ATEEZ x Harry Potter Universe Masterlist

This is my take on what I think Ateez would be like in the HP universe. My little safe space since I'm back in my HP era and Ateez had their 3rd Japanese comeback.

Although I've been a casual reader for many unholy years, this is my first attempt at fanfiction. (Please bear with me, I swear I have some good ideas).

I post these on AO3 as well! (https://archiveofourown.org/works/54307042/chapters/137539711)

There will be updates to this post as my writing progresses!

Houses:

Gryffindor - Jung Wooyoung, Choi Jongho

Slytherin - Kim Hongjoong, Choi San

Ravenclaw - Park Seonghwa, Kang Yeosang

Hufflepuff - Jeong Yunho, Song Mingi

Student's introductions!

Who Was I Trying To Be?

Park Seonghwa

A student who goes relatively unnoticed among the new first years, but who is a legend to anyone who's ever crossed paths with him. With Music as his extracurricular passion, he weaves spells through enchanting notes, leaving a musical charm in the air. Enthralled by the cosmic wonders, Astronomy is his stellar domain, while Transfiguration becomes a stage for his enchanting transformations.

He might have been sorted into Slytherin for his ambition and determination if it weren't for his brains and creativity in music. He couldn't be happier to be sorted into Ravenclaw. After all, being in Slytherin would mean spending more time with Kim Hongjoong. Which is not such a terrible scenario when you look at it from a certain perspective. Except, for Seonghwa, it is. The cunning Slytherin boy may be adored and praised by all the students and professors. But Seonghwa can see right through him. He knows the real Kim Hongjoong, the one who is hiding behind a wall of hypocrisy, deceit, and deception.

I Used To Hear A Simple Song

Kim Hongjoong

Charismatic and popular with students and professors alike, Hongjoong effortlessly walks the fine line between breaking the rules and avoiding the consequences.

In the world of magic, his favourite subjects - Astronomy, Defence Against the Dark Arts and the Study of Ancient Runes - reveal a wizard of many talents. Hongjoong's mastery of both offensive and defensive spells makes him a formidable force in Defence Against the Dark Arts, a reputation he proudly flaunts.

Adding a harmonious twist to his magical journey, music serves as Hongjoong's extracurricular escape. But amid his academic pursuits, an unexpected connection emerges. Seonghwa, the Ravenclaw scholar, harbors an inexplicable dislike for Hongjoong. In response, the Slytherin captain amuses himself by flirting playfully, turning the tension into a game of teasing. He continues to tease him every chance he gets. "You're so obsessed with me and my business.. do you have a crush on me, Cottonhead?" However, underneath the banter lies an underlying fear that Seonghwa might reveal Hongjoong's well-guarded secret.

When Will You Learn?

Jeong Yunho

Jeong Yunho, the spirited Hufflepuff whose green thumb in Herbology and fascination with History of Magic paint a vivid portrait of his academic life. As housemates and best friends with Song Mingi, their camaraderie echoes through the Hufflepuff common room.

As a half-blood wizard raised in the enchantment of magic, Yunho's intrigues extend beyond the wizarding world. His love for Muggle Studies opens a door to the mysteries of Muggle life and inspires him to pick up a paintbrush in his spare time. In the realm of art, Yunho finds solace and inspiration by attending extra-curricular Art classes with his Gryffindor friend Jongho.

Despite Yunho's endearing positivity, a subtle undercurrent of forced cheerfulness raises questions. Mingi senses a veil over Yunho's happiness, a facade that conceals potential trauma. Just as secrets linger in the halls of Hogwarts, Jeong Yunho's painted smile hides depths that only time may unveil.

Clever As A Devil And Twice As Pretty

Kang Yeosang

Kang Yeosang, the clever and mischievous Ravenclaw whose talent for Potions and Charms has earned him the praise of his professors. Yeosang's mastery of potions goes beyond the textbook, modifying recipes for his own ingenious purposes.

Along with his housemate Seonghwa, they are known as "the walking statues" for their dazzling looks, but Yeosang's appearance belies his true nature. Seemingly shy and innocent, he harbours a secret attraction to strong, muscular men, finding Jongho's strength in particular irresistible.

Encounters with Jongho in the school library and in their shared Potions and Charms class become the setting for Yeosang's subtle provocations. Beneath the facade of innocence lies a cheeky bastard with a sharp tongue that he only reveals to those he trusts - Seonghwa, Jongho, and Wooyoung. The trio are witnesses to Yeosang's unfiltered thoughts, though other students dismiss Jongho's stories as mere gossip.

As Yeosang weaves a wall of pretended strength and independence, a mystery lingers. Who, or what, will crack the Ravenclaw student's shell and expose the vulnerability beneath?

And Then, The Bastard Winked At Me

Choi San

A reserved Slytherin pureblood, Choi San has a natural brilliance for the wind-focused magic that runs through his veins. Arriving late to Hogwarts and his famous wizarding family surname often precedes him, making him noticeable among his classmates. Despite this, San keeps a low profile. He entrusts himself to a select few, including his cousin Jongho, Care of Magical Creatures classmate Mingi, fellow housemate and quidditch team player Hongjoong, and an unexpected friend, Wooyoung.

Mastery in Charms and Defence Against the Dark Arts is just the tip of the iceberg for San. His knowledge extends beyond the curriculum, leading him to invent his own spells and become a formidable duelist, hinting at sources of practice beyond the Dueling Club. His stress-relieving activities include tending to magical creatures in the Care of Magical Creatures class, where the calming presence of creatures such as Kneazels allows him to relax and spend time with Mingi.

San develops a friendship with Hongjoong and a friendly rivalry with Wooyoung in the realm of Quidditch. The Seekers clashing on the Quidditch pitch becomes a familiar scene, with victory over the Gryffindors adding a hint of satisfaction to San's reserved demeanor. Despite Wooyoung's fiery approach, San secretly appreciates the energetic balance Wooyoung brings to his life.

Choi San is still a mysterious figure in the murmurs of the Hogwarts hallways, his past and skills entwined in the mystery surrounding his ancestry.

A quick peek at San's personal spellbook

How Dare You Insult My Frog?

Song Mingi

Song Mingi, the embodiment of Hufflepuff's famed loyalty, is entwined in the threads of friendship and magical creatures. As Yunho's roommate and childhood confidant, Mingi's heart is a verdant garden, cultivating both leafy greens and the bonds of friendship.

Mingi's personal gardening haven behind the Beasts classroom is a monument to his unwavering love of the enchanted and the natural, and it flourishes with his fondness for magical creatures. Mingi, who finds Yunho's love for Muggle studies inspiring, takes great care of his vegetable patch, with each plant serving as a testament to his meticulous nature.

