[semi-open] second truth bullet: hinata's memory

[futurebullets]

Who: Hajime Hinata and YOU
What: A catch-all log for Hinata throughout the month! Closed things will added by request, open things for stuff outside of event top-levels
Where: Various
When: Mostly June, at least one or two things backdated to late May
Warnings: SPOILERS for chapter 4 of Super Dangan Ronpa 2, after the Final Dead Room Discussion



Notes: Hinata will be undergoing a canon update that will have taken place on the 4th! He will be approaching things considerably more depressed and/or apathetic after this takes place, so you're welcome to tag him between the 1st and 3rd if you'd rather have normal Hinata! However, the threads that take place after the canon update are very important. It's something I've detailed more on plurk, but essentially there's something of a "game" that I have going. Hinata now has a "trust" level that's been reset to 0 - if his points are positive enough, he will be updated to either chapter 5 or the end of the game, and if his points fall too far, he will be "reverted" to one of two earlier canon points (chapter 1 or pre-game) and lose all of his Yogen memories. Close CR has more weight at first, but anyone has the power to affect him, so feel free to take a shot at raising or lowering those points!

If you have any questions or would like to plot things, feel free to reach me at Yamadori! (You're also welcome to write starters for me as well, just give me a heads up first!)

2/4 - my best and worst gift to you... though I adjusted a little bit tonight

[futurebullets]

[Hinata wakes up in a way that he isn't expecting.

Migrating from back-to-back to facing Komaeda in his sleep, limbs wrapped around each other and chests pressed together, as carefree of space as if they were siblings or lovers - things that would distract Hinata with embarrassment at any other time.

But these are not the things he isn't expecting.

It's the sense of overwhelming peace that relaxes every inch of his body, his mind settled and not stressed and constantly pushing the way it's felt every day since the year or two before junior high, too much expectation and pressure placed on the shoulders that had once been too small to bear it. It's how his brain isn't buzzing, finally, thank Christ, the white noise of fear and anxiety and stress completely wiped clear. It's the way his heart aches sweetly in his chest, as he sees the softness of Komaeda's face in sleep and thinks, There you are. A reunion with the person that has always been there, has never gone away. The boy on the beach that he's missed every day. I found you, he thinks second, almost giddy in his wonder.]

Komaeda.

[His voice is a little hoarse after a night full of silent conversations, gentle as feathers in the morning light. If Komaeda happens to wake up, he'll see the soft wonder in his eyes, maybe hear the way his breath catches on the syllables of his name.

He thinks.

I'd wake up next to you every morning, if it felt like this.

He feels like it's okay, for once, to be Hinata Hajime. He's happy to be him, if he gets to experience this.

Even if he still isn't sure why he'd deserve it, he could learn how to be proud.]
