🎁 Happy holidays from A Wonderful Danganronpa! (12/25)

[NO SPOILERS]

🐰 USAMI:

"Bwuh? It’s Christmas again? Um, I mean, the Very Eternal Birthday of the Empress Ryoko Otonashi. Or was it the Birthday of the Very Eternal Empress Ryoko Otonashi…? I always try to make a calendar of these things…but then I forget where I put the calendar…and also I can’t write... Awawawa—wait! No time to mosey about thinking stormy thoughts! The students need their presents…! Pip pip cheerio…!"

Looks like the Monastery's celebrating the winter holidays. Click under the cut to see how each character responds to their gift...

📖 SUZURAN DUSTCRAWL:

“GUH! Nope, don’t want it. Don’t need it. Put it in the incinerator. Drop it off a cliff. Hold a funeral for it and invite everyone you know. This box has something in there. Something foul and evil and classified as an infectious disease— Oh…it’s from Usami. That’s…better? … …this will be nice when it gets warmer out. The coat I’m wearing right now—you know…the monks, Usami, they’ve told me that I patched and sewed a lot of it myself, but they’re just making fun of me. I know they’re just making fun of me. I can’t hold anything in my skull, but I’d remember if I had that kind of skill—and everyone always has to make fun of me. This place is a frigging circus and I’m the star of the freak show. All spotlights on Suzuran…flash on, flash off…tomatoes tossed in my general direction. Booooooo. … …this sure is a nice sweater, though.”

🎁❄️🎁❄️🎁❄️

🚦 SENJU THE EXCELLENT: 

“Ohohohoho! So it appears heaven once again claims me as their chosen one! Behold: tribute! Behold: mistletoe above, spontaneously sprung, that sweet plant of summertime births! Who might I find underneath? You must think I’m the sort who feeds from the bottom of the river…that just anyone will do. And indeed, I am a privilege…but she is also a privilege. I have my hopes my beloved will wander this way…I have had my hopes all my life.”

🎁❄️🎁❄️🎁❄️

🕰️ SIX SHINODA:

“Oh, fuck a mother. She’s coming this way with a box. Yes, yes, thank you, Headmaster…goddamn it. I appreciate the thought. Hmm. It’s…good, actually. No—I really do appreciate the thought. I grew up with so many siblings that as we all got older, people opted to simply give my parents wine as a gift…which ended up with we thirteen children, generally. But wine is just a crutch. It’s all just a crutch, alcohol. Give me cigarettes any day. Or failing that…anyway: I would like to enjoy my alone time smoking in the future, if at all possible.”

🎁❄️🎁❄️🎁❄️

🩸 WISTERIA ITO:

“<hic> Lovely, lovely Usami. Saw you hitting up sweet Six over there. Her face looked sour, but it’s always looked that way: she’s…<hic> gorgeously cruel. Oh, I miss it. Oh, I’m positively shiiiivering at the memory. <hic> Or I’m faltering on these legs that have carried me so far. This could be my very last night, you know. But if my luck continues, I am so sorry for the fact I am about to vomit directly on your feet. … This frog, by the way…<hic> There are no laws surrounding its experimental use, did you know? Not that I think the Empress’s influence carries very far up here. Mmhmhm…yes, there is a lot I can do with this little man.”

🎁❄️🎁❄️🎁❄️

🌕 YUWA GLADIA:

“Thy generosity honors me, Headmaster! Ah, when the snow falls in such a way, I am reminded of mine own home village in the mountains, and a verse so ancient: The woods are lovely, dark and deep,/But I have promises to keep,/And miles to go before I sleep… Ah? Nay, ‘tis not a poem of mine, but inspiration tonight clutcheth my soul. Mayhaps this is the year I shall finish an epic about the old Hope’s Peak Academy. … Er—I should not speak on it, but—indeed, Kaname dwelleth in the vents tonight.”

