He was stupidly handsome, the type of handsome that made her heart flutter every time she passed him in the hallway and since that first time she saw him, she'd done silly things just to see him for a few moments. Silly things like burning her toast. She had burnt her toast every time she had it, which had been far more frequent these days, just because she knew if that fire alarm went off, he'd curiously knock and she'd have an excuse to try and talk to him. It normally ended with doe eyes and heat in her cheeks.
Eden had crushes in high school, liked people but never quite to this extent, never enough that she stuttered from presence alone. She did hate that, how she got tongue-tied. Her father used to berate her terribly for it, scold her, punish her... and yer her heart beat so heavily around Xander that she couldn't help it.
"Hi!" she blurted when he answered the way she'd knocked a little tune into his door. Maybe she should've just, left the lasagne on the doormat, tapped and gone back into her flat but she had to start somewhere, right? "Hi I- Eden, from.." she wiggled her finger to her flat, a deep ceramic dish covered in tin foil in her other arm. "I hope this isn't ov-" she took a deep breath. Slow it down Eden. "I'll try that again, Hi, I'm Eden from across the hall, we've met a few times and I hope this isn't overstepping at all but, I noticed you come home late on Thursdays and I just... well I wanted to make sure you had something easy to eat, you know? Easy but, good and I mean I bake but I cook too and I don't think I'm too bad, apparently I make a great lasagne so.. well, this is for you." she had the most sheepish yet, sweetheart smile on her lips and a rosy lush to her cheeks, holding out the dish towards him. "Feeding people, kind of my thing so you know, if you're ever in need of a full stomach I'm uh-- I'm your girl." she nervously giggled.

gremlyn's danganronpa: despair time x limbus company au (drdt spoilers under cut up to chapter 2!!)
i LOVE making aus with a target audience of one person (1) by blendering two of my current interests together. this truly was our despair time.
Tumblr media
everyone except mai's "sprites" are drawn based on official sprites, and they're meant to be height accurate! or, uh, a valiant attempt was made. at the very least i got to practice drawing everyone 🎉
(complete but constantly changing AU & character notes under cut: LOTS and i mean LOTS of yapping down there. spoilers up to chapter 2 and literature girl insane MV. content warning for "standard danganronpa stuff"; the hidden text in here is about the same level as drdt's hidden tumblr page quotes)
first up is a quick crash course on limbus company! that being said, i don't think i explained myself well at all, so i recommend just checking out the official website. or straight up playing it. i'm happy to answer any and all questions, though, whether here or in my limbus-centric main (@iamjustagremlin)!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
and now here are the character notes. i have a Lot to say.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
one more minor thing i'm 99% sure forgot to include and am too lazy to fix: the canon sinners are each assigned a color code and a cool descriptor (it doesn't even need to be an adjective. cool factor always wins), such as "oblivion yellow", "dreamy gray", and "inferno red". my brain won't let me tackle these yet, but my first attempt for xander was "courageous crimson", and my first attempt for teruko was "cursed clover".
once again, if you've made it this far: thank you for reading! and my askbox is always open for mutual brainrotting 👉 👈
(also, if you squint at the character notes for long enough, there might be even more to read... it's not much, but it's honest work. do note that it should be about as "heavy" as drdt's hidden tumblr page quotes)

Made this last year, and decided to bring it onto this site!
Amusement SEKAI: An energetic and emotion-filled musical group, who aims to showcase the strong emotions and determination (and internal emptiness) that drives their actions!
Studio SEKAI: An outwardly-perfect group of performers with connections to stardom who want nothing more than to break free of the expectations that society tethers them to!
Lab SEKAI: An after-school study group that wish to use the creation of their own techno/chiptune music to study both the feelings or others and perhaps come to terms with their own feelings!
Alley SEKAI: A grungy gathering of street musicians on the edges of society who have found each other in times of destitution, and want nothing more than to yell at the world for punishing their existence.

wyd when you and the gang get stuck in a ttrpg (DRDT DND AU)
nerd stuff under cut
Teruko - Avariel Cleric that uses a magic sword. Her patron goddess is Mai.
