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.)

After surviving the V3 killing game, Shuichi, Maki, and Himiko wake up to a place they haven't seen before...and are treated to a hopeful surprise, but even after their wonderful surprise, it seems as though the killing game isn't over just yet...

This is an au I guess No despair {The Junko is ded} It takes place during summer break Kaede is an airhead Shuichi is the quiet kid How will their love story play out???

This fanfic begins in the early days of being trapped in the killing game, it's an unlikely place but romance can somehow manage to form anywhere no matter how complex it is. Kaede and Shuichi are able to figure out their emotions and deal with events in the process. Note: Only the storyline belongs to me, the cover and overall characters/game belong to separate creators <3

Shuichi is determined to solve the mystery behind the murder of Kaede's mother, but his investigation forces him to get closer to the ultimate pianist. As it happens, the boundary between duty and love blurs. Doesn't involve a killing game, and everyone has their talents. All characters belong to Spike chunsoft.

Kaede Akamatsu has no faith in humanity; and she's determined to fix that in her own special way, no matter how long it may take.

(READ THIS!!) NOTE: im discontinuing since ive lost interest in dr, and i no longer feel motivated to write this. ty for all the ongoing support and love for this fanfic but tbh i made this like a yr ago and i just dont like dr anymore 😭😭 Okay, so i headcannon pg shu to be more jealous and rude to kaede, not obsessive, so if your looking for some obsessive shu drooling over kaede- your not gonna get it here. and kaede will be really flirty and be manipulative, as well as liking shu and being flirty to him. it'll make more sense in these next few chapters. (and yes i am going to copy and paste this into the first chapter so everyone knows.) PLOT: Shuichi and Kaede both go to the same school, however a new girl comes (this being himiko) and tells Kaede about her knowing how to make love potions and Kaede commissions Himiko to make her a love potion, shortly after manipulating Shuichi into drinking the love potion he falls head over heels for Kaede. SHIPS: Oumeno Saimatsu (obivously.) I hope you guys enjoy this! This is my very first fanfic so go easy on me, k?

After Kaede confessing her feelings for Shuichi, he managed to mess up letting her down gently & told her he had a boyfriend. He ended up asking Kokichi Ouma, who is already madly crushing on Shuichi, to pretend to be his boyfriend.
