"Shit, not again!" Akira exclaims while he notices his social media accounts were all hacked by a hacker. Akira then looks as he sees texts sent to Ann, Makoto, Ryuji, Hifumi, Shinya, and Haru.

"Why'd Haru get a text?" Akira then notices that Haru got a hacked text from him. "Didn't Haru mention during that time we all went dancing and say that she was terrible with computers?" He then remembers when Haru told both him and Makoto that she barely knows how to use a computer. "No wait, I don't remember Haru mentioning anything about being bad with computers, Heck, I barely had time to take Futaba out on a date, after Okumura's Palace." Seemed like Akira mistakenly remembered something that didn't happen, he was probably still exhausted after he and the other Phantom Thieves was hacking and slashing Shadows to get stronger, Haru on the other hand: felt a slight excitement over killing Shadows that slightly creeped out Ann, Ryuji, and Yusuke.

"Regardless, I'd better call 'Medjed' to help me out of this rabbit hole." So Akira heads to Sojiro's home, while also mentioning to Sojiro that he needed to see Futaba since she wanted him to help her with something. Luckily Sojiro's house is literally a walk away from Leblanc, it should be a breeze for Akira to get there. Then Akira heads to Futaba's room while first knocking on the door and sending her a text also, and Futaba is at her computer desk, as usual, watching the Phoenix Rangers anime on one monitor, while on the other: she's playing a game.

"Futaba!" Akira yells out to Futaba while she's watching her anime. Then Futaba hears Akira and turns around in her computer chair and sees Akira and then smiles at him. "What's cracking, boss?" She then said to Akira as he started to pull out his phone to show his social media stuff had been hacked. Futaba looks at the phone and then notices the root of the problem.

"You clicked on a suspicious link didn't you?" Futaba then looks at Akira with a look of disappointment, but not in the same vein as Makoto when she tries (and fails) to get Ryuji and Ann to study for their classes. "Well it was late and I was trying to get some sleep and then out of the blue: Ryuji sends this text saying something about free pachinko bonuses." Akira then realizes he screwed up after clicking on a link Ryuji sent him since he knows most things Ryuji sends to him are either memes or "free stuff".

"Meh, I can't be mad at you, you were probably tired after fighting shadows in Mementos." Luckily Futaba isn't upset at Akira for opening a suspicious link since she did notice Akira tiring himself out while battling yesterday. ("Yeah I forgot to ask Kawakami for a massage after the trip to Mementos.") Akira thought to himself while remembering he didn't call Kawakami for her "services".

"Anyway, what do you want me to do about this?" Futaba then asks the shaggy-haired Akira if she can help him fix this problem of his. "Fix my social media accounts and secure them for me, do you think you can do that?" After that was said: Futaba adjusted her glasses and they started to shine as if she were some kind of cliched genius, well she is a genius after all.

"Mwehehehe!"

"Have you forgotten that I was and still am the almighty Medjed, Akira-kun?"

Like it was some kind of Chunibyo type of anime, Futaba then laughs while also reminding Akira that she was Medjed, the same Medjed who hacked multiple businesses for fun luckily without mentioning some kind of 'Dark Flame Master' or 'Demon Lord'. "I promise I'll give you another of those 'Key Items' you want for your list of things to do." Akira then promises Navi something in return for Futaba fixing his issues. Before the two started dating each other: Akira helped Futaba gather these 'Key Items' to help her get more comfortable around people and even helped her fix an old friendship Futaba had with one of her old friends.

"Oh! What kind of 'Key Item' we're talking about here, Akira?" Suddenly after hearing 'Key Item', Futaba then curiously tries to pry the answers from her 'Leader' to figure out what it is. Since she does have a bit of a playful side to her, without her computers, memes, and games that she only shows to her 'Leader'.

"Can't tell you that information, my love."

