Ugh. No rest for the weary it seems. Now...question is what game should I pick to play? I've been playing a huge variety late-...oh. Oh I know Very well what game I should play. Mehehehee...I do not own Danganronpa.

3rd P.O.V

*Cute little chime begins to play*

Usachi-usausa usachi. We love to play- you and me~

Usachi Usachi. Here we are 1-2-3.

Usa-us-us-usachi What game to play?

We shall see~

Hajime and Chiaki faze in, clapping as the little jingle and animated intro ends. "Awesome job Chihiro. It's adorable." Cutesy was the first thing that came to Hajime's mind when he heard it.

And with the animation-well he couldn't help but admire the love and incredible work his upper classmate did, and in such a short time to. It really was a nice surprise. "Thank you." The young programmer giggled behind the camera, a small rosy blush on her cheeks.

Chiaki was bouncing in her seat, internally squealing at the adorable intro. "I love it! But who is it that's singing? I know you chibified the voices but it still sounds like someone familiar singing."

The tall male student raises his eyebrow down at his pink haired classmate. "Chibified?" Chiaki simply nodded, as if she didn't just create a new term to use in her own personal dictionary before turning her attention back to Chihiro.

Who was still hiding behind the camera. "I got help from my classmate Sayaka and I think one of your classmates-Ibuki?" Hajime ahhed in understanding, it made sense to him now.

"Well if Ibuki and Sayaka are watching this-we want to say thank you so much for our new intro. It sounds great and we really appreciate it." Chiaki intertwined her fingers, feeling extra pumped today.

Neither her or Hajime were prepared for it, but they were glad they now had it for their youtube channel. "Today's going to be extra fun-especially since we're going to be playing one of your favorite games-right Hajime?"

He scratched the back of his neck, feeling a little sheepish. "Yeah. To be honest I wasn't sure if we should play it on the channel because of its dark and mature themes...but Chiaki has never heard of it and wanted to do a lets play." Chiaki was determined to show the world this precious gem of a game.

"What most people don't know is that Hajime can be really picky when it comes to stuff, so the fact that this is a favorite of his is more than enough for me. Let's fire it up." Hajime tugged his collar, not sure how this was going to go, but at this point it was too late for him to protest.

All he could do was sit down next to his gaming friend and continue talking to the camera while Chiaki suited up. Sweat began to fall from his forehead as Chiaki game a battle cry while placing on her headset.

"So this is a one player game called Ronpadangan and is sorta like a mystery visual novel series. Real deep story, good characters, with mini games and puzzles to solve. And well...i'm sorry in advanced Chiaki."

He places a hand on her shoulder, patting it while she tilts her head up at him in confusion. "Why? It sounds good to me." Hajime tries to smile but it's extremely forced. Chihiro herself joined the fray poking and trying to help Chiaki get answers out of the usually serious student.

"You'll...see soon enough. This is one game where I don't recommend spoilers-but it's a long game. Like really long. With a good couple of twists. Again...I'm sorry in advance." With the ominous warning Chiaki dives, in her trust controller ready for battle.

Waiting patiently as the game developer logos popped into the screen, before blinking at the intro. The first thing that caught her attention was the fast pace music beating against her eardrums. "Was that a bipedal cat? Why is it red and blue?"

She did her best, the proclaimed Ultimate gamer swept over the intro-trying the analyze every character and the glorious visuals that came into screen. But as soon as it came-it ended.

Ronpadangan~

Start

Already in two minutes Chiaki was hooked and was eager to play. With Chihiro right beside her, equally invested. "So how this gameplay is going to go...is Chiaki is going to handle the reins unless she get's stuck. I will give her hints or give her some info that won't be spoilers and go from there."

There were a few other things that he needed to mention-but right now he had to see if Chiaki was even going to make it past the prologue and tutorial segments. "My name is Nagei Matoko." Chiaki blinked, surprised. "Oh-there's voice acting." Chihiro clapped, smiling at the screen as realization took hold.

"He looks a lot like my friend Makoto!" Hajime snorts, amused. Up until now he never thought about the resemblance, but now that she pointed it out...it was uncanny.

Granted Hajime only saw Makoto a couple times around the school-but he could see it. If Makoto was a bit taller, slimmer and had dark maroon brown hair they would've been twins. "He looks like Makoto and Nagito had a baby and took their jackets." Hajime sputtered at Chiaki's comment. "What?!"

Both of his partners laugh at his reaction. It took him a moment to collect his voice, and another several to return and reality only to stare at Chiaki in a new light. "Ok you're spending WAY too much time with Sonia and Ibuki. Because that just came out of nowhere." He was glad he wasn't drinking anything.

Otherwise it'd be a royal mess to clean up. "Wait a second..." Chiaki drops the controller, narrowing her eyes. The newly established youtuber stared at her male friend, making his uncomfortable.

"What?" She stayed that way, leaving her game temporarily frozen. The programmer looked between the two friends before glancing at the screen, reading the text out loud to herself.

"Here at Crowned Faith's University only the best of the best-the Ultimates in their field are allowed here. Should they graduate they're set for life. How could I pass up this opportunity?"

Chiaki found her interest rise as she continued reading, and it was so easy for her to see the parallels...and the extreme changes added. "So is this inspired by Hopes Peak?" Sure Hope's Peak was a strict private school-but there was no way it was anywhere near this extreme. At least she thought so.

A grin formed on her friend's face, he had been hoping Chiaki caught on. To anyone who didn't attend HPA or knew about it's crazy rules would've just thought it was a purely fiction based story by a sadist.

"Ironically the creator of this game was a student who was part of Hopes Peak tech division. Apparently he started making it after having a random nightmare about the school. He even took the mascots and some of his classmates as inspiration-his friends even helped with making it."

It was pretty cool tidbit Hajime found out when he discovered it a couple years ago. So gripped with the story and developed characters he went binge researching and was hooked. Even more funny was the fact that Hajime's crazy obsession started by pure luck.

Just one day he was randomly checking out one of the youtubers he had recently subscribed to just to watch the playthrough before getting it as a Christmas gift from one of his old middle school classmates.

There were some characters in this game that Hajime could relate to...emotionally speaking, and as insane as the story was there were moments that just couldn't be understood being told. He had to give the creator credit for making such a crazy story with such eyepopping visuals.

"I'm curious to see how you're gonna do Chiaki...but there is one thing you and everyone who dares to play/watch this game should learn." Both girls blinked as his expression turned serious.

Granted Hajime was always serious, but his eyes hardened as he stared at the screen. "What is it?" He's silent for a moment, watching Chiaki go through the beginners tutorial, waiting till she starts introductions with the cast for the game before taking a deep breath.

"Whatever you do...do not-and I repeat DO NOT get attached to ANY of the characters."

To be continued

Author Notes: So this idea had been buzzing for awhile especially when I myself am a danganronpa trash fan who started playing for a friend who was trying to get into the series. I felt this was as good a time as any to get it worked on.

So i'll probably be uploading this just like any youtuber, where i'll do parts of this and then other chapters involving games. And THEN adding characters...I know Sen already has one that just HAS to join the group(whether they like it or not)

But thats it for now. If you guys like this series please feel free to fav/follow/review as not only do I love to see people enjoying the story as much as I do-but it also becomes good inspiration and really make this story come to life. Tchao for now folks~
