Link to both are down in the comments, please go check them out! π©·

Fem!Ren and Fem!Akechi, dressed in their Phantom Thief gear, are hidden away between the golden pillars at the entrance of Sae Nijima's palace. The camera is facing Akechi's back and tilted downwards, both figures are backlit by the golden lights of the casino. Fem!Ren is in usual Joker Regalia, with long curly hair and red stained lips, she has a challenging grin on her face as she invade's Akechi's space with and arm holding both Crow's red mask, and Joker's domino mask hooked over Akechi's shoulders. She is leaning in a for a kiss, eyes wide open. Fem!Akechi is in her prince outfit with a pleated white skirt with gold and red trimming. Her eyes aren't visible, and her hand is pressed on Ren's chest- it is unclear if she is pulling her in or pushing her away.
I also got a chance to work with the lovely @therapist-solarist.bsky.social for the Tanabata BB. If you're a fem!akeshuake connoisseur, this is the fic for you!!

Back with more art for @akeshuakeevents.bsky.social Big Bang! Was so much fun making art for @blackmaskjoker.bsky.social fic!

Goro faces the viewer, surrounded by smiling helmets as he wears a broken and cracked one on his head. He has a pleasant smile on his face and he's wearing his Detective Prince school uniform. The text on the image reads 'You came for me, Ren.'
Goro and Ren are locked in a mockery of a waltz, with Ren holding Goro's hand out and away from him and Goro leaning in close to Ren's face. They're both blushing and Ren looks close to tears as Goro murmurs to him. The text on the image reads, 'Oh, that's gorgeous. I love that miserable look on your face.'
A zoomed out view of the Brainwashing Vestibule. It's completely destroyed, with chairs upended and broken wires strewn everywhere. In the middle of it sits Joker, his head hidden in his hands. Goro stands over him at a distance.
Fun fact: our group chat was named "torture chamber" if you want an idea of what you're getting into (2/2)

Goro fits a chair under a doorknob in a dark, dreary room. The door is already locked shut with multiple types of locks and bars. To Goro's left on the wall is a poster with a smiling face that says 'Be Happy!' There is another poster below which reads: 'Rules: 1) Wish your way to happiness. 2) If happiness is elusive, review the orientation material.'
Ren tackles Goro while Goro holds a smoking gun. The Phantom Thieves in pajamas look on in horror.
Ren and Goro sit on a bed in a cozy bedroom. On a nearby desk is a Jack Frost plush. Hanging on the wall are several posters: a Phantom Thieves poster, an advertisement for the Jazz Jin, and a poster of Mona looking dour with 'Hang in there Mona' written beneath him. Ren is in his pajamas and Goro is in his Metaverse costume, sans helmet and one of his gauntlets. Ren's hand covers Goro's bare hand on the bed as he looks at him with an adoring expression, and Goro smiles without looking back at him.
Joker stands over Goro. Joker is holding his knife and has a look of shock on his face. Below him, Goro is mostly covered up by the broken helmet on his head, multiple wires coming out the top of it. The small hint of clothes Goro is wearing looks suspiciously like his Detective Prince blazer.
I teamed up with @shouldbeworking.bsky.social for the Tanabata Big Bang! Your writing made me so insane, I did not one (1) but SEVEN (7!!) illustrations for it. I can't wait to see everyone collectively lose their minds too. (1/2)

Ren touching the small crow on the last page of the book
A short conversation between Akechi and Mishiko. Feather Pink is obviously the superior one (Akechi will not fight a child over this)
Ren peeking out behind the classroom doors, watching Akechi waxing about philosophy (nerd)
An akeshuake ramen date!
Howdy howdy happy Akeshuake Tanabata Big Bang ππ

Crow and Joker from Persona 5 stand back to back, both nervously wondering where the other has wondered off to.
As our duo find themselves wondering where the other has gone....
The clock is ticking down as we enter the last day of sign ups for the #Akeshuake Tanabata Big Bang! Remember: Sign Ups close at 11:59 EST! If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to message us!

In the foreground, Crow wistfully leans against a railing with the words "5 days left" while staring up at the stars. In his hand, a tanzaku with Joker's mask dangles. In the background, Joker with a comical crying expression wonders where Crow went.
It seems our duo has lost each other... What rotten luck.... But look, it seems Crow might have a wish for a certain someone he hasn't hung up yet!
Hurry, Crow! We only have 5 days left until sign ups close! Don't miss your chance to sign up for the #akeshuake Tanabata Big Bang!

As we've had several people ask us about this, we have zero intention of policing the name used for the Protagonist.. Please do not feel as if you need to change what you use to appeal to the mods. You may use whichever name you prefer.
#akatbb2025
An image of Joker hanging up a tanzaku, the string forms a little heart. In the background, Akechi looks for him but seems to be unable to spot him
Oh, my! What's this? It seems Crow might have lost track of Joker while grabbing his takoyaki...
Make sure you don't lose track of the time, because we have 10 days left until sign ups for the #Akeshuake Tanabata Big Bang close!

Since we're at the halfway point have a silly question, if akeshuake participated in a big bang like this, which role do you think either of them would take? Would they end up matched or are they doomed to be two star-crossed lovers?
#akatbb2025
When the artists finally get a chance to see all the cool ideas the writers have #akatbb2025
We're officially halfway through our sign up period! It's been wonderful seeing what everyone has cooking for the #akeshuake Tanabata Big Bang so far (and we're gazing as excitedly as little Joker)!
Remember: we're happy to answer any questions, either through DMs or Neospring!

Just as a reminder: this is NOT a zine, and therefore we don't require you to give us a portfolio as part of sign up. All who fill out the form will be accepted into the bang, as long as they meet our two requirements (being 18+ and not using generative AI).
#akatbb2025
What's this? It seems our favorite duo found something interesting at the festival. Whatever could it be...?
