Dead Girl Walking Update

Chapter 7 and 8 are out for anyone wondering!! Chapter 9 is planned and should hopefully be out sometime in the next two weeks. I have midterms and my co-author has had some crazy stuff happen to them, so it might get delayed ^_^;;

But rejoice because the first arc of the story is almost complete!! Things are going to start getting real juicey from Chapter 10 onward 😌

Okay DRV3 Fans Let's Talk about Canon Ages.

Because I woke up and my brain connected the dots, and because some of you are fucking weird about High-school students. So let's clear the air here--and let's just say they're probably over 18 years old.

In my Gonta rant (which yes I'm linking here, go read it) I call him a young adult. Some people are under the impression (like that anon I got last night) that the V3 cast is canonly 16 or younger due to... whatever the fuck reason. But! I am here to argue a counter point--that the V3 Cast is actually much older and are more college age than young highschoolers.

First of all, let's remember the fact that in all DR games, the cast has gone to high school for some amount of years before their memories are wiped. V3 Also has this feature, and it is within the canon story that these kids remember attending HPA.

Now whether or not you believe this to be true is irrelevant right now because I need you to remember that the backstory for these characters was that they were being hunted down by the Ultimate Hunt, which means they were Ultimate Students at HPA first. Then they had their memories wiped to go into hiding. Yada yada.

The important part actually comes from Kirumi, however. Kirumi is the character that proves that the V3 cast is older than 18 years old.

Remember this tidbit--where Kirumi was the maid of the Prime Minister? Well, when do you think she became the maid for the Prime Minister, do you think?

I have an answer for you.

This is the dialogue from Kaito's "My Future" cutscene from DR:S. The "My Future" Cutscenes take place at the end of the run with the character chosen, and DR:S takes place right at the end of their 3rd year of attending HPA.

Kirumi doesn't specify who she will be working for, but considering that this person is such a big deal what she felt the need to consult Kaito about it, to help her sort out her feelings, I think we can all agree this is heavily referencing V3's plot where she is the Prime Minister's Maid.

This means that Kirumi only took the job as the Prime Minister's Maid at the very end of high school.

That means that by the time V3 runs around, she's well out of high school.

Now you can argue that V3 and DR:S aren't in the same canon--and you'd be right! I would never consider them to be canon to one another. However, this scene shows that in DRV3 and in DR:S, the intention for Kirumi to have been the Prime Minister's maid started at the very tail end of her time in high school. Same character, same backstory, different situation.

Meaning by that logic, Kirumi--as well as her other classmates--are over 18 years old in V3.

They are young adults.

I listen to anti-hero while thinking about kokichi and I start frothing at the mouth

Okay but genuinely the way people write miu and kokichi is so strangely fanon? People constantly has miu hating Kokichi, enjoying hurting him, enjoying killing him, etc. yet this has no base in canon beyond them insulting each other? Like yeah they insulted each other but they also heavily schemed together, made plans in secret together, made new inventions together, and when Miu did try to kill Kokichi she’s was constantly apologizing and basically froze up as she kept repeating how she was sorry but she needed to do this and how he should just give up. Their dynamic is infinitely more interesting when you just admit they were friends because then the themes of betrayal in that chapter hit even harder. Miu betrayed Kokichi and it tore her up immensely, she took no pleasure in luring him to the roof.

Kokichi’s story is FILLED with people that in a better place at a better time could have been genuinely close friends to him and Miu is no different. Miu lashing out at Kokichi with malicious glee has never made sense for her character, especially with how often people make it so Kokichi need help with her? It’s weird how fanonized that dynamic became!

Like or reblog if you ship Miu/Kokichi!

The irouma fic my friend and I have been working on, Dead Girl Walking, has been stuck on 69 kudos for weeks… I cannot help but feel this is some kind of sign.

