LORE TIME FINALLY!!

BASIC XAN(TERU)VID MM AU LORE

Morse code is for ??? Lore and spoilers for up to the end of chapter two of DRDT (ps my grammar sucks)

Wanna ask about it? Either ask me on here or on the @ask-xanvid-and-whace-mm-aus blog!

Xander ended up finding out about XF-Ture and possibly got a little bit focused/obsessed on it (XF-Ture has something to do with either of the Spurlings- at least in the AU)

??? and Xander ended up getting manipulated into joining XF-Ture and Xander convinced David to sign a contract to join XF

XF-Ture reveals most of East Class 27 having caused deaths/committed murder before. XF then ends up manipulating Xander, David, and ??? (especially Xander with his impulsive thinking and strong morals) into causing the killing game to get rid of them. Xander and David also had somewhat convinced Teruko to work with XF, but for whatever reason had to get her memories erased.

??? deals with tech and isn't in the killing game building until MonoTV gets broken. ??? then sneaks in and stays in whatever private area there is in the mastermind area.

David, Xander, and ??? are making their classmates suffer due to XF-Ture’s manipulation and stuff, maybe with XF even erasing the three’s good memories of their other classmates (well, other than Teruko.) Also Xander and David like Teruko too but for whatever reason, her memories were still wiped, possibly because XF couldn’t fully manipulate her into wanting to be a mastermind as well or something due to her luck.

XF possibly pushed Xander to make the robo him ‘try to kill’ Teruko in order to try and get her back, but since Min stumbled across the 'murder', Xander (and David, he wasn’t planning on being in the laundry room for two hours) couldn’t replace Teruko with a fake and bring her to their hidden mastermind areas-

Xander is absolutely heartbroken due to how Teruko changes her feelings towards him and how much she’s in pain. He orders MonoTV to follow Teruko around a lot- (David also sneaks around and listens in-)

The reason for David’s reveal is because he found out Ace killed Arei (and possibly due to him mourning Arei, since he did end up unintentionally becoming somewhat friends with her.) He realized that both of the more… ‘antagonistic’ people were dead/going to die as well as that the trial with Ace was likely going to be quick unless he did something, he decided to spice things up.

He was originally going to go with something like his secret was badly phrased to make the others distrust or possibly want to kill him, but he changed his mind upon finding out who was dead and who killed her.

Xander gets upset since David is now a target… and in chapter 3, him and David decide to attempt to make the motive to try and target people to try and kill David and Teruko, so they can fake the deaths and not have to worry about him or Teruko getting hurt anymore.

Unfortunatelyyyyyy…. Just like in the other two chapters, it doesn’t work and Teruko and David are still in the killing game. They actually end up surviving until the end.

Xander is the first one to get figured out, then David, and then Teruko?? Oh boy-!

Different endings:

Happy ending: Xander and David get help as well as they use XF’s tech to somehow bring everyone back to life- (They slowly get better and people possibly end up trusting them again…? Maybe? I don’t know-)

Possibly more canon ending: Teruko gets convinced to join them and they end up getting rid of everyone else in the killing game and end up living ‘happily ever after’ being the kings (and queen(s)) of the new tragedy.

Death order btw:

'Xander' killed by Min

Arei killed by Ace

Eden and Nico killed by Arturo

J killed by Levi

Whit killed by Hu

:D

Edit: Whit getting killed by Hu is now possibly going to be ch 4 instead of 5 and J getting killed by Levi is going to possibly be ch 5

Happy 5th Anniversary DRDT!!!!!!! and happy birthday Mai too :D

[karmicpunishment]

i know tachihara was likely the most recent recruit for the hunting dogs but it'd be super funny if the vault robbery happened when he was even younger and he was like. the third recruited. like yeah welcome to the team, meet your senior employees: the hero of the world, this women who likes to be in the form of a 12 year old and this actual 12 year old.

[acethehorseishere]

sending this to remind myself to draw mm!ace later

Do remember to draw mm!Ace

Gonna use this ask to post today's obligatory offering. Didn't have much time so you get fugly doodles instead

Whit has been fighting the urge to jump Ace the moment it was revealed that he dismembered Charles (he doesn't care about the Mastermind part)

Too bad they got it wrong, he didn't get to punch him before his execution

Tfw you're trying to flirt but he's too busy watching the rest of your classmates die (also just found out he apparently killed someone)

[mimikip4744]

episode 16 was wild

Like, that was the best episode this far

but also WHAT THE FUCK!!!

[yourlocalderp]

@acethehorseishere your fucking mm! ace is rotting my brain im gonna call you a slur

he's such a whore he should've STAYED DEAD!!!!!! /j

[saishu-harachi-thegatorlord]

got bored, searched up angel numbers, did this-

111 - Intuition - Whit

222 - Alignment - Min

333 - Support - Eden

444 - Protection - Hu

555 - Change - Charles

666 - Reflect - Ace

777 - Luck - Teruko

888 - Balance - Levi

999 - Release - David

i know literally nothing about angel numbers this is just from the stuff i searched up :>

[demodraws0606]

Charwhit and Teruxander are parallels and I'm scared for Charles oh god.

My friend and I just realised the similarities between Charwhit and Teruxander from a character design standpoint, like it's actually uncanny.

They both have extremely similar smiling expressions (btw I checked literally every other sprite and only Eden comes close to have a similar smiling sprite).

Their hair is also literally the fucking same just flipped and Xander also has messier hair.

