There's a lot more of this universe coming.  It's just in the queue.  This is the sidestep to the other crossover with Yakuza where Narukami is a Patriarch and Yosuke is a cabaret club manager.
It's Verdict because I was trying to come up with a universe name, came up with a codename instead, and it kind of stuck.  Because Verdict, Judgment, haha.  Very clever *sarcasm* anyway.  You've probably seen if you've read my other P4 works that I like friend!ship stuff with Yosuke and Chie, and Yagami and Saori friend!ship from my Judgment stories, so I think you can guess the casting in this story from there.  (I have a big casting board, but I'm still re-casting a few roles, so I'm not sharing that yet.)  Kubo is Hattori, because they're both slimy weasels.  Narukami is Mafuyu and Kirijo, eyepatch and all, is a slightly less approachable Patriarch (as opposed to Matsugane).
also it doesn't appear in this fic or any of the others so far but it is important so I'm sharing it here: Jun Kurosu is Majima and Tatsuya Suou is Kiryu.
reminder chinpira = low level thugs.
also if you have any suggestions for equivalent music i'd love to hear them.  I want to get a slightly different feel so i don't want to just use Judgment OST for writing (as good as it is).

Shirogane is actually undercover as Shiro-kun, but Yosuke isn’t going to make him dress up in a skirt and make him uncomfortable. He was a bit confused when it turned out he’d made the perfect choice as to cabaret club to work for to look into the hostess murders though.
reminder for Chie's hostess name from the notes for A Better Day, also in this universe: Keiko
Also Yukiko is Yuki-chan because the idea of throwing another quirky Yuki-chan at Majima was too funny
kanji frequently fights with tables and chairs

Main Points:

Chapter Summary: Patriarch Narukami has a crush on Cabaret Club owner Hanamura.  Majima calls 'em like he sees 'em (and is tempted to do the right thing despite himself).

pre-Yu/Yosuke, though Yosuke only worked it out this fic also possibly pre-or-current yukiko/chie

( yosuke's gotten used to the weird, at least )

 

Saki is Hermit Arcana, and her Persona is probably a Changeling, because she doesn’t feel like she fits in.
oh yeah forgot to add hope everyone that celebrates Father's Day had a great day, and for anyone who doesn't, I hope you had a great day anyway!

yosuke is trans though it's only really referenced in this one.  him being bi (and mostly only worried about further bullying/how others will treat him once they know) is more obvious.

( to be fair there's a lot on his mind )

this time, some research thanks to the other transfic in the P4 Ao3 section.  i have no idea when i started this to be fair.  slightly going over old ground but otherwise not.
apologies for awful punful titles

Chapter Summary: Chie's going to make this right even if she has to kick everyone to do so.
Word Count: 1087
Rating: teen for, this time, Chie's swearing plus the actual content
Warnings: dysphoria, panic attack, vague references to self-harm/possible suicide as some statistics are not kind to trans folks which Chie's figured out

Main Points:
Persona 4 AU
Summary: There's a kitsune Yosuke who happens to run into Souji and Nanako in trouble and get him and his friends tangled up in the world of the Kami (and vice versa).
I have no idea what I was doing with tenses.  Which is a tell that it's old.  Occasionally I have tense issues for absolutely no good reason in more recent works, but I tend to actually catch it.  I have no idea who Death-kun is.  Contains a pretty strong absolute lack of any sort of research.
I'm not sure if it's cringe or kind of fun.  Both, probably.  I have more Kitsune Yosuke stuff, including the one with Angel I have to get back to (I have things written out of order as usual but I'm telling that one chronologically so can't just post it) and one that I have to type up (which I'll get back to because I have no time for that right now).
This is part summary, part story.

Main Points:
Persona 4 Sea of the Unconscious
Summary: Yosuke was not part of the original investigation team. In fact, he wasn't even part of their world. He was a huge fanboy. And then he fell into Inaba, and his life changed forever...
Really old, so not perfectly written, and it was during my FONTS EXIST phase. Slightly inspired by Chisotahn's Ten Steps fic. The entire concept is a little chuuni/Gary Stu. I don't think it would be bad with some tweaking, but that's tweaking i don't really want to do, so we've got this instead.
Aeon Yosuke continues to be awesome.  If hurt from the last adventure.  He also messes with the fourth wall in a meta way.  There's also summaries of the next couple floors, because I wasn't kidding about Hermit pretty much broke my creativity for this story.  There's also the end, which if you're hoping for a well-written ending, you're...not going to find it.  It's pretty much just the lead up to the revelation without the revelation, plus a little flirting.

also, this is the last alternative paths non-Buffy work I've got to post (yay!) and I've got a lot of Bloody Petals and other Buffy works I want to post, so that'll probably take this posting slot starting next week.  not last week.  i sadly have no time machine.
