Keialice

Keialice is the slash ship between Keiji Shinogi and Alice Yabusame from the Your Turn To Die fandom.

Canon
When Keiji first meets Alice, who is unconscious after falling out of the locker in the Red Room, he is immediately wary on how they haven't met him until now, and advocates for tying him up for the time being. When Alice wakes, Keiji tells him they don't have time to spend on him, but he'll allow some questioning, and whether or not to let Alice free. Alice simply tells Keiji not to act superior. Keiji jokingly pretends he's scared and then passes the interrogation duty off to Sara. Following the events of the first Main Game, Alice talks to Keiji alone. Since Keiji is a police officer, Alice thinks Keiji may know something about his murder case, and discloses that the person who he killed was Sou Hiyori.

During the Trust-Barter Sub-Game on the third floor, Alice and Keiji are both available as partners for the Arm-Wrestling and Hide and Seek attractions. They also both end up being higher-placed in the token standings for the Final Attraction. Alice places 3rd and Keiji places 5th, meaning they're both safe inside the green cube.

On the morning of the second day, Sara walks in on Keiji and Alice conversing in the Monitor room. She hears Alice say something abut "buying the personal info is the only way" before asking the two what they're chatting about. Alice is startled to see her there. Sara thinks to herself that she heard them talking about something completely unrelated to the Monitor room incident that occurred the night before. She pesters them again and Alice tells Sara to go away, seemingly flustered when she asks if he's hiding anything. She thinks to herself that it's very suspicious. On the morning of the third day, Sara once again catches a snippet of their conversation, and Sara thinks that they're holding a rather shady tactics meeting.

After the group attempts to follow an escape route only to come to a dead-end, Keiji begins to clear the rubble, in an attempt to uncover the exit it's covering. Alice remarks that he's a fool to try it without heavy machinery, but starts helping him anyway.

On the third floor, at the beginning of Keiji's confrontation with Midori, Alice is the first to provide encouragement, telling him not to be hasty, and to make use of their greater numbers. Alice urges for Keiji to go ahead and shoot Midori with his gun, and Keiji manages to do so, but the bullet is diverted by Hinako. Alice again encourages Keiji to fire, but Keiji can't bring himself to. Midori taunts him, saying he already shot once and "conquered his trauma", so he should be able to do it again like he did back then. Alice is appalled at how Midori can just talk about Keiji's trauma like that. If Keiji is staggered, Alice urges him to stand back up to get at Midori.

Fanon
Keialice is a somewhat popular ship within the Your Turn To Die fandom, having 49 works on AO3 and a good amount of fanart on Tumblr and Twitter. Their dynamic is also a popular one that helps to fuel the ship: police and criminal. Some fans interpret Alice as having a crush on Keiji, principally for opening up to him first about killing Sou Hiyori. Later, when Sara and the others go talk to Alice, he specifically says to Keiji he wants to talk with him alone, fueling the theory. Even with some attention from the fandom, a lot of people see the ship as underrated and overshadowed by other popular ships. The ship's main rivals are both with Shin Tsukimi, them being Keishin and Alishin. Some fans prefer to ship all three of them together in a polyship, resulting in Keishinalice.
