Our muses to be caught in one of these situational tropes! (These work well for ships, but could be used for all kinds of characters.

“The fuck ya just called me ya bastard!?”

Of all things, of all situations; The one situation where Souda could have proved that he wasn’t an idiot…Seemed to instead prove how much of an idiot he truly was. Unlike Souda Fuyuhiko first attempted to use the help or assist button within the elevator but alas that didn’t seem to be working…Nor did pressing a bunch of random numbers.

Fuyuhiko glanced upwards with a scowl, it would get them out of the elevator at least but wouldn’t that be dangerous? All Fuyuhiko knew was that he definitely couldn’t get out by himself; He could admit that much. 

Do he dare ask and risk the humiliation? He was already being insulted as it was. Glancing around the elevator once more, there truly wasn’t any other way? Looking up to the panels above, as if trying to assess the risks if they get climb up top. 

(For someone who could dish it out nonstop, he wasn’t really able to take it..)

“Jeez, man...” He spoke through a cracking, wavering tone. Fuyuhiko was normally one for harsh remarks and comments, though it never failed to take Souda off guard, even when it was expected and/or justified. “No need to be so hostile...” 

The Mechanic reached down, positioning himself to the smaller of the two could place a foot in his clasped hands. From there, he could make it up to Souda’s shoulders. Luckily, the mobster wasn’t much of a heavy weight, so boosting him wasn’t that difficult. Although the pressure on his shoulders was a little uncomfortable, and his balanced wavered from it slightly as his clasped onto Fuyuhiko’s calves in order to maintain his stability as much as possible. 

@automatonn​ and I built this up in private, and they have expressed interest in using it here as well. So, with that note, some personal headcanons and ‘verse building from the both of us. We have gone through all of the Despairs and built headcanons for them, but as these are RP blogs we will only cover our own muses.

Anyone who wishes to work off of this is more than welcome, if it catched your fancy.

Future Foundation and Folly

After the resurrection of the Despairs at the hands of Hinata Hajime, their services were offered as a way to atone for the destruction they had wrought. One Naegi Makoto had taken them up on this offer, and so under codenames and strict oversight by Handlers the former Despairs became assets.

Known by the codename of ‘Attack Dog,’ Gundham is called in for missions that require stealth and espionage.

His sway over animals has allowed him to turn entire packs of dogs against their owners; what was once a tool of Despair is now a way of subduing and limiting casualties.

His job is both to scout and, when possible, subdue. 

When a route is secured, Gundham is able to go in alone to help corral and capture those lost to despair that the NWP might try to heal them.

The Devas are invaluable assets, though he is careful with his use of them - as well as all his other animal companions.

Gundham is called out often, and thus spends a lot of time off Jabberwock.

If Hajime ordered him to stand his ground and fight until he died, he absolutely would. His loyalty to Hinata Hajime is absolute, as is his trust in the man.

‘Attack Dog’ was originally a mocking nickname by his Handlers, as he would come to Hajime’s beck and call.

Known by the codename of ‘Automaton,’ Kazuichi is called in only for a last resort - scorched earth missions. A city is overrun with Monokuma bots? Call in the Automaton.

He is not a master of subterfuge or stealth; his signature arrival comes with a blast, and anything in his path is torn asunder. This includes all wireless communications that do not have specialized satellite uplinks.

Because of this Kazuichi spends a lot of his time on Jabberwock, tinkering with things.

He has built a lot of medical equipment for the Future Foundation, making things compact and easy to carry with Mikan’s help.

Near anything he creates will have a hidden gun in it.

Kazuichi has built a special all-terrain vehicle, known colloquially as The BLA…. The Barely Legal Automobile. She will have her own post in the future. 

“Wh- Me?” 

Makoto reached up to rub the back of his neck, a doubtful look on his face. 

“I’m no good at all that.. Talkin’ stuff.” The Mechanic let his arms fall back by his side, the obvious excitement in his body language being almost concerning. It wasn’t very often that he got to be used to Future Foundation missions, but every single time he was, there was some rather intricate “pyrotechnics”. His talent could prove to be a very useful one, but the way that he implemented it in missions was questionable.. At best. 

His grin softened, though didn’t fall away completely. “Heard from Hajime that once we get into the site being guarded there’s a head-honcho-type guy! Gonna need some Ultimate Hope pizzazz and flare, ya feel me?”

