[DANGANRONPA 2 CHAPTER 5 SPOILERS]

tasu suzuki walks to hotel mirai with his boyfriend and breaks down about recent events. comfort ensues.

(aka a rewrite of ch5 where nagito is unaware of kazuichi's plans and tasu is tricked into being the decoy to lead him to the hotel. the title isn't relevant for the most part, i just really like hozier lyrics.)

hi i just wanna talk abt the absolutely BANGER imagery i wrote in the beginning of my mastermind!tasu and nagito oneshot—

also please ignore any stupidness/inconsistencies i know nothing about computers and coding so i just kinda slapped an explanation for ai junko in there that i hope is at least a little believable —

the glow from the computer screen dimly illuminated the room, barely reaching to the back wall. two figures sat so close to each other in front of it that their shadows could almost be mistaken for a single person. they had holed up in the room to avoid future foundation, and had struck gold upon finding the computers running the simulation the rest of their classmates were in currently.

“wow, nagi, seems like your luck is pretty good today,” a voice chirped, followed by the clacking of a keyboard.

the other figure studied the screen for a moment before replying, “i guess so. but… neither of us have a talent for hacking or coding, how are we supposed to go through with this?”

there was a pause filled with the soft shuffling of cloth, and then the silhouette of one hand holding a usb was revealed in front of the screen.

“i got this from another remnant a while back. they made it to emulate junko in this program, among other things. since stuff’s so unpredictable now, they made it so that it’s easy to use for anyone regardless of skill level with coding and computers and whatever.”

“wow…” the second voice trailed off in awe. “how thoughtful of them. they sound very talented and kind — though surely not as much as you, tasu.”

“awh, you flatter me, nagito.” the first voice, tasu, purred. “i’m so glad i found you again. i don’t know what i’d do without you — well, i mean, i’d be like, really upset and probably grumpy, but you get the idea.”

nagito laughed softly, and leaned closer to tasu so their silhouettes were even more indistinguishable from one another. tasu pressed a quick kiss to the other’s cheek before leaning down to put the usb into the computer.

hi im here to talk about my dangan oc again yippee

my danganronpa muse is creeping back to me so here’s a list of fluffy headcanons about my oc, tasu, and nagito <3

despite tasu’s bold, borderline obnoxious disposition, he’s always calmer around nagito.

they are very snuggly!! tasu loves to cuddle and hug and lean on nagito and nagito loves the affection.

they spend a lot of time in the library together! they smuggle pillows and blankets from their cottages to make pillow forts to cuddle and read in <3

nagito runs cold, tasu runs warm. they share a weighted blanket, though sometimes nagito sleeps on top of tasu with his head on tasu’s chest.

nagito likes to sleep with his head on tasu’s chest because he likes to hear tasu’s heartbeat and know that the other is alive.

tasu’s parents like nagito a lot! he’s really nervous when he first meets them, but soma and matsuo welcome him in and take good care of him.

nagito texts in all lowercase and perfect punctuation, tasu uses a lot of acronyms and analog emoticons and barely ever punctuates

as always, feel free to ask anything (sfw) about them! <3

[flutteringfable]

this is their dynamic. if u even care.

[flutteringfable]

lets say. hypothetically. my danganronpa muse was back. and. for the sake of debate. lets say i was working on an older oc x canon wip. where theyre the masterminds together.

[flutteringfable]

happy birthday to the blorbo i havent drawn in ages <3 i dont have the energy to make a full piece for him but i still wanted to get this out there for him. love u nagito mwah mwah mwah

[flutteringfable]

kodaka really said "im gonna make the most gorgeous and mentally ill boy ever and then make all the characters hate him" and then everyone in the fandom fell in love with him anyway

[flutteringfable]

sillies and their boyfriends with Questionable Morals

[flutteringfable]

was so happy to draw my boy again <3333 my silly lil guyyyy

[flutteringfable]

guess who wormed his way back into my brain again

[flutteringfable]

HEY I JUST HAD A REALLY SAD THOUGHT.

