The Deconstruction of Persona 5

You'll find here all archived threads from the Phansite forum.

RenMamamiya

INFO: 1. We NEED Phantom Thief roleplayers, so if you want to fill that role, just ask in the comments. 2. You can bring your OCs, but don't let them take over the thread. 3. Of course god-modding will not be tolerated. This thread was based on the concept that every Persona user goes absolutely insane after they have served their purpose in the world. They would have a "suppression" or de-awakening. They would go insane one after another, have mental breakdowns, and eventually, die. Totally not inspired by Madoka Magica. Now that that is over, let us start the game!

RenMamamiya

A frizzy haired teen woke up from his bed. He looked around his room. He really wished he didn't have to come back home. It feels strange not sleeping on that old bed Soijiro gave me. Suddenly, there were flashes of that room, that velvet room, with the evil long nosed man. He kept hearing strange sounds. Your friend has fallen apart.... He had his suppression.... He is gone. And you are next. Ren felt really confused. Who is he talking about? What does he mean by suppression? He decided that he had to go back to Tokyo to figure out what was going on. He jumped out of his bed and quietly opened his window. He grabbed his old Shujin bag and jumped out. He stealthily crawled to the nearest train station. When he got there, with his surplus of money, he took the train to Yongen-Jaya.

OOC: Persona OC here. I assume this is an AU separate from Nexus canon?

ProsecutorNiijima

OOC: I also own the RenMamamiya account so what I am gonna say in these next few posts is okay. A well-known public prosecutor get's off of her train to visit Cafe Leblanc. She is arriving for more than just coffee. Then, she notices a familiar face. "Ren! I didn't think you would return so soon!" She walks up to him with a smile, looking professional, yet more excited then usual. Then, realized something, and looked down. "Oh, it is because of your cat, Morgana..."

RenMamamiya

OOC: Persona OC here. I assume this is an AU separate from Nexus canon?OOC: Don't know anything about Nexus, so yes. Just don't get too overboard kay? Don't be like a super OP persona user who is gonna take over the world.

RenMamamiya

The teen looks up at Sae, happy to see her, but very confused. She saw her gloomy expression in the cold air. "What do you mean?"

ProsecutorNiijima

Sae was surprised that Ren didn't hear what happened, it startled her. "Your friends didn't tell you... well. Makoto told me yesterday while we were eating dinner that..." She sighs. "Morgana died yesterday. He jumped into the street."

RenMamamiya

OOC: Oh, this isn't completely an alternate universe, this is based on a concept, and takes place directly after the story of Persona 5.

Senri_Suzuko

Sitting farther away from the two was a girl, probably in her teens sitting at the counter drinking a tea. She couldn't help but overhear the conversation, but simply listened so far.

RenMamamiya

Dead... Words could not express how he felt right now. Why did it have to happen... Why Morgana... Endless questions appeared in Ren's head. He turned away and looked down. The cold air got even colder. The usually busy streets grew silent. He noticed the plants were less green the usual. A life without Morgana... he was the source of their knowledge of the Metaverse... how could he go on... "Morgana... gone..."

Eito

Close to the girl, another teenager sits, taking the opportunity to eavesdrop on the two's conversation while slowly sipping coffee from a mug. "Oh no, how tragic..." The sarcasm in his whispered words is quite thick.

ProsecutorNiijima

"I apologize that I was the one to tell you. I came to give my condolences as I can't arrive for the funeral tomorrow." She sat at the counter for Soijiro to serve her.

RenMamamiya

He overheard an unpleasant boy comment on the situation. He was getting ready give a good old punch, but he stopped himself. "Is Futaba or Soijiro here?"

Cobalt

*Cobalt fades in opposite Eito* That's rude. *He looks from side to side before staring at Eito again.* Hello. I am a non-hostile entity.

Morgana-Anon

A quite familiar voice rings out to those who can hear him. "Me? Dead? Hah!" The cat walked up to Ren. Although most of the looks of the usual Mona was there, there's definitely something off about their appearance. "You really think I'd jump into traffic? You really are a "Joker" after all."

Eito

"Look into my eyes and tell me how much I care." Eito continued to sip his coffee calmly, taking a moment to stare at the obviously angered Ren before raising an eyebrow and going back to silence.

