[Meta] Considering the Effect of Akamatsu's Actions on Ouma

Man, you ever think about how Ouma was probably super betrayed by Akamatsu’s actions in V3? You ever think about how, at least in canon, he probably had a lot of resentment towards her, not even just because she murdered someone, but on the grander scale of the fact she literally made the single worst mistake any leader possibly could?

That is, assuming you are unequivocally morally just because you want what’s best for everyone and thus know better than everybody else in the room.

You ever think about how that one thing was what led her to the conclusion that she could totally do whatever she wanted if she felt it would be in the group’s best interest, even if she KNEW they wouldn’t like it, evidenced by the fact she felt the need to sneak around behind Saihara’s back? You ever think about how she absolutely wasn’t prepared for the consequences of those actions when she inevitably was proven that she WAS fallible?

You ever think about how Ouma, with his own experiences in leadership, is intimately familiar with how DANGEROUS those types of leaders are? You ever think about how he put his trust in her to take a back seat and let her lead the group anyway? And then it blew up in both their faces.

You ever think about how even after the fact, he couldn’t bring himself to blame her for her inexperience? You ever think about he on record, in canon, blamed himself for being useless instead? You ever think about how being the true leader in the room just by Talent and knowing how dangerous it is for a leader to ignore their capacity for error and making bad decisions, he went through the entire rest of the killing game acutely aware of his responsibility for every single bad thing that happened from then on? You ever think about how Akamatsu and her mistake probably haunted him?

I think about it a lot.

Like, do you ever wonder how fucked up it was that Ouma ended up pushed into a role within the group where he had no choice but to do what Akamatsu did and make big mistakes for the good of the group? Because over the course of the game they kept writing him off and by the time things were getting really bad they wouldn’t have listened to him so he was forced to pull an Akamatsu about it?

You ever think about how he sets out to avoid Akamatsu’s mistake in chapter 2, by proposing the Motive Video Watch Party so that everyone was privy to the same information and no one would slip through the cracks again like Akamatsu did? You ever think about how it was Saihara, who was radicalized by Akamatsu’s tragedy in the opposite direction because he doesn’t have Ouma’s expertise of leadership and transparency, who thought that was a bad idea and shut Ouma out of this plan?

You ever think about how Ouma makes a point to be involved in as much as possible so that he can keep tabs on things (the Motive View Party, the seance, helping Miu set up the computer), but no one actually listens to his proposals so he ends up having to make decisions on his own the way Akamatsu did? You ever think about how this blockage in communication ended up putting Ouma in a corner where he couldn’t be upfront with anyone but a select few people?

You ever think about how this ultimately results in his hand being forced to stoop to Akamatsu’s level and scheme behind everyone’s backs, resulting in the deaths of not one but two more people?

You ever think that since he’s been acutely aware of the responsibility of a leader to shoulder the blame for bad things happening, that just as he blamed himself and his own inaction for Akamatsu’s mistake, he was very much of the idea that this whole outcome was entirely his own fault, due to his own failings as a leader, because if he had just been good enough, none of this would have happened?

You ever wonder if he thinks he’s worse than Akamatsu because of it?

Food for thought.

SGA/SG1: Grow Old Without You by respoftw

Fandom: Stargate Atlantis/Stargate SG1
Characters/Pairings: John Sheppard/Rodney McKay, Teyla Emmagan, Ronon Dex, Elizabeth Weir, Radek Zelenka, Carson Beckett, Jack O'Neill, Daniel Jackson, San Carter, Teal'c, Caroline Lam, Hank Landry
Rating: Teen
Length: 20,335
Content Notes: Disability due to aging, anger, grief and loss.
Creator Links: respoftw on AO3
Themes: Angst with a happy ending, Established relationship, Hurt/comfort, AU: canon divergence

Summary: A canon divergent AU after 'Common Ground'
“We just don’t have the resources or the facilities to care for him here. I wish that circumstances were different, you have no idea how much I wish that, but the fact remains. My medical recommendation is for us to send him back to Earth.”

Rodney refuses to leave John behind.

