#mild saiouma???

[suddenlymicah]

so, we agree that kokichi's love hotel is really interesting, right? for saiouma purposes, of course.

in most of the love hotel events, the characters don't act like themselves. they act a bit differently, and on top of that, don't have their actual roles.

but with kokichi's love hotel event...

they just act like themselves. shuichi is a detective, kokichi is a sly antagonistic thief. shuichi even says says it himself, "Ah, so I'm not a different person here. I'm me, and Kokichi is Kokichi.

this sets it apart from every other love hotel event.

think about it.

notice how all of them are clearly imagining someone else. kaede is imagining a lover, miu a childhood friend. korekiyo is imagining someone that confessed to him, angie a "lower rank"(presumably something related to worship of atua on her island). gonta is imagining an actor(?), and tenko a fellow user of neo-aikido. rantaro is imagining a student, maki is imagining a fellow person at her orphanage. ryoma is imagining a former manager, himiko is imagining an animal she granted a human form with magic, kaito is imagining a rival pilot, and kirumi is imagining the son of an employer. i'm not even touching tsumugi's event.

now, some of them are more unclear, like kiibo's event. it's implied that shuichi is a close friend, but either way, he's not meant to act like shuichi usually acts.

this is all unlike kokichi's event. if anything, SHUICHI is more in-character during the event than kokichi is, but that makes sense, considering kokichi's character. that's an argument for another day, however.

one other think that's odd about his love hotel event is that kokichi leaves.

in all of the other events, the screen just fades to black with the character sprite still standing there. but with kokichi...

he leaves. after playing around with shuichi a little bit, he turns and leaves. NONE of the others are like this.

now, i think it's worth mentioning what the love hotel events are. the danganronpa wiki states; "The student fully believes in the dream scenario even if it is farfetched, but has no memory of the encounter when they wake up, whereas the protagonist is fully aware that it's a dream, and has some foggy memories of the encounter when they wake up." the reason none of the other people leave is because this is a dream on their part, an ideal. in kokichi's ideal, not only is he toying around with SHUICHI, he leaves him pining and confused, just like he does in-game.

But then again, what do I know? This could be not-canon, and thus not saiouma.

[akechiguro]

are we rockin with werewolf shuichi because i could go on a long rant about my headcanons for him

[saioumaarchive]

“What’s this supposed to be?” Oma asked, his lips pursed in an unimpressed moue of disdain as he opened the top corner, poured sweet crystals into his palm. As Saihara watched, he tilted his hand and poured it in a fine stream past his face, staring at it with half-lidded eyes. “Is this meant to be your latest tribute to my majesty or something?” “Tribute? It’s...it’s sugar.” Saihara shrugged helplessly. “You like sweets, right? And you can use it in tea-” “Sure. But I’ll tell you what this is.” Oma set the bag down on the table with a faint thud. “It’s, like, half of a do-it-yourself kit for the kind of thing I actually wanna eat. Wow, it’s like you totally know me!”

~ lovingdefiance, "Sugar" This author quite simply cannot write a bad fic. Their characterization is on point, the pacing is perfect, and the Saiouma dynamic encompasses everything we all love about the ship. “Sugar” starts out with Shuichi gifting Kokichi a bag of sugar from the Monomono machine, and Kokichi promptly demands a more acceptable tribute— so Shuichi starts making him desserts with it instead, with the help of a new character each chapter. There’s plenty of humor and lighthearted antics to go around, and the engaging descriptions of making and eating tasty food will make you want to take up baking yourself. Seriously, put down whatever you’re doing and get over there; this is a must-read. The fic is rated M for depiction of a hand-feeding kink, but I respectfully disagree: the content described is so mild it’s barely noticeable, there’s no description of arousal or sexual intent, and there’s nothing about the fic that would make me uncomfortable recommending it to a minor (the worst you’ll see is a passing innuendo). Props to lovingdefiance for erring on the side of a higher rating, but we’ll give this one a T.

Rated M (Again, it’s closer to T) 17,730 words, 5/5 chapters (complete) Completed 4 November 2018

i may be late to "kokichi having abs panic" but this is my take on it so enjoy (also bcs content *coughs violently)

[disastergay]

he’s fine (probably)

[thelemoncoffee]

so there's this one soulmate au concept i saw bumping around that i kinda wanna adapt into a cute saiouma au with a zest of mild angst.

the soulmate au was pretty simple; when people fall in love with someone, they get a little tallymark on their wrist; every new person they fall for is a new tally. if the person they fall in love with feels the same and confesses to them, their tally turns red and they stop reciving tallymarks

i wanna add to this by going; while red is confirmed requieted, grey tallymarks are un-answered/default and black are confirmed rejections. this is my little angst gadget :)

so. Saiouma in this au.

Kokichi, having a habit of falling in love easily, has a lot of tally marks. looking at his wrist spells out his path though it. this first few are black from early on trying to hard, then only grey up to his most recent tally. it's clear Kokichi stopped trying early on after several heartbreaks and just ignored his feelings to save himself from hurt and more black tallys.

Shuichi doesn't have nearly as many tallymarks as Kokichi, not even close, but unlike Kokichi's mix of black and grey- he only has black tallys. Shuichi didn't fall in love often, but when he did he fell for the one person in every situation who wouldn't feel the same.

I think it'd be fun if they found out about one another's awful tallymark messes, and Kokichi proposed jokingly that they make a silly club between just the two of them called the unloveable club. it was just a joke but after the suggestion Shuichi did start to hang around Kokichi more, and both began to refer to their meetups as "unloveable club meetings"

from here they both earn new a new tallymark by falling for one another during their hangouts, and it becomes a fun little game of "do i tell him and risk our friendship, or not say anything and let him keep thinking he's unloveable?". of cource gay shennanigans and a crap ton if accidental friendzoning ensues.

╰―➺ Request Rules

• Rules

(Some includes mentions of NSFW. Namely 2 and 3, though it is not in detail.)

I will not take requests that portray topics such as abuse, pedophilia, toxic relationships, etc in a positive light. Things such as yandere are iffy but alright as long as it is made clear they're toxic. Any positivity for yandere posts will most likely stem from stalkhome syndrome.

While I do take mild NSFW requests, I will not take requests for certain kinks. You can ask, but the general idea is no 'gross' ones. By this I mean piss/shit and feet kinks, stuff that's icky, and doesn't include stuff like pegging, which some may think is gross. Basically if it's unsanitary it might be banned, but you can ask, since outdoor stuff can be considered unsanitary but isn't banned.

I will write NSFW headcanons and possibly NSFW-ish oneshots and the like, but full on smutty writing is kinda iffy. Doesn't mean I will say no, it's just a resounding maybe. Headcanons are a probably though.

I will not accept very specific requests that I may find too difficult to fulfill. I've seen posts with requests asking for specifically something like a black reader, however I don't think I'll be able to do this without more specifications. I am hispanic, so my experience with life has been very POC filled, and thus to me POC is the norm, and that's how I write, asking me to specifically write for a black reader might be confusing, since in my perspective, I only know about Hispanic Culture.

If the gender of a reader is not specified for x reader requests, assume the reader is gender-neutral. If it's smut and not specified, it more than likely will be AFAB, or gender neutral.

I will not write bestiality or necrophilia. Things like werewolves, vampires, and zombies do not fall under this if said creature is sentient.

ALWAYS CHECK my masterlist rules too! There are certain ships for certain fandoms I will NOT write for, including but is not limited to: SaiOuma, BakuDeku, Junkan, etc. If I haven't made them yet, please just ask!

There is a chance I won't do your request because I don't feel up to it! I sorta prefer requests that give me a spark for ideas.

Considering this blog is new, there won't be any links yet, but these are a lot of the planned fandoms, for both character x character and reader insert stuff, or solo stories and headcanons. There's more fandoms that I'm probably forgetting, so just ask.

. . Introduction Post! . .

Hello everyone! I'm pretty sure you all know this by now, but I'm Fanatic, I have some other names too, but you'll have to check my pronouny for those. and I'm genderfluid with varying pronouns, which you can find my pronouny here, and I am a minor! I'm also a gyneromantic abroromantic aegosexual asexual (A lot, I know).

