[ He smacks her hand away. The last thing he wants right now is her help.
But what Shuuichi is saying doesn't make any sense. Another thing he can't seem to wrap his head around. But then, he can't see the processes of his beloved's brilliant mind.
But still, he trusts in him. Just like he's always done. If anyone can beat this crazy bitch, it's him. ]
["The reason this madness has gone on fifty-three times is because of hope!"
"It's because the audience wants hope!"
"They want to see hope defeat despair in the end!"
"It's Hope's Peak Academy all over again!"
"So if we fight for hope, we'd just be giving them what they want!"
"And the killings will never end!"
There's a brief moment Shuuichi's words start to pierce through. Monokuma tries to interject and rush them to decide their vote, but... Shuuichi isn't having it.
"I have to know something before we vote."
Tsumugi for her part is looking very suspicious, hiding her face.
"...What is it?"
Shuuichi puts the puzzle pieces together. 'Sacrificing' themselves doesn't mean Keebo and Maki's lives will be taken. It means they'll be forced to participate in the next killing game. Maki will be the next Ultimate Survivor, and the game will go on. All because the audience wants it.
"I won't forgive this game that treats us like toys. And if this is what the world wants... then I reject that world! I'll fight the world that inflicts suffering for entertainment!"
[ Now it's finally starting to make sense. And yet, he still hates it. He's right, of course. It's terrible. It's all terrible. Attaboy, Shuuichi! He knew he could count on you.
And once Shuuichi has made up his mind, he knows it's not long before the others follow suit. ]
...Maybe? Are you at the part where Shuuichi refuses to vote?
[Shuuichi's argument is working. Tsumugi is trying everything she can to get them all on track, but Keebo gets convinced enough to say he won't trust the outside world. Himiko says she won't let them use her life for some dumb show. Even Maki says she won't believe her feelings will fake... there's a glance at Kaito's portrait marked with an X.
"Our lives will have significance... and hopefully...my feelings will have significance, too."
Tsumugi is arguing harder and harder. It looks like Shuuichi's touched a real nerve. It's becoming clearer his plan might actually work... but Tsumugi continues to deny it. As far as she's concerned, there's no way to end the killing game.
"Like I told you, it's not going to stop. 'Cause that's what the world wants."
"Then we have to change it!" comes the counter, from Shuuchi.
"There's no way you can change it! Fiction could never change the real--"
There's an interruption, this time from Keebo. "You don't believe in the power of fiction?"
It just... gets a very confused sound from Tsumugi.]
[ He chuckles weakly. Of course Shuuichi would think that way. Of course he would vow to fix it.
Who knew that shy detective would be so influential? A bearer of hope? They've got her on the ropes. He almost wishes he had been around to see it but... this is almost as good.
He's not sure what to say, but he's curious now. He just has to let it play out. ]
[Keebo and Shuuichi are asserting they do have the power to change the outside world. That they won't give the world hope or despair. Tsumugi... just watches. Before finally asking.
"Are you serious?"
Then, it's Maki who gets the next jab.
"Are you getting flustered? Your costume changes are less frequent now."
It's very clear Tsumugi is flustered from what she blurts out next. She's apparently looking for any string to pull.
"Are you crazy!? If you do that, only I, the mastermind, will survive, y'know?"
Everyone asserts they don't care. Start the voting time. Both Tsumugi and Monokuma are outright looking for ways to delay and cajole them, but it's not working. They're united.
Tsumugi then starts interrogating Keebo about if the outside world is really going to accept the killing game ending forever. He replies he doesn't care anymore. But then... there's a flash of electricity.
The audience took a survey and decided Keebo's personality was a problem. He's now going to follow their orders as an automaton.
"The outside world will not except an ending without hope or despair."
It certainly puts Tsumugi in a smug mood again. The idea that killing games will continue, forever--!]
[ He can't believe what he's seeing. A suicide pact just to end the killing game? Just a few minutes ago he would have been furious. Absolutely livid. But seeing the game progress and how things had fallen into place bit by bit, even Kokichi isn't sure he would have disagreed with them had he been behind a lectern either.
They'd essentially beaten her. And that alone is satisfying enough.
But to actually watch them absolutely refuse to play, to FINALLY do what Kokichi had been trying to get them to do from the very start... to simply not play and end it all... Frustrated as he is, he's still immensely satisfied and proud.