Tanaka Gundham, the Forbidden One. Overlord of Ice, the unholy offspring of an angel and a devil, a union that should never have been - for all his short life, he has conquered and crosses voids like which the universe has barely ever seen. He is unshakable, unmovable in spirit and body.

…And now, he has risen from the dead. 

His fists clenched and unclenched at his sides, mind trying to wrap around the sheer impossibility of such a feat. It was…unnatural. Against the laws of the world, the order by which the planet spun and the sun rose, the laws of death and new life.

He had risen from the dead.

It was all by the hand of one Hinata Hajime, a fact that did not surprise him in the least. His virtual avatar had chosen to keep all the memories, despair and the killing game both, and for that he was thankful. The knowledge clawed at his insides like a feral beast; penance, for all that he had done.

If anyone could twist fate and the laws of the universe, it was Hajime. And Gundham would lay his life down at Hinata’s feet, if he were asked.

A chattering caught his attention from within his scarf, one of his Devas descendants coming up to nibble his ear and pull him from the thoughts that threatened to drown him. He flashed a calm smile and nuzzled the hamster, eyes casting out to the waves of the beach he stood on, truly seeing them once more.

In, out. In, out. Like a pulsing heartbeat the waves slid along the shore, their rhythmic sound soothing the confusion and agony in his heart.

He had risen from the dead - but was he truly worthy of such a miracle…?

San-D stood to attention, chirping loudly to alert her Master to an intruder. Gundham cast a glance to the side and momentarily froze as the familiar palette of pink and yellow stood out before him-

On his knees, before the one he desired. Rejection that stung as much as the boot connecting to his face, euphoric in ways that only Despair could provide. More, more, let me know how hated I am.

The memory was shoved to the side, Gundham’s face carefully curated to neutral as he faced the Ultimate Mechanic. There was no way of knowing what Souda remembered - after a brief tearful reunion, Hajime had ushered the other survivors out to further monitor Gundham and ensure he got space.

…In a way, he knew he would be found here. And perhaps the soft edge to his eyes betrayed that, only a little bit.

Kazuichi had maintained distance for a few short days, though to him it felt like eternity three times over. Consistently he’d been checking in with Hajime, desperate to find out any new information regarding Tanaka. Memories from both the simulation and the flickering remnants of the Despair left behind had been tantalizing - just how badly had he hurt this poor man? Trusting his own memory wasn’t worth it for now, as pieces of the puzzle were still recreating themselves. 

Maybe forgetting really was for the best. 

“...Hey,” He responded with a gentle tone, averting his gaze for a few moments to examine the waves. The way they rolled was so rhythmic and soothing, though it was nothing compared to the way Gundham’s voice resonated in his mind. The mechanic took in a deep breath, letting it leave his lungs in a sigh; his shoulders fell a bit more slack as he did so, though it was obvious that he was anxious. 

“Sorry about.. uh - well, you know.” He motioned with his hand as though he was talking about something in the past. The sudden display of affection that he placed upon Tanaka as soon as he’d awoken from the pod. It was a knee-jerk reaction that sent Souda hurling himself forward and holding his former classmate as tight as he could. The closeness was something he’d craved more than words would always fail to describe - Gundham’s arms around him was safety. 

No... No, it was more than that. It was home. 

Pensively, the ultimate allowed his lips to pull into a smile, though it was a bit melancholic. He peered back up at the Breeder, noticing just how intently the other’s gaze was locked on him. Hajime had told them, after all, to keep watch for any signs of Gundham’s mental state deteriorating, and if things got bad enough, they would have to- 

Kazuichi stopped himself. Instead, he forced his mind to change track to something a bit more hopeful. Despair had its hold on them for long enough.

DUAL PROMO for a new Kazuichi Souda and Gundham Tanaka. We are not exclusives, just starting out together!

I call this their ‘they’ve been married for 5 years and are thriving’ looks

they both work from home. gundam breeds animals (duh) but also travels occasionally to do conservation work for endangered species. souda...has fun and tinkers in the garage and builds stuff all day.

I think souda often gets super into building something and forgets to eat so gundam has to bring him cute little sandwiches and water or something and force him to take a break so he doesn’t like...die 😐
