Trust Arc Chapter Five: Settling in! A Broken Door?

Original Release: March 13, 2020 (Fanfiction.net), March 14, 2020 (AO3)

Summary

With orientation now complete, Makoto decides to settle into his new dorm. Will he and the Ultimate Detective cross paths for the rest of the evening?

Tropes

  • Call-Forward: Makoto watches the same video of his family that would later be used for his motive video, albeit without the Naegi household in ruins and Monokuma's promise of "graduation".
  • Green-Eyed Monster: After overhearing Makoto watching his video, Kyoko feels jealous over his loving and stable family while hers isn't so happy.
  • Last-Name Basis: Kyoko makes it perfectly clear to Makoto that he only refers to her by last name.
    Makoto: Thanks a lot for helping us out here, Kyoko…
    Kyoko: Kirigiri. We’re classmates, not friends. You are to address me by my surname in any instances of conversation.
  • Rage Breaking Point: While trying to help Makoto with his door, Sayaka gets so angry that she starts kicking the door out of frustration.
  • What the Hell, Hero?: Sayaka calls Kyoko out on being rude to Makoto when he calls her by her first name.
    Sayaka: What’s your deal?
    Kyoko: Hmmm?
    (Sayaka stands in front of Kyoko's dorm room door.)
    Kyoko: Would you be so kind as to step away from my door, Maizono?
    Sayaka: No! Not until you explain yourself. Why were you so mean to Makoto before? I can understand being uncomfortable with a boy you just met calling you by your first name, but you could have been a little gentler about it. You owe him an apology tomorrow!
    Kyoko: I don’t owe anybody anything. Or did you forget that I’m the one who got his door open? Now, step away from my door, Maizono.
    (Sayaka moves out of the way.)
    Sayaka: I feel sorry for you, Kirigiri. You seem to have no friends, and you push away whoever tries to be your friend. Makoto’s too kind to say it, so I will in his stead; you’re a jerk, Kirigiri!
