    Summary

    "All right," says Akechi, settling grimly into his booth seat like he's getting ready for a war. "I'll entertain your misguided opinions. What elevates Black Condor above every other Featherman not just in the current flight, but in every other flight that's ever been on the screen?"

    And once again Ren is staring the awkward truth in the face. I'm not really into Featherman. I lied the other day. I just couldn't cope with living in Tokyo without you, so I had to take weird measures, haha. Yeah, you're right, it is pretty pathetic. No, don't leave.


    It starts when Ren buys a Featherman keychain in memory of his rival. No problems so far, except that his rival is dead, and Tokyo is a hollowed-out husk without him. But when Ren runs into Akechi at a midnight premiere, the landscape changes, and he's faced with his biggest challenge since he killed his last god: Convince Goro Akechi that he likes Featherman.

    Summary

    Texting Akira Kurusu is all good fun until Goro learns a hard truth from Teen Vague magazine: that texting is a game of manipulation and deceit, and Akira is beating Goro spectacularly. But no matter; every game has rules to learn and master. If texting is a game, then Goro Akechi is going to win.

    Written for the Showtime Zine (2021).

    Summary

    “You told him you were your own ghost?” says Makoto. She’s trying to sound disapproving, but she can’t hide the note of shocked laughter.

    “How’d he take it?” says Ryuji, in roughly the way you’d inquire after a really horrible bug.

    Ren thinks about the demon stalking through Mementos cursing and cackling and calling out his name. Joker, Joker! “Uh,” he says. “Badly.”

    Summary

    Ren had never been very good with authority. Now the authoritative pressures he felt compelled to disobey were the bossy older boy who had tried to kill him and the mysterious supernatural force pulling the two of them together. Having shot one supernatural force in the head very recently, Ren wasn’t particularly inclined to follow the whims of any others.


    In Maruki's new reality, an accident of actualization has a unique effect on Goro and Ren– one that neither boy will adapt to easily.
