    Summary

    The voices faded in and out, but Kokichi caught enough to draw a conclusion: a hospital. So, not dead. And no longer in the game. But he had been crushed. He remembered the hydraulic press coming down, the first moment of cold, unyielding pressure, and then nothing. But he was alive. In a hospital. Which could only mean…

    A laughter bubbled up through him. Even while struggling to breathe, he started cackling. So that was it, wasn’t it? The answer to all his questions. The thing he had missed. The thing that made everything he had done meaningless.

    “Oma? Can you hear us?” one of the doctors asked. Kokichi abruptly stopped laughing, and finally managed to take a deep breath. Game over. Press any key to continue.

    After the game, Kokichi and Kaito wake up in a world they have few to no memories of. They may not know themselves, but after what happened in the game, they know each other, and that's something to hold on to.

    Summary

    He had barely been allowed to see Ouma. The Team Danganronpa staff were dead set on the idea that he was a bad influence on Kaito’s fragile mental state. (How the hell was he supposed to take that? It was an insult.) 

    When that didn't work they began telling him that it was also for Ouma's sake as well. 

    His few conversations with Ouma had actually proved that concept. The guy pretty obviously didn't want to see him. Kaito's attempts to make contact had been entirely rejected.

    Kaito bit back a frustrated groan. If he was all there in his own head he knew he could get past that. Knew he could figure out the little bastard. But it felt like his brain was melting. And it had been that way since he woke up. It didn't matter though. He was being selfish now. The sleep deprivation carefully peeled away all of the parts of Kaito that were worried enough to not do this.

    He knocked on Ouma's door. And wasn't surprised when the boy answered. The prepared smile quickly fell when he saw who it was.

    “Kaito.” he said, voice intentionally flat. “What are you doing here?”

    Kaito's heart skipped a beat at his first name. He shook it off. “Can't sleep.”

    Summary

    The Trickster and the Prince. Justice and Joker. The story is set -
    has been told -
    will not change.

    Every piece is arranged -
    has an end point -
    contributes to the whole.

    Puppets on strings. Even the avatars themselves.

    But when you close your eyes, when you fall asleep, are you still the same person as you were before? When you consciousness blinks, do You continue?

    Akechi Goro knows what his goal is. He knows who he wants dead, knows how he's going to do it, knows that every stepping stone destroyed taking him there is worth the end result. Nothing can make him falter in his quest. Nothing has, and nothing ever will.

    And yet, rest is a necessity.

    The gray-eyed boy he sees behind his eyelids cannot take his hand -
    reach him across the rapids -
    pull him out of hell.

    The silver-eyed boy he sees across the counter cannot convince him -
    give him an exit -
    love him enough to change their fates.

    But seeing him matters. Regardless of their outcomes.

    Summary

    Ren is the first to clear his throat. “So… Bringing you along did help?”

    “Joker,” Morgana calls hysterically, “are you saying that out of all people, the Black Mask is your soulmate?!”

    Well. Ren is pretty sure it was the Black Mask who said the words, not him, but he still kind of ends up nodding, but also shrugging because what the fuck.

    Soulmarks are found on everyone’s left arm; the first words your soulmate will say to you.

    Usually, this would make meeting your soulmate a relatively easy task.

    Ren doesn’t have that kind of luck.

    Summary

    The strange man in the scarf that Goro is constantly bumping into is an enigma. He doesn't seem smart enough to be faking his identity, he looks too human to be a monster in disguise, and although Goro can sense a terrifying underlying power whenever the man is around, no one will take Goro's concerns seriously...all because Mochizuki is "nice".

    There's something off about Ryoji Mochizuki, and Goro Akechi is determined to figure out what, even at the cost of his sanity.
