Happy Valentines day! <3

Thanks to everyone who participated in the valentines event! I was kinda overwhelmed at the response. Here's the coloured prompts, the sketch prompts will go up this Sunday (as I've not finished them yet)

Some prompts were duplicated, so in those cases I changed the pose or angle slightly (hopefully) it's still recognisable.

Reikako: Rei x Mikako

(A Danganronpa Another AU comic)

I really ship them so much

@ninjagirlstar5

[danganronpasurvivoraskblog]

For Rei, when did you propose to Mikako?

Alright, fine...But only if you promise not to tell Setsuka or Teruya. Or anyone else for that matter.

So...when she was brought back to life, even after she got adjusted to her new job, we kept spending time together. Like the groundwork had been laid, and we went out and did things together that I never normally would.

Go to cafe's, take trips to the countryside or the mountains...Things that a stuffy old professor like me never did as a kid.

And it was...nice...

——————————————————————

[Flashback...]

What do you mean?

I never really ever did show you the true extent of my thanks for what you did...And my apology for doubting you so much...

I think of all my regrets...Treating you the way I did was my biggest.

Rei, come on. It's not like I can blame you, given what happened to your family. I didn't really trust anyone either.

Besides, I was dying anyway...Better to use what was left of my life for a good cause rather than-

Please, don't discredit yourself, that just makes it harder for me.

Huh?

You were so strong, so selfless, and I...I never told you how much I grew to care about you once you were gone.

Not just as a friend, but as someone I loved. Someone I still love.

Rei...

I don’t want to waste another lifetime not telling you. I don’t want to lose you again, not when we’ve been given another chance. Mikako, I...

*She reaches out, gently taking Mikako’s hand in hers.

I know that this is very sudden, and I'm not sure if this is the proper way to go about this, but...

Will you stay with me, this time? Will you be with me, not just as my friend, but as someone I can call my partner? My love?

Are you...proposing to me?

Well, yes, but I...

...

Yes.

...

You know...I never really left you, Rei.

Huh?

Even after I died, I was always with you, in spirit. I couldn’t bear to leave you and everyone behind.

And now, in this life…I don’t want to be apart from you either.

Does that mean...?

*Mikako squeezes Rei’s hand gently, her lips curving into a soft smile.

Yes. I’ll stay by your side. As your friend...your partner...your love...whatever you need me to be.

...! Thank you...Thank you for giving me another chance to love you.

We have all the time in the world. Let's make the most of it.

*Rei sweeps Mikako into her arms, and kisses her passionately.

we r ginger liker solidarity.... yuuki/yuki likers and rei likers need to come together and be allied...

My identity hc for them

oh shit tumblr is auto formatting in bullet points thats fun. uhhh w/rei i pretty much like any combination of ace/aro spec + lesbian. 100% lesbian rei? aro lesbian rei? aroace rei? all epic all amazing. i started hc'ing this back in like.. vv early sdra days. and i think its just part of who i am now... i think she doesnt really experience much attraction in general and has a bit of a hard time labeling how she feels because. of her general emotional trauma. so tbh i can see her kinda rotating through labels? i think she keeps it very to her self tho. she doesn't like people assuming she's cishet but she also doesn't want to come out as straightn't, so she just snaps at people who try and drag her into convos about identity.

similarly i think she struggles with really.. going "wow this is so me this is exactly what i am" when it comes to gender identity. i think she's very.. "well im Definitely not a guy, and i dont think im anything else, so..." ie, she's more prone to defining herself by what she isn't than what she is. which is perfectly okay!!! i don't think she'd consider herself trans, but she may occasionally like the label genderqueer. (yes i know that trans people r anyone who's gender deviates from what they were told they should be, but while it is an umbrella term, people can decide if they like it for themselves a lot! and i don't think rei would really like any label other than "idk man its weird", which she likes to use on/off) again tho i dont think she's very into sharing that with people, at least as a teen.

Thoughts on their home life/family

im so curious what her time was like when she was all alone??? i think that's something thats fairly unexplored, is her time between her parents not being able to care for her, and her becoming self-sufficient. ultimately i dont have much to say here, i like how linuj handled her backstory, i just think it wouldve been cool to see more of it, not that there was any good place to write it in, but i love bonus modes and would like to see maybe how the dra survivors coped w/what they learned in the sixth trial in a bonus mode about how the kisa foundation became what it is now.

