    Summary

    “They’d be here too, to greet you, but we didn’t want to overwhelm you with a big group.” Kaede explains softly. “Actually, we’ve been sending in one person at a time to be there when people woke up, because that feels more manageable, but- well, all three of us wanted to be here when you got up. It wouldn’t have been fair if any of us had been absent.”

    “Oh yeah?” Kokichi raises an eyebrow.

    “I know when I woke up,” Kaede looks over at Rantaro, a meaningful look on her face. (Rantaro’s smile diminishes, turns into something more sympathetic.) “I broke down because I failed.”

    ---

    Kokichi dies.

    (Mostly, though, he wakes up from the simulation, deals with the knowledge that his plan failed, and talks to everyone else too.)

    Summary

    Sheesh, as I was saying!” Monokuma flails his arms. “Momota-kun and Shirogane-san seem to have come down with an oldie but a goodie—the despair disease!”

    Monokuma’s announcement is regarded with empty stares from the whole group, aside from Tsumugi, who pushes on Gonta’s glasses and lets out a giggle, mumbling something about how he must be honoured to get to hold her. Gonta agrees thoughtlessly, nodding his head a little, but his gaze is still solely on the robot bear.

    The silence is, as it so often is, broken by Kokichi. “Ooh, the despair disease!” He bounces forward with starry eyes, a broad smile on his face. “How exciting! Hey, Monokuma, do you wanna explain what that is to these peons, or should I?”

    “You really know how to take the drama outta an announcement,” Monokuma grumbles.

    ---

    After the second trial, Monokuma re-introduces a familiar motive for the third chapter: The Despair Disease.

    Naturally, the consequences from this are immediate, and great.

    Summary

    It isn't that strange that Apollo's soulmark would be in English; after all, he plans to go back some day. Except by the time he grows up, he is hearing the important word almost every day.

    It isn't until Klavier is nine that he realizes his soulmark is in Khura'inese. This is a bit troublesome, especially when he finds himself falling for Apollo Justice, who probably can't speak a word of the language.

    And yet somehow, things tend to work out in the end.

    Summary

    Shu had read The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. An assignment one summer for his English tutor, picked off a list of classics just because he’d known it was a horror story.

    At the time, fourteen and fitful, at the mercy of an unmanageable mind… He'd found it compelling. He couldn’t help but see himself in the doctor’s desperation for self-control.

    He hadn’t liked the ending.

    The first few months: notes on an identity crisis.