I haven't made a pinned post with info about me yet, and this is it! Please take your time to read through the whole thing!

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥

About Me

I know I've already said this, but I'm Fanatic, and you can check my pronouny for my others names. My birthday is December 13th, I'm a minor, genderfluid with varying pronouns, and I have a pronouny right here!

I can easily switch from having a good sense of humor to seriousness, but I usually choose to have a sense of humor but I can get serious when talking about things I like, especially my Danganronpa and DDLC aus.

I've self diagnosed myself with ADHD, OCD, BPD, mild depression, and I'm questioning if I have autism, because I relate to the symptoms of it. I haven't been professionally diagnosed, but I'd still say I have it. I'm also developing bpd!

I love Danganronpa and Doki Doki Literature Club, but Danganronpa v3 is my favorite but I think Danganronpa 2 had the best plot. I have also played through Ultra Despair Girls!

I sadly get annoyed really easily, though it's usually when someone says something. I'll let you know if I get annoyed. That's just something to watch out for, okay? Okay.

Anyways, that's all for now. I might update this later!

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥

What will you find on here?

Well, you'll find multiple different things on here.

Usually it's just me reblogging stuff, but I usually make my own posts atleast once a day.

Sometimes I'll just gush about a ship, or sometimes I'll scroll through a tag and you'll just see a saga of reblog from that tag on here.

Oh by the way, I don't queue my posts I just straight up post them.

I guess that's really all for right now.

[toxicpineapple]

is there a specific reason u dont like oumota?? or do u just Dislike it

oh boy anon you’re really gonna have me go into that kinda conversation alright... i guess it’s no secret that oumota is my least favourite pairing, so i don’t mind talking about it. all that aside please keep in mind that these are my opinions and i have a lot of respect for people who ship any pairing (aside from the problematic ones, obviously, pro-ship dni) and i have zero desire to start any fights with anybody.

i’ve never been a fan of enemies-to-lovers as a trope. i think it’s good to start there. one of my earliest fandoms was the death note fandom, and there was a LOT of lawlight (l x light) content. still is, i’m sure, i just haven’t been by the fandom in a while. i just, i absolutely hated it. i was in fifth grade at the time so i was a bit... oblivious, to chemistry between characters as a whole, but also, it just didn’t make any sense to me! they hated each other! why would you think that’s a good relationship! light LITERALLY wanted l dead and i’m not gonna say any spoilers in case i have followers who haven’t seen the show yet but the way things go down... it just didn’t make sense to me. there was the homoerotic foot rubbing scene, of course, and l tells light that they’re friends, but light was being ACTIVELY MANIPULATIVE the entire time. i didn’t see why people would want to ship people who are enemies. i couldn’t wrap my head around it.

after being in fandom for a bit longer, i think i’ve managed to figure it out, lol. i am (and will always be) of the belief that any pairing can be done well, given enough time and attention. (again aside from the problematic ones i’m not here to engage with incest or pedophilia okay that shit is nasty and i don’t need your “it’s fiction!” bull that kind of mindset perpetuates abuse.) if you can sell me on it, then damn, sure, i’ll be into it. i’m still not big on enemies-to-lovers, that fifth grade mindset of “it’s so weird to ship people who hate each other” hasn’t really gone away, but i’m open to it. if you can sell it, i’ll buy it! that kind of thing.

i still prefer friends-to-lovers though. in the danganronpa fandom, i’ve always prefered naegiri and hinanami over naegami and komahina. (oumasai and saimota are the exception, i go back and forth on them but ultimately i love them equally, ouma being my favourite antag and all) i just think that positive interactions are healthier, and communication is easier when you’re not at each other’s throats all the time. this is obviously my opinion, subject to debate and all that, yadda yadda yadda. i’ll take shy smiles across the breakfast table over homoerotic pauses in the middle of arguments any day of the week.

i think you’re starting to get the reason why oumota isn’t my cup of tea. still, i like naegami and komahina, like, a LOT. enough that i would write them on my own time, extensively, just because i feel like it. there are pairings where i wouldn’t be so willing, where i’d just shrug and do it if requested but ultimately keep to my side of the playground. even if i don’t immediately jump to shipping people who dislike each other, that doesn’t mean i should have an avid hate for this pairing! so what gives?

it comes down to this, anon: ouma and momota HATE each other in canon. with a lot of enemies-to-lovers things, there’s like, a brief moment of mutual appreciation to give people steam. byakuya and makoto have that!!! byakuya is there to help makoto as much as he can after their killing game, and from post-chapter four onwards byakuya is unreservedly on makoto’s side. they work together!!!! at the end of the game byakuya says he’ll help if people need it!!!!! (through the byakuya translator ofc.) and then he DOES!!!!!!! he went into the neo-world program to help makoto!!!

and komahina has that too!!! all of chapter one, for example? nagito’s ftes? at the end of nagito’s ftes hajime starts to really, truly understand why nagito is the way he is. he doesn’t agree with his actions but he gets it! and he feels BAD for him!! so bad that nagito lies and says what he’s been talking about didn’t really happen. not to mention 2.5, and post-canon, all the potential for slowburn while the remnants are living together on jabberwock island.... they make me soft.

saiouma has that too, i mean, i wouldn’t call saiouma enemies-to-lovers necessarily if only because shuichi is so passive for most of the game, but they have those, like, those small moments. ouma calls shuichi his beloved, and i do believe his behaviour in chapter four was just manipulation, but still, y’know, he was flirting. ouma’s love hotel shows that shuichi is LITERALLY his ideal, and shuichi puts up with all these death threats and games throughout ouma’s ftes in an attempt to understand him-- the final fte is so sweet, how shuichi bandages his finger after he cuts himself.... pique chaotic dumbass energy but they’re adorable as hell.

and i’m sorry to say this, but in my opinion and as far as i can remember... oumota...... doesn’t have that. not once does either ouma or momota show anything but cool distaste for one another. momota PUNCHES OUMA IN THE FACE in chapter four, which is the first real time you see the two of them like.... interacting? (aside from kaito begrudgingly, secretly agreeing with kokichi about people watching the motive videos, but that’s not shipping fuel imo.) and it only gets worse from there. throughout chapter four kokichi goads kaito, trying to pick at his insecurities-- not to mention he tries to get closer to shuichi, someone who kaito has been very close to this entire time!!! he insists that shuichi investigate with him, rather than with kaito, and keeps egging him on throughout the entire trial, mocking him and praising shuichi, the like. and after the trial kokichi PUNCHES KAITO IN THE STOMACH!!! AND KAITO HAS A COUGHING FIT SO BAD HE FALLS TO HIS KNEES!!!!!!! WHAT THE FUCK!!! sorry i’m trying not to be akdljflk about this it just... gah. i dunno. ouma absolutely SLAUGHTERS kaito and shuichi’s relationship, deliberately picking at kaito’s insecurities in order to tear down the group as a whole, and i just... it rubs me the wrong way.

chapter five is even worse for me. i know it’s like the biggest shipping fuel people have for them, and i,,, i get it? it’s poetic, the villain and the hero, these two purple dudes who represent opposing ideals, in this scandalous romance behind the exisal or whatever. i just can’t with it, though.

let’s talk about what ouma does to kaito in chapter five :)

-he knocks him out with an exisal and takes him hostage -he sends all his friends (except maki, beautiful, erratic maki) into a DEPRESSION so that the audience will get bored and stop watching the killing game -sorry i already said this but he KIDNAPS KAITO!! HE KIDNAPS HIM!!!! AND TRAPS HIM IN THE EXISAL HANGAR!!!! -he forces kaito to be indebted to him by pretending to drink the antidote and then giving it to him -he THREATENS MAKI!! HE THREATENS HER LIFE!!! IF KOKICHI DIES MAKI WILL BE EXECUTED AS THE BLACKENED AND KAITO KNOWS THIS!!!! i don’t care if you ship momoharu those two had A relationship regardless of whether you saw it was romantic or platonic and kaito cared about her??

he essentially held both maki and kaito hostage and BLACKMAILED kaito into going along with his plan. at the end of the chapter five trial kaito states that he went along with it because he thought it was brilliant, not because kokichi threatened maki, but i still just... it kind of horrifies me.

