Just to have a place to do stuff with this AU!Akechi without digging for memes.

[ She is actually willing to pretend he's a part of the Phantom Thieves for Akira's sake. If Akira needs him here then who was she to argue? ]

I can work to keep things professional if that's what it takes, Akechi-san. Akira-kun thinks highly of you after all.

[ Although finding out that additional information brought a pain to her chest. So her father's death were to target her and her friends. It was partially her fault for existing which brought about his demise. That doesn't make her feel much better but she's going to take it with her stride. ]

Thank you for providing this information to me, Akechi-san. I have a lot to think about in regards to what has happened. And a lot to prepare for.

[Well, the point he was trying to make was that her father was marked for death because of his own ambitions and it just made him a convenient scapegoat. But he can't correct Haru's misinterpretation if she doesn't bring it up, so...]

Yes, Shido's Palace is quite dangerous, and gaining access to his Treasure will no doubt be difficult. We all need to be well prepared.

Oh. Sakamato has suggested I should be more honest with all of you, so in the interest of transparency, I should probably say that there is one more thing I have to tell everyone that will most certainly come as a surprise. However, since it is something I need to tell all of the Phantom Thieves, my current intention is to share the information when we gather to begin the infiltration.

Don't worry, it's nothing concerning. As a matter of fact, it's to our benefit. From a perspective of being willing to trust that I am, indeed, truly on your side, anyway.

[ Sometimes, trying to correct someone's viewpoint of something is just going to bring more hurt. And there's a lot that she would rather not have to think about right now. ]

You have another surprise? I didn't think there would be that many secrets left. But, being honest can be a good solution to most things.

[ Although she wasn't sure she needed to hear more about her father at that time. ]

In terms of things I've deliberately kept from you, this is the last. Everything else you don't know about me is simply irrelevant to a professional relationship, or unlikely to matter at all.

You're free to ask if you wish to know, of course. I have no more reason to lie to any of you. But I am fairly certain that this is the last detail of significance I haven't shared with everyone.

I don't believe that is much more that I would need to know. Akira-kun will make sure that we know of all the information that we need to know, I'm sure. It is still just concerning that you had a reason to lie to us at all in the first place. I'm sure we can overcome that for one last fight.
