❤ voice test post

[heartcontrol]

hey guys it's ya girl len here with a open voice-testing post (please save me) for akira kurusu / ren amamiya (shrugs at protag names) from persona 5. . . except that he's from the "good" ending where he sells his soul (okay not Literally Sell His Soul, but close enough) to the god of control, yaldabaoth so that he can save the world from ruin and make the phantom thieves great again aka selfish justice and desires. yeah, that's a thing.

anyway, a few things to note about this iteration:

• he's very much the same guy in some ways. he plays up the quiet an unassuming act, but will act cocky and confident as Joker
  
• but the changes are pretty drastic. he's a lot more self-centered about his goals and cares more about personal justice > what's Actually Right
  
• he also doesn't really give a flying shit about other people, but he'll pretend he does
  
• while he doesn't murder people because Phantom Thief Creed, he absolutely would murder a guy if he was given the option to because nobody would give a shit?? he's in control now
  
• HAREM ROUTE because he's that kind of asshole
  
• all of his personas are Broken and OP as hell because again That Kind of Asshole, but he does not have his endgame persona, satanael
  
• literally fused away arsene the first chance he got, sorry buddy
  
• he actually fought both sae and akechi solo.
  
• he maxed out everyone's confidants. he also has max stats, including kindness?? even though his real personality is that he's a dick?
  
• only half cared that akechi died. he's just Disappointed that he doesn't have a ~rival~ anymore. phantom thieves need rivals, damn it
  
• will make a Deal with practically anyone if it means that he benefits off of it.
  
• gets Bored real fucking easily now. he'll still shitpost and stuff but it's not as fun anymore???


and that's basically it. i'm willing to play this version against other Akira/Rens (honestly, give me doubles, I LOVE THAT SHIT) and various other Persona users, whether they're from different games or different timelines of P5 (look, seriously, give me True Ending P5 members) too or AUs? come at me, i'm ripped.

as for scenarios, i'm willing to do stuff with mementos or having him go into palaces although honestly i can work with people making an Attempt to go into ren's palace too since he'd probably have one now, although it's definitely not gonna be Easy. and i can go w/ text posts (i.e. tfln or whatever) but if you're especially stuck? have some prompt ideas below this. (but you don't need to use those if you'd prefer something else) i'm here for you, fam.

♠️ GEN PROMPTS.

• random scenario
  
• hurt/comfort
  
• murdergame au (let him be a mastermind!! or participate in a murdergame, i'm good w/ either)
  
• groundhog day / timeloops
  
• picture prompt
  
• hypnotism meme
  
• rainy day

[Good evening, Akira. Did you ask for a detective type today?

Haru was the new transfer student of Shujin Academy and she was getting a lot of attention. Her bizarre off kilter personality along with her ungodly long hair made her look like she was straight out of a horror movie. Above all else, she was a meddler who enjoyed pursuing and solve small crimes in class. She really didn't have a reason to do it beyond being bored and pursing her own sense of justice.

Though whenever she sensed something wrong, Haru intended to pursue it to the source. Right now, it was only a hunch... A mere hunch, but she wanted to visit Cafe Leblanc. A rather popular student was said to be working there. Whenever Akira comes back from whatever he was doing for the day, Haru is sitting in a seat with her long rapunzel hair hitting the floor.]

Yo! Do you always keep your customers waiting? Or this is supposed to be a tsundere cafe?

[The winter is here and the cold has settled in. Sometimes cold enough that the air bites at your cheeks and waters your eyes. Today is such a day, so when a girl busts in through the cafe door it's no surprise she's seeking shelter.

What is a surprise is her bolting through the coffee shop, leaping over the counter, and hiding behind it. Her school uniform might be unfamiliar to him, and it's clear she's the type to roll the waistband of her skirt up to show off her long legs. What's unclear is why she's decided to take up residence behind the barista's counter.

Until a small group of men just a little older than them rowdily start shouting about someone they've been chasing and lost track of. Two of the five take off and go on ahead. Three of them push their way into the shop.

When Kaname hears the men step inside she shoots a pleading look up at the boy manning the cafe, and brings a finger to her lips.]