(i want to be perfectly clear that i LOVE kokichi ouma, he’s a brilliantly morally ambiguous character who did a bunch of fucked up things to try to achieve a noble cause and in no way is this me shitting on him, i’m just saying that given the things kokichi did to kaito i just, can’t get behind it.)

i should also address that even after kokichi did all that, even started BREAKING DOWN in the exisal hangar, kaito maintained that kokichi was a bastard who was difficult to understand. kokichi was being perfectly clear about his intentions. he wanted to end the killing games. i don’t think he ever wanted anything else, in the game. after all of that, for some reason, kaito still just didn’t get it. and i don’t think it’s because kaito is stupid-- kaito is NOT stupid, as funny as the memes are-- i just think that he was genuinely unwilling to try to understand kokichi ouma. he was sympathetic towards a lot of people. shuichi and maki and kaede and gonta and all of them. but he just, he didn’t like ouma. and i feel as though (this is just my speculation so don’t take this as anything real) kokichi never held anything towards kaito except resentment, either. because here’s this THICK DUMBASS who is ruining EVERYTHING that he’s trying to work towards-- not only that, but everyone absolutely adores him, the one thing that kokichi can not, no matter what, hope to achieve. because in order for his plan to work, he needs them to hate him.

all this is canon-compliant, though. i think ouma would’ve been a lot more mild in a non-despair au. i still don’t like the pairing in any aus though, regardless. i just don’t feel like they have the right kind of chemistry. ouma is, he’s like, he’s childish! he likes picking at people, trying to get reactions out of them. y’know who’s easy to get reactions out of? kaito. and not because he’s some funny stupid man, because he has CRIPPLINGLY LOW SELF ESTEEM. kaito is DEADASS afraid of ghosts and i know it’s a funny haha but he nearly shits himself whenever they’re so much as mentioned and ouma is the type of person who would just continue to bring them up to get the reaction out of him. it’s like shipping hiyoko and mikan, y’know? mikan gives hiyoko the reactions she wants and mikan takes it because she’s desperate for attention of any kind. they both feed into each other’s worst tendencies. kaito is easily challenged. all you have to do is imply he’s not a man and he’ll do whatever you want. that’s not HEALTHY!! and ouma would take advantage of it. not because he’s a bad person, but just because, he like,,, he messes around and he takes things too far because he’s a child and he hasn’t seen any real repercussions. that’s what i believe.

this is more of a petty, unrelated reason, but i also used to follow this really annoying oumota shipper who was constantly shoving the pairing down everyone’s throat and absolutely slaughtering kaito’s characterisation in the meantime. in a lot of fics i read before becoming actively against it, i saw ouma being a sniveling crybaby, totally unable to defend himself from anything, and kaito being this callous asshole who was mean to everyone but ouma. i just, i don’t see it? and then maki is always portrayed as so abusive, threatening and hurting ouma all over the place because kaito likes him and not her and shuichi is borderline obsessive if not outright creepy, either jealous of kaito or kokichi because there’s no grey area with these people, and they just, they make shuichi and maki so unsupportive and mean and i just... i don’t like it, not at all. the fastest way to make me hate a thing is by vilifying my favourite characters.

sorry for the long answer, anon. i know i have followers who like oumota, and i respect you for it! it’s just a MAJOR squick for me and i try not to engage with it if i can avoid it! thanks for the question!

He Remembered Kokichi

He remembered Kokichi. The boy who gave him so much joy, so much happiness, and took it all away with his death.

He did not want to remember, and what he did remember confused him, as he realizes none of his memories quite line up with each other.

What does he really remember of Kokichi? And is it all the truth?

Chocolates for My Beloved (Saiouma)

Hello! As I’m sure you all know, today is Valentine’s Day. So, I have come with a Saiouma Valentine’s Day one-shot for you all! Tbh, this was actually my very first Saiouma piece (like, ever) and I had it uploaded on Fanfiction Amino, but it didn’t get a whole lot of attention TT_TT

So, I figured I’d put it up here because one, I have been meaning to come back to this and edit it for the longest while, and two, I will get to actually post it on Valentine’s Day rather than a month after XD

Title: Chocolates for My Beloved

Summary: In order to express his feelings to a certain detective on Valentine’s Day, Kokichi decides to make some chocolate for him. But, upon seeing Shuichi with Kaede, Kokichi begins to have second thoughts about it...

One-Shot Notes: Non-Despair AU where they are all attending Hope’s Peak (they all have their talents still)

One-shot is under the cut!

Kirumi made her way to the dining hall. Himiko had developed a sore throat and requested that Kirumi make her some tea. Of course, Kirumi was not one to turn a request down, so she decided to do it.

The school was deadly quiet except for her strolling the dim, moonlit halls.

At least, she thought she was the only one awake and wandering about the school at this time of night.

As she was about to take a left, she noticed a stream of light coming from the Home Ec classroom.

“Hm? I thought nobody else was up at this time...” she murmured under her breath as she made her way over to the door.

She stopped, making sure her silhouette wasn’t showing before poking her head in curiously. She was not prepared for the sight before her, eyebrows quirking up in mild surprise.

It was total chaos in the Home Ec classroom, supplies and equipment strewn everywhere by one of the stations. In the middle of it all was Kokichi, who had his bangs pinned back by glittery pink bobby pins that he probably stole from Miu and a light purple apron tied around him. Dark smudges covered his cheeks, the tip of his nose, his forehead, and his apron as he ran about the room in a rush. She could hear him let out a string of curses before he came back into view with a pan in his hand, smoke drifting up from it.

“Why is making chocolate so hard?!” he whined.

He pouted, putting the pan into the sink along with several other ruined pans.

Kirumi could only stare, surprised by what she was seeing.

“Ouma-kun...making chocolate?” she silently withdrew from the Home Ec classroom. “That is quite peculiar...” she murmured under her breath.

She decided to keep that information tucked away in her mind in case she needed it as she headed off to go make the tea for Himiko.

❤️🍫❤️🍫

“Ouma-kun was trying to make chocolate last night?” Rantaro questioned, blinking his green eyes in surprise as he looked up at Kirumi, who stood by his desk the next day.

“Yes. I saw him in the Home Ec classroom when I was heading to the dining hall to make some tea for Yumeno-san.” she explained.

“Hm...he never really puts in the effort when it comes to that class...” Kirumi took a seat across from Rantaro. “I wonder why he’s doing that...” he trailed off.

“I have been thinking about it and I might have come up with something.” she looked over at the date, which was written on the chalkboard. “Do you know what day it will be in two days?” she asked.

“The 14th, right?” Rantaro answered.

“Indeed. In two days time, it will be Valentine’s Day.” Kirumi explained.

Rantaro’s eyes widened a fraction, finally making the connection.

“Are you saying that Ouma-kun is making Valentine chocolate for someone he likes?” he asked.

“That would most likely be the case.” Kirumi replied.

“I see...” Rantaro trailed off.

He looked around the classroom before his gaze finally settled on Kokichi, watching as he crowded around Shuichi’s desk. He then leaned in towards Shuichi’s face, causing the detective to nearly fall out of his chair, a blush painting his cheeks a bright red.

“I think I have a pretty good idea as to who he might be making that chocolate for.” he said.

❤️🍫❤️🍫

“...And then, Saihara-chan saw right through me! I honestly was shocked when he called me out on it—“ Rantaro cut Kokichi off, glancing down at the supreme leader.

“Isn’t that a lie, though? You being shocked, that is.” he asked.

“Of course it is, my sweet Amami-chan! I knew he was going to call me out on it sooner or later. He even said that the game should just be called Two Lies and a Truth because of how much I lie. Isn’t he just so cute?” Kokichi gushed, his purple eyes sparkling with childish delight.

