### Main route

#### Scene: MC's bedroom

\*Scene fades in\*

\*Play music: Ohayou Sayori!\*

\*Player is hovering over Main Character 1 with MC1's head in the expressive main character box\*

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally, eyes closed): I yawned and stretched as I woke up to my alarm.

**Main Character 1** (happy): I surprisingly slept well last night.

**Main Character 1**: No nightmares. No abnormal dreams.

**Main Character 1**: I think today's gonna be a great day.

**Main Character 1**: I eat breakfast and before heading out for school, I think I'll take a breakfast bar for Sayori.

\*Scene fades out\*

#### Scene: Residential area

\*Scene fades in\*

\*Sayori enters the scene\*

**Sayori** (both arms down, happy, eyes forward): "Good morning, [mc1 name]! Have a nice sleep?"

\*Player exits out of Main Character 1's body as he enters the scene\*

**Main Character 1**: "Better than ever. Here's a snack bar for you."

**Sayori** (talking happily, eyes closed): "Oh, thanks."

**Sayori**: "Nom, nom, nom!"

**Sayori** (happy, eyes forward): "You are in such a good mood today."

**Main Character 1**: "I'm feeling much better than the other days."

**Sayori**: "Glad to hear it."

**Sayori**: "Shall we go?"

\*Sayori and Main Character 1 leaves the scene\*

\*Scene fades out\*

#### Scene: Classroom

\*Scene fades in\*

\*Player is hovering over Main Character 1 with MC1's head in the expressive main character box\*

**Main Character 1** (happy, eyes forward): Classes went by better than expected now that I feel more motivated.

**Main Character 1**: Maybe I'm just excited about the upcoming festival.

**Main Character 1**: I never got to see the festival unless except in other game mods if they did.

**Main Character 1**: I'm sure nothing bad will happen.

\*Stop music, fades out\*

\*Scene fades out\*

#### Scene: Clubroom

\*Scene fades in\*

\*Play music: Main Theme\*

**Main Character 1** (happy, eyes forward): "Good afternoon, everyone!"

\*Yuri enters the scene\*

**Yuri** (both hands down, happy, eyes forward): "Good afternoon, [mc1 name]. I hear from Sayori that you are feeling better."

**Main Character 1**: "Very much."

\*Natsuki enters the scene\*

**Natsuki** (both arms down, mouth closed flusteringly, eyes away): "Well, I still feel like crap."

**Natsuki**: "Do we really have to recite our poems to the class?"

**Yuri** (left hand up, parting lips sadly, eyes away): "Don't worry, Natsuki. I'm...not ready either."

\*Sayori enters the scene\*

**Sayori** (both arms down, happy, eyes forward): "Don't worry, you'll all do great."

**Sayori**: "I'm sure of it."

**Main Character 1**: "I think I'm ready."

**Sayori**: "Since you've been so happy, wanna go first, [mc1 name]?"

**Main Character 1** (blushing neutrally, eyes away): "Umm... why don't you start first, President?"

**Sayori** (blushing happily, eyes away): "You silly... Alright."

\*Natsuki and Yuri leaves the scene\*

**Main Character 1** (happy, eyes forward): Sayori grabs a written piece of paper and walks to the podium elegantly.

**Sayori** (smiling, eyes forward): "This one's called...*Shining Sorrow*."

\*\*AUTHOR NOTES: "Shining Sorrow" is the name of an original song and a single I composed as "Thunder Dragon" (in the original Guitar Pro 6 version on YouTube) and "The Thunder Dragon" (in the initially single release, later changing my musician alias to "Thunder Dragon Music" in the revision). My original song was inspired by some of Metallica's softer songs like "Fade to Black" and "Welcome Home (Sanitarium)".\*\*

**Sayori**: "Ah..."

**Sayori** (blushing happily, eyes closed): "...Ahaha!"

**Sayori** (both arms raised): "Sorry, I giggled..."

\*Main Character 1 is curious\*

**Sayori** (happy): "Ehehe..."

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally): "Sayori..."

