So I was thinking about all the things I'm exited for the future of this fic (beside all of it lol) and I have to say I'm exited to see lavenza interact with her tricksters
Thank you for writing and sharing!

You mentioned a sad bad ending plot on your Tumblr... could you elaborate? It sounds interesting...
There was a bad ending plot where during the whole 'Ren gets into Shido's palace and tries to help Akechi thing goes south. Instead of having his interview later in the day, he had it earlier, and noticed Akechi heading to the diet much earlier (before he found out about his plan being useless) and Akechi ends up killing him when Ren puts two and two together after Goro saves him from a shadow.
Goro then leaves Ren's body on Shido's ship and is just...fucked up by the whole thing, doesn't find out his plan with Shido is useless but suddenly he has no one to text that night for a fun debate. All his plans with Ren later that week are practically cancelled, has a bit of a meltdown about it but tries to justify it to himself about how he's come too far to go back now. He comes up with a whole plan about how he'll feign ignorance when Ren is declared missing, being the first person to bring up the whole thing with Sojiro and plans next morning to go to Leblanc so that he's not suspicious....
Except when he goes....Ren is there...making coffee.
Goro would freeze of course when they make eye contact and Ren just smiles. Ren just asks him if he wants his usual and Sojiro notices Goro is acting weird but Goro just says its stress. Goro of course is freaking out on the inside, the thing in front of him talks like Ren, sounds like Ren, has all of his mannerisms but it can't possibly be Ren because Ren is dead because he killed him.
But this 'Ren' doesn't act suspicious beyond occasionally smiling at Goro, which no one else finds suspicious. Goro immediately checks for Ren's body in Shido's ship and when he gets there there's nothing. He starts to question his own sanity, wondering if he killed a cognition, but then why would Shido have a cognition of Ren on his ship? It's maddening especially since he can tell that Ren is toying with him, that smile that he knows more than he says but plays it off when asked, and manages to put on the most convincing acting performance of life and Goro feels even more gaslit. He doesn't know what to think anymore.
He tries asking his online friends if anything has been weird with NotRed, they don't notice anything suspicious. It's just him and that damn smile.
That's when Goro plots to kill him again in the real world this time where they would have no choice but to be a body. Is the one who brings forth his name to Shido as the leader of the Phantom Thieves just to have the excuse because having to pretend nothing is wrong is driving him mad. Because if Ren knows all of his secrets, if Ren is pretending, if Ren is NOT Ren, then that thing could undo everything he's worked for and is blaspheming his friend's memory to do it.
Not that Goro thinks he deserves to consider himself Rens friend anymore.
Anyways it was supposed to be another one of the ATOTT Yaldaboth bad endings I had in mind. But I couldn't decide on an ending and it was frankly too depressing to me but if you're wondering if it's supposed to be Ren, then yes it was, and he definitely wants payback and not just from Goro.

ATOTT is genuinely one of the best fics ive ever read holy shit i have ignored all of my responsibilities because i got so hyperfocused on it for the past few weeks (part of me likes it more than canon 😭 i rlly love how the pt are still together and friends even without joker, since canon portrays joker as like the glue holding them together which isnt bad per say but it makes the pt not feel like their own people outside of joker) but also ren and akechi's dynamic is so beautiful agh -char. limit :(

Reading the Shido fight again, because why not, and now I'm delighted by the horror of thinking about Shido holding Baby Taba like a proud dad. Cuz like, what part of Wakaba's pregnancy did he show his true colours? Before his daughter was born? Or was there a brief blip where he acted as a dad should, to further seal Wakaba's love for her daughter, only to use that threat?
Does the same apply to Goro? Did he ever once in his life have his fathers "love"~?
Ren says who the fuck cares and hugs them both.

I do have to make a confession, the way I discovered your fic was because of the turtle plush fanart, but, for longer then I care to admit, I thought that it was fanart of Ren holding ninja turtle merch... Please don't kill me I'm just stupid...

Crack idea but, joker hit by an status alignment that turn him into a cat, Akechi had to take care of him and call sojiro to tell him Ren is gonna spend some days with him
Sojiro, still thinking they are dating, told him to be safe for Akechi and Ren kitty confussion

Here am I, in full ass Goro Akechi Prince Crow Outfit Cosplay rn and my first thought is:
… lemme find scenes from ATTOT, play stereotypical “edgy” songs, and pretend I’m acting it out in an edit

After a reread I came into the conclusion
Instead of Pancakegate we have Turtlegate

So obviously the Murder Boys have their own codes for things, which has come up a few times.
But how did they make up that code? Because I just know in my heart of hearts Ren was only semi-helpful and offered the most buckwild suggestions. Goro loves him very much, but one of these days he's going to delight in shooting his boyfriend.
"Why don't we say you were trying to cook up a nice romantic meal and burned everything? That can be code for 'plz my darling come quick and feed me~' "

Im doing (another, hehe) reread, and absolutely eating up all the breadcrumbs youre leaving for 3rdSem/Strikers :)
Also when I first read the fic, I wasnt too familiar with 3&4, but now watching those games, a lot of other background things make a lot more sense. Maybe one day we can have 1&2 remade and playable, sob.

SPEAKING ON THE LOVE A WORM THING~
It was that fanart of Goro looking at his texts and accepting his curse of romantic partner that gor me into reading this monster of a fic in the first place. Muwah, shout out to fan artists~
