This or these examples of Surprisingly Realistic Outcome seem to violate at least one of these rules, which disqualifies them: No character reactions (characters get angry, don't forgive, don't change their personality instantly, etc.); Too fantastical (depends on the properties of magic, powers, sci-fi tech, monsters, etc.); Not surprising (a character was warned about the outcome, it's used to provide Karma or An Aesop, or it simply follows normal conventions for this genre or medium); Plot happens (the example only describes an event, but not why audiences would expect a different, unrealistic outcome); Not an outcome (a character just explains why something wouldn't work as expected, or something is just an innate aspect of the setting or character that has a logical reason for being present); More of a Deconstruction (the event has major, lasting effects on the plot, make something more realistic, but not completely realistic, or a parody/fanwork applies realistic consequences to the events of a different work); or fits better under a different trope. See the trope's definition for more details. If you believe a removal was a mistake, please bring it up in the cleanup thread.


* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome:
** In the "Dress Code" side story, in which Shujin actually enforces the dress code, Haru gets in trouble for wearing her canonical NonUniformUniform to school. Makoto doesn't even make it out the door before Sae makes her change.
** Even if you stay anonymous, it's possible to leave enough clues for someone to deduce your identity if you're not careful. After finding a hateful letter in Makoto's locker, Makoto does some digging and uncovers the sender's identity.
** After Makoto rekindles her passion for becoming a police officer, she realizes that a single criminal conviction will preclude her chances of achieving that goal, which is why she's determined to clear the Phantom Thieves' name.

''The Royal Couple'' is a ''VideoGame/Persona5'' fanfic by Theralion.

Its starts at the beginning of December 2016, when Haru makes a LoveConfession to Makoto, before retracing their steps to how they first met, as well as where their relationship goes from there.

The fic can be found on [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13881795/1/The-Royal-Couple Fanfiction.net]] and [[https://archiveofourown.org/works/31716919/chapters/78500431 AO3]], and is a work in progress.

!The fic contains examples of:
*AccompliceByInaction: Discussed when Haru recalls Kamoshida. She says that almost everyone at Shujin played at least some role in letting him get away with his misdeeds for as long as he did, so it's hypocritical to single out anyone, like Makoto, for being responsible.
*AdaptationalSexuality: While both Makoto and Haru were attracted to Ren in canon- especially the latter, who is the most upset if Ren turns her down- they're both lesbians here.
*ArcWords: "Princess." It's what Milady calls Haru, as well as Tsukasa's nickname for his marks.
*AscendedExtra:
** Eiko from Makoto's Confidant is promoted to a recurring character, rather than one who makes a handful of appearances in Makoto's Confidant.
** Tsukasa, who's also from Makoto's Confidant, becomes a Mementos target in the fic, much like the anime adaptation.
*CurseCutShort: Makoto slaps Eiko in the face as the latter starts to call her a "greedy bitch" for supposedly trying to steal Tsukasa away.
*FirstNameBasis: After welcoming Haru into the Phantom Thieves, Makoto starts calling Haru by her first name. It takes Haru a few days to reciprocate, but she comes around; her AffectionateNickname of "Mako-chan" came as a result of a typo when trying to type out "Makoto-chan."
*HowWeGotHere: The fic has Haru and Makoto reminisce about the events that took place between when they met in September and their and her confession at the start of December.
*IncompatibleOrientation:
** In addition to all the other reasons Haru has to dislike Sugimura, she's a lesbian and has no interest in him as a man.
** Implied with Makoto and Ren, since while Makoto considers Ren a good guy, she's not attracted to him.
*LoveConfession: Haru confessing to Makoto begins the fic.
*ShipSinking: Ren/Makoto is sunk in Chapter 5. Makoto admits that she doesn't feel anything about being on a date with Ren, despite the fact that he's probably the best possible boyfriend out of all the guys she knows. After he and
*ShoutOut: After learning that her father bought the model he always wanted as a kid(the true form of his Palace's Treasure), but never put it together, Haru wonders if he also has [[Film/CitizenKane a sled with "Rosebud" on it.]]
*SwitchingPOV: The fic alternates between Makoto and Haru's first-person perspective.
*UnspokenPlanGuarantee: Averted when Makoto tells Ren her plan to trick Tsukasa, and the plan goes off flawlessly.
*YuriGenre: The fic's primary pairing is Makoto/Haru