Ah, but there's still the matter of the dumb robot. Of course that's what happens, and his frustration is palpable. Those idiots... When things were getting this good? Then, he can understand the frustration of a favorite series suddenly ending with no real satisfying resolution. ]
[Keebo, uses his last amount of self control to tell the group that it is the outside world that is the real enemy. Shuuichi takes the initiative again. He'll have to argue with them through Keebo:
"Keebo, let me hear the voices of the outside world! And let them hear me!"
Keebo somehow does so. And... what they have to say is not nice. At all.
"This isn't my danganronpa!"
"I'm a long-time fan!"
"I'm gonna be pissed if there isn't a happy ending!"
[The argument between Shuuichi and the 'world' through Keebo does end. The comments have gone silent, but did that indicate they'd gone away? Tsumugi was convinced they hadn't. That the killing game would continue.
"Let's give it everything we've got! Presenting... one last voting time!"
And there it is. The panel. Everyone is staring, but... it is a true prisoner's dilemma. After all that, knowing their lives are at stake, could they follow through? Especially when Tsumugi would win... but then, the time runs out.
Himiko is the first to announce she didn't vote. The rest confirm, but then Maki speculates... if Tsumugi votes for Keebo, and Keebo votes for Tsumugi, then that's just a tie. But, before any of them can explore that possibility, Tsumugi speaks up. She speaks in a tone most like the normal Tsumugi that Kokichi knows.
"Oh, there's no need to worry about that. I didn't vote either."
Maki is shocked to her toes, but Shuuichi isn't surprised at all.
"Just as I thought... you wanted hope to win."
Tsumugi simply shrugs it off.
"That's not it. We're friends, aren't we? There's no way I would abandon you guys."
Out of all of them, it's Himiko it infuriates the most.
"Friends!? You've got no right saying that now!"
It seems Tsumugi's change of heart ends there as she starts laughing like Monokuma.
"Puhuhu! I turned over a new leaf. I'm not lying. It's the truth."
But then it's a slip back to exposition. It doesn't really matter who Keebo voted for at this point. Keebo is the only voter and will survive. Therefore, hope wins.
"But Keebo said earlier that he'd sacrifice himself and take the punishment, right?"
Then Tsumugi's eyes take an utterly dead look to them.
"So we're going to punish him. He'll be participating in the next killing game."
Objections are shouted but Tsumugi just brushes them aside, before she settles back down.
"Well, since I didn't vote. I'll be killed with you guys..."
She stares out, with as much resolution as Shuuichi had been showing.
"But I'll accept my death."
"If you guys are willing to die to stop the killing game, I'll die to continue it."
"Even if it's just fiction, I gave my life to make it."
"I've given my life... to danganronpa!"
Everyone starts shuddering. Except Shuuichi who was... smiling. At long last, Tsumugi tells Monokuma to present the results.
The panel to announce the votes and who will be executed slowly lowers...
...And then there's a completely blank slate. With a message announcing: ATTENTION: NO VOTES]
[Memory-Tsumugi starts to have a breakdown. The tables turned, Himiko taunts her while Tsumugi desperately tries to appeal to the audience... but they're tuning out. One by one.
"Your words can't reach them anymore."
Shuuichi sums it up perfectly as the final displays clear, and then turn off entirely.
"No one wants you around anymore! No one wants to hear your sick twisted stories anymore!"
Tsumugi can only gawk, and mumble, and laugh nervously. Himiko suddenly tries to say maybe they don't need a punishment... but Tsumugi, Monokuma, and even Shuuichi disagree. Shuuichi especially that their sacrifices need meaning. Otherwise there's a chance people will want more killing games. Tsumugi admits she never expected an ending like this, so she doesn't have a punishment ready. She'll just leave it to Keebo.
"I worked hard to keep this going for fifty-three seasons and now it's all over..."
"Well, that's fine... If this is a world without killing games now..."
There's a moment where all of the life just utterly dies from her eyes.
"I don't want to be a part of it."
"I have no interest in a world without danganronpa."
Meanwhile, the others are working their ways to bravely face death.
GAME OVER: Tsumugi, Shuuichi, Himiko, and Maki will receive punishment. Time to destroy the Ultimate Academy.
There's an impressive explosion as Keebo shoots forward in a jet pack, blasting laser beams and destroying all of the academy.
Tsumugi can be seen... but, where did the other three go? They're not around at all.
"Junko" stands with Monokuma, waving and smiling as if giving a send off... before the cosplay fades away. Revealing Tsumugi with a quiet and very sad face.
--and then, without ceremony, a rock is blasted from above the archway they're standing under. A gigantic boulder crushes them both utterly. Only blood seeping from under the rock remains of Tsumugi Shirogane and Monokuma.
The memory flashback light... ends.