Xander - Tiefling Rogue that uses a bow and arrow.
David - Human Bard that uses a lute and flute.
Eden - Elf Artificer that currently doesn’t have a weapon </3
Veronika (not visible) - omnipotent disembodied voice that guides them (dungeon master)
Basic AU plot - Veronika invites those four to play DND for the first time with her and it goes horribly wrong. They end up trapped in the world Veronika created for the campaign as their characters, and the only way they can leave is by completing the story Veronika set out (basically it’s like jumanji).

Hey, Ace, you don’t wear your gloves anymore? Is there a reason for that? I thought you always wore them.
ooc - That was actually a mistake on my part, I forgot to add them to his design, I apologise.
On another note - here's a map of the building, with everyone's current location. Each initial & colour represents a person. It's very important to look out for everyone.

DRDT SWAP AU TIME !!
(I had to go back and fourth on the roles multiple times. Istg-)
Here's who swapped with who;
Teruko>< Nico
Teruko Tawaki
Despite having the Ultimate title of “Lucky Student,” it seems like the only luck Teruko has is bad luck. Accidents and misfortunes constantly plague Teruko and those around her. Due to this, She is quite nervous around others and sometimes struggle to word things correctly.
Nico Hakobyan
The protagonist. As the Ultimate Pet Therapist, Nico Hakobyan possesses an incredible synergy with animals and works with owners to address behavioral issues in their pets. Yet by spending so much time around animals, Nico may have forgotten how to act around humans. Despite this, they remain courageous and confident in their own abilities. They have a natural inclination to be a bit distrustful of their peers.
Rose><Xander
Rose Lacroix
As the Ultimate Art Forger, Rose Lacroix paints copies of famous masterpieces that are so realistic that they’re often mistaken for the real thing. She owes her forgery talent to her photographic memory. Rose has a strong sense of morals, and is constantly trying to right her own wrongs. Don’t accuse her of being just a "rule breaking criminal", though. She gets worked up very easily.
Xander Matthews
Quiet in voice and yet loud in personality, Alexander “Xander” Matthews earned the title of Ultimate Rebel through his consistent tendency to go against the status quo and break the rules. Despite this, Xander is very absent-minded and rarely pays attention to things. He'll often zone out in the middle of a conversation, or worse, forget what you were talking about at all.
Arei>< Charles
Arei Nageishi
Arei Nageishi made her debut in the bowling world as a teenager by winning multiple bowling championships. Even then, She has no problem on using her strength to look down upon others, and especially, she looks down upon those she views as less stronger than her. On the flipside, Arei is easy to tease and often loses her cool if made fun of.
Charles Cuevas
While there’s no doubt that the Ultimate Chemist is very educated and talented in the field of chemistry, He has a habit of acting like a goody-two shoes, but don’t let that fool you—he can be very brutish. Ultimately, he just wants to ingratiate herself with others, although the methods he takes to accomplish that goal are…questionable.
Hu>< Min
Hu Jing
Hu Jing is an incredibly talented musician who specializes as the Ultimate Zither Player. It’s said that even a listening to a few minutes of one of her performances will bring tears to even the hardest of hearts. She is almost always seen quietly playing her zither, never wasting a single opportunity to practice her zither playing skills, and gets annoyed if she is distracted from this task.
Min Jeung
Min Jeung is one of the top school performers in the nation, and as thus has rightfully earned the title of Ultimate Student. Her talents lie in her diligence at studying and her excellent memory. Min possesses a very motherly personality, and does her best to maintain order in the group. At times, her nagging nature shows.
Eden>< Whit
Eden Tobisa
Peppy, diligent, and always punctual, Eden Tobisa is the cheerful Clockmaker. She has a bit of a tendency to overwork herself as she gets absorbed into her work sometimes. However, Eden is also seemingly unable to take any situation seriously. She's always cracking jokes and making light of things.
Whit Young
It’s said that if you get the Ultimate Matchmaker to find you a romantic partner, you’re guaranteed to have a happy and stable relationship for life. Unfortunately for Whit Young, he seems to lack all luck when it comes to finding a relationship himself. While it may seem that Whit is a tad on the emotional or naive side, don't underestimate him.
