grown man calls you his kitten in front of your friends, what do you do? (aka what happens when @four-white-trees and I have been very bad influences on each other)

#kuwagami #yagami takayuki #kuwana jin #lost judgment #judgment #judge eyes #takayuki yagami #jin kuwana #sugiura fumiya #kaito masaharu #jichanart #inspired by discord shenanigans #again #the idea of kuwana calling yagami his kitten with his whole damn chest was just too funny to pass up on #ESPECIALLY with an audience #because you just know this is going to be held over yagami's head forever #as soon as he thinks everyone's forgotten kaito snorts and says “kitten” and yagami cannot wish death upon kuwana harder #kuwana's shitty flirting is so real to me #and yagami hates that he's still in love with him. embarrassing #tbh i was planning to use the “go fuck yourself” for something in a fic but i couldn't think of another set up for my shitty kitten joke #so if you see me use that again no you didn't #personally my favourite parts of this are the kuwana in the first panel (cute) and the reaction shots at the end lol #yagami's face truly says “kys” and i wouldnt have it any other way #i've gotta get more familiar with comics and csp's tools because it's a bit rough around the edges but fun to make #and i also gotta draw catboy yagami tbh #sorry. had a lot of thoughts making this.#hope you like it kuwagami friends :D

Sunday six! Back to the murder mystery series. I got an idea for a third in the series so I gotta finish these!

This week: kuwagami button pushin. normal things.

Tagging: @overdevelopedglasses @mike----wazowski @skysquid22 @passthroughtime @fragilitease @danketsuround @jichanxo

Sugiura leaned against the kitchenette counter, a beer in hand. Yagami recognized the label; it was the same one Kuwana had been drinking at his home. “Hey, Yagami-san,” he greeted with his usual friendly tone. “Kuwana-senpai was looking for you.”

Kuwana was wearing an irritating smirk. “I thought I might’ve caught up to you on your way here.”

“And why would that be?” Yagami asked, letting his irritation be obvious on his face and in his tone. “You said you wouldn’t help us.”

With a casual shrug, Kuwana picked up his own can of beer, the condensation on the can running down his fingers, and took a deep drink. “I suppose I changed my mind,” he said after he’d swallowed.

“You suppose?”

“You’re hot, Yagami-san,” he said, and Yagami’s thoughts shorted out.

“What?”

“I brought a peace offering,” he said, holding up his can. “Sit down and cool off.” His eyes shined with mischief. He knew exactly what he was doing. Yagami’s irritation was quickly fanning into anger.

Three months. That’s how long Byakuya Togami has been sealed inside of this place. Not a long time, not in the grand scheme of things, but certainly long enough for him to have come to several concrete conclusions.

One: endless, aimless downtime is as useless here as it has always been.

Two: in recognition of this downtime, making his way through the library’s extensive collection one book at a time is the most constructive use of what remains of Hope’s Peak Academy’s amenities.

And three: when not caught in the crosshairs of his classmates, despite his numerous and severe misgivings about this entire situation, he can achieve something that could almost, possibly, be peace.

In the quiet of the library, Byakuya’s following exhale comes out slightly heavier, a barely-there acknowledgment of his own wry thought. He turns a page in his book. As if.

(or: a brief exploration of life for class 78 pre-memory loss, from the most annoying guy possible)

for nelly / @11037nonsense as my piece in the @shsl-islandmode-events gift exchange!

Regarding Sawa and Kusumoto

I’ve had some meta-thoughts rattling around my brain about Kuwana / Yagami parallels. The game makes a lot of these parallels completely textual – “Two Sides of the Same Coin”, Kuwana’s own words…

Kuwana is Yagami’s shadow, of course– shadow-self, another path he could have taken.

What I want to talk about in this post is the parallel roles of Sawa Yoko and Kusumoto Reiko in Yagami and Kuwana’s respective justifications for their sense of what’s right. In a very real sense, Sawa is Yagami’s trump card for his justification, and Kusumoto is Kuwana’s.

I’ll also get into how Sawa-sensei and Kusumoto-san’s respective agency and experiences play into or contrast with how Yagami and Kuwana are interpreting their stories, and make some remarks about what the game does with those narratively.

*

Starting with Kuwana, Kusumoto is clearly the person in his history he’s the most protective of. He makes frequent reference to how he’d never give her away, and believes for a long time she would never betray him either. And he even forgives her without hesitation upon learning she betrayed him for Mitsuru’s sake.

Kusumoto-san, I believe, crystallized the purpose he set for himself in order to assuage his guilt. She also gave him company in that, by taking up some of that blood on her own hands, and conferring a kind of gratitude that was almost like forgiveness to him, for his inaction.

I loved that the game let Kusumoto’s decision to come clean completely eviscerate Kuwana, just have him on the floor begging and bawling. She really was a foundational brick in the foundation of his vigilante-justice-in-the-hands-of-the-forgotten narrative, and the breakdown he suffered was pitch-perfect.