ProsecutorNiijima

"I haven't seen them." She continues to wait for Soijiro to arrive, starting to get really thirsty. She continues. "The strangest part are his last words. He can talk, so I am assuming he is around as smart as a human. Makoto told me that Morgana was acting very low on sanity yesterday, and he would keep saying things like 'I am no human,' 'I have all of the desires' 'I am dependent on you' 'You don't need me anymore.' And his final words were 'Don't let Ren go through this, even if it is impossible.'" She looked at him with a caring face.

RenMamamiya

Morgana-Anon

guess I'll die

-Forehead-

Another girl steps into the cafe and looks around, fixing up her pink blouse as she spies a familiar face, running up to Ren and taking a seat next to him Ren! Your back! You should have called! We all missed you! How are you doing? Haru then spies Sae and smiles at her as well Ah! Sae-san! Your here as well! Is everyone gathering to welcome Ren back?

Ohya

OOC congrats on killing off one of the only P5 characters people actually RP

RenMamamiya

While ignoring Eito, he listened attentively to Sae. "I'm next... " Suddenly, he started getting disturbing images in his head. He saw every event that has happened since his awakening in reverse. Arsene kept flashing everywhere until it morphed into himself. he saw images of himself doing some disturbing things until he saw his own corpse. What are these images in my head? Am I really next?

Senri_Suzuko

The girl glanced over at the conversation. She couldn't help but give a strange look. What were they talking about. Not human? A cat? Sounded like something out of a manga, she thought as she quietly sips her tea.

RenMamamiya

Then, he gets interrupted by a familiar large-foreheaded cinnamon roll. He says: "Haru! I'm fine, what's up?"

(edited by RenMamamiya)

ProsecutorNiijima

"Oh, hello Okumura-san! How is your business?"

Eito

The teenager turns to face the girl which he sat close to. "Seems like somebody had too much to drink." After finishing his newest sarcastic remark, he re-adjusts his glasses and goes back to drinking his caffeinated beverage.

-Forehead-

Haru looks at Ren with concern as he saw those images. Frowning a little Ren.. Are you going to be okay? You don't look so well. Perhaps your tired from your travels? Perhaps you should rest. You shouldn't strain yourself! I'm fine! Haru then looks back to Sae and pulls out a little packet of things, peppers, beans and other things Oh! I wanted to give Sojiro-san a taste of my vegetables! Then I happened to run into you two!

Cobalt

*Cobalt looks over Eito's shoulder.* Hello. I am a non-hostile entity. I wish to join this conversation.

RenMamamiya

"Huh? Don't worry about it. I slept in the train most of the time." He gives her a big smile to make her not worry.

Akechi_Kun

Oh, this place is still open? Akechi enters into the cafe, it was a long time since he had his coffee there, he was looking at both his phone and a file for an investigation, so he didn't really notice the people gathered there. I'll just have a normal coffe for old time's sake. he sat on a chair still focused on his file and the phone waiting for his order to be taken.

Senri_Suzuko

The girl chuckled lightly. Hah. This place doesn't serve alcohol I think. Probably should. Wish I were old enough to drink. The girl finishes her drink and stares at the glass. She seems tired. ...She noticed a familiar face she's seen on TV and narrows her eyes. She whispers to the teen next to her. Isn't that that pretty boy Akechi? I thought he disappeared...

(edited by Senri_Suzuko)

RenMamamiya

Akechi_Kun

well sad.

Peter_Parker

A young man in a red and blue costume swings through the city. Face covered by a mask. After a moment, he'd pass by the by the building everyone is gathered in, waving cheerfully as he as swings by and vanishes from sight.

Morgana-Anon

because killing off the only p5 characters people RP is a good idea

ProsecutorNiijima

Sae turns back to Ren. "Morgana also mentioned something about Akechi-kun. I think he said 'I knew I would go after Akechi. After I served my purpose of course.'"

Senri_Suzuko

OOC: Shouldn't you be more flexible? Even if you have a plot or something, you kill off two of the few characters from P5 actually used here. This just discourages people from joining your RP and will kill it fast. A good GM writes with others, not by themselves.

RenMamamiya

OOC: I promise Morgana and Akechi are the only ones. Because they had their de-awakening. But one by one each thief will grow insane and have their de-awakening... and Ren is next...

-Forehead-

If you say so.. I worry about you though! Everybody is on edge recently.. With Morgana.. Haru then looks down at her lap and clenches her fists before shaking it off, trying to smile a little back Hehe.. Sorry, we should try and stay happy while your with us. Isn't that right? Oh! Why did you come here anyways Ren?