“Indeed, he is. He must be so cute that you’ve brought it upon yourself to make Valentine chocolate for him.” Rantaro pointed out.

“Hm? Me? Making Valentine chocolate for Saihara-chan?” Kokichi questioned.

Rantaro didn’t realize that Kokichi had stopped following him until he looked to his side. He turned, seeing a blank expression wash over Kokichi’s face for a split second before one of his signature smirks took its place.

“Wooooooooow, Amami-chan! You sure like to jump to some crazy wild conclusions!” Kokichi raced over to Rantaro and clung onto his arm. “Whatever made you think that I would be making Valentine chocolate for my beloved Saihara-chan?” he asked, sparkling purple staring into inquisitive green.

“Toujou-san saw you in the Home Ec classroom last night. She said you messed up the recipe a few times.” Rantaro commented as they resumed walking down the hall with Kokichi hanging off of his arm.

“Is that so? Toujou-chan must have bad eyes then because I was nowhere near the Home Ec classroom last night! I was in my bed, sleeping like a baby!” Kokichi declared.

“You never have a good night’s rest to begin with, so don’t think you can fool me with a lie like that.” Rantaro deadpanned.

“Nishishi~Of course, of course. I don’t think I could ever fool you, anyway.” Kokichi stated.

“So, you admit that you were making Valentine chocolate in the Home Ec classroom last night?” Rantaro asked.

“Nope!” Kokichi made sure to pop the ‘p’ as he continued to cling onto Rantaro. “Like I said, I was in my room. Come on, Amami-chan, you know how much I despise that class! Or could it be...you forgot?” Kokichi’s voice began to waver as crocodile tears began to well up in his eyes.

“I would never. And also, your crocodile tears won’t work on me, so don’t bother.” Rantaro said.

“Ugh, you’re soooooooo boring! Even that disgusting pig is more amusing than you!” Kokichi pushed himself away from Rantaro, bringing his arms behind his head in a laid back expression. “So not fun...” he mumbled.

“Well, sorry for not being fun.” Rantaro said.

He then released a sigh, shoving his hands into his uniform pants pockets.

“You know, I’ve helped make Valentine chocolate before. I can help you, if you’d like.” he offered.

Kokichi didn’t respond at first. Rantaro almost thought the boy had stopped mid-walk again when he heard footsteps come up beside him.

“Would you really, Amami-chan?!” he asked excitedly.

“So what Toujou-san said was true...” Rantaro murmured with the roll of his eyes.

“Don’t be like that!” Kokichi clung to his arm again. “So?! Will you help me?! Will you, will you, will you?!” he asked.

“Of course I will.” Rantaro replied.

“Yay! This is why I love you the most, Amami-chan!” Kokichi declared, a wide smile spread across his face.

“I thought Saihara-kun was the one you love the most...” Rantaro mumbled.

“Hm? What was that?” Kokichi asked, a threatening look crossing his face as he said that.

“It’s nothing. Just know that we should do it tomorrow night.” Rantaro said.

“Huuuuuuuuh?! Why then?! We should do it tonight so that we can get it out of the way!” Kokichi whined.

“You wouldn’t want to give Saihara-kun day old chocolate, would you?” Rantaro asked.

“Geh...! What’s up with you insisting that I’m making Valentine chocolate for Saihara-chan?!” Kokichi asked.

“Um...you told me that you had fallen hard for him two months ago? Like, you were swooning over his pretty looks, his eyes, and you wouldn’t stop talking about how good he looks in—“ Kokichi cut him off.

“Ugh, stop already!” Rantaro swore he saw Kokichi’s cheeks turn pink. “I now regret telling you everything!” he whined.

Rantaro couldn’t help but chuckle as he let Kokichi pull him around the corner.

❤️🍫❤️🍫

“Okay, have you chopped up your chocolate?”

“Yup! All chopped up!”

Rantaro looked over at Kokichi, who had finished chopping up his chocolate.

“You know, I was afraid you were going to cut yourself with the knife, but I guess I don’t have to worry about that.” Rantaro stated.

“Amami-chan, you’re so mean! You act like you can’t trust me with anything!” Kokichi whined.

“That’s because half of the time, I can’t.” Rantaro glanced over at the pan sitting on the stove. “Have you checked your cream to see if it’s scalding yet?” he asked.

Kokichi’s eyes widened in horror at the realization.

“Shit!” he exclaimed as he quickly scrambled over to the stove, peering into the pan.

Rantaro watched as Kokichi released a drawn out whine.

“It’s burnt!” he complained.

“Let me take a look.” Rantaro said as he made his way over to Kokichi. He peered down at the pan before sighing.

“I think I know what the problem is. You’re not keeping an eye on it.” Rantaro stated.

He heard Kokichi let out an overly dramatic gasp.

“How dare you, Amami-chan! I am totally keeping an eye on my stuff!” he exclaimed.

“I’m not sure I believe that. You’re such a scatterbrain sometimes, you know.” Rantaro stated.

“Below the belt, Amami-chan.” Kokichi shot back.

“It’s the truth, though.” Rantaro pointed out.

Kokichi whipped his head around so fast that Rantaro swore he had gotten whiplash.

“A-ma-mi-chan~” Rantaro had a wide smile on his face, but the look in his eyes was sinister. “Continue to insult me and I’ll make sure I have my secret organization come and kill you.” he spoke, the sweet tone of his voice contrasting greatly with the deadly threat.

Anyone would’ve been terrified of his threat, but Rantaro hung around the supreme leader long enough to know better than to be scared. He sighed deeply.

“I know you won’t kill me. Besides, I’m the only one who can help you with making the chocolate.” Rantaro said.

“No, you’re not! I can get Mom to help me, you know!” Kokichi pointed out.

“Yes, but I don’t think Toujou-san would be able to tolerate you for this long. Only I can do that.” Rantaro explained.

Kokichi pouted.

“Geez, you’re being like Saihara-chan...always acting like such a goody-two-shoe...” he mumbled.

Rantaro chuckled.

“Well, I have to keep you under control somehow.” Rantaro dug through one of the cabinets and pulled out another pan. “Here, let’s try again. And this time, I’ll help you.” he said.

“Okay!” Kokichi chirped before taking off the stove and skipping over to Rantaro. Rantaro reached for the carton of heavy cream and he poured some into the pan, taking it over to the stove. Kokichi followed him, eyes sparkling with excitement.

“Okay, so what we’re going to do is set a timer for the heavy cream so that we can prevent it from burning due to lack of supervision. Can you do that for me?” Rantaro asked.

“Of course! Anything for my darling Amami-chan!” Kokichi declared as he whipped out his phone, the purple glitter phone case gleaming in the light. “How long should I set it for?” he asked.

“Thirty minutes will be good enough.” Rantaro replied.

“Okie dokie!” Kokichi declared as Rantaro turned the stove on to medium heat and Kokichi started the timer.

“Now, you will have to stir it frequently so that a film doesn’t form on the top of the heavy cream.” Kokichi pouted at the thought of having to stand in front of the pan for nearly half an hour. “Here, use this. The silicone of the spatula will prevent the heavy cream from sticking to it.” Rantaro explained, handing Kokichi a purple silicone spatula.

“Okay!” Kokichi replied, taking the spatula from Rantaro and beginning to stir the heavy cream around.

“Make sure you’re not continuously stirring it. Stir for a bit, wait a couple minutes, then stir again.” Rantaro instructed.

“Yes, daddy.” Kokichi drawled out in response. 

This caused Rantaro to choke on his spit.

“I’m sorry, what did you just say?” Rantaro asked.

“What? All I did was call you daddy.” Kokichi responded, blinking up at him innocently as he stopped stirring the heavy cream. 

“Okay, that has a weird ring to it, so please stop calling me that.” Rantaro said.

“Hm? I’m pretty sure I can say whatever I damn please, Amami-chan. If I want to call you daddy, then I shall!” Kokichi chirped.

“I literally can not see you in any other light besides as a best friend, so don’t continue to call me that because I am most certainly not your ‘daddy.’“ Rantaro pointed out, placing his hands on his hips as he eyed Kokichi sternly.

