Roulette is Nagito x Gundham. Though weirdly I feel like Nagito x Gundham x Sonia could also be kind of fun if you go with the interpretation that Nagito is a long lost distant cousin of Sonia's. Gundham with his Dark Queen on one side and his Prince of Fortune on the other...Anyway if you do ever draw something for those rarepairs, I feel like Komazumi domestic cuteness would go great with your style. Like Mahiru hugging Nagito from behind while he's doing dishes or something like that.

Once again sorry for answering late, I forgot 😭

Oh, I see! Honestly, I think I like most of the ships with Nagito and his classmates (the only exceptions are Hanamura because yeah, and Mikan because I enjoy them being bitter friends/haters of each other much more flgtjgkg. Tho I used to be a big komamiki fan eheh). I can see how Nagito and Gundham would work! They’re both considered creeps and have a lot in common, especially in the area of mystical and kinda occult things

Oh and with Sonia too! I love both Sondam and (I’m not a fan of Komaeda and Sonia being relatives hc, sorry flggkg) Sonmaeda (does it have a ship name? Idk now it has), and them all being together makes so much sense they all seem to have similar interests and also I see Sonia and Gundham some of the few people in Komaeda’s class who don’t hate him and might enjoy being around him from the very beginning. They all are kinda seen as ”freaks" due to their unusual interests, I think they would all get each other! Actually, this is a friend group (if talking about them in platonic sense) I prefer for Komaeda instead of Souda and Kuyuzuru. Idk I can see them having a lot of familiar experiences and interests. I can see them sitting in a library and reading mystery or detective stories!

Aw, this komazumi idea sounds so nice! I really would love to draw it sometime ^^ Thank you!

Wow, I really wrote a lot hlhkhh. Sorry I just love talking about character dynamics a lot. Thank you for the ask and hope you’re still around, anon <3

Some sonmaeda cousins headcanon because I'm bored:

They have no idea that they're cousins until Sonia invited the entire 77th + Hinata to Novoselic

The King was confused at first when he saw Nagito because "who is this lad who looks and acts a whole lot like my dead sister who decided to run away to Japan with her star-crossed lover?" Then Sonia introduces them and "oh."

Everyone is surprised because there's no way dainty elegant Sonia can be related to that guy! Komaeda's all weird and Sonia's just perfect!

Hinata is astounded that Souda can say those words right in front of Sonia's dad, and apparently Komaeda's uncle. Say what you want about Souda but that guy sure got some ba- nope. Nevermind. There he goes. Crying underneath his beanie again, realizing what he just said. Rip in pieces Souda

Now that they thought long and hard about it, Sonia and Nagito do tend to have similarities, maybe they are kinda related

Both are terrible cooks. Sonia solely because "where is the saffron?" "What the hell's that?" "Oh. Um... then what about white truffles? Grains of paradise???? Sumac??????" Meanwhile Komaeda is just "no we can't use knives, you'll hurt yourself Hinata-kun! Stoves? Fires are dangerous! What do you mean 'how are we going to cook'? We have a toaster right here! A perfectly safe toast- ah yes. I forgot about the fire detector. Of course. As expected of someone-"

They tend to have language offs with each other. Sonia wins by a landslide with her thirty languages but Komaeda sure isn't that far behind. How that guy knows all those languages nobody knows ("I just enjoy reading books before they're translated"). Nobody knows.

Their similarities goes on and on and everyone is ashamed to not notice until now (it definitely has nothing to do with how much they snubbed Komaeda until recently shut up)

[magioftheseas]

42 with Komaeda and Sonia? (Like your cousin au??)

Ah, I’ll try.

(This isn’t going to be scary at all.)

42. Inspired by modern horror. (Paranormal Activity, Silent Hill, The Possession, the Saw franchise, etc.)

“Ooh, cousin, can you feel the horror?!”

“It’s…very dusty and unsettling, yes.”

Although it’s hard to be unsettled when Sonia-san’s looking at all this with such sparkling eyes.

Personally, Komaeda was uninterested in the broken down insides. The cracks in the walls and floors. The dusty furniture. A few crooked paintings. Shattered remains of vases and dishes.

“So spooky!” Sonia squealed, fawning over one of the broken windows. “Yes, this place is very, very abandoned! A fitting breeding ground for spectors and demons alike!!”

“Specters, you mean?” Komaeda asks, fiddling with a trinket. He’s distracted by a strange doll with a music box attached. “So what happened to the family here?”

“A most gruesome murder!” Sonia exclaimed. “A most horrifying scene!”