In Mingi's world, loyalty to inanimate companions is as important as loyalty to friends. His cherished toad, Pocco, is a symbol of quiet companionship, providing a calm contrast to Mingi's own chatty and extroverted personality. Mingi and Pocco take evening walks near the school's boathouse, a tradition that Yunho can't help but find irresistibly endearing.

But Mingi's loyalty shines clearest for his friends, and he holds a special place in his heart for Yunho. From socks and quills to a lunchbox that has remained the same since their first year, the commitment reaches even to the little things in Mingi's life.

Mingi prioritizes listening to others, reaching a compromise, and looking for common ground rather than engaging in conflict. But Mingi's attitude towards Yunho and Pocco shifts, and he becomes willing to go against his morals in order to stand up for the ones he cares about the most.

Are You Flirting Or Starting A Fight?

Jung Wooyoung

Introducing Jung Wooyoung, the vivacious Gryffindor Seeker who embodies confidence and passion. A wizard with a heart as expansive as his daring maneuvers on the Quidditch pitch, Wooyoung's spirit ignites the Gryffindor stands with each thrilling match.

Off the pitch, Wooyoung's companion is Ned, a ginger cat who adds a touch of warmth to his lively personality. When not soaring through the air or studying magical arts, he works as a part-time cashier at Honeydukes, indulging his sweet tooth during shifts.

Wooyoung defies expectations by excelling in the intricate arts of Divination and Transfiguration. These challenging subjects showcase his dedication and intellectual prowess.

Yet Wooyoung's interest is drawn to the mysterious Slytherin, Choi San. Unfazed by his shameless flirtatious remarks, San's lack of interest turns into a powerful magnet that pulls Wooyoung into an interest that develops into a genuine friendship—albeit one laced with unspoken attractions.

But on the Quidditch pitch, their friendship turns into a fierce rivalry. San's skill contrasts with Wooyoung's competitive attitude, and each defeat fuels his will to succeed. The Gryffindor is passionate and short-tempered, and he shows it. Especially when he sees San smirking subtly, acknowledging the Slytherins' victory.

The Smell Of Books Is Eminent

Choi Jongho

Choi Jongho brings an unexpected twist to the Gryffindor stereotype, defying the expectations placed upon him by his prestigious wizarding family. Contrary to the assumptions that came with his famous surname, Jongho embraced the scarlet and gold of Gryffindor over the green and silver of Slytherin. Despite his parent's disapproval, Jongho chose to follow his own path, shattering his family's hopes of raising another Quidditch champion.

Despite his strong build suggesting Quidditch skill, Jongho turns down the offer due to the attraction of Divination, Charms, and Potions. He was bound to conflict with his family because of his academic decisions and lack of interest in the family's obsession with blood purity. Unfazed, Jongho considers severing ties if his family doesn't agree with his chosen path.

Beneath his tough exterior lies an obsession with Yeosang, a particular Ravenclaw. While Jongho may seem uninterested, he is drawn to Yeosang's intriguing aura. Their paths cross in classes and late-night library sessions, offering a challenge that Jongho - who loves challenges - simply cannot refuse.

Even though Jongho may seem intimidating, his outspoken nature belies a passion for the arts known only to a select few, including his classmate Yunho and fellow Art class companions. Rather than flaunting his skills, Jongho prefers to quietly master his artistic pursuits, adding another layer to the Gryffindor who chose to paint his own bright future.

Paris Reacts to Watch Us Work

Akuma Class

Another weekend, another week without any way to watch a new episode of Total Drama.

They all were at the park, sitting there, bored out of their minds. That was until they heard a crash far away behind them. They turned to see an akuma attack from Copycat happening.

Even though Alya was excited and wanted to get great material for her blog and get Ladybug's trust to have her endorse the blog again. But when she realized and remembered that her phone was still confiscated by her parents, her excitement and happiness both went down the drain.

That was until a lava red portal appeared, and there came out Ladybug, and now seeing her new look, it looked like she combined two miraculous, one which was obviously the Ladybug earrings and the black cat ring. And along with Ladybug, was an unfamiliar girl that is dressed in a very odd outfit. They then hear the unfamiliar girl talk aloud in a deep-strong British accent. "Oy! Are you talking about us?" "And who are you?" "Your worst bloody nightmare."

The girl then throws something at Copycat that wraps around the Copycat's waist and holds him tightly. "GET OVER HERE!" the girl yelled, pulling Copycat over to her. She then aimed her hands at Copycat, which froze him into ice. The class looked shocked, surprised, and amazed at the scene they were watching.

However, the whole class was not as shocked as Adrien was when he saw Ladybug using both hers and his miraculous at the same time. And if that wasn't shocking enough, she has a new, different heroine fighting along with her and not having him have his miraculous back and save the day with her and not with some stranger.

After returning everything to normal and Theo returns to a normal Parisian citizen, Ladybug, and the unfamiliar girl does a fist pound, saying something that the class couldn't hear. They tried to head over to Ladybug, but a lot of people beat them to the punch.

"Ladybug! Who is this with you?" "All you mates, can call me Anarchia." The unknown girl, Anarchia, said, introducing herself. "How did you meet Anarchia?" "She was there for me when I was on patrol." "An armed picket-pocketer was spotted, and I quickly caught 'im 'round the same time she showed up." "She was very useful for a lot of other things aside from akuma attacks." Adrien couldn't believe that Ladybug trusted a heroine who might not be from Paris without even telling him and ever getting his consent first. "Is it true that you stopped endorsing the Ladyblog?" "Sadly, yes. Only because of various reasons. One of them is one person claiming that she is my 'best friend', which is not true because I never have any time hanging out with civilians." Alya's eyes widened after hearing that. After hearing those words come out of Ladybug's mouth, it felt like her whole world started to fall apart. However, Alya was not as shocked as Adrien was when Ladybug exposed Lila's lies. 'I thought she was going to let that go. Why can't people see that it doesn't hurt anyone?" He thought. That was until they heard Anarchia talk, "Some cottonheads never understand what the real world works and never fact checks like they are supposed to." hearing that felt like a stab to the gut to both Adrien and Alya. "Not to mention, some bloody cottonheads always lose their minds over what wanker tells them what they want to hear. That, and they never got to wake up and smell the real scent of tea to face reality." A couple of eyes widened in shock hearing that. However, before they can say anything, Anarchia continued, "However, speaking of facing reality, I do recommend this brilliant site and app I have endorsed back in London. It is called Face Reality. Because I have heard they are having some of their best reporters start here in about the next week." Alya's eyes widened upon hearing that. Face Reality was one of the world-known news blog-media industries for children, teens, and young adults. Not to mention her competition for the title of Best Blog-Media in the news world. "Are you kidding me?!" she gawked in disbelief. They all tried to get to Ladybug to see what she was doing with a different heroine. But as soon as they got to the two, the sun was already setting, and Ladybug's earrings started beeping. "Well, I say it is time for us to leave. Good day." Anarchia said, grabbing some keys, pressing one button that summons a black motorcycle, automatically driving to her, and stopping and staying by her side. As Anarchia gets on, she drives off along with Ladybug, as she uses her yo-yo, saying a quick 'Bug out', and the two leave. "Ladybug, wait!"