If you're not convinced I literally traced Xander's hair and overlapped it on Whit's sprite. It's literally just identitical to Whit's hair just messier.

Obviously we can get into their personality on how they're both characters that seemed "difficulty" (Whit's lack of ability to take things seriously and Xander's hot headedness) but then showed that they were actually quite kind. However they're also very secretive about their past and seem to hold baggage that they dont want to share.

Now let's get into Charles and Teruko, the similarities are less obvious like them having the same fucking hair but it's still there.

They both have ponytails but in reverse positioned, similar to how Xanwhit's haircut is reversed.

They also have a sprite pose that is extremely similar.

But I do actually think the similarities with Teruko and Charles mostly come from the storyline itself.

From Chapter 1 and 2 their role seems to have reversed, Teruko becoming distrusting of everyone and Charles becoming extremely trusting of Whit. This parallel is pointed out in Chapter 2 quite obviously.

They also have something going on with their brother but that's just more like...a fun fact type of thing.

Anyways yeah considering how DRDT's whole thing is supposed to be "You shouldn't trust blindingly but you shouldn't also distrust everyone" and Whit/Xander seem to parallel uhmm...

I'm worried for Charles.

DRDT MASTERMIND AU!

Every DRDT was a past participant of a killing game. Now, they are all being forced to play in one more killing game.

The only unknown thing..? They’re all masterminds. (An AU made because of the mass amounts of mastermind aus on Tumblr right now and honestly I’m a huge fan of all of them.)

Teruko Tawaki - ..Actually the only one who hasn’t participated in a killing game. The mastermind who was supposed to participate (her brother from the orphanage) mysteriously disappeared. So they went to..other measures.

Xander Matthews - Survived by defeating the mastermind (canon Danganronpa endings).

Eden Tobisa - Escaped due to a motive where if someone got away with killing, they could bring someone with them. (Was horrified and ran away into society to distract herself from the killing game. This ended up being her downfall as it gave the producers ideas as to where she was.)

Min Jeung - Survived because the mascot had decided to revive a random participant as the blackened ending up stabbing themself as everyone got executed

Hu Jing - Survived because the mascot was broken (chapter 4). This is why MonoTV is so strong now, since the killing game had ended before because of the mascot being destroyed.

J Rosales - Survived by defeating the mastermind

Charles Cuevas - Survived by winning the trial (the matter was so traumatizing for him that his brain completely blocked out the fact and makes blood repulsive)

Arturo Giles - Survived because he wasn’t an actual participant in the killing game, but rather a helper to the mascot

Arei Nageishi - Survived because she ended up killing her sister who was a fellow participant in the killing game and won the trial by guilt-tripping everyone

Ace Markey - Survived by defeating the mastermind

Nico Hakobyan - Survived because they were a traitor in their killing game

Whit Young - Survived because outsiders ended up saving the killing game participants during chapter three

Rose Lacroix - Survived because she was brought into a killing game late because she was caught sneaking around the facility (her sibling was in the killing game) before helping defeat the mastermind (though her sibling died in the process)

Veronika Grebenschikova - Survived because the mastermind got defeated

Levi Fontana - Survived by being a blackened

David Chiem - Survived because he was a ‘traitor’ for the mastermind (ended up pulling strings so that the mastermind also died whilst the execution for everyone happened)

Mastermind Teruko sprite edit

Idk, just an idea (also I needed a sprite of Teruko flipping us all off)

THIS IS FANMADE AND I HAVE NO ASSOSIATION WITH THE DANGANRONPA DESPAIR TIME DEV

[smudgesticksgonnasmudgingflip]

I can't believe I can't translate my traditional drawings into digital anymore lol

Can you understand the lore in this?

Implied spoilers for the @ask-xanvid-and-whace-mm-aus blog

[timeskip]

My queue is almost empty now... Sad

[acethehorseishere]

ooo MM Ace calls MonoTV Taylor- is there a reason for that or is he just a silly guy

Yes and no? Taylor is MonoTV's name. Ace was given the opportunity to name it, and Taylor was the only name he could possibly use.

It does serve a secondary purpose as a trigger-word- basically, if you call it by its name and follow that with an order or request, MonoTV is compelled to fulfill it to the best of its ability. It's not as simple as learning its name, though- it also has a voice recognition device installed so it only works with Ace, exclusively.

Like this, basically. Obedience mode MonoTV doesn't have any expression at all.

[thxrgism]

considering the mild plot holes in the case im wondering if this is a V3-1 situation and Eden might turn out to be the mastermind

[demodraws0606]

Put Xander, Teruko and Whit together....call that the No Family Gang.

[saishu-harachi-thegatorlord]

ALSO WAIT

the killing game not being meant as a punishment for Teruko

what if the mastermind wants to help her-

(Spoilers for ch2 ep16)

Since she mentions that dying would be far too kind for her- What if whoever set up the killing game did it to free her from her curse? By making a game to kill her-

So that means the mastermind had some kind of connection to her- But since the whole memory-erased-thing, we can’t actually be sure who it could be- The easiest guess would be like, Eden or something, but i’m not sure-

anyways! yeah that’s all so far-

So uh not sure if people have put this theory on tumblr already

they probably have

but like- mastermind teruko trying to use the killing game as a way to die maybe

it doesn’t really fit but eh i felt like posting this anyway

but someone else using this killing game as a way to kill her could make sense-

either way, i’m pretty sure that her secret is the one that blames her for this killing game starting-