“Mm, hmm.” Komaeda twists the key, and listens to the song that plays. “This is… The Rose…right?”

“Ooh! Terrifying!”

“Aha, I guess. It’s cute, at least.” Komaeda sets the doll aside as the song dies off, turning back to Sonia for a moment. “So what are you hoping to find again?”

“A ghost! Or a demon! I’ve yet to see one! And this place is supposedly haunted!”

“Ah, I see… Well, let’s do our best to search, then…”

“Yes, yes, HELL yes!!!”

“Haha, just be…” Komaeda trails off. “Careful…? Ah, the doll is playing its song again.”

“That’s a great sign, cousin! Atmosphere! Fucking perfect!”

“…yeah, it’s…” Komaeda stops when he turns to Sonia. Over her shoulder, while she’s grinning with twinkling excitement, something stands behind her. His head tilts. “Curious.”

When Sonia is yanked back, she practically squeals with delight.

“Sonia-san…!”

Komaeda is left alone, staring down a dark, broken hallway, heartbeat pounding in his ears.

“Well, that’s a tad concerning.”

And yet… Exciting…!

[hcpefulmarshmallow]

Nagito of course

Send A Character

favorite thing about them: All those years of being alone, abused and tortured made him kind. He cares so much about everything around him all the time, it’s amazing and exhausting all at once. We spend some time in his POV during the game and island mode, and all he thinks about is what he can do for everyone else. 

least favorite thing about them: The weird habit in canon of deliberately characterizing him as someone who goes full HOpE!!1! in response to certain situations but is otherwise capable of a wide range of moods and feelings and is basically a human being, then having subsequent characterizations & fan works be like, “nah jk he’s just a creepy asshole”. Keep that shit away from me. 

favorite line: There are so many, I’ve literally typed this answer a million times because I keep thinking of different ones. Instead, I will offer a random quote and run away to the next question:❝Being in such a quiet place with you... Huh, that’s weird... Now it’s not that calming anymore...❞ This fool.

brOTP: I’m kind of living for the Nagito/Fuyuhiko bromance in the OVA. Give me a friend who will absolutely call Nagito out on his bullshit while simultaneously making an effort to understand where he comes from, accommodate his illnesses, and absolutely defend him to the death if someone tries to pick on him. 

OTP: I have…Many of these. The main ones on this blog right now are Gunmaeda and Celemaeda, but I’m always a here for some well done Hinakoma, Komanami, Sonmaeda, literally any ship that involves Nagito being loved and taken care of the way he deserves, and getting to be with someone he loves. I just want the best for him, okay?

nOTP: Junkomaeda, but it’’s serious. And, conversely to the answer above, all the ships that pair him with someone who has nothing but outright contempt for him. 

random headcanon: An ideal date would be going to different pet shops and pretending to be in the market for a pet so he can play with all the puppies. 

unpopular opinion: It’s really unfair to portray Nagito as someone who is a perfect, pure bagel baby, but it’s also really unfair to portray him as a deranged, sexy psychopath. He’s just a guy, people. A very lonely, very mentally ill boy with terrible coping mechanisms. I feel like that gets forgotten too much. 

song i associate with them: Aside from all the ones Megumi wrote for him…This Song gives me highkey vibes for the part in the anime where his plane crashes and he’s stranded alone (and nobody even cares, wtf). To me, it’s less a death fantasy, and more a retrospective from someone who feels like they didn’t get to do what they wanted to do, that they never expected to anyway, and the best thing they can say about their life is that “at least I’m not leaving behind a mess.” …Wow, this is sad. 

favorite picture of them: I could never pick just one, but allow me to present, for you consideration, a happy boy:

[collegiate-trash]

Reason why I like the sonmaeda cousins theory:

Sonia, distraught over tea: the council believes that my union with Gundham shall bring forth impure blood for our line

Nagito: hmm, there is only one way to solve this

Sonia: you are going to ask me to marry you so that our offspring will have a pure blood and thereby appease the council?

Nagito: wha- No. I'm going to ask you to kill me! That way, regardless of what happens, they'll have to crown you because you're the only one left who can inherit the throne

Sonia: oh that makes sense

Nagito: :)

Sonia: wait a minute...! I am not killing you!

Nagito: worth the shot

[collegiate-trash]

Pls tell me more about SonMaeda cousins (or where I can find more!)

!!!