Unfortunately, it was too late, and the two were gone.

When Monday came around once again, they all heard the rest of the students chattering about the new episode of Total Drama.

"I'm so happy for Marinette!"

"I know, she's now one of them. That's amazing!"

"Her mom and dad must be very proud of her right now."

"Yeah, and her diary box was such a blessing in disguise."

"Yeah, and thank goodness too. Who knows what would've happened if it didn't trap Heather's hand."

"And Harold's music playing was awesome. Sure beats you know who's."

"And the MetaBetas performing there? They were amazing."

"Yeah, especially their hoodies. They look so cool!"

"More like epic if you ask me."

"You should've seen Duncan's face when he saw Marinette onstage."

"Yeah, the guy looked like one of those guys who has his eyes on the girl of his dreams."

"Not to mention the drooling he was doing."

"Honestly, I think Trent would be a perfect match for her."

"Yeah, he snagged an extra muffin for her."

"And he sang a song all about her. And it was actually for her too! So romantic!"

The class groaned and whined about how it was unfair that they got to watch the new episode and they couldn't. Even Adrien thinks it is unfair. Not to mention that Ladybug has his miraculous and has a new partner siding with her. And if that wasn't bad enough, Ladybug exposed Lila in the worst possible way. He knows that when the time comes, he will have his miraculous back and try to make Ladybug see the light and ditch that wannabe partner, Anarchia.

Celebrities + Friends and Family

It was another special weekend for all of the celebrities, friends, and families in Paris, France.

They're all getting together at the hotel, getting ready to watch the new episode of Total Drama. As they were all getting together, they were not even unaware of a familiar blonde ponytail girl getting ready to watch the new episode herself.

Two weeks ago, she noticed a lot of people coming to the hotel very often. At first, both she and her father thought that the people needed a place to stay, but when Chloe started to hear that Marinette was sent to a camp in Muskoka against her will by their classmates, that was where she drew the line. She even gives Adrien a friendship suspension until he learns to grow up and face the real world after demanding the whole truth from him, which causes him to fess up everything to her and Sabrina. Sabrina couldn't even believe it herself after hearing the whole truth from Adrien. And since Chloe was still mad at Adrien for letting Lila get off scot-free without any consequences, she decided to give Sabrina a break from everything and deal with things her way. Sabrina was surprised since this was the first time she saw this new side of Chloe, but Sabrina knew that it was only because of Lila's tactics she took it. However, Sabrina was still surprised about this new side of Chloe. Chloe told her father everything, and he couldn't believe it himself. As a result, he sent out the board of governors and education to investigate College Francois Dupont and sent the students of the school to another school that has the highest security and staff members that will have students full-on under surveillance until then. The mayor and Chloe herself were surprised to know that they were not the only ones who had called the board since a bunch of other concerned students and families were aware of it all as well. And since Sabrina once told the mayor about most of their classmates talking down about some people and some things both in person and online via social media, he not only sent temporary transfer notices to the families, he also sent another notice to all the families about checking on their kids and their electronic devices to see if they're doing anything bad without any of them knowing. 'I can't believe I'm going to say this, but Dupain-Cheng definitely deserves better than all of this. Besides, nobody messes with Dupain-Cheng's life but me! What those losers did was ridiculous. Utterly ridiculous!' she thought to herself with a huff while changing channels to the one that shows Total Drama.

Meanwhile, with everyone else, as they are getting ready to watch the new episode, Luka is talking to Zoe, Mirelle, Aurore, Kagami, Marc, Soqueline, Jessica, Aeon, and Fei about their call with Marinette and her friends in Muskoka. They all talked about how amazing Marinette was doing there and how the campers there were really good friends for her. All except Heather since they now know her true colors. However, they were glad that Lucy was officially the one to put Heather in her place, even if it was with her anger getting the best of her. After their talk, the show finally starts.

"Last time on Total Drama Island, the Killer Bass finally dodged their pathetic losing streak against the Screaming Gophers. There were bruises, tears, risky moves, and dangerous alliances. And in the end, it was Noah, the Know-it-All, who didn't see it coming." "Well, I can understand that he's not a sports person, but he could've shown some spirit or something at least." one of the fame-rising football (soccer) players said, shrugging their shoulders. "Well, everyone has their own opinion and choice of things." another one said. "This week, another challenge will send one more camper on a cruise to Loserville, population...four. Who will sink and who will stay afloat? Find out right now on Total Drama Island."

After watching its usual theme, they watched as they now see Lucy and Marinette on the steps of the Killer Bass cabin, reading, scribbling away on a sketchpad, and listening to music. "There she is! There's my favorite little lady!" Jagged cheered. They then hear someone speak on the radio. "Alright! That was Start Again by Alayah. This next one was from 1995. A love song for the late lucky girl and New Rustale's beloved sweetheart, Luci Grassette. This is Our Perfect Love by Perfection Division in 198.5 EPIC!" "Oh! I love that song!" "I hear it's good." "I haven't heard that in a long time." "Man, I miss hearing Perfection Division." a lot of the celebrities, parents, grandparents, and other adults explained, remembering the song and band. Hearing all of that from the adults got all of the children and teenagers now intrigued about the song and band. They then quiet down as the song starts on the show.

This one's for you, Miss Grassette!

Our love for you is like the most perfect,

Your face reminds us of your gorgeous self,

Together, we are like Vicki and J.D.

Oh darling Luci,

Our beautiful,

Our glamorous,

Our perfect companion to our longing-yearning souls.

Roses are red,

Violets are blue,

We love our perfect times,

But not as much as we love being with you!

Oh darling Luci,

Your eyes are like our favorite candy that will never fail, You're like the most beautiful princess to ever walk New Rustvale

Your loving pretty face,

Your breathtaking soul,

Your gorgeous eyes,

Your glamorous princess being...

How can we look at another when our perfect love is so strong?

We love you Miss Grassette!

