Upload Notes: Kirigiri's Diminishment Game
🕑 Added 2021-07-13 08:05:44 +0000 UTCSo, perhaps you've noticed... that this story doesn't exist anymore. Uh oh! Wha happun! To get it out of the way first: Diminishment Game ended up slipping the line of some patreon policy, and so I've been requested by the site to take it down due to its content. It is what it is~ The same fate has also happened to a couple other stories with similar themes.
What of these stories then? Well, I intend to share these stories through other means. To best be posted for what that entails, I recommend joining my Discord server~ I'm active there with updates, and once I've come to a decision, I'll let everyone know what's going on. And hey, if you want to stop by and say hi, please do! It's not much, but I try to keep my lil server cozy. You can join it here!
For those that did manage to read the story, here's some upload notes for you! For those that haven't, maybe you'll get some fulfillment reading these notes anyway.
A Danganronpa story! The first to come out from me, and probably not the last. This series is pretty dear to me, even if I've been slacking on playing v3. There's loads of characters I'd be happy to write about, but this one's about Kirigiri and Junko, two VERY lovely ladies. Their dynamic works out perfectly for this cruel-themed story that's appropriately filled with despair~ Needless to say, I enjoyed writing this one! And there's lots of fun plans ahead to get to~
This story injects itself as an alternate ending to the original game, so I wanted to capture those feelings from that moment in the story very well. I had to remember things like Junko mocking around with Monokuma, and the fact that at this time, Kirigiri still doesn't remember her talent. In general, it's always my hope with fanfictions to capture correctly the feelings of the original work. I think that's most evident with Junko, whose personality is just... very iconic, isn't it? Hah, it was great to play around as her! She's so wild and sick, nasty gremlin. Letting her go to town as she pleases with a tiny Kirigiri just sorta comes naturally~
There are some elements I wish I took to a bit more. Danganronpa has a peculiar energy to it that's so manic and fast. I wanted to be like that a bit, but my style is a bit... slower. It's something I want to keep in mind going into the subsequent additions, trying to replicate that feeling of the in-game executions. I should try to make Junko's playing around more intense, more psychologically driven...
An alternate ending was also included, for patrons only! That's something else that got taken down, of course, so I hope folks got to read that when they had the chance. I thought alternate endings would be perfect for this series, since it already lends itself to moments where it feels like Kirigiri could fail. In a way, I sort of think of these endings as like... what happens in video games, when you fail too many quick-time events. Kirigiri just didn't push A rapidly enough -- those are always the worst. "Press L and R to push away the boobs!" That's what it looked like on her screen.
There's a lot to look forward to about this series~ Hopefully I'll have an easy way to distribute it when that finally comes around! Thanks for the support~