Fat_Albert

Fat Albert walks through the town Hey hey hey, this RP is gay! He jumps into a TV

RenMamamiya

Ren looks down. "I just felt like it. I miss you guys. I miss how cheerful and positive you would be."

Cait_Sith

Protip: please say everything up front. And explain what will happen up front. I apologize on behalf of the impending shitposts. Goodnight, sweet AU.

Lopez

The sound of a tank is heard driving by the streets with some music bursting out if it and then the police begin to shoot at the tank

VelvetElizabeth

A pale woman in blue walks in. She takes a seat at the counter, briefly keeping her eye on Ren, before whispering to herself, quiet enough that no one could hear. "How engaging... The Persona users are suffering a "de-awakening"? I've not heard of a plot contrivance this bad since 2008!" Elizabeth giggles in fascination about the curious events that have begun to transpire. She brings her hand to a nearby salt shaker, and begins twirling it around before letting it tip over and spill all over the counter.

Eito

I'd say stuff but everyone else said the stuff for me. The boy looks at her and shrugs, his movements sluggish and bored. "Yup. Twas an unfortunate thing. Yet it seems we're seeing things." Taking another bored look at Ren and his friends, he downs the coffee and sighs in content.

-Forehead-

Ah I see! Well a lot has happened you know.. It's hard to stay positive but I'll try! Haru then looks down at her phone for a second as it bzztzs to life. Reading a quick notification and quickly gathering her things Ah! I have to be going! Looks like the company needed me for something! Take care Ren! Give my condolences to Sojiro! Haru then smiles before stepping outside of the cafe and waving good bye

RenMamamiya

Ren looks at the Eito and the pale woman with a strange look. "You can read minds..."

(edited by RenMamamiya)

RenMamamiya

"Welp, goodbye Haru. Take care!" Ren rushes to his room and locks the door to keep himself safe.

(edited by RenMamamiya)

ProsecutorNiijima

"Huh? Why are you running? Well, nevermind then, goodbye everyone." She leaves the cafe silently.

MyNamaSans

A dark being takes form... My nama sans He starts resetting the universe My nama sans xD

RenMamamiya

OOC: Oh no.

Eito

Eito narrows his eyes and stares at Ren for a while, frowning as he leaves. "I need a fucking drink." He gets up and starts walking to the doors.

Natsuki

A short and pink color, haired girl was wearing her school uniform and had her bookbag when she walked into the cafe. She see's everyone and hears about the weird sheningans that she overheard. Oh no. Why does this cafe look like the one I destroyed earlier? She was about to bring her manga book out so that she can destroy the cafe, but realized that there were something worse than cats so she closed her bookbag and slowly walked out of the cafe and ran away as quickly as possible from it.

RenMamamiya

He is back in his old room. He is panting and sweating from the strange images he just saw. Then he hears a distorted voice. Your suppression has begun... He falls on the floor. I miss the good old days...

VelvetElizabeth

Elizabeth remains at the counter, picking and tossing around small grains of the salt at a time, continuing to talk to no one in particular. "You ever get the feeling you're just a background element of someone else's story?"

Morgana-Anon

The peculiar Mona, though supposed to be dead because the GM said so, speaks up anyway. "Tell me about it."

RenMamamiya

I wish I could fight Personas again. I wish I could become a Phantom Thief again. I wonder where Soijiro is. I wonder where Futaba is. I wonder where everyone is. He jumps out of the window of the cafe and heads straight to Mementos.

RenMamamiya

Oh, I forgot Mementos was destroyed. He opens up his phone and searches through the Phansite looking for pottential palace rulers. Heh. This got much memey-er ever since I left. He starts entering ever name he could find into the navigator, hoping for a hit. But he was unsuccessful.

(edited by RenMamamiya)

Senri_Suzuko

The girl from before had followed Ren in secret. She found that conversation from earlier too peculiar to just write off. For now, she watched him from a distance, peeping on him from around the corner of a building.

RenMamamiya

No hit... will I ever relive my days as being a phantom thief? Ren went to his school in hope to see a certain Ryuji there. I already know my fate. I already know is fate. I must warn him.

