[His address is the same condo he lived in alone under Shido's paychecks, ironically. Maybe the address itself was too much for Maruki to change, or not something he cared about, or-- maybe it was just part of his plan, to inject Akechi's happiness into the place he had lived in for the last two years that was only somewhere he sometimes went to sleep a few hours. Whether or not Akira had ever been there prior was a toss-up, but the space was the same, same number and floor, just reconfigured with a second bedroom that his mother lived in. He had lived in this condo with her since he was born, and as a result, in this timeline he called it home, something he never would have even thought of calling it prior.]

[Regardless, a slender, pretty-faced woman who looks approximately like a female Akechi with much longer hair opens the door. She startles only briefly, more in surprise of seeing Akira turn up unannounced than anything, and her hands clasp together in front of her as she greets him.] Oh, Akira-kun! It's good to see you. Goro's asleep-- he was researching universities late into last night and had something he went and did this morning, came home and I found him asleep on the couch. Come in-- I'll make you both tea, he'll be happy to see you.
