THE CONTRACT LOG: insert madoka reference here
Who: Kiyotaka Ishimaru with Everyone and Anyone!
When: I'm backdating this to February 5th, before the field trip.
Where: The common room of the dorms
What: The new student council president has to draft his own contract with the school, and you get to help!
How: Carefully
Warnings: Your standard Yogen warning for discussion of death and murder. Dangan Ronpa spoilers may also come up.
[Ishimaru has called his own meeting in the common room of the dorms. All of the transfer students are invited, and he won't bar native students from attending as well. Ishimaru stands by the common room's coffin, which is currently covered with a tablecloth that totally makes it not look like a coffin, and he uses it as a makeshift podium to address the student body.]
Greetings, my fellow students. Most of you should know me. For those who do not, I am Kiyotaka Ishimaru from Class 2-E! At home, I was known as the Ultimate Public Morals Committee Member. Here, I have served as a member of the student council for quite some months now! ...And, just recently, I have been appointed as the student council's new president. I wish that I could feel prouder... that this position would come as a result of effort. Unfortunately, this position has instead come to me as the result of the loss of another life. I might not have seen eye-to-eye with Arisu-kun in many ways... but I would never have wanted things to go this way.
[He looks down for a moment, before he clears his throat.]
That said... as much as I wish things were different, that does not change the current circumstances. She is gone, and what she has left us with is... is a new opportunity. Many of you may have been aware that there is a contract forged between the student council president and the head of the school, which has control over certain factors such as the criteria for final exams and graduation. It seemed that it can also be used to challenge the terms of past contracts! So now, I have been given a chance to draft a new contract. Not only that, but I have time to decide on it, and I am allowed to crowdsource ideas before finalizing it.
[He balls his fist up with determination!]
And that is why I have called us together today! I feel that it would be best to hear out others' input and discuss matters before putting pen to paper. Also, it is possible that other students know things about contracts that I am not aware of. As your president, I want to hear all of you out in order to make the best possible decision!
[He'll allow some chatter, whole he consults his notes before he goes on to explain more.]
Arisu-kun's contract was shown to me. It appeared to have been heavily revised, with large portions of it being blacked out or unreadable. I only managed to gather several things from it. First, that grades and work ethic should be considered as important as karma and merit when it comes to deciding graduation and moving up a grade. Secondly, her contract was supposed to void out the effects of the contract of the previous class president, Aiko-san. I am unaware of anything regarding the contents of Aiko-san's contract. All that I do know is that Arisu-kun's contract came with a stipulation. Aiko-san's contract would only be voided if Arisu-kun managed to survive two years as class president. As we know, she unfortunately did not live up to those terms, so Aiko-san's contract should still be in effect. That is one problem for me... Without knowing the terms of that contract, I do know if I should take up her fight in challenging that contract or leave it be!
As it is, there are several thoughts that I already have in mind about this contract. First of all, I fervently support Arisu-kun's idea of holding up the importance of work ethic and grades. I do not wish to challenge it! After all, I am stern believe in the power of hard work, and I feel it would be best if this school reflected that. My next thought is that I wish to challenge the culture of murder in this school. We have all suffered too much during our time in these halls, so I wish to make a contract with terms that will discourage killing as much as possible. In the end, I wish to make this a better place for all of us.
[With that, he looks out towards the assembled students.]
I will now open the floor for discussion! Please tell me your thoughts!
[ooc: This has ended up being really long, sorry about that! I wanted to make sure all the information necessary for this conversation was included. And also sorry about taking this long to get this up! OOCly I believe we have some time to thread this out, ICly the contract is currently due mid-February. Feel free to take your time, or threadjack as needed, I just wanted to get this up and get the ball rolling!]

[Ishimaru nods diligently as he puts more items in his internal to-do list.]
I do not know what you mean by 'protagonist', but of course I am very willing to work with Sara-kun on this matter! Let's all do our best together to uncover as many truths as we can!
no subject
( that way they can split up, learn information, and then regroup. not having anything on aiko is unfortunate, and makes things difficult in whether they should cross out her contract, or keep it going. what if she was too generous, but maya was crueler? or it could have been the other way around, but it is a shame that they couldn't learn her contract before maya died.
they could use the coins, but... it's probably too late for that. )
If you learn anything, I'd love to hear it... and I'll give what I know. What do you say?\
[ ... ]
Naegi-kun was also your protagonist at one point, but now as Ultimate Hope... he's transcended. Hm... Chidouin-san will change the game in such things, is what I mean.
no subject
[By working together, they could put together the best possible picture of the deceased presidents.]
Of course, I will share any of my findings with the rest of you, and I would love to hear anything that you might learn as well!
[He wasn't sure he wanted an actual answer to the protagonist question, but well, there it is. He gives a confused blink as he answers him with more meek confusion.]
...Ah.... Yes, of course, I see. Thank you for elaborating, Komaeda-kun. [He just feels more confused than ever!]
no subject
( this is the obvious, something natural that they should all know. learning about a person, understanding them opens so many avenues to see why they do what they do. bonding, shared experiences, none of them were able to connect with aiko in such a manner, but there's others who have. his hands cross on the table while watching ishimaru, and he finds that he's someone who is very engaging in creating bonds with others, and so what is the need to say something so kind? )
You would have came to the idea anyway, there's no need to thank trash like me, Ishimaru-kun.
no subject
[His arms are folded firmly as he responds to him! Maybe he can make him accept his gratitude.]
Even if it is possible that I could have come to similar conclusions, that does not diminish your contributions to the slightest! If someone gets the door for you, you thank them even if you could have opened it yourself. Of course, that is an even simpler scenario. Regardless, it does not change the fact that I have chosen to thank you! I wish that you would not compare yourself to trash, Komaeda-kun! You are as worthy of recognition as anyone else!
no subject
( he lives for hope, dies for hope, and everything he offers is to see ishimaru elevate to levels that's never been seen before. his death was a hard one for komaeda when he watched the other fall, having learned the reason of his demise, then to be reminded by the black book — it was upsetting. now, it's like he can he can assist, but there's no need for ishimaru to thank him. it's just like this, komaeda gives because that's what expected of him. )
I should be thanking you for listening to me, Ishimari-kun. Thank you... To even listen to filth like me, it does... make me happy.
no subject
[Komaeda could be confusing and his words could be too murder-y at times. So it's refreshing that he's been more directly helpful lately. It helps him feel more hopeful at the very least!]
In any case, I will also stand by the gratitude that I feel for your help, Komaeda-kun, and I shall remember all of your input!
no subject
( he's going to stare at him, looking off to the side as if he doesn't understand what's being said to him. acknowledgement from ultimates are nice, he feels his heart skip a beat sometimes, and there's no way to dismiss his kindness.
with a nod, komaeda still believes that these are facts that have no need in being thanked. )
You'll be a great council president, I'm excited for what you have in store for us.
no subject
...Thank you, Komaeda-kun! I will work hard in my position and do my best not to let you down!
