Horror hijinks - A gift for @aquariiium for the Fangan gift exchange !!

 Despite their seemingly boring conversation, Veronika had taken interest on Arturo and Aces conversation. She had been eyeing them for a while now, waiting like a predator to make her move. Her Mary janes clacked on the floor as she came to bother the two of them mid banter. “Oh, I couldn’t help but overhear you guys talking! ~ Mind if I join you?”, A smile forming as she took a seat beside them, leaning in.

Arturo shot a glance at Veronika. "You may join if you can manage to keep the volume down. I don't need more noise in my life," he remarked with a touch of annoyance. “What do you have to add to the conversation anyway?”

“Please watch this horror movie with- “

“Absolutely not.” “No way.” They both replied simultaneously.

Veronika started gushing. “Come on!! I found it while rummaging through my room the other day, and it sounds fascinating! Just hearing about it makes me feel like I'm missing out on a masterpiece. I mean, cannibalism as a metaphor for the human mind?! It's not your run-of-the-mill horror shocker; it's a metaphorical journey into the darkest corners of our psyche—”

Arturo rolled his eyes. “Absolutely not. You’ve pulled me into these before. I’m not about to waste my precious time on your “must-watch movies”. Plus, the mere mention of cannibalism sounds repulsive. Do not expect me to participate something like that.”

“What he said.. That stuff sounds seriously messed up.” Ace complained. Both were being defensive, but if they were being honest, the monotony of their days had started to wear on them. At the end of the day, there wasn’t much to do in the building, and time seemed to pass like seconds, leaving them incredibly bored.

Veronikas expression soured as she pouted. “Come on! I already asked Teruko, J, Charles and Arei and none of them agreed . You guys are my last hope! I promise to never ask you guys for anything again!”

“And what exactly do we get for watching this?”

“Ill think of something, just pretty please!” She stood up, determination showing in her face and grabbed Aces arm. “I’m not leaving until the both of you agree!”

Ace looked at Veronika's pleading eyes, then Arturo's disapproving expression. He let out a dramatic groan, resigning himself to the inevitable.

“..Fine, whatever. I don’t have much to do anyway.. but if it gets too messed up I’m out! A-and don’t except me to enjoy it.”

Veronikas face lit up, as she turned to Arturo. “Come on Arty! ~”

“Will you stop nagging me if I watch it?”

“I promise I’ll never ask you for anything again!”

“Alright. If that gets you to stop talking.” Arturo grumbled as he reluctantly rose from his seat.

Veronika's face lit up with victory as she clapped her hands in excitement. "Perfect! You guys’ wont regret it! This movie is going to blow your mind!”

Ace, still uneasy about the whole ordeal, mumbled under his breath, "Yeah, blow our minds or traumatize us for life."

As the trio made their way to the Movie screening room, Veronika couldn’t hide her excitement, fidgeting with her hand. “Id love to see everyone’s comments on the movie, it’s so fascinating how the human mind works and how people fall into stuff like cannibalism – Hey, hey do you guys think that you ever unintentionally ate human meat without noticing because it’s so similar to cow meat?!”

Ace, disturbed by the topic, simply sighed, not wanting to delve much onto it. “So, are we watching this or not?” He asked, as the three of them were now standing inside the room, Veronika crouched and rummaging through the pile of movies.

“Yeah I have it right here!” She beams as she stands up, the DVD cover in her hand. The DVD cover depicted a Woman, in a red dress, with blood on her face and a heart in her hand.

 She confidently inserted the DVD inside one of the projectors, and they all settled on the floor since MonoTV hadn’t blessed them with something more comfortable yet. Veronika sat in the middle, excitingly shifting, while Ace on the other hand was reluctant to even look at the screen, staring off to the side. Arturo hadn’t said a word since they entered the room, but as he was sitting there, seeming rather curious to watch the movie.

The movie started playing on the screen, and the atmosphere immediately grew tense.

