You Think Having A Sibling And Surviving Is Hard? Try Being A Male Floormaster...

i’m not even a gigantic mitski fan but ppl treat her so terribly literally just saw a video of her performing and she’s in the ground during a quiet part of the song like doing performance art and the dumb ass crowd (or atleast a good chunk of the people there) are saying shit like “not mitski dying🤪” “mitski GET up this ISNT YOU!” “mommy wake up 🥺” over and over and it’s just so. disgusting and weird like i hate that she got turned into a “meme” celebrity especially bc of her newest album being about how she hates feeling burnt out by the media / her fans / being turned into some kind of character rather than a regular person im not even touching the cell phone incident thing bc that’s a whole convo of its own but i feel like a lot of you just don’t know how to interact with others and also have trouble with immediately getting parasocial with every public figure u see

DARWIN and GUMBALL from TAWOG are antiship, maybe theyre not related- but theyre brothers at heart <3 rqed by @aesthetique-self-ships

I found you, superstar! 🍕

im trying to figure out a new drawing setup… in the meantime……… botsun

just a thought

Not to fandom on main but the major Your Turn To Die dichotomy isn’t actually between emotion and logic. It’s between social logic and pure, heartless calculation … and social logic wins every damn time.

A potent example is the second trial. It’s presented to you that the “logical” choice would be to vote for Kanna (saving Sou), and the “emotional” choice would be to vote for Sou (saving Kanna). But if you actually look at the situation, voting for Sou is the most dense thing Sarah can do in that moment, for a couple of reasons.

Firstly, Sou will very clearly not co-operate with you after killing Kanna no matter how theoretically resourceful and smart he may be. Sparing him does not actually benefit the group in an obvious way.

Secondly, the one thing Sarah has on her side is that people trust her to be a strong, fair leader. But Sarah no longer looks like a good leader after sentencing a small child to death. Now, she just looks like a calculated bitch, which she sorta is in that version of events. After all, everyone was laying into Q-taro when he looks like he’s putting his own life above Gin’s. They’re not going to be feeling good about Sarah sentencing Kanna to execution, whether they vocalize that or not.

In short, social capital is necessary to survive the Death Game (a concept made explicit through mechanics like the token trades, clout, and of course, the majority vote), and killing a child in order to spare an unhelpful harbinger of discord is obvious social suicide.

And this is why Sou could never win the Death Game in any of the AI trial runs; tech-smart he is, and calculated he may be, but he explicitly admits that he has no idea how to gain trust from other people. He lacks social logic! His tendency to wildcard his way through social situations (such as the First Trial) with alternating lies, threats, and niceties paints him as an unstable individual whom few will be inclined to trust with their life.

Well, minus Kanna, who is (again) a literal child in living a state of immense trauma.

Relatedly, this is also the reason why Mishima was the first to die! Mishima actually has good interpersonal skills, but his offputting demeanor instantly pings multiple people’s internal sense of social logic as “potential creep, do not engage” even though he’s actually a pretty decent man who just has something very wrong with his posture and hair. So alongside that stunt he pulled where he had Nao vote for him in the test vote, it was inevitable that someone was going to be giving him a hard enough side-eye to sling a vote his way.

This is also why Sarah repeatedly wins trial after trial in the AI tests. Sarah has a strong sense of social logic, and easily wins trust thanks to her general confidence and empathy.

In any case, I theorize that the game is essentially set up to find the most charismatic damn liar/leader out of the bunch to run the criminal underground shit; failing that, the game’s general set-up would otherwise at least ensure that the winner is the most ruthless motherfucker in the room.

So either way, you’re cultivating a born leader, or someone scary af.

If I see another bald danganronpa character meme I'm gonna do things that'll make Chris Mclean look like a pacifist.

SPORTACUS & ROBBIE ROTTON from lazy town are very antiship, they are good role models! rqed by @kombatkraze91 <3
