#verse; the deadliest place on earth

[apexulansis]

did Kariians ever farm or?

Sort of. Certainly never in the same degree as an Earthling, given Kariio was always an aggressively cold place and just could not cultivate the same sort of life as a place like Earth. And even before the cataclysmic event that threw Kariio into its still ongoing nuclear ice-age, all its life had to be fairly ruthless to survive.

If you had to pick between an Earth-cow and a Kariian-cow or an Earth-flower and a Kariian-flower, the answer is pretty obvious. 'Farming' on Kariio in of itself would be like trying to herd lions. So yeah obviously the Zehen-Khasiik still do it but it's certainly not a docile or simple lifestyle for them. To be a farmer on Kariio 15-R is absolutely not an easy task because everything wants to kill you; it is not a lifestyle for those who are not clever and adaptive. Farmers on Kariio 15-R will frequently have educations either in beast-training and/or botany (education is freely shared between them; probably the most streamlined thing about their society tbh) should they wish to either A) not die or B) excel in their craft.

Fauna-based farms on Kariio are on the above-world. They are plentiful in the vast mountain cordillera of Zourne and Zozava'Zahhania, as many of the smaller peaks are shallow enough to traverse between on foot or vehicle but are steep enough to block out the fiercest of the perpetual storm's violent winds. Fauna-farmers on Kariio are at the highest risk of being killed or maimed. Most Kariians are predators, and even the most docile of its wildlife will attack you if it perceives you as a threat. And Zehen-Khasiik are incredibly threatening.

Flora-based farms are primarily underground, cultivating the mosses and lichen in the tunnels below the mountains. They live in almost complete darkness save for the natural bioluminescence of the Kariian life around them. One of the main forms of income for them are extracting the deadliest of the fungi here and selling them to the Dominion, as they contain elements frequently used in bio-engineering and bio-weaponry.

As for the above-ground flora-based farms... The cold is simply too extreme in this era for flora to persist above exposed to the raw elements, but some Kariians have created what are essentially 'greenhouses' made of ice in places where the suns are the brightest. In these sparse places are where they've brought back previously extinct (on the homeworld that is) species of flowers that existed in the pre-nuclear era. These places would likely be the least dangerous of the 'farmer' jobs, but one has to be well versed in the plantlife to cultivate it properly there, and it's more fitting to just outright call them botanists.

[ fidget ] for your muse to comfort mine during a bad dream.

soft edition

         Ideally, he wouldn’t have to sleep at all. If they could just let him leave that would be perfect. Of course, Monokuma doesn’t work on ideals, and they all have to wait in the park while awaiting news of their fate. He isn’t with Nanako of course, not after revealing who he is and what he’s done. Yu had found somewhere he could sleep in peace, but of course there’s no easy rest after what he’s done.

      ‘You can guide them to safety,’ Yu had been told, and he’d lapped it up like water trickling down cave walls. ‘If you reason with them, you can keep them all alive.’ He’d believed it. He’d worked for it. But he’d failed. And now they were all ...

     ......

            The touch to his shoulder shreds his fitful sleep, and Yu sits up faster that he ever moves in consciousness, tearing himself away from the touch as if it burned. The hair at the back of his neck is damp, and the skin beneath the Mickey-Mouse-brand T-shirt he’d taken from the park is hot and sweaty. For just a moment, the grey eyes that turn to Alex are bright and fearful, but it falls away as quickly as his memories return.

      He doesn’t really want to look at the face of another person he’d failed to save. Instead, Yu cages his fingers around his face and drops his eyes to the webs between his fingers. She might have woken him from a nightmare, but somehow he feels like thanking her is an inappropriate response right now. 

       “Alex-san,” he says instead in a whisper. “... You should be sleeping by now.”

i’ve been inactive for months wtf happened in dpoe

[pxgtails]

idle thought of the morning: can you imagine how hecking surreal it must’ve been for ikki when he was in the park, being surrounded by the members of concordia who had their memories taken away from them

he knew from the start that he’d have to act like he didn’t know any of them and that he was meeting them for the first time

but did he account for the fact that if you take away their memories, these people change — because the apocalypse and the war they fought changed them

over the course of the ten months that kris spent involve with concordia, she grew up really, really fast; she became capable of keeping a rather level head and thinking clearly in the throes of battle, she learned how to think for a team and not just for herself, she lost a lot of her joie de vivre, she started saying ‘maybe yuri’s still alive’ because at some point she realized that she had to save her optimism for more fundamental things  ( ‘i hope we survive this raid — i hope we’ll survive the night )

