[randoimago]

hi kat! hope you're having a great day! :D

may i ask for sigma, diana, junpei & akane (seperately) reacting to their s/o dying during the nonary game?

i hope you don't mind the angst, i just saw zero escape on your fandom list and had to request something for it :')

Fandom: Zero Escape

Character(s): Akane, Sigma, Diana, Junpei

Note(s): I don't mind! I don't remember fully how ZTD did the "these players are dead" so sorry if there are some mistakes in here!

Akane

When the announcement comes on and she sees that you have died on the board, she stays quiet. Carlos and Junpei are talking behind her, but she's tuning them out.

Perhaps this is what she deserves for what she's done. She's messed with the future and past before. She's ruined her relationship with Junpei and you ended up stuck in the middle. And now you're dead. This is what she deserves.

Akane continues on, however. She's silent as she does, lost in her thoughts that get louder and louder with pointing the blame at her.

Diana

She's always the one trying to stay positive. She tries to be optimistic for everyone, wants to keep the others going. Diana believes there's a way out for everyone, it just needs to be found.

But her resolve is shattered when she learns about what happened to you. She's confused with the information as the screen displays that you're dead. It doesn't show your body, just your face crossed out.

Diana refuses to believe it. She can't believe it. There's just... There's no way it's true! She won't even sit down to process it, she pushes Sigma and Phi to continue. She makes them keep going. Because she will not believe that you're gone.

Junpei

Junpei just stares as he hears the names of those that have died on the other teams. He is silent when he hears your name, his brain not processing what he heard. And then he starts to laugh.

Because of course! Of course you died! He finds his childhood friend, Akane and gets stuck in this "game", and now you're dead. Because why should anything good happen for him?!

He's understandably very temperamental. Doesn't even let Akane or Carlos say anything as he's just trying to find the next fucking puzzle to go through. Maybe if he's lucky, he'll die too so he can be with you.

Sigma

Sigma has a mix of emotions as he hears that you've died. He doesn't want to believe it, but with everything that's happened so far, he knows it's true. That you're dead.

He's pissed off and wants to punch something. But he also knows that the true culprit behind this game is still out there. So he takes a deep breath and calms himself for Phi and Diana's sake.

Once he gets out of here, then he'll mourn you. He'll become a cynical bastard like Junpei is, but for now, he has to stay strong and save who he can.

[meowsticmarvels]

who else up thinking about the 3-4 month gap between ZTD's D-END 1/C-END and the reactors going off. it isn't rly elaborated on much but i think whatever happens there is very obviously extremely horrific and tragic the whole time. it makes me crazy to think about. there's probably timelines where sigma and phi and anyone else vital to the project didn't make it to april. more in tags. it is crazy and i need to know peoples thoughts

Into a Lighter Dream - A Diana [Zero Escape] Fic

[Read on Ao3!]

Rated: M (16+) Zero Escape/Zero Time Dilemma Diana/Sigma (not the focus) Content Warnings: Standard Zero Time Dilemma Content Warning, Suicide Attempt, Suicide, Death of Children. Words: 2.5k

Summary: So the twins have been teleported. And then what of the four left behind? There is no one coming to save them. There is no hope of escape. They'll come to their own end, by their own hand, then.

A look into the after math of The Hope of Two ending.

–

It’s somewhat tricky, balancing a baby in one arm and holding a pencil in the other, but somehow Diana manages. Somehow Diana manages, she thinks, sums up most of her life pretty well. Somehow she manages her way through a marriage and a divorce, somehow she manages her way through a death game, and barely she manages the aftermath thereof. It’s strange though, because somehow it’s the waiting that’s the hardest. Those long 10 months, where the inky threads of death just streamed into the corners of her vision ever slightly more with each passing day. And yet, in some way, it was the most blissful she’d ever been. The first indulgence she’d truly had in an age, a love that felt sturdy when everything was rocking.

Musing on this, idly, Diana leans down and presses a gentle kiss to Phi’s forehead. She spares a moment of thought for her other daughter, the Phi sent back in time. And then again, to her son.