🎁❄️🎁❄️🎁❄️

🦈 KANAME YOSHIDA:

“THE TAG SAYS—KANAME YOSHIDA. YES—YOU SPELLED IT RIGHT. I’M JUST STILL GETTING USED TO THAT. THE NAME. I’VE NEVER HAD MUCH USE FOR—KANAME YOSHIDA. OR FOR GIFTS. I KNOW IT’S THE EMPRESS’S BIRTHDAY—BUT THIS ISN’T A PROPOSITION—IS IT? I HOPE THAT DOESN’T SOUND TOO RUDE. … I HAVE TO ASK THAT I’M NOT GIVEN ANY MORE GIFTS. OH—IT’S—UM—LOVELY. IT COULD HELP ME FIND LEADS—THEORETICALLY. NEWS SHOWS. BUT WE—ALL THE KANAME YOSHIDAS OF THE WORLD—OWN NOTHING. WE ARE OWNED. IF THAT MAKES SENSE. I HOPE THAT DOESN’T SOUND TOO RUDE. … YES—I HAVE BEEN SLEEPING IN THE VENTS. THEY’RE WARM AT THIS TIME OF YEAR.”

🎁❄️🎁❄️🎁❄️

🍯 HACHIHEI ROUSEI:

“Let me help you, Headmaster. No, let me help you. Let me help. I am here to serve. That’s as Saint Tojo once said—but you know that. It’s illogical for you to deliver these all yourself on the day of our glorious Empress—you are positively and perfectly packed with presents, I must say! But I admire your persistence. You are one who makes the impossible possible, to paraphrase Momota the Luminary—you, a positively possible professor, perfectly packed with presents…so let me help you. This one is for me? I never did learn the kanji for my name, so…oh, it is for me. I’m…blessed that you would think me so worthy of a sliver of history like this. It’s practically an heirloom—I am worthy? I guess you’re right. Right and righteous in all regards and rational, too. Yes—I really do think you’re right.  Now let me help you!”

🎁❄️🎁❄️🎁❄️

✈️ FUBU FUSELAGE:

“A bear? A bear? Abearabearallcoveredinhair? For me? For little old me personally? Yahoo! Yippee! Wahoo! Hellyeahhooyeahbooyahetcetera! Buuuuuuuuuuut—Headmaster, Headmaster, Headmaster, I don’t think it’s going to help me sleep. I don’t need the gremlins to tell me that, nope nope notatall nope. I can go a long time without sleeping. Days weeks months. Years? I haven’t slept in four days. Too excited for the Empress’s birthday! ToofreakingSTOOOOOOOOOOOOOKED!!!”

🎁❄️🎁❄️🎁❄️

🏍️ REIKA BOULEVARD:

“Um… … … …yes, this is…um, this is adequate. I know you can’t afford much as a Headmaster God and all, so, um… …I do think sometimes…that I could build a better rocket, you know. The vibrations in quartz…you could harness it for, um, anything. But, um…I really have no interest…unless my wife does. Um… Tonight I’m finding a wife…I’ve put up mistletoe everywhere, like the Book says to do. Please don’t take it down…you slut.”

🎁❄️🎁❄️🎁❄️

🌀 HIKARI SEKI:

“Nyuhuhuhuh! And here I thought you were a goshin’ Neanderthal like the rest of these farm animals. Turns out you understand the civilized things in life, don’t you, Headmaster? I guess you’d have to if you wanted to keep a place like this running. I can’t even imagine the kinds of troglodytes you have mucking up such a holy hall. Barbaric! Tell you what: let’s go bird-watching when the weather warms up. Then I can decide if you’re a real AI with a brain like a human’s or just a robo-monkey. Nyuhuhuhuh!”

🎁❄️🎁❄️🎁❄️

🎸 MELVILLE POINTE:

“No one ever has to do anything like this for me, yeah? It’s unnecessary for gifts to arrive on my doorstep, yeah? Is it understood that this ukulele is too much? Is it understood that I’m just a guy? Headmaster. This is way too much for just a guy, yeah? If it’s important to keep it, I’ll keep it, right? I’ll make good use of it. But the gifts, is it possible to stop with them? Is it possible for me to have peace on this night? Or at all? But nevermind. Do you hear me when I say nevermind?”

