure gold!! :)

I'm glad you liked it! Just out of curiosity how far ahead (or how far back) have you read so far?

It's amazing, but to be honest a lil hard to navigate- You see, I started of with the new killing game one where the v3 and v2 cast were combined and I went from there but realised there's alot more so I went a little more back around the Hajime getting kidnapped chapters and was invested but lost track and went to the chapter where they escaped the NWP so then I decided to finally start from the beginning to avoid getting confused hehe and THEN I finished up the chapters where Nagito and Sato get betrayed by Izuru and he works with Junko to the UDG timeline and it all made sense and so I've been slowly working from there, even though it's kind've hard to find in order, I'm still trying my best because it's so interesting and I love everything about this so far and I'm excited to get back to the new killing game chapter because it got me hooked from the second I read it once I'm done with everything else, this comic means alot to me and I love your work!!<33

I just think it'd be weirdly endearing in a hilarious way if one of the people to help Nagito (and his protag self) break out of the "I'm worthless" mindset did so in the most crude and self-absorbed way possible.

Nagiko: "No, you little dumbass! You're not worthless or incompetent. I know that because I am NOT worthless or incompetent. I'm a fucking genius that surpassed a good chunk of those so-called Ultimates in their own field. Kirigiri's daughter? I demanded to her father's face that they replace that stupid luck exam with the detective exam they already had prepared for her third year. And I aced it in my first fucking year! That little shit, Togami? Please, I've seen how incompetently run his division of that Fuckwit Foundation is. And don't get me started on that overrated twerp, Naegi. You're better than the lot of them boy, because you ARE me! A stunted less competent male version of me true, but me nonetheless. And still a genius regardless."

Meanwhile he's covering his ears at this heresy, and shaking his head in denial.

Nagito: "Sis, STAAAHP! Don't compare me to Naegi-kun and Kirigiri-san! I'm nothing compared to them. The whole world knows it."

Nagiko: "Doesn't matter what the rest of the plebs say. They're morons, and they're all wrong. Only my opinion matters in this regard, Nagito. And I say you are better than you think you are. ONLY MY OPINION MATTERS!"

HAHAHAHA THAT'S JUST CONVENIENT- the mean one just helping the out the pushover lol!! She's the coolest out of them , The rest are just pathetic (affectionate), YOOOOOOOO YOU GO GIRL!! SHE'S A LITERAL GENIUS!! SHE EVEN SURPASSED ALOT OTHER ULTIMATES?!?! DETECTIVE EXAM?!?! Okay she low-key slays though !!THE FU- FOUNDATION!! SHE DON'T SPARE NOBODY!! NAHH SHE JUST BRUTAL, TOGAMI NOO LOL, NOT MY LITTLE MAN NAEGG- BWHAHAHA THE INSULTS ARE TOP TIER- i have to take notes from thisss

Less competent 💀💀 the way she roasts everyone while motivating him EXACTLY YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING LOOK AT ALL THE THINGS YOU ACHIEVED!! this is why he's my son, NUUUU HE DON'T BELIEVE IT?!?! BRUH YOU ARE SPECIAL TRUST HER!! (I can imagine him saying that though eheh) AHHHH SHE'S SO NICE (In her own way lol) THE WAY NAGIKO MOTIVATES HIM ASISKSIDMSJ BUT THAT'S SO WHOLESOMEE TELL EM GIRLBOSS 💘💘