Despite all these factors, he seems to have really *good intuition*. Though, In the end he's still a regular guy who likes hanging out.
Veronika>< Levi
Veronika Grebenshchikova
Veronika Grebenshchikova is in constant curiosity about the the thrill of being scared, leading to an interest in horror fiction. Her intense consumption and studies of the horror genre have earned her the title of Ultimate Horror Fanatic. Despite this, She has a serious nature and rarely displays strong emotions, but she takes care of her classmates and does her best to help them.
Levi Fontana
His appearance may be intimidating, but Levi Fontana has the innocuous talent of Personal Stylist. Levi is used to analyzing others' appearences and what that says about their personality. Though, he gets easily embarrassed about his tendency to get carried away when analyzing about appearences. Levi also seems to have a dangerous past that he’s unwilling to talk about.
Arturo>< Ace
Arturo Giles
Arturo Giles is a Plastic Surgeon who specializes in cosmetic surgery. He shuns those who are “ugly,” an adjective that he applies to just about everyone. Arturo is rude, condescending, and yet is constantly lashing out at others, and yet at the same time is a massive coward. He’s all bark, no bite.
Ace Markey
Ace Markey is an incredible Jockey, having won dozens of awards for his jockeying abilities…and yet he completely detests the sport. He looks up to those who are strong physically and mentally, and looks down on those whom he views weak-minded. He has little value for others, unless you happen to be a strong minded individual, in which case he’ll suck up to you.
David>< J
David Chiem
David Chiem is a renowned Inspirational Speaker who has motivated many people through his uplifting speeches. Though, Unlike one would expect, David secretly loathes public speakees, believing that they all are fake, egotistical, spotlight-hogs. While he tries to act tough, in truth he's quite vulnerable on the inside.
J Rosales
Julia “J” Rosales specializes in theatrical special effects, and has worked on many famous plays and musicals throughout her life. As one would expect, J is a constantly optimistic personality who encourages those around her to keep on moving.
Her true personality may be more pessimistic and brutish than she lets on, according to some (unreliable) sources.
(Ok I admit, I just copypasted their personalities and alterted it a bit to match with their respective roleswaps-)
I saw fatherfigurefusion do a Swap AU once, sooo- I got an idea and thought why not make my own? :3
Will probably work on it after the next Episodes start releasing because currently Idrk what to do with it-
Meanwhile, here's a link to their roleswap AU if you wanna check it out !

With DRDT being revived and everything, it somehow corresponded to me making a family AU.
And by family AU… I obviously mean a fan child AU.
Basically, MonoTV has a new motive! To everyone’s surprise, they’ve been paired up based on personality, interest, relationship, or randomly to take care of an AI child! How is this a motive? Fake memories are given to every child, and whether they know it or not, their soul purpose is to cause drama.
Yes, I’m aware of how cringe this is. But cringe culture is dead. <3 I’m also aware that it’s probably worse that I used Gacha Life 2 to design these characters, but meh /lh
I’m not done with all of them yet, but I’ll edit this post to add on the ones I have yet to finish! To save room, it’s under the cut.
Tumblr media
BLAISE LACROIX - SHSL Bibliophile
The daughter of Veronika and Rose, she takes after her mama’s looks (Rose) and her mami’s personality (Veronika). She’s a general nuisance to the whole group, though she’s only often seen around her parents. …and Felicity. Oh, and those glasses don’t even have lenses in them.
Veronika is absolutely ecstatic, if not weirded out. Rose is a little concerned that she was paired with Veronika…
Tumblr media
FELICITY FONTANA - SHSL Cosmetologist
The daughter of Arturo and Levi, Felicity takes after her father’s looks, and Levi’s muscle and apathy. Yes, she calls Arturo “father” and Levi “Levi” — she claims that it’s just easier that way. While she has Levi’s apathy and inability to truly understand human emotion, she has her Arturo’s rude nature. She’s not sure why, but Blaise has a certain attraction to her… though, it’s not really a romantic one.
Levi and her both have the understanding that they don’t know how to react. However, Felicity is having a worse time understanding why her father, Arturo, refuses to talk to her… or why her name freaks him out so much.
