[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!)

[Hinata is quiet as he absorbs Amami's words. It's not that he doesn't accept it, necessarily; the resistance is still there, but not so much that he can't try to open his mind to the things Amami is saying.

It's hard, though. So difficult, when it's the only way he's ever known how to be, ingrained down to every bit of his character.

He can't even imagine what it would like like. A Hinata Hajime that tried to stand on his own.]

A reason... that's important enough, huh...

[Hinata's fingers curl as he breaks eye contact.]

I tried to find things I liked when I was younger, you know? I thought that might be good enough to get me into Hope's Peak, if I had something I was good at or at least passionate about. But... nothing ever stuck.

[When Hinata lifts his head again, his eyes are tired, expression. But there's something there - a flicker. A spark.]

Maybe... it would be different if I tried now. But I wouldn't even know where to begin.

we can rebuild him

That's one way to do it, but I guess there's a difference between a talent and a purpose.

( while hinata might be a little off the mark here, amami still looks pleased enough with the path this is taking. he gestures to himself absently as he continues. )

Maybe I'm not the best example, since I can't prove I really have one. If I do though, it's not something I can figure out so easily — and whether I have one or not doesn't change the fact that there's something I need to do.

( it's the idea of having one that he shouldn't — couldn't be proud of, when he meets his sisters again that scares him far more than that. and, you know, that's what he's getting at; something more important than talent, something totally removed from talent — really, something far more intrinsically linked with his failures and shortcomings. it's hard to express all that simply though, and harder without going into his own reasons, so he exhales and... skips that part. something for hinata to figure out for himself, maybe. )

It doesn't have to be anything fancy, but maybe if you give it some thought you'll find it — something that you need to do no matter what.
