You See Them (Fanfic)	comment	You See Them is a series of Persona 5 Alternate Universe Fanfic by June-Luxray.Ren Amamiya has spent his whole life seeing people who no one else can and being called crazy.

Additionally, a side-story covering interactions with his confidants (including the Royal ones) began on August 31, 2020.The sequel, We See Them, covers the added content from Royal and began production in October 2020. An Interquel covering the DLC campaign of Persona 5 Tactica, You See Them - Repaint Your Heart, began production in December 2023 and finished in February 2024, with plans of doing the main story at a later date.The author has also confirmed plans for an adaptation of Persona 5 Strikers.

Which, you know, wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for the fact that right as he was about to start recovering his energy, Maruki kidnapped him. After that's dealt with, he has to take a day to recover before they start the mission.

Cut back to Leblanc where Ren's parents are calling, and Sojiro accidentally lets slip that he knows about Ren's powers, causing them to flip out.

You See Them (Fanfic) / int_15f64844	comment	Lying by Omission: The only choice left to Joker, Rose, and Violet when they're sucked into the Metaverse with Akechi in the middle of the casino heist. While they cover up the fact that Ren can and has always been able to see ghosts, they tell the truth about Kasumi being one, how she watches over Sumire, how both twins Awakened to their Personas in a mysterious Palace in Odaiba, and how they've been talking things out in Mementos. And when they finish their adventure in the Streets, Ren promises to tell him the truth when the time is right if he's lying, and Akechi is forced to leave the matter aside with the Casino heist so close. The original fic, though, does have a slight Retcon in the engine room to reference this change.

After all of that, Maruki's attempts to justify his actions for the supposed sake of their happiness fell flat.

This only served to make them feel worse about the problem instead.

You See Them (Fanfic) / int_1cf11f13	comment	No Sympathy: When the ghosts decide that Akechi's punishment for his crimes is that he's going to help every single one of his victims find peace and pass on, with the addendum that they're probably going to haunt him until he's finished, none of the Thieves offer him even a hint of sympathy; if anything, they're laughing. Ren is flat-out glad that he's not going to be the one who's helping the ghosts move on in this case. Of course, it's justified in that Akechi did help frame the Thieves for Kunikazu Okumura's murder (which he was guilty of), killed both Kunikazu himself and Futaba's mother Wakaba, and directly or indirectly killed every single one of the other aforementioned ghosts...

Cut to 21 chapters later, and Goro Akechi gains the ability after the Thieves barely save him from his attempted sacrifice.

This fic adds a fourth question relevant to the fic: In the game, the only time that the Thieves agreed with Maruki was the third question, where when asked what they would do with the power to steal hearts, the "correct" answer was to do what they did: steal evil hearts to fix society. However, they agree with Maruki that the answer to the fourth question is A. Of course, he did base his reasoning on his interactions with Joker.

The first is Kaneko, the senior pupil of Madarame's who committed suicide and didn't actually move on. Yusuke enthusiastically handles his final regret of conveying the wonders he'd seen from Everest's peak to the ocean floor in an expansive piece of art. The second is Madarame himself who, after dying from a stroke, decides to follow Kaneko's example in an attempt of coming to terms with everything. It's implied it will be a long journey.

He comes to understand the drawbacks of the power for the first time in Chapter 8 when, sometime after the events of We See Them, Madarame dies of a stroke and Yusuke has to deal with his ghost.

You See Them (Fanfic) / int_487c525d	comment	The ghost of the real Kasumi absolutely despises Dr. Maruki for his Brainwashing for the Greater Good act on Sumire. When Maruki admits to his knowledge of her and tries to talk to her, she refuses to hear a word he says. A pity, that, as it would have given crucial insight into his master plan. And while her hatred diminishes somewhat as they infiltrate his Palace, she's never going to condone anything he does.

However, it isn't full-blown Mind Control like Yaldabaoth's - it appears, at first glance, to be a strong suggestion/More than Mind Control. This is later implied to be because Maruki found out about the existence of ghosts thanks to Ren's ability to see them.

You See Them (Fanfic) / int_d5929047	comment	Revealing Injury: Joker manages to shoot Black Mask in the shoulder when he shows up to assassinate Okumura, though it's not enough to save him. Okumura later spies on Shido as a ghost and overhears that the medical treatment for Black Mask's gunshot wound was being publicized as an operation for appendicitis - the same reason Mishima had just given the Thieves for Akechi's sudden disappearance from the public eye.

You See Them (Fanfic) / int_dd5faec5	comment	Only Mostly Dead: Kayo Murakami, Ichiko Ohya's partner, was left comatose and braindead after a mental shutdown, as in canon. This was enough for her soul to manifest as a ghost despite her body still being technically alive; it's further muddled since Kayo mentions others in the same circumstances have not become ghosts, and they theorize it depends which parts of the brain are damaged beyond repair. Unlike other examples, though, there doesn't seem to be any hope of recovery; the possibility comes up, but Kayo believes that any hope died when she became a ghost.

You See Them (Fanfic) / int_e7f67516	comment	Point of Divergence: In the original DLC, to preserve continuity in Royal, the Thieves got Laser-Guided Amnesia after freeing Tao/Guernica from the Streets. In this story, the fact that Ren, Akechi, and the twins keep their memories changes Tao's fate drastically. Akechi, in an act of genuinely benign passion, locates Luca's body for a proper burial and rakes her parents over the coals for abandoning her and Tao. Ren gives Tao a business card for Leblanc, telling her to come by if she needs a meal, and she immediately becomes a regular and a confidant (though not a Confidant). And while she plans to set up a tattoo parlor in Yongen-Jaya so she can have some steady legitimate income, she's also adamant about joining the Phantom Thieves' efforts when it comes to helping ghosts, the better to help kids like her and Luca. All in all, a much happier ending.

She describes it as hitting a wall and bouncing back. It's implied, and later confirmed, that Maruki had set this up: not only has he barred anyone from passing through to the Sea of Souls, he's trying to summon others back from it.