Now what of Kusumoto Reiko herself? I think it’s interesting that the game does give more than ample space to ask the question of whether she’s justified, from a few different angles.

First, Kawai’s judgment, from her personally. She wanted to give him a chance to show he truly meant it when he begged her for forgiveness. He failed completely to recognize her, acting like a boor. The game itself also narratively tells us in other places that he bragged about his bullying – no remorse there.

Her torture of Kawai before his death seems to have had an effect on her– she doesn’t regret it, but it was difficult for her, she didn’t relish in it. And at the end of the day, she still was grateful to have the chance to enact justice, and it gave her a kind of bitter peace.

But the revenge didn’t help her son live. And the moment he came to life, she realized that she could not undo the blood on her hands, that she had, in her rage, erased her chances to live a normal life with her son. She was in the shadow.

Now, let’s talk about Yagami and Sawa.

Much to-do is made of how often Yagami harps on “what happened to Sawa-sensei” as his one and only fallback for justifying to Kuwana and his accomplices (co-murderers?) that their actions are wrong. Others apart from me have pointed out that the narrowness of his argument is exactly the point: without cold, hard evidence that someone had gotten hurt as a result of their web of lies, Yagami has a lot less to go on (even to himself!) to make his case.

This holds weight with Kusumoto, because of Sawa’s fundamental decency (in contrast to Kawai’s, might I add!).

And ultimately the combined guilt of having betrayed the one decent classmate to Mitsuru, and the parallels of “keeping secrets for life kills” that Sawa presented did wear down Kusumoto and influence her decision to come clean.

The fact that Yagami pins his convictions on Sawa-sensei makes sense. But it is interesting to contrast that with how she is.

Sawa is in some ways, powerless and even lacking in conviction to act on what power she does have. Sawa has been a bystander for not one, but three cases of serious bullying, by the time the game starts (Mitsuru, Toshiro, Koda)-- and has never been able to follow through on speaking up for the victims. Speaking out against those who covered up their horrendous neglect (hello? What even happened to that horrible teacher who covered up Toshiro-kun's bullying??)

Yagami, on the other hand, handles Koda’s bullying case with uncanny grace for an outsider. Not only does he prevent the bullying and start to turn on the minds of the bullies, he does so by encouraging the other students to speak up.

This also provides the parallel that I’ve teased out in the earlier discussion of Kuwana and Kusumoto’s relationship: both Yagami and Kuwana provide tools that they previously lacked to deal with the bullying problem. Yagami, some preventative medicine that worked wonders. And Kuwana, well, the power of Incredible Violence, I guess. The fact that Kusumoto embraces Kuwana’s tools whole heartedly, and Sawa resists Yagami’s interventions despite seeing them work is, I think, another interesting contrast between Sawa and Kusumoto.

But to round it back to Yagami/Kuwana parallels and discussion, the contrast in the methods they both offer is, philosophically, is why I still align more so with Yagami than I do with Kuwana, even though I’m sympathetic to the realities the game is presenting: that the justice system failed the bullying victims. To focus on the prevention of further violence and injustice seems to me the kinder thing than to enact retribution in the shadows that’s so utterly violent that you believe it’ll prevent further violence (I don’t think this is true! I think Kuwana is very wrong about this! Punitive justice is not good!).

I’ll end this with a tantalizing question – what kind of paths could be explored if Sawa had not been killed by Soma? I think there could be some really interesting canon-divergence AUs there, and I’m not guaranteeing they’d be positive ones either. Without Sawa’s death giving Yagami more solid justification for staying strong, there’s a lot less he could do, persuasion-wise, and internally, to get people on his side. But by the same token, there seems to be less of an immediate impediment to Kuwana and Yagami being on opposite sides…opportunities for both redemption arcs and corruption arcs there.

Food for thought for ficcers ;) and feel free to run with this, if you like it. I’m a “many cakes for many concepts” fic enjoyer, so even if I did write such an AU, I’m sure it’d be particular and different.

And if you've read this all, thank you! Kuwana and Yagami are living in my brain rent-paying <3

i think the thing that really gets to me about kuwagami is that even if they never see each other again they'll probably think about each other for the rest of their lives

#yagami takayuki #takayuki yagami #kuwana jin #kuwagami #lost judgment #lost judgment spoilers #judge eyes #judgment #jichanart #i can't believe i made kuwagami art that BARELY has kuwana in it lmao #well he's the text pov so it's fine #accidental rainbow colour scheme lol #that shot of yagami with his friends but his smile slowly fading as he thinks about kuwana? fucked up. FUCKED UP #like tell me yagami in his 50s/60s isn't going to sometimes think of him and wonder if he's still on the run or if he's even alive #breakup so messy they irreversibly changed each other. real divorce hours