I was actually in the process of writing something for it so there’s that, buuuut it was more on the Komaeda family dynamics so… have this instead! So sorry if it’s a bit lengthy, I kinda lost track of things. Hope the wait was worth it lmao

When Frederick saw his sister smile at the handsome ambassador from Japan, he knew she was in love.

Sophia’s eyes were shining in a way that reminded him of starlight. It was unfiltered adoration, one she only gives to her books and her family. Rarely does she smile as carefree as she does to that ambassador. Fritz hoped against all odds that it would stay.

When Frederick heard of his father finding out about his sister’s affair, he knew she was a goner.

Their father was a terrible man. Despite being the crowned heir, the king has done nothing but make his sister’s life miserable. And for what? Her gender? Her beliefs? It wasn’t Sophia’s fault that she was a well-read lady. It most definitely wasn’t her fault no one could stand up against her razor sharp wit.

Frederick admired his sister greatly. There was no one he confided most than her, and the knowledge that she has to leave soon or risk being imprisoned in the place she once called home was heartbreaking.

When Frederick read his sister’s letter, he knew he made the right decision.

He ensured that Sophia would be able to safely leave the kingdom that day. They left when the moon was at its highest, and the populace at their weariest. It was a cloak and dagger affair; with Fritz risking the sole reason he was safe under their father’s rule, and Sophie fearing for the reason she was fleeing in the first place.

He vowed that he would find a way to allow her sister to come back home, and he would make sure of it. Frederick would do all he could so that he would be able to meet the child in his sister’s letters.

When Frederick found out about Sophia’s death, he felt fear grip him unlike any he has felt before.

It was a freak accident. A meteor crashing on a hijacked plane. The news was received with bated breath. ‘Dead on the spot’, they said. ‘No chances of revival.’ Frederick was numb, frozen upon his throne. His thoughts rushed to the child his sister has grown so fond off. ‘What of the boy?’ he asked. ‘Is he alright?’

No one was able to give the king a definitive answer. All leads regarding his nephew ended with nothing. No clue where the boy went, no idea of his fate.

Fritz shut himself inside Sophie’s room, not leaving until the sun has fully set. When he came out, the change was imminent in the air. The great king of Novoselic has lost all vibrancy in his eyes.

When Sonia told her father of the mysterious classmate she has, she saw him become alive for the first time.

Her father perked up when she recalled how Komaeda-san keeps on looking out for her. “Komaeda, you say?”

Sonia nodded, brimming with excitement at the prospect of her father being interested in her friends. “Nagito Komaeda-san is quite the character but he has been nothing but a great friend to me.” She reached for her phone, etiquette be damned, and showed him a picture.

It was a rare one, given that Komaeda doesn’t seem to enjoy having his picture taken, but it was the best one Sonia has of her friend. It features the entire class during their surprise party for Komaeda’s birthday. Everyone was smiling happily and Sonia treasures the photograph very much.

Sonia snapped out of her musings when she heard her father mumble. She turned and saw her father trying in vain to hold of tears. “…Father?”

“Sonia, darling, there is something I must tell you…”

[magioftheseas]

Platonic Sonia/Komaeda Royalty AU please?

MORE OF THE “KOMAEDA IS SONIA’S DISTANT RELATIVE” AU I FUCKING LOVE THAT ONE

Komaeda is very much not used at all to the castle (because of all the people there) so Sonia accompanies him a lot.

Sonia tried to assign him a servant that can help ease him in but Komaeda gets really skittish and anxious around them so it’s a slow work in progress.

Komaeda still can’t look directly at Sonia’s parents but is touched by how patient and understanding they are. He was very ashamed he ended up crying at the royal dinner but Sonia very kindly comforted him afterwards.

Komaeda still vastly prefers designing his own clothes and Sonia actually excitedly wants to try doing the same for herself. It’s a disaster. They both have fun. The royal seamstress tries not to cry because those two really are having a lot of fun.

Sonia royally orders Hinata to hunt down a golden Makango as her tradition states if he wishes to “court” Komaeda and Komaeda tries to sway her to no avail. RIP Hinata.

[magioftheseas]

Sonia and Komaeda as friends for sfw 12 pls? I never knew I needed this brotp until now.

Remember that theory that Komaeda and Sonia are distantly related?

A lot of people don’t but I do and that theory is my friend.

12. family

“But oh, cousin, you simply must!”

“L-Like I said it’s impossible…! Trash like me in your royal castle would be…such…such an affront!”

“But you are family!” Sonia pressed. “Shared royal blood runs through our veins! Thus you simply must attend the royal dinner!”