“Let them be safe. Let them find their happiness.” Diana whispers in her own head. It’s the same words she’s repeated to herself ever since she sent her children back, whisked away into a corner of space and time she’d never see.

But the Phi in her arms is the one who remained, still left behind. The only Phi left in this world, with her namesake having vanished. Again, Diana takes a moment to wish for that Phi’s happiness and safety, though the ache in her chest reminds her it’s fruitless.

Somewhere though, there must be a Phi living something different. Somewhere, Diana believes, she is living happily. Diana, Sigma, Phi and Delta, all peacefully in one place. No turmoil, no games, just the picture of a normal family.

This world is far far from that ideal. Diana feels a bit like an animal, laying down wounded. There’s a sense of peace washing over she recognizes as acceptance.

In a few hours, she will sleep. Following which, she does not expect to wake up.

Diana frowns down at the paper doily. It’s not exactly the best suicide note, but it’s not exactly a suicide note either. Everything’s half done here, half a life lived, half a romance she shares. What’s the point in worrying about it any more?

With the end so close, Diana finds her fears washed away. After living so much of her life in a constant drone of worry, it’s almost startling how still she can find herself.

Acceptance, even of her inevitable demise, can be a beautiful thing. The fading of her colours becomes a soft pastel, so it’s still beautiful, isn’t it?

Her pains have become nothing but a dull ache in the back of her mind. Yes, her stomach gnaws away at herself even as she tries to satiate it with water. She hasn’t eaten in a week, it’s unsurprising. But what had felt like her organs being pulled into a black hole at first has faded now. Not because she isn’t hungry, but because there’s nothing left she can do about it.

It’s just acceptance now. It’s all washing away.

The pencil slips out of Diana’s grasp as she finishes the note, rolling right off the table and onto the floor. There’s no reason to pick it up, so she leaves it. Let the lounge feel a bit lived in. Let there be prove she had lived for once in her life, even if only for a short time.

Diana slumps back against the couch, tucking Phi in closer to her chest. The baby stares back at her, bright wide eyes, taking in everything about her mother’s face. Diana smiles, giving her daughter another kiss on the head. She deserves so many more than Diana can give her. She deserves so much more than this.

They all do.

She’s too tired to mourn anymore. After the mania and madness of the past 10 months, it’s just… going to end. And it’s a strange feeling, because in some ways this had been the primary thought in her mind ever since Sigma had told her about the food supplies. Even with everything, the fights, the sex, her own children- every thought she had was accompanied by a shadow, a reminder that soon, it would all go away.

If there’s one comfort Diana can take, beyond knowing that Sigma will be there with her, is that they’re taking it into their own hands. Agency is a comfort, particularly in a place like this.

(In the back of her mind, she knows she never had any true agency. She knows everything, each step she takes, the precise positioning of each molecule of her body holds the exact space in time someone had calculated for. It makes her feel like each of those atoms are scratching up against each other, buzzing with an urge to lurch, to send reality spinning out of place, if only to be free for a fraction of a second.)

Phi fusses in Diana’s arms, somewhat restless. She’s not fussy, not usually, though Diana supposes she doesn’t have much ground to stand on with that claim. Phi is merely days old. Still, Diana just knows. She’s her baby, of course she knows. For everything she’d studied, for all the scientific data she’d memorized in college, for every dissertation she’d read, nothing compared to really holding her own daughter in her arms and knowing the power of a mother’s love was both real and magic.

She’s being far too idealistic than she has any right to be, but she’s earned the right to have a little misguided optimism by now.

A mother’s love is real. A mother’s love is magic. And with her magic, Diana rocks side to side, rocking Phi with her, and whispers her spell.

“Let them be safe. Let them find their happiness.”

Maybe she spends a few minutes in that daze, a murmured half lullaby, maybe longer.

It’s only when Sigma sits down next to her, wrapping an arm around her shoulder and pulling her in a touch closer, that she’s pulled out of reverie.