This caused the supreme leader to burst into loud fits of laughter.

“Man, why’d you have to get all serious like that?! I was only messing you, you know! Or maybe I wasn’t. Who knows~” Kokichi said.

Rantaro let out an exasperated sigh as he watched Kokichi resume stirring the heavy cream. He couldn’t help but admire how Kokichi was trying his hardest to make the best batch of chocolate he could for Shuichi. It made him think that Kokichi truly did love Shuichi with all of his heart.

He examined the small band-aids littering his fingers and hands from when he had either cut or burned himself the night before (and from last night, from what Kirumi had told him), the smudge of bittersweet chocolate on the rise of his pale cheekbone, the way he had his hair pulled back into a small ponytail with a purple scrunchie, the glittery pink bobby pins that he pinned his unruly bangs back with, and the way the tip of his tongue rested on his upper lip as his eyebrows furrowed in deep concentration. Kokichi looked so pure and so at ease in this situation that Rantaro couldn’t help but pull out his phone and take a picture of him. The shutter went off and he swore he saw Kokichi jump a little before he stopped stirring.

“Amami-chan, did you just take a picture of me?” he asked in mock surprise.

“Yeah. You just looked so peaceful that I couldn’t help it.” Rantaro explained.

“Hm...is that so...” Kokichi tapped a finger against his chin. “Well, we can’t have that!” he exclaimed.

“Eh?” Rantaro questioned.

“You’re not going to get a very good picture of me if I’m not facing the camera!” Kokichi stirred the heavy cream before turning to face Rantaro. “Go on, take another picture of me!” he declared.

Rantaro sighed, shaking his head as a small smile graced his lips.

“Alright. Just make sure you keep stirring the heavy cream.” he said.

“Of course, Amami-chaaaaan~!” Kokichi singsonged as he posed for Rantaro, who took his picture.

Rantaro looked through his photo gallery, silently deciding that he was going to show these photos to Shuichi when he saw him next. Kokichi noticed how Rantaro was staring down at his phone with a smile on his face.

“Oi, Amami-chan! I thought you were assisting me! And don’t think I don’t see you ogling my pictures! I know I’m sexy.” Kokichi spoke teasingly.

Rantaro snorted, a laugh dancing on the tip of his tongue.

“What?! You don’t think I’m sexy?! I mean, look at me in this cute purple apron! And how I tied my hair up! My angelic face! My gorgeous eyes! My luscious and soft lips! My slim body!” Amami was shaking with laughter as Kokichi gesticulated wildly, spatula in hand. “Amami-chan, wouldn’t you want to fuck me?!” he asked.

Rantaro was choking on gasps as he calmed his laughter.

“I...I think you should save that little spiel for Saihara-kun...” he trailed off.

He could see the red begin to seep onto Kokichi’s cheeks (it amused Rantaro how Kokichi let himself be more vulnerable around him). Before he could say something, the sound of Kaito screaming in a high pitched voice reached their ears.

Rantaro quickly looked over at the door, wondering if Kaito had seen them as Kokichi burst into laughter.

“Nishishi~Amami-chan, you are way too funny! That was my timer!” he declared, picking his phone up from off the counter.

“I don’t even wanna know how you ended up getting that...” Rantaro murmured.

Kokichi reached to turn the stove off and he brought it over to the bowl where the chopped chocolate was in. After pouring the scalded heavy cream into the bowl, whisking it together, adding in chopped almonds (“Saihara-chan told me that he reeeeeeeeally likes almonds! And that’s the truth!” Kokichi had chirped excitedly), and pouring the chocolate into the heart shaped silicone trays, they put the trays into the fridge so that the chocolate could set and solidify.

“I can’t believe it’s finally done!” Kokichi exclaimed as he nudged the fridge door shut with his hip.

“Well, all we have to do now is wait. We’ll come back early in the morning to check on them.” Rantaro glanced over at the equipment sitting on the counter. “But for now, let’s get this cleaned up.” he suggested.

“Okie dokie!” Kokichi declared as he skipped over to Rantaro and he began to help him wash the dishes.

Kokichi squeezed some soap onto a sponge and he began to rub the sponge against the surface of the bowl he mixed the chocolate, heavy cream, and almonds in as he spoke.

“So, Amami-chan, do you think you’ll get something for Valentine’s Day?” Kokichi asked.

“Hm...I would like to hope I do.” Rantaro admitted, bringing one of the saucepans under the gushing water.

“Who do you hope to get chocolate from?” Kokichi asked.

“I wouldn’t mind at all if I ended up getting obligatory chocolate, but I secretly hope that the girl I like gives me chocolate.” Rantaro explained.

“Ooooooooh, Amami-chan’s got a crush!” Kokichi rinsed the bowl and he put it in the drainer. “Is is Toujou-chan?” he asked.

“No. I don’t think I could ever see her in the romantic sense.” Rantaro said.

“Then, how about Shirogane-chan?” Kokichi asked.

“No way. Shirogane-san is not even my type.” Rantaro pointed out.

“Then, could it be...” Kokichi let out a dramatic gasp as he ran some water over the spatula. “You have feelings for Akamatsu-chan?!” he exclaimed.

Kokichi watched as a deep red blush exploded across Rantaro’s face.

“Oh my god, I can’t believe I guessed correctly! But then again, that’s a lie cuz I knew aaaaaaaaaall along that you were head over heels for her!” Kokichi added soap to the spatula and he rubbed it with the sponge. “You were so obvious, after all. You’d always stare at her whenever you got the chance and you took every opportunity to assist her with anything just so that you can talk and spend time with her. I’m shocked that Bakamatsu-chan is so oblivious about your feelings for her. Your feelings for her are as plain as day!” Kokichi pointed out.

“You’re one to talk. You start grinning like a goddamn fool and act all giddy when it comes to Saihara-kun. If anything, it seems to me that your feelings for the person that you like are more obvious than my own.” Rantaro remarked.

“Oh, you hush, avocado head! I’ll have my secret organization tail you and kill you for trying to act like a smartass.” Kokichi stated.

“I’ll tone it down.” Rantaro said, choosing to go along with Kokichi’s antics as they finished washing all of the dishes, dried them off, put them back in their appropriate spots, and left the Home Ec classroom, flicking off the lights and closing the door behind them.

❤️🍫❤️🍫

Kokichi skipped down the hall the next day with a pink bag filled with the chocolate he had made last night in his hand. He had been ecstatic that the chocolate he made (with the help of Rantaro, of course) had turned out just right. He knew for a fact that his beloved Saihara-chan would love the chocolate that he made just for him.

He turned the corner as he spotted a familiar figure in the middle of the hallway. He beamed, knowing that hat from anywhere.

He got ready to call out to the taller boy when he saw that Shuichi wasn’t alone. Kaede stood before him, holding what might’ve been a small bag of chocolates. He stopped in his tracks, watching as Kaede presented him with her chocolate.

“I...I like you a lot! Please accept my chocolate!” she said, her loud declaration ricocheting off the walls.

Kokichi felt his stomach twist in disgust at the sight before him. He swallowed, trying to get rid of the lump that had somehow formed in his throat. He hated this feeling and he desperately wished that it would just disappear.

This was definitely not how he wanted this day to go at all. All he wanted was to present his chocolate to Shuichi, flirt with him a little, confess to him, and hopefully be able to take the next step in their relationship and begin to date. He definitely was not expecting Kaede to confess to Shuichi and give him her homemade chocolate.

Rantaro’s heart was going to be broken once Kokichi told him what he had seen.

But, that wasn’t important now. Right now, Kokichi needed to do what he did best: act natural and pretend that the pain didn’t exist.

He plastered on the widest grin that he could muster up as he opened his mouth to speak.

“Oh my! What is it that we have here?!” he called out in an obnoxiously loud voice.

Kaede let out a surprised squeak while Shuichi turned to look at Kokichi.

“Ouma-kun...!” Shuichi exclaimed in surprise.

“Hello, my beloved Saihara-chan!” he clung to Shuichi’s arm, beaming up at him. “You’re looking as cute as always!” he chirped.