“I-I… I-It is…a strange coincidence…but… My parents abandoned their royal duties…right…? So, um…” Komaeda fidgeted with his fingers. “Wouldn’t I be…even unsightlier there…?”

“We extend forgiveness to you, Nagito-san!” He flinched at the use of his given name and couldn’t help but feel even more flustered than before. “Your parents’ decisions are not your own! Thus, you deserve a chance!”

“…a chance…” he mused and then shook his head. “N-No, it wouldn’t be right…”

“Oh come the FUCK on! Jesus Christ! It’s important to spend time with family, Nagito-san!”

“Sonia-san, with all due respect, we’re…we’re not really…”

She took his hands and squeezed firmly.

“We’re cousins. I was not aware before and now I must apologize. I will do my best to make up for the years of absence.”

“It’s not your fault…”

“At least meet everyone?” she asked. “They would…like to meet you. If I cannot introduce you as my cousin, then at least my friend.”

“A-Ah…” Komaeda ducked his head meekly. “Um…”

“It’ll be a hella good time! We can eat carrot beef, Novoselic’s delicacy, and watch the most amazing of dramas! And then we can stay up all night doing nails and braiding hair!”

“…staying up all night… You shouldn’t say that where people can hear… They’d get the wrong idea…”

“Fuck them!” Sonia exclaimed cheerily. “Like I give a damn!”

Komaeda snorted, laughing a little.

Well, of course… She is a princess after all…

“…Mmm… If Sonia-san orders it, then…”

“Oh,” Sonia pulled away. “Do not feel forced, Nagito-san. Think it over. It is an offer, not an order.”

“I… Oh…” His gaze and smile dropped, but she smiled brightly at him.

“…Please, think it over?”

All he could do then was nod mutely.

[magioftheseas]

Dancing for Sonia & Komaeda as friends please, if you're still taking requests? Happy Holidays 🎄💖

Yes.

15. dancing

“Nagito-san,” she hummed, taking his hand and tugging him along. “You have danced before a few times, yes?”

“Not for years,” Komaeda laughed. “The last time was in elementary school. I’m terribly rusty.”

“It is no problem-o!”

She placed his hand on her waist. He blinked a few times as she took his other hand with a firm squeeze.

“Follow my lead, Nagito-san.”

With that, she stepped.

“One, two. One, two. One, two, three. One, two, thee. Stop, step, and…” She twirled him around and dipped. “Like so.”

Komaeda blinked up at her with wide eyes.

“Ah, I see…” Sonia pulled him up, and he laughed. “But… I don’t think I’ll be dipping you, Sonia-san.”

“That is alright!” she chirped. “Dipping is quite difficult! It is very…up there!”

He nodded in return.

I also just don’t feel comfortable dipping a princess.

Though… Sonia was a bit more to him than that, now.

“Cousin, why don’t you lead?”

Cousin…

“Um… I-I’ll try, Sonia-san…”

[magioftheseas]

If you're still taking requests, could you do Komaeda & Sonia as friends for sfw 10 (shopping)?

Okay!

10. shopping

“Streamers! Any party would be a helluva good time with streamers! And champagne! Hell yes!”

“We’re still not old enough to drink, Sonia-san,” he reminded her kindly.

Sonia blinked at him, and then exhaled in understanding.

“Ohhh, yes, people here tend to be…ah, what’s the word… Soft pounds! Verily sorry. That sucks hella.”

Komaeda’s smile barley twitched.

“It’s just irresponsible,” he said. “And you do know how our classmates get. Alcohol could be…hmmm…overwhelming…”

“Oh…” Sonia set the bottle down with a look of disgust. “Quite right. I would rather not Souda-san get shitfaced.”

…poor Souda-kun…

“You’ve been a good help, that said, Komaeda-san!” she chirped. “I just knew you would be of great assistance in preparing for the party!”

“Oh no, no, I’m always happy to help the talented,” he said, chuckling and waving his hands. “It’s the very least scum like me could do!”

“Stop that!” Sonia ordered him and he immediately shut up. “I decree there is to be no deprecating in my presence!”

“Y… Yes, Sonia-san…”

“We are friends,” Sonia sighed. “It is quite unpleasant to hear…”

Komaeda nearly had a heart attack then and there.

“F… Friends?” he squeaked.

“Of course!” Again, Sonia looked firm and stern. “Do you have a fucking problem?!”

“G-Goodness!” Komaeda squealed. “Sonia-san’s just too much~!”

“…I do not mean to overwhelm,” she sighed. “We…are friends, Komaeda-san.”