Once it would’ve startled her, but there’s something about Sigma’s embrace that she finds herself relaxing into without even thinking about it. If Diana ever mentioned it to Sigma, she’s sure he’d explain it as the morphogenetic field, her body remembering the other lives they’d had together, or such and so. And perhaps that is the case. Diana won’t rule it out. Personally, however, she’d pinpoint the cause as something simpler.

Sigma makes her feel safe. That’s all.

“Everything’s set up,” Sigma murmurs, pressing his words to the crown of Diana’s head. “If you’re ready.”

How do you ready yourself for something like this? No matter how much she’d been preparing for this, mentally or physically, she’d never be ready.

But the note she’d been writing was finished, and that was all that was left to complete, so in that sense…

“Mmhm.”

She can’t get the words out, but she nods anyway, humming in affirmative.

Sigma squeezes her a little tighter.

“We’re going together. Don’t worry.”

The worry has long since bled out of Diana, pooled at her feet and spilled across the floor. So she won’t worry. She won’t.

She stands, slowly so as not to disturb Phi too much. Sigma follows, bringing his arm down to help support Delta, carried on his right shoulder. It’s probably not the safest way to hold him, but it won’t matter soon.

They walk out slowly, Diana casting glances around each part of the room as she bids it farewell. It’s not exactly like she’ll miss this place, after everything she’s been through here, but in someways, she supposes she will. Contradictions like that only make sense in a place like this.

“It was a good letter.” Sigma whispers, in lieu of a farewell to the space. “You did good.”

Diana nods. She’s appreciative, and flattered, but it’s getting difficult to express it.

And slowly, step by step, they make their way through the halls until finally. The last room. The relaxation room.

Diana steps in carefully, minding the large box-shaped contraption set up on the floor. It resembles a fog machine, in fact most of it was a fog machine, but with the modifications Sigma has made… it couldn’t be called that anymore. It’s function had changed, the weight of it’s worth was altered. No going back from that.

A long black cord runs out from it, up towards one of the beds in the corner. A chunky “on/off” switch breaks off the clean line of the cable, sitting right at the foot of the bed.

Diana tries not to think about it yet. Not quite yet. She turns her attention to the dial on the wall.

“What environment would you like?” She asks, though they have already had this conversation several times, and settled on an answer long ago.

“The sky pattern.” Sigma answers, though Diana’s fingers have already begun to twist the knob. It clicks, clicks, and the walls, floor, and ceiling all distort around them until finally coming to the sky pattern. Diana’s favourite, even now.

The clouds soar past them, off into a non-existent distance. Freedom that has never been, and never will be.

“Perfect.” Diana murmurs.  “Shall we go, then?”

Sigma nods.

Carefully across the room now, Diana keeps away from the walls though she knows the sky is only fake, the drop off into the sky unreal.

(She’d tried it once, less than a month into confinement and in a drunken haze. Turned the pattern to clouds and stood near the edges. Closed her eyes and let herself tilt, teeter forward. Willed herself, begged for something to just slip. Slammed her head against the wall and sunk to the ground, sobbing. Hits her head against it again. Again. Maybe this time something will change. But it doesn’t, it never does. Until Sigma had found her, and simply carried her back to the lounge, lying her to rest on the couch. He’d been so gentle. So warm. She’d almost considered doing it again just to feel that kind of embrace.)

Sigma passes Delta over to Diana, and she settles into the hold. She clutches both her children to her chest, feeling the miniscule sound; their hearts beating in sync.

“Let them be safe. Let them find their happiness.” She thinks without even trying, even when she knows it’s got to be too late.

Sigma settles down onto the relaxation room bed, taking a moment to position himself comfortably. Carefully, he keeps the “on/off” switch tucked into his right hand, but doesn’t hit the switch just yet.

“Join me,” He says once he’s settled, “Love.” He finishes, and Diana’s heart could just break in two when he talks like that. It’s enough to make her want to slap him, try and claw her way out just a little more.

But… Diana is so tired. And so hungry.

Gently, Diana positions herself tucked into Sigma’s body, pressed so close they might as well have been one person. Her head rests on his shoulder, positioned so that she could look into his eyes. Phi lies against her chest, and Delta is shuffled over so most of his body lies on Sigma’s.