"Man, it feels good to hear Perfection Division, their singing, and Our Perfect Love again." "I know, right? It's been years since I heard their songs." "Years? For me, it feels like centuries." "Luci was so lucky to have a song about her." "She was." "That was pretty catchy." "It was, wasn't it?" "I can see why our families love it." "Yeah." Socqueline smiles as they all complimented about the song and band she and her family listened to back at the family store.

"Alright! That was Perfection Division! Can you feel the love? Because I certainly can."

"Yeah, that was a great song," Marinette commented. "Yeah. That Luci girl must've been so lucky to be featured in a song like that." "Yeah...she was." all of the teenagers and children in the room then turn to notice their families and other adults' faces looking down and sad. Some with sad smiles and some with a single tear or two falling from their face and onto the floor. Before any of them ask what happened to Luci Grassette, they hear the guy on the radio talking still. However, the guy talked in a heartbroken, melancholy, and grieving tone. "You know, it's hard to believe that it's been twenty-something years since we lost all the five members of Perfection Division in a horrific hit and run." The teenagers and the children were shocked to hear that. "That's awful." one of the girls said, putting her hand to her heart in a heartbreaking way. "It was," Nadja said mournfully, holding her daughter Manon tightly. Manon felt sorry for the people losing a great boy band and a girl who was a respected member of the community and loved by all, even people from all over the world, along with her (Luci Grassette) older brother. After a moment of silence for the late girl and the late boy band, they all hear Chris McLean talking on the loudspeakers. "All right, campers, enough beauty sleep. Time to show us what you're made of." "Welp, time to get going, Nettie," Lucy said, getting up and closing her book with a 50s diner-themed bookmark in the pages she was in. Marinette nods and gets up from her spot as well. They all then watch as the scene changes from the girls getting up from the steps of the Killer Bass cabin to a stage. "Are we gonna see a musical? I love musicals. Especially, the ones with singing and dancing." Lindsay said, feeling excited. "Um, that's exactly what musicals are, Lindsay." "Marinette, saved you a seat." Trent said, making Marinette and Lucy walk to him and Gwen. "Oh, thank you, Trent," Marinette said happily. Marinette sat down next to him while Lucy sat down next to Gwen, and the two girls started having a conversation about their favorite horror films. The four of them were not even aware of Cody trying to impress the girls but ended up falling on his seat, yet still trying to look cool.

Chris then got everyone's attention and talked to them: "Welcome to our brand-new, deluxe, state-of-the-art outdoor amphitheater. Okay, this week's challenge is a summer camp favorite: a talent contest." "Yes! Awesome," said Owen. They all then see Lucy's eyes widen in surprise. They all looked confused about why she looked surprised until they then watched her confessional. "Well, that was unexpected. I haven't performed in a while since the last tour incident when the MetaBetas and I were performing in a small town. We were finished with our performance and when my friends and I were ready to head into the bus, some people were talking while we were walking. They were talking about, I don't know what, but frankly, I don't even want to know. At least, and as long as it doesn't involve me in any more dramatic situations than it did back in freshman year. But anyway, it sure has been a while performing. I honestly can't remember the last time I performed, really." "Huh, that is weird." "Yeah, I wonder what those people were talking about." "I guess we'll never know." "Yeah, but I do know that it's true that it sure is a while since Lucy and the other MetaBetas performed." "That's right. I think the last concert the girls did was last summer, I believe." Penny said, trying to remember when the last time the MetaBetas performed. After that, they continued watching the show.

"Each team has eight hours to pick their three most talented campers. These three will represent them in the show tonight. Sing, dance, juggle. Anything goes as long as it's legal." Chris explain, signing a 'Got my eyes on you' to Duncan, causing him to snap his fingers with a frown. "I wonder what Duncan was thinking about doing?" "I don't know. I just hope it's nothing bad." "Hope not." Chris continued, "You will be judged by our resident talent scout, former D.J., V.J., and rap legend, grand...Master Chef who will show his approval via the Chef-o-Meter. The team that loses will send one camper home tonight. Good luck." with that, Chris headed off the stage.

After that, they watched as Heather blew a whistle. "Okay, I'm the team captain, so here's how it's going to work," she said until Gwen cut her off. "Wait, who said you were team captain?" "She did. Just now," said Lindsay. "Lindsay, Beth, and I took a vote, and I won." "Threatening them to vote for you isn't exactly democratic." "I'm with the bambina on that," Lucy said, agreeing with Gwen. "You said it, girls." one of the celebrity girls said, crossing her arms. That was until they saw Trent walk over to Marinette, holding a muffin in his hand. "Hey, snagged you an extra muffin." "Oh, thank you," Marinette said. They all smile at that scene until Beth then walks over to them, talking to Marinette and Lucy. "Hey, Lucy, Marinette. Chris was hoping to talk to you about something. He's saying that there's an urgent call from someone." "Oh, jeez. It better not be about Slick and Brutus trying to get all the action figures in stores to find another legendary collectible again. I swear those two just won't knock it off." Lucy said, unamused, as she and Marinette headed over to the location Beth gave them. After they leave, Heather starts talking to Trent. "Trent, you're cool with me leading this project, aren't you?" "Right on. Go for it." Trent said with sarcasm. "Good. Beth, Lindsay, and I will be the judges."

After watching some of them do their special talents, the celebrities, families, and Marinette's friends suddenly heard a crash coming from outside; they all looked to see that it was another Akuma attack happening from none other than Copycat. Again. As they all watch as the akumatized person attacks the city, demanding Ladybug and Chat Noir's arrival and surrender, they notice a lava-red portal appearing. There, they see Ladybug come out of it. They looked surprised to see her come out of a portal that they had never seen before. Not to mention that she has a different look because, from the looks of it, they see that she is using both her miraculous and the black cat miraculous.

They understand that she's using both of them only because she announced once that Chat Noir is permanently retired due to various personal reasons. Of course, a lot of people respect that since someone shared video proof of Chat Noir being incompetent and not saving others in the past akuma attacks, such as the Syren debacle, the second Gigantitan incident where Gigantitan threw Ladybug's Lucky Charm at a room in the Dupain-Cheng bakery, which turned out to be Marinette's bedroom, and the last one where the akumatized person shot some bullets that stopped people and make them freeze like statues, unlike him, Ladybug saved some from getting shot and getting them into safety while he just did nothing but pout and sulk about Ladybug not accepting his love. Looking back, some felt disgusted about themselves for thinking that the two were a cute couple and they were an item. After all of that, Ladybug got the cat miraculous back from Chat Noir and has used it along with her miraculous ever since.

However, the only thing they don't understand is how the portal appeared and why Ladybug was using it. That was until they saw an unfamiliar girl walking out of the portal after Ladybug.