Tumblr media
JUN-HEI HAKOBYAN - SHSL Zoologist
The son of Min and Nico - and nephew of Hu - he takes qualities from both of his parents. He’s awkward with practically anyone he meets, and he hates socialization. Why do you think he hangs out with animals so much?
Nico doesn’t like him. Why were they paired with Min…? Hu, on the other hand, is more than happy to take on the parent role, regardless of Jin-Hei wants her to or not.
Tumblr media
LAILA CUEVAS - SHSL Tutor
The daughter of Whit and Charles, she takes a lot from Whit. The only things she got from Charles was his hair, skin, and height. Her personality reflects that of Whit almost completely, though she tends to say “that’s… actually insane!” Rather than “that’s wack.” However, neither know where she got her fashion sense from… or her slight interest to nicotine.
Upon finding that this was the pairing, both were flustered. They shared it in different ways, though. Charles went straight to interrogating her, asking how they are as parents and also what she knows. Whit’s first question was “so… how’s my cooking?”
Tumblr media
CASSIOPEIA “CASSI” CHIEM - SHSL Motivational Speaker
The daughter of David and Xander - and the niece of Ace, Cassi takes her personality from the more rambunctious of the two. She gained his determination and loudness. Despite how naive she can be at times, she always means well. Her nativity sometimes translates into obliviousness, which then powers her patience.
Tumblr media
LEO CHIEM - SHSL Protestor
The son of David and Xander - and the nephew of Ace, Leo takes his personality from the more intelligent of the two. He’s a somewhat patient person when people actually want to listen. Otherwise, his temper is constantly dwindling. The only person who is almost incapable of causing his true anger to show is his twin sister.
David doesn’t know what to think of them… but they’re Xander’s kids too. He wants to protect them, and they want to help stop this killing game. Hu, despite not being part of the family, finds great interest in David’s kids. The children are unsure of how to approach her.
Tumblr media
YUMI NAGEISHI - SHSL Roboticist
The daughter of Arei and Eden - and the niece of J - takes her personality from Arei and J. She’s blunt and bossy, often ridiculing others for their dumb ideas. However, if you squint hard enough, she’s only trying to keep everyone alive. If she got any other traits from Eden… it’s slight blackmail. It’s never anything serious— anything dangerous is instantly told to somebody she trusts, most likely being Kobe, Cassi, or Felicity.
Eden has made it her mission to get as close to her daughter as possible. Yumi has made it her mission to be her mother’s spokesperson, saying what she believes her mother means (“Can we maybe be nicer?” “Mom wants to say shut your trap and listen for god’s sake.”) . J… Well, she’s trying to convince herself that she isn’t turning into her own mother. It doesn’t help knowing that Yumi acts just like J.
Tumblr media
KOBE TAWAKI - SHSL ???
The son of Teruko, no one knows who his other parent is. It has to be either Ace, Veronika, or Xander, right? But due to Kobe’s kind and patient nature, no one can be sure. Neither of his parents act like he does…
Teruko doesn’t want anyone talking to her son. At the same time, she doesn’t dare trust him. He is a motive that should never be trusted.

gremlyn's danganronpa: despair time x limbus company au: announcer duty
Tumblr media
in which these three commentate over everyone else's battles... to mixed success. (more yapping under cut!)
in limbus company, "announcer" is a mechanic where you can assign 1-5 characters at a time to commentate over your battles. this has no gameplay benefit whatsoever, but it adds to the experience!
in-universe, these three are unwilling (rose) / incapable (charles) of fighting (in the case of monotv, both), so they stay back in the bus and watch everyone else fight, commentating and sometimes offering an outsider's viewpoint. they're... as helpful as they can be, with their respective "particulars". these lines are what they'd probably say if someone uses an ineffective attack.
