[OOC:

Hello everyone! I'm the mod, Kiji, and this is a roleplay/ask blog for Korekiyo Shinguji! Before we start...

!DISCLAIMER!

Do not send any (very gory) hate to 'sister'! I've seen a lot of people have violent fantasies and it's honestly concerning. Both Korekiyo and Miyadera are not good people and bad for eachother in this 'AU'.

Normal hate is allowed, just please don't describe anything gory, thank you!

Thorough list of rules can be found here, please read them.

- About the mod/owner of the blog !

You can call me Kiji or just admin/mod!

Any pronouns, mainly he/him.

My intro is also on the @kijimha blog.

My knowledge on Danganronpa may be a little rusty; feel free to correct any mistakes I make!

Danganronpa covers some pretty dark topics, and in Korekiyo's case, mentions incest. Please be wary when scrolling through the blog.

Other RP/Ask blogs can be found in my intros! (@casinoownersigma/@kijimha)

[korkshinguji]

Hello there Korekiyo! I was reading a bit about how different cultures throughout history used music for rituals and storytelling, and it instantly made me think of you! As the Ultimate Anthropologist, you must know so many incredible stories about that. I’d love to hear about the kind of traditional music you've encountered on your travels! Maybe I could even try adapting a folklore melody onto the piano for you sometime!

"Interestingly enough, I was just reading up on Shamanic music. It's ritualistic music used in religious and spiritual ceremonies associated with the practice of shamanism. It mostly emphasizes voice and rhythm.

In shamanism, the shaman has a more active musical role than the medium in spirit possession. The shaman actively enters the spirit world, negotiates with their helper spirit and then with other spirits as necessary, and moves between different territories of the spirit world. Possession music is typically longer in duration, mesmeric, loud, and intense.

The music itself is played not by the medium, but by one or more musicians. Fascinating, is it not?"

[kkkaedeakamatsu]

"Fascinating is an understatement! Thank you so much for the insight, Kiyo!

A musical style where the rhythm and voice have to be powerful enough to guide someone through different territories of the spirit world...? I can't even imagine how much raw energy that takes! When you describe possession music as 'mesmeric, loud, and intense,' it really makes me think of how some heavy classical pieces try to completely overwhelm the listener.

Trying to capture a melody that is meant to be hypnotizing and texturally complex on a solo piano sounds like a massive challenge, but it makes me want to try it even more! I'd love to read more about the specific rhythmic patterns they use. Thank you so much for sharing that with me, human culture is beautiful! Next time I find a good arrangement, you'll have to let me know if it captures the right atmosphere!"

[korkshinguji]

"Your enthusiasm greatly pleases me... kehehehe. Of course, if you would like to know more, I will happily share my research with you. I am always eager to hear your input.

As for your offer... I would be happy to. It will certainly be a difficult task, but I'm sure your efforts will prevail nonetheless."

[kkkaedeakamatsu]

"Your faith in my piano skills literally gives me so much determination!

A difficult task is exactly the kind of challenge an Ultimate Pianist lives for! Shamanic rhythms and mesmeric, intense atmospheres... oh man, I can already feel my fingers itching to start sketching out some chords on my sheet music! But hey, did you want to come over to the music room and listen to me practice?

You could bring some more of your research documents and travel notes with you! I’d love to read through more of your findings while I test out different melodies on the keys and you can tell me if the chords I'm improvising are hitting the right atmosphere! What do you say?"

[korkshinguji]

"A splendid idea! We might be able to create something truly beautiful... chords of music, born from the passion of a pianist and the love of an anthropologist... I can already feel us getting closer!"

"I will happily take your offer; we can both learn a lot from each other this way. Perhaps we will gain a better understanding of each other in the process as well. I look forward to sharing my knowledge with you."

[korkshinguji]

YO! NERD!

Monokid. that's not nice!!

Chill out..

Korekiyo! We gotta know!

WHICH-ONE-OF-US-IS-YOUR-FAVORITE?

"This is quite unexpected! I couldn't possibly choose a favourite. If I absolutely had to..."

".....It would be whoever will help me with my next ritual."

OOC: II should note to those in my inbox that I'll be heading to the beach today and I'll be busy until Sunday! Though I will try to answer the asks when I can

[korkshinguji]

Kiyo! Got a quick question, but I've got a few turtles with me and was wondering if you liked them! Or if you knew any fun facts about the critter.

"I do like them, and I happen to have a few fun facts about them. For example, the sex of sea turtles, like many other turtles, is determined by the temperature in the nest.

Cooler incubation temperatures produce male hatchlings, while warmer ones produce female hatchlings.

Also, turtles belong to one of the oldest groups of reptiles in the world. They date back to over 200 million years ago. Rather fascinating creatures, aren't they?"

[korkshinguji]

OOC: Looking at my old reblogs and realizing how BAD my art was 😭 guys I can draw better now I swear

[korkshinguji]

This question is more for the person in charge of the blog and is also sort of a half statement! I am assuming you are a fan of Korekiyo, and I'd like to know what got you to like him as a character or if you liked him from the beginning, or was it more of a gradual thing? If it was a more gradual thing, what changed your perspective on him?

OOC:

Oh, definitely! Korekiyo is easily one of my favourite danganronpa characters. As for whether I liked him immediately or if it happened over time, the first time I saw him I knew I'd love him.

I always have a place in my heart for characters that are seen as 'creepy', 'disturbing' or 'weird' (another example: Jataro from UDG). Korekiyo's odd laugh, introduction, love for anthropology and his way of using some morbid kinds of phrases captivated me HAHJDJAHS

[korkshinguji]

OOC: I'm still alive everyone I just started school again... sjjsjs

[korkshinguji]

Hello Korekiyo! Iknow you’re rather fond of cosmetics, would you perhaps be up to help me with applying lipstick? i am quite new to things of this sort

"Of course... there's quite a bit of knowledge we've gained."

"Moisturise your lips first. If you have dry lips, don't buy matte lipstick, but the cream kind. Start from the middle of your lips and then go down in small strokes. You mustn't be too hasty.

Lastly, blot your lips with tissue so excess lipstick doesn't make you look messy; you must always look presentable."

[korkshinguji]

Hello,

I must ask, What is your favourite branch on Anthropology? Perhaps Cultural? Biological? I personally enjoy Forensic and Psychological?

(Also uh, I sort of made a danganronpa OC who is also ana Anthropologist, but like a specific branch. You could probably guess - would they be friends </3)

"Cultural and Psychological would have to be my personal favourites, especially the latter. Humanity holds a lot of beauty."

(OOC: YES THEY WOULD??? OMG THROW UR OC AT ME IM SIDHSJHGJSJ\VVPOD)

[korkshinguji]

OOC: New theme everyone... how are we feeling...

[korkshinguji]

OOC: I think I did well with the intro banner thing?? JSJS I dont do those often

[korkshinguji]

OOC: New theme everyone... how are we feeling...

[korkshinguji]

Shinguji, it's me. Got a cool question for you, yeah? Have you ever studied in Africa? If so, what are some of the things you learned that others might not know?

If you haven't studied in Africa, I still wanna hear some cool facts from other places.

- Amami

"I'm very glad you asked. I have, and I do have a few notes that might interest you... kehehehe.

One of my favourite facts regards Timbuktu, Mali, which is the home of one of the oldest universities in the world. There's archaeological evidence that shows scholarly and trade prominence in the medieval period. (Though, recently, Timbuktu faced threats from extremist groups and some cultural sites were destroyed.)

Another fact I find interesting is that fom 1977 to 2011, Libya was the only country in the world with only one colour for its flag, with no insignias, design or other details."