After hearing "my love": Futaba's cheeks slowly turn beet red as she starts to blush since the two thieves/coffee and curry enthusiasts recently started dating after meeting Haru about 3 weeks ago. "Ok then, Mr. Gentleman Thief, I'll be patient for now." "Just hand me your phone so I can work on the basics and give this thing some 'Taba Upgrades' and fix your hacked accounts, It'll be about two or three hours." Akira then hands Futaba his phone and gives her his trust.

"I'll hold you to that promise, Ms. Mwehehe." Then after Akira says this: He kisses Futaba on the lips, this surprises Futaba a little bit, but she reciprocates his kiss with another kiss of her own. ("His lips do taste like coffee, Mwehehe, a good time for a Kurusu Buff with a kiss like that.") Futaba while still kissing Akira, then notices that his lips do in fact taste like coffee. Afterward, Akira then leaves Futaba to do what she does best.

While Akira has time to kill until Futaba is finished fixing his account issues, he decides to head to Akihabara to the game store in hopes of getting Futaba a game or something she'd love. Akira has the money to afford almost anything due to working at 'Ore no Beko': the beef bowl shop at Central Street in Shibuya with an extra spice of Mementos money grinding. While out and about: Akira eventually runs into a particular character in Akihabara: Makoto Niijima.

"Makoto, what are you doing here?" Akira questions Makoto as he wonders why she's in Akihabara. Makoto takes her time and tries to come up with an explanation. "Akira-kun? I didn't expect to see you here." She later realizes what's going on. Makoto knows that Akira usually heads to Akihabara to buy games, and other things to pass time after school.

"Well I was here to look for some Buchimaru-kun merchandise, Shibuya didn't have any, so I decided to check Akihabara to possibly see if they have any here." Makoto then tells Akira about her trying to find Buchimaru-kun merchandise since her former friend Eiko mentioned she got some from Akihabara, it was two months since Makoto and Eiko were on speaking terms since she slapped her for being with an older man in Shinjuku.

"Yeah, Eiko told you about that, right?" "I'm trying to find some stuff for Futaba that she'd love to have." Akira tells Makoto about him finding something for Futaba. "Oh wait, Akira: did you get a weird text last night about free pachinko or something along those lines?" After saying this, Akira then tries to give Makoto the full context of the odd text: "So my phone got hacked after unknowingly clicking on a free pachinko link that Ryuji had sent late last night, and I went to go see if Futaba could help me fix my phone."

"I understand, I just didn't know about the text since it was immediately sent into my spam folder since sis told me not to reply to odd and suspicious links, 'to make sure I was safe.' " Makoto mentions that Sae warned her of suspicious links to things that seemed more than met the eye.

Later the two thieves chat some more while Makoto attempts to help Akira find something for Futaba to pass the time. They first head to 'Akky', a store that sells tons of electronics like cameras, computers, software, and some refurbished goods. Akira sees a high-quality computer monitor that Futaba would like, but it is pretty pricey, Makoto then hands Akira a refurbished General Studies textbook for Futaba to use, after seeing this: Akira then sees a small chibi Futaba popped in his head and starts 'Mweheheing'.

He shakes away the mini Taba in his head as he and Makoto now head to the 'Gamers' store which has a wide variety of stuff like movies, games, character merchandise among the stuff he sees there. While in the meantime, Makoto finally finds a Buchimaru-kun product, a hooded jacket. Seeing this jacket: Akira can't stop but laugh internally due to how ridiculous the jacket looked while visualizing Makoto wearing that same jacket outside of Shujin, since Makoto does get a bit sensitive whenever someone makes fun of her liking Buchimaru-kun, just ask Ryuji after he laughed at her two months ago and she later chewed him out in Mementos. Akira didn't see anything he thought Futaba would like here, even the Phoenix Rangers movie set;

("What if Futaba pirated the whole series without being bothered to pay any subscription fees?") Akira then thought to himself while he and Makoto head to the 'Radio Kaikan' building, an iconic area in Akihabara that you have to go to even if you don't like anime or games, it has anything an orange-haired gamer girl would love to have in her room.

