can i have some enogiri headcanon?

Enogiri is a ship I always have to think hard about making headcanons for, because unless prompted, I always think about them less in the sense of "a potential relationship with two fully realized characters" and more "I have dropped these two lab rats in a contained area and occasionally throw in a murder implement to see how they react (it's with murder)"

While I don't really subscribe to the idea that Licorne is Junko in disguise, I do think the contrast between Licorne and Kyoko's methods for solving mysteries really highlights some potentially interesting things about the Junko/Kyoko dynamic. Not just Kyoko but detectives in general investigate a crime after the fact, looking into the past. On the other hand, Licorne's detective style of predicting crimes before they occur and Junko's Ultimate Analyst ability are both directed very squarely towards the future, to the point of being almost supernaturally predictive. That contrast slots exactly into their roles in THH by nature of being support/antagonist of a mystery game, with Kyoko taking the lead on discovering what happened in the school vs Junko pushing the students to instead think about how to get out in the future. It's a narrative thread I think you can really futz with.

(Medical horror TW)I think when Kyoko said "what have you done with my body," she was not just talking about amnesia. Junko used Mikan to perform real, invasive surgery while she was unconscious, potentially leaving her with only partially functional use of a limb or with only one lung. Partially it would limit Kyoko's ability to do the athleticism for some of her more intense detective work (thus why we never see her imitating Yui's Six Foot Vertical Leaps). But mostly? I think Junko would just think it's funny. Watching Kyoko despair over sudden chronic pain is exactly the sort of shits and giggles that gets Junko off. She would keep the lung in her control room to fondly look upon. No one is doing toxic yuri quite like Junko Enoshima.

These two absolutely make each other worse, BTW. There's no world where Kyoko and Junko save each other unless a third party is also involved, and even then, it's more likely that anyone they bring in to help will just be dragged down alongside them. Junko makes love notes using entrails and sends Kyoko gifts in the form of tongues she's ripped from her victims' mouths. Kyoko is more interested in investigating why she picked this victim and how exactly she destroyed them than in stopping her from killing the next. They encourage each others worst, most gorey instincts. Sometimes you need a f/f ship where one of them canonically gouges someone's eyes out with a spoon, y'know?
