PLEASE READ THESE! THEY ARE VERY IMPORTANT

Disclaimer: All these headcanons were made up by me (@poetcriedpower). Most, NOT ALL, of pg Shuichi's headcanons are based on my real life experiences. I made most of these up to cope with stuff that's happened. A lot of them are insanely specific so that's why.

(Update : 11/4/2021 : I redid some of these because some of the terms were outdated. Behave yourselves, this is an old fic)  

Also, this document contains mentions of manipulation, s**c*de, ab*s*ve parents, alc*h*l usage, and bullying. Please read on with discretion.

Pregame Shuichi Saihara

Home life:

His parents are emotionally distant, verbally, mentally, and physically ab*s*ve.

His parents never got married, he was basically an unwanted child.

He often goes hungry because his parents will lock the cabinets with food in them to "punish" him

He secretly longs for the family he never had

Personality

He suffers from mental illnesses such as ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, depression and anxiety issues.

Very Clingy. Never had friends as a kid so he latches onto anyone he can

Almost too forgiving

He'll do anything to make the ones he loves happy and often buried his emotions during his relationship with Kaede (explained later) in order to keep her from getting upset.

Fears hurting people. He constantly thinks it's his fault that people are afraid of him.

He's morally gray, meaning that he has a sense of what he thinks is right and wrong to do to other people but is easy to manipulate because he doesn't really know the right way for himself to be treated

He almost always blames himself when something bad happens

He has almost no clue of any social etiquette so sometimes he comes off as creepy when he really doesn't mean it

He has trouble focusing in class but is actually really smart, so he often finishes his work ahead of time and spends class time zoning out.

He babbles a lot about his hyperfixation on Danganronpa to anyone who will listen

He gets his homework copied off of all the time but doesn't really think twice about it because he views it as helping the other person

He's actually very artistic and creative but often doesn't know how bring together his ideas cohesively

He's awkward. That's it send tweet

He is very jumpy and babbles a lot about Danganronpa and other things often losing track of what he's saying

He's flirty and confident around the people he's comfortable with

Often puts on a cool boy act in front of Amami and Akamatsu (post their breakup) to try to fight his bad reputation

Theater kid


School life

He was never really popular at school but had a crush on Kaede. He thought they were friends but she didn't.

In middle school he went to the same one as Tsumugi, in which she got him into Danganronpa and Homestuck (yes, Homestuck exists in this universe just let me live). She was his only and closest friend but she moved to a different province after they graduated middle school.
