#drv3 chapter 5

Die as the villain you are

this took me longer than it should

second scrapped angle v

A body has been discovered!

My piece for @oumotazine2! I was really honored to be a part of this project even if life... got in the way multiple times, and I'm a little late to the party posting my piece finished haha.

I've always been curious about what would have happened if these two never got the chance to finish carrying out their plan. They still would have had a locked room mystery where no one could tell who died first, and since the theme of the zine was canon divergence? I thought why not explore that idea!

Now the folks who bought the zine (thank you all so much btw!) might notice that your printed/digital copy looks a little different from this.

Truth be told I missed out a lot of details I wanted to add to the finished version and just couldn't make work during the production period, life did get in the way at the time but I didn't want that to stop me from making it perfect post haste.

so I hope you all enjoy the true finished version of this piece!

FINALLY! A project that took almost exactly 11 months of my life is done!

Have the biggest project I've ever taken on by far<3

EDIT: My thoughts and analyses and pointings out of what's interesting here<3

I think it’s kind of interesting that Shuichi imagined these moments happening between Kaito and Kokichi despite having no basis or proof that they'd actually happened.  He just assumes that Kokichi laid a comforting hand on Kaito’s shoulder; after they were poisoned, he just assumes that Kaito supported Kokichi when the poison had taken its toll on his body.