“I-I…” Komaeda blushed but nodded cheerily. “W-Whatever you say…”

The shelf behind them collapsed onto their cart.

[magioftheseas]

Ice skating for Sonia & Komaeda but as friends?

Yeye.

3. ice skating

“Komaeda-san…” His grip tightened on the handrail as she skated up to him, blinking wide curious gray-blues. “Do you not wish to skate with us?”

“Ah…” Komaeda looked over nervously towards various members of their class. Saionji was unsurprisingly eager to show off, Mioda was ready to imitate her even as she would trip and fall on her face as a result. Koizumi helped Mioda up, of course, and Souda had tripped so often that he was nursing a broken nose. But Nidai and Owari were enjoying themselves, at least. “I…rather not…”

He thought of the ice rink cracking down the middle the second he pushed himself away from the wall, the crack splitting open and trapping his unsuspecting classmates.

“Oh, come now!” Sonia exclaimed. “You wish to skate, do you not?”

“I prefer watching,” he laughed. “Skating is a beautiful series of motions, from gliding over the surface to how the body shifts and bends, sometimes so fluidly…”

“Ooh, I agree!” Sonia exclaimed with a clap her her hands. “Ice skating is not an activity often enjoyed in Novoselic but it is quite beautiful! Especially with how the ice scrapes and splits!”

“…Splits…” Sonia’s smile was splitting her face right now, her eyes sparkling. “Yes, that is despairing. Despair leads to hope…!”

Sonia just laughs and takes his hand.

He froze up.

“Sonia-san… Please don’t.”

Sonia frowned and let go.

“…Alright,” she said, giving a more patient smile. “I want you to join us, but… It is rude to pressure your friends, isn’t it?”

Friends…?

“Ah, no, don’t flatter me, ahaha…”

“At least allow me to join you so that you are not by your lonesome, Komaeda-san.”

“…you don’t have to for that, obviously, someone like me…”

“We are friends!” she exclaimed. “That is that!”

Komaeda blinked, and he could only nod, heart skipping a beat at the words.

She sounds ready to behead me for my insolence…!

“…That is that.”

[collegiate-trash]

Merman Hinata and Prince Komaeda makes much more sense since my darling Nagito is really fit for being a prince

He really does, doesn't he? Good thing I'm also a huge supporter of the sonmaeda cousins theory lol

Ever since that tragic incident where the sea claimed countless lives save for Nagito's, the prince finds himself going back to the beach every single day. He doesn't understand why he does it exactly, but a part of him insists that somewhere out there, beyond the vast expanse that tried so hard to kill him, is someone he needs to meet.

His memories of the tragedy are blurry at best, but there is one thing that remains with him for days after his rescue: a song. A melody so sweet and calming, laced with words he has never heard of before, sung by a mysterious singer he never met.

The prince tries his best to search for his rescuer but even his most trusted men, and even his beloved cousin, shook their heads at his inquiries. "There's no one there," they all say. "You were all alone on the beach when we found you."

No matter how much he argue on how ridiculous that claim is (I mean, come on people! Do you honestly believe that he just floated all the way to the beach from the shipwreck?), none of them budged.

"Give it up, Your Highness." Kuzuryuu, one of the local lords, snorts. "With that stupid luck of yours, it's highly likely that that is exactly how it happened."

With no one to share his thoughts with, Nagito spends most of his time out on the beach, waiting. For what, he doesn't know. But he is waiting. And waiting. And waiting.

"Come indoors, cousin," fair and lovely Sonia says one morning. "There is one I want you to meet. He is a guest from foreign land who met an unfortunate accident on the way here. If you'll accept it, I wish for you to assist him during his stay with us."

Heeding her words, Nagito follows Sonia inside, and gets hit with a great sense of familiarity when his eyes lands on their guest. Short, prickly brown hair and striking green eyes - he doesn't know where, but he knows he has seen it before. He greets him, sending a beaming smile as expected, and blinks back his fluster when the stranger sends one back. Ah, be still his beating heart. This is a guest and these feelings are unseemly for one of his station.

If you think this is the end, you are dead wrong. We haven't even seen Kamukura nor Junko yet-

[collegiate-trash]

What I said: I'll write fluffy Komaeda household shenanigans for my birthday

What I did:

[collegiate-trash]

You need to stop enabling me like this. If I don’t finish writing the part two for this au, you all can blame @daisylynx for distracting me from writing the komahina

< ! > See Fake Wedding AU for context

“So...” They were relaxing inside Nagito’s room, still tired from the wedding, when Sonia started inching close to her cousin. “About the wedding...”