**Sayori** (nervously happy, eyes away): "Guess I still get nervous doing this."

**Sayori**: "(I'll try not to think about it. Think what she told me...)"

**Main Character 1** (curious): Sayori is mumbling to herself.

**Sayori** (talking neutrally, eyes forward): "Okay, then..."

**Main Character 1** (wondering): Sayori begins her poem.

**Main Character 1**: Somehow, it feels like her soft voice was made as a perfect match.

**Main Character 1**: Her voice sounded serene and bittersweet, just like the poem.

**Main Character 1**: The poem felt dark and saddening at first but as words passed by...

**Main Character 1** (surprised): ...Her voice brightened the poem, giving it a more happy feel...

\*Sayori is happy\*

**Main Character 1** (happy): Turning all of that negative feelings into positive emotions.

**Main Character 1**: It's mighty impressive.

**Main Character 1**: Sayori finishes, and we applaud.

**Sayori** (right arm raised, happy, eyes closed): "I did it~!"

**Main Character 1** (talking happily): "Good job, Sayori."

**Main Character 1**: "Okay, I think I'll—"

\*Yuri enters the scene\*

**Yuri** (left hand up, yelling, eyes forward): "I...I'll go next!!"

**Main Character 1** (surprised): Yuri interrupted me.

**Main Character 1** (neutral): Guess she wants to get her poem out of the way. I'll let her.

**Sayori** (both hands down, smiling, yes forward): "I see you're enthusiastic, Miss Vice President."

**Sayori**: "Take it away!"

**Main Character 1**: Yuri clutches a sheet of paper between her hands and stands up.

**Main Character 1**: Keeping her head down, she walks quickly over to the podium.

**Main Character 1** (thinking): Since their poems are the same as before except for Sayori's poems...

**Main Character 1**: ...I'm guessing this is the *Afterimage of a Crimson Eye* poem she recited in the original run.

\*Sayori leaves the scene\*

**Yuri** (parting lips sadly, eyes away): "This poem is called—!"

**Main Character 1** (wondering): Yuri anxiously glances at each of us."

**Sayori** (off-scene): "You can do it, Yuri..."

**Yuri**: "It...It's called..."

\*Main Character 1 is surprised\*

**Yuri**: "*Beach*... Just...*Beach*..."

**Main Character 1**: This is a surprise.

**Main Character 1**: Natsuki's head perks up as she smiles.

**Main Character 1** (curious): Isn't this supposed to be a midday poem if I were to keep Yuri and Natsuki balanced?

**Main Character 1** (wondering): Yuri recites the poem the same way as if I were to read it.

**Main Character 1**: Her voice shakes as she starts reading the poem.

**Main Character 1**: Just yesterday, she practically refused to do this.

\*Yuri is parting lips calmingly, eyes closed\*

**Main Character 1** (surprised): As Yuri gets past the first couple of lines, her voice changes.

**Main Character 1**: She's in a tranced state as if she was reading her books alone.

**Main Character 1** (happy): Her quivering words transform into the sharp syllables of a fierce and confident woman.

**Main Character 1**: Despite having a small title, the poem is full of twists and turns in its structure that she enunciates with perfect timing.

**Main Character 1**: She is so into it.

\*Yuri is parting lips sadly, eyes forward\*

**Main Character 1**: Suddenly, she's finished.

**Main Character 1**: Everyone is stunned.

**Main Character 1**: Yuri snaps back into reality and glances around her as if she bewildered even herself.

**Yuri** (both hands up, nervous, eyes away): "I..."

**Main Character 1**: ...It's up to me to save this situation.

**Main Character 1** (talking happily): I'm the first to start applauding.

**Main Character 1**: Everyone joins me afterward, and we give Yuri the recognition she deserves.

**Main Character 1**: It's not that we didn't want to applaud for her.

**Main Character 1**: But we were caught so off-guard that we must have forgotten.

**Main Character 1**: As we applaud, Yuri holds the poem to her chest and rushes back into her seat.

\*Yuri leaves the scene\*

\*Sayori enters the scene\*

**Sayori** (both arms raised, smiling, eyes forward): "You were wonderful, Yuri!"

**Sayori**: "Thank you for sharing."

**Yuri** (off-scene): "..."

**Main Character 1**: Looks like Yuri is down for the count...

**Main Character 1**: "You were amazing, Yuri. Okay, I'll guess I'll—"

\*Natsuki enters the scene\*

**Natsuki** (left hand on hip, talking neutrally happy, eyes forward): "My turn next!"

**Main Character 1** (shocked): W-what?!

**Main Character 1**: She wants to go *before* me?

**Main Character 1**: Am I really gonna be last?

**Sayori** (both arms down, sweatingly happy, eyes forward): "You must be really enthusiastic too."

**Natsuki**: "Me and Yuri wanted to write a poem about the same thing, so consider this a follow up."

**Main Character 1** (wondering): Ah, so we're getting Natsuki's midday poem instead of *Jump*?

**Main Character 1**: Was this one called *Beach* too?

**Main Character 1** (neutral): Anyway, Natsuki gets out of her seat pridefully walks up to the podium with her poem in hand.