🎁❄️🎁❄️🎁❄️

💥 TEISUKE NAGAMORI:

“Now this is what I’m talkin’ about, Headmiss. I gotta keep everyone on watch. Not that I don’t trust y’all’s healers and the like, but I know some old cures that you ain’t ever heard of, ‘cause they’re in no book. Cures against…the unnatural. Like anything that Ito girlie could do to you. Eugh. Headmiss, what’re y’all doing that you’re letting witches into a place like this? She might be at half-power but they’re most dangerous when they’re in their death throes. I ain’t wish no harm on her but if she steps outta line…trust me, I know what they can do. You tell me if you think you got a fever...or, unrelated, if you need a fireworks show for the festivities.”

🎁❄️🎁❄️🎁❄️

🧚 IZUMO OHIGATA:

“Hell fucking yessssss~ 🎶 It’s mother fucking fuuuuudge~ 🎶 But I can’t eat it right this moment, or I’ll spoil my appetite. There is gonna be a cake later, right? Oooh, I can feel that tonight’s gonna be a real one. I can feeeeeeeeel it~ 🎶 Protagonists like me have that sense. Call it…main character syndrome. Something real important is gonna happen. Oh, like maybe someone will die, and all their insides will spill out, and I’ll have to sew them back in with their own foot tendons. Shit, I’m hungry for cake just thinking about it. When’s the cake come out pleaaaaaaaaaase~? 🎶”

🎁❄️🎁❄️🎁❄️

♟️ MASATO NOBORU:

“Hah! Yes! Splendid! Headmaster, I shall have to pick your most brilliant godly brain. When I graduate from here, I’ll be starting a school of my own. Not to compete, mind you, heavens no. To teach others what I know of chess! How wonderful! I’ll use this to organize my thoughts and notes. Oh, and this reminds me of my days in Novoselic amongst the Makongo farmers. Such wild and spectacular customs they had, including roasting its genitalia on a—hah, but to understand that story you must hear of the time I spent in the slums of Towa City, dueling ne’er-do-wells in bars. Each day was a struggle for survival with only my ivory pieces and—hah, but the details you need to know about that come from my month in the Arctic, the dangers of which I somehow escaped. With all extremities intact, believe it or not, and a chess board made of scrimshaw to boot. Hah, now I remember, I meant to ask you if you’ve ever heard of Ludenberg Castle, since its original owner, I believe, attended the Monastery long ago—I shall have to ask the young librarian if there are any writings here about her. But this notebook—yes, I have the perfect pen to use in it, too. A most splendid pen! A divine pen! I must show it to you sometime, Headmaster. There are legends surrounding this pen, which my partner’s ancestors had stolen from a temple dedicated to the Saints, and which had been passed down through the ages to him—many say it is a haunted pen, but I do believe it is simply old—and how it smells of stink bug. But it never runs out of ink! Hah, oh, if only he could see me now—my partner. I wonder what he would think. When we traversed the seas on his one-man cruise ship—which he had named for me, the lad—he used to tell me…”

🎁❄️🎁❄️🎁❄️

🏹 YAEKO TOGAMI:

“Well, now, a fine salutationing to you too, Headmaster. Gotta say, I don’t really need anything for the holidays on account of my most extensive adundunce—abund—abundunce? But I’m never one to turn down a fishing rod…especially since no one wanted to come to my pre-party hunting trip. There’s bears and beasties and all kinds of craters—creamers—yeah, craters, up here in the mountains. Creatures. Craters. Crumbles.  Say, you know, next year if you really wanna get me something, you should get me the gift of you, y’know? Run around a little and let me put some arrows in your noggin? I’ll even have ‘em made costume out of pink gold so they’ll match your rosy red cheeks. Custom, yeah, that’s what I meant. And it’s not like I’ll let you suffer! I’ll have the Togami Conglomerate pay for a new divine body right after, so long as you let me chop off your head. It’d look splendiferous above my mettle. Mantle. It’s mettle, right? Anyway, then everyone’s bound to respect me…”

🎁❄️🎁❄️🎁❄️

⚛️ VERITAS YOBIYAMA:

“What? Headmaster, these are my favorite flavor. How’d you know these are my fave…? You asked? I don’t remember you asking. I DON’T remember you ASKING. Don’t you LIE to me. DON’T YOU LIE TO ME, HEADMASTER!!!!! I’m perfectly calm. I wasn’t raising my voice. Only liars raise their voice and Veritas Yobiyama is no liar. I would NEVER lie. I would NEVER LIE! I WOULD NEVER LIE TO YOU, HEADMASTER! WHAT’S YOUR PROBLEM? HUH? WHAT’S YOUR PROBLEM????????? Serenity now. Serenity now. Say, I should get you something in return. It’s only fair, man. I don’t want this to be a one-way street. That’s dishonest. That’s DISHONEST serenity now. Unless…you’re trying to start a competition with me. Seeing who can give the most gifts. To each other. To others. Is that what this is about? IS THAT what this is ABOUT? Because Veritas Yobiyama can GO, Headmaster! I CAN GO!!! WE CAN GO RIGHT FUCKING NOW, HEADMASTER!!!”

🎁❄️🎁❄️🎁❄️

⚪⚫ ???:

“Aww, shucks. No one ever invites me to their parties…especially not my beloved big sister, Usami. Womp womp. Well, nothin’ to be done about it. Not like I can get out from under here myself, after all. But as that old veggie group once said: I got a feeling~ 🎶 And I got a feeling…that I’ll be out of here quite soon indeed. Puhuhuhu…puhuhuhu.  Tonight’s gonna be a good night, ‘cuz I’m going back to sleep. For now. See you laaaater…”

🧚DESIGN: Izumo Ohigata, facial marking variations

"🎶 It's so goooooood to be here~ With all these people who are definitely aliiiiiiiiiive~ 🎶"

[NO SPOILERS]

Izumo's birthday is approaching on the 2nd, so she's on the docket for beta design finalization!

she's got a marking on her face she claims is a royal birthmark, but i didn't like the original i did in her first draft, so here's some variations (including one blank-flank Izumo as a control). the barcode is interesting but, i feel, a little too much. the dots-and-lines are also interesting, but don't feel in line with the aesthetic i've established. i think i'll maybe-possibly be going with the line of 3 dots, soon as i double check that it isn't culturally appropriating anybody.

by the way! i keep saying claims about Izumo's history because, in the world of A WONDERFUL DANGANRONPA, it's really hard to confirm anyone's backstory. maybe Izumo is Sonia Nevermind's long lost clone, or maybe she bonked her head a few too many times getting high on formaldehyde and really loves psychedelics. it's hard to say.

also, to be frank, Suzuran thinks she's crazy. then again, Suzuran thinks just about every Wonder is crazy.

🧚DESIGN: Izumo Ohigata crest

[NO SPOILERS]

a crest that the Undertaking Wonder Izumo wears on her outfit, though i haven't decided firmly on its location yet. (possibly a pin, or embroidery.) she claims it's the insignia of the "Bone Tower" where she was held as a "royal" child, though no one at the Monastery has seen it before. Usami thinks it looks familiar, but doesn't want to dwell on it.

by the way! i keep saying claims about Izumo's history because, in the world of A WONDERFUL DANGANRONPA, it's really hard to confirm anyone's backstory. maybe Izumo is Sonia Nevermind's long lost clone, or maybe she bonked her head a few too many times getting high on formaldehyde and really loves psychedelics. it's hard to say.

also, to be frank, Suzuran thinks she's crazy. then again, Suzuran thinks just about every Wonder is crazy.

🧚DESIGN: Izumo Ohigata crest

[NO SPOILERS]

a crest that the Undertaking Wonder Izumo wears on her outfit, though i haven't decided firmly on its location yet. (possibly a pin, or embroidery.) she claims it's the insignia of the "Bone Tower" where she was held as a "royal" child, though no one at the Monastery has seen it before. Usami thinks it looks familiar, but doesn't want to dwell on it.