"Who is that?"

"I have never seen this one before?"

"Is she a new partner of Ladybug's?"

"I don't think she has a miraculous on her."

They then quiet down their chatter when they hear the new girl calling out aloud in a deep-toned, strong-British accent. "Oy! Are you talking about us?" "And who are you?" "Your worst bloody nightmare."

The girl then throws something at Copycat that wraps around Copycat's waist and holds him tightly. "GET OVER HERE!" the girl yelled, pulling the Copycat over to her. She then aims her hands at Copycat, which froze him into ice.

Everyone looked shocked, surprised, and amazed at what they were seeing with their very eyes. "Whoa! Did you see that?!" "She stopped the akumatized villain easily and faster than ever!" "That's a new record right there!"

After Ladybug turned everything back to normal, all of the celebrity newscasts, media, and press quickly ran out of the hotel for a quick interview of Ladybug and her new partner. When they got to her, they asked the two a lot of questions. "Ladybug! Who is this with you?" "All you mates, can call me Anarchia." The unknown girl, Anarchia, said, introducing herself to them all. "How did you meet Anarchia?" "She was there for me when I was on patrol." "An armed picket-pocketer was spotted, and I quickly caught 'im 'round the same time she showed up."

"She was very useful for a lot of other things aside from Akuma attacks." they were all very impressed with this new heroine, even when she seemed to be from another country, and whether it was an Akuma attack or not, Anarchia was very useful to stop it. "Is it true that you stopped endorsing the Ladyblog?" "Sadly, yes. Only because of various reasons. One of them is one person claiming that she is my 'best friend', which is not true because I never have any time hanging out with civilians." hearing that was very understandable. Knowing that Ladybug would never have time for anything else. Mr. Ramier and others who were having their troubles, maybe, but a civilian saying that they are best friends, which is not even true, and possibly putting a target on themselves without even knowing, that was another story that was a whole other bad level. Anarchia then tsks, saying, "Some cottonheads never understand what the real world works and never fact checks like they are supposed to." 'Ain't that the truth.' one of the news interns thought. "Not to mention, some bloody cottonheads always lose their minds over what wanker tells them what they want to hear. That, and they never got to wake up and smell the real scent of tea to face reality." 'You said it, Anarchia.' another one thought to himself. 'Tell it, girl.' the third one thought to herself. "However, speaking of facing reality, I do recommend this brilliant site and app I have endorsed back in London. It is called Face Reality. Because I have heard they are having some of their best reporters start here in about the next week." they were all intrigued with the recommendation Anarchia told them. They continued with the questioning with Ladybug and Anarchia until sunset, and Ladybug's earrings started beeping. "Well, I say it is time for us to leave. Good day." Anarchia said, grabbing some keys, pressing one button that summons a black motorcycle, automatically driving to her, and stopping and staying by her side. As Anarchia gets on, she drives off along with Ladybug, as she uses her yo-yo, saying a quick 'Bug out', and the two leave. The newscasts, media, and press also left, happy that they had an interview with Ladybug and her new partner Anarchia, not even aware of some people running and stopping behind them.

As they all head back into the room, satisfied with their interview with the two heroines, the show was still on. However, they missed almost half of the show. "What did we miss?" one of the intern reporters asked. "Not much, really. Although I think the Killer Bass are going to lose this one for sure." one of the wunderkind rappers said, crossing their arms. They then see that Trent is next. "This one goes out to someone special here at camp. Last name initials, D and C." everyone's eyes widened in surprise hearing that. Even though they can tell that most of the campers on the show are more focused on winning the challenge, the celebrities, families, and Marinette's friends know who Trent is talking about. Luka and Kagami could tell that Gwen knew about it as well after seeing her smile proudly at him while crossing her arms. After hearing the song, they were all amazed. They were so amazed that they even applauded Trent along with the other campers. They all then decided to take a quick snack break and continue watching the show later. As they snack down, they talk about Trent's song for Marinette.

"That song was amazing."

"Yeah, Trent did wonderful there."

"That was so sweet of him singing a song for Marinette."

"Marinette must be really lucky by now."

"Yeah, and I wonder what's taking her and Lucy so long though."

"I don't know. They're sure taking a while with that phone call."

"Maybe it is about those two Slick and Brutus guys and the action figures."

"Oh boy. I can't imagine what that phone call is like right about now."

"It's probably for the best we don't wanna know."

"Agreed."

After their opinion and the snack break, they continued watching the show.

"Welcome back! Okay, so in a strange turn of events, Bridgette's chunk-blowing test registered two thumbs up by Grandmaster Chef." "Bridgette's what blowing?" "I think it's best to leave that unquestionable." "But it's not enough to pull ahead of the Screaming Gophers who hold the lead with Trent's love song. So without further delay, here she is for the leaders...Heather." when Heather appears, she explains that she's going to read something. And then, reveals a box that is holding a book. Tom and Sabine's eyes widened when they realized what that book really was... "THAT'S MARINETTE'S DIARY!" they all gasped in shock and fear, worried that Heather might read something humiliating from Marinette's diary. However, as Heather places her hand on the diary, the box quickly closed in a milisecond, trapping her hand inside along with the said diary. And when it did, Heather started screaming. Even though they should wince from Heather's hand getting stuck, Gwen, the celebrities, families, and Marinette's friends all sigh in relief, knowing that Marinette's secrets are safe from Heather's scheming grasp. They all then watch Marinette's and Lucy's confessionals.

"Probably should've warned the girls that I have a box for my diary. But in this case, I'm glad I brought the box with me." "Glad you did, Marinette," Socqueline said, with Luka, Fei, Zoe, Kagami, and Tomoe nodding in agreement. "I guess one of them must've told her what happened while she and Lucy were having that phone call." one of the gaming celebrities guessed. "See, that's exactly why I don't bring a diary around me anymore. What Heather did, that's the reason." "I can't imagine what happened."