and then, suddenly, when they wake up in the park, she’s back to how she was ten months earlier — expending so much energy on hope and rage, refusing to believe there’s anything wrong with their situation, acting impulsively and taking everything personally, acting like some kid, and not the trusted captain of concordia’s special operations squad

grinning, laughing, because she doesn’t know what’s going on out there

none of them do

ikki’s surrounded by people that he’s come to know — he’s come to know them by having to pry them away from the corpses of their family members, having to explain to them that nothing remains of the town they grew up in, by fighting alongside them with the mutual understanding that they’re likely to die, and they’ve accepted that

but now — even though the names and the faces are the same, they’re acting like people he’s never met; they’re optimistic about getting out of this park  ( they don’t know that there’s nothing to go back to anymore )  and they’re showing off personality traits that the apocalypse stole away from them

they’re naive and they’re happy and they’re hopeful

was he prepared for that

MZD’s fate (Canon end for DPOE [kinda alt but eh.])

Warning: this is the canon end (bad end) to what happened to MZD in DPOE and how it feels :’3c

Trigger warning: burning, flesh melting, blood, gore

MZD knew his end would come but he is so persistent that he chuckles. Of course this is wrong but what else could he even do about it? Just embrace it despite the last of his existence in a few spare minutes. The despair disease he had caught is rapidly progressing at a higher stake due to it being left untreated, now becoming a physical health problem.

His legs weak to bolster much longer, he boasts out a sinister laugh. The deed is done for most but with those last spare minutes he thought of his last wish being put into place: burn. MZD had it with this game of murder, no matter how hard he tried to keep himself alive but in the end, he has failed tremendously. Without any afterthought left, the DJ clutches his chest with what strength he could.

“Please! BURN ME! I rather die out in ashes than to have been quickly killed. I would entertain you fucks for playing me the whole time in my last minutes!” MZD bellows out, weakly chuckles as he limps down to the floor, laying on his left side, unable to navigate much longer. So beautiful, this torture.

Obviously he never knew they would. Drenched in gasoline, leaving a trail far from him. There wasn’t retaliation left from MZD knowing how it would be his last time. When the fire is lit blazing down the trail, it speeds through with no breaks. Once it reaches MZD, the tip of his shoes feel like a blistering mess of heat and then swallows the him fully into flames.

“AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!” MZD hoarsely screams, squirming frantically as possible yet he said to himself he wouldn’t back out yet pain is dear. The hair from his scalp begins to dissipate into smoke, eyes bleeding in and out, and body hardening while bones get frail. The tips of his semi-meaty fingertips show miniature bones. MZD’s clothes already burning from the fire aside him--then on him--then, in him. Blood gushes out from his abdomen and the flesh from it opens up. He is already dead.

Soon, after several minutes as roughly it being 55 minutes--almost an hour, MZD is right. Almost nothing except for the burn marks left behind as well as his blood. His sunglasses, well his frames were gone, broke, bent and burned into distortion but nothing more. Maybe this is how he should live out morally. He lived out technically.

random word blargh abt a few muses related to dpoe like ikki’s thoughts & feelings on some of them, mostly story stuff i’ll have to blargh abt specific members of concordia like kris & adrien & etc soon kejrgn

Getting the obvious out of the way, seeing as this is an extension of I.kki in Joker World, his heart is and always was K.ent’s, regardless of how their interactions would’ve happened in this verse pre-DPOE. He was in love with him, for better or worse, and would have knowingly made the decision to leave him behind in order to save everyone when he made the choice to infiltrate D.isney World. As per the set canon in this verse, he had no romantic attachments or attractions that formed with anyone in the park seeing as, whether K.ent was aware of it or not, the person he loved was someone who ended up far beyond his reach. He would’ve made a plea to Kuma to prioritize finding Ken and ensuring his safety above all others since he didn’t get a chance to say goodbye. I.kki was an extremely selfless person -- except for when it came to K.ent. Everyone had one person that meant more to them than even Concordia’s cause itself. Even its leader was not exempt from this truth.

