I've Played Dark Souls 3 And I Gotta Ask

Giant tarantulas keep tiny frogs as pets. Insects will eat the burrowing tarantulas’ eggs - so the spiders protect the frogs from predators, and in return the frogs eat the insects. Source

Me: *Removes my cat from my lap to do something else.*

My cat: Father is...evil? Father is unyielding? Father is incapable of love? I am running away. I am packing my little rucksack and going out to explore the world as a lone vagabond. I can no longer thrive in this household.

     You know what I would love to see? Persona 5 character’s possible palace and sin. 

     LET ME TALK ABOUT YUUKI MISHIMA’S PALACE! And maybe I’ll be lucky to see someone inspired to write, draw or talk about it as well. Note if you feel like you’ve seen it some where my other blog is @lunadubium.

    Palace Itself - Shrine - The reason the Palace distortion looks like a shrine is because of the fact the website accumulates tons of ‘fans’ who are devoted. It’s huge and extravagant unlike most smaller more humble shrine and the symbol of the PT hangs on the wall. In the very center at the beginning there is a huge altar for worshipers to pray and pour their money into for the PT. Where Mishima’s treasure is very deep inside the place in a much more broken alter sealed off from the rest of the shrine. Unlike the ambiguous symbol of PT this secret altar has the face of the protagonist, cause only he knows the true face of the god. 

    Mishima’s Shadow - High Priest - He considers himself the messenger between the ‘gods’ (Phantom Thieves) and the normal peasants. He is personally connected to them and thus sees himself as said messenger to the gods who deserves everyone’s respect. Especially as the website grows bigger and bigger with each connection he makes and the revenue it brings.

    Residents - The website guest - Most of the people that visit the shrine seem like normal people except their faces are covered with masks. Cause they are online no one shows their faces though it’s taken off when they reveal names they want to be targeted. This is how Mishima slowly has ‘disciples’ to help spread the good will of the thieves.

     Treasure - White Jade Prayer Beads - These are at the altar that only shadow Mishima prays too for meeting the personal god. No one is to touch these beads as they were a gift from the god themselves and thus sacred. 

     Treasure (In reality) - The Phantom Thieves Flyer from after Kamoshida - While pretty much worthless by itself to fans of the thieves these are priceless. As these were made by the Phantom Thieves right before they truly established themselves. And for Mishima, this is when he started to feel hope and began to see them as his ‘religion’. The gods above didn’t hear his plea but human gods did.

     Enemies - Monks and priestess - The enemies in this Palace take on the appearance of those that serve the high priestess. Though their mask seems to be more like those Shinto mask hiding their identity with other gods or demons. Likely as a way to show how Mishima believes such things should be serving these human gods. 

     Sin - Pride/Greed - To Mishima, this religion is just a way to lift himself even higher than ever before and to escape his ‘zero’ status. Thinking of himself as above and sapping money from the ignorant he loves it and doesn’t want to stop even if doesn’t really need all the money given. But don’t worry, he makes sure the thieves get their cut, after all, they are the gods of his religion and he is forever in their debt.

    General - This palace is purely sacrilegious and the shadow Mishima is aware but doesn’t care. To him, the religion of the phantom thieves isn’t cause he truly believes they are gods but because it gives him a way to be important. Claiming it’s not his fault the ignorant masses actually believes these human thieves are people who can solve all their problems. But he loves the PT he truly does and while doesn’t see them as literal gods he is willing to worship them as long as they find him useful. In this verse, Mishima is corrupt to the core with his palace distorted by his own desire for importance. 

EDIT:

Keywords - “Yuuki Mishima, Phantom Afficianado, Shrine” as Mishima see the website as the very source of worship.

Yang

-She’s more angry at the fact that you never told her in the first place. 

-I mean, why in the world would you not tell her, your girlfriend, of such a negative quality about your semblance.

-Strongly encourages you not to use your semblance, if anything she will go on ever single mission you go on to make sure that you don’t use it.

-Though if the situation calls for it, then she will understand.

-”The idea of you dying puts me on edge, but the thought of you forgetting me terrifies me.” 

The only way to put "Markarth" and "safe" in the same string of words in when you put "is not" in the middle

“Welcome to Markarth, safest city in the Reach.” Within ten minutes of arriving I’ve witnessed a murder, become caught up in a civil war, and found Molag Bal squatting in someone’s basement.
