Who: Makoto Naegi and OPEN.
When: 12/24 & 12/25 icly.
Where: Various places.
What: Naegi tries to make sense of things. Or at least fumbles around for a few days trying to make the best of things...same difference!!
Rating/Warning: He's fairly mild but will probably think about murder game trauma being that's a thing that just happened. Probably Dangan Ronpa spoilers but just lemme know if you need me to avoid those (though I'd caution you away from any castmate threads if they happen in that case).
a; grocery shopping (12/24)
b; shopping for something else (12/25)

a; grocery shopping (12/24)
[ This is not Naegi Makoto's lucky day. He's a fairly terrible ViViD player, as he quickly finds out - game over, because he can't bring himself to attack someone really, and it takes him a while to actually get through things. After that is the power point that seems like it honestly could be an extension of the Mutual Killing game, except for the part where no one is insisting he try to kill anyone (except maybe aliens?) so that's...that's an improvement, but it still doesn't feel very lucky at all. Especially given that the powerpoint covers the end of his world - which, well, didn't he just do this...
...But this is even more literal than the last time, so. Okay. That's a thing. Following that, he can't locate anyone he knows. He tries their names on the CereVice, tries to ask around about the classmates he's misplaced, but there's no real luck there (ironic, given his talent) and while Naegi doesn't believe they're dead or lost to him forever, he does have to admit that at least immediately he might have to focus on something else.
Like picking an apartment, mostly at random (though nothing fancy, in the same way he'd picked a job). And acknowledging that he was hungry, and had to eat. Since he'd been supplied with credits enough for that (though he's going to be frugal, not knowing how long he's there), Naegi heads out to pick up some food since it seems to be left to him to do it...which is actually a nice change of pace. He looks more than a little lost and weirded out even as he locates a store, though. It's...strange. Being outside of Hope's Peak. Nice, except for the whole world-ending and missing classmates thing, but really strange. When was the last time he saw the real sky...? Or a sky that looked as real as this one?
A while, for sure. But Naegi's fascination with the sky is not really useful at this juncture, because he apparently is not skilled enough to walk while staring up and not become a catastrophe. Because that would be just his luck. It's not so much that he trips - although he seems to - but that one of the bags he's carrying breaks - why this - and several bottles of cherry-vanilla cola begin rolling free. Along with several more ordinary and healthy-ish groceries. Sorry if something rolls into you. Or if the short boy chasing after his scattering things gets in your way and trips and/or hinders you, he doesn't intend to do that... ]
A-ah, wait! [ Because talking to the groceries that roll away from him will stop them, clearly.
Honestly, he might also just run into people while looking up and/or around, in which case he'll always immediately stop and begin apologizing. ] I'm sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going... [ And who knows, maybe his bags break. AGAIN. Sorry if he drops a can of soup on your foot or something. Or he just looks apologetic and also lost, how the hell does he get back to his apartment again why this. ]
b; shopping for something else (12/25)
[ Having at least succeeded in getting groceries into his apartment (whatever mishaps happened, at leas the was determined to do that) Naegi ventures out again the next day in the morning, clutching a packet. He'll eventually hit up shops, and can be found taking things out of the packet - specifically, he's trying to find photo frames that will fit a variety of dumb pictures from the manilla envelope he'd been carrying around. He's apparently brought them along to double-check for size, so it's possible to catch a glimpse of them as he frowns and tries to find things that work.c; bike shop (12/25)
...Simple black frames should be all right, right...? But single frames, or one of those photoboard...things? ]
Ah...pardon me! Do you think a collage would look nicer in an apartment...? Or single frames...? I've never really been in charge of decorating anything. [ His parents had done that...well, and he'd never really done much out of the ordinary with his own room. Hadn't had many photographs, either. ]
[ Well, he can't count on those credits to last forever. Even if Naegi hasn't bothered to buy anything other than groceries and photo frames (he...bought a few clothes, but nothing major and mostly jeans and tees, he's very simple in terms of fashion), he doesn't want to do nothing and he should probably at least try to get involved in whatever all this is so he'll better be able to help his friends. Whenever he finally finds them again.
So he's sitting behind the counter of the shop, his nametag pinned to his shirt as he flips through the employee manual, looking more than a little nervous. Those nerves won't abate if someone comes in (what if they ask him something hard) but he'll try to smile all the same. Why are you buying a bike on Christmas? Why is Naegi bothering to do something like go in to work on Christmas? Who knows. ]
Er, welcome! Can I help you with anything?