(oh and Tsumugi said something about cosplaycat criminals at some point but who cares.)]
[ It's no wonder that people had tuned out, disappointed. Had he been in the audience, he might have, too.
But no, he's stuck here.
With her.
He can't pretend it wasn't at least a little satisfying to see her die. After all, everyone surely got to see him die, right? It's only fair.
But what happened to the others? There's a pang of despair in his heart, knowing they might not have made it out. With no killing game, no one to monitor the rules or mete out punishment.. maybe they didn't even get punished at all?
No... he can't hold onto that hope. And even if he did, there's no way she could tell him. ]
So... that's it, huh? Everything that happened... the pain, the friends we lost...
It was all because of you and some bloodthirsty fuckers.
A lot has changed. I've been here for... a while. My experiences have changed me. Being inside killing games where I'm a participant and not the mastermind has changed me. Being around good people and Kaito before you arrived has changed me.
So... yes. Even if you don't believe it, I am sorry.
I don't care. You killed people! Even I didn't do that and yet I was the one vilified and attacked for trying to help you stupid idiots!
[ He pushes himself up onto his hands and knees, shaky, but still glaring at her. ]
I suffered.. I lost people I liked because of you. I DIED Because of you!
And you want me to just accept your apology like that?!
How fucking DARE you...
[ And without warning, he lunges for her, reaching for her neck. He's small, but spry, and evidently full of a need for vengeance. For all he knows, Shuuichi is dead. And it's all her fault. Rantaro was dead. And it was all her fault. Gonta was dead. And it was all her fault. Kokichi was dead.
[She told herself she'd just let it happen. If he attacked her, if he maimed her, if he outright killed her... so be it. She deserved it. She was taking responsibility.
But then it actually starts to happen, and it turns out, even under the monster's influence, she's still a human who can only have a very human reaction to danger.
Fight or flight. This time it's flight.]
Aaaaa!
[She jumps back, right out of the way, barely, but she has to fall down to do so.]
[ What this might look like to an outside observer, he doesn't care. In a place where people apparently kill each other all the time with no apparent consequence? Shouldn't he get a turn?
He snarls, his tails flicking wildly and his eyes flashing dangerously, though whether that's the monster inside or Kokichi himself is hard to determine.
Even with the miss, Kokichi doesn't seem deterred. There's a scramble to right himself before he lunges again, claws thirsty to sink into her neck. ]
[ He doesn't quite expect to be stopped by a chair, and can't help but snarl and swipe at her. His monster inside has found an outlet out and it wants blood. Especially her blood. ]
LIAR!! You lied from the SECOND You met everyone and you expect me to think you've changed NOW?! I'll pull your apology out through your veins you traitorous BITCH!
[ He barely even seems to register that she's let her doppelganger out, focused solely on attacking her and getting his revenge. ]
[ He watches her clamber to a table, and he grits his teeth, ears back, tails flicking wildly. Maybe it's that he hasn't had this form all that long, or perhaps he's still tired from his ordeal, but blue flames flicker around him and quickly fade out. ]
It might not, but I'll feel better!
[ He finally rises to his feet and rushes at her, table be damned. ]
I was given a second chance to kill you!! I missed it before but I WON'T fucking miss this time!!
You took everything good away from me... It's only right I should get to take something from you!
[ Sure, she looks gross and disgusting, but he knows it's still her... sort of. ]
You didn't suffer. You died but you didn't get what you earned. I tried so hard... SO HARD to end your fucking game and still you let it continue until it destroyed everyone from the inside out. You think that can be forgiven?
HA! And you idiots thought I was the monster in all of it. I ached in agony as poison took my life and I got fucking crushed into a paste because of you. I was so close... SO CLOSE to destroying your game... but no.... You fixed it like the cheater you are.
That...
THAT is what I hate most about you.
You lied and cheated your way through the whole thing. You were never honest from the start. I can't fucking stand liars.

[she doesn't want to provoke him, so she doesn't want to outright shove the table at him, but she's doing her best to keep light on her feet.]
We were given a second chance!

You didn't suffer. You died but you didn't get what you earned. I tried so hard... SO HARD to end your fucking game and still you let it continue until it destroyed everyone from the inside out. You think that can be forgiven?
HA! And you idiots thought I was the monster in all of it. I ached in agony as poison took my life and I got fucking crushed into a paste because of you. I was so close... SO CLOSE to destroying your game... but no.... You fixed it like the cheater you are.
That...
THAT is what I hate most about you.
You lied and cheated your way through the whole thing. You were never honest from the start. I can't fucking stand liars.
