Summary
He’s not forced onto the path of salvation, he isn’t teared limb from limb into an ideal he doesn’t believe in—he takes those first few defining steps toward his rehabilitation, along with Maruki.
As he looks up at Maruki, at the doctor, at his therapist, at his friend, Ren doesn’t understand why, even after all that comforting, he still feels wrong.
But Maruki’s hand bringing him away from his teammates is warm, and his heart feels like a block of ice needing to be thawed open, so it’s okay.
He’s going to be okay.
Maruki will make him warm again.
or: what if instead of sumire being captured in maruki’s palace, ren was? (very light maruki x joker due to brainwashing)

Summary
It is true that since the actualization of Dr. Maruki's reality, nothing is quite the same. The sun seems to shine brighter each day. The economy is bustling. One seems to be able to find luck at every corner. Akira knew everything would change once he struck the deal with Maruki that night at Leblanc, which leaves the question why he didn't; while all of the former Phantom Thieves have seemingly adapted to their new lives, Akira feels as if he has been left behind.
Seeking out Dr. Maruki in the world which he created is a decision he's not sure he won't regret. It appears, however, that he is not the only one who needs companionship.