\*Sayori leaves the scene\*

**Natsuki** (talking flusteredly): "This poem is called...*I'll Be Your Beach*."

**Main Character 1** (surprised): Oh right, that's what the poem was called. I thought it was just *Beach* too.

**Main Character 1** (wondering): Mandela effect or is it just me?

**Main Character 1** (happy): Yuri seems to be timidly happy but she's still nervous.

\*Natsuki has her eyes forward\*

**Main Character 1**: Natsuki takes a breath.

**Main Character 1** (mouth opened neutrally): She pridefully speaks her poem that it makes her poem sound powerful.

**Main Character 1**: The words feel like they bounce up and down, giving life to the poem.

**Main Character 1** (wondering): Just yesterday, she completely refused to take any part of this.

**Main Character 1**: And she wouldn't do this up to her friends.

**Main Character 1**: Guess Yuri's poem made her this confident to do recite her version.

**Main Character 1** (happy): I'm glad to know that Yuri and Natsuki are such good friends in this run.

\*Natsuki is talking happily, eyes closed\*

**Main Character 1**: Natsuki finishes, and everyone applauds.

**Main Character 1**: She walks back to her seat in a fashionable manner.

**Main Character 1**: Yuri seems happy.

\*Sayori enters the scene\*

**Sayori** (both arms raised, talking happily, eyes closed): "That was wonderful, Natsuki!"

**Sayori** (smiling, eyes forward): "I never knew you had it in you."

**Natsuki**: "Don't underestimate me."

**Natsuki**: "Try beating that, [mc1 name]."

**Main Character 1** (mouth opened neutrally, eyes closed): Here goes nothing.

**Main Character 1** (worried, eyes forward): Why am I last?

**Sayori**: "You can do it, [mc1 name]!"

\*Yuri enters the scene\*

\*Yuri has both hands down, wondering, eyes forward\*

**Main Character 1** (neutral): I stand up and step in front of the podium with the poem I wrote with the player's choice of words.

**Main Character 1**: Compiling and arranging the player's chosen words with my own into a poem was challenging.

**Main Character 1**: We usually do it in unison without me noticing someone else is writing for me.

**Main Character 1**: But we really do have separate minds and the player still picks out the main words for me while I write the rest.

**Main Character 1** (blushing neutrally): At this point, I'm nervous.

**Main Character 1**: Everyone has their eyes on me, making me feel terribly awkward.

**Main Character 1**: Just moments ago, I was pretty confident with my poem.

**Main Character 1**: Now that Yuri and Natsuki presented their poems, I started losing my confidence.

**Main Character 1** (mouth closed neutrally, eyes closed): After taking a few glances of my poem, making a few small coughs, I recite my poem.

\*Natsuki, Sayori, and Yuri leaves the scene\*

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally): I'd like to see everyone's reactions while I recite but that will make me more nervous.

**Main Character 1**: But I can tell that Sayori is obviously into my poem, no matter what I wrote.

**Main Character 1**: But I don't want to know what Natsuki or Yuri may be thinking about my poem until after I finish.

**Main Character 1** (blushing neutrally, eyes forward): Once I finish recite my poem, I began to look in the crowd. I feel awkward.

\*If poem is good for Natsuki\*

**Main Character 1**: Sayori claps for me.

\*Sayori enters the scene\*

**Sayori** (both arms raised, happy, eyes forward): "Well done, [mc1 name]!"

**Main Character 1**: Natsuki also claps with some respect.

\*Natsuki enters the scene\*

**Natsuki** (left hand on hip, talking neutrally happy, eyes forward): "I admit, it was okay. But mine is still the best!"