Kuma would have had connections to I.kki even before the Calamity started, as well. Similar to thei despair verse, the two of them wouldn’t met through the flower shop, although seeing as in this verse’s context, the Kuma in question is from non despair verse, nothing undesirable came from their interactions. Even though the two of them weren’t exceptionally close, he was friendly enough with him to entrust the entirety of Concordia’s survival with him after he left to go on his suicide mission. He thinks he’s both strong and capable, albeit not exactly leader material -- something both of them agree on. Kuma knows the ropes, how to run Concordia, and how to locate the remaining settlements M.onokuma isn’t aware of. Basically, I.kki made him a living failsafe. When he left, Kuma temporarily took over until Neo Concordia passes the torch to Kris. While never overly attached to him, I.kki trusted him.

He has an opinion on Kyu which is about what you’d expect. He despises her. I.kki thinks her rude, inconsiderate, cruel, and out of her mind. Although the war is primarily spent dealing with M.onokuma himself, prior to things turning strictly towards violence, I.kki went head-to-head with Kyu quite often in debates during the formation of the Alliance. When they were unable to reach common ground, he’s the one who broke away and refused to form any kind of peace between Memento Vivere and Concordia, seeing as Concordia refused to join the Alliance. Kyu and I.kki both have very deep personal vendettas against one-another. They never once interacted in the park (me being the mun of both aside JKHBERG) because they both knew that the other was lying and “playing a part” to fit in and neither wanted to draw attention to themselves. Kyu was the one who helped M.onokuma plan out a dramatic motive that would force I.kki to murder someone and considering the flair behind the whole thing, he suspected as much. He hated her from the start and he died hating her in the end. Keeping the surviving settlements within Concordia so hidden that even she believed the group was completely wiped out was his final middle finger to her.

The Jury is on the same boat as Kyu. Although the original Jury was smaller prior to his trial / when they started recruiting people later in the game, he was still aware that they were there and what was going on seeing as he retained his memories and knew the inner workings of the game. He was able to easily identify members of the Jury because they WEREN’T members of Concordia.

M.onokuma is a mixed bag in that I.kki is both desensitized to him and terrified of what he can accomplish. I.kki was never afraid of dying nor was he afraid of M.onokuma any longer: but he WAS afraid of M.onokuma’s influence. Bravery does not equate to stupidity -- I.kki knew from the beginning after he’d set the path in the first trial that people WOULD continue to kill in the game even after he sacrificed himself. He knew more than anyone what the Warden was capable of and because of that, he was scared for everyone who would be left in the park on their own. That being said, on a broader level outside of the game, I.kki obviously harbors a poor opinion of the bear in general considering he leads the group that broke away from his rule to fight against him. He sees M.onokuma as nothing more than a hypocritical tyrant. He preaches purity whilst piling bodies on the streets. I.kki aptly commented at one point in one of my DPOE related posts somewhere that “this isn’t right, it isn’t ‘purification’: it’s slaughter.” Whereas some members of Memento Vivere either worship M.onokuma or believe standing with him is the only way to survive, I.kki maintained that the quickest way to ensure humanity destroyed itself was to follow an emotionless warmonger.

[spottedcharms]

Pre-warning: This will contain several triggers including: SERIOUS Gore, Body Horror, Blood, Cannibalism, DPOE and Adrien having a REALLY shitty time. A page break will signal where the serious gore will start and end. 

UPDATE: More descriptive gore and more Adrien suffering.

Nicolette stood next to her sister as she violently tried to deny the evidence stacking up against him. He was a hero, he was her role model, there was no way he could have done something so horrendous. Especially not after what happened to Ikki, he knew better. She bit her lip in anticipation, denying any possible chance that he was the killer. She knew him better, there was no way that he did it. They had to be wrong, they just had to be... 

The results came in....

          AND THEY WERE RIGHT.

                ADRIEN AGRESTE WAS A KILLER.

Nicolette’s blood ran cold as she gripped her Miraculous, trying to calm herself down. She was internally panicking at the realization and she didn’t dare look at how Marinette was handling the information. Her eyes darted around the courtroom as she knew what was coming next. She wanted to scream out that Monokuma got it wrong, Adrien would never kill anyone! We was too good of a person to do anything that horrific. She knew that she had to do something, anything to help him! She didn’t glance back to her sister, knowing that if she saw Marinette’s face that she might accidently drag her sister into this foolish plan. Instead of even consulting with her sister, all she did was bolt from her spot and ran towards Adrien and Monokuma. 

She didn’t get very far before she felt something cold and hard grab her neck and slam her down into the ground. The wind got knocked out of her lungs as she shut her eyes, trying to gather her bearings again. When she opened her eyes again, she saw Monokuma standing over her, with Adrien on his stomach looking at her in horror. No words needed to be exchanged as it was clear what he was wondering. Why.