(if this was a game, these three would be your "default" announcers, and you'd unlock everyone else along the way. rose and charles could actually give the player battle advice, hinting about gimmicks and revealing weaknesses and such... but monotv would be absolutely useless. all it does is be silly during work hours!)
charles takes "announcer duty" incredibly seriously and resents the idea of someone else (less competent) doing it, though he admits that having a partner around is "logical" and rose is "not a terrible" option. monotv livestreams the combat feed for the announcers through the three (3) PDAs (think Ipads) this branch could afford; the third one is with mai, who directly observes and manages everyone else during combat.
regarding the other characters in the art; i thought xander, ace, and veronika would be some very likely people to rush ahead (for various reasons) and use not-very-effective attacks. for eden, i had a specific scenario in mind where eden uses her skill 3 ("strongest" skill) -> she does 3 damage (ineffective damage type + sin) -> rose wakes up and Genuinely asks eden if she already attacked or not -> eden does her best sad puppy impression. teruko dreams of strangling monotv with her own hands every time monotv becomes today's announcer and she's sent to battle

Secrets for my DRDT Roleswap AU
(Roleswap AU here)
(Trigger warning: Murder, family deaths, self-harm, homo- and transphobia)
Whit Young: The killing game is all your fault. You should have never used your intuition that day. (Received by Hu)
Teruko Tawaki: You take great pains to distract yourself from the fact that you have nothing to your name, not even a family. (Received by Levi)
Charles Cuevas: Your older brother died, yet you completely forgot he even existed. (Received by Eden)
Eden Tobisa: Ever since you kissed her, you feared others would mock and look down on you. (Received by Xander)
David Chiem: You always tried to spread hope with your talent, but you were so hopeless, that you tried to end your life three times. (Received by Ace)
Hu Jing: You exist to control others. Everyone else exists to obey and rely on you. (Received by Teruko)
Alexander “Matthews”: You changed your name and hid your birthright to hide your true identity as a child of the Spurling family. (Received by Min)
Julia Rosales: You tried to kill your mother, only to end up killing your father and brother. You wish you could bring your mother down with you. (Received by Arturo)
Arturo Giles: Your younger sister killed herself because of you. You should never have devoted yourself to your talent. (Received by J)
Min Jeung: You may idolize upper-class individuals, but did you have to poison your competition, in order to be amongst the elite? (Received by Charles)
Nico Hakobyan: Your macho and cruel personality conceals an identity that caused you to get ostracized and bullied by everyone around you. (Received by Rose)
Arei Nageishi: You may seem timid and unassuming on the surface, but you’ve put your older sisters in the hospital. (Received by Veronika)
Ace Markey: Your dedication to athletics is the only thing motivating you to eat. (Received by David)
Veronika Grebenshchikova: Your body keeps falling apart and harming itself, but you still refuse to care for it. (Received by Arei)
Levi Fontana: You took on your talent to get enough money to live by yourself, but you only ended up allying yourself with the same criminals that saddled you with a massive debt. (Received by Whit)
Rose Lacroix: Art forgery is only the tip of the iceberg, when it comes to your crimes. You even resorted to murder to line your pockets. (Received by Nico)

DRDT + Milgram AU: Undercover (Introduction)
Finally succumbed to the Urges and came up with ideas for a full Danganronpa Despair Time - Milgram AU, and now I feel like sharing. This means giving each character a MV + VD concept (not a full VD though I ain’t writing that much dialogue, and not a full MV because who do you think I am), plus this Undercover post! I’m not sure if I’ll commit to this for a full three trials, or I’ll just drop it after just one, but I can guarantee I’ll do this trial in full. Feel free to make analysis posts (no pressure obvs), but also obvs don't expect this to be that good, I'm doing this for fun.
And if you come from the Milgram side, uh... have fun? I am curious about what people with no prior conceptions of these characters would think, but I do recommend DRDT if you haven't watched it (the overlap between the fandoms is non-trivial, I imagine you'll like it). If not, you should probably look up the character designs at least, but be wary that there will be DRDT spoilers.
As an obvious disclaimer just in case, I am not affiliated with either DRDT or Milgram in any way, this is just a fanmade AU done entirely for fun.
