Ren pretends to get black out drunk in various bars and theres always someone that tries to "Make sure hes ok" before taking him home.
The guys end up in a trash can miles away from their home completely dismembered.
Akechi is the one dude that makes sure he gets home ok, then accidentally stumbles on a leg in the bathroom.
Akira immediately jolts up completely sober. "Uh... whoops?"
"This is insane, im a detective i cant just let this go..."
"...it was self defense?"
"THERES A GODDAMN LEG IN THE BATHROOM"
"Well... ok u got me. I pretend to be blackout drunk & kill the losers that try & take advantage. U want to... take me in?"
"Fuck no."
& from then on Akechi becomes his "backup muscle" in case things go sideways & "guy on the inside" fucking with evidence to keep Akira out of trouble. After every "conquest" Akechi has Akira say how far they got before he killed them while he fucks Akira into the mattress
Body parts start being found further and further from where they were killed, making it harder and harder to pinpoint where it happened.
Its all so scattered and fragmented that they cant even be sure its the same person killing these people

Its so much easier now to get rid of bodies & clean up evidence now that Akira has a partner who knows the wonders of bleach & lye w access to a picktruck :)
Also his dad left him an a massive fortune after dying under mysterious circumstances so hes able to bankroll the clothes
They have a "schedule"
Mon-fri Akira goes to work at his barista job from morning to night while Akechi works with the police
Sat they have a "date night" over at Ryuji & Yusuke's place, where they always have a cup with fresh dna on it, just in case.
Sun is the day of rest
If u dont realize date night is the night Akira goes & gets his murder fix lmao
I'm very unsure about a lot of the Trapped!Au, but there is one scene thats crystal clear in my mind.
A god offers Akechi a chance to go back to the real world, the only price is half his blood. What he doesnt realize, is half his blood had been beside him nearly the whole time.
Of course, when the god comes to collect his blood, Joker & Alpha r right there to jear the details. Joker's panicked, because he knows how tricksters work, immediately offers himself in place of their daughter.
"What kind of god would give up such a deal? Just leave her alone."
Both Akechi & Maya r confused. "Joker... Papa what the fuck are you talking about? Why would he take me?"
Akechi looks to Maya. "Papa?"
Joker ignores the question as tendrils begin to swirl around him. "Ur the leader now Maya. You can beat this I believe in you-"
And here's her foreign friend Nick that followed her into Mementos and became the Navigator of the group.
His codename is Neo. (Placeholder until i find a better name lmao) his Persona is Anasi! Its one of those recon vans disguised as a Spider Exterminator!
