the mastermind meme

[monomods]

 

You asked for it, we're finally giving it to you! Say hello to the mastermind meme!

What does this mean exactly? It means your character is the one responsible for everything! They've been controlling Monobear from the shadows (or maybe they have an assistant to help them, possibly even one of your classmates!), they've been putting forth the motives, running the trials, all of it! And now they've finally chosen to reveal themselves and their true motives.

What are their motives? Why do they want to spread despair? Are they somehow connected to the late Junko Enoshima? And most importantly what is their snazzy Monobear-themed look like? You decide!

Threading reactions is highly encouraged and feel free to AU things up to mix up our current survivor pool as much as you'd like.

Fuckin goddamn typical that the troll ends up being one who caused this all.

Now, Roxy's not a speciesist-- many good times were had laughing it up with Fefeta, who was made up of two dead trolls. But then you have the Batterwitch, or that Serket gal. Roxy knows that trolls have a violent streak right in their DNA, that they're of a different mold than humans. Much like her carapacian neighbors, but very different from them as well. It really shouldn't surprise her that Aradia had some sort of fucked up idea to do all this.

But it does surprise her. Moreover, it hurts. Aradia had been one of the people she was closest to, even if their conversations were never incredibly deep. Roxy trusted Aradia, like she did John and Jimmy. She'd been in the Top Tier of Roxy's ranking of how well she liked people.

Also, the green and red with the black and white is making Roxy think of a funeral at Christmas, and it's fucking with her head a little. ]

So, what the fuck is happening here?

[ It screams SHENANIGANS but Roxy would like an explanation before anything else, of course. ]

[ The hurt, the surprise. How Despairing. The girl who had come up with these games first would eat those emotions right up.

Aradia, for her part, smiles brightly at Roxy, not making any move to stand from her chair. Instead, she gestures to the podiums around the room - set up in the same circle as always, photos of dead classmates included. ]

Isn't it obvious what's going on, Roxy?

[ Her voice isn't notably different from usual. Calm, lively, affectionate; it's all still there. ]

Though I'm afraid you're going to have to take your spot before we proceed, as usual. There's no reason to go off-script. In fact, there's every reason not to do so.

[ Aradia points to Roxy's usual place, although Roxy ought to know which podium is hers by this point in time. This is Roxy's seventh time in the courtroom. ]