Sigma’s embrace is warm and tight, as he reaches his left arm around his family. Diana feels, if just for a moment, that everything was worth it if she got to hold this second within herself.

“Ready?”

“One second…”

Diana tucks her hand into her shirt, pulling out the necklace she’d kept tucked away. Her fingers are shaking a bit, so it takes a bit of effort, but she manages. Slowly, clumsily, Diana turns the key for the bluebird music box. And turns. And turns. She turns until the box cannot possibly take anymore, and the springs inside the device whine in protest. Then, she releases it, and tinny music notes begin to fill the room.

Sigma smiles quietly.

“Needed a bit of mood music?”

“Ha ha.” Diana deadpans, but she’s smiling at him, “I just… wanted to listen to it one more time.”

“I know.”

There’s a moment of silence, or rather, the quiet melody of a music box filling such. Phi’s eyes widen a bit as the tune goes through, seemingly enamoured by the sound.

“I’m ready.” Diana whispers, before she can change her mind. So before anyone can say anything else, Sigma flicks the switch from “off” to “on”, and the room begins to fill with Soporil B.

“This’ll keep us out for… how long?” Diana whispers, voice nestling in between the melody and the quiet fssshh of the Soporil smoke machine.

“The canister I found in the transporter room had approximately… 25 litres in it, give or take, and the machine is set to run at steady intervals to prevent it from burning out the supply.” Sigma replied, whispering the explanation in Diana’s ear, “As we are already exhausted mentally and physically, and none of us have eaten or drank in the past few days, it should knock us out pretty hard.”

It’s not the Soporil that does the killing, Diana knows. It’s the starvation, and primarily, dehydration they’re banking on. Collapse the internal organs, let heart failure kick in. Sleep through all of it. That had been the plan ever since Sigma had managed to find the canister of Soporil in the transporter room, tucked in a lower cabinet. It was strange how they hadn’t noticed it before. Almost as if it had been placed there deliberately after it had been clear there was no chance of complete survival. Even when the plan had been to transport themselves, not their children, they��d worked to set this up for those left behind.

If it was deliberate, just Zero cleaning up close ends, then Diana supposes she’s grateful it’s something cleaner like this. Slow, maybe, and even in a haze of drugged-up dreams, she’s sure the pain won’t completely vanish… but it’s better this way. Better to go together, to dream anything, and simply slip further into that dream until nothing remains.

Diana blinks.

It’s a slower thing than she’s used to, the weight of her eyelids grows stronger with each moment.

“Ss-Sigma.” Diana says, words starting to slur slightly, “I love you.”

Sigma just hums quietly, for a moment. Then,

“I love you too, Diana.”

“I love you.” Diana repeats. “I love you. I love you. I wantta be the last- last thing… I say. You… and Delta and Phi, I- I love you. I love you.”

It’s such a messy love. She’d call it broken, but that would imply there was ever a time that what they held wasn’t tattered. It’s always been like this. A bit charred and melting. Like a moment frozen in time, like a snow globe, like a bird in a cage, the sort of love captured in this bubble. But it’s really love. The details are blurring away in the Soporil fog.

The music box notes distort and shift, they twirl into birds songs on the breeze. Diana doesn’t feel the weight of Sigma’s arms, of Phi lying on her chest. Her body dissolves along with them, until they’re all nothingness together.

Maybe she’s dead now. Maybe she’s still dying. It’s all a fog. It’s all fog.

The play is over now. The story is done.

It was all for nothing, and yet it was so integral, to everything.

The actors have bowed; said their goodnights. The lights on the stage have all shut off.

One day, Diana thinks, someone might find them. Four bodies in a state of decay, find their bones all on top of each other and not be able to tell who is who.

But for now, for the rest of her life, Diana listens to that music box. To the sound of her family breathing.

Her thoughts don’t make sense anymore. Her mind is a cloud, the room is a cloud, it’s all a harmony of abstractions.

It’s a field of white.

It’s the absence of anything.

It’s over now.

…

Goodnight.