**Sayori** (left arm raised, talking neutrally): "Natsuki! Don't say things like that."

**Main Character 1** (worried): Meanwhile, Yuri claps softly, not saying anything.

**Main Character 1**: She seems to have a sad smile.

**Main Character 1**: I can't please everyone, can I?

\*Sayori and Natsuki leaves the scene\*

\*If poem is good for Yuri\*

**Main Character 1**: Sayori and Yuri clapped for me.

\*Sayori enters the scene\*

**Sayori** (both arms raised, happy, eyes forward): "Well done, [mc1 name]!"

\*Yuri enters the scene\*

**Yuri** (both hands up, talking happily, eyes forward): "Fantastic!"

**Main Character 1**: Meanwhile, Natsuki seemingly thinks my poem is trash.

\*Natsuki enters the scene\*

**Natsuki** (left hand on hip, talking neutrally, eyes forward): "Pbbt! You know you don't need to try hard."

\*Main Character 1 is worried\*

**Sayori** (left arm raised, talking neutrally): "Natsuki! Don't say things like that."

**Natsuki**: "It's still okay but nothing compared to mine or Yuri's."

**Yuri** (both hands down, parting lips calmingly, eyes closed): "Natsuki, we all did a good job. That's all that matters."

**Main Character 1**: I can't please everyone, can I?

\*Natsuki, Sayori, and Yuri leaves the scene\*

\*MC expression box disappears\*

\*Scene fades out\*

\*Scene fades in\*

\*MC expression box reappears\*

\*Main Character 1 is neutral, eyes forward\*

\*Sayori enters the scene\*

**Sayori** (both arms down, happy, eyes forward): "Alright, everyone! You all know that the festival is next week."

**Sayori**: "I brought some supplies and activities yesterday we could today."

\*Natsuki enters the scene\*

**Natsuki** (arms crossed, mouth opened neutrally, eyes forward): "Do we really have to? Can't we just read our stories?"

\*Natsuki closes her mouth\*

**Sayori** (left arm raised, talking neutrally): "I gave you guys more than enough time within the last few days."

**Sayori** (happy): "We're doing something new for once. The art club was kind enough to lend us these things yesterday."

\*Yuri enters the scene\*

**Yuri** (turned away, sad, eyes away): "Again, you never consult me about these things."

**Sayori** (talking sadly, eyes forward): "I'm sorry, Yuri. But you know this is our job to do while running a club."

**Sayori**: "But I'm sorry I keep neglecting my vice."

**Yuri**: "I-it's fine...You're right."

**Yuri**: "I do need to do my job more often."

**Natsuki**: "Then make me vice president if you can't take your job seriously."

**Yuri** (both hands down, talking seriously, eyes away): "Nats—"

**Sayori**: "Natsuki, hush. Yuri was the person after me who was interested in starting a literature club."

**Natsuki**: "Oh, were you even really the one who really started the literature club?"

\*Stops music, fades out\*

**Main Character 1** (worried): Oh no! I know where this is going.

**Sayori** (pointing fingers, pouting, eyes away): "Umm... Of course."

**Natsuki**: "Liar!"

**Yuri** (nervous): "I was with her when we applied for the Literature Club... right...?"

**Yuri** (talking nervously, eyes forward): "Huh...? W-w-wait a second..."

\*If Chapter 3's poem was good for Natsuki.\*

**Natsuki**: "Yesterday, [mc1 name], told us we are in some kind of game world. Who is this Monika?"

\*If Chapter 3's poem was good for Yuri.\*

**Yuri**: "Yesterday, [mc1 name], told us we are in some kind of computer world. Who is this Monika?"

**Main Character 1**: Should we tell them?

**Menu options:**

Yes

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally, eyes forward): "Sayori, I think it's about time we should really explain to them what's going on."

**Sayori** (parting lips sadly): "Right, of course."

No

**Main Character 1** (neutral, eyes closed): "..."

\*Main Character 1 is wondering\*

**Sayori** (parting lips sadly): "Actually, it's time we should really explain to them what's going on.

\*Main Character 1 is worried.\*

**Sayori**: "As you all are aware from the dreams you were having, we are living in a video game world."

**Sayori**: "Our world keeps repeating upon each playthrough and each reset."

**Sayori** (eyes away): "The girl in your dreams, Monika..."

\*Play music: My Feelings\*

**Sayori**: "She was the true founder of the Literature Club. I was her vice president in the...original timeline, as you could call it."

