Sakamoto Mother's Day

To help find a lost necklace, Futaba straps Morgana to a flying drone so he can have a bird's eye view. "Monacoptor" quickly goes mad with power at being able to fly, delighting Futaba.

The New Adventures of Buchimaru-Kun

The 180 Makoto's personality takes when she finds out her childhood mascot character is getting a new cartoon series. Special mention goes to the chatroom she joins and her interactions with a surprise cameo.

Baby Sakamoto

Ann's eagerness to see Ryuji's baby, accompanied by a strange obsession with counting all of Yoshiho's fingers and toes. Her excitement borders on mania and has Makoto wishing she had her taser with her. When everyone can finally see the baby, Ann moves so quickly over to them she bowls over Futaba in a real life Flash Step.

Okumura Power Lifting

Haru struggles to lift her axe at first, leading to the premise of "Okumura Power Lifting". How does she eventually get stronger? By using Ren's body as a weight to carry during squats, while his mind is in the Velvet Room.
The ending notes.
vivvav: This story is 100% in canon with all my other stories even if it contradicts anything I've ever written or I attempt to claim it isn't canon later. Let that be known right now.

Lost and Found

Yusuke's eyesight has degraded in one eye, but rather than wear glasses with one corrective lense, he decides to wear a monocle. What does he plan to do if the other eye follows? Just buy another monocle. No need to have wasted money on that first monocle after all.

Untenable

The biggest reason Morgana is moving in with Haru is because Ren pointed out that if Morgana were living with Ren and Makoto, they could never have sex with him around.

Alleycat

Morgana's Imagine Spot in "Alleycat" is just hilariously self-serving to him from his one-dimensional opinion of Ryuji to how he imagines everyone's lives revolving around him.

For Want of a Crepe

Ann's Sweet Tooth is treated like a legitimate drug addiction when Ren buying her new equipment leaves Ann unable to afford a crepe. Things escalate until Ren and Ryuji are forced to stage an intervention for her that ends with Ann being tied to a chair with her new whip in the Yongen-Jaya laundromat. Ann proceeds to smash out of the chair and attack them.
Ryuji: I said run, dude! SHE’S GOT CRACK FIEND STRENGTH! RUN!
- The fic ends with Iwai noting the nasty shiner Ren's sporting as he sells the whip back to him, and the former Yakuza comments that whoever did it "must’ve been one big, mean, son of a bitch." Ren demands he shut up and fork over the money while a crazed Ann glowers at him through the shop's window.
- Like "Okumura Power Lifting", vivvav's ending notes state this fic is canon with all his other stories.

Rock Out

Ryuji starts the fic asleep out of boredom. His company decides to have a little fun. Ren gets a picture from Hifumi showing she's stuffed shoji pieces into Ryuji's mouth to give him wooden fangs.

Agent Hanamura

The Investigation Team is celebrating the oldest members (Yu, Yosuke, Yukiko, and Chie) graduating college. Marie, local weather goddess, recites a poem while absolutely plastered and falls unconscious in the middle of a line about falling down.
In the Shadow Operatives' hierarchy, whoever joined earliest is the field leader by default. This means that Koromaru ranks higher than Yosuke and Labrys. That's right, those two spent an entire mission taking orders from the dog.

The Shadows Linger

Futaba's Geeky Turn-On over Aigis and Labrys reaches its peak when she learns that Labrys is romantically involved with Yosuke. Predictably, her next question is about their sex life.
When Yosuke and Labrys revealed how they found Futaba (an alarm on their computer told them about Futaba and her being a cracker working for the Japanese government and the daughter of a woman who was researching Shadows), the Shadow Ops decided to hack into Futaba's laptop and deciding to do something when it turned out Futaba was on the verge of uncovering Aigis's existence. Futaba says that the Shadow Ops just couldn't hack into her laptop without setting off like 100 alarms...only for Labrys to reveal that no security system can outsmart her as she's a computer that can think and Futaba's were fairly tricky but Futaba's out of her league. Futaba then droops her head and mutters something and when Yosuke presses Labrys, it turns out Futaba was muttering about Labrys being "so cool".

Tokyo Reunions

Hifumi expresses her doubts that she'd find Ryuji cool, and that he seems a beastly individual based upon Ren's comments. The Irony of their upcoming friendship/eventual relationship, and Lampshade Hanging on how wildly different they seem, is unbelievably strong.

Goro Akechi Falls Down The Stairs

The entire premise, which consists of Haru "accidentally" shoving Akechi down a flight of stairs and the Thieves delighting at the display while outwardly acting horrified.

The Top 5 Times Ryuji Sakamoto Fell Into a Lake

The title says it all. Five short stories about the various shenanigans in the Phantom Thieves' lives that all end with Ryuji being knocked into a large body of water. It goes from Yusuke knocking him off a ferry ride near Mt. Fuji, to Ren and Ann tossing him into a fishing pond so they can quickly scarf down the junk food their significant others don't want them eating.

Dudes

Mostly involving the Phantom Thieves hanging out and Ryuji saying "Dude" a lot and Makoto having no clue what's going on. The author's note makes it even better:
"Had this idea at 2 AM when everything seems funnier, wound up writing my dumbest fic of all time.
No regrets."
