Well, this certainly took long enough. (But give me some time in an airport, apparently, and it's fanfic time like whoa.)

At some point, I'll put together a timeline for this 'verse, because these do jump around a bit between past and present. Round One here.

Indulge me, dear flist. (My willpower held out almost 24 hours between thinking up this meme and saying I had no time for it and the predictable dissolution of said willpower.)

I want an excuse to d(r)abble in the new playground that's destroying my life. So, if anyone wants in on it:

Your Mission: Give me a character from either Persona 3* or FFXII and lyrics or a phrase from The Clash as a prompt. I'd love it if you also listed the track name, too, just in case there's a song I haven't memorized (and I am sure that there is).

Your reward: 100 words** of backstory/set-up/vignette that will help me settle who's doing what where. While I can't guarantee everyone in both verses will be a major player in the backbone of the plot, I am very happily willing to put anyone into this universe in this exercise.

*I totally suck. I'm not to Ryoji yet, so he's kind of out of the running for now. (Think September-ish, perhaps?)

**No, seriously, 100 words. I can do this. Really.

Finally finished this. Finished something.

It was originally just a one-off birthed of a little comment thread from [info]laylah's journal, whereupon it was decided that it would be pretty damn cool to see Akihiko as a bare-knuckle boxer, a la Mickey from Snatch. And then there was discussion of tattoos, and finally they ended up in a caravan tucked into some little pocket of Edinburgh.

Anyway.

Notes: Canon, predictably, is very loose here. Also: Edinburgh, not London. Despite 'verse titling.
Notes Additional: Many thanks to [info]laylah, for encouraging.