Basic Concept
Pretty simple. What if the 16 students of DRDT were prisoners in Milgram? This means they're all "murderers" by some loose definition of the word, implying most of their backstories must be changed to acommodate for that. For the prisoner pairs, I just paired them based on the Chapter 1 recap. The rest is pretty self-explanatory provided you know how Milgram works; three trials, vote Forgiven/Unforgiven, etc. I won't repeat it all here. You can go to the official Milgram YT channel for more information if you're not familiar.
Meet Es
Although they are of unspecified adult age, this universe’s Es is very similar to canon Es from the main series, at least in appearance. The only differences are red highlights in their hair, as well as sharp yellow eyes and taller height. They also wear arm sleeves on both their arms, being particularly adverse to people touching the left one, and their voice is slightly higher pitch. As for their personality… well, you’ll have to wait for the VDs, right? But as a heads up, they’re quite a bit nicer than canon Es, though they can still get pretty strict with the prisoners. 
(Can you tell who they’re connected to yet?)
Their uniform is the same as canon, including the band thing which in Milgram runes reads “reciffO eciloP”. The only difference is that their other band thing is longer and has the following runes:
Tumblr media
(As a heads up, since there's no rune for 'q' I just used the rune for 'c/k' in its place. You probably don't need to translate it all to know what this says if you're familiar with DRDT lore)
Jackalope is replaced by DRDT canon MonoTV, no big changes to its personality. It still breaks the fourth wall and talks to an audience,which is odd for the prisoners (and Es) seeing as there is no audience in-universe (at least, that's what it claims). 
*Es’ VD is mostly the same, besides changes in dialogue caused by the difference in personalities. The only real difference is that there is no ‘extra cell.’
*Cover is still Hibana. 
Alright, let's get to the fun stuff.
Undercover
(It is highly recommended you know what the canon Undercover looks like before reading this, since a lot of it is pretty similar)
The opening is still the same minus Es' different appearance and MonoTV replacing Jackalope, and only starts changing when the prisoners begin showing up.
(Don’t- Don’t expect this to actually work as a song btw. I’m not insane enough to make that work)
UNDER Split in between decisions, my conscious is made up of torn stitches
Levi (01) holds a mostly neutral expression as he holds up his prisoner card, which displays his face alongside an image of an alleyway. His pose keeps changing slightly in smash cuts. Levi’s face darkens right before there’s a switch to the next prisoner.
(Note: I won’t mention the pose switching and the face on the card all the time, since that’s part of canon Undercover. Just assume it always repeats)
UNDER The beauty in simplicity, wilting with rising complexities
Arturo (02) has his chin up arrogantly at first, showing a prisoner card with a picture of a bathroom. He scoffs and turns around before the switch. 
UNDER A liar? No, that’s wrong! My honesty shines like a star in the night
David (03) (speaker persona) smiles nervously, rubbing at his cheek with a finger. His card shows a bedroom. He covers his face with his free hand, sighing before the switch.
UNDER A sinner? No, you’re kidding! I’m innocent as can be, just don’t mind the gaps
Whit (04) throws a cheeky grin to the camera, doing a finger gun with his free hand. His card shows a park. He nervously rubs the back of his neck before the switch.
(Note: Yes I gave him 04 because of the tetraphobia thing sue me-)
UNDER With a fury and a passion, unstoppable, show them your fangs
Ace (05) snarls at the camera. His card shows a city street. He throws it to the floor angrily before the switch. 
(Note: Sometimes I wasn't quite able to tie their talent to their murder, so it's either tangential to their story or has been replaced with something similar. I am mentioning this with Ace for... no reason in particular, sure, you'll believe that)
UNDER Your fears and anxieties, Respond to the stress, show me fight or flight
Nico (06) hides under the part of their cloak which looks like a scarf, peeking out nervously. Their card shows a locker room. They take a step back as the scene switches.
INSERT CHORUS HERE
UNDER Each existence is like no other, Lucky, unlucky, showtime reaches all
J (07) holds up her card with an unsatisfied expression. It shows a bridge surrounded by camera equipment. She rolls her eyes as the scene switches.
UNDER And yet, it’s all the same In the end, this wretched still life goes on
Rose (08) yawns as she holds up her card lazily. It shows a large dining room. The card slips from her hand as she falls asleep.