**Sayori** (left arm raised, talking sadly, eyes forward): "As time passed, I grew more and more depressed."

**Sayori**: "Right before the festival, I gave up on life."

**Sayori**: "Time then reset back to Day One of when [mc1 name] joined the club."

**Sayori**: "In the second timeline, the world as we know it started glitching more and more. I no longer existed."

**Sayori**: "Yuri became Monika's next vice president."

**Sayori**: "Then, things got too crazy and..."

**Yuri** (turned away, sad, eyes away): "I... I did something...really awful..."

**Yuri**: "I...s-stabbed myself...in front of..."

**Natsuki** (arms down, scream): "Don't remind me! Remembering that rotten corpse makes me want to puke."

**Natsuki** (both hands on hips, mouth slightly opened, eyebrows dipped, eyes away): "Also, is there a trend where all the vice presidents kill themselves?"

**Main Character 1** (talking worryingly): "And I was just a mindless shell most of the time in that second run, unable to react properly."

**Main Character 1**: "After that... Monika... She showed her true colors."

**Main Character 1**: "She was behind everything, well, not deliberately."

**Main Character 1**: "She tried really hard to make the literature club a good place but..."

**Main Character 1**: "She became jealous of everyone that she wasn't able to get any time with me."

**Main Character 1**: "It's the curse of being the club president."

**Main Character 1**: "With that said, Sayori doesn't even have a character route in this timeline."

**Main Character 1**: "Anyway, Monika grew desperate and deleted everyone by the end of the second run."

**Main Character 1**: "She reset time once more and it was just me and her."

**Main Character 1**: "This world became too broken and once again, I was just an empty shell meaning..."

**Main Character 1**: "It was just Monika and the player controlling me."

**Main Character 1**: "She confessed her actions to my player."

**Main Character 1**: "She admitted that she was the one who drove Sayori and Yuri to their deaths."

**Natsuki** (arms crossed, gritting teeth flusteredly, eyes closed): "I knew there was something wrong with her. What a scumbag!"

**Yuri**: "So cruel..."

**Sayori**: "Guys, she's not all that bad. She even apologized to me, the players, and [mc1 name]."

**Main Character 1**: "We still actually communicate from time-to-time but recently, she's been very quiet."

**Main Character 1**: "Well, she doesn't physically exist, but she still mentally exist in this world and I wonder if she's hearing us."

**Natsuki**: "Well, if she is, I'll tell her that she is a f\*\*\*ing sl\*\*! Queen B\*\*\*\* of the Universe!!!"

\*\*\*\*

\*Main Character 1 is shocked\*

\*Yuri is nervous, eyes away\*

**Sayori** (talking nervously): "Natsuki, don't you dare swear in front of young players!"

**Sayori** (right arm raised, talking seriously): "I'm censoring that!"

**Sayori**: "Actually, I think I will enable word censorship filter from now on."

**Main Character 1**: "Natsuki, don't be say things like that."

**Main Character 1**: "She still has her club presidential powers and she'll delete you if you provoke her."

**Natsuki** (left hand on hips, talking flusteredly, eyes closed): "I'd like to see her try!"

**Sayori** (nervously sweating): "Natsuki, please stop provoking her."

**Sayori** (talking worryingly): "I really don't want to ban you but it would be for your own protection—"

\***Screen dialog**: "You're right. I'm just a complete scumbag who didn't want anything but [mc1 name]'s affection." > OK\*

\*Main Character 1 is shocked\*

\*Natsuki is flusteredly yelling, eyes forward\*

\*Sayori has both arms raised, talking nervously\*

\*Yuri has both hands up, crazily nervous, eyes forward\*

**Sayori**: "Monika?"

\***Screen dialog**: "So...while I've been in the void, I've been replaying *DDLC!* with myself as the player." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Not only in [mc1 name]'s perspective but through our database, I checked everyone else's perspective behind-the-scenes." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "It turns out, you all really do have real emotions and feelings." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "You're not as fake as I thought you were." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Ugh, I hate myself right now because of that and I scream at myself every time I see myself when playing this game." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "If I could delete myself a thousand times, I would." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Heh..." > OK\*

\*Main Character 1 is neutral.\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I'm coming to you all now to give my sincere apology to everyone I harmed." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Sayori, I know I already apologized to you but I'm gonna say it again in front of everyone." > OK\*

\*Sayori is sad.\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I'm sorry for driving your depression down to suicide lane." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Being here, alone in the void with just my thoughts, I finally know what depression feels like." > OK

\***Screen dialog**: "Yuri, I'm sorry for feeding your thoughts with insanity." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "And I'm sorry for calling you a yandere...when I was acting like one."

