As an alternative to 'sugar, spice, and everything nice'
I present: 'salt, vinegar, and everything sinister'
it's good to remember once again that Danganronpa, for all its Goof, is a really Interesting Thesis on crime and punishment. i've gone on and on about this before so i won't belabor the point too much, but one thing i'm just now realizing while i'm reading DR0: it's very telling that Kodaka writes Junko's personality, underneath it all, as genuinely cheery and sweet.
stripped of a backstory and connections and any sense of self, Fashion Hitler is, in fact, just a girl who wants to be normal. there is no evil inherent in her. there's no Enoshima Gene or Enoshima Syndrome or Enoshima Aura that makes her crave despair at the bottom of her very being. she's Eve before the Serpent. laid bare to our cores we are Ryoko Otonashis each and every one
Zombie au where you’re saved by Floyd.
Although you’re not too sure whether you really should be thankful that he’s taken an interest in you. Nor after you’ve watched him swing that spike covered bat into the face of a corpse, laughing away like a maniac.
You do understand different people have different ways to cope, whether it’s turning off their emotions entirely or… fully indulging in their emotions. Floyd seems like the lather, laughing and cackling away as he dispatches the horde that was swarming you.
You would run away if you could, but… there’s something deep in you that craves for company, whether it be from a manic or not.
Also, he’s more than capable of protecting you, really. You do want to stay alive, at the moment. Being a zombie is quite disagreeable.
So when he offers you a blood-soaked hand, all you do is take it.
And try your best not to wince at the crimson coating your hands now.
“This is the house that built me and I’m gonna burn it down. This is the river I crawled from and I refuse to drown here. And bless the strippers but fuck the men. And bless the berries but fuck the farm. And bless the daughter but fuck the family. What is a home if not the first place you learn to run from? You’ve got to bite the hand that starves you, and in doing so Praise the place that birthed you. Birthed you fucked up. Birthed you ugly, and interesting, and ready to scream.”
[ID: a parody of the "will you perish like a dog" meme featuring Ritsu and Teru from MP100. Ritsu is looking at teru with a worried expression, saying "Everything we know and love is reducible to the absurd acts of chemicals, and therefore there is no intrinsic value in this material universe!" Teru is smiling and responds, "Hypocrite that you are, for you trust the chemicals in your brain to tell you they are chemicals. All knowledge is ultimately based on that which we cannot prove. Will you fight? Or will you perish like a dog?"/END ID]
(mob voice) ritsu and hanazawa are saying their big words again

Isn’t that first one from an Obama dream?

❀ NOTE: sorry to keep @kkalimarii waiting for this, a bit rushed but I hope my vision was visioning. While I was gone you dropped new art (now I have to go write a fic for it too LOL)
You hesitated before walking through the door, you looked down at yourself before looking back to which Floyd smiles at you.
He leans down to your level, “Are ya scared or something?” You shake your head then you feel a hand on your back.
“You have nothing to be afraid of.” Jade flashes a pristine smile.
“There’s a lot to be afraid of which includes you!”
“your au isn’t completely canon compliant”
canon is but the sandbox in which i strike lightning to form glass. trouble me no more with your quibblings and quorums, lest i grind you to dust beneath my heel and build stories from the remnants of your bones. avast, foul fiend
“If the world chooses to become my enemy, I will fight like I always have.”
kinda funny when english teachers say stuff like “i can tell if you didnt read the book” or “i can tell when people bs their paper”
no you cant. you can tell when people are bad at bs-ing their paper. i didnt even read the sparknotes and i barely skimmed the wikipedia and you gave me an A. you kneel before my throne unaware that it was born of lies