"Alright, it's down to the final act of the night," Chris announced. "Can Geoff and his rad stunts turn it around?...I seriously doubt it. Let's find out." "Why would he think that?" Just then, they see Geoff jump and break his skateboard. "Oh, that's why." "Now what? We have to send someone out there, or we're going to lose this." Bridgette said. They then watch as Marinette walks in. "There she is!" "Boy, that must've been a really long phone call." "Hey, guys." "Marinette! Thank goodness you're here. You and Lucy got to help us!" Bridgette said. "Katie and Sadie are covered in barf." "That only leaves Tyler, Duncan, or Harold. We already know Tyler stinks. What can Duncan do again?" "Carve a picture of his own skull into a tree?" "Oh, that's what Chris was talking about." a famous nature activist said, now understanding. "How the heck is going to do so in a stage when the trees are planted to the ground?" one of the wunderkinder questioned, looking not surprised. "What are we going to do?" Courtney asked, panicking. Geoff then noticed. "Wait, where's Marinette?" Bridgette and Courtney now noticed that he was right that Marinette wasn't there anymore. "Where did she go?" Just then, they all hear music playing. They watched Bridgette and Courtney look to see Harold start playing some music with his keyboard. The spotlights then shine on four girls, which turn out to be Marinette, Lucy, and the two girls of the MetaBetas, Angie and Malviña. Who are otherwise known as Miss Maleficent and Queen Red Hood. Everyone looked shocked and surprised to see them onstage. That was when the girls started singing.

Lucy: Never gets old no matter how much I'm told I'm amazing

Angie: You're amazing

Lucy: It's hard to get tired when I'm always on fire I'm blazing

Angie: Ooh, you're blazing

Malviña: All my greatness. It doesn't come for free. All my talent. It doesn't grow on trees. Take a breather. They'll take it all away.

Marinette: If the top is where you wanna stay

All Four: You gotta work hard. To make it look easy. You gotta live fast. To keep making that money. If you want to be as famous as me. You gotta work, gotta work, gotta work. Watch me work.

Everyone looked surprised and amazed, seeing Marinette perform with the MetaBetas, while the campers, too, looked surprised. Their singing and dancing were all in sync. They were even surprised with their outfits. They were wearing hoodies in their colors. Angie in purple, Malviña in black, Lucy in navy blue, and Marinette in pink. On the back of their hoodies have their logos in silver, and their stage names in rhinestones.

Angie: Haters want to be me or be with me yeah, they're fr-fr-fr-freaking

Lucy: Yeah, they're freaking

Angie: I just keep on working, lurking, smirking when they think that I'm peaking

Lucy: Never peaking, yeah

Malviña: All my greatness. It doesn't come for free. All my talent. It doesn't grow on trees. Take a breather. They'll take it all away.

Marinette: If the top is where you wanna stay

All four: You gotta work hard. To make it look easy. You gotta live fast. To keep making that money. If you want to be as famous as me. You gotta work, gotta work, gotta work. Watch me work.

After they ended their performance with a pose of their choice, there was a quick pause in the audience in front of them until the campers all started to cheer for their performance. Everyone else also cheered and applauded the five for their outstanding performance.

Chris then walks up to them, clapping. "Wicked music playing, dude. And MetaBetas, a very outstanding performance." "Hey, it's what we do." Malviña said, "And a perfect way to help endorse Total Drama." Angie added. "Especially with our newest member of the MetaBetas. Our very own Knitting Fairy." Lucy happily announced, wrapping an arm around Marinette. Marinette giggles as she waves to the others, causing them to cheer more about Marinette now being a new member of the idol group. Everyone cheered as well. "Alright, Marinette!" "Our little girl, a new member of an idol group!" "That's my Marinetta!" Marinette's friends cheered, feeling very happy for her. "And we would like to thank Harold for taking part in aiding our performance." Harold smiled and nodded to the girls as thanks and a way of saying 'happy to help.' "Congratulations, Marinette, for now being in their group. And check it out. Grandmaster Chef has declared his winner. Even though they held the lead, the Screaming Gophers have been trampled by the Killer Bass."

After a while of cheering, they all headed home for the night, still feeling happy for the girl for both winning the challenge for the team and being a new member of the MetaBetas. Meanwhile, in her bedroom, Chloe still watches the show, not surprised to know that Heather got some of the campers to vote off Justin. But she then watches Gwen's confessional. "If that evil little cow thinks she's getting away with this scot-free, she has another thing coming." Chloe then watches as Gwen knocks on the guys' side of the Killer Bass door. Harold answers, and Gwen asks him, "Did you say you brought a red ant farm with you?" "Yes." After that, while everyone was asleep, Heather ran out of the Screaming Gophers cabin, covered in red ants, screaming and trying to get them off of her. Chloe then laughs at Heather while she trips and falls. "Serves you right, Heather! Nobody messes with Dupain-Cheng but me!" she said.

??? & ???

The two of them watch as Lucy squints her eyes, trying to sleep while Heather is still screaming. "Man, I thought I was done with this when I was at that sleepover with Kit, Mills, Jade-Jade, and Sonya." she whisper-mumbled while putting her pillow over her head in order to drown the noise. "I can never forget the time she ranted on about what they did." one of them said, remembering the times she ranted. The second one nodded as they looked at the tablet that showed the account of Lucy and the rest of the MetaBetas. "At least we now know how to get in touch with her. Call the number. With this, we will finally get to her." "Of course."

To my favorite Protagonist

While I cannot say I ever expected to speak with you again, I do feel like now with everything so settled I should tie up this little loose end.

I will not waste our time with petty and hollow apologies, we both know I regret nothing. Except that is a bit untrue, I’ve heard nearly all the Warriors have entered Foundation custody, are they being treated well? I wish I could have brought them all with me, but alas I barely had the strength to help Monaca heal once forced to be on the move. How truly unlucky!

Speaking of things I’ve heard from little birdies, Towa City is attempting to stay independent isn’t it? I was quite surprised to hear such a rather bold stance from you Miss Komaru. It’s truly beautiful how your hope has grown since we first met. No longer the scared sheep of a child, you’ve truly blossomed into quite the shepherd of and beacon of light for all the scared and talentless. Truly you are the proof that even one so ordinary and basic as you were can become so much more. 

I cannot wait to see just how the destitute will cling to your legacy in hopes it may uplift them into meaning and purpose as well. Perhaps a few may even be able to find a purpose and bring Hope to this world that previously would have been impossible for them. The despair of the ones that failed before them letting them reach new heights thought impossible!

I’m truly so glad to see the Hope that came from the fall of the city is already proving to be so beautiful. 

Do please contact me back soon, we have much to discuss and I await to hear more about the current state of the Warriors. 

Best,

Nagito Komaeda, previously known as Servant

To Servant(?)

Uh, how did you get my email? This isn’t even my work email! You really are as creepy as ever… So your real name is Komaeda? That’s nice to know I suppose. I’m not sure where you are getting your information but you are correct. The Warriors, excluding Monaca, were originally taken into Foundation custody while Towa City is attempting to become a neutral equal ground to all factions. It’s been a lot of work but I doubt you want to hear about that. So, yeah! Everything’s fine! All loose ends fixed! No need to worry! Just go back to doing, uh, whatever you enjoy doing!

