â || âThe impossible is possible! All you gotta do is make it so!â [selective + private rp blog for kaito momota from danganronpa v3Â â written by sammy]
Hey Tumblr, itâs been awhile. Long ramble on what the hellâs been up with me (read: why Iâve been ghosting everyone enough to legally be considered a poltergeist) under the cut. There is a TL;DR btw.
This feels weird to type up because I always intentionally try and make my posts like this impersonal and to the point, but I kind of feel the need to open up a little about my mental state, mainly because I feel Iâve been giving off the aura that I donât care about people I truly consider friends, or at least want to.
Quite frankly, I have commitment issues. Iâve had so many rp blogs in the past, and even personal blogs that I abandoned wordlessly because I got a bout of anxiety and then was too anxious to go back and explain myself. I made about a million accounts on the same virtual pet sites as a kid because I mentally couldnât go back to something I abandoned for too long. And I guess I have a tendency to just stop talking to people. Iâve also kind of figured people donât want to talk to me so itâs fine if I donât talk to them. Itâs not fine; I probably made people feel bad because people do care about me, and if I have, Iâm sorry about it because I do value the friendships Iâve made on Tumblr.Â
Several months ago I was talking to friends both online and in person all the time, and Iâve kind of mostly stopped that because I got scared of talking to people. It was a relief at first, but now Iâve just been feeling lonely a lot of the time. Thereâs no way to say this without sounding dramatic, but I have very little experience with having friends/an active social life and thanks to putting myself out there a bit more on the internet/starting university I got a much more involved social life very very quickly. I made me a happier person but at the same time I just kept trying to pretend I knew what I was doing/was perfectly put together, but that just wasnât/isnât the case. Itâs hard to put into words but the smallest things scare me. Iâll spend 30 minutes writing a sentence to people I know very well during a casual conversation and it gets exhausting.
To make a long story short(er), I was in a pretty bad depressive mood a couple months back and I guess the pressure of wanting to isolate myself+being lonely because I was isolating myself+bad social anxiety got to be too much and I just kind of broke down. And then I had to travel to visit my parents and then I had to get (unrelated) medical stuff done and somewhere in all that things got better. And I was waiting for things to be normal again to get back in the swing of things but I donât think things will be the same. Because Iâm changing. I was a totally different person just 6 months ago, and thatâs a great thing! It means I can do things better and not just fall into the same cycle.
Again this feels weird and dramatic and thatâs not the intention. Iâm not looking for a bunch of concerned messages, in fact that sounds intimidating and overwhelming. Iâm not even sad writing this. I actually feel good being able to think this all though. Recently it seems like every YouTuber I watch is hitting rock bottom before getting better. Maybe itâs some kind of cosmic thing. Maybe everyone on Earthâs crazy and starting to get better right now.
Either way, I feel like I give off the impression that I donât care about keeping friendships when they honestly mean the world to me. I want to put effort into my relationships and I want to be a better version of myself. So, if you want to talk or talk more or talk again, say hi. Start a conversation about video games or something. Iâll try to get better at starting conversations myself and really just try to keep the people I care about in my life.
As for activity, writing Kaito is introspective as hell and good for my mental health, I think. And I love it. Things are still hectic in my life, but I want to brush the cobwebs off this blog soon(-ish?).
TL;DR: Basically the point of this is that I have awful social anxiety that Iâm rarely upfront about, and I know isolating myself hurts others just as much or more than it hurts me. I care about the friendships Iâve made on Tumblr, even though starting conversations is a daunting task. Iâve met amazing people here and if you want to be friends with me I probably want to be friends with you too. I just donât have much experience making/keeping friends. But on the bright side, I think Iâm in a mental place where I can at least try to change that.
ââcourse I got! Sadly I gotta admiâ thaâ some days are jusâ borinâ and all Iâd do is sit arounâ and eat chilli dogs, but, yâknow.â
Sonic chuckled a little as he stood confidently, he loved bragging about his adventures after all. Normally people would only roll their eyes, because he uses to exaggerate things to make himself sound cooler but in reality he just sounds stupid and awkward. But he likes bragging. Please let him brag.
âAm still âlways very busy. People love me rescuinâ them, after all. Like, guess am jusâ thaâ amazing.â
Sonic. Your. Ego.