okay so for context. my danganronpa oc tasu is friends with teruteru pretty much right off the bat. teru is the first one to hear about tasu being in love with nagito and he does his best to help tasu work through those feelings and get the courage to confess.

so imagine teruteru stumbling upon nagito hiding the knife. once he hears nagito's plan he's instantly worried not only for himself, but for tasu. so he decides to do something about it.

and then he kills byakuya instead.

the body is found and the investigation commences. when the class pieces together what happened in the trial, tasu looks at teruteru with the most distraught, betrayed look in his eyes. tasu himself is still trying to understand why nagito is acting the way he is, but knowing that his other friend almost killed him just to keep them all safe... it's a crude mix of feelings, none of which tasu can really pin down.

they don't have the time to talk about it before teruteru is executed.

[flutteringfable]

i think something possessed me uhh. short shorts bite marks servant and tasu be upon ye. i still hate drawing chains

[flutteringfable]

i think about this nagito line a lot and how tasu would react upon hearing it

conclusion: he considers it briefly bc nagito is very convincing but hajime stops him. nagito and tasu are both very embarrassed.

mini art dump of my danganronpa oc x canon art bc theyve been taking up all of my brain space lately

for anyone curious, my ocs name is tasu suzuki! he’s the ultimate paintball player and a sweet little goofball. he and nagito are my favorite oc x canon pairing to make stuff for; they’ve probably singlehandedly improved my writing, character creating, and art ability over the past like almost 4 years lmao

if anyone wants to see some little drabbles i’ve written abt these two lemme know, i’d love to share them ^^

[flutteringfable]

in which tasu nearly throws hands but decides his best friend is more important

oc x canon content jumpscare

takes place in chapter 2 of danganronpa 2, none of the deaths of that chapter are discussed but there’s still spoilers so just,,,,, proceed w caution if u still wanna read

words: somehow 2041. i haven’t written this much in god knows how long. i think nagito possessed me or something.

fluff, no romantic stuff as this takes place before they confess, anndddd i think that’s it. enjoy 👍

tasu yawned, stretching his arms as he walked to the hotel. the past few days had been… eventful, to put it lightly. he was more emotionally drained than he had ever been before, and it made him physically tired in turn. the only thing keeping him motivated was the thought of seeing his new friends every morning at breakfast (though even that wasn’t entirely guaranteed because of the killing game). still, he persisted, doing his best to remain positive in hopes of encouraging everyone else.

as he reached the top of the stairs and entered the hotel’s restaurant, he waved brightly to everyone present. he found himself scanning the room for akane, then nekomaru, and finally… huh. nagito was missing. tasu quickly dismissed any sudden negative ideas as to why that might be, and took a seat with akane.

“mornin’, suzuki!” she grinned, ruffling his hair. “didja sleep well?”

“mhm,” tasu replied, fixing his hair after playfully shoving her away. “and you?”

“like a rock!” akane chuckled, taking a large bite out of an apple she was holding.

nekomaru patted tasu firmly on the back, sitting on the other side of him.

“good morning!” nekomaru’s voice carried even as he spoke at a normal volume.

tasu felt immediately more at ease as he was surrounded by his favorite people. he cast one more look around, hoping to see nagito. unfortunately, the other was nowhere to be seen, and tasu sighed.

“hm? what’s up, suzuki?” akane asked through a mouthful of food.

tasu picked up a pear from the fruit bowl in the center of the table. “just waiting for komaeda. have you seen him this morning?”

akane shook her head, replying, “nuh-uh. why does it matter? it’s too early to deal with that creep.”

“don’t say that!” tasu huffed. “nidai, what about you?”

“UHHH…. nope! haven’t seen komaeda at all today!” nekomaru chuckled anxiously.

tasu’s heart dropped into his stomach at the obvious lie. maybe he was still paranoid from a few nights ago when byakuya had been killed, because nekomaru would never do something so violent, but he couldn’t help the sense of dread that kept an icy fist around his chest.

“NIDAI!” a sudden shrill voice rang out. “keep your mouth shut, stupid! you’re so bad at lyi— OH GOD.”