“EEK, I’m so excited! Veronika declares, while on the contrary, Ace sighed audibly, clearly disturbed by the unfolding horror. Arturo, surprisingly engaged, observed the scenes with a thoughtful expression, the movie seemingly capturing his attention.

As the movie kept playing, Ace kept jumping at the jump scares, his hand briefly clutching Veronika's arm each time, only to awkwardly retract it. "Stupid movie," he muttered, attempting to play it off with a nonchalant tone.

As the credits rolled, Ace made no attempt to conceal his fear, practically clinging onto Veronika. She turned to Arturo with a smile.

“Soo, watcha think of it?”

“..It was alright.” He muttered. Which was a lie. Arturo had been so fixated on the movie, that had been quiet completely.

Veronika playfully poked his cheek. "Come on, I know you liked it! And you, Ace, seem rather scared..." She chuckled, looking down at Ace, who widened his eyes and promptly retrieved his arm.

“It was fucked up..! Never again..”

Veronika pouted. "Oh well! Let's hope the second movie doesn’t scare you as much."

"SECOND MOVIE!?" Ace exclaimed, while Arturo sighed. It seemed like this was going to be a long night.

Danganronpa 1: Pregame au

Basically: What if the DR1 cast were fans of the Danganronpa series, and auditioned themselves? What would their old lives have been like? 

Warnings: Child abuse, sexual harassment, suicide and other sensitive topics.

Makoto - just an average boy... there's nothing special about him, not at all... in fact, no one would even notice he was gone if he ended up being dying in Danganronpa. So why not go for it? There's no hope for him doing anything impressive in the real world, so maybe he can make an impact in Danganronpa. Even if it's only small. (basically still average but less optimism)

Sayaka - She'd always watched Danganronpa (her parents were busy working and just left the TV on to keep her busy) , and wished she could be like them, like the wonderful detectives that solve everything! She was a quiet girl, and kept to herself, but reckoned she could make it if they just gave her a shot. Being the protagonist and being able to get through any trial (figuratively and literally) would be a dream come true! But waiting outside the audition room, she got a little nervous and fidgety. But she had always found that singing to herself could calm her down. So she did that a little, and managed to forget all her fears. A couple of staff were staring though... was it really that bad?

Leon - never knew what he wanted to do with life. His grades were alright, but he didn't really have any jobs that related to that (especially not a lawyer). He could run relatively fast, but didn't want to spend masses of time training. He could play some guitar, but didn't want to start a band or do anything with that. All around, people were pressuring him to make decisions "You need to do this, you're so good at it!" but he didn't have any real passions... So he choose the easy way out. Danganronpa would make the decision for him.

Chihiro - never really cared what others thought of him. Sometimes he liked wearing cute dresses, sometimes he wanted to wear more masculine clothing. But he'd never doubted that he was happy with himself. Even if other people looked in mixed disgust, he brushed it all aside cause he knew he was awesome. And hey, he did have some friends! But one of these friends wasn't doing too well, and was going to join Danganronpa as an escape. Chihiro tried to convice them it was a bad idea, but they wouldn't back down. So Chihiro decided that they would audition too, so they could try to protect them a little. (it's up to interpretation who the friend is)

Mondo - always overshadowed by his older brother. He was generally a quiet kid, but had some problems with his temper when he got mad. He didn’t like it, but he often got into trouble, and no one really liked him... And he was going to be expelled if he kept this up. And his parents always seemed so disappointed, even if they never said anything...  So he decided to audition for Danganronpa. 

Ishimaru - was always a bit of a loner. He found social interaction hard, as he didn't always grasp when people were joking or not. And apparently, he often sounded like he was being sarcastic, even though that was never his intention. His father died when he was young, and his mother moved with his grandfather. The grandfather would often jokingly talk about how Ishimaru needed to do better in class (even though he was averaging 96%). Grandpa Ishi didn't do this with any malicious intentions, but the boy took it to heart, and tried studying harder and harder. 