Tired from building things out of Kokichi’s scribbles

Spent all day drawing new things for Miu to invent

[my art do not repost]

Whenever I see someone say anything along the lines of “Kokichi would be too annoying to deal with IRL”, I immediately know they didn’t grow up with brother(s).

you guys get irouma yuri 👅👅.. , ..... i must feed my nation ..... .. .

anyway im gonna do some digital art stuffs neow.. i never charge my tablet so. i usually cant

heh.,. .

Miu Iruma the woman that you are

Thank You For Over 1,000 Hits On Dead Girl Walking 🎉🎉🎉

If you’re one of the 1,000 people who have been reading Dead Girl Walking, thank you very much! An even bigger thank you to anyone who has left comments and kudos — we’re so close to reaching 100!

the way i immediately thought of them when this meme dropped

'A demon makes itself beautiful to trick humans and an angel makes itself scary to ward off evil' or something i guess

Will Kirumi ever meet Kokichi’s dates-, I mean, roommates

lets go to a cafe ^_^

not enough people talk about Miu and Kokichi as very Similar Characters in the way they operate. too tired to explain more at the moment but, going off some stuff Kodaka's said in his Q&As, Kokichi's whole deal is also Pure Attention

I think about this all the time. Like, Kaito said he passed the exams, which means he should know astrophysics and such… But it’s never talked about??? Now, I low-key need a fic of Kaito and Miu bonding over a shared love of space engineering, lmao.

I think the comedic potential of Kaito's talent is underutilized. Like, sure the "Ultimate Astronaut" hasn't been to space, but like how funny would it be if he's still like an esteemed rocket scientist and astrophysicist?

Like Miu tries to build another Jetpack That Sucks You Off™ after the first one explodes and Kaito takes one look at the blueprints and goes "Oh, you forgot an O-ring seal on the right SRB here, that should keep your fuel stabilizers from decoupling" to the abject bewilderment of the others.

The man deserves the Fred Scooby Doo treatment where he's still a dumb jock, but with a PHD.

Chapter 6 of Dead Girl Walking is up!

It is important to note that this chapter deals with dark subject matter.

What if Miu bunny?

They’re so superior.

I really like this duo, in both ways, platonically and romantically

Chapter 5 of Dead Girl Walking by Smilesgoformiles on Ao3 is out now!

Happy reading!

This is basically a missing scene from Chap. 4 of "Dead Girl Walking" /hj /lh

komanami for the soul (mine)

Miu plushie wishes you a happy new year!

Honestly, Kokichi’s relationship with her goes even deeper. He was the only one who scratched the surface of her because he was so good at reading people. Moreover, he valued Miu’s talent as an inventor enough to trust her with his plans. In a way, they showed their true colours to each other more than they did the others. So, choosing Kokichi as her victim probably wasn’t a painless decision.

i'm kind of unwell about Miu Iruma to be honest. she's a jerk and she says horrible things but she's also a lonely inventor with extreme abandonment issues and actual delusional breaks. she firmly doesn't believe she's human and she assumes everyone's out to destroy her because of it. imagine you go through your whole life like that but you're smart and you can Make Stuff. and then get caught in a killing game and to get out and help humanity you have to nail the dude that everyone hates. Easy Peasy. you set it up to be a perfect plan. but he outsmarts you even at that. another loss for you in a long line of losses. your death is slow and painful and only the kid you called a slur and the other kid you didn't even consider "real" mourn you. i have rabies because of her. i have holes in my fucking brain

Thank you!! She slays so hard in that fit 💚 The style just suits Miu so well IMO.

here ya go! dunno this style but it’s pretty cool!

thank you for the idea! (can’t @ unfortunately cuz idk it ;( )

Dead Girl Walking by Smilesgoformiles on Ao3

Miu Iruma dies choking on a cocktail of betrayal and guilt.

Then, she wakes up — in a body more foreign than familiar and with memories more false than true.

One thing’s for sure, though: everything must be Kokichi’s damn fault.

Chapter Four is out now! My co-author and I try to update every other week ☺️
