Danganronpa Alternate: Apologies to Hope (Reboot) [Deader than Disco]

Momoe Mizuno

Momoe expected the girl to continue lashing out, throwing insults or storming off. What she didn't expect, however, was for them to sink to their knees and start sobbing. It took her by surprise, blinking twice before regaining her own composure and continuing to act tough. She was about to open her mouth again, but a loud slam caught her attention instead. Momoe narrowed her one eye as she glared daggers at Shirou, carefully anticipating what he was going to say. The look on her face hadn't softened when he was finished, either.

"What the hell? Oh, sure, everything's alright with a kiss and a hug. Do I need to give her a massage too, sweeten the deal?" she mocked. Momoe took a step towards him, and as she did, a mousy voice caught her attention. Its source, Maiya, put herself in between Momoe and Shirou, causing the smuggler to glare at her instead.

"What do you want? Spit it out already."

Turns out what she wanted was the same tripe speech Shirou had tried to give, but at least this one had the guts to put herself in between the two of them. That, and she didn't put herself above the both of them like some almighty god-spawn of mankind. Momoe straightened herself and rubbed the back of her head, closing her eye.

"Tch, this was a waste of time... don't bother me for something like this again," Momoe warned, opening her one eye again to stare directly at Shirou. With that said, the girl turned to leave the mess hall. Her coat wafted in the breeze as she stepped out into the rest of camp, leaving the door open and allowing everyone to witness her retreating figure as she stalked off.

@Ammokkx One minor correction, Hanako changed out of her uniform before leaving school.

She's still pretty recognisable for being that short person with white hair.

@Raineh Daze

Mahou Shoujo no Hex Night: A Magical Girl Battle RP

~~Nico~~

---

Nico was looking at Himeko as the latter explained the guardian deity to her, awe-struck by the idea.

"Really? It only shows itself to shrine maidens? What kind of Deity is it?" she asked. Nico patiently awaited the older girl's response while her light steps made her bob up and down. Himeko began to explain and because of Nico's eagerness to listen she awaited every word with bated breath. Of course, because of this anticipation the girl failed to notice her companion being in a direct collision course with another person, making Nico flinch and jump back once it had happened.

"Ah... are you two alright?"

Nico watched as the smaller of the two scrambled up and started to profusely apologise to Himeko, noticing that the girl seemed familiar. Nico looked around and saw she wasn't too far removed from her school, with the girl who was previously on the floor being really short and having white hair that drooped all the way down to her waist.

"Aren't you Hanako-san?" Nico asked, recognizing the girl being from a different class. She looked back up to Himeko as well, taking note of the honorific which was used. Both of them shared the same last name, but they couldn't be sisters right? Siblings aren't this formal with each-other, usually...

"Do you two know each other, Yuki- Himeko-san?" Nico asked, switching to her first name to avoid confusion.

What's Your Favorite Moment That Happened in an RP? (It can be either your character or someone else's!)

Not really a forum-based RP, but a tabletop one. You know Maid RPG? Yeah, that one.

So our GM is kind of a crazy motherfucker that allows just about any madness to happen, so you had this household of a shy robot maid with chainsaw hands, smol loli brat that's actually a vampire and lazy neko so good at stealth none of the players could ever track her down. We also tried playing as friends, but constantly got into each other's hair anyway.

Maid RPG also has a random event system you can use and I swear every session had a ninja break-in. Our last session had us finding a nuke in the basement, so naturally every player scrambled to it. The GM was super lax with the roll requirements, so we were like "Aight this'll work" with whatever we did.

Nothing worked.

We tried de-fusing it thrice, I tried breaking the thing, we even tried talking to it out of desperation. After about 8 rolls of fucking up, the GM went "Okay, fuck this. You all decide to work together; add up all your rolls and if it exceeds my set requirement the bomb's defused."

Cue all three of us rolling the lowest possible roll we could've gotten, leading to our maids jumping on it to try and shield the master in vain as the mansion and country blew up due to our sheer incompetence.

We also never played Maid RPG again.

Let's Gush!