Eventually, the stress got too much, and he needed to take a real break. Around this time, there were commercials saying "apply now for Danganronpa: THH!" (they always gave initials but never what they stood for, build the suspense you know?). And Mamma Ishi said "Look at that, you're just the right age!" She was joking of course, she would never want her son to go through something like that.  But Ishimaru was never the best as recognising what people really meant...

Hifumi - was  a special case. He had been part of the online Danganronpa community for years (he was possibly too young when he got into it, but hey, the internet you know?). He was also a pretty popular fanfic writer, and had written several successful fangans. Team Danganronpa noticed this, and knew he was just about the right age now. So they contacted him directly, and made him an offer: he should join Danganronpa... as himself! Without any brainwashing to give a new personality or talent. Of course, if he ever told anyone the truth about the killing game, he'd be killed instantly. And in exchange, all of his works would legally belong to Team Danganronpa (who could capitalise off of them however they saw fit. This lead to the first magical girl spinoff, based on one of his earlier works. Also they made a couple of animated mini-series based on his fangans. They made tons) 

Hifumi accepted.

Celestia - never had anything. She never had a family, she never had a home, she barely had an education. All she wanted was to have a better life. And after all she’d been through, she deserved to have it all! But there was no way to get it realistically. So she auditioned for Danganronpa. If only for a short while, she’d have the happiness she’d been craving, and the lifestyle to go with it. 

Sakura Oogami had always been tall for her age. And she was often insecure about it. She also enjoyed sports, which lead to her becoming a little muscly as well - which she had always thought was unsightly for a girl. At 12 years old she was 5'10, and she soon found out why. She had a rare genetic mutation, that prevented her body from stopping her growth. But of course, this had some side effects - she wasn't going to live until 18. Sakura was understandably unhappy, but decided to do something with her life until she inevitably died. She decided to keep up the training, and started to love her muscles. She tried her best to be a good example, and do good deeds... 

But then she had an idea. In her youth, she had never really had tall muscly female role models. Or if they existed - they were one dimensional 'girls who learnt to fight because they have 4 brothers' (what strong female characters). There were also the tall girls in romcoms who guys were intimidated by. Girls needed more than that... so she would be the role model! At 16, and 6'3, Sakura auditioned for Danganronpa, not caring if she survived the game or not. All she wanted... was for people to look at her and say "Wow, I wish I could be like her"

Kyoko - tried her best. After a divorce in her youth, she didn't see her father much (as her mother's family was much better off, and fought hard for custody). But she loved both her parents a lot, and always wanted to impress them. Her father seemed pleased whatever she did, and her mother always told her she was proud. Her mother's family were very involved in her life, and seemed to question everything her mother did. It was only because they wanted the best for her of course! Remember what we said about Jin? And you went and married him anyway! Look how that turned out! 

 As she grew older - maybe 10 years old? - Kyoko saw her extended family in a harsher light. If they never had anything nice to say, why say it? She tried to stand up for her mother, but was laughed away, and her mother was criticised for not teaching her respect for her elders. But she was spending more weekends with her father now, and her parents seemed to be getting on better than before. Not good enough that they'd try again (yet), but it was better than nothing. And for the first time in years, Kyoko was able to spend time with both parents.

Unfortunately when she was 15, Kyoko's dad was given a new job... in a different country. And he promised he would visit, those times seemed few and far between. And during one of these times... her mother killed herself. And it seemed that she had been the one shielding Kyoko all these years. Without her, all the family's expectations were placed on Kyoko, pressuring her to do things she didn't enjoy. And it had been months since she'd last heard from her father... maybe he'd forgotten about her (her family wouldn't let his letters go through) 

 So she signed up for Danganronpa to get away. But as fate would have it, her father visited the day she was taken away for the game. He desperately pleaded to be let in. Heck, he'd even go through the game to save his daughter! And in a way, his wish was granted. Kyoko was intended to die in chapter 5, but with a connection to an extra like this? She could survive... plus, they had been looking for a headmaster.

