the "milgram's turn to die" WIP sounds interesting

I'm picking a Danganrompa vibe from the name

Ooh! I like this one! I previously posted a snippet here, along with various other WIPs at the time.

Danganronpa vibe, indeed. This WIP is actually based on a game called "Your Turn To Die" ("Kimi ga shine"), which gets compared to Danganronpa quite a bit.

"Milgram's Turn To Die" is an ongoing series I have on AO3, written out of order. The "first" installment was "You Thwarted Their Destiny", which jumps straight to the end of the second act. Amane is going to die unless you sacrifice the entire cast for her! Would you save her? (You can see where that came from.)

The next installment was "Hide and Seek", in which Fuuta and Mahiru teamed up to complete a minigame but got their canon injuries in the process.

This one takes us all the way back to where it began. The snippet below alludes to the first minigame, which is in the first half hour of gameplay or so. But this is just the beginning of this work. The end product will bring up information from later in the game.

Aaaaah, I had to improvise with Mahiru's segment given how vague everything is. First of all, what is her boyfriend's name??? Milgram, please tell us!

(571 words. As typical for Amane and Mahiru's stories, cw for implied child abuse and attempted suicide)

-

Muu woke up to a brightly lit lamp in her face. What…? Why was she lying on her back? Where was she? The last thing she remembered was chasing after Rei with a boxcutter in hand. Boxcutter… hand… There was something in her right hand, and it wasn’t a boxcutter. She brought it up to her face, quickly finding that she could only move the one hand. Her other hand was strapped down. For that matter, she couldn’t lift her head or her legs.

Back to the object in her hand… It was a phone, and it wasn’t hers.

“What… is this…” she muttered.

At the same time, a familiar voice said the same thing.

“Who’s there?” Muu called out. “What’s going on? Why can’t I move?”

And the other person echoed her fears. Wait, she recognized that voice. It was the last voice she remembered hearing.

“Rei-chan? Is that-”

“Oh. It’s you.”

-

When Amane arrived home, with her improvised weapon poised for the kill, she did not expect to find her mother already passed out on the floor.

And she did not expect to be knocked unconscious for the second day in a row.

She wasn’t sure what to make of this scene. Was it like those dentist offices she read about in books? Did they really strap down the patients like this?

Wait, she could move her right hand. A weight rested on it, but it was no big effort to lift it so she could see. A smartphone… She had seen people carrying these things around, but nobody in her community was allowed to have one.

Was this some sort of test? She wasn’t sure what she was supposed to do. Turn it on? She could get in trouble for using forbidden devices. Cry out for help? She could get in trouble for speaking out of turn. Just sit there and wait? That was all she was ever allowed to do.

“Amane? Is that you?”

That was undoubtedly her mother’s voice. She ought to respond, but she didn’t want to.

-

When Mahiru saw the note her boyfriend left behind, she knew she had to act quickly. She ran to the car. She slammed the gas pedal. She ran into the forest, calling his name.

It was dark. It was all dark. 

And then it was blindingly bright.

She couldn’t move.

What happened? Did she get into an accident? Did someone find her passed out in the woods? Was she too late to find her boyfriend?

She tried moving again. Her right hand was perfectly mobile, but only that hand. She brought it up to her temple and felt a thick strap wrapped around it.

“Hello? What’s going on?” She felt around some more and found that the rest of her limbs were strapped down as well. “Hello? Is somebody-”

“Mahiru?” 

She knew that voice. “Ren! Is that you? Are you really-”

“Mahiru, what’s going on?”

“I don’t know! I was just running after you when all of a sudden-”

“You what?”

She slammed her hand on the surface. “Did you think I wouldn’t after you left such a- Huh?” There was a blocky object under her hand. She picked it up and held it above her face. A phone.

“Mahiru, I never asked you to-”

“Wait, I think I found something important.” She tapped the wake button, and it began playing a message.

“The First Trial will now begin.”

(Kokichi Ouma, NDRV3) I'm so tired, honestly. I used to lock myself up tight with the fantasy that someone would come along and pick me apart piece by piece, reveal the insides I kept so deeply hidden that even I wouldn't acknowledge them. But now, desperation has filled me so much that I've practically handed people the key and still, nothing. No one cares to look past the lies. All I want is for someone to pull me apart and see me for who I really am. Maybe it's selfish but I want someone to recongize how much I sacrificed without me practically begging them or spelling it out first. I miss being seen, but allowing myself to be seen plainly would go against everything I'd built myself up for. What's wrong with me? Will I never have someone who wants me the way I desire? Probably not. -🌘

TW/CW: DANGANRONPA TRIGGER HAPPY HAVOC, DEATHS AND PLOT SPOILERS

i know i never post but i may just start rambling on here about danganrompa because my partner managed to convince me to play and and holy fucking shit i truely dont think ive ever been in so much pain

[lightbulb-warning]

*pointing aggressively* RENT. FREE.

[lightbulb-warning]

platonic rarepairs ough,,,i think the first two i think of are tenko&shuuichi and himiko&tsumugi! i latched on to tenko&shuuichi right after the first trial when tenko threatens to beat kaito's ass for punching shuuichi (she seems to have a real soft spot for sad wet cat people. also LMAO) and there's this optional side conversation after shuuichi walks into the dining room without his hat where she says the others were insensitive by asking about something that should be kept between him and kaede, and she'll help carry on kaede's wish too and shuuichi has this soft little smile and!!! AUGH!!!!!!!!! their FTEs and love hotel together mean NOTHING to me they're so much more endearing in the main story. friends!!

as for himiko&tsumugi - i cannot for the *life* of me find it, but i swear there's this bit in one of the trials where she says she'll silence someone with a spell called the DEATH SPELL and tsumugi says 'um, well, i suppose being dead would silence someone pretty good!' and it made me laugh so hard i immediately latched on to them. i think a lot abt them hanging out on the sidelines,,making costumes together, talking about magical girl anime, becoming even closer once they joined the student council - and tsumugi being himiko's closest friend left by ch6. it would make the betrayal more impactful i think.

as for romantic rarepairs - i don't wanna say akasaiou since that just consists of three decently popular ships, so! i've been thinking a lot about gokutoujou lately :] gonta complimenting kirumi's spiderweb patterns and telling her she reminds him of a spider,,,kirumi being unafraid of gonta or his bug friends,,,formal dancing lessons that slowly transition into lazy circles as kirumi happily listens to him tell her about a cool beetle he found ○|￣|_ they're so soft. i just want them to fall in love as they realize the other wants them for THEM, not for any service they can provide.

i'll stop here because this became insanely long but. IF YOU EVER WANT MORE RAREPAIR RANTS I AM H E R E AND I AM FULL OF THOUGHTS

YES?? GOOD FOOD!! SUBLIME THOUGHTS YOU'VE GOT THERE!!!!!!!! hand over the rest of your rants, COWARD!!/lh

had a lot of fun with these, thank you for aiding me in my quest!! >:D