So true though!! I'll even admit it, I could NEVER expect Mizuki's little discourse about LGBTQ+ people like, happening. It's so uncommon seeing it in JP media, and that was so... Wow. Very much to my face, but I liked it! Lots!

Because then you see how much Uchikoshi really cares about this topic and its community. Even Mama, who you can notice very quickly how they're an "okama stereotype" in appearance, Mama is a character on their own. They're a person. Beyond whatever they identify as, and everyone respects them. And I like Mama a lot in AITSF (AINI... Well... That's Surely A Game Huh!)

Same with our two beloved gay men (to avoid spoilers). Love love love them so much. That one scene when one of them says it was all for love? You know that one. So good!!!

It's just so nice to see. And I love how close Uchikoshi is to his community. Still not over the "do you think Snake is gay?" poll 😭😭😭

Guh, I just like AITSF so much...

I feel like aitsf is a good example of

A bit confused but but god they got the spirit regarding lgbt topics

There is no subtle wink wink moments of are they aren't they gay

The game's text is straight up, she is trans, he has a male lover, this character is in lgbt-support groups

And yeah some stuff is worded wonky or sounds weird when translated to english/passes through the cultural divide

But idk, you can still see that the heart is in the right place

[odetteeternia]

Just out of reach

My favourite ship in Zero Escape is Sigma x Diana, but I love the dynamic between Junpei and Akane. People say how Akane’s kind persona is only a lie in the first game, but they forget that both Akane’s younger self experienced that event too. I like to think not only is her personality but relationship with Junpei complex. She clearly likes him, yet she chooses her mission over her love for him. It’s sad to imagine those millions of failed timelines where she is forced to leave Junpei to stay at the moon.

Right now, I feel like there is something missing with my artwork, but I don’t know what it is. I hate shading clothing and avoid it so maybe that is the issue. I might experiment in the future, but right now I’m happy-ish with my art style. It’s a little awkward that I changed my username so my previous posts look possibly reposted… Well, I hope not, at least.

[colourful-void]

hi yes sorry to send you anon like that but tumblr won't let me reply to posts so. I get where you're coming from but (presumably) Seanbots disabled the bomb, so Diana & Sigma can't blow up the X-door. In the twins ending they explore D-ward once again and Diana says that she remembers the bomb having balls, but they were obviously removed since. Also going out on a limb here, but it's not a stretch to assume that since Delta made sure the bomb would be disabled, he would ensure that his parents don't wander off where they're not supposed to as well. Maybe by making the door in the Locker room unopenable or something, but that bit is just a theory, of course. Sorry for nitpicking like that once again!

Yeah no problem!! I wanted to discuss it so thank you!!

I’d totally forgotten the bomb had been disabled , thank you! And yeah if the bomb was disabled, then the door being perma shut or something makes sense too! HOWEVER!! My point about the pantry still stands! They may not be able to escape but they could delay their starvation for longer than 10 months!

That is of course assuming the pantry ever has real food behind the jello puzzle to begin with.

And knowing that the bots do disable the bomb (but not the walls of the relaxation room, the drain remote in the lockers) makes me wonder what exactly does and does not have functionality in the twins ending! It’s super interesting to me, even if my initial speculation is wrong, I just like to think about the world of thst ending!!

Thank you!!

Round 1, Matchup 18

[fictionkinfessions]

For the fic counts ask game: There's 1,193 Zero Escape fics on Ao3. 296 that have Sigma (which is pretty funny how low it is, actually, I guess people are mostly focused on the cast of 999?). Most ZE fics aren't ship fics which is pretty cool, but of those, that are, there are 120 for Sigma/Diana, and only 7 for Sigma/Luna (and they're all under 2k words. Half of them are under 1k). Technically I'm canon-divergent enough you could make a case that I'm not even in any fics at all, though, I guess. Still kind of a bummer that everyone ships me with somebody I never actually met.

could i request cuddling headcanons for sigma, diana, junpei and akane (zero time dilemma)?

Cuddling Headcanons

Fandom: Zero Escape

Character(s): Sigma Klin, Diana, Junpei, Akane

Type of Request: Headcanons

Warning: A tad suggestive for Sigma's part. Nothing explicitly said, but if you read between the lines, you'll know.

