I wanted to bring up a silly ship idea. Just for fun.
03, 06, 09, 10
Was this before Kotoko attacked them? After? I dunno.
Thoughts?
YES the cringefail 20yo polycule 👏👏👏 Thank you for the request! I've seen a lot about the individual pairs, so it was really fun to think about all their dynamics together! I have a set of hcs that could work in the current canon Milgram, and then a normal au set because it's so fun thinking about them :3
Milgram-focused
The I’m-a-loner-who’s-doing-it-for-justice-don’t-TOUCH-me pair finally meet their match when confronted with the I-loved-someone-so-much-and-don’t-plan-on-stopping pair. They all go into the relationship with grand ideas of love: they think it’s all heroic acts of saving, massive gestures or love, and dramatic confessions. Over time, they realize the real heroism/romance is in the little things.
Mahiru has her hands full with three people who neglect themselves for the sake of their work/interests, but she always loves feeding them and helping give them what they need. In turn, they can give her more affection and attention than she could ever ask for. They make sure someone is always around to spend time with her.
Each of the three is a perfect match for dealing with John’s reveal. Mahiru is calming and helps tone down Mikoto’s initial stress. Fuuta is honest and will help Mikoto finally confront his own situation and move forward. And since Kotoko can match his strength, Mikoto doesn’t need to be afraid of accidentally hurting anyone. Mikoto becomes less stressed with the overall situation as well as more accepting of himself/John.
I always love the idea that Fuuta is secretly starstruck by Kotoko and John’s strength. He’ll never admit how much he admires their ability to stand up and fight. He feels really safe around them. He’s glad to have the opportunity to fight for someone else, too – he likes to be Mahiru’s self-proclaimed protector and hero. (Even though most of the time she can stand up for herself, she still likes letting him take care of her.)
Kotoko’s experiences let her hold solid conversations with everyone. She’s similar enough to Fuuta where they share some interests (social issues, schooling, etc.) She understands hard work and burnout to earn Mikoto’s respect. She understands physical strength to earn John’s. She has a lot of people-knowledge, so she can gossip and talk about Tokyo life to Mahiru (Mappi’s doing most of the ‘gossiping,’ but Kotoko has solid additions). She's a good listener and has a good memory, so everyone feels heard by her.
They start to rub off on each other. Mahiru and Mikoto learn to be a bit tougher in standing up for herself. Fuuta, John, and Kotoko learn to take a breath before jumping right to violence. They stay very much who they are, but pick up on just a few habits that make their lives easier.
Their styles also influence one another: Fuuta gets pointers from all three about piercing his ears (though it takes him a long time to get up the nerve to do it). Mahiru helps the others dress more trendy and boost their confidence, and they teach her to worry less about her appearance and relax more.
If they get together T1, Kotoko is shocked by the T1 verdicts. She might pull away from everyone in initial horror, but after developing a relationship ahead of time, she doesn’t follow through with her attacks. If not, then maybe in T3 when Kotoko is suffering from her guilty verdict, Mahiru and Mikoto are able to bridge the gap and develop a friendship, leading to more. Fuuta would take longer to come around, but I think seeing Kotoko got through the same pain as him, his hero instincts would kick in and he’d gradually help.
Normal-au
Mahiru once again tries out her lovers’ interests, and gets a bunch of new hobbies. Fuuta teaches her to game, she works out with Kotoko, and she tries out photography with Mikoto. She becomes close with Fuuta’s beautician sister, and enjoys bonding over fashion and hair. She helps redye Mikoto’s hair, and give the other two pointers on style now and then. When going to nicer events, she and Mikoto have to step in and stop the others from their sneaker/hoodie combos. As the only one with a license, she’s the designated driver at all events, but doesn’t mind.
Fuuta uses his tech skills to set up social media accounts for the others. He helps Mahiru network her flower shop, fighting anyone who leaves a bad comment/review. He helps set up a complex online portfolio for Mikoto. He and Kotoko still have a passion for justice, and he becomes the tech brains behind her vigilante operations (very Ron Stoppable - Kim Possible) It’s not necessarily healthy growth, but they’re happy with it lmao
Mikoto is the only full-time worker, the others are all still in university, and he makes sure to keep them all on track. He knows the most efficient tricks and cheats about getting papers done, pulling all-nighters, and cramming before an exam. The others have learned to spot when he’s burning himself out for others, and will stop him when he tries to take on too much. They’ll take care of him and force him to rest. While he can still get into a bit of trouble, John learns to call them first and get some help.
Kotoko has trained herself to find people and information easily to catch criminals, but she finds use for it in much more mundane ways – she tracks down clients for Mahiru, snoops around Mikoto’s company to make sure he’s being treated right, and keeps an eye out for the people Fuuta is calling out and/or hanging out with. She goes on runs with Mahiru, and bike rides with Mikoto. Fuuta tags along sometimes to strengthen his legs for soccer.
There’s definitely potential for them all to have their murders pre- or mid- relationship, and they help one another improve themselves and heal. I’m also a sucker for the relationship itself to cause them to change their ways and narrowly avoid the murder in the first place. (For the latter, Mahiru would ironically be the last to join the relationship, since she’d still be with her bf until the other three inspire her to break it off with him gently.)