“Upppupp, looks like someone wants in on the fun.”

With that Monokuma pulled out a new collar and slapped it around Nicolette’s neck. The minute the lock was clasped, the Monokumbot let go of her neck and a searing pain shot through her. A cry of pure agony ripped through her throat as she felt her body shifting, changing. To her, this change felt like hours of pure agony when it really was only a minute. Where a fourteen-year-old girl once laid was now a pitch black cat with blue eyes. She was disoriented and confused as to what happened, but she was sure of one thing. She was hungry. 

Pushing herself to her feet she saw her master walking away with her dinner, she just silently followed him. She made eye contact with her dinner and felt nothing, well that was a lie. She felt something, an ever growing hunger. When they reached the execution area, she waited patiently for her master to finish playing with her dinner, meowing in excitement and anticipation. Soon several other cats entered the area and her master gave the signal to enjoy. 

A surge of excitement went through her as she went straight for his calves. It was the easiest part to get to and she sunk her teeth into the exposed flesh. A cry came from her dinner and she paid not attention to it as she pulled back with a tug. The flesh didn’t come easily off the bone, much to her annoyance. She let the relatively large section go, and went back again. Only this time she took a much smaller bite and was able to successfully get the muscle and skin to come off. She was ignoring all the sounds her dinner was making. now as it was starting to annoy her. She slowly chewed her dinner and savored every second of it. 

     It’s tough and chewy.

Yet she realized something, while this WAS still meat... it wasn’t as tender as she was hoping it to be. She paused sitting on her hind legs licking off some of the blood on her fur. She looked at the bottom half that she claimed for herself and thought about her problem.

     Maybe If it was smaller.

Pushing herself back onto her paws she dug her claws back into the muscle tissue once again. Instead of pulling out a chunk with her teeth she tore at the exposed flesh, to get it into significantly smaller pieces. When she was done the calf she was working on looked like ribbons. The shredded tissue looked almost like raw pulled pork instead of human parts. She gathered some of the meat and ripped it off the bone and swallowed it hole. 

      Better!  But more, I want more!

She cared not at the mess she was making, all she cared about was satisfying this endless hunger she was feeling. It did not take her long to shread the rest of the muscle and even less to finish eating it. She didn’t bother chewing the torn up meat, opting to swallow it hole. She thought about trying to break open the calf bone to get to the tempting marrow hidden inside. She also realized that would be more trouble than it was worth. Seeing the feet... now that was something different, much easier. Yet still holding the treasure she desired inside. 

She was about to attempt to get the strange object covering her prize off. Then she heard her master stand up and walk towards them. She carefully moved away from the body leaving bright red paw prints in her wake. 

“Having fun Adrien? Get ready for round two!”

With that being said, she watched as her mastered grabbed her dinner by his spinal cord and flipped him onto his back allowing fresh access to the rest of the meat. Before leaving, she watched as he stepped on each arm and leg. Each break caused her dinner to weep in sheer agony. The weeping she found musical in comparison to the annoying screaming. Before Monokuma left the area, he took off both of Adrien’s shoes and ring before skipping off.

“Uppupp, play nice everyone!”

She saw one of the cats go towards his face and she hissed at the cat. Muscle fibers were still caught between her teeth, not that she cared, as she bared her fangs at the offending cat.

     That is MINE.

“Nikki... I... I’m so sorry....”

[Rip Adrien’s Feet here]

[Rip Adrien’s right hand here]

She watched in bored amusement as the rest of the cats finish the meal. She felt her master bend down and took off her collar. Her form started to shift again, unlike the first time id didn’t hurt. She was back to her normal form and she felt full. It took a moment for her to process what she just did and her eyes went wide with horror as she stared at what little remained of Adrien and she didn’t know if she wanted to pass out or throw up right now.

Nicolette bolted upright, as she felt sick to her stomach. She coughed a few times and blood came from her mouth. Her breathing was rapid and she touched the corner of her mouth and glanced at her hand. She was praying that it wasn’t covered in what she thought it was. Her luck did not hold as she saw her hand was almost completely covered in a dark crimson layer. Horror took her over as she threw the rest of her covers off to see her body was in the exact same state. Her legs were less covered than her feet but that didn’t change the simple fact of what she did. 

