Let's all work together and study hard!

[ardent]

Hey there, Route!

My name is Dal, I'm a former player here who had to drop at the beginning of spring due to RL complications; after some time away to recharge and get things sorted, I'm back, hopefully to stay this time!

Character-wise, I'm bringing in Kiyotaka Ishimaru from Dangan Ronpa - a video game which is, plot-wise, what happens when Battle Royale meets Ace Attorney in a dark alley and beats the crap out of it, and then Zero Escape shows up and mugs both of them. It plays heavily off of stereotypes and there's a lot of black comedy involved; I would definitely suggest checking out the Let's Play of it sometime, it's fantastic.

Ishimaru here is a model student, former founder and leader of the disciplinary committee at his old school, and Super High-School Level Hall Monitor (no really that is his canon title and he takes it seriously tyvm). He's very into justice, rules, order, following protocol, and extolling the merits of hard work; when he's not getting his justice on, he's dedicated himself to studying, because he's a student and students should be professionals at studying.

TL;DR - LOADS OF FUN AT PARTIES.

However, he's very intense and passionate about life, he's actually not a bad leader when it comes to his peers, and he's actually ridiculously caring deep down; it's just buried under a heaping amount of social failure. He's also sort of a tremendous dork who likes to inform people of important facts (lettuces are, in fact, green), come up with creative ways to solve problems (raise your hand if you're a murderer, we promise we won't look!), he's both sensitive as hell and prone to manly tears and this results in him being the grossest crybaby you ever will meet (no really when he cries it is ugly), and he...literally says "Forget Beam" at people, because either he's very stupid when he's flustered or his sense of humor is ridiculously offbeat like that. He's basically the world's worst Sailor Senshi, guys.

He's taken from about a third of the way through Chapter 2, the night after their motives have been passed out; he's assigned to be the worst member of Team Rocket ever because wow Ishimaru what is your luck even, and he's starting with a Darumaka (and a Magikarp that he intends to shout into excellence).

Hope to see you around, and I look forward to playing with everyone! (Again!)

Welcome back, Dal! Glad to see you around here again =)

There's literally nothing I don't love about this introduction.

I don't think I've ever met you before, but welcome back to Route! Looking forward to playing with Ishimaru.

Welcome back as well, Dal! This time, I'll be sure to CR you up! :D

[superordinary]

no don't shout at the magikarp you will regret it when it evolves

I mean hi and welcome back to the game! I play Protag McGeneric here and I'm really glad you decided to app. c:

[failures]

So much excitement aaaaa--omg you made him part of Team Rocket this is going to be glorious.

Welcome back, Dal! I can't wait to thread with you again. Also that really is the best way to describe Dangan Ronpa. No wonder why I love it so much, lol.

Hi! I'm Lucy, and I have two! The first is Mitsukuni Haninozuka ("Honey-senpai") from Ouran, and the second is Aradia Megido from Homestuck. Aradia does have an important note: like everyone in her canon she types in a very specific way when using the text function, which you can view and opt out of here!

I AM BAD WITH NAMES AND CAN'T RECALL IF YOU KNEW ANY OF THIS SO...

(Sorry)

Hi Dal! I'm Karen, and this is Yusuke Urameshi from Yu Yu Hakusho. I seem to recall seeing your drop post a while back, so I think technically we were in the game at the same time before now, but I don't think we ever actually got to thread together or anything. Perhaps this time it will be different! I'm canon-blind to Dangan Ronpa, but Ishimaru seems really fun, and your (hilarious) description of the game definitely provides incentive for me to check it out sometime. Battle Royale jumping Ace Attorney in a dark alleyway? MOST INTRIGUING.

Anyway, welcome back, and I hope to play with you sometime!!

Hey and welcome back! I'm Lynn and I play this Android 17 from Dbz along with Perona from One Piece (rocket) and Pinkie Pie from MLP.

....And Perona says that's the most ugliest fish ever!

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

WELCOME BACK!

I've only recently started reading Dangan Ronpa (Just started chapter 2 earlier in fact), but oh my god Ishimaru in Team Rocket sounds like it'll be amazing.

[begetsvengeance]

Nice to see you back, Dal! I've already talked with you before, but either way I am STILL EXCITED for Ishimaru, especially now that he's got his aniki with him...in Team Rocket.

...yeah this totally won't end badly.

[usedwrench]

laaaaaaaaaate, but I was about to crash last night

Welcome back Dal~!♥ I'm so glad to see you here again.

rofl, why does this "model student + ridiculously caring deep down, it's just buried under a heaping amount of social failure" remind me of someone... oh, I don't know, maybe because Utau fits that description too. XD

Welcome back to Route, Dal!
