Greeting everyone, muk854 here with a brand new kind of story. Now for those who don't know I am a fan of the Danganronpa series thanks to my friend seanzilla115, who you should check out. And I am also a fan of Naegiri, the ship between Makoto Naegi and Kyoko Kirigiri. And in the honor of Naegiri week, I decided to join in with a weeklong of one shots.
Now be advised, my knowledge of the series is limited. I only know of DR1, some of DR2 and V3, and I haven't watched the Danganronpa 3 anime so these one shots will only be from my knowledge.
The prompt for Naegiri Week Day 1 is Fluffy, which is fitting because these one shots are going to be filled with so much fluff. So without further ado, enjoy.
Another long day for Kyoko Kirigiri. Most of her day was with her working on different cases without taking a break except to eat. However she was used to this, as the Ultimate Detective she was known to take several cases at once. She was used to situations like this so it was no big deal to her.
Still, that didn't make days like these less tiring for her. Constantly she had to fight the temptation to stop what she was doing and take a break. She had a job to do, not just as a detective but also as a Kirigiri. So as tiring as it was, she knew she couldn't stop working.
"Just about finished with this one."
Thankfully she didn't have to do this alone. She looked over at Makoto Naegi who had just closed a case file and placed in a pile with other completed files. A small smile formed on her face as she resumed working on her file.
Originally when Makoto had volunteered to help Kyoko out with her cases, she declined saying that he didn't need to assist her and that she can handle them on her own. But the boy was insistent, and she curses herself for being unable to keep saying no to him. Even so, part of her admitted that it was nice having the luckster with her.
The two of them have been in her room working on cases for almost two hours now and while none of them seemed tired, Kyoko knew for a fact that the boy beside her must be getting exhausted.
"You know Makoto, if you want you can stop," she informed him, not even looking up from her file, "As much as I appreciate you assisting me, I would rather you take care of yourself if you are tired."
"It's really no big deal Kyoko, I wanted to help you with your cases and I'm not stopping until we're done," he said as he started on a new file, "Although I will admit these are tiring, I'm amazed you're able to do all of these without a single break."
"It's part of the job," she explained, "After having multiple days on nothing but looking at crime scenes and working on cases, you start to get used to days like these."
"I don't think I would ever be able to get used to this even if I worked on them for so long," Makoto chuckled, "You really are amazing Kyoko."
Another smile found its way on her lips at Makoto's comment as she continued with her case, "You're pretty amazing yourself Makoto."
"Me? Nah there's nothing amazing about me," he replied.
Her smile quickly went away as she sighed. She hated it when he talked down to himself like this. To him, he's nothing compared to the other students in his class. While he appreciates meeting all of them, he often feels that he doesn't belong with them.
But Kyoko knows that isn't the case and that Makoto belongs in Hope's Peak just as much as everyone else. She knows that Makoto is a strong and caring person, and it's those qualities that she likes about him. If she didn't, she wouldn't have put so much trust in him. So much trust as to remove her gloves when they're alone, revealing her scarred hands to him.
Her hands that, for some reason, feel like they're petting something soft and fluffy.
"Um, Kyoko?"
She looked over at Makoto, whose face was heavily red, to see that her arm was reached out and was running her hand through his hair. Neither of them said anything and just stood still before Kyoko pulled her hand away from Makoto's hair.
"Apologies Makoto," she said with a small blush on her face as she turned away from him.
"I-It's fine Kyoko," he said, his face still a bit red.
Awkward silence filled the room as neither of them spoke a word and they just worked on their cases. However Kyoko couldn't focus as her thoughts were running at how soft Makoto's hair had felt. She hadn't expected his hair to feel like that, they certainly didn't look soft.
Yet when her hand was running through it, it felt like she was petting a fluffy dog. Since she was doing it unconsciously, she didn't get a good feeling of it and wished that she could feel it again. "Who knew your hair was so soft Makoto," she said before realizing she said it aloud. She looked over at Makoto, who stared at her in shock as his face grew even more red.
"Th-th-thanks, K-Kyoko," he managed to say, scratching his head in embarrassment.
"I'm sorry if this is making you uncomfortable," she said apologetically.
"It's fine really," he assured before looking away sheepishly, "I uh, I kind of liked it really."
Now it was Kyoko who was surprised by his response before quickly regaining her composure, "You wouldn't mind if I continued?"
"Not at all."
Accepting his invitation, Kyoko resumed letting her fingers run through his hair, now fully feeling the soft sensation. She couldn't help but smile as she resumed working, her hand still going through Makoto's hair, "This isn't distracting you is it Makoto?"
"Not at all, in fact it kind of helps actually," he replied.
"Same, looks like we found ourselves a way to keep us motivated," she said.
He nodded in agreement as they continued working and her hand continued running through his hair. Kyoko wondered if this would form into a habit whenever they're alone, but it didn't really worry her. Afterall, it's just another thing she gets to do with Makoto, which she is always up for.
And done. Got to say the moment I saw that the prompt was fluffy, this idea immediately came to mind. Really hoped you guys enjoyed this, this is my first time writing anything Danganronpa related so I hope I did a good job.
So now we are starting Naegiri week, stay tune tomorrow for Day 2.
Sain'ofu.