She just sat on the floor of Felix’s room as she brought her knees to her chest and started to sob to herself. She completely forgot that her fiance might still be in the room as she sat there, her body caked in blood.

A cliff note version of Reimu’s “canon” DPOE timeline. I’ll expand on things, write drabbles, move things around, ect. eventually, but with all the info out here we go kids, the:                     “How the Hell Did Reimu End Up In This Mess In the First Place ???” 

Post. 

 -- Gensokyo is a land of Fantasy. A “Paradise for Both Humans and Youkai", a realm which does not really exist, at least not in a logical way humans can truly comprehend. It is not unlike Wonderland, a separate realm connected to this world ( the Outside World, the real world, the world of humans, OUR world ) and can only be entered by very specific means. -- Reimu Hakurei is the Shrine Maiden of this land, and she will do anything to protect it. For it is her job to maintain its delicate balance. The Outside World and their going ons is NOT her problem, she is GENSOKYO'S shrine maiden first and foremost. -- But still, Gensokyo is reliant on the continued existence of the world outside it's Illusionary Boundary; Fantasy can't exist without Reality; if the world outside where to be destroyed, Gensokyo would fall with it. -- Yukari Yakumo ( @deadlyfantasia ) is a powerful Youkai Sage which watches over Gensokyo and protects its boundaries. She is too a frequent traveler of the Outside World, and keeps her eye on the events which take place there. She found out rather quickly about the chaos of the human’s world ending, a apocalypse started by a certain strange bear @desbearer​ ( # thanks based monokuma ) and as soon as the youkai figured out this wasn't simply a normal human war ( she had seen plenty of those before after all ) as soon as she realized the Outside World was at the threat of being completely destroyed: she took action. For she would NOT let Gensokyo fall because the humans outside of it decided to all up and die. -- So, she came up with a plan. A mission for Gensokyo's shrine maiden, the one person Yukari KNEW she could count on in a situation like this: Go outside of Gensokyo, fight with the humans who live there, HELP THEM, help the Outside World STABILIZE, help humanity not get WIPED OUT. If she could do that, Gensokyo would be SAVED. In the meantime, Yukari would stay within Gensokyo and help defend / protect it ( strengthen the boundaries, work her powerful magic to try to keep Gensokyo as functional as possible while the whole endeavor sorted itself out ) Confident the Red-White would surely be of help to the humans dealing with the chaos outside. -- Reimu joins up with Concordia ( both out of Yukari's insistence and her own morals ) and helps them fight back, helps them in anyway she can. Despite herself, she makes friends. ( Adrien @mcncheri and Kirigiri @kyoukokiwigiri in particular ) and despite herself she grows to care for them. ( "Maybe once this is over I can show them Gensokyo... I just need to help them, save their home just like how I'm working to save my own” ) -- She eventually gets a tattoo of the cause, ( on her mid back, between her shoulder blades ) and soon enough Reimu becomes as wholeheartedly invested in Concordia's success as she is in her personal mission to help secure Gensokyo’s safety. -- Cue Monokuma fucking everything up and throwing them into Murder Disney -- Cue 6 chapters worth of bs she had to go through -- And once she's out, she finds out that the Outside World ( for better or for worse ) is stable enough that Gensokyo is no longer in any danger of ceasing to exist. She can go home, she can put all this behind her ( she can try to ignore the voice in the back of her head telling her she is just running away. What would her friends think if she just ran back home and left their world in ruins ruled by a tyrant and a deranged self proclaimed queen ? ) -- But... her job isn't to PROTECT the Outside World is it ? She is GENOKSYO’S shrine maiden, everything she has done and will continue to do is for the sake of her HOME, for the place she misses with all her heart. For Reimu Hakurei above all other things has and will always be, The Shrine Maiden of Paradise.

[reaperdachi]

Information about Adachi Pre-DPOE as well as an AU route. I mean everyone’s gonna need an alive AU since ya’ll got the bad end but you know what I mean. 

PRE-DPOE

Adachi was originally serving his sentence like the good little shitlord he is. Then the apocalypse goes and ruins everyone’s day. Being in a cell, he was unaware at first of what happened until Monokuma/Memento Viere arrived at his cell. 

He was then tossed into a mutual killing game (I’m going to assume that not much of his memories were wiped because he was already unaware of the apocalypse.) which was eventually interrupted by members of Concordia. Adachi and the remaining survivors are taken in. 

Adachi eventually learns about what happened to the world, and agrees to help out Concordia and their goals. He gets a tattoo on his chest, where his heart is located. 