Byakuya - was unsatisfied with his life. His father gave him gifts, but no love. All the toys he could want! But he was too busy to celebrate Christmas together. A great TV! But never a nice meal out. Whatever he wanted, except time together. His mother had died young, and Byakuya grew up lonely. But he understood, his father was a busy man after all. His father had plenty of expectations, and Byakuya tried to live up to them. His father never smiled at him, but he was always told "You're doing well boy." and that was enough. It was his father's way of showing affection... wasn't it? 

 He got though life, and he did a good job of it too. He was all set up to go to the most prestigious college, and go on to take over the company... but when he though about that future... he didn't enjoy the thought of it. He only saw himself growing up exactly like his father... and he hated the thought. Now Byakuya was going through that rebellious phase. And he wanted to do something new. Something his father would never approve of... Danganronpa. He was going to reinvent his image. When people thought Togami, they wouldn't think about the finance company, they'd remember the double murderer. And maybe his father could find someone else to take over.

Aoi - wasn't happy with her body. As long as she could remember, people had made comments about how attractive she was, and how they couldn't believe how young she was, she was so mature for her age (in personality, of course)! She loved donuts, but always got comments about she shouldn't eat so much, she'd get fat. She always felt judged for her interests. "You like Danganronpa? Name the favourite colour of the first person killed in the third chapter of Danganronpa 12: Failure and Puhuhu." (which is pretty hard, cause the murder was incredibly complicated and 5 people ended up dying, but not in the order they were found (one of who killed another after their own death)). But at least on the internet, there were people who didn't treat her like that. Until she worked up the courage to post a selfie of her cosplay. 

 She ended up auditioning for Danganronpa, if only to say "Do I know Danganronpa? I was in it fucker." one day. But she had one request if she got in - she didn't want to wear a mini-skirt.

Hagakure - was a bum. A complete and utter waste to society. He had been held back too many times. He didn't want it to be like this, but he could just never retain information the way other people could. He tried every studying technique, every book that said "NEVER STRUGGLE IN SCHOOL AGAIN IN 5 EASY STEPS!" but it didn't work. He tried his best, but he could never do it. And he hated it. He wanted to get a good job, to make his mama proud, but he could never do it, because he was just too stupid! He was a little too old to enrol in his school (and he made the staff look bad at official inspections), so he was officially hired as a janitor and was allowed to attend classes. (But hey, seeing as he was a student, they could technically pay him less than minimum wage. They wouldn't pay the student council now, would they?) 

 Hagakure wanted more. He couldn't do another year of trying and failing. He couldn't take the looks his younger, better classmates gave him. He couldn't. And there was no age limit for Danganronpa... you only needed to be in high school - which he was. It was worth a shot, if only to rid the world of his utter uselessness.

Toko - couldn't go on. Her mother and father hated her. Everyone hated her. She couldn't do anything right. She took the first chance to audition, and in the process she ended up spilling her entire life story. "Ah, I'm so sorry, I bet you're not at all interested in someone like me, I'll just leave now and save you the pain." But Team Danganronpa were interested (and hey, this saved them writing their own backstory! Just change that father to another mother (they're not lesbians, it's just very convoluted) and you're ready to go!). 

 Toko often found herself with blank spaces in her memory. The first was when she was locked in a cupboard for an entire day, but it didn't feel that long. She assumed she just passed out from not eating enough. But that wasn't quite true. Due to her trauma, she'd developed a severe case of DID (which went undiagnosed for years). This second personality was not a serial killer, was not a psychopath, was not objectively evil, and was not [insert negative DID stereotype here] 

 Team Danganronpa took one look at the potential of a 'split personality' character and simultaneously thought "It's free real estate"

Mukuro and Junko - They were twins of course, and had been kicked out onto the streets. It was them against the world. But they always stayed together. They were all the other had. While Mukuro became saddened by the world, Junko became angry. But they couldn't give up. Mukuro tried to make friends, to find a small jobs she could do - even if i meant she could only buy McDonalds for the two of them every day or so. Junko didn't try as much. Sure, she did some things when she could, but she wasn't going to give more back to the world than she had to. She was mostly dependant on Mukuro still. 

