MORE ON TAKI? YOU GOT IT!

• Taki Ayaka is a kindhearted but timid girl who prefers to mess with decorative plants than interact with other people. However, she's determined to overcome her shyness in order to make friends. After all, high school, especially at HPA, can be scary!

• She often will arrange intricate bouquets for those she finds likable, but often won't ever give them to them for fear of being taken as strange or overstepping.

• Taki dresses in a mix of the Sweet/Country sub-styles of Lolita fashion. It makes her feel like a Jane Austen character- books by this author are her weakness (her favorite being Emma).

• She has a pet rabbit named Beast.

• Taki's emotions often don't quite reach her face, so she makes sure that others know she isn't just staring into space.

It's been a good while, how've you been doing??

Aaaah hello!! Doing good outside of working in fast food 😭😭

AAAGHAGHAGA FIRST ASK, tysm!! 💐

Pre-Relationship

• so, taki is absolutely TERRIFIED of this dude. She knows he can snap her like a twig with zero effort.

• They've maybe spoken once- like, in the VERY beginning (think Prologue, in the scene in front of the safe door). And it was definitely all "Speak up!" "I'm sorry!" "WHAT?!" "SORRY!!"

• After some loud confusion, they eventually did learn each other's names. And being the little chicken she is, Taki avoids him like the plague, probably sticking close by Sakura and Aoi when possible.

• But, after seeing Mondo defend Chihiro, and the whole thing with how he reacted to Leon's reveal, she begins to understand that she's pretty much safe with him.

• So, Taki swallows her fear, and presents him with a flower arrangement (the only thing she really knows how to express herself with)!

• "i'm super sorry for-for kind of avoiding you!! Honestly, you can be really scary. ."

• Remember how Mondo can't stop yelling when he's flustered? This is one of those times.

• "UHH! UM! THANK YOU! NO-NO HARD FEELINGS!"

• After a few more days of mutually staying out of each other's ways, I think they'd become friends!

• Mondo keeps the flower arrangement 😊

Early Relationship

• Yaaaaay, they got together!

• Taki fell first, Mondo definitely fell harder

• But, Taki's a quiet person. So Mondo most definitely does a lot of the talking.

• He'd use nicknames like "babe" that basically induce cartoon nosebleeds on Taki's part 😭😭😭

• They'd split meals a lot 😊💌

• After a murder occurred, one would definitely stay out a little later in the dorms just to keep watch for each other for a bit before going to sleep!

Late Relationship

• Not only are they dating, they're best friends.

• These two will stay up and yap about anything and everything.

• Personal headcanon: Mondo somehow has ALL of the school's tea. He'll gossip to Taki about literally everything, not only because he loves her to death, but also because he knows she won't spill.

• They finish each other's thoughts in class trials.

• Bro is getting a bouquet every week. 😭💐

• Taki learned to sew so she can repair his giant coat if he ever needed it. When Mondo finds out, he's so emotionally moved and squeezes her super tight.

• "THAT'S TOO NICE OF YOU, TAKIIIII..." "I ca - I can't breathe too well right now -"

Killing Game

• If Taki were to kill anyone, it would most likely be Byakuya Bitchgami.

• She isn't from a wealthy family, and I feel like he would really rub it in her face. Plus, Mondo makes it clear that they're together, so his rich boy ass would probably have something to say about that too.

• "The poor florist and the food-stamp delinquent. How quaint."

• Taki's had her fair share of being picked on, but when it comes to him- the person who finally shoved her out of her comfort zone and showed her the care and appreciation she craved - that wouldn't be tolerated.

• She probably only meant to hurt him just a little bit. She isn't the toughest girl, but making bouquets strengthens your hands.. so, Byakuya was strangled.

• The guilt of murder- playing into Junko/Monokuma's hands- was killing her. So, before the trial could go on for very long, she broke down and confessed.

• "He wouldn't shut up! He just never shut his fucking mouth, did he?!"

• This would be the first time anyone had ever heard Taki swear. The vulgarity added to the shock. She'd definitely say all this through tears.

• "Ta-Taki.. c'mon. You- You ain't serious."

• Mondo's in shock and disbelief. Taki could never hurt anyone.

• "...i'm sorry, everyone."

• "I.. I guess I really am a murderer, huh..?"

• (THIS IS ALL PREGAME!) so picture this: taki minding her own business and VROOOOOOOOOOMMM.

• big scary biker gang appears. The leader is all shouty "what are you doing here?!" "get your ass off our turf!!"

• This scares the living shit out of Taki and she isn't caught dead in that area ever again.

• Fast forward one year to Hope's Peak.

• Entrance ceremony kicks off, everybody is filing in, and that's when she sees him. The six foot two giant who scared her shitless last year.

Mondo and Taki's first meeting, in canon killing-game THH.

After a SINGLE interaction Taki's all "I'm first on this guy's list aren't i."

While Mondo's just "👍 that one seems decent" and doesn't think about it again

In the meantime, Taki avoids Mondo like the plague for fear of being knocked into next week 💀