While he doesn’t make any close friends, he doesn’t exactly make any enemies either. Magatsu-Izanagi turned out to be a valuable asset when rescuing other hostages from the mutual killing games.  By helping them out, he was following the rules of the world, right? 

All good things come to an end though. What appeared to be a hostage situation turned out to be a trap set by Kyu. Adachi barely managed to make it out of there alive, and was cornered by her and forced to participate in DPOE. This memory would be remembered later, but he would assume that she was saving him instead of being the one that he was running from. 

DESPAIR 

After Dojima’s execution, Adachi is taken to a hospital to treat his injuries. During this time Kyu convinces him to join Memento Vievere by manipulating him, saying he could save Nanako (@gooselullaby) by doing this. 

The poor man believes this. He does his part to spark a revolution in order to bring hope to the other members. 

During the Despair Disease, the masochism he showed wasn’t exactly faked... wow I can’t believe he’s got the hots for Monokuma

In order to help with Windy’s murder, Monokuma cuts off his legs (not that they were any use anyways) and gives him SUGOI ROBOT LEGS YEAH. 

CANON ENDING: JUROR 

Adachi, along with the others decide that the remaining prisoners haven’t successfully gone through rehabilitation. If Unicorn allows it, he’d mercy kill Nanako before Monokuma gets his paws on her. 

Of course, this now means that his last hope is gone. With nothing left for him, he’s fully committed to Memento Vievere’s goal. 

Magatsu-Izanagi’s powers of Calamity are good for taking down anyone who gets in his way. 

He’s given up on his promise to follow the rules of the world. Despite that, he still seems to consider Yu (@narxkami) a friend. Regardless of how twisted he is now, they still have a bond. 

AU ENDING: WANDERER

An alternative ending where the good ending is achieved and everyone gets out of the game alive. Adachi considers his options and decides to leave Memento Vievere, realizing that he’d never be able to protect Nanako by doing what Monokuma says. 

Eventually, he comes to realize that the Neo-Concordia that Kris (@pxgtails) created would probably never accept him. Not that he can exactly blame her considering what they went through. 

As a result, Adachi decides to become an unaffiliated wanderer. He travels around the post-apocalyptic world, giving support to those who choose neither Vievere or Neo-Concordia. 

He’s scratched away his sun tattoo and painted his legs a different colour to show that he no longer affiliates with either side. Sure, it’s left an ugly scar on his chest, but it gets the memo across. 

[lamentis]

"yer allowed ta be sad a lot. it don’t make ya less of a human bein'."

lovely suggestions.

               “  …  ” Although he considers a rebuttal … Why bother? He’s not made for these conversations, never has been. There’s nothing left in him that will allow a show of emotions – he can’t remember the last time he felt something other than panic or dread, or at least the last time he recognized anything else. Authority doesn’t come with a rulebook or a map to guide the person unlucky enough to fall in its position. The walls he builds around his emotions, the way he cuts himself off from anything but logic and the occasional bout of sympathy when it comes to rescuing others … those are the only feelings he harbors anymore. Death, fear, worry, he can’t cling to those. And sadness is… Some part of him wants to scoff, wants to say that right about now, he wishes he were anything but human, that if forgoing despair helped him move one step closer to being completely apathetic, he’d conform to it in a heartbeat. He doesn’t because he knows it’s not true, no matter how much this world hurts him, but he wants to.

          “Are you talking to yourself or me?” In the end, he settles for something almost humorous. It’s an empty response, one given because he doesn’t know what to say otherwise. He’s aware hat if he tried to put those thoughts into words, they’d come out lies. He’s more fragile than he lets on. He always has been. He knows that. But that’s the thing about being skilled with words: he could preach anything and make other people believe it. Hope, feigned happiness, whatever it may be – he can fool anyone, even himself. He keeps his mouth shut, keeps those emotions unspoken because he doesn’t want to hurt himself. Some things never change – in some ways, even he will always be selfish.

     “Let’s just get back to work. I get restless when I stand around too long. If I recall, you aren’t exactly one for heart-to-heart talks anyways… I’m fine, Kris. Just... keep moving forward, right? ‘Towards the sun.’ There’s a light at the end of this tunnel. Somewhere. We can be sad when we’re free.”

      Before she knows it, the guilt of having so openly despised the Despair Court during her time diseased has lifted exponentially. In a similar vein, slapping and cursing out Adachi has become a thousand times more satisfying in hindsight.