@TheSeriousJoke Rebooting an RP is not something that anyone wants to do, but it does show the determination of the GM running the thing. Part of me wishes I had stuck around, but it seems like things worked out for both of us. As someone who's completed 3 cases on their own Danganronpa RP, I can appreciate the amount of planning that goes into a murder mystery RP like that. I wish you well, and I'm always open to talking with fellow murder mystery fans.

@BrokenPromise

can confirm, @TheSeriousJoke is an amazing GM and a lovely person

_{now if only she could kill off shirou already everything would be perfect}

Danganronpa Alternate: Apologies to Hope (Reboot) [Deader than Disco]

yeah, I don't like leaving a blank post. My opinions have changed enough on most characters to warrant doing this and get something productive out of it. I'll only post my thoughts here on characters I think are worth mentioning, full overhauls are coming at some other point.

Tsuin Taka/Tsuin Taya, the SHSL Cross-Dresser

Taka is not a character. His problem is that he had a good dynamic in the original run, but is left woefully wanting in this one. I need more time to hopefully establish them. That said, the Taya persona has been working miracles. Having her decide to interact with Izo was a good idea as the two bounce well off each-other, with Izo being stoic giving a nice contrast to Taya's bubbly energy. I'm not sure if this'll be a one-time thing, but I'm definitely impressed with how well both characters shine by talking to each other... because really, that's all they've been doing. Talking to each other.

Taka: 4/10
Taya: 7/10

Usui Ayu, the SHSL ???

Oh poor Ayu. I haven't been able to squeeze her into any worthwhile situations, except for one interacting with Momoe. That one post was good, as far as I'm concerned, but everything else I've written with her has been woefully lacking and bland. I hope I handle this character better in the future.

5/10

Snow Iclyn, The SHSL Hairdresser

Best. Fucking. Character. She's so dynamic and has such realistic reactions to all the happenings around her. I think Adda has been on-point with her from day 1, and I'm absolutely in love with their characterisation.

10/10

Yukimori Maiya, the SHSL Improvisational Engineer

So originally I had this whole thing where Maiya feels one-note and bland, but then Lana hits me in the face with a goddamn baseball bat and calls me a cunt for doing it by posting in the middle of writing this. The post sure as shit helps Maiya feel like a character and not just 'cinnamon bun simulator 2021'

that being said, the post itself has one flaw: overusing her stutter. Maiya stutters about twice in most dialogue sections and that's just too much. There's better ways to get her shyness across than this. In fact, you've been doing it: Having her panic internally and constantly second-guessing herself. Stop relying on the stutter and start relying on that, damn it! But yeah, Maiya is going the right way.

7/10

Saitou Izo, the SHSL Fanatic

Izo's good.

7/10

Emiya Shirou, the SHSL Hero of Justice

Perfectly flawed. Emiya is the perfect example of a good 'perfect' guy. He's selfless, he's kind, he fights for what's right... and it makes him so, so wrong.

He doesn't know what being a hero is, despite being the perfect hero. He tries to help everyone, but can easily make a situation worse. He tries to do the right thing and does it, but in the wrong way. Emiya is fucking great.

But I'm still going to call you out on ripping him from somewhere else, even if this clearly isn't the same guy.

8/10

Flare Dawnray, the SHSL Guide Dog Trainer

Flare impressed me once we got around to the second day. We can see her being proactive and useful while not hogging the spotlight, and she definitely feels like there's a lot of depth to be found in her. Adda's doing really good on her.

7/10

Himura Chikako, the SHSL Rhythm Game Player

In the same vein as Flare, Serious has Serious-ly impressed me with Chikako. Chikako is dynamic, active and really fucking dumb. That makes her endearing and I think Serious knows exactly what she's doing with her. It's a joy to read this character fuck up in new ways each time and we can all collectively cringe at her in the best way possible.

8/10

Fuduka Naomi, the SHSL Linguist

This one has been hurt the most by Aime being gone. Unlike Ryuma and Hibiki, she's not a character who I had any thoughts on that remained intact despite not being around. The former two had clear character and intrigue ahead of time, but Naomi lacked anything to make her stand out and be interesting. For that reason, unfortunately, she feels like a waste of a slot at the moment.

