Summary
When Ann realizes their math teacher has spotted Akira nodding off in the desk behind hers, she braces herself for what's about to follow. Sure enough, the chalk flies past her and hits Akira smack in the forehead, knocks him awake, and sends a flurry of horrible nightmare syllables tumbling out of his mouth from the sheer surprise.
The language of Shadows sounds sharp and strange in the mundane banality of the classroom. Ann schools her expression, and does her best to project an air of nope, nothing's wrong, nothing to see here, there's definitely no one speaking in horrible eldritch tongues, why would you even say that?
-//-
-//-In which Shadows have a language of their own, and the power of the Wild Card lets Akira speak it too.
It's too bad it makes him sound like he's speaking in some kind of cursed, inhuman, monster tongue, but the rest of the Phantom Thieves get used to it.
Eventually.

Summary
Sure, the sleeping ailment may have been annoying, but if it meant that Joker finally got some rest now and then, then it was worth it- even if it requires going behind his back a little.
For months now, Joker believes that the shadows of Mementos keep knocking him out, but it's actually his teammates.
What? He's too stubborn to listen to anything else, this was their last resort- they swear.
(It has absolutely nothing to do with how adorable and cuddly he gets in his sleep, Crow stop looking at us like that- you'll see what I mean.)

Summary
Horror flooded Akira's steel gray eyes, and Goro wondered if this was the look Akira had given the interrogators before Goro gifted him a swift death. The horrified look differed from the dead-inside, impassive one Akira gave him in the interrogation room. Did this mean killing Akira had all been his cognition? That he’d imagined Akira facing his silencer with little more than a blank, drugged stare?
Did he look like this instead? Scared and unable to run away like a cornered, injured animal facing his next beating?
Goro found himself shaking, seething. “You…” His eyes watered as anguish filled every particle of his body. “You died.”
—
Goro visits Leblanc the day after killing Akira, desperate for his own proof of Akira's death.

Summary
Joker prepares to charge into battle, trusting Mona to take care of unattended injuries. The moment he pushes forth though, Crow abruptly stops.
He even drops a struggling Panther, letting her fall to the floor where she wheezes for air. Violet rushes to her side to pull her out of Crow's immediate vicinity, carefully keeping an eye on him.
Crow just keeps staring at Joker, an unreadable expression in his glowing eyes, their intensity positively bone melting.
Joker's never been afraid of Crow.
or: A brainwashed Crow goes on a rampage. Surely there must be a way to stop him?

Summary
“I’m really okay, Makoto,” he says. “It was just rough being with my parents. I’ll bounce back. I always do, don’t I?”
“That’s… true,” Makoto says, even if she sounds unsure of the words she’s saying. “Just… I think…”
“Whatever it is, you can say it,” Akira says.
“I think therapy might be a good idea,” Makoto says, almost in a rush.