From,

Warriors Orochi: The Recollective Redux Part 2.1: Shu Story A

In the initial conflict with Orochi, the Shu kingdom was defeated among others, with one of its officers, Zhao Yun, being held in Ueda Castle. This is the beginning of the story…

Initial characters: Zhao Yun, Xingcai, Yoshihiro Shimazu

Chapter 1: Battle of Ueda Castle 上田城の戦い

Coalition Army and Zuo Ci Army vs. Orochi Army Allied characters: Zhao Yun, Xingcai, Yoshihiro Shimazu Third-party characters: Zuo Ci, Zhang Bao, Ginchiyo Tachibana, Toyohisa Shimazu Enemy characters: Cao Ren, Diamondback, Deng Ai, Zhong Hui, Yue Jin, Diaochan, Zhang He

Unlocked characters: Zhang Bao, Ginchiyo Tachibana, Toyohisa Shimazu

In a cell inside Ueda Castle, Zhao Yun is losing hope, when Zuo Ci arrived with Xingcai and Yoshihiro Shimazu, bringing news that Liu Bei is still alive. Zuo Ci helps Zhao Yun escape, then tells him to head towards the west towards the escape point.

As they pass the path leading to where Zhang Bao is being held prisoner, Xingcai will inform Zhao Yun about this. Rescuing him is optional; if you rescue him, he will join Zuo Ci in distracting the Orochi Army, but even if you don’t rescue him (or if he is defeated), he will still join you at the end of the battle, having managed to find the group.

Mamushi is moved next to Cottonhead outside the northwestern garrison and thus Ginchiyo won’t appear until you head there to trigger his line.

Zhong Hui is in the east of the battlefield. He and Deng Ai will have lines when Zuo Ci appears to engage Cao Ren.

Toyohisa Shimazu will appear to engage Yue Jin when you approach the southwestern garrison. Diaochan is the other officer that appears alongside Yue Jin, with Xing Daorong moved to the northeast of the battlefield.

The player can defeat Cao Ren or Zhang He to escape the battlefield.

Chapter 2: Battle of Hasedō 長谷堂の戦い

Coalition Army and Yueying Army vs. Orochi Army Allied characters: Zhao Yun, Zhang Bao, Toyohisa Shimazu Third-party characters: Yueying, Magoichi Saika Enemy characters: Yoshitsugu Ōtani, Da Ji, Pang De, Zhuge Liang, Guan Suo, Kojūrō Katakura, Mitsunari Ishida

Unlocked characters: Yueying, Magoichi Saika

Spotting Yueying captured by the Orochi Army, Zhao Yun and others head to her assistance. On the way, they meet Magoichi Saika, who also intends on rescuing Yueying.

Due to Guan Suo being upgraded to be a playable character, he will have some lines with Zhao Yun when he approaches him in the forest, but he will not reveal who is commanding him.

Chapter 3: Battle of Chengdu 成都の戦い

Coalition Army and Wei Yan Army vs. Yuan Shao Army → Da Ji Army Allied characters: Zhao Yun, Magoichi Saika, Yueying Third-party characters: Wei Yan, Xu Shu, Guan Yinping, Bao Sanniang Enemy characters: Yuan Shao, Yukimura Sanada, Nobuyuki Sanada, Da Ji

Unlocked characters: Wei Yan, Yukimura Sanada, Nobuyuki Sanada, Xu Shu, Guan Yinping, Bao Sanniang

When asked of Liu Bei’s whereabouts, Magoichi mentions a girl seeing him in Chengdu. Zhao Yun immediately heads there, but they find that Chengdu is being attacked by Yuan Shao and Yukimura Sanada, tricked into thinking that the soldiers there were the spirits of the dead revived by Orochi.

Xu Shu, Guan Yinping and Bao Sanniang replace generic officers Wu Lan, Lei Tong and Liao Hua in Chengdu Castle alongside Wei Yan.

After Yukimura and Nobuyuki are defeated, they will join the Coalition Army.

Chapter 4: Battle of Nanzhong 南中の戦い (uses DW5 Conquest of Nanzhong map)

Coalition Army and Meng Huo Army vs. Orochi Army Allied characters: Zhao Yun, Magoichi Saika Third-party characters: Meng Huo, Zhurong Enemy characters: Sima Yi, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Chen Gong, Diamondback, Sima Shi, Sima Zhao, Zhang Chunhua, Wang Yuanji, Jia Chong

Unlocked characters: Meng Huo, Zhurong

Zhao Yun’s Coalition Army chases Da Ji south to the lands of Nanzhong, where Meng Huo and his army managed to maintain its independence from Orochi. However, Sima Yi was about to unleash a plan to wipe out the Nanman tribes.

In addition to Wei officers Zhang Liao and Xu Huang, Sima Yi’s family, Jia Chong and Chen Gong also appear in this battle.

In the aftermath, Meng Huo and the Nanman army join Zhao Yun’s coalition. Magoichi hears that “someone big” is being held in Wu.

Chapter 5: Battle of Wujun 呉郡の戦い

Coalition Army (and Yuan Shao Troop) vs. Orochi Army Allied characters: Ship Captain, Zhao Yun, Yukimura Sanada Third-party characters: Yuan Shao Enemy characters: Dong Zhuo, Lu Lingqi, Zhuge Liang, Fa Zheng, Sun Quan, Zhou Tai, Lianshi

Unlocked characters: Yuan Shao

After gaining intelligence that Liu Bei was being held in Xindi Castle, Zhao Yun and his men head to the Wu territories to find him. The Wu Army is being led by Sun Quan, serving under Orochi.

Lu Lingqi appears alongside Dong Min in the southeastern garrison where you pass through to defeat Zhuge Liang, who also needs to be defeated alongside Sun Quan.

Lianshi will appear alongside Sun Quan and Zhou Tai.

In the aftermath, Yuan Shao decides to join Zhao Yun and his army. He also knows where Liu Bei is being held, but he forgets where it is.

Chapter 6: Battle of Hulao Gate 虎牢関の戦い

Coalition Army and Sun Ce Army vs. Orochi Army Allied characters: Zhao Yun Third-party characters: Sun Ce, Zhou Yu, Naotora Ii, Han Dang Enemy characters: Sima Yi, Cao Ren, Diaochan, Sima Shi, Zhang Chunhua, Deng Ai, Zhong Hui, Kotarō Fūma

Struggling to understand Zhuge Liang’s actions, Zhao Yun arrives at Hulao Gate, where Sun Ce is being attacked by Sima Yi of the Orochi Army. Zhao Yun advances to save him.