[USAMI PROTOTYPE PROJECTION 006]

[SOME SPOILERS]

once again, a preview of a Rabbits' Eye, which is a kind of collectible in A WONDERFUL DANGANRONPA. when given to Usami, each eye will reveal important info about the past.

today's eye features a note of importance, it seems, found within the ancient desk of the Last Mortal Headmaster, Makoto Naegi.

[a-wonderful-danganronpa]

[NO SPOILERS]

Kaname values Saint Pekoyama's loyalty, basically, as someone with her own figurehead to obey.

however!

one might also say Kaname misunderstood Peko's role in the Kuzyuryu clan. the information our Gossip Wonder found only spoke of Peko the bodyguard, never Peko the person...if that makes sense. it's not like Kaname could ask anyone for clarification, though, because we're a few centuries into the future. the Monastery has Kuzuryu relics galore, but nothing that would indicate Fuyuhiko saw Peko as more than a tool. (which he did, in this universe and all others.)

all this information isn't a spoiler as it's not relevant to the plot: just a little detail about Kaname. it might come up within incidental dialogue etc though, so be sure to talk to her down the line when the game comes out if you're a Peko fan.

🦈 ABOUT: the Gossip Wonder

[NO SPOILERS]

continuing on with our little series introducing all the characters! yesterday we said howdy to the game's Togami, our 🏹 Hunting Wonder.

today, let's meet...the Gossip Wonder! she's...

...an awkward girl with a built-in “divine device” around her mouth that allows her to talk. seems to deliver intel to shitty news rags. quiet and a loner due to the mistrust of others, though surprisingly amicable…to a degree. most are unnerved by her profession and her inclination towards sudden bouts of manic robo-laughter at inappropriate times; to her, a good punchline is the solution to all the world’s cruelty. yet she doesn’t seem to understand what she does is exploitative. in fact, eavesdropping, for her, appears completely compulsive.

design stuff:

many possible first names, but right now the Big Contenders are Ame (雨, "rain") or Kaname (奏雨 "report" + "rain")

another "firstborn" of mine! i think she was probably the first or second student character i created.

she is, as of right now, one of four characters who has a "divine device" or cybernetic prosthetic. hers is affixed to her jaw, as stated. the others include the protagonist (inner ear), the Poet Wonder (arm) and the Speed Wonder (both legs). missing body parts and organs are not uncommon in the world of AWD, as i've said before, but true "divine devices" are relatively rare.

in-universe:

her birthday is Nov 5, making her a Scorpio!

her blood type is A!

likes: aquariums

dislikes: eating

in my design document, her three keywords are STEALTHY, INHUMAN, and "OFF."

she was raised by an unknown figure she refers to as “the Benefactor,” who also seems to own the last remaining global news outlets

and a small, very vague

[SOME SPOILERS]

past the cut here:

AWD is so much about playing with the traditional Danganronpa roles. i wanted a character that is not the antagonist, really, but creepily and compulsively does "antagonist" type shit. yet she can't stop herself nor does she hold any bad blood towards any of the other students, and is in fact quite affable, if you can get past her manic tittering. she doesn't even fully comprehend her own actions.

she is not overly proud like Byakuya and not obsessed with hope and talent like Nagito and doesn't consider herself some evil prankster mastermind like Kokichi. in this way, i wanted to put players in a bind with their own emotions: with all the nonsense she's causing, am i really that annoyed, really that angry? who's the real antagonist here?

one character compares her to a well-trained sheepdog that, once rehomed in the city, continually breaks through your apartment window and never stops trying to herd small objects.

for her part, the Gossip Wonder would rather be a fish.