“souda, have you seen komaeda?” tasu asked, an unusual coldness in his tone.

kazuichi froze up, glancing around frantically.

“uh— well— what does it matter to you anyway, huh? you got some weird morals as well?!”

tasu narrowed his eyes, finishing his pear and standing up.

“you avoided the question. you know something. tell me.”

kazuichi met tasu’s gaze briefly before breaking and slumping over with defeat.

“alright, fine. when did you get so scary…? since you’re so obsessed with finding out where komaeda is, and nidai has already blown our cover… we tied him up in the old building,” kazuichi replied, shrinking under tasu’s stare.

even akane flinched as tasu yelped out, “you what?!”

nekomaru inched away from tasu as he continued. “why? you know what, actually, don’t answer that. i know why. and you just left him there? alone?”

“monomi is—“

tasu glared at kazuichi.

“so, let me get this straight. you tied up komaeda in the old building, the place where togami died, and just left him there to starve? if you two really think nagito is the monster here, reconsider.”

he pushed in his chair and considered the food spread out on the table before picking up a slice of toast and an orange. he wrapped them in a napkin and turned to leave.

“where’re you going?” akane asked.

tasu sighed, casting another pointed glance towards nekomaru and kazuichi.

“i’m going to take care of komaeda.”

he was met only with silence before he turned and stormed out, taking the stairs that led outside. his footsteps were heavier than usual as he made his way to the old building, almost stomping there.

tasu marched through the door, ignoring monomi’s panicked babbling from outside. as he opened the door to the dining hall, he huffed, finally seeing what kazuichi and nekomaru had done for himself.

“oh, suzuki,” nagito laughed, gazing up at him from the floor. “i wasn’t expecting to see you when i heard such angry-sounding footsteps. what has you so worked up?”

tasu softened, walking over to nagito and studying the chain wrapped around his arms. he set the food on a table before sitting next to him with his legs crossed.

“i can’t believe they did this to you…” he sighed. “poor thing.”

nagito stiffened as tasu pulled him upwards, helping him sit upright.

“suzuki…? what are you—?”

“i’m untying you,” tasu replied. “nidai and souda can suck it up if they get pressed about it, i don’t care.”

the large chain jangled as tasu worked it out of the messy, haphazard knot wrapped around nagito’s arms.

“such a cold remark from you, suzuki,” nagito laughed. “are you really so upset over someone like me being treated the way they deserve…?”

“you don’t deserve this, no one deserves this, — shoot.” tasu’s hand slipped as he pulled at a stubborn part of the knot. he tugged at the oddly wrapped link again, determined to break it either by unraveling the chain from nagito or breaking the chain itself.

nagito paused, looking back at tasu with wide eyes. “you really… want to help me?”

“of course i do,” tasu replied. “sure, what happened the other day was kind of scary and confusing, but definitely not worth tying you up and leaving you to starve.”

nagito turned away, chuckling sheepishly. “… i’m sorry about that, by the way. i don’t know what came over me when i said all that. i had no intent to worry anyone. it’s just… i think the stress of everything is getting to me and clouding my mind a little.”

tasu let out a small ‘yes!’ as he finally worked through the toughest part of the knot.

“that’s fair, i guess. it’s not exactly the most normal of reactions, but honestly it’s not the most wild thing i’ve seen so far,” he replied.

nagito chuckled. “forgive me for being so blunt, but you’re an odd one, suzuki. why is it that you are so endlessly kind to me, even after everyone else started hating me? i knew you were sweet, but to go so far as to take care of me, especially now…”

tasu listened quietly as he studied the chain, trying to decide where to try unraveling next.

“well, for one, you haven’t done anything to harm anyone out of malice. you did it for — how did you put it? — the sake of being a ‘stepping stone for hope’? i’m not sure i quite get it myself, but i don’t think you’re evil at all. you just sort of… have an odd way of approaching things. and like you said, you didn’t mean any of what you said the other night. it might be naive of me, but i trust you.”

nagito hummed, smiling softly. “that’s nice to know, i guess. leave it to someone as endlessly kind as you to be the only remaining person to care about me.”

he shifted a little, sighing.