Reccer's Notes: In this story, John isn't given back his years after they were taken from him in Common Ground by Todd the Wraith, so he's very old and frail. Elizabeth and the Atlantis expedition are shocked when, after they decide to send John back to Earth for care and treatment (and to die), Rodney resigns and goes with him. However, the first obstacle to that is of course John, who half kills himself angrily rejecting Rodney and telling him he doesn't want him to come. The story is about the struggle they both face with John so frail, scared and ashamed, and Rodney, trying to cope while grieving and exhausted - and not too physically well himself. SG1 rally around to help, as do Teyla and Ronon back in Pegasus, and, well, this is the angst with a happy ending tag, after all. An at-times gruelling, but sometimes funny and overall heartwarming read, with great characterisation.

[Meta] Kokichi Ouma and Trust

You ever think about how Ouma actually did want to trust everyone so damn badly? I do.

It’s in the passive back seat he took in Chapter One, where he allowed Akamatsu to take the wheel and only stepped in when things got really bad and they needed to pivot (see: The Death Road of Despair).

It’s in the way he easily gave in to the peer pressure of everyone else wanting to use the Flashback Lights when he himself was against it.

It’s in the fact that rather than agree with everyone that the Motive Videos shouldn’t be watched, rather than try to steal them all to hoard and keep away from everyone or outright destroy them so no one could watch them, he suggested watching them all together as a group, so they could all hold each other accountable.

And even as that trust was slowly and methodically broken down by the killing game, even as he continues to lie and starts to act like he doesn’t trust anyone and nobody should trust him either, he still wants to trust them so, so bad.

It’s in the fact that even though he outed Harukawa for her lie, and made jabs at her expense, he passively allowed Momota to handle the situation without much of a fight and even walked back on his claim that he agreed with everyone who wanted to keep her away, and didn’t question her presence in the group again after that, almost as if her reintegration into the group and everyone reestablishing trust with her was his goal from the start.

It’s in the concern he had over the dangers of cult mentality and Yonaga’s affect on the members of the student council.

It’s in his open admission to how he was injured when he tripped on the loose floorboard during the investigation, rather than insisting the blood was fake and that the entire thing was a lie.

It’s in the way he was the first to notice and properly call out Yumeno’s aversion to confronting and processing her emotions over Yonaga and Chabashira’s death, something even Chabashira herself failed to do when she was alive.

It’s all over his entire relationship with Iruma, commissioning his tools from her and including her in his plans up until she falls to the pressure of the killing game herself.

It’s in his relationship with Gokuhara up until the very end, the one remaining person who trusted him in return, and his absolute devastation over losing him.

It’s in the loss of Gokuhara being the straw that broke the camel’s back, dropping him entirely into a pit of despair and paranoia and resolution to keep everyone as far away from him as he possibly can.

And even then…

It’s in the fact when he enacts the Mastermind plan, he takes Momota with him, arguably the one who’s openly disagreed with him the most out of anyone.

It’s in the way his final, last-ditch plan invaluably relied on his trust in others. Not just Momota, who had the plausible deniability of blackmail, but Saihara, too, to see through everything and figure out what Ouma was trying to do before it was too late.

He wanted to trust everyone. He wanted to trust and befriend everyone so, so, so badly.

But the killing game punished him every time he tried.

[Discussion] It's so quiet.

Has anyone ever noticed that? The Danganronpa fandom, at least publicly, seems to be so very, very quiet. I don't really know if that's something unique to Danganronpa itself or unique to this day and age, but it's so... difficult to facilitate extended discussion or community engagement in public spaces.

Now, the reason I put this here on Dreamwidth honestly isn't a dig, rather it's because this community and the inherent nature of Dreamwidth makes it much more likely to foster an actual discussion. If I were to post this on Tumblr, I doubt there would be much discussion to be had. The post may get some likes, maybe a single reblog, but other than that? No one would actually answer, I don't think.

Granted, talk of notes just kind of makes me sound like a whiner over engagement, doesn't it? But that's not really the issue here. The issue is nobody talks to anybody, for whatever reasons, and that's so weird to me. Fandom is about collaboration and building off of one another, isn't it? Why is it so quiet, then?

More lies... )
