Ayo This Is True

Do ya'll read @lunarleonardo's fics? You should, they put the V3 cast THROUGH IT!

This comes from chapter 16 of love letter

As my favorite character, Kokichi spiraling makes me very invested. I love his POV.

I did want to color this but, my wrist was hurting lol - I'll probably get around to a different piece with color. Also, I don't remember the V3 dorm bathroom, so I get to just, modify THH's bathroom.

Original sketch below the break!

hello!!! i just stumbled across your resurgence au (i think that's the name lol) and it looks super cool!!!! :OOO may i ask what is maki's whole deal,,,i love her a lot :3

It's Maki time!

So in Resurgence, like the rest of the V3 cast, Maki is saved from the simulation by Future Foundation. I've touched on this in a few older posts, but their recovery took place in a hastily thrown together field base/hospital in a city that's still pretty deep in despair. It was a matter of not being able to get transport in for everyone right away - they had a set date for the helicopters to come for them all.

By unfortunate coincidence (coincidence, huh) - the day the helicopters come, the hospital is bombed by a Despair mob. They weren't so happy with their show being cancelled by stupid teenagers (THH was streamed to the world, then despair audiences kinda gutted and reverse engineered the Neo World Program after the Remnants were restored to their og personalities, I'd say it's probably because of the brainwashed Future Foundation members that it got out to the world - so yeah "Danganronpa" is a "TV" show in that regard, but its not how the V3 ending explains it)

Maki was in a separate wing from most of the others when the bombs went off, and her escape route ended up on the side where the mob was gathered (a lot of the others got around the mob by going out other exits) - So Maki has to fight her way to safety, and unfortunately, she misses out on the helicopter evacuation.

Now, Maki can take care of herself. She might not be Ultimate Apocalypse Survivor, but she has the training to patch wounds, adapt to harsh conditions, and defend herself. So she's doing about as fine as one can in a city that's basically an active war zone.

Then Kaede shows up.

Honestly, I'm not sure why I chose Kaede, I really wanna explore that dynamic but haven't gotten around to it yet - I think their personalities would blend and butt against each other in a situation like this, it's like a hardcore setting for the killing game with no rules. Kaede was with Future Foundation as a field agent, but her squad got separated during an attack (they were probably looking for the missing V3 cast) - Funnily enough Kaito, Tenko, and Shuichi were on that squad so - yikes on missing them.

So now it's Maki and Kaede vs the world!

Until Kaede's radio starts unscrambling itself and picking up Future Foundation communications again - but they can't reply it seems. The signal seems to fade in and out each time they leave this district, maybe they should investigate, right?

... Oh hi Kokichi and Kiibo!

That's about as far as I've gotten in the general aspect of Maki's arc! I could go into detail about points up until now, but this post is already getting long on me. There will be bonding, there will be old scores to settle, there will be... forgiveness? Well, it's too early to say. I think the four of them are an interesting squad to shove into the apocalypse together, especially knowing the later game dynamics of Kokichi, Kiibo, and Maki, and me basically having to figure out Kaede and if the blank slate of her not being around for most of V3 is something that helps them all get along or complete ruins the dynamic at moments.

I havent had much time for digital drawings

I’d love to see your Shadowsight design!!

I Frankenstein'd him.

I am a firm believer of giant fluffy Shadowsight - he is the closest thing we got to a raccoon for now.

Allow me a moment to ramble about Shadowsight, please: When he was first introduced I thought we were dealing with another reincarnation. Though not an ancient cat, I legit thought Shadowsight was an eldritch being reincarnated (a being like Midnight or Rock). I wanted this kitten to preach about the beginning of earth in his visions. So when Broken Code finally all came out, I had to put that aside and realize they missed another potential - removing him from the medicine den (BY CHOICE) and making him a warrior. It would've been so nice to subvert the typical Warrior -> Med that was prevalent for a while by doing the opposite with Shadowsight (Though it might be a rule in the med code against it? I don't have a copy of Moth Flight's Vision so, ya'll would have to let me know).

Anyway, this is specifically Shadowsight from the end of TBC. His eye markings/actual eye were all deliberately covered in scars to show the disconnect from his visions/ancestors. Scarless version is below:

I wanted something more serious but this is all my brain could produce

Chapter 17 of love letter my beloved

Your support is appreciated and life-saving.

!!!

this is the moment i start keeping the parts of Future i liked and contort the rest. There is NOT a lot that stays the same.

anyway, warriors of hope minus monaca have entered the game!

hellouu sorry to bother just wanted to say thank you for sharing your unnamed pg kokichi with kiibo head au..... i'm going to think about it forever i'll pay you millions and billions to post more about it. i really enjoy how sick of this shit kokichi looks.

do you have anything else to share about it? i'd love to hear if you do but no pressure.. i was also wondering if you think they'd encounter their classmates at any point and what they'd be up to? i think it would be really interesting. i can't help thinking about kokichi placing kiibo somewhere safe temporarily to go do something important, and a classmate who doesn't know kiibo is just head now somehow stumbling upon him and their soul leaving their body for a second while kiibo is just. :>. like it's the most normal thing in the world. that is not that funny but i am entertained. so so sorry for the long stupid annoying ask. your post triggered an explosion in my head i think.? thank you

Kaito thought it was a ghost and proceeded to neglect to tell the others about it for two weeks.

But yes! Please, keep asking, I will have a lot more posts in the future as I flesh it out some more.

It's been many a babble I've been thinking about, so there's not a lot I have written down or really set in stone, but I can say this:

A lot of the others escaped the hospital attack with the Future Foundation. They work with them now. But not all of them!

The attack happened kinda early into recovery - and on top of that, the extraction from the program was not easy, so our human classmates are not... exactly free from health issues. This is called foreshadowing :D

The plan is for them all to get reunited, yes, but we'll just have to see how it goes.

Kokichi is done with it all. He could not give less of a shit. But, he supposes he could get Kiibo back to the others before dipping out.

on top of all that, no one has finished therapy - including me.

But yeah, I just found the idea really funny. A lot of postcanon aus take place separated from the Tragedy, and I love the setting of Ultra Despair Girls, so I figured I'd shove my favorite cast into it. This is my brainworm.

Now hopefully that allows me to GIVE IT A NAME.

Fine

I'll do it myself

I'm a little in love with the idea of Kokichi going through a Kamukura phase, long hair and all.

I want this to put people in a panic about another "dangerous" Ultimate being bored, meanwhile he's content to just flop in a corner. It makes me giggle.

Hajime just gets a sudden shiver all the way over on Jabberwock.
