The Happiness Game! by engraved (Ludicrously_Idiotic), shouldbeworking
Fandoms: Persona 5
15 Nov 2025
Tags
Summary
The Phantom Thieves have nearly secured their route through Maruki's Palace. There’s only one section left: The Twilight Corridor. A paradise where everything is perfect, and everyone is always smiling.
In order to enter that place, the Thieves must first prove they've "completed orientation" and can be "happy." There are points, there is a scoreboard, and they’re locked together in an experimental space where wishes can be granted by simply saying them aloud. Everyone has to individually earn 100 happiness points, or no one is leaving.
So what is “happiness,” really? How does Maruki define happiness? What the hell is a quantifiable happiness point? Is there any way around this? Don’t these stupid kids realize this is a trick to get them to fall back into the thrall of Maruki’s reality? And why can’t Goro earn any fucking points?
(Or: I've been watching too much Dropout Game Changer and I’ve built an Akechi torture chamber.)
Includes illustrations by the amazing engraved!

Summary
“Come on, Ren-kun,” Yukari nudges Ren as he slumps. “I dove into being Pink Argus with little experience myself, and I haven’t regretted it since. Maybe you’ll feel the same.”
Ren thinks about it. His life really couldn’t and shouldn’t revolve completely around the shadow world, he supposes. And he’s not obligated to do any more than this if acting doesn’t agree with him after all.
Ann’s going to freak. Futaba is going to lose her shit.
“You remember the Phantom Thieves of Hearts business a few years back?” The director asks. “It won’t be a complete one to one, but I do have to admit that this series’ plot is loosely based on it.”
Okay, now that’s just unfair. Now Ren has to take the role.
So that’s how Ren becomes a Featherman Ranger.
Or, Amamiya Ren becomes a Featherman actor, bases his character off Akechi, and the real Akechi Goro disastrously simps from afar.

Summary
"GREAT! Just great! As if this could GET any better!" Zanka bites out, seething. Of course he's stuck here, injured, in a damp, dirty cell, and of course he's stuck here with fucking Jabber of all people.
Jabber whistles appreciatively, "Man, you're in a mood today. Wake up on the wrong side of the bed?" and cackles at his own joke. Zanka's gonna strangle him. He's gonna rip out those bars with his bare hands and use them to beat Jabber to death.
or
Zanka is taken by some people who want to study givers. Jabber is there too. This somehow makes everything both better and so much worse.

Summary
After a while of just being post apocalyptic people just eventually have relationship drama and, you know, space pirates and the ever present threat of death. Normal young adult things, you know?
Alternatively a vague meditation on why relationships end and why obsessing over things isn't a great idea.

Summary
Kiyoomi closes his eyes, slowly. He prays that the ground opens up and swallows him whole. He prays that a whole earthquake rocks Tokyo and brings the place down on him, specifically. He prays that some higher power decides to strike him with lightning right this minute.
“Actually,” he says, grinding it out through clenched teeth, “you haven’t seen any other kids around, have you?”
It's Kiyoomi's last resort to ask a stranger for help finding his sister's missing kids, but it's not like this night can get any weirder, and Miya Atsumu's kind of hot.

Summary
An AU where the Lan Xichen is the Emperor; Lan Wangji is the Crown Prince; the Jin, Jiang, and Nie are Dukedoms; and even 13 years dead, Wei Wuxian is still the most feared man in all of China. Newly resurrected, Wei Wuxian would love nothing more than to cultivate a core and go become a rogue cultivator.
Except, there's something very suspicious going on in the Imperial Palace, and while Wei Wuxian might not be able to help Lan Wangji in solving it, the unassuming and soft-spoken "Prince-Concubine Mo" sure can.

Summary
Sokka is captured by the Fire Nation just as Ba Sing Se falls. Due to be executed on Fire Lord Ozai’s orders, Zuko steps in and claims Sokka as his war prize, taking him as his First Consort.
It’s not a match made in heaven, but more of a fight to the finish line. Sokka wants to be free and Zuko wants to take down Ozai. Neither of them know if the Avatar lives, but they need to work together if they want to succeed.
There’s just the small matter of both of them having to convince the Fire Nation court that they are lovers, rather than mortal enemies…

Summary
Six months ago, a devastating qi deviation had ruined Shen Jiu's cultivation and with it, his chances of becoming peak lord. Now, his Shizun offered him an unexpected opportunity: Cang Qiong was seeking a marriage alliance with one of the sects of the other human realm, where Yunmeng Jiang's young sect leader was in dire straits and infamously unwed, to boot. As one last favor to repay Shen Jiu for years of service, he would ensure Shen Jiu was chosen as Cang Qiong's match.
Marrying a leader instead of becoming one wasn't what Shen Jiu had worked so hard for, but if this was his last, best chance at securing a future for himself, he would damn well fight tooth and nail for it (and maybe, just maybe, his cultivation wouldn't be so broken at all by the standards of a realm where nobody ascended and immortality was the stuff of legends.)
Jiang Cheng just wanted to get through one fucking date without fucking it up. Just once. Please.

Summary
Before Wei Wuxian can say he will join Jiang Cheng and attend the Wen indoctrination, a letter describing the burning of the Cloud Recesses reaches Lotus Pier.
Realizing the danger to the Jiang sect, he decides to stay behind to help with the defenses and keep his sect safe. While he agonizes over the fate of the disciples sent as little more than hostages, he upgrades the wards of the Jiang sect to stand against the inevitable Wen army.
Lotus Pier will survive, and Wei Wuxian changes his own fate and the fate of the Sunshot Campaign.

Summary
The Sunshot Campaign begins with Wei Wuxian in a most precarious position: trapped within Nightless City under the looming thumb of Wen Ruohan and his sons. With no core and few allies, there is little one can do within the bounds of one as strong as Wen Ruohan, hm?
The aconite is growing beautifully, however.

Summary
At sixteen Wei Wuxian is—through some strange twist of fate, or a nick in the layer between parallel universes, who knows—out of the blue confronted with that one incense burner dream one night.
While his curious mind is left unable to stop poking at this new perspective on Lan Wangji, circumstances in the Cloud Recesses begin to change and Wei Wuxian is suddenly presented with life-altering opportunities.
Maybe Gusu isn’t so bad after all?
(Or alternatively: The fic where I get to give Wei Wuxian the academic scholarship he deserves while simultaneously getting him hitched early on.)
This fic has a Spanish and a Portuguese translation! Please visit the links in the Notes of Chapter 1 to read!

Summary
Zoro grunts, likely because she hits him with more force than either of them are expecting, and then returns her surprise with one of his own by wrapping his arms around her and hugging her back.
“They hurt you?” He murmurs, and she shakes her head.
“Nothing I couldn’t handle.” She insists, although which of them she’s trying to reassure, she isn’t certain.