Jealous!Luke where it turns into public sex?? 👀
oh my god. oh my god okay. he's pouting in the corner booth in a cantina party somewhere because he looked over and someone else danced up on you for a few seconds, or someone else hit on you, or something, and like, you're not interested in that person and he KNOWS it but he's still miffed. but he's also shy, and he's tried to flirt with you, he just doesn't know if it's working or what.
when you realize he's not having a good time, you ask him what's wrong and he halfway avoids the question.
"You're jealous," you accuse teasingly. "You like me," you continue.
"I– I mean, sure I like you," Luke starts.
"Like me," you correct, suddenly reminding yourself of childish primary school playground antics.
"Well if you already know..." Luke trails off, sounding a little miffed.
You move in to sit next to him, reducing the personal space between the two of you to mere inches, and lean to whisper in his ear, "Do something about it."
"W-what?" Luke asks, not protesting, just needing to know he's hearing you properly. Judging from the fact your hand is creeping up his thigh, he's pretty sure he understood what you meant.
"You heard me, baby, show me you like me. Right here."

very curious as to how we all settle on ship names for mygo!!!!! (specifically ones involving tomori), since ive seen so many different ones floating around already!! ik this doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things lol, just sharing my thoughts for funsies :]
im curious if there are any other mygo fans out there (please say hi) who were trying to find a community around them, and maybe had the same thoughts as i did! how do we decide ship names lmao?!?! so take my silly ramblings under the cut if you're interested :D
ive seen tomotaki as a name for taki x tomori a lot, but i feel like using tomo as a shortening for tomori's name will just get confusing? because that's already a pretty common one for tomoe, and i think even platonic mygo and afterglow interactions would be really neat to see, so i feel like it just unnecessarily muddles things y'know? takimori is what ive personally been saying, but i genuinely don't know?? how people end up coming to any kind of consensus on these things lol. it's baby's first time in a newly growing fandom like this
iirc ive seen tomoanon used for anon x tomori, which is my personal fave mygo ship, so ive been using anomori as their ship name? for the same reasons as not wanting to confuse tomori with tomoe, there are enough confusingly similar names in bandori (soyo, saya, sayo...), i'd love to be able to avoid any confusion with ship names too. anonmori is also a fun one i think, but i found that anomori rolls off the tongue better (at least as an english speaker lol)
it's mostly tomori ships ive been thinking about, because the rest of the names feel very distinct! like takisoyo, anotaki or takianon, anosoyo or soyoanon, there's always some variation in ship names throughout fandoms so those feel less pressing to me. i was just curious if there are any other mygo fans trying to build some more community around them who had the same thoughts as i did! polygo could also be a cute name for all of them as a group, though i guess it could be similar to polyglow lmao. i am also proposing anotakimori as a concept and a ship name
one of these days you'll get a giant ass essay from me about why i love anomori specifically, but if i post about them i have no idea what to tag it as, and i figured i can't be the only one thinking about this and maybe having an issue with it! so yeah mygo fans sound off pls i am dying to find more of you and i'd love to hear ur thoughts!!

I wonder if Sakura was supposed to kill Junko.
If Mukuro believed she was going to fake die and then go help Junko run the Killing Game.
If she really believed she was never going to have to be part of the class trial part of the game, and then when Sayaka screwed up that plan and Junko wasn't going to let up and was going to force her to actually play, Mukuro didn't even think about the rest of it. If that's why she noped so hard and stepped on Monokuma.
Like - the idea of Mukuro prior to this during the lead up to the tragedy having to sit around while Junko makes her best OC ever Monokuma DO NOT STEAL and Junko sending one of the first Monokuma over to her excited because he's working and Mukuro both amused but also a soldier who very easily proves that Monokuma is nothing by Look, Junko, he's a stuffed bear, I can just step on him! and He's not a stuffed bear; he's Monokuma!
Of Mukuro only ever half-taking Monokuma seriously and that being fine outside of the Killing Game, but she can't get away with it here because Monokuma has to be taken seriously.
Mukuro who expected a very specific plan and was not particularly flexible to being collateral damage when the plan didn't go right (except it did) and as a result literally causing herself to be collateral damage.
Because you thought Monokuma couldn't be terrifying; screw you, I will prove he CAN, and you will be my example met with Junko Ultimate Analyst listening to the Ultimate Gambler about being adaptable.

I still think it's hilarious that in Meteors AU, literally every single person knows about the haunted pile of robot spaghetti that is Tangle, except for Roxy. Who has been unknowingly visiting them and staring them right in the face, for literally years now. She has no idea. Fucking Cassie's dad Eddie knows about them. The Sewerhell guys know about them. The fucking horsies probably know about them. DJ, who is too big to get anywhere fucking near Tangle knows about them.
But not Roxy. It's a mystery to everyone. Half of them think it's a denial thing or willful ignorance. They're completely wrong she genuinely has no idea they're there. Tangle has willfully made their presence known to so many of the others and have tried a hundred times over with Roxy but she just. Has no fucking clue.
If it's haunted, Roxy doesn't know it exists. That's just how it is. She can see Glitchtrap pulling puppet strings on Vanessa and the others, but she can't see the spooky spirit spaghetti. This isn't even just Meteors. She just has no idea. The guy is like glass that gives her a headache, she can't see them but wow does her head hurt after staring into the darkness outside the pizzeria for a minute. Strange. Weird, even. Bizarre, perhaps.
Why does everyone keep freaking out at the shadows?? There's nothing even there. If there was? She'd know! Even in Meteors with her almost complete blindness in the dark, she'd know! Roxy knows everything that's down here and nothing gets past her without her knowing! They must be seeing things smh smh such overreactors smh
