I am in a discord server (its real danganronpa hours up in here, for the people who are also in there wink wonk @the-angelic-one) and over the course of 2 days i’ve come up with 2 aus with them, 2 more then I ever have any other day ever
aus under the cut (DRV3 spoilers for the second au)
au 1~ Superhero Au
completely undeveloped nonsense take on a super hero au. spawned from a conversation that was going on talking about someone else’s super hero au, and more pointedly discussing what power shuichi would have. we were talking about what if shuichi was a telepath when someone goes
ouma: hey look at what I found on the internet
ouma’s phone: that one person saying you can scream forever in your head
saihara: oh shit-
and then we started joking about what reaction saihara would have, and I was sorta inclined to write something for it and I am working on that currently! mayhaps ill develop it more.
au 2~ Alternate DRV3/DRV4
an au where instead of saihara ending the killing games, tsumugi throws away the mastermind show at the end, kills saihara, and is found guilty. she is executed and then the remaining survivors, Kiibo, Maki, and Himiko are also “executed”
CUE DRV4. New cast, some old faces.
DRV4, STARRING:
Himiko Yumeno, F ~ SHSL Jeweler
Maki Harukawa, F ~ SHSL Star Mapper
Kiibo Idabashi, M ~ SHSL Hacker
Tomoko Kajinami, F ~ SHSL Snow Leopard Breeder
Juichiro Nanikami, M ~ SHSL Toymaker
Itaru Toshiro, M~ SHSL Broadway Actor
Konoha Mori, F ~ SHSL Herbalist
Asashi Doi, M~ SHSL Sitcom Writer
Yae Yumeno, F ~ SHSL Illusionist
Akinobu Kamone, M ~ SHSL Baker
Kasai Fujisatu, NB ~ SHSL Arsonist
and the 5 we don’t have names for yet:
F ~SHSL Pathfinder
M ~ SHSL Stonecarver
F ~ SHSL Horseback Rider
M ~ SHSL Cowboy
NB ~ SHSL Ventriloquist.
a LOT on the drv4 au, but what we have currently is Maki is the protagonist. The reset doesn’t work wholly on maki, she starts remembering things, most specifically Kaito the Star Guy and Dumb Kinda Funny Idiot Saihara. She has flashbacks thru the course of DRV4 but tells no-one.
Konoha Mori, The Ultimate Herbalist, also the mastermind, witnesses her largest flashback of ch5 ouma's death and the arrow bullshitery, pulls a 180 and ka-yeets monokuma, and the killing games ends as a simulation because don’t ask me why, i’m the author, i choose what happens... [maki is reunited with kaito at the end because here drv3 would also have been a simulation.]
New Chapter of Despair Roulette is out now! Why not read the whole thing to catch up before the coming despair?
For my new readers, a semi-interactive Danganronpa Experience awaits! The chapters will change depending on your FTE choices, sometimes subtly and sometimes in massive ways!
Any criticism and/or theories will always be appreciated :D