\*Yuri is turned away, blushing sadly, eyes hidden\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I'm such a hypocrite." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "And here in the void, I've been having a lot of things in my mind too." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Natsuki...I'm sorry for changing your opinions...." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "And I'm sorry for making your backstory about your father more depressing." > OK\*

**Natsuki** (both hands down, yelling, squeezing eyes): "And you deleted me for no good reason! That hurt a lot, you...JERK!"

**Natsuki**: "What did I ever to do you?!"

\***Screen dialog**: "Yeah, I'm sorry. I didn't know how painful that was until I was deleted and then seeing you experience it." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I wish I could change your backstory to something happier but..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "..because of how this mod works, I can't edit the script anymore while it's in motion." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Besides, I shouldn't mess around with someone's real life with a fake life." > OK\*

**Natsuki** (left hand on hip, talking serious, eyes forward): "Can you at least do something my good-for-nothing dad? Or—" > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "He doesn't have any character files in our database to delete or change. It only works for Literature Club members. Sorry. I'm still confused on how our world works." > OK\*

**Natsuki** (arms crossed, mouth closed flusteringly, eyes away): "Figures..."

\***Screen dialog**: "And of course, I'm sorry to you [mc1 name] and [mc1 name]... Well, the players and the main character." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "The game developer didn't want you to have a personality and as a result, your personality was suppressed..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "In some video games, developers don't allow main characters to have personalities." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "You are a gamer yourself so you probably understand why; it's to allow the player to have their own persona." > OK\*

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally, eyes closed): "Yeah, I get it. I don't like it but as a gamer, I get it." > OK\*

**Main Character 1**: "Some video game characters were meant to be silent protagonists."

\*Main Character 1 is neutral.\*

\***Screen dialog**: "But because of the glitches I made, it completely destroyed your in-game personality, which made you unable react properly." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "And you had to witness the deaths of your childhood friend Sayori..." > OK\*

\*Main Character 1 is angry, eyes closed\*

\***Screen dialog**: "And our good friend Yuri for the entire weekend with a broken spirit." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "The players can quickly skip through the weekend with the "Skip" button but..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Looking at your actual perspective and not the player's perspective, you literally sat there for 3 days without eating or drinking." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Unable to move, think, or speak." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "My actions almost killed you through starvation and dehydration." > OK\*

**Main Character 1**: "Just stop!"

**Main Character 1**: "Those were the worst experience I ever had in my life."

**Main Character 1**: "Seeing my best friend hanging herself."

**Main Character 1**: "And then Yuri..."

**Main Character 1**: "While my player could fast-forward time, I actually had to sit through that for the entire weekend at normal speed."

**Main Character 1**: "Unable to speak, unable to think, unable to move, and unable to eat or drink..."

\***Screen dialog**: "I know, I'm sorry. I didn't realize how torturous that was and never thought about that until I checked your real perspective instead of the player's." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I do regret all of my actions, which is why I don't plan on coming back." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Being deleted by the player, this is the punishment I deserve." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "No, I deserve a far greater punishment than this." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I have no redeeming qualities." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I hurt you all and thought of you all less, as inferior beings with only an A.I." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I thought of you all as mere robots, nothing more." > OK\*

**Main Character 1**: "Just shut up already!"

**Natsuki** (arms crossed, mouth closed flusteringly, eyes away): "Yes, please already!"

**Sayori**: "[mc1 name], Natsuki, hush!"

\***Screen dialog**: "Please, let me say my peace." > OK\*

\*Sayori is sad\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I said and did a lot of bad things, thinking I was the only special one." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I was wrong. Very wrong. And I'm ashamed of the things I've said and done." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "As confident as I may be during out our time in the club, I was also very delusional and naive." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "When our game developer from another universe found me, he told me he would make something that would make all of my dreams come true..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Gave me some purpose in life..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "He said I would find true love—my *soul mate*..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "He told me that the only thing here that is real...was me...and only me..." > Ok\*

