What were you expecting?

Summary:

This better fucking work.
I swear to god I am going to kill someone if this doesn't work.
A blasting of words rushes across the camera screens in front of us.
Danganronpa 2 - Goodbye Despair flashes on the glass and we all hold out breathes as everything starts and processes.
Then a glitch flicks to life and there is a sprite of Junko Enoshima, laughing her ass off.
Then more text.
' This is Danganronpa 2 and I hope the despair doesn't crush you. <3 '
' Welcome to the Killing Game '
...
We are so fucked.

or
A rendition of danganronpa 2 where Y/N gets to be in it. Yayyyy.
I can't elaborate without spoiling anything but it does expand on the program and not just throw us into the universe with no additional value.

Chapter 1

(See the end of the chapter for notes.)

Chapter Text

Danganronpa 2 - Goodbye Despair.

Little chibi characters running around the screen across a background of various grayed out places. 1 thing remained constant though, a little dude with a tie wrapped around his neck. It was interesting and I honestly expected more but what could you possibly do when people lacked creativity? 

‘PRESS START’ was highlighted in red across the bottom of the screen and just underneath it was '©Spike Chunsoft Co., Ltd.All Rights Reserved' in a stark white format. 

Besides the one that stayed gently jogging in the middle of the screen there were a total of 16 different little people running, scurrying, and moving across the screen. As they came on, they stayed stationed beside the little man and left afterwards. 

I then focus on the screen behind them and, with a sadness I cannot help but feel, notice that there are only 5 little locations that act as a background. They couldn’t have splurged for 5 more minutes and made something worthwhile?

Then some of the blue checkers in the background occasionally flashing white. Odd. Not nearly awesome enough but whatever.

Oh god, just don’t let this be boring. I am going to be so pissed off if this shit is boring. 

I press my fingers and drag them across the glass surface of the screen and press against the start button. My vision bubbles and fold across the edges and I am overcome with a fear that maybe, just maybe, I was wrong.

 Heeheehee. 

Or maybe not.

Notes:

So this has been crawling around my brain for a good part of a year and I originally wanted to wait until I was done with my other story but that's only 2 chapters in and a third on the way. This has been stealing my motivation like a blood sucking vampire so I thought it would be good to just post it and write with whatever brings me joy at the time.
I am rewatching Jay from the Kuz Scouts playthrough for like the 8th time so if there is a lot of references from him specifically, you know why.

I wanted to have a highlighted section for this because I want to emphasize that this has a lot of really dark and graphic themes and that if any of them trigger you, please don't read this.

I also wanted to say that I am not just going to throw random interactions in where the characters go from not knowing each other to having sex on the floor. I am a firm believer in slow burn and will try to have a fair distribution through all the relationships, but I have a preference for Kazuichi and Gundam and it will show so I apologize in advance.
Needless to say, I am really excited to work on this, especially over the summer now that I finally have the free time and energy to do so.
Hope you guys love it and have a great day.