In this battle, Zhang Chunhua replaces Guo Huai, Sima Shi replaces the generic Sima Zhao and two generic officers will replace Xiahou Ba in the centre. In the southwest just past where Diaochan is, Deng Ai, Zhong Hui and a generic officer will be stationed there. There was also a messenger at the enemy main camp who doesn’t seem to serve any purpose other than to give 600 EXP when defeated. He is removed in this version.

In Sun Ce’s forces, Naotora Ii appears in place of Liu Gui (Han) and Han Dang replaces Zhu Ran for the execution of the fire attack.

After the battle, Sun Ce thanks Zhao Yun for his help, but says that he has to rescue his father at Ōsaka Castle. This triggers Yuan Shao’s memory, who says that Liu Bei is being held in Edo Castle.

Chapter 7: Battle of Edo Castle 江戸城の戦い

Coalition Army and Sun Ce Army vs. Orochi Army Allied characters: Zhao Yun, Bao Sanniang, Guan Yinping, Nobuyuki Sanada, Xu Shu Third-party characters: Sun Ce, Naomasa Ii Enemy characters: Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Diamondback, Fa Zheng, Guan Xing, Guan Suo, Liu Shan, Zhuge Liang, Da Ji

Unlocked characters: Zhuge Liang, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Liu Shan, Guan Xing, Guan Suo, Fa Zheng

Zhao Yun quickly arrives at Edo Castle to rescue Liu Bei, following Yuan Shao’s recollections. Zhao Yun, Bao Sanniang and Zhang Bao head for the castle keep while Nobuyuki Sanada and Xu Shu act as bait to the enemy from the southern gate to the eastern gate.

In the southwest, Bao Sanniang appears in place of Zhang Bao and Guan Yinping appears in place of Wang Ping. Zhang Bao will have encounter lines with Zhang Fei and Guan Xing when you play as him. In the south, Xu Shu appears in place of Matabei Gotō, with Matabei’s lines being said by Nobuyuki Sanada in this battle.

Fa Zheng and Ma Su swap places in this battle, with Fa Zheng being in the keep while Ma Su is inside the western gate of Edo Castle.

Upon reaching the top floor of the main keep, there is an event with Liu Shan, Guan Xing and Guan Suo, who replace Shigezane Date, Dōkyū Yamagami and Shigenaga Honjō as the ambush unit there.

After Da Ji and Zhuge Liang are defeated, Zhuge Liang initially helps her escape, but then he traps her. Zhuge Liang reveals that he was waiting for Da Ji to drop her guard since she knows where Liu Bei is being held.

Sun Ce and Zhao Yun farewell each other, deciding that they will defeat Orochi with their own comrades. All the Shu officers in the battle join Zhao Yun and Zhuge Liang in defeating Orochi and rescuing Liu Bei.

Chapter 8: Battle of Koshi Castle 古志城の戦い

Coalition Army vs. Orochi Army Allied characters: Liu Shan, Zhuge Liang, Zhao Yun, Zhang Bao Enemy characters: Orochi, Da Ji, Lu Bu, Keiji Maeda, Diamondback

Unlocked characters: Liu Bei

Some variations have been made to the Chapter 8 Koshi Castle battles. In each faction’s version, they will fight one of Orochi’s main generals with the exception of Da Ji and Lu Bu, who will appear in each version. In this version of the battle, that general will be Keiji Maeda.

Liu Shan is added to this battle and is also one of the defeat conditions alongside Zhuge Liang.

After Orochi’s defeat, Liu Bei is freed and everyone goes to greet him.

Hot Take Tuesday:

Some may consider this brain dead but I think its a little misguided to always be so analytical of the Beatles relationship with each other and with others that they were close to. Everyone seems to want every detail of everything and I'm like, do we even have the right to know? John, Paul, George, and Ringo, as well as anyone close to them had different interpretation of all events. There is no analysis or insight anyone on tumblr with their tertiary knowledge will be able to make that is an actual revelation to their dynamic. People can project and extrapolate as much as they want but it will always miss the mark. And thats ok because singular truths unswayed by bias and opinion will never exist in reality. Its fun to investigate but I think it will always fall short, and personally I'm okay with that.

I don’t think this is brain dead. I think you’re right that there is no objective truth that we will be able to find because we weren’t there and can’t know what people were feeling or thinking. I think the goal is to get as close as possible to that truth with the evidence that we have. As for “do we even have a right to know?” this is the catch for every public figure ever, right? Like at what point do the people stop being people and become puzzle pieces to fit together the story in our minds? It’s subjective and different for everyone, and more complicated because some of the principal figures are still alive and active. My answer would I guess be that I don’t think we have a right to know any of it, but it’s also not wrong to want to know and to try to find out within reasonable boundaries.

i dont think its exactly hard to break komaeda (like breaking him is easy, it's the process that isnt), it's more of the fact that he's in denial is what makes it so difficult, like instinctively he knows, he's smart, he knows his coping isn't exactly good but it's the only mechanism that he can do and he's stuck with it so now he doesn't realize there's other options.

so step one is just to build trust and a support network. give the guy a constant. an anchor. which is hard because of his luck but he needs something, needs to know there is something that he can believe will stay, that wont ever change and go away, by like, dying. this is just the first step, the crutch that he needs, of course this wont work in the long run but for now, he needs to learn that he can rely on such things until he's able to be independent again but in a more healthy way.

step two. you have to tell it to him straight. slowly, with facts, with evidence. never falter. never be swayed by his own words. you have to tell him that, "the world isn't fair to you. it's never been fair. you don't need to excuse the bad things thats happened to you." its going to hurt, this is why step one is important, he is going to break here, you need to be there to help catch the falling pieces of him.

step three. he's going to try and mend himself back together and no doubt, it's going to be the same methods he's used. don't let him do it. give him a better way to fix the cracks. he's going to say it isn't worth it but it is. keep telling him it is. there is nothing wrong with being broken, there's nothing wrong with needing to be fixed and healed.

step four. he's inevitably going to relapse, he's went for years using the same unhealthy coping mechanism, it's going to be difficult but you need to be there to stop him. oughghg the hard part comes with making him believe that he's worth something after this.

step five. honestly, if all goes well and things start looking up, expect things to go wrong. murphy's law and all that, komaeda's luck wont just go away, preparee for it to throw a wrench in your plans. expect any sunny day to come with rain. prepare for it. and if you can't prepare for it, then make sure the cottonhead doesn't blame himself, he's going to twist it and you have to make sure he knows that you don't think it's his fault.

these are just general steps, they're a bit interchangeable but gods have i thought about it a lot. he's going to be frustrating but you just need to be a bit stubborn

You really have thought about it, this is a really well put together plan