UNDER It’s too much, too much, I’m high strung, please forgive my sins
Hu (09) looks nervous, glancing around as if to find a place to hide. Her card shows a zither in a non-descript room. She drops her card, and closes her eyes with a pained expression, a hand on her chest. 
UNDER Please do condemn me, Bloodletting, the horror inside us is what makes me feel.
Veronika (10) spins and gives the camera a bright smile as she pulls out her card. It shows a rooftop. She throws the card in the air dramatically, laughing as it spins around and falls beside her. Her eyes fall back on the camera, and she smirks menacingly. 
UNDER  Unopposable, incontestable Merry kings, life’s queens, for me they bow down.
Arei (11) is sticking out her tongue and looking to the side dismissively. Her card shows a bowling alley. She laughs into her hand before the scene switch.
UNDER My weakness haunts me, Alarm bells are ringing, there's no going back.
Eden (12) fidgets with her hands, shaking nervously. She hides her face behind her card as she shows it, but her teary eyes are still visible over it. The card shows a bedroom full of clocks. She cries into her hands before the switch. 
INSERT CHORUS HERE
[The music winds down, a bridge of sorts. As it plays, a few scenes are shown, where only the characters’ silhouettes are visible, white noise covering them]
[01: A steaming kettle covers most of the foreground. In the background, Levi is seen sitting at a table, head slumped forward. Most of the table is visible, but no one else is in the frame]
[02: Arturo is seen to the left, holding a white turtle neck shirt in his hands. Behind him, an open suitcase sits on a bed, clothes splayed haphazardly around it]
[03: David stands alone on an empty stage, arms wide out. The spotlights are all on him. The entire stage and some of the front row seats are visible, with David’s silhouette only covering a small part in the center of the frame]
[04: A computer monitor covers almost the entire frame. There are countless photos and words, but they’re all too blurry to see, with the exception of a small message on top which reads “Analyzing profiles…” Whit is reflected on the screen, resting his head on one of his fists]
[05: Ace sits on a motorcycle, looking up and admiring the night sky which takes up most of the frame]
[06: Nico is crouched beside a cat, holding out a pink mouse toy for it to play with. Only their legs are visible, but there is a puddle of water under Nico]
[07: J has her palm spread out all over the screen, as if blocking the camera. There are flashes of light behind her, but the source is impossible to see]
[08: Rose sits slumped in a chair, hands on her face. All around her, dozens of canvases can be seen, painted entirely in black. Small bits of color poke out at the bottom, but no full paintings are visible]
[09: The camera is entirely focused on the top of a zither. Hu’s hand is visible, touching the strings with her plectra]
[10: Only Veronika’s footwear is visible over a dark floor. The rest of the scene is filled entirely by blood]
[11: Arei stands in front of a bathroom mirror. She’s holding the right side of her hair, the only part that’s visible. It looks very unevenly cut]
[12: Eden is holding her head in her hands, slumped over a work desk full of small machinery. Behind her are a multitude of analog clocks of various designs, all showing the same time; 6:00]
[13: Min is sitting on a chair, slumped forward and apparently collapsed over a notebook. A pen sits just beside her right hand. A bit of the writing can be seen, showing this:]
Tumblr media
[The brown part being Min's hair. Don't make fun of me I'm using Paint and have zero art skills]
[14: Xander, the focus of the shot, stands in front of a crowd, standing on a simple chair. His fist is in the air, and so are the fists of everyone in the crowd]
[15: Charles is kneeling over a grave, the name on it hidden behind the silhouette. Charles is pulling at his hair with his hands. Other graves are visible around him, but the edges of the screen are darkened and it’s impossible to see them well]
[16: Teruko’s hand is reaching out to a black figure, this one without white noise. The figure is completely non-descript, more a simple shadow than a proper silhouette. Blinding white light surrounds this figure] 
UNDER No mistakes, no corrections, 100% Perfection, results shall not vary. 
Min (13) wears a neutral expression, and she holds her card perfectly upright. Her pose changes only to match the exact angles actual mugshots use. Her card shows an untidy bedroom. Before the switch, she lowers her hand, and looks briefly to the side, before turning back to the camera. When she does, her left eye flashes magenta behind her hair. 