“It’s a shame that it was a fake. And you were really looking forward to it too.” 

Sonia merely smiled at his answer. “Oh, that doesn’t bother me much! I’m sure there will be more weddings to attend in the future.” 

Figuring that she wouldn’t budge from the topic, Nagito decided to humor her. “Yeah. Like the bride and your’s.”

“More like your’s and the groom!” Sonia huffed and lowered her voice as she reenacts their earlier conversation. “Oh, Hinata-kun! Poor, poor Hinata-kun! If money is what you need, all you need is ask!”

Nagito nearly choked in his spit. “That’s not what I said...!” 

“That is what you said. I’m not deaf, cousin. I heard it loud and clear!”

“I offered him a well-paying job,” Nagito said, firmly. 

“While making googly-eyes at him,” Sonia replied, leveling his cold stare with her own. “I bet you’re actually happy the wedding was a fake. Then, you’ll have a chance with you Mr. Dreamboy.” 

He snorted at her accusation and retorted back, “As if you weren’t eyeing he poor bride up while checking those desserts together earlier.”

“You talked to him in private.” 

“You kept holding her hand!” 

“I was comforting her,” Sonia huffed. 

 Nagito rolled his eyes. “And I’m straight.” 

“Oh cousin,” Sonia tackled him for a hug to comfort him, “Soon a time will come when you’ll finally be free to leave your cabinet.”

“It’s closet...!” Nagito struggled to get out of her grip. “And I’m already been out for years!” 

“Not to the public though...” She trailed off as her cousin slacks against her. “It really makes me wish I can just whisk you back with me to Novoselic.” 

“You know I can’t.” 

“Of course...” 

The two enjoyed the silence until a thought appears in Sonia’s head. 

“He’ll start working next week right?” 

“Supposedly.” 

Sonia hummed. “Do you think it’ll turn into one of those office dramas? You know, the ones where the secretary falls for the boss? Oh! Oh! Do you think he’ll start placing love notes all over your office?” 

“Okay. That’s it. Get out of my room,” Nagito said as he pushed her away. 

“What? I think you look cute together! Admit it: you think he’s handsome!” 

Sonia kept on insisting for him to admit it but received none as she got pushed out the door. No matter. The blush on her dear cousin’s face was telling enough. 

“I better be the one to plan the wedding...!”

“Get married first!” was the answer she received from the other side of the door. Jokes on him though, Sonia was planning on it. Now...

Where did she put Chiaki’s phone number again?

[collegiate-trash]

Hajime: Thank god it's friday!

Natsumi: Oh? Excited to finally get out of school, are you?

Hajime, desperately not thinking about Komaeda wearing short shorts during PE: Y-yeah... weekends... yey...

[collegiate-trash]

Twins AU

You all can thank the anon who asked earlier lol but yeah, this is pretty much an “everything is the same except Nagito and Servant are twins” 

When Mama Ko underwent labor, she was not expecting to give birth to twins (”Does your family have a history with twins? No? Neither does mine! How did we get twins???”), but no one is actually complaining about it (”Very lucky for our family to be blessed with two bouncing baby boys!”)

And since they weren’t expecting it, they only prepared one name (”Obviously the older one will get the name! What is wrong with you?”)

Thus Nagito was named 

The younger one posed as a problem though since they were all drawing a blank (”I honestly don’t know what to call him. Look at him, so small and white like rice... Hey wait a minute---”) 

Thus Meshi finally got named (”Finally!”)

Everything was fine and domestic bliss was a thing, until their parents started noticing things around the boys. Left and right, bad luck seemed to follow them everywhere they go (”Don’t forget that they keep on bringing back money too, darling!”).

It wasn’t too bad, but sure enough, it was only a matter of time before things got out of hand. Meshi became more prone to accidents while Nagito’s friends kept on finding themselves in a series of horrible strokes of luck.  

“Pack up boys, we’re going on a trip!” Their father cheered with the boys as they left the room in haste. It was obvious that this place could no longer be a home to his sons. The superstitious elders and their gossiping neighbors were not helping the boys by continually calling them cursed. With that in mind, he talked to his wife and the both decided to leave it all behind. 

It was supposed to be a peaceful trip - their last one before moving to their mother’s homeland permanently in an attempt to escape every misfortune granted them. Never did it reach their minds that their fortune would strike them too. Now that they were in the middle of burning debris as far as the eye could see, the twins wondered if they were all right.