An adorable blush spread across Shuichi’s cheeks as he averted his gaze.

“Uh...” he trailed off.

Kokichi grinned before looking over at Kaede, acting like he had just noticed her.

“Oh, we’re not alone. Hi, Akamatsu-chan!” he greeted.

“Ouma-kun, what in the world are you doing here?” she asked.

“Oh, I was just hoping to confess my feelings to my beloved Saihara-chan, but then you beat me to it!” Kokichi declared.

“Huh?! That’s not what it is! I was just—“ Kokichi cut her off.

“Oh, that was a lie.” he stated.

“Huh?!” Kaede exclaimed.

“Ouma-kun, that is something I don’t think you should be lying about.” Shuichi chided as he looked down at him.

Kokichi could see the way that Shuichi was looking at him. It was that look he got when he was trying to figure out if his statements were a lie or if he was really telling the truth. His eyebrows would furrow, his eyes would narrow, and he would touch his chin like he were contemplating something. Kokichi noticed the way Shuichi pulled his bottom lip in between his teeth with one of his canines digging a little into his bottom lip, which was something he does when he’s getting ready to call Kokichi out on his lies. Kokichi swallowed, his eyes trained on Shuichi’s lips. The action was so goddamn sexy that he just wanted to knock that silly hat off of Shuichi’s head, grab him by his shirt, push him against the wall, and kiss him until his lips were nice and swollen—

Okay, he was seriously starting to get carried away.

“But, in all seriousness, I’m actually looking for my darling Amami-chan.” If Kokichi hadn’t shot a glance at Kaede, he would’ve missed the distinct pink blush spreading across her cheeks at the mention of their green-haired classmate. “Any ideas as to where he might be?” he asked.

“Um...I could’ve sworn that I saw him in the library...” Shuichi trailed off.

“Okay! Thank you very much, my beloved~” Kokichi purred.

“Wha—?! Be-Beloved?!” Shuichi squawked out, his cheeks turning red in embarrassment.

“Nishishi~” Kokichi pulled away from Shuichi before beaming at Kaede. “Well, you can go back to confessing your undying love to him!” the words were like a sword being plunged straight into his heart. “See you losers around!” he said before skipping off. He then stopped, turning to wink at Shuichi and blow a kiss in his direction. The detective sputtered, the blush spreading to his ears as Kokichi giggled before turning away.

As soon as he did, the mask slipped off and he practically flew down the hall to the library. All he could see in his mind was Shuichi and Kaede and hear her love confession. He could practically hear Shuichi accepting her confession and the two of them beginning to date. Everyone would be happy for them because obviously, Shuichi and Kaede were a good match. There was no way that he would end up getting that much support if he has somehow managed to sweep Shuichi off his feet and get him to date him. Who would love someone like Kokichi Ouma, anyway?

He shooed those thoughts away as he arrived, swinging the door open and startling the librarian and some of the students.

“Amami-chaaaaaaan!” he called out.

“Oi, keep it down!” the librarian barked out.

Kokichi paid the librarian no mind as he began to search the library for a familiar mop of green hair. He then spotted Rantaro, who was flipping through a comic based off a popular television series by the name of Danganronpa.

“Amami-chan!” Kokichi called out.

“Ouma-kun?” Rantaro watched Kokichi in surprise as the supreme leader made his way over to him. “What happened? Did you manage to find Saihara-kun?” he asked.

Kokichi shook his head.

“Nope! I looked eeeeeeeverywhere for my beloved Saihara-chan, but he was nowhere to be found! So, I guess I can give my chocolate to you instead!” Kokichi handed him the bag of chocolates that was meant for Shuichi. “Here, take this as friendship chocolate.” he said.

He tried to keep the façade up, but he could tell that it was breaking by the way Rantaro watched him with concern flickering in his eyes. He closed the comic, putting it back on the shelf.

“Ouma-kun, did something happen?” he asked.

“Hm? Whatever made you think that, Amami-chan?” Kokichi asked, tilting his head in confusion.

“You may think that it’s not obvious, but the look in your eyes says otherwise.” Rantaro stated.

Kokichi could feel his lips pull into a strained, artificial smile as he forced out a laugh.

“Oh, Amami-chan, you’re so funny! I’m not upset at all! I just felt like giving the chocolate I made to you for a change!” he said.

Kokichi brought his hands behind his head, trying to hide how they were trembling.

“Well, it was nice talking to you, my darling Amami-chan! I’m going back to my room and crashing for the rest of the day.” he turned on his heel. “Bye bye!” he chirped before skipping off.

Rantaro stared at the bag of chocolate in his hand, frowning.

Something wasn’t adding up. Kokichi had put in so much time and effort into making these chocolates, so why in the world would he give up on giving them to Shuichi? The only way Kokichi would’ve just given up was if he had seen Shuichi, but he had seen him being offered chocolate by someone else—

His eyes then widened, the pieces clicking together.

“Shit. I need to find Saihara-kun.” he said before storming out of the library in search of the detective.

❤️🍫❤️🍫

Shuichi made his way back to the classroom to grab up his bag and head back to the dorm for the day.

He had ended up getting an unexpected request from his best friend Kaede, who had wanted to confess to Rantaro, but wasn’t quite sure how to go about it. So, he had decided to pretend he was Rantaro and have Kaede practice with him until she felt confident enough to confess to their green-haired classmate.

What he didn’t expect was for Kokichi to interrupt them during their practice session. He had pestered him a little (since when did the supreme leader not pester him?) and tried to casually flirt with him like he usually did. Anyone who had seen Kokichi and didn’t know any better would’ve thought that Kokichi had looked absolutely fine. But, Shuichi knew better. He had been observing and analyzing Ouma long enough to tell when something was off with him.

When he had stared at Kokichi, he could see what might’ve been hurt and betrayal floating about in those deep purple eyes that Shuichi had grown to love. It was only there for a half a moment, but it was enough to tell Shuichi that something was indeed wrong with him. What exactly was wrong with him, Shuichi didn’t know. But, he knew that something was bothering him and he was determined to get to the bottom of it.

He was so ready to call Kokichi out, to tell him to stop acting like everything was okay when it actually wasn’t. But, Kokichi had beat him to it, smothering those raw emotions that had flashed through his eyes with an eye twinkle (he wondered briefly how someone could fake that) and began rambling on about what Shuichi assumed was another lie before dashing off in search of Rantaro.

His stomach twisted at the thought of Kokichi gifting chocolate to Rantaro. He had wished that what Kokichi had said before about gifting the chocolate to him was true. But, it was quite selfish of him to think this way. It wasn’t like the trickster felt the same way that he felt, right?

He stepped into the classroom to be met with Rantaro.

“Ah. Amami-kun.” he greeted.

“Yo.” Rantaro replied.

It was silent as Shuichi made his way over to his desk, picking up his bag. As he began stuffing his books into it, he heard Rantaro speak up.

“By any chance, did you happen to run into Ouma-kun earlier today?” he asked.

“Ouma-kun? Yeah, I did run into him. Why do you ask?” Shuichi answered.

He heard Rantaro let out a small ‘tch’.

“Just as I thought...” he mumbled under his breath.

This caught Shuichi’s attention.

“Hm? What is it, Amami-kun?” he asked.

“Here, take this.” Rantaro said before throwing something in his direction.

“Ah!” Shuichi exclaimed as he caught what Rantaro had tossed him. He looked down at what Rantaro had given him and a sharp gasp escaped his lips.

“Isn’t this your chocolate, though?” Shuichi held up the pink bag of chocolates that he had seen Kokichi holding before. “Ouma-kun said that—“ Rantaro cut him off with the raise of his hand.

“Actually, those chocolates are meant for you.” Rantaro said.

“For me?” Shuichi could hear his heart pounding in his ears. “But, Ouma-kun said that—“ he was cut off again.

“If that’s what he said, then just know that that was a lie. Look at the tag on the bag.” Rantaro instructed.

Shuichi did as Rantaro had said, picking up the sparkly red heart-shaped tag and turned it over to see Kokichi’s swirly handwriting on it.

