me every time shin gets the hacking gun and i see this

You must not talk to the other students here, it's important, almost like common knowledge. Do you remember the keychain that looks like eyes? The one on the laptop...

( he lists, chuckling softly as he tries to fill in what connects so that shin can get an idea, he's pretty observant, and if komaeda didn't know better — it's why he does less, and lets komaeda do most.

it was already on detect, i'm tearing up, but seeing shin tinker around with it makes komaeda look off to the side, that sort of fooling around would cost him his life. a monokuma unit would strike the moment they saw an opening, and he can only be disappointed that they're not in his world considering it'd be interesting what the other would do. watching him flick through each one makes komaeda wonder if he's trying to see it's capabilities.

it's the professional stance that makes komaeda laugh, looking off to the side acting as if he didn't see anything embarrassing. as for paralyze, the yellow bullet shoots out with the sound out electricity crackling and snapping heard, and a bit of it might cause the tips of shin's fingers to tingle. burn causes an influx of smoke to appear from the mouth of the microphone, and nothing comes out, he can try again if he wants...? as for link, the machine shoots a multicolored heart towards the paintings, passing through them, and disappearing from view. i am so sad they're not inside the school, i would have let him control a monokuma, but i thought the heart going through midori was traumatizing enough.

when he choose the hope bullet, it doesn't do anything at all at first, but shin will find that there's this tingling sensation that courses through his body. it's almost like it's searching for something, and the hacking gun in his hand glows a faint yellow around the rim. komaeda doesn't look away to see what direction it'll shoot, rather his eyes remain on shin as he too follows the same action as the gun. hope is a very sensitive aspect, it's one that effects the future, one that can only be found by uniting with others, that sort of thing is what makes a healthy world. hope can overcome all despair, no matter what horrible event manages to appear, as long as people have courage, as long as they believe, and pull through, by never giving up and moving forward to push themselves over every hurdle, and their limits, that hope can change the world and rally others.

shin tsukimi is weak to him, he doesn't have hope that he could compare to an ultimate when komaeda first met him (but memories serve their purpose, and he finds that despite he's weak, he doesn't think as negatively as he should), but around the time he chased the other down, he felt something different. a small hope... it was like a seed that had been settled in the dirt for a long time, and the small leaf of its sprout finally pushed itself up, allowing the light to bask in its attempt. to komaeda, a miniature hope like that is weak, it can do nothing, but if it's nurtured properly, if it can grow to an extent that even he couldn't expect, could that hope help others? would it spread through the world, being able to cover the world in a warmth by his actions? between then and now, komaeda hasn't made much of a habit to bring it up, but he knows that it's there, as tiny as it is, and he wonders if he was to blow his breath would it go out so easily, just the same as his composure.

his eyes watch the hacking gun, waiting for the bullet to explain the power behind the holder, can he prove something here without meaning to? could he do the same thing as komaru naegi? an ordinary girl who managed to form the bullet of hope with another despite not having any? would shin be able to be just a little surprising, and at the mouth of the hacking gun starts to try... something, it's forming a small ball of scribbles inside that goes back and forth between white and blue, they can hear it attempting to make something, but in the end, it explodes, fizzles out, and there's a soft hiss that comes from the device.

komaeda's not surprised. )


Thought so.

( is the only response he has from how sure he is about it, but he casually attaches a few more words so that he can act as if he meant something else. )

You have really bad luck searching for detect, don't you?