Mukuro wanted to create a new life. She found a job where the store manager was willing to turn a blind eye and let them stay in a small backroom. But Junko wasn't so happy. Whilst the manager was willing to let them stay for seemingly nothing, he was awfully pushy towards her. She smiled back, doing as little as she could without making him angry. She didn't want to be kicked out again. 

But she ran out of patience when the manager made a request that was too much. "That room's awfully cramped for the two of you. Why don't you spend the night at my place tonight? You can even sleep on a proper bed for once." Junko knew what he wanted. And like hell she was going to let him have it. She told Mukuro they needed to go, now. She didn't say the reason, but Mukuro knew she must have a reason. 

 Long story short - Junko stole a car. And they drove to the audition building. "We're going to join Danganronpa."  "What?" "It's better than what we have there. And we'll get nice food restocked everyday. And a school roof over our heads (unless we're in a resort DR, which would be even nicer)." 

 Junko and Mukuro auditioned separately, and Team Danganronpa let slip they were very interested in having a game with twins. Junko made a few comments too. "Wow, it'd be pretty tragic if one of the twins died, and the other had to live with the other's death until the final chapter." Team DR chuckled a little. "But if you try something like that... 

 "Please kill the one named Junko."

all multiples of 4 for the meme >:^3c

shipping questions

4. What’s your current NOTP?

It is and always will be Mu.na.sa.ka, no matter what. Though, as of late, my hate for it has lessened slightly. Slightly.

8. Have you ever shipped yourself with a character?

Way back on my first account, when I first got tumblr, I had this really big crush on Edgeworth, so I made. A persona and shipped her with him. It was weird, but it’s helped, in a way? Because of how on and off I am about pda, I just remember that I used to do that and I’d feel better.

12. Have you ever been disappointed when your ship finally got together?

I don’t think any of my pairings have ever canonically gotten together sdjfhfhfg,,

16. Talk about a ship you initially disliked.

HAGAKUREON. I don’t know, something about it rubbed me the wrong way. Now? I love them. Good Boys.

20. Talk about a ship you feel alone in shipping.

They call me the Kizajin King because no one else makes content.

24. Do you mostly ship canon pairings?

Fuck no,

28. Does shipping come easily to you?

It does, yeah. It’s a little silly, but I just,, really like people being happy together. And if there are two characters who I think could bounce off of each other well, and grow as people because of it? They’re dating now.

32. Share five must-read fics.

Oh god I haven’t read a fic in a while but, these are my faves;

Dangan Ronpa: Rewound Despair by rewound_despair (gayishimaru) - This is a fangan featuring some familiar characters, written by someone very dear to me. Check it out!!

isn't it just so cool when you can chase your dreams? by ikuzonos - A fic with two of my rarepairs? Perfect. Written by Vee who is,, honestly my writing idol. I think about this fic a lot.

The Most Wonderful Time (for Gay Happy Meetings) by estelraca - This was written for me in last years AA Christmas Exchange, and it’s just -kisses fingers- perfect.

The Product of an Angel by ikuzonos for Natogami - Another fic gifted to me, this one was for my birthday last year and I could not be happier to have recieved it.

unsaid; unanswered; unheard by soniagiris - any fic you write is perfection, Sil, but this one is my personal favourite

36. Do you create fanmixes/gif sets/fanart/fic/fanvids and so on for you ships?

Only fics, because I’m not talented enough to do anything else. I do want to make a fanmix one day, though.

40. If you could change one thing about your OTP, what would that be?

I want... Jin to be alive? Like, having him be dead kinda. Helped Kyouko in a way, but like. Also, having him be alive would make it so that he would have to confront her, and she would have to actually talk to him, and they could talk things out. Additionally, he would probably work at Future Foundation if he was alive, meaning him and Kizakura would get together and be happy and now I’m emo.