RenMamamiya

OOC: *waits for a ryuji roleplayer*

Shadow_Ryuji

Ryuji slowly walked into the Cafe, holding his left side of the chest after he was shot back in Chcago for attempting to nuke the city. Him and Morgana split up so that no one can catch them. He saw a booth and laid down on there. He put his hat and shotgun on the table next to him so that he can nap. *Moans* Damn, this hurts. Harry shot me good. I can't find a safe place here so I can chill here. Hope no one is here, this place is as dead as ever. Ryuji put his head on the cushion of the booth and slept, ignoring the others and pretending that they are "not there".

ProsecutorNiijima

Sae notices one of the Phantom Thieves walk into Leblanc, except he looks a little bit... different. But she couldn't put her finger on it. "Hello Sakamoto-kun. Are you okay?"

Shadow_Ryuji

Ryuji wakes up from a familiar voice. He slowly looks up and see's Sae. He thought he would never see the day that they would meet again. For a while, he always had a "passion of hate" feeling towards her for what she did to his old leader. He brings out his shotgun (SPAS-12) and points it at Sae. What the eff do you want! Are you going to put me in prison too? Are you going to put in trial? Don't waste your breathe on me! He slowly gets up and keeps on pointing the shotgun at Sae.

ProsecutorNiijima

Sae startled by his sudden change of behavior. The people in Leblanc get extremely frightened. "You didn't hear? I became allies of the Phantom Thieves! Ren-kun can confirm this!" She looks at him in the eyes. "I'm a prosecutor, and I have a lot of power. I can always tell the police, but I won't do that. Because you changed so many peoples hearts."

RenMamamiya

OOC: Eff it. Eff everything. There are no rules. Morgana and Akechi are alive if you want. Do what ever you want. Go crazy. I don't care anymore.

Nexus

with the announcement that there were no more rules The universe itself literally exploded God modding everyone to death

(edited by Nexus)

Shadow_Ryuji

Ryuji heard what Sae said. He did not want to believe what she said. He heard the same crap many times from many people but in the end, it was all lies. He just wanted the women, money, and fame. Shut the hell up! You're lying. He went back to his hometown. He never came back for us... Welp, I'm outta here. If you follow me, your dead. Ryuji put his hat back on and holstered his shotgun and left the Cafe.

RenMamamiya

"sUPrISe MotHErefFeR"

RenMamamiya

"Well, he made a good choice to leave the cafe." Joker ripped off his costume and was revealed actually be Akechi. "IT IS I, AKECHI! MUAHAHAHAHAHA."

Ohya

Ohya, who had been in the cafe the entire time, took this chance to rip off her costume and reveal she was actually the protagonist the entire time! "I'm in charge now." Ohya, Phantom Thief Neo-Joker said.

ProsecutorNiijima

The prosecutor gets up. "Hello Goro want some sushi ;))))))" She pinches his cheeks for 24 hours.

RenMamamiya

"Ughhhh I can't take this anymore!" He rips off his costume revaling to be Yusuke. "Hello bitches."

ProsecutorNiijima

The prosecutor rips off her costume revealing to be Futaba. "Ohhhhhh Inari said a bad wooooooooord"

RenMamamiya

The artist rips savenges for Soijiros food in case any jangariko is in there.

Ohya

Okay for real you can feel free to stop bumping this anytime.

HmMmM

A blue haired man walks into CafÃ© Leblanc. He takes a good look at the "Sayuri" while starving himself. "Hm." He walks out and is never to be seen again.

RenMamamiya

The once gentle artist boy stares into the Sayuri's soul. "I can't afford anymore canvases, I guess I will have to paint over the Sayuri." He paints it white and then paints a Ren stick figure.

Camziez

A girl dashes into Leblanc and slaps the Sayuri out of the artist's reach. "Have no fear! Camziez is here! I will put an end of you in the name of art!" She slaps him.

(edited by Camziez)

RenMamamiya

His costume falls off revealing to be Ryuji. "You didn't have to effing slap me woman!"

ProsecutorNiijima

The gremlin girl rips off her costume revealing to be Ann. She slaps Ryuji.

Hibiki

Listen, I hate to do this, really, but... This is supposed to be an RP topic but the plot was basically dropped earlier and is going on with no direction, and you have been continuously bumping this. Normally I wouldn't have a huge problem with this but you've bumped this RP topic multiple times in the last several hours, at this point I'm gonna just have to mark this as spam and consider this a warning.
