A Hopes Peak Academy without despair? Shuichi Saihara and Kaede Akamatsu are first years at Hopes Peak Academy and together they get through their high school life in the most prestigious school in the nation. Shuichi Saihara is the Ultimate Detective that definitely needs a little bit of a confidence boost. He has doubts if an apprentice detective like him can really be considered the Ultimate Detective. Kaede Akamatsu is the Ultimate Pianist that has a bunch of confidence! But, she does talk about piano a lot, making her feel annoying. Watch as they expand their relationship together as they get through their troubles. Non Despair AU, and obvious spoiler warnings :P Cover photo credit: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/849210073483338048/ (i think this is the original ?? i tried to reverse image search it but i couldnt find another one so i guess this is it.)

Shuichi survived... or so he thought he suddenly wakes up in a hospital but next to him he sees someone he never thought he'd see again..... "Kaede..?"

Non-Despair AU! The game has never existed, but they have their in-game personalities, if that makes sense. Description coming when I finish lmao- suffice to say Kaede Akamatsu joins Hopes Peak Academy mid-school year, for now. Title credit goes to my friend @panicminusthedisco (or something like that, I didn't memorize it) If I put any art in here, it's not mine. Credit goes to the original artists!!!