("If Futaba is Medjed and has superior hacking skills, then would she even bother with subscription fees and just watch the raw episodes for free? She doesn't seem like the girl who'd be interested in channel surfing every day.") Akira continues his thoughts from when he left Gamers a few minutes ago. To Makoto: it seemed like Akira was muttering about something, but she couldn't care less as she looked at the Buchimaru-kun jacket she bought for herself while Akira wasn't noticing.

"Is something on your mind, Akira?" Makoto then breaks the unintended silence between the two. "What is it?" He replied while also thinking he felt his phone vibrate as if someone is calling him currently, as he would usually feel since he remembered he left his phone with Futaba earlier in the day. "Oh, my apologies Makoto, I was too busy thinking about what to give Futaba as a gift."

"I hope she'd love the General Studies textbook I bought for her, I bet she'll be a pretty good student!" Makoto then smiles reassuringly regarding Futaba's prospects when she feels confident enough to start school at Shujin. ("Makoto, I think you and I are on two differing wavelengths, you are definitely missing the point.") Akira then thinks about how Makoto thinks they are buying study materials for Futaba, but Akira is trying to buy something for his orange-haired sweetheart. "Yeah.. let us keep looking for stuff for Futaba."

Eventually, Akira and Makoto get all the things they wanted to buy at Akihabara, and so they head their separate ways. While this is happening: Futaba is still in her room as she's waiting for Akira to come back from Akihabara. She had already fixed the issues with his phone, it took her about an hour to complete, and then his phone rings, it's Ann calling, so Futaba picks up the phone.

"Mwehehehe! This is Medjed, I have taken over this phone!" Futaba then tries to play a prank on Ann thinking Akira's phone was hacked legitimately, but Ann knew it was a joke. "Oh hey Futaba, is Akira around? I wanted to see if he could help me study for my classes." Ann was only wondering if Akira was around without knowing the context as to why Futaba had his phone, but Futaba eventually explain everything to Ann.

~Five Minutes Later~

"I see… So Ryuji unintentionally sent a link that Akira opened and his phone got hacked afterward?" Ann then relays the information that she received from Futaba. "Yep, that's the gist of it, Ann." "I got it all taken care of now, all I have to do now is wait on Akira to come back and get his phone, he said he went off to Akihabara about two or three hours ago." Futaba then continues her techy talk with Ann, while mentioning that Akira went to Akihabara.

"Ok!" "I'll shoot him a text after he gets his phone back, I'll talk to you later Futaba-chan!" Ann then hangs up the phone, leaving Futaba to go back to her usual tasks in her room, like looking up memes to send to Akira, organizing her 'Catherine' figures since she recently got her hands on a 'Rin' figure and wanted to make a pseudo harem scene with the figures she already owned, and hugging her Jack Frost plushie that Akira won for her on one of their hangouts at the Shibuya Arcade. Then Akira returns to Futaba's room after being in Akihabara holding a bag full of stuff that "he bought".

"I'm back Futaba." Akira bellowed out as he carried a bag of stuff he purchased at Akihabara while hoping he wasn't disturbing her work. "Just in time, Gentleman Thief, I have created 'A Weapon to Surpass Mementos!' Mwehehehe!" Futaba makes a reference to a 'pretty good' Solid game series. "Huh?" But that reference flew over Akira Kurusu's head.

"I fixed your phone, gave it some upgrades, and gave it a needed assistant; her name is Burroughs, you can set it up later at your place." She then makes another reference to a pretty devilish game hoping to suddenly give Akira the Choice of Law, Neutrality, and Chaos. "Burroughs?" Like the Solid reference before, it flew over his head. "Oh, Ann called you also, asking if you wanted to help her study sometime." She then mentions that Ann called Akira's phone, asking if he wanted to help her study. "Yeah, I'll try calling her later. Can you pass me my phone, 'Taba?"