How i feel about their canonical writing/handling

mmm... tbh. i like rei, i think her growth from dra to sdra2 was handled well- she still feels like rei, while also serving her narrative role- ie. there's not much you can do when shawty gets exploded in the prologue and then has to play second fiddle to tsurugis viola of fucking evil. sadly, we can't do much with the kisa foundation and showing how rei and tsurugi have changed and have the pacing of the chapter still be intact, when we see rei, its mostly just her being voice of reason because someone has to give exposition on what the foundation knows while tsurugi has a meltdown. i think her development feels authentic and natural, if she maybe feels a biiit.. i dont know how to word it, but she almost feels a bit too calm? less snarky at points than i'd think she'd be, and than what i'd like to see. but again, we can explain that as being due to the role she has to play for the story.

ultimately, while not necessarily my cup of tea, i'm just not prone to latching onto characters like rei a whole lot! i def think she's handled well, oddly well for linuj in general, and v oddly well for a female character written by linuj. i like her, im just not brain rotted about her

The one thing i’d want to make canon about them

hmmmmm... im not gonna lie i can't really think of anything? after thinking about it while i typed up. essentially the whole rest of this post, i think it'd be cool if she and kabuya were friends after sdra2. yuuki is... .... ..........lets not talk about what hes up to, syobai and iroha are just a whole fucking mess. theyre a bit busy dealing with heads in boxes. and tsurugi is just sooo normal he's too normal really.

so i think they could meet and chat about how Fucking Insane the games were, in a way that other kg survivors wouldnt get, since they didnt have to deal with divine luck and what it does to people. also seeing as akane saved rei in dra and then. ya know. Soruko. i think that'd be a interesting convo for them to have, both kinda understanding more about akane taira. i think that'd be really neat!

My number one favorite ship for them

hm.... reikako by default of i dont think much about rei ships, and they have a significant amount of canon material. i do wonder though what their relationship was like pre-despair, it feels like a lot of the school life info we have is on utsuro or tsurugi? buuut yeah. also as kinda established i think rei is uncertain where she stands on attraction/her thoughts change a lot and. yeah. so this is less a romantic thing and moreso i want inside linujs brain so i can know what he thinks except he like. officially has stated he doesnt know shit abt sdra anymore which is SO UPSETTING

…Now everyone else i ship with them

i think rei/kizuna/kiyoka could be cute!!! also i kinda just like giving akane gfs, and i don't really think they'd be that compatible, but i think if they had a weird little queercoded friendship for like. the duration of one year during their stay at hpa, and it leaves akane feeling more confident and comfortable with herself as her own person, and leaves rei with a LOT of questions, while they also never really cross the line between friends and something more, that'd be cool and fun. just normal gals being pals things.

The thing i will NEVER ship

im so sorry. 2020 sdrainsta has made me incapable of terurei propaganda. i support people who ship it as a matter of fact im so glad we r now in a place where people can ship it or not ship it and everyone can just be fine and happy. but i dont think ill ever be able to see the vision.

a dynamic/relationship i wish was explored more (in canon, or in fandom)

i wish in sdra2 we saw more on the dynamic that grew between rei and mikako in dra. i think it'd be cool to see that discussed a bit more seeing how it was. mikakos in game memories that formed the basis for sora iirc.

thoughts on their design (appearance-wise)

mmm...... why the fuck did linuj use so much blue in the dra cast color palettes... i remember i had this dentist appointment that was really evil and like. literal hours longer than it was supposed to be, and to try and distract myself i went through the cast and counted who had blue in their design and who didnt. it took a long time because i was in so so so much pain but like. iirc its just mikako akane and yuki. and also mikako wears blue in ch4. so. THATS NOT RELEVANT THOUGH.

uhhhh. im not a huge fan of her outfit just because i dont like the skirt. her og design was a school uniform and i think it kinda shows and im not a huge fan of it? my brain keeps getting mixed up on the length of her skirt but yeah. its just so vibrant and pigmented and so is her hair and its like. the lower half of her fit just feels so high school uniform and i dont really like it. i think her hair is super cute in the bonus sketch (the just-woke-up one) on her character sheet tho.

i also don't really like her fit in sdra2. i think the labcoat is super nice (i like the ombre effect it looks good) and while its not too practical i dont hate the vest short skirt tights combo. but im not a fan of the color palette, its just so dark, so u have her bright hair and the bright coat, but the dark grey and black, in vertical stripes just kinda dominates it in my brain. and i don't really like it? i really dont like the grey with her hair.

she is very pretty. but im not a fan of the fits linuj puts her into

A music-related thought- a song that reminds me of them, or what their music taste is, etc

hmmm.. this is a very foreign concept to me but i dont think reis huge on music. i think for the most part she listens to songs she has memories associated with- she doesn't seem huge on the arts or. ya know. emotional connection? so i think while she wouldn't really vibe with anything particular of her own accord, listening to music which was playing when something emotional happened to her both improves the music, and also. helps her with being in touch with her emotions and letting herself feel. if that makes sense?

[kisasiblings]

sometimes i remember that in my au mikako and rei are rivals that bond over roasting tsurugi lol

mikako is excited to get to know the girl who was all over the internet due to her academic abilities but it quickly turns out she isnt too fond of reis attitude so at first they start off with the classic wlw hostility but grow to care about each other and fall in love

[leviadraws]