âEggâeadâs probably been up to somethinâ, since a lot of his roboâs are goinâ arounâ lately. Not a big âssue but still prominenâ, I guess.â
Sonicâs exploits as a hero made him well-known enough for Kaito to understand what he was talking about, though it didnât matter to Kaito how well-known Sonic was. He was still perfectly fine with offering his opinion on everything with the little context he was given.
âIf his robots are going around, why are you just sitting here talking to me? Hell, why are either of us sitting here talking? We can yap about being great adventurers all we want, but weâre not gonna be able to brag about it for long if we pass up on the excitement going on right now!âÂ
It may have been a bit of an overreaction, but honestly, all the talk of sitting around was only making Kaito more restless. âWe can team up and take those bots down! Itâll be easy as a piece of cake! Then I can tell you some stories of my own afterwards! What do you say?â
Hello, hello! Ever wanted to talk to a girl thatâs totally an Ultimate Fashonista? A girl that occasionally says ominous things but is totally a cute ray of diva-tinted sunshine through and through? A girl that is definitely not Mukuro Ikusaba in a wig?
Then you have sure as hell came to the right place! Leave me a like or give a reblog, and Iâll check your blog out, might even give you my autograph! Thanks!Â

                 The stories that I heard as a child kept me dreaming,
           where magic runs free and imprisoned suns remain always gleaming
                    The fairy tales I loved have taught me
                  That no matter what hurdles there may be
                         Your wish comes trueâŠ
                     (Was I a fool to trust in those lies?)
âCammy, I told you, Iâm not gonna let you be a shut-in. I want you to take time off cause you deserve it. You work too hard!â Kaito wondered if the words we going to fall on deaf ears again.
âLook, I donât wanna bring up any hard memories, but lifeâs been shit for you lately. I get that much. Sitting around here wishing it wasnât isnât gonna make it better.â His tone was as harsh as it was genuine. In reality, all his pushing was for him as much as it was for Yukio. Life lately was confusing. He wanted to have fun like a normal high schooler for once. âHaving a good night wonât fix it, yeah, but itâll help!â
Kaito leaned over her desk, trying to block her vision from the chemicals she had her eyes on. âI know youâll regret not going. Isnât it every girlâs dream to dress up nice and go to a school dance or something? I donât want you missing out on this!â
Miuâs voice was so soft, something Kaito hadnât come to expect from her at all. But this was the real Miu? Only because thatâs who she was right now, he figured. After all, he was the real Kaito too, right? Heâd been warned that talking to the people who didnât keep their personalities or memories from the simulation could be confusing or frightening, but Miu looked so scared, and Kaito didnât want to leave her alone.
âI, er, Iâm glad youâre okay.â The rest of what she said didnât make much sense to him. She was acting like she knew him, but she couldnât. He didnât really exist before all this. âI donât really know what you mean, but if I wanted to study, I donât think I could do it in a place like this.â He took a moment to look around barren looking building they were stuck at while they were briefed on the simulation. âItâs pretty damn depressing hereâŠâ
Glad youâre okay.Â
Wow. She never knew she wanted to hear something in his voice that badly. Happy tears welled in her eyes, grabbing fist fulls of his shirt she stayed close to him. The more he talked the more she wanted to demand the affection he had deprived her of. It took every nerve in her body to not pull his hands to touch her hair and face, some sign that he did love her.Â
âY-yeah, it isâ it is depressing. I want to go home KaitoââÂ
Her voice sounded nearly panicked from how fast she was talking. It was more excitement, he was feeling the same as her about something. It was confusing how he didnât know what she meant by studying. Though that might have been a good signâ this new Kaito felt like a blessing. A true blessing.Â
âI missed you.âÂ
She didnât know why. Where was this place anyway? Who were these people?Â
As Miu explained herself, Kaito slowly pieced together what she was talking about. âIruma, er, I wanna go home too. And I wanna help you, make sure youâre okay and all that. But I donât really... remember what youâre talking about.â He didnât want to say it. Miu was clearly close with whoever he used to be.
He kept her close, rubbing her shaking shoulders as he continued on. âIâve only got my memories from the simulation. I donât remember my life before all this. So, er, I donât remember you.â He couldnât looks at her face after saying it, not wanting to have to possibly see it drop.
âBut hey!â His demeanor changed abruptly, mostly out of desperation for something that wasnât soul-crushingly hopeless. âI never watched that video Team Danganronpa has of me before the killing game! Maybe itâll jog my memory if I check it out.â He didnât want to care about the person he used to be, but his need to help Miu outweighed that.
