how did you meet hoodie, miu?

Dude crawled onto my shop doorstep covered in blood on New Year’s day, insisting “no hospitals, no Hope’s Peak”. I helped clean him up, and understood why. The dude said he’d been stabbed, but there wasn’t any wound on him anywhere. And, seriously, no matter the universe, when Makoto Naegi, the man who broke Junko Enoshima by talking, tells you to do something, you fucking do it.

… Not that telling him who he is will get you anywhere… he just keeps insisting his name is “Zonbi” over and over again.

Tell me I’m not the only one that thinks it’s fucking weird that a guy who has that much to go back to decided to instead stay with the weird, perverted inventor and insist that she be the Lucius Fox to his Batman, and also insists that he’s a zombie. 

Naomi sends byakuya the thing she should have and kind of just smiles, lying back.

*In Iruma’s lab, the hooded figure takes off their jacket, then their shirt, proceeding to remove the various small devices littered around their chest* These did help immensely. I was much faster than even I expected.

Of course you were, I invented the damn things. They not only boost your reaction time, but your physical speed as well. It’s like getting the caffeine rush from drinking twenty cups of coffee and twenty more energy drinks, except better, and it won’t kill you. Probably. By the way, feel free to keep your shirt off a while.

So, Iruma, let me get this straight… you decided to go around playing tech support for a vigilante, why exactly?

Eh, mainly ‘cause I could. 

Also, we’re targeting Invidia in particular because they’re a bunch of self-righteous, arrogant pricks who think that they have the right to decide who’s right and who’s wrong. And they had the fucking gall to try and do it in a killing game originally.

“From what he and you guys said when he came along you told him not to and he went ahead with it anyway, given other context clues this indicates to me he’s either overconfident, stupid, or desperate. All of which make for a liability rather than an asset.” -Cassia

Cate: And that’s a fair assessment. But I took chances on all of you when I approached you to be part of this, and I’m willing to take a chance now. And if this backfires, I will accept full responsibility and deal with the consequences.

*Stephen walks up to Cate, standing beside her* I don’t trust Hatamaya, but I trust Cate. Changing the world like we’re trying to do here has been her dream since- *he catches himself* For a long time. I trust her judgement here. And I trust that she plans on taking full responsibility if it backfires.