      How many regrets are there right now? None. Zero. Have fun counting them all, for there is nothing.

[A few little tidbits about the Not!Dead DPOE AU:

- Chapter 3 happens as usual, the single difference being that someone comes across her and Raimundo mid-scuffle and raises the alarm, pulling them apart before any severe damage can be done. Mitsuru escapes with a broken wrist, an (understandable) aversion to her attacker and those close to him, and the stark knowledge that, had someone not intervened, she would have been the third victim of the third motive. She has little choice but to push everything aside, however, seeing as they still have two murders to solve.

- It’s not until after the trial that she really has time to acknowledge what happened to her - but after a sleepless night or two and the release of all the pent-up distress regarding the situation, she forges on. She’s a little bit more quiet and self-absorbed for a few days, but the most noticeable result of her ordeal is a clear bias toward suspicion of those she’s unfamiliar with for the remainder of her time in the park. The last stranger to approach her did so with murder on the brain, after all - who is to say that the thought won’t occur again? This impacts all of her future contributions to trials, as well as her relationships with most others outside of that time.

- She doesn’t experience despair disease in Chapter 4, though watching it run rampant among those close to her is an experience.

- Hamuko’s framing really doesn’t sit well with her at all. Hamu is one of the only people in the park that she continued to trust wholeheartedly (or indeed at all) after Ch.3′s assault - and though she strongly protests her friend’s innocence, seeing the evidence pile up and the room slowly turn on her definitely messes with her a little. What if Hamu really had killed someone? This trial marks the only time she outright refuses to vote, but for a few moments there are definitely some seeds of doubt there. It’s bizarrely relieving when it’s revealed that the Jurors are responsible (though that means Narukami was involved, and that’s just a whole ‘nother can of worms right there).

- Mitsuru was aligned with Concordia pre-Disney (this applies to canon, as well as the AU). Her sun tattoo was/is located on the back of her left hip.]

"Well I must say, I'm pretty disappointed by your death, but there were good times, while we had them." She said to the corpse which was entering rigor mortis and then added, "But don't you worry your pretty dying locks. I'm going to give you a funeral, worthy of a king."

“Hehehe… I’m pretty sure everyone else followed suit. I was going to die anyways due to them having such low-minds. Everyone even Hamuko went down from what I saw… In the end. I quite knew there was something about Kyu…” His ghost talks. Now he finally feels free. Oh, if only he was a king. A hunger artist would pull off a better act.

“I had to die early to prevent shame on my name. It was a long ride but betrayal was the end of it. Don’t worry. The group Memento Vivere will soon and chaotically crumble one by one. Karma has her wits and gets anyone and everyone she may encounter. It matters not the power but the stronghold bond of morals. Let’s see how they will live out the next generation.”

DPOE Info Dump on MZD

“I think there was a reason why but I can’t think of anything right now.”

Pre-DPOE consists of him be a foreigner or a VIP DJ from Japan to a trip in the United States and ironically one of his live shows were in Las Vegas, well, a few boggling rumors of Memento Vivere taking over that place got to him and he never expected it. Even his music studio company were warning him about the Despair but he never listened.

He never had any close contact with anyone up until he met one of the members of MV.

He was a prisoner because he was willing to give up everything and start out new, similarly to their motive by joining the murder game (but really his music studio company fuk’d him over).

Chapter 1 was obviously ironic, because he was starving as hell until that last bit which is why he ate so much in chapter 2 and onwards.

Chapter 2 he would have cared less about the weather since he knows how to indicate storm patterns naturally without his powers. Real forest boy

Chapter 3 didn’t faze MZD much and he was hungry (also hey Takaya).

Chapter 4 got MZD to a nice degree with the Despair Disease. He was insane even douchey at that. Also rich on Monocoins.

He has been cured but half of it still remains.

Chapter 5 got him shook. Although played it cool.

Chapter 6....He still lives because he thought it was worth it.

Post-DPOE: His whereabouts is unknown but he is willing to check in with Memento Vivere with what happened with all of his memories. Besides, now that his world is no more, there’s nowhere to go but here. MV is the only group he stands for.

He has a sun tattoo on his right hip.

It is ambiguous whether or not he still has that despair disease because of his par-partial healthy body and mind.

Total Injuries:

Gash on right knee participating the 5th execution trial (falling from false floor).

Left shoulder blade with piece of skin quite torn.