Note(s): I love these four very much, I'm happy to write this!!

Akane

She raises an eyebrow at you whenever you want to cuddle. She's not against it, but it just depends on what she's doing at the time since she can be pretty busy.

Akane likes to keep busy and so she's happy to let you cuddle next to her, but she usually has a book or journal in her hands to write on. You can convince her to put it away and just hold you, but she usually has something to do if you fall asleep on her.

If she is just holding you while cuddling then she likes to talk about different things. Might have fun bringing up different conspiracy theories or logic puzzles just to talk them out. If you end up with a headache thinking about any of it then she giggles and apologizes with a smile.

Diana

Diana gives a bright smile anytime you want to cuddle with her. She knows that there is a time and place, but if she's able then she's glad to curl up next to you instead.

She likes to hold your hand while you cuddle and talk about your day. She just likes cuddling and talking with you softly about all kinds of different things.

She's fine if you both end up falling asleep cuddling. It's not often she's so relaxed that she can just sleep, but she doesn't complain. There's a few time when she panics a tad when she wakes up because she did have plans and lost track of time cuddling you. She's not upset at you, but can't help but feel guilty.

Junpei

He lazily throws an arm around you just to hold you close. If you wrap your arms around him to cuddle more, he rolls his eyes playfully and teases you.

Junpei does like to cuddle, but he's got to be cool and edgy so you're get lots of jokes and teasing from him. You might have to tell him to shut up, which causes more chuckles but he does stay quiet as he holds you.

Honestly, he grows very soft as he holds you. He can't help but just stare at you, getting lost in thought. It's a tad scary with how quiet he gets, but he can't help it. This is a moment of peace that he really needs and treasures.

Sigma

His brain freezes for a second when you request cuddles before you get a big grin and he opens his arms wide for you. A big fan of physical contact of all forms.

Probably the type to hold you close to his chest, letting you cuddle on top of him as he massages your back or smells you a little, wanting to take in your scent.

Sigma actually tries to keep his perverted comments to himself, but it's rather hard since you're on top of him. If you say anything, then he teases you with, "Cuddling time is sacred and shall not be spoiled." But he's happy to oblige to any other suggestions that might be made.

[meowsticmarvels]

sorry okay i've ranted about this on twt before but phi's role in ztd is just... odd to me. the reveal with her being related to delta (and also sigma and diana) is placed as one of the biggest ones like literally one of the reveals that delta says during final decision is phi's status as a double clone. and i do like her having a fucked up existence being a living paradox and being not meant to exist and all that. its fukcing interesting and i love it and talk about it a lot. but it's also just. for someone who's positioned as one of the most important characters to the plot as to WHY a lot of things happen she's also.... barely in the game? she's basically just in the game to be dead or To Be Born which is like. okay. something could be said about her lack of agency in everything but it ISNT said so like? and plus her not being there for that much of it takes away a bit of the weight of the reveal imo. like it's not as powerful if she had a bit more development/screentime to justify it and have a good payoff in my opinion i think. clearly im abnormal about phi so it was crazy for ME but it's just. i don't know. even for me it doesnt feel strong without that. from a writing perspective it makes a bit more sense to put the weight of a reveal as great as that on a character who already got substantial development or buildup to justify it. the most i CAN say is the existence of the fire fragment because that part is genuinely one of my favorite parts of the game (and also the flashback with phi and diana @ dcom) but it jsut. i don't know!

i've always thought and interpreted from her dialogue in both games that she's got a really weird sense of identity (calls herself "not a normal human being" in ztd, compares herself to a variable or an x-factor in vlr, also seems to believe diana and sigma's lives are worth more than hers) which could be interesting!!! and how her existing situation with her parents is when combined with the NEW information - did they keep the fact that she was an experiment as an infant from her for her entire life? like it couldve been INTERESTING. and still kinda is imo but it's just a weird writing decision to write her out of so much of the plot while ALSO wanitng her to be important at the same time. id ont know if this makes any sense to anyone but its just like. Okay? Sure?