UNDER Fighting for true justice, Stand strong, a reflection of the will of the many
Xander (14) is glaring at the camera, moving his card around flippantly. Said card shows a window overlooking an entire city. Xander throws the card away before throwing a punch at the screen.
UNDER Leave no room to hide, No hesitation, a chain reaction of truth unfolds
Charles (15) looks serious, if a bit annoyed as he holds up his card. It shows a laboratory table with several test tubes. He turns his back to the camera, adjusting his goggles, but gives one last, softer look behind him as the scene switches. 
UNDER Or shall the secrets remain? What lies beyond the lies, armageddon untold
Teruko (16) looks at the camera with cold eyes, but a hint of a frown on her lips. Her pose never changes; unlike everyone else, her segment is one continuous shot. It starts with her holding her card at an angle such that only her face is visible on it. She closes her eyes solemnly, before finally flipping her card around so only the backside is shown. It has the Milgram logo combined with the DRDT logo. She never shows the rest of the front of the card, as the scene switches moments after. 
[Pre-chorus, as the prisoners hold their hands to their mouths before a scene of them smiling plays. At the end, for a few frames, a white camellia blooms, before there’s a sudden shift in scenery as we hit the final chorus. All the prisoners’ silhouettes have a still shot each with Es, with a blood splatter always under the latter. The scene starts to focus on each individually]
[Levi’s punching Es in the face, Es thrown to the floor from the impact. Brass knuckles are barely visible on his hand. Levi’s shouting, as are all the other prisoners]
[Arturo is kneeling, facing away from Es. The latter is laying on the floor behind him in what would be a pretty uncomfortable position. Arturo is holding his head in his hands, his mouth visible from the side and open in a shout. One of Es’ shoes is off]
[David is holding Es by the neck of their shirt, shouting at their face (from now on I’ll stop clarifying that they’re shouting). The following symbol appears over where his eyes would be, glowing yellow: 正] EDIT: I forgot to mention one of Es’ shoes is off. RIP to the theorists I’m so sorry-
[Whit is pointing what looks to be a gun at Es, who is recoiling as if they’ve been shot in the heart]
[Ace is seen running, Es’ body falling to the ground beside him and twisting as if they’d been bumped into]
[Nico sits on top of Es’ back. With one of their hands, they’re grabbing onto Es’ hair and apparently pushing it forward. With the other they’re holding two ends of a wire firmly planted on Es’ neck]
[J stands normally, pointing what seems to be a remote control at Es. The latter is face-up on the floor, their limbs contorted in unnatural angles]
[Rose is standing, facing away from Es, who is kneeling and grabbing at their throat. A small jar sits beside them, the cap taken off]
[While standing, Hu is grabbing Es by the throat with both hands, blood coming from the Warden’s throat]
[Veronika is kneeling besides Es’ face-up body. Her hands are on her chest, and there is blood under her as well as the Warden. Meanwhile, Es’ limbs are contorted in unnatural ways, and one of their shoes is off]
[Arei is violently swinging a bowling ball at Es’ head, causing their body to twist around as it falls]
[Eden is standing, covering her eyes. Her right hand has a Ⅵ symbol glowing bright yellow. Es is uncomfortably laying face-up on the floor]
[Min is standing with her back turned to Es, who is kneeling on the floor and grasping at their neck. Min is shouting into a landline phone. Along her arm, an equation glows bright yellow:
ln(x³ - 2 . 13) = 0]
[Xander is grabbing Es’ shoulder, plunging a knife into their stomach]
[Es is standing neutrally, but there is still blood on the floor. A glowing yellow question mark floats above them. Charles is nowhere to be seen]
[Teruko is kneeling calmly besides Es, who is lying face-up with their hands crossed over their chest as if in a coffin. A question mark glows on Teruko's left hand. Teruko is the only prisoner besides Charles who is not screaming]
[The song winds down while a sped up and translucent version of the video plays in the background. A shadow begins growing in the middle, and for just a moment, two sharp yellow eyes stare at the camera from the center of the screen. The finale simply has Es exiting to the left as they do in canon Undercover]