[ If you have your own scenario in mind, feel free to throw it at me and I'll roll with it. ]
oops replied to the wrong place
[Oh okay. We're back to that loud, dramatic laugh of his. Apparently that was a good answer?]
To be able to surprise the likes of me, I am truly impressed by your prowess! Surely this companion of yours comes from impressive lineage to be able to catch me so off guard! Very well! With power like that, I am certain you will be able to to handle the knowledge of who I am!
[It's...such a dramatic pose for an introduction. Why does he have to do that? Maybe he really is from some anime.]
I am Tanaka Gundam, Supreme Overlord of Ice! I am truly mankind's greatest fear, ally to all adversity! Remember the name well, human, as it will surely haunt your very nightmares!
no subject
He...must really like dogs. ]
It's...nice to meet you, Tanaka-san. [ He thinks this is nice? Maybe???? They're...getting along? Is this what getting along looks like. ] You...must really like dogs, then?
[ And posing...but I don't think I'm supposed to mention that part. Or should I be commenting on it...? It's probably best not to, though... ]
no subject
I am fond of all the world's creatures...There is not an animal I do not know, do not like and cannot understand. [Though there are ones he won't associate with.] But this should be no surprise...you are speaking to the Super High School Level Animal Breeder, after all! It is within the domain of animals that the great Tanaka Empire resides!
While the children of Cerberus are indeed a superior beast among beasts, granting you an impressive boon of power, it is not the creature I have given my very soul to, if that is what you mean.
[Though he's raised them before, his loyalty lies in much smaller animals.]
no subject
Then you, too... [ Naegi points to himself with his free hand - which requires a bit of juggling of his groceries, but. ] I'm "Super High School Level Luck"...
[ This is...weird. So weird. ]
So, we're both from...the same world, right?
no subject
Squint.]
Luck, you say...
[HE'S HAD BAD EXPERIENCES WITH THE LIKES OF YOU. But he isn't going to press that matter...not yet. Naegi seems plenty sane so far...]
If you are indeed carrying such a title, it can only be because you attend Hope's Peak Academy, correct? It must not be from our class, however...I do not recognize you in the slightest.
[Well. For all he knows, anyway. Who knows, maybe he knew this little shrimp but haha school memories...]
no subject
Er, I'm from the 78th class. You must my senior, then... [ Since it's...utterly impossible to be his junior. Although he guesses the other way around should also be impossible??? But aliens destroyed their planet apparently so he is just. Going to admit that maybe logic has no place here for now...
...Kirigiri would be a lot better at this than he is. :c ]
I also don't recognize you...but that's not too surprising. [ He...knows he forgot a lot of shit, so uh. ]
no subject
Correct. [Though he won't elaborate on exactly how much of his senior he is.]
Whether or not you recognize me, however, does not matter. [Mostly because that delves into the possibility of also missing school memories, and that is getting a little too close to murder games. Naegi unfortunately does not have enough hope shards with Gundam to talk about that to him yet. Even if he is from the same school.]
It would not change the destiny of our meeting now. The will of causality is not easily swayed.
no subject
Eh... [ He actually has more questions than that, but...even if he were to bring them up, the chances of him understanding the answers were...pretty low. If this guy would actually answer the questions and not go off on a tangent.
...For now, it's just enough to know that there's someone else around. Even if it's...Tanaka Gundam.
...Maybe someone I actually know will be "rescued" soon... ]
...So what familiar have you given your soul to?
no subject
Let him tell you about this nurse he knows sometime.
But yes, it'd probably be a good idea to find a Tanaka to English dictionary somewhere before trying to ask him any important questions. Parsing what he says is all fine and dandy but some things are important and you'll probably want to fully understand them...]
Ah, you are curious to see them, are you? The fearsome forms of my Four Dark Devas of Destruction? With your Magic Essence level, they may not even destroy you upon sight...
[He does not even need to call them by name, the hamsters easily recognizing a chance to show off and quickly appearing from his scarf to occupy his shoulders (or nap snugly within the crook of one of his crossed arms.)]
Feast your eyes upon these heavenly kings and know the dangers they pose to you, human, for they are truly the most powerful beings in this universe!
[And that is all pride you hear in his voice.]
no subject
They're cute! [ wait fuck ] Er, they look really strong. Do they have names?
[ But no they're...pretty cute and you know what he's. Just going to accept that Gundam is going to keep being a shining star, here. ]
