mmmmm Kokichi being forced to drop his evil asshole shtick to save his classmates in an emergency (ie something akin to the school catching on fire)
no thoughts just- it's something they have to act fast in and he either becomes a true monster and leaves a classmate in need of help behind, or he lets his DICE instincts take over and gets them to safety at the expense of his own. lil zest of angst if he got hurt in the process and now people are worried about him
i like the idea of this being an instance of Kokichi being a hero and Kaito short circuiting about it. Kaito does help in getting everyone to safety, but he's evacuating and not running into the danger to save someone trapped. Kaito can't wrap his head around Kokichi "dips every time hard work is involved" Ouma putting his life at risk for someone like that.
my idea for this is Kaito assumed when Kokichi was nowhere to be seen during the evacuation that he dipped and left everyone behind, then it's found out by a head count that Kokichi isn't present at all and neither is another student, they then find him and that student on the other side of the school with Kokichi injured and the other person passed out. Kaito now has to cope with the fact that one of the worst people he knows just did an act of heroism that he himself didn't have the guts to pull off.
i also love the idea of Kokichi preferring to be disliked and pushing away praise for his good deeds. like he gloats all the time about not that impressive bullshit, but the second he does something truely good and people call him a hero for it, he gets hella bitey. he gets super grumpy and strays away from everyone more than usual after this, hoping his cagey behavior will make people dislike him again so things can just go back to normal, but then Kaede has the AUDACITY to call his closing himself off "a Kokichi way of being humble". he's gonna fight her he swears (lies)
Kokcihi hating being heroic despite it being in his nature thanks to his time saving DICE's asses mmmmm
Explanation for this:
Dangaronpa V3 is kinda meh to me so this is my au in which Rantaro and Kaede are the main protagonist and antagonist duo.
I also think the 3rd trial is a big waste of potential. They had such a cool idea in mind with the whole "Korekiyo confessed to one murder but not the other" but then in the end it's revealed he actually commited both and it's like.... ok??? You're telling me we could've had a trial with 2 murderers who didnt know about eachother's exsistance and that no matter what there would be a killed left among the survivors??? Anyways in this au I like to pitch the idea of Himiko secretly being the second killer who accidentally murdered Angie and although Korkiyo did kill Tenko his crime doesn't count as Himiko killed Angie before him.
There could've been fun loopholes I'm just saying 🙄🙄🙄
Also I think the dynamic between Rantaro and Kaede could've been fun to explore in a "Kaede wants to trust and believe her friends while Rantaro is aware they could betray them at any moment" kind of situation

WE'RE SO BACKKKKK
my piece for the @drcriticaldicezine ! starring kaito and his adventuring party talking about their epic travels! he's only embelishing it a little bit~
you can check out the zine HERE for free! :D
the parts in chapter 3's trial where mikan's sprite lines up with the rope monomi is hanging from in the background make me feel insane
When Shuichi is ten years old, his uncle takes him to a shooting range. He stands next to him and steady his hands, preparing him for the recoil.
Leveling the gun at a dummy had sent panic and nausea through his body, zipping around even as his uncle comforted him. Leveling a gun at Kaito and the Monokuma attacking him felt so much more sickening.

Shuichi guesses fate heard him because when he walks up to a crime scene - an apartment that was broken into - already cleared by police, there's a disgruntled Kaito standing outside. He looks tired, he's nodding along to whatever a shorter person is saying to him but eventually she stops when they spot Shuichi. “Ah!” She turns and smiles softly at him, “Hello, Mr. Saihara,” “Sidekick?

based on a post i can't find for the life of me that talked about post dr1 makoto as future foundation propaganda and compared him to the ben affleck smoking picture.
