“You’re lying.” The door begins to close. Chie sticks her foot in the gap before Nanako can shut. Nanako tries to slam it, but Chie steps in further.
“I’m not lying,” Chie says. She’s still holding her hand out. “Not if you come with me.”

(What is a cannibal, Nanako asked her big brother a few weeks ago.
Well, now she knows.)
*
Chie feels like a total creep. Nanako walks just ahead of both Chie and Yukiko, so at least Nanako thinks both of them are terrible people. Chie feels like throwing up again. Yukiko doesn’t look bothered, but this whole thing is Yukiko’s idea to begin with.
And that’s the thing. It was Yukiko’s idea. Not Yosuke’s, which-it would’ve been awful, but not so surprising. Yosuke’s been-changed by all of this, and Souji-maybe, maybe not. And as for Yukiko-
Chie’s just bullied a little girl into a TV, so if Yukiko’s changed, then at least Chie has changed with her.
Oh, geeze, sorry for vanishing like that without a word.
Um, I hate to invoke the writer's block excuse, because that's not what happened. I just got stuck and went on and wrote other stories to get unblocked and. ... forgot about this one.
... I'll. I'll update soon. Death and gloom for everyone!

give up. (4/bite the bullet remix) There are police cars pulled into the Junes parking lot in a furtive spot, and people with guns inside. There aren’t any shoppers inside. Chie holds onto Nanako’s hand, because Nanako won’t take Yukiko’s. They’re walking into a trap, but to go into a TV they’ve never been through, especially without Rise to guide them

“Right,” Yukiko says, grabbing onto Nanako. Chie wants to say something else-maybe something like, ‘I’ll be there soon,’ but then Adachi grab her chest with his hands and twists. He’s mostly holding onto her uniform, but the pain still jolts her like a shock. She bashes her head against his nose, and like an idiot, hits him with her forehead. Even when he drops to the ground, she’s tempted to fall over and grab her head, too. She knees him in the face, and then hits him again-his head bends into her bones, and she pretends to not feel it

“Are you all right?” Yosuke says, which is a dumb, dumb thing to say when Yukiko’s staring at a Chie’s dead body like it’s a squashed bug or dried fish. She’s sitting in blood, her legs folded beneath her

THIS is my current reason for keeping up with the meme. I love how in character they are even though they've changed from bringing murders to justice, to murders. I'm really curious about how this all started. What happened to Saki? Did Yosuke...? And I can't help but wonder about how this will end, and naoto's role in it. Will she choose to join the IT when she realizes the world will no longer accept her as a boy or as a girl? Or will she fight to the bitter end both the IT and her own growing hunger? By eliminating all the Asuras... including herself?
And Darn if “Make sure you don’t put her near Teddie,” doesn't put shivers down my anticipating spine.

Different anon here - I've only just found this fic, and ahhh, it's amazing. Dark and compelling and so effective despite being AU. Really looking forward to reading more of it.

They’re keeping Shirogane in the dungeon, tied up to Yukiko’s throne. The room’s roughed up. This is where they kept Teddie, before they gave up and left him in the strange bedroom with the scarf. There are red marks on Shirogane’s wrist. He’s not thrashing around anymore, but when Yosuke shows up with Nanako, he says, “I see that you have moved onto kidnapping children

Her neck, soft and human, ripples and widens in his hand. He just has enough sense to release her and rush out of her range. A storm of flame swirls around Yukiko. She looks different, somehow, less pink and more golden. Maybe that’s the difference, between eating a normal person and eating someone with a demon in them. Yosuke wonders what would happen if he took a bite of Chie, but he doesn’t want it anymore. Instead, he approaches Yukiko, hands out. Fire swirls around her, red and hot.
“Hey,” he says. “Hey.”
“No, no,” she says as he gets near. “No, she’s mine, she’s mine “I know, I know,” he says. Her shoulders crumple; she lets herself fall into him. There’s blood soaking into his shirt, but the fire is dying