[DECODED INTERVIEW 11.1.20XX] [PARTICIPANTS: MIU IRUMA, 29, F; MUKURO IKUSABA, 31, F]

[0:09 - 1:11]

IRUMA: Yeah, yeah, yeah. The variables ain't even that hard to change if you needed it. I mean, for a golden-brained hot-bod ubergenius like— IKUSABA: And me? IRUMA: Nah, not for flat-chested gun-nut dipshits. It's a contingency, y'know? In case we get commands from on high. But if on high brings his baby dick down here to change it himself, he won't figure it out. You need a certain kinda mind. Ryoko has it, me and the boytoys got it, me ESPECIALLY, but— IKUSABA: Baby...dick. IRUMA: Yo. You've pounded him once or twice, right? What's it like getting taken to plowtown by THE Makoto Na— IKUSABA: We could tweak the variables to attract anyone—anything—we wanted? The Monokumas would follow suit? Obey? IRUMA: Like dogs. Bitch, you could have them pull a fuckin' kaiju outta the water with this motherfucker. [Pause.] IRUMA: But like, don't do that shit. [Pause.] IRUMA: Look, even I have standards. Ethicals. IKUSABA: Ethicals. IRUMA: Moralisms! Fuckin'— IKUSABA: Regardless, there's no way anyone...would be able to tell that you three put the complex together— IRUMA: Bzzt. Wrong. Alter Ego runs the thing. They're a little weird but they got it under control. IKUSABA: [A sigh.] Of course. IRUMA: It ain't about on high knowing or not knowing, anyway, Muku-roach. It's about—the world. It's a good world. It's got me in it, and 'Bluey' re-runs. Let's not fuckin' ruin it, yeah? IKUSABA: On that, we agree. IRUMA: Y—yeah. Yeah. What's with that look on your ugly-ass mug? You look like you OD'd on benzos. [Pause.] IRUMA: To answer your question, since you can't put two and two together, I guess—yeah, you could use the 'kumas to scout whatever student for the school. Down to the real fine print. You could bring in only virgins if you wanted. Or only sluts. Or only fat-titted hoes. But I guess that's the same thing. Hah! [Pause.] IRUMA: But I have it set to only the best. I mean, I assume you wanted only the best— IKUSABA: —or only the worst. IRUMA: Heh! Wouldn't that be rich? Heh! Make all us alumni look good by comparison.

IKUSABA: No. Never. I'd enjoy a genuine answer from you. [Pause.] NAEGI: If the same happened to her as to Ryoko, you mean. [Pause.] NAEGI: I'd use all my resources— IKUSABA: And if she held up the world? With her bare hands? With her heart? Her mind? NAEGI: Anything I could...within reason. IKUSABA: No. That's wrong.

More scraping, and the compression of air beneath a cushion as someone sits once more.] NAEGI: I can...ensure your safety and freedom, and give you all you need for Ryoko's care— IKUSABA: Don't you dare twist your face like that. Like it's...like you're pulling out MY teeth one by one. Like it's hurting YOU. NAEGI: What's the password, Mukuro? That's the only information I need. Then I can— IKUSABA: You don't know Ryoko like I do. You don't know what she's been through, and seen in— NAEGI: The password to— IKUSABA: Go ask Soda. Or Iruma, or Fujisaki. You have resources, right, "Headmaster"? NAEGI: I want to hear it from you. [Pause.] IKUSABA: I ought to shoot you where you sit. [Pause.] IKUSABA: The way you're smiling like that— [Pause.] IKUSABA: This is an evil place, Makoto Naegi— NAEGI: The password. IKUSABA: —if it can't save someone like Ryoko Otonashi. If you shut the blood complex down, there's no use calling this shithole Hope's Peak. NAEGI: Mukuro. IKUSABA: There's no hope without her and you know that. You KNOW that.

SODA: When something like that happens, you'd do anything, y'know? Like, anything for a soul bro. NAEGI: You looked the other way... SODA: You get it, right? NAEGI: She promised you an impossible answer. SODA: You get it, man. [Pause.] NAEGI: Yeah. Because it's the Otonashis. SODA: I just wanted to know where Hajime went. And if that meant—I mean, she said it was for research. Mukuro said it was for research only. She gets Ryoko, I get my best buddy... [Pause.] SODA: Maybe I had an inkling, but...does that make me a bad guy? NAEGI: No. I don't think anyone is. SODA: Heh, look at me, still thinkin' about Hajime. But the cops were no help, and cold cases don't really interest anyone except podcasters and stuff. NAEGI: There's a miscommunication here, maybe. I'll speak to Mukuro.

