*voicetesting!

✧ right now my p5 brainrot is real and intense, so mostly looking for castmates (either from vanilla/royal or previous Persona games) or people that'd be down for crosscanon! Akira is the one i have the most experience with and is the easiest to play, but i'd love to voicetest my girls more too! (i also have journals for Ann, Ryuji, and Makoto, but these are weaker voices that didn't stick as well so i might not be able to promise threads with them)
✧ for cross-Personas i don't have any big wishes at the moment, except for the other protags for Akira since that's always fun... although i'd have to dance around any spoilers since besides Royal, i haven't played anything but p1 and the last time i looked at it was probably almost 20 years ago. we can also run with some kind of Q2-verse which i'm mildly familiar with or some kind of Persona-ish jamjar if it makes things easier logistically. for crosscanon, i'd extra love to do something with gbf characters since that's the Persona collab i'm familiar with, especially Djeeta/Gran but any of the crew is fine! otherwise all crosscanon is super welcome, even if i'm not familiar with it
✧ always excited for shipping, but i'd love to do some gen too; whatever your preference is! the only one with shipping prefs right now is Akira (he's got them in his journal), but generally speaking i'm open to most things and down to try new stuff as long as it's not one of my few no's - aside from what's listed in my prefs, generally no incest and keeping things age appropriate for my kid characters (in this case Satoko, although I do have a journal for her timeskip in gousotsu/meguri). for my p5s, talk to me first about shipping if your character is an adult (for my non-p5 characters though, significant age gaps are almost always fine!).
✧ i'm open to anything not listed and willing to try any not listed, but some special shipping shoutouts for things i've really been wanting to play: for Akira, akeshu always but i've been really itching to play some shumako and shuharu too; for Aerith, clerith or aerti (or best of all, as an ot3 if anyone plays both or has another person that would be interested); and for Shion, keishii
✧ i'm also super down for smut as well; Akira (again) is the only one with a kinklist right now, but for the most part those kinks apply with my other characters too! (the biggest differences i think would be age gap being okay with my non-p5 charas, most of my girls i tend to prefer playing as dominant, and Futaba i probably want to wait with smut if and until she has some continuous memes/psls going on to build up the relationship)
✧ some verse ideas (with or without smut): fake dating/relationship, arranged marriage (kind of in that same vein), roommates, soulmates, kiznaiver au or another kind of pain/memory/thought/dream sharing, twewy au, hunger games au, canon divergence, childhood friends... there's plenty more too, honestly, this is just off the top of my head! i'm open to a lot of stuff so if you have other things you want feel free to toss it at me, too one day i will have my updated psl wishlist ready in time for empd

❖ i've been behind on tags the past few months after multiple tech issues set me back in both my games and memes/psls, so i'm sorry in advance for any slowness!
❖ timezone is pacific standard time/utc-8, but i usually run weird hours so you might get tags from me at unexpected times.
❖ even without tech emergencies my pace in general is a little slow so feel free to nudge me if it's been a while! I'm also down to backtag stuff for ages, so in the reverse feel free to pick something back up with me even if it's been a long time
❖ replies here, Yamadori, and pms to Akira's journal are all cool for getting in touch with me!