3/10

Mizuno Momoe, the SHSL Smuggler

Okay, real talk? I didn't expect Momoe to blow up like she did. She's... not a character I intended to be this much in the spotlight. Much like Ando, she was designed to be a character to cause some discord among the cast. Unlike Ando, she's really fucking good at her job and doesn't look stupid while doing it. Momoe is very wrong about everything and is too harsh on everyone. I feel like there's a lot of potential there still to unwrap, and I like that everyone seems to think so too.

8/10

Danganronpa Alternate: Apologies to Hope (Reboot) [Deader than Disco]

Momoe Mizuno

Momoe smirked at Hiroki. She didn't figure the guy had a backbone, but seeing him recognize the situation as stupid made him score points in her book.

"Yeah, no shit right? Knew you had your head screwed on right."

While Momoe was turned to Hiroki, she could pick up agitated shouting from the other side of the room. The girl ignored it, mostly, up until it started to get closer. The hairdresser poking Momoe's shoulder caused her wrist to be swiftly grasped, then slowly crushed into a fine paste underneath Momoe's grip. The smuggler had a decent amount of muscle, befitting of her rough looks. She turned her head away from Hiroki, slowly and methodically, while pushing herself up to a standing position. Momoe didn't exactly tower over Snow, but she was still taller than her, so she used that height advantage to make herself imposing. Her one eye pierced through Snow's own gaze as Momoe's face turned to that of a stone cold killer's, without a hint of compassion or fear.

"Oh, I'm sorry... did I scratch the petals of our delicate little flower?" Momoe asked as she tightened her grip.

"Listen here, you overgrown toddler. I get that you're shitting your pants in fear right now because you miss the warm, five-star meal cooked by your mother every morning. But you want to know something? I'm the one who's familiar with what it's like to break rules. With what it's like to go against authority. I know exactly what kind of results that gets you.

Yeah, people got shot yesterday. You know what that was? A warning shot. A sign you should keep in line. I said you could be my guest if you wanted to throw your life away so easily, because I can guarantee nobody will miss your whiny face. Do you think they would kidnap a hacker, then give her all the tools in the world to escape? Do you really think we have any freedom in this place? Sure, If you want to die without accomplishing anything, you try to break down that door. You tempt our captors. Because I sure as shit know what it's like to be in a prison, and what tempting the guard does to you. And for the record,"

The smuggler pushed Snow's arm backwards to make her stumble away from Momoe, but the criminal immediately stepped forward and grabbed Snow by the collar so she couldn't run. She brought her face in closer, not once breaking eye-contact.

"I don't like being touched by some spoiled, uppity bitch."

And with that, Momoe pushed Snow away again, using the newly freed hand to brush her own sloppy hair aside. She pocketed it soon after, keeping her eyes dead-center on Snow's features.

Taya Tsuin

"Yeah, a total fool! I bet he's secretly a bully, too..." Taya continued to pout, burying her cheeks inside of her elbows while leaning forward on the canteen table. She perked up again once Saitou mentioned all of them getting out together, a sense of pride and accomplishment welling up inside of her.

"I knew you didn't give up yet! I just knew you weren't the type of person to back down from a challenge so quickly... call it a gut feeling!"

Taya's beaming smile could melt ice with the warmth and kindness it radiated. It radiated so hard, in fact, that the room could very well be quarantined for threat of radiation poisoning. Her soft expression didn't fade even as Chikako proposed a really insane plan, instead giggling at the enthusiasm.

"I don't think that's the solution, either... but everyone seems to want to work together. I... I have a good feeling that we'll all- Eep!"

Before she could finish her sentence, Taya jumped from Iclyn's sudden outburst. She turned to watch what was happening, helplessly witnessing the girl stampede towards Mizuno. Her eyes widened and she wanted to stop her, but before Taya had a chance to react, Mizuno had already forcibly grasped Iclyn's wrist.

"N-No, Mizuno! Stop!" Taya tried to shout in vain, her plea falling on deaf ears as the rough girl pushed away the hairdresser, who promptly collapsed and started to tear up. Taya covered her mouth in horror and shock, awe-struck in the worst possible way as she couldn't avert her eyes from the scene that had unfolded in front of her.

"That's... that's too cruel, Mizuno..." Taya muttered to herself with a shaky voice.

I know the feeling... GM'ing is an up and down experience.

@Enkryption

I'd say this is more accurate given my experiences with it.