Akira then asks for his phone, since he really needed his phone. "Sure thing. Here, and don't forget my little 'Taba upgrades!" Futaba obliges and gives her boyfriend his phone as he takes a look at the new upgrades she gave him. ("Hmm…She wasn't kidding with her upgrades, seems like looking at my phone unlocks it, and with a touch of my thumb or finger: I can have all access to my files and my other accounts.") Akira notices his phone can be activated by it scanning his face and using fingerprint ID to keep his accounts safe.

He also notices he has three missed texts from Ryuji (apologizing about the pachinko links), Haru (wondering what pachinko was and wondering if he wanted to help her grow vegetables), and Hifumi (asking about shogi, and she maybe didn't notice the spam link) respectively. "That's right, Futaba: I got something from you at Akihabara, wanna take a guess at what it is?" Akira then tells his love about what he bought her at Akihabara, while after hearing this: she started to guess what exactly he bought her.

"Hmmm, did you get a new game for me to play, leader?" Futaba then guesses that Akira bought her a new game to play. "No Taba, wanna have another guess?" He then starts to play a little game with Futaba as she tries to guess what he got her from Akihabara. "Yes!" Futaba with a smile on her face then asks for another chance to make a guess.

"This time, I'll give you a little hint, Taba. It's something you already had earlier today while also tasting something else in it." Akira makes a reference to something that happened earlier in the day that suddenly got Futaba's attention. "Is it another Kurusu Buff by my amazing Boyfriend?" As soon as Futaba figures it out, Akira starts to hug and caress her as she 'correctly' guesses what he got for her. "You got it right, Taba!" Akira after saying this starts to lightly pat Futaba on her head, with Futaba blushing a little bit as she loves it when he pats her on the head as he hugs her.

"I love you Futaba." Akira tells Futaba that he loves her, and still not being used to hearing him say that, Futaba blushes a bright red, hugs her boyfriend tighter, and then starts to kiss Akira. After the two kissed for a bit, Futaba breaks off the kiss just so she can say, "I love you too, Akira Kurusu." After saying this to her 'Key Item': the two continue to kiss each other some more.

In Futaba's eyes, she sees the boy that helped her be more confident in herself and brings her back from the depths of her depression after he stole her heart back in her Pyramid Palace. Who knows where she would be without Akira here to help her, but Futaba didn't have to worry about that anymore as her suffering and pain were all in the past, as she felt safe and comfortable around the arms of the one guy who really cares about her besides her adoptive father, Sojiro Sakura.

~Twenty Minutes Later~

After kissing each other and cuddling for a bit and looking at memes on Futaba's phone: Akira then remembers he has to head to Ore no Beko. "Futaba, i gotta head to work alright, check beside your door for the 'actual gift' i bought for you." Before Akira leaves for work: Futaba holds on to his hand, and with a blush on her face she wants to ask her boyfriend one more thing before he leaves:

"Can..you say that phrase you said before?" "I love it when you say that, Akira."

She then asks Akira if he could tell her that he loved her once again since she's still getting used to being Akira's girlfriend.

"I love you Futaba Sakura."

With a warm smile on his face: Akira tells Futaba that he loved her once again, and after hearing this: Futaba suddenly starts to blush even brighter and like a computer that she's great at using: starts to mentally 'blue screen'. ("Damn it, why is my boyfriend so sweet and nice?!") She then thinks to herself that well, maybe she was lucky Akira was her boyfriend. After she calms down a bit: she hugs Akira goodbye as he heads to work, leaving the orange-haired girl alone in her room once again, but before she heads back to her desk, she picks up the bag Akira left by her door and opens the bag to reveal that he bought her the newest 'Forearm Magasuchi Revelations 5' game, and she is happy to receive the game from Akira. "Sweet! Forearm Magasuchi Revelations 5, I can't wait to play this!" Futaba is ecstatic over receiving the game she wanted to play since its release, then she ponders to herself…

"I wonder if this game has co-op?"

~The End~