[a-wonderful-danganronpa]

hi! hope you're doing well :3c let's say that the wonders win the lottery (if they even have a lottery in their future) what are they spending the money on? no restrictions whatsoever, anything their hearts desire.

[NO SPOILERS]

oooh, what a fun question! thank you for asking. many of these kids don't really know the value of a dollar from both directions (too poor or too rich, and divorced from society at large) so their answers would vary.

Suzuran: neurology research/a new high-tech neurology wing at the Monastery

Senju: a big house just for her and Suzuran

Yaeko: already rich, so probably just a t-shirt gun to launch the extra money at people in the streets, which she does twice a month anyway. you're welcome

Izumo: all of the Monastery's tomes by Saint Shinguji (lots of fairy tales and folklore), plus a building-sized cake

Fubu: his own private jet for doing airshows, with the rest going back to the Empire. he'd probably put it in an envelope marked TO THE EMPRESS and attempt to send it in the mail, as per the gremlins' instructions. god bless. also he'd get some cool guns

Masato: a school for the poor, built in honor of his ex-lover

Hachihei: an audience with the Empress Otonashi, if possible. why and how he expects money to be able to earn him this honor, who knows. failing that, he'd fund massive statues of her everywhere he could

Six: plastic surgery

Melville: a hitman. not to use, but to teach him skills. and...wait a minute. did Melville just show a molecule, an iota, a smidgen of personality? of backstory?—oh no wait he's waving his hands and saying it was a joke and walking away from us. okay. bye Melv

Wisteria: a great big bottle of wine, a load of sexy escorts, a silent lab, and—mysteriously—a portion set aside as an "inheritance." ("For every action, there is a reaction, as they say. <hic> Trysts stick with you sometimes, baby. <hic> For quite a while. Over the phone, even...")

Kaname: would give it to the Benefactor and try not to think about it further

Yuwa: room and board to complete her epic on the history of Hope's Peak Academy uninterrupted and all the research she could find on cult deprogramming

Reika: the Golden Jubilee, and a wife

Hikari: all-expenses-paid travel around the world to see every extant bird species

Veritas: a lifetime supply of non-perishable food items and a vault to keep them in, as well as to keep the money in itself (he demanded the winnings in gold bullion)

Teisuke: a massive amount of fireworks, like you have not seen nor can comprehend the sheer amount of fireworks this dude wants. also an army of holy people from every religion on retainer at all times

and, as a bonus...

Usami: a new magic spear, since she lost her old one a few centuries ago (sad bunny face)

[a-wonderful-danganronpa]

[NO SPOILERS]

had a bit of time, so touched her up a bit and defined her hair a little better. i'll let this sit for a bit while i work on others.

and of course, the (cw: Danganronpa blood) version again:

🩸 DESIGN: Wisteria Ito, face concept 1

[NO SPOILERS]

"No offense taken, baby girl. <hic> We all face death some day, don't we?"

design work recommences with this very rough beta face for the Perfumist Wonder, Wisteria Ito!

god, where to start with her. i've spoken a little about her before, but that barely scratches the surface. she's a woman of mystery from the moment you meet her: there's rumors that she's a witch, that she's a cannibal, that she seduces and controls men and women with scents of various kinds...

what is apparent is that she has some Very Disgusting Disease. she constantly vomits, hiccups, falls asleep in the middle of class trials, and bleeds from ears, eyes, nose, mouth, etcetera. but Kaito she is not, as she'll tell you flatly that she is dying. of what, she doesn't clarify. whatever it is, it doesn't seem to bother her.

nor does it stop her from wanting to spend her (apparent?) last moments having a "good time." Monokuma be damned, she's here for elegant fun: fucking and feasting and the Monastery's famous wine, much to the chagrin of Six. who, uh, seems to know her from before their school days...?

regardless, she wants everyone to remain calm. if only to avoid a headache while she bleeds to death in a corner somewhere, romantically, tragically, beautifully.

under the cut is a bloodied Wisteria (cw: Danganronpa blood) for your imagination.
