I've Got A Bad Case Of Loving You - Seiko Kimura x Male Reader (Danganronpa)

Chapter 4: An Addictive Yet Tasty Desire (Part 2)

As you and Seiko broke off from your hug, you saw Sonosuke and Ruruka coming back with the food you ordered. Sonosuke handed over a cup of strong coffee to you, and also your plate of freshly cooked scrambled eggs and bacon. You savored the wonderful smell before you began to eat up. It's been a while since you've had this. Ah, tastes just as good as I remembered it.

You looked across the table and saw Ruruka holding a frappuccino in her hand. You were surprised at the large stack of waffles (with whipped cream on top) on the plate in front of her. I didn't know Ruruka had that kind of appetite, if I'm being honest, you thought.

She then took her fork and knife and began cutting up a few waffle pieces. She took a maple syrup bottle on the table and began pouring syrup on her waffles. Ruruka then turned her attention over to Sonosuke. "Hey, Yoi-Yoi, say ah," she told him. She took a small waffle piece with her fork and began to feed him. Sonosuke smiled as he let his girlfriend feed him. Okay, not what I expected, but... I'll admit, this is actually pretty cute.

You went back and finished up the rest of your food, and then moved on to drinking your coffee. Strong, not too bitter, but mostly refreshing. Ah...that really hits the spot, you thought. That's what I needed.

"So, why don't you tell us a little about yourself, Y/N?", Ruruka asked you, mumbling as she took a bite from her waffles. "You know, all this time, you've been asking about us, but you haven't told us much about yourself yet."

"Oh...uh, sure. All you had to do was ask," you told her. "What exactly do you want to know? How I got here? What I do with my talent? Give me some specifics here."

"Sure, why not? Didn't your talent involve, oh, I don't know, deep sea diving, was it?", Ruruka asked you.

"Eh...close. I specialize in marine biology. My talent involves me studying marine life and organisms, and how they interact with their environment. Although I often have to travel to the ocean to perform my studies," you told them.

"What kind of sea creatures have you seen? Any sharks or anything like that?", Seiko asked you.

"Sharks, not so much. I tend to stay away from the larger predatory sharks in my research. But I did see many other sea creatures, though. There was one time I swam alongside a green sea turtle off the Gulf of Mexico, I also got to witness a pod of dolphins, even a manta ray. I could keep going for who knows how long," you told them.

"So how do you put that talent to use here at Hope's Peak?", Ruruka asked.

"That was an issue for a couple of months. When I first got here, I had to go to the local aquarium to perform my research. It wasn't exactly the best experience at the time. After a while, the school was able to approve me of going on diving expeditions near the ocean region. That was much better for my talent. Researching marine life in the wild is much more relaxing than studying them in tanks," you said.

"I would suspect that. Getting to witness them, out in their natural habitat, interacting with their free range, all while not being trapped in a tank. Must be a unique experience going out into the ocean, isn't it?", Seiko told you. "I've never really been to the ocean before, Y/N. What's it like there?"

"Depends on where you're going. If you visit the ocean during the summer time when it's warm, the water feels absolutely wonderful. And depending on the shore you go to as well. I mean, I'm not sure how you would feel if you went to swim in the ocean, Seiko."

"Sounds like you have quite the experience under the sea," Sonosuke remarked, finishing up the last of his coffee.

"You could definitely say that, I guess," you told him. "Say, if we're on the topic of discussing each other's talents, how about you tell me a bit more about yours, Sonosuke? I've barely heard anything from you this entire time."