To: My beloved Saihara-chan~!!!

His cheeks grew warm, heart racing faster as Rantaro spoke. “He’s in his room. You should probably talk to him. You like him, don’t you?” Rantaro asked.

“I...” Shuichi held the bag in his hand. “I do like him...I like him so much...” he trailed off.

“Then, go tell him. I’m sure he’d be ecstatic if you did.” Rantaro suggested.

Shuichi smiled softly at the bag of chocolates before looking at Rantaro.

“Thanks, Amami-kun.” he began to hurry out of the classroom before he remembered something. “Oh, I almost forgot! Akamatsu-san wanted to talk to you behind the school! She said that it was really important.” he said.

“Really?” Rantaro blinked his eyes twice before smiling. “Okay. I’ll definitely go see her.” he said.

“Thanks. I think she’d really like that.” Shuichi said.

Rantaro chuckled a little.

“Now, don’t keep Ouma-kun waiting. Go get him, tiger.” he said jokingly.

Shuichi wanted to roll his eyes at the Spider-Man 2 reference, but decided not to as he raced out of the classroom and down the hall to the dorms, bag of chocolate in hand.

How could he have been so blind? Kokichi had thrown the truth in his face and yet he had deemed it as a lie and something that he shouldn’t be joking about. Kokichi was going to confess and he just had to ruin it.

Way to go, Shuichi Saihara.

As he ran down the hall, he got a text from Rantaro along with a few photo attachments and a video attachment.

Amamiʕʘ‿ʘʔ: Ouma-kun might try to refute you if you ask him whether he made the chocolate or not, so show him these as proof. The video was something I took without him noticing, so he has no idea about it XD

[IMG_5709]

[IMG_5710]

[VID_0017]

He tapped on the photo attachments one by one and watched as pictures of Kokichi in an apron with his hair tied back, bangs pinned back by glittery bobby pins that he probably ripped off of Miu, chocolate smeared across his cheeks, and a happy smile spread across his lips as he posed for the camera, occasionally moving to stir something in a saucepan showed up on his screen.

He then tapped on the video and listened as Kokichi began to speak.

“Oi, Amami-chan! I thought you were assisting me!” the camera was tilted at an odd angle, the camera capturing Kokichi’s legs and a part of the apron he had on. “And don’t think I don’t see you ogling my pictures! I know I’m sexy.” He heard Rantaro snort as the camera shifted to get a better view of Kokichi (without him seeing it, of course).

“What?! You don’t think I’m sexy?! I mean, look at me in this cute purple apron! And how I tied my hair up! My angelic face! My gorgeous eyes! My luscious and soft lips! My slim body!” he could hear Rantaro laugh as Kokichi gesticulated wildly with a spatula in his hand. “Amami-chan, wouldn’t you want to fuck me?!” Shuichi nearly choked, blushing furiously at what Kokichi was implying as Rantaro spoke.

“I...I think you should save that little spiel for Saihara-kun...”

Shuichi felt the blush crawl up to his ears at Rantaro’s statement. He then saw how Kokichi’s cheeks turned an adorable shade of red, causing his heart to race.

He looks cute like that, he had thought to himself.

He arrived at the dorms a few minutes later and he made his way down the hall to Kokichi’s room, which was at the end of the hall next to Keebo’s. He stood in front of the door, letting out a shaky sigh.

“Well...here goes nothing...” he murmured before reaching out to knock on the door.

“Ouma-kun? We need to talk.” he called out.

Silence answered him. Shuichi tapped his chin thoughtfully. Was Kokichi really in there?

“Hey, Ouma-kun? Are you in there? We need to talk. This is important.” he tried again.

This time, he heard something plastic hit the door. So, Kokichi was indeed in there.

“Look, I can’t talk to you if you don’t open the door for me.” Shuichi said.

He heard footsteps making their way to the door and then a voice.

“What, Saihara-chan? Did you come to show off your chocolate that Akamatsu-chan gave to you? Did you come to rub in my face that you and her are now an item?”

“What?! No, that’s not i—“ he then stopped, noticing something. “Wait a second. Did you see when Akamatsu-san had presented me the chocolate?” he asked.

“Nope! I only just assumed that was the case because the two of you were alone in the hallway when I was looking for my precious Amami-chan~!”

“That’s a lie, isn’t it?” Shuichi asked.

“Haaaah, Saihara-chan is way too boring. Yes, it was a lie. I did hear her go off about how much she liked you and what not.”

“So you came up to us on purpose...” he stared at the door. “Ouma-kun, I just want you to know that that was most definitely not what it was.” Shuichi said.

“Oh? Then tell me, what exactly was it?”

“It was...” Shuichi found himself reaching up to tug on his cap. “Akamatsu-san was wanting to confess to Amami-kun today, but she didn’t know how she was going to go about it. So, she practiced her confession on me.” Shuichi explained.

“Heh...that’s a nice, convincing lie you’ve made for yourself. I don’t know why you think I was so concerned about what you two were doing that you had to come out of your way to say that it was a total misunderstanding, but—“ Shuichi cut him off.

“But, aren’t you lying too, Ouma-kun?” he asked.

Kokichi was silent. Shuichi bit his lip, wondering how to proceed with this. Based on what he had heard from Rantaro, his observations from Kokichi earlier, and the attachments that Rantaro had sent to him, he couldn’t deny it any longer. He had to present Kokichi the facts if he wanted to get him to open up.

“Ouma-kun, maybe we should have this talk inside your room. It’s kind of hard to communicate like thi—“ Kokichi cut him off.

“No way! Why would I want to do that?!”

Shuichi let out an exasperated sigh.

“Okay, how about we do this? I’ll ask you some yes-no questions. Knock once on the door to say yes, twice to say no, and three times to say that you don’t know. Okay?” he asked.

He heard Kokichi knock once.

“Okay. And please be honest with me, okay?” Shuichi asked.

He heard Kokichi knock once before adding another knock. Shuichi held back the urge to chuckle as he spoke.

“Okay...so, did you overhear her confession speech?” he asked.

Kokichi knocked once.

“Okay. Did you happen to misunderstand the situation?” he asked.

It was silent before he heard Kokichi knock once.

“Were you trying to interrupt us on purpose?” he asked.

Kokichi knocked once.

“Was that chocolate you had with you really meant for Amami-kun?” he asked.

Almost immediately, Kokichi knocked on the door twice. Shuichi couldn’t hold back the chuckle that escaped his lips.

“Are you sure you’re telling me the truth?” Shuichi asked.

There was a knock. Before Shuichi could continue, he heard Kokichi add another knock.

“Can I...try and guess who the chocolate was for?” Shuichi asked.

It was silent for a little while. Shuichi could practically see Kokichi hesitating behind the door, wondering how to answer him without totally giving himself away. He could imagine one of Kokichi’s eyebrows quirking up, thumb being caught in between his plush lips as he gnawed at his fingernail, deep in thought. It was a sign that he was really thinking something over; a sign only Shuichi had been able to pick up on.

He then heard a soft knock, one that was more hesitant than his others knocks. It was like he feared what Shuichi was going to say next.

“Okay...” Shuichi stared at the tag attached to the bag before speaking. “The chocolate...it was for me, wasn’t it?” he asked.

The other end was silent. Shuichi sighed before continuing.

“I...I think that’s the case because the tag on the bag says that it’s addressed to me and...” Shuichi reached to open the bag and pulled out a heart-shaped chocolate, biting into it. “It also has almonds in it. I’m the only one in our class that even likes almonds.” Shuichi explained.

He took another bite as he spoke.

“I heard that you made these, Ouma-kun.” he commented.

“I did no such thing.” he heard Kokichi say.

“I know that’s also a lie. Amami-kun sent me some pictures and a video of you making the chocolate.” Shuichi pointed out.

He could imagine Kokichi letting out a string of curses under his breath, cursing Rantaro for giving him away.

“Ouma-kun.” he gripped the bag in his hand, making sure not to crush the chocolate inside. “The chocolate...it tastes really great. And I really appreciate the effort that you put into making this for me. You know...” he trailed off.

