𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐓𝐑𝐎𝐋𝐂𝐌𝐏𝐋𝐗. independent & selective roleplay blog for a Danganronpa original character, Ryusei Kobayashi, the Ultimate Debater; loved by Fable ( they / them ). verses available for Genshin Impact and Fire Emblem. minors and personals dni. guidelines & bio here!
“silence would have been kinder.” - leonnn
Well, Ryusei hates to point the finger, but if Leon wanted silence, perhaps consulting the debater was a poor decision. Just a thought.
"I don't say this to be unkind, Leon. I'm only being honest." Leon is in a difficult situation, and so difficult truths must be said. The chances of him or anyone seriously changing their Ultimate ( especially to one that already exists, but he supposes repeat Ultimates are inevitable ) once they're already here at the academy are low, but maybe not completely zero. It surely just requires effort that Ryusei can't personally say he's seen yet.
"Let me pose you a question." He leans forward over the table between them, propping his head up with one arm. "Do you absolutely need the title of Ultimate Musician? If you believe you have what it takes regardless, would it not be even more impressive to gain that fame without wasting your time here at the academy?"

[ CHIRON ] what does your muse do to cope ? are their coping mechanisms healthy, or do they lean into bad habits to get through tough times ?
astrological headcanon meme !
So, Ryusei is someone who kind of copes with issues before they ever actually happen by just going overboard with his preparation. He takes "prepare for the worst, hope for the best" to the extreme by considering how everything can go wrong and what he can do to both manage the possibility and maybe avoid the situation in its entirety.
Emotionally, this kind of puts him through the wringer the way it would for someone with anxiety, in that it causes him a bunch of stress over hypotheticals. However, when it comes to actually managing that stress, he defaults to one of his hobbies, like reading or cooking or playing some silly mobile game to chill out in a healthy manner. Then, if the worst does come to pass, he’s already mentally been through it and processed it, so he can approach the issue in a calm manner.
On the other hand, if something goes wrong that he somehow hasn’t planned for, everything kind of falls apart, and he doesn't cope. In his mind, if the issue hasn’t already mentally been solved, then it can’t be solved, and all he can do is avoid it entirely going forward, so he sort of shuts down about it and isolates until the worst of it rolls over. Then, he can get to work fixing the aftermath.
Case in point, this thing where there was a literal attempt on his life that he obviously didn't prepare for, and in panicking and shutting down about it afterwards ( plus, you know, the grief ), he focused so much on fixing what came after that, he never properly let the initial issue settle. So, he ends up with the belief that in order to manage future situations like it, he has to completely remove despair as an option, resulting in his tendency to default to euthanization for despair-minded folks since that’s how he had to handle his sister and it's the only way he can define and manage that particular issue. …There’s also a case to be made for the idea that if he lets himself think others affected by despair can be saved, then he killed his sister for no reason, but that’s a whole other topic for another day-
TL;DR, he just plans for and emotionally manages everything in advance, which is stressful and probably not a great thing, but at least he copes with what he plans for in a healthy way.
When the Tragedy first struck, Ryusei's family fell into despair pretty quickly, despite his best efforts. His little brothers turned on their parents and eventually themselves, and his sister came after him. She left him with no choice, and he had to kill her in order to keep himself alive. In order to do so, though, he had to stop thinking of her as a person first. Going forward, when dealing with those who have turned to despair, he makes himself dehumanize them in order to better manage the situation. To him, they're more akin to an animal that needs to be put down for their own sake, as a form of mercy. This doesn't make him needlessly cruel or anything, but he can occasionally say and do things that come off a little harsh.
In addition to the above, while he butts heads a little bit with Kyosuke, he does think he has the right idea when it comes to dealing with the Remnants. If people—not naming names—go out of their way to help them or others affected by despair, he fully believes it's a waste of time. He wouldn't exactly consider it treason, but it's definitely on the questionable side of things. He does come around later, eventually ( aka, when he doesn't have a choice but to accept that he was wrong when the Remnants show up to help them out ), but for most of the interactions based in the default FF verse, this is going to be his mindset.

" although this passageway has the word ' escape ' written on it , the truth is at the end of this hall , you'll meet your violent death . "
" you're so bad at following directions , it's incredible you weren't fired years ago . "
junko slides in. "so. i think bigfoot's real. i saw him."
"Really now? ...Have you seen him as close as you are to my face right now?" He leans away a tad, just to put a little distance between them. Bigfoot did not require her to be that close. "Because that would be impressive."
ryoka vc u look familiar,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, must be my imagination
He could say the same about this Ryoka character.... if that's even their real name.
Tozen is also a great debater if using fists instead of words counts
Long sigh. "No, Tozen. I'm afraid that doesn't count."
