"Right now, it's basically just me," Ann says. "My Goro and I have a sort of tentative"--and deeply uncomfortable--"ally thing going on right now, but I'm not quite sure how that's going to pan out." Her using their encounter in Mementos as an excuse to confront him in real life, claiming she wasn't so blind as to miss it was the Detective Prince behind Loki's mask...the Goro Akechi of her current timeline is warier of her than she think anyone else has ever been. It's kind of funny, in a sad way. "When it comes to the Thieves...well, I'm not one of them, this go around, for a few reasons, and the team itself...it's different, too."

She shrugs. "There's Akira--he's going by Shadow, now, not Joker--and Ryuji; he's still Skull. Yusuke's still a member, but he joined up after someone new to this timeline--Ember. Kasumi Yoshizawa. Futaba isn't a Thief, and...I don't know where Morgana is." Both Makoto and Haru, as far as Ann knows, have yet to get involved in Persona business at all.