Shuichi swallowed. It was now or never.

“This is one of the reasons why I—“ Shuichi watched as the door flew open and Kokichi practically flew into his arms, nearly knocking him off his feet as the shorter boy nuzzled his face into his chest. Shuichi’s cheeks flushed red. “O-Ouma-kun...!” he squeaked out.

“No...” Kokichi’s hands fisted themselves in Shuichi’s shirt. “There is absolutely no way that I’m letting Saihara-chan confess before I can!” he shouted into his chest.

Shuichi watched as Kokichi raised his head, moving his hands up to cup Shuichi’s cheeks and he brought his face down towards his own, their lips coming together in a kiss.

At that moment, Shuichi felt like everything in his world was complete. Kokichi’s touch was gentle and his lips were soft and plush against his own, tasting of Panta and sugar. Shuichi wished that the moment would last forever; he wished that he could continue drinking in the taste of the smaller boy’s lips. However, Kokichi pulled away from the kiss before he could. He stared up at Shuichi with an unusual seriousness in his eyes.

“Saihara-chan, I love you. You’re the only one that I could ever love this way.” he confessed.

Shuichi was mesmerized by the way Kokichi’s eyes sparkled with so much love that it felt like he was drowning in it. He loved the way Kokichi’s thumb rubbed the rise of his cheekbone lovingly, the way Kokichi stared at him like he was the best thing that ever happened to him, and the way his lips quirked in a soft, genuine smile.

“I...I love you too, Ouma-kun.” he replied.

“Kokichi.” Kokichi continued to stroke his cheek with his thumb. “Call me Kokichi, Saihara-chan.” he whispered.

“Then, you can call me Shuichi.” Shuichi said as the distance closed between them again.

The bag of chocolate fell by his feet as he reached up to cup Kokichi’s cheek, his other hand moving to rest on the smaller boy’s hip. Kokichi hummed, his arms moving to drape themselves over Shuichi’s shoulders. The kiss blew Shuichi away, making his mind go absolutely blank.

They pulled away from the kiss after a few minutes. Shuichi stared down at Kokichi, admiring how his cheeks were flushed an adorable pink.

“Kokichi...you’ll be my boyfriend, right?” he asked.

“Of...” he watched Kokichi’s cheeks grow even pinker. “Of course I will be...there’s no way I’d pass up such an opportunity!” Kokichi beamed up at him. “I’m going to be the best boyfriend that you will ever have!” he declared.

Shuichi’s cheeks flushed red.

“I...I’ll try my best...” he murmured as his eyes locked on Kokichi’s hands, which were littered with band-aids.

“Did you hurt yourself when you were making those chocolates?” he asked.

“Hm?” Kokichi’s hands quickly went behind his back. “Of course not! Why would I be so silly as to cut myself?” he asked.

“You have bandages all over your fingers. I could feel them when you put your hands on my face just now.” Shuichi pointed out.

He extended his hands out towards Kokichi.

“You don’t have to lie to me when we’re alone, you know.” Shuichi told him.

Kokichi sighed.

“Fine, fine. Just know that I’m doing this for you!” Kokichi said as he placed his hands in Shuichi’s, putting his band-aids on display. Shuichi stared down at them, running his thumbs along the band-aids covering the tips of his fingers and various spots along his fingers and palms of his hands. A soft smile spread across his lips.

“It makes me so happy that you made homemade chocolate for me.” he said.

“Geez, Shuichi, you’re being way too sappy! You’re acting like those guys in those shoujo romance mangas.” Kokichi teased.

“But, I think you like it when I act like a sappy romantic.” Shuichi stared at Kokichi as he brought Kokichi’s hands up to his lips, kissing them softly. “See? You’re blushing.” he said, watching how Kokichi’s cheeks began to take on an adorable shade of red.

Kokichi let out a small huff before pulling his hands away, turning on his heels.

“Come.” he said.

“Huh? You want me to come in?” Shuichi asked.

“Well, duuuuuuuuuuh. What else did you think I meant?” Kokichi asked, glancing over his shoulder at him.

“Ah! That is...” Shuichi trailed off.

“Nishishi~! Well, don’t just stand there! Come in!” Kokichi called out.

Shuichi got ready to follow him when he realized that the small bag of chocolates had fallen to the ground at some point when they had kissed. He scrambled to pick the bag back up.

“Now, we need to plan out our first date!” Kokichi declared.

“First date?!” Shuichi squeaked out.

“Why, of course! You get a boyfriend and you don’t think about taking him on a date?!” Kokichi let out a dramatic gasp. “Shuichi...could it be...that you don’t actually love me...? Was that confession all a fluke...?!” Kokichi choked out as big, fat tears welled up in his eyes.

“Ah! N-No, that’s not it! I didn’t mean it like that, I—“ Shuichi was cut off by a laugh.

“Nishishi~! Juuuuuuuuuuust kidding! I know that my beloved Shuichi truly loves me!” Kokichi said.

“I do. I would go up to the roof right this second and shout out to the whole world that I love you.” Shuichi said.

A melodic laugh rang through the air and Shuichi would do anything to be able to hear that bubbly, genuine laugh from Kokichi again.

“Geez, Shuichi, you really are a romantic sap!” Kokichi exclaimed, reaching out to take Shuichi’s hand and pull him into his room.

Shuichi closed the door behind them as he listened to Kokichi chatter excitedly about various things they could do for their first date. As Kokichi turned to him with a wide smile on his face, Shuichi couldn’t help but think that with Kokichi as his boyfriend now, everything felt complete.

ya know those Teacher aus? i had an idea for a Saiouma one;

Kokichi is a Drama teacher, and Shuichi is a Literacy teacher; they share a common interest in shakespear and talk about his works during their shared breaks, later on branching off to other topics and becoming good friends.

Kokichi, being the nuisance he is, will often sneak into Shuichi's classroom when he's on break but Shuichi isn't, and 'joins' the class (he tries to not disturb the class and just watch, but that's not easy for a former class clown to pull off)

Shuichi, after a month of this regularly happening, decides to do the same to Kokichi as a mild form of revenge for puting him on the spot so frequently. He initally only intended on doing it once, but found himself interested in how differently Kokichi behaved while actually working. He ended up regularly slipping into the Auditorium to watch, sometimes getting dragged up onto the stage as a form of forced participation

Their students notice the frequent visits the teachers give one another and being the little shits we all know highschoolers are, start to actively ship them. Soon Shuichi and Kokichi find themselves being teased and interrogated by their classes, catching some students in the act of attempting to get them hooked up.

While at first they thought the students were just being the teens they are (and some were), the duo started to pick up on the fact that the kids were onto something. Kokichi caught himself getting lost in Shuichi's calming voice while he rambled on during a lesson or babbled about his latest intrests on breaks. And Shuichi couldn't ignore the skipped heartbeats he felt every time Kokichi grabbed his arm to drag him somewhere.

While it takes some time for them to come to grips with their newfound crushes- and alot more teasing and prodding from students- they eventually admit their feelings and start dating.

of course, knowing Kokichi is part of this, you know things don't get all wrapped up with a neat little bow quit yet. Kokichi convinces Shuichi to not tell the students about them yet; while it does allow them to adjust to being in a relationship without any interferance, He mainly wanted to do this for entertaiment purposes.

Shuichi thought it was a bit crule at first, but the more his uninformed students tease and whine about how he and Kokichi need to hook up, he started to understand the comedy Kokichi found in it.

Do You Regret?

read it on the AO3 at https://ift.tt/l6IvCLP

by SereneParadox

"Do you regret (regret) the things we shared that I'll never forget?

Well do you? Tell me that

I know I'm young, but my mind is well beyond my years

I knew this wouldn't last, but ×××× you, don't you leave me here"

–Melanie Martinez, Teacher's Pet

How did Ouma Kokichi end up the way he is? How did he become so reserved, sorrowful and meek? How did he end up in Japan in the first place? It was all the fault of wretched people who only saught entertainment, and Kokichi's desperation for love, no matter what kind.