“apologies for asking so suddenly, but my legs are starting to fall asleep like this…”

“i’m almost done, but if you want you can lean against me while i finish up.” tasu moved back to adjust his own sitting position.

nagito looked back again, an almost shocked look in his eyes. “ah— really? oh, suzuki, i could never— i wouldn’t want to stain such a brilliant ultimate like you with my filth…”

“komaeda, we’ve been over this,” tasu smiled exasperatedly. “you aren’t filthy, you aren’t trash, and you aren’t inferior. you can lean on me, i wouldn’t have offered if i didn’t want you to.”

he watched as nagito pondered for a moment before inching back and leaning gingerly against tasu, straightening his still-bound legs and stretching them out as much as he could.

“see? doesn’t that feel much better?” tasu smiled, reaching back down to untangle the rest of the chain.

after a moment, the rest of the chain finally clattered onto the floor, and nagito stretched his arms with a satisfied groan. he sat still for a moment, enjoying the softness of tasu’s shoulder as he — he was still leaning on tasu. nagito sat up, apologizing profusely.

“oh my goodness, suzuki, i’m so sorry, i didn’t mean—“

“hey, hey,” tasu interjected gently. “it’s okay. i told you i don’t mind.”

the look on nagito’s face was one that tasu could only describe as awe.

“suzuki, i’m truly far too lucky to be friends with someone as sweet as you… i should be careful these next few days. since i had the fortune of meeting you, that might mean something terrible is going to happen to me soon, ahaha!”

tasu scooted around to sit in front of nagito. he looked at the rope binding nagito’s legs and sighed. the same plentiful, hurried knots were tied in random places. tasu should really be thankful, he thought briefly, but just because nekomaru and kazuichi weren’t the ultimate knot-tyers didn’t mean his job was any easier.

“i would ask what they did to you before they brought you here, but maybe it’s best that i don’t. i won’t commit a murder or anything, but if they hurt you i’d have to beat them up for it.”

nagito snorted. “suzuki, my goodness. and i was just praising you for being so sweet…”

tasu glanced up at the other as he pulled apart the knots around nagito’s legs. “what? they need to know that someone will defend you if they try anything again.”

“you…” nagito blinked, stunned. “you would? really? i’ve… never had someone offer to do something like that before. thank you, suzuki.”

tasu beamed, turning back to the rope. “you’re welcome, komaeda.”

after a moment or two, the rope was almost completely untied. tasu sighed, happy to almost be done.

“oh! before i forget,” he rose up onto his knees to get the food down from the table. “here.”

nagito unwrapped the toast and orange, smiling softly.

“suzuki, you really didn’t have to…” he chuckled. “i could have gotten something from the restaurant once you got done untying me.”

“well, i figured i would bring some food for you since nidai and souda just decided to leave you here with nothing.” tasu’s tone was briefly cold again before he added, “i remembered you don’t like sweet things, so i just kind of guessed. hope what i got is okay with you.”

he looked up from the rope again to see nagito tearing up and shaking a little.

“oh, suzuki…” he mumbled, sniffling a little. “this is so embarrassing, please forgive me, but… you’ve brought me so much hope today, i don’t know how i could ever begin to repay you.”

tasu worked out the last knot and set the rope off to the side. he moved back again, sitting beside nagito.

“you don’t have to repay me, silly. i just want to keep you safe. it would totally suck if i just let someone mistreat my favorite person here.”

nagito gasped, looking over at tasu with wide eyes. “i’m… your favorite?! surely i misheard or misunderstood, or somethi—“

tasu pulled him into a gentle hug.

“you’re my favorite person, komaeda.”

he panicked slightly as nagito whimpered, wiping away his tears.

“oh— i— i didn’t mean to make you upset— i didn’t know—“

“suzuki, i can’t believe i’m your favorite. i’ve never been anyone’s favorite. i… i don’t know what to say… um— thank you. i guess.”

tasu softened, patting nagito’s shoulder.

“you’re welcome.”
