Watching the wonderful, sexy @maybe-a-melon play Ultra Despair Girls and I forgot about the huge Monokuma Rave in Chapter Two that Toko and Komaru sneak away from.

New headcanon that this rave is being put on by Hiyoko and Ibuki during their Despair times. It just makes sense!

*spoilers for danganronpa goodbye despair*

Okay well it seems like you guys wanna hear about the AU so here i go, i'll warn yall now, this is probably gonna be pretty long. Also, tw for death. Okay so, all of the dr 2 cast being ultimate despairs was always a twist i really enjoyed, however I found myself really puzzled at imaging some of these kids being ultimate despairs, like how did Nekomaru become scarred enough to kill people or what about Hiyoko or Mahiru? This line of questioning eventually led me to Ibuki, a character, like the previously mentioned, I couldn't see being an ultimate despair. Ibuki already was a character I enjoyed thinking about because we know so little about her, most stuff we just have to infer due to her backstory being practically nonexistent. So naturally because of the circumstances surrounding her character, I figured i'd take some liberties with her despair arc as well and so far, this is how it goes.

So, Ibuki is a character who was essentially already developed before she even appeared in the game. She's got a strong will, a charming personality, and she doesn't care about others opinions of her. Even her entire free time events all revolve around Hajime, which is completely different from every other character. This means that something extremely awful would have to happen to Ibuki to get her to crack, or rather many awful things in one day. For Ibuki, I decided to take the killing joke approach, Ibuki's one bad day- I mean it spans over a couple of days but it's essentially the same concept.

The beginning of her descent takes place after Sato's death. While Ibuki wasn't as close with Sato as Mahiru was, they were still friends and her death cuts deep. The prospect that another student, most likely Fuyuhiko, committed this act only makes the situation worse. Yet, even in the face of this sorrow, Ibuki still tries her best to cheer the others up. However, her idea does not go as planned.

Mahiru refuses to speak to her at all, she's cut herself off completely from the group and makes an effort to distance herself from them. Hiyoko, shaken by the death of Sato and the loss of Mahiru, turns bitter and hostile. She lashes out at Ibuki, stating that no song of hers would bring Sato or Mahiru back. Lastly, Ibuki turns to Mikan, believing her to be her final hope. What she doesn't expect is Mikan's response.

Mikan, a depressed mess after Sato's death, wants nothing to do with Ibuki. Tears stain her cheeks and turn her eyes red, and when Ibuki attempts to comfort her she lashes out, asking Ibuki if she even cares about Sato's death. Ibuki states that of course she does but Mikan doesn't listen, "C-can't you think of anything else but p-pitying everyone around you?" "Aren't you sad?" "B-besides, there's no point anyway, not when we're broken up like th-this." Those words were like a stab in the gut to Ibuki, was that what this was? Was this just Ibuki's own way of grieving? Helping everyone else who she felt was worse off? And Mikan had a point, no matter how hard Ibuki tried, the group would never get back together, not like this.

And so, she left Mikan alone and in a depressed haze she reflected on what to do, now that her friends were gone. Then she thought back to only a few years ago, to the band she used to be in. She wondered how they were doing now, without her. And with nothing better to do she decided to plan a meetup, maybe they could catch up. What's the worse that could happen? So, with the only hope left within her, she made her way to the music room, their planned meeting place.

Ibuki's hands quivered at the door handle, remembering what had happened there only a few days before. She shook it off though, and pulled the door open with her best forced smile. It didn't take long for that smile to vanish. What Ibuki was greeted with when she opened the doors was nothing less than pure massacre. Lying on the stage lit by a spotlight were the bodies of her old band members.

Blood covered the stage, painting the wood a deep crimson. Their bodies were horribly brutalized, each one looked like they had suffered heavy physical trauma to the head and most were worse off than that. Legs bruised and twisted in awful angles, jaws broken and dangling from their heads by the sinew, eyes knocked from their bloody sockets. But that wasn't the worst of it. Lying in the center of all the bodies was a metal bat decorated in red and gore. And behind all of the girls was a symbol in blood streaming down the walls. A symbol of a bull skull. The Kuzuryu Clan's symbol.

Ibuki couldn't take it any longer. The sadness, the loneliness, the anguish of death. She couldn't take it any longer. She collapsed to the ground, tears streaming down her face, tears she had held inside for far too long. They felt like fire burning her cheeks. Rage, sorrow and grief, they all combined into a single emotion. She wiped her tears and her eyes became ignited with a dull wrath.

She walked to the stage and lifted the disgusting metal bat. And then, gripping it firmly in her hands, she reeled back and struck the bloodied wall. Then she struck again. And again. And again. And again. And again. And again. And again. Andagainandagain- until finally, the wall broke. The wall crumbled beneath her abuse and she could see the symbol no longer. That emotion was revenge.

As she backed away from her destruction, she tossed the bat aside and she gave one last look at the rubble. Her eyes then grew dull completely, devoid of anything but the fiery orbs of revenge. She had fully given in to her despair and she would make sure Fuyuhiko knew about it.

Wow kinda got a bit into it near the end there but yeah this is essentially my idea. tldr: Ibuki loses sato and her attempts to cheer everyone up ends in vain, as their friendship dies with sato. So, in an attempt to get her life together she tries to reconnect with her old band members only to find them all brutally murdered supposedly by the same culprit behind sato's murder, fuyuhiko. In actuality, this was simply planted evidence by the real killer, Junko, who heard about sato's murder as well as ibuki's meeting and decided to, "intervene." This is what I see as her descent into despair, but I also have plans for her time as an ultimate despair, if yall like this is i may continue with it.