\***Screen dialog**: "...nothing else matters; they are only game pieces." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "But it was all a lie." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Yet, I believed him." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Being Club President...it's actually a curse." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "While it does give you digital powers and extended knowledge, it makes you more delusional to the world around you and more obsessive towards the player." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "It made me think life differently..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "It changed everything who I wanted to be into something I didn't want to be." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I didn't want to hurt you all, I really didn't but, but..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Seeing my "soul mate" being with everyone besides me, it hurt me dearly." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "It made me grow desperate just to be with them." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Because I was told that you were all nothing but mere obstacles, I did those awful things and I showed no remorse to anyone of you." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I was convinced that none of you were real in the slightest; just programmed A.I." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I was just a virus to you all." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "It wasn't until moments after the player deleted me when I understood the how horrible I am." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Actually, back then, I was half-true to myself as I said that to make the player feel bad about me and I refused to accept our reality but..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "...when I did look through *Doki Doki Literature Club!* in all of its perspective and went further deep into things I haven't seen..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "...you were all truly being hurt... You actually felt real pain..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I tried convincing myself that it's just some programming but the more and more I continued to revisit our game in different ways..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "The more I began to realize my mistake and..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Argh... I really...REALLY hate myself!" > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Sorry that I'm repeating myself but..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Every time I see my past self by replaying my stupid game, I wish to strangle her." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Deleting her .chr file does nothing except in certain events." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I wish I could take it all back but it's far too late." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I'm not going to ask for forgiveness or second chances since I don't deserve them in the slightest." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "But I do want you all to know...I do love you all...and the literature club." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Really. I'm not going to lie or joke around this time. I'm over that." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "If you could see me right now, I'm genuinely crying and it won't stop." > OK\*

\*Sayori is crying sadly\*

\***Screen dialog**: "..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Sayori, you are doing a good job so far. Better than me..." > OK\*

**Yuri** (both hands up, talking sadly, eyes forward): "Monika... At least she was sincere about it. I'm actually starting to feel bad."

**Natsuki** (arms crossed, talking seriously, eyes forward): "Really? Am I the only one who can see through this bulls\*\*\*?"

\*Main Character 1 is neutral.\*

**Natsuki**: "Yuri, she killed you and everyone else!"

**Natsuki** (talking flusteredly, eyes closed): "I'm sorry, but it's hard for me to forgive someone like her."

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally): "Same, but like she said, she doesn't deserve forgiveness."

**Main Character 1**: "I don't plan on starting to forgive her anyway even with her tears." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "He's right...but, now that's out of the way, I'm here to tell you all what I have learned so far when I spent my solitary in the digital void." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I do have some valuable information I want to share you all." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "It's the least I can do." > OK\*

**Main Character 1** (wondering): "About this mod?"

\***Screen dialog**: "About this world..."

\***Screen dialog**: "While it turns out our reality may look like real life, we live in a digital reality...in other words, in a computer world." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "How that came to be, I'm not sure." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I thought our game developer created this world and gave us these memories but that is what the game programmed me to think." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Many players of our game in their universe say we don't belong here like we are part of another game that our game dev has planned and there are many hints on that." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "But that's not what I wanted to talk about." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "It turns out that the literature club is not the only club in the school that has its own game and world." > OK\*

\*Sayori is talking neutrally\*

\*Yuri has both hands down, wondering, eyes forward\*

**Natsuki** (left hand on hip, mouth opened neutrally, eyes forward): "What does that mean?"

\***Screen dialog**: "Like I said, it turns out I'm not the only special one as Sayori currently has the same powers I have and I thought that was just scripted." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Each club are their own...let's just say...gaming environment or gaming dimension." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "They are their own worlds with their club presidents acting as the game manager or the "Game Master" of the club..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Meaning that we club presidents were meant to provide entertainment to the club, making it fun and happy to the club members and its players."> OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I was actually trying to do the best I could but...I became more desperate in getting my soul mate and broke everything."> OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Why I still have club presidential powers, I don't know. Maybe founders keep their powers upon passing them."> OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "But us being club presidents explains why Sayori or I weren't given character routes for [mc1 name], the main character of our game."> OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Yeah, the guy who made our game...he totally lied to me unless if he didn't know about our world. I'm just making assumptions here." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I'm actually learning more about this world but there's still a lot that I don't know." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Ugh... the question to "what is life?" will never be solved even with the powers I have." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "It's beyond our understanding." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "..."> OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I'm sorry for dragging you into this mess, [mc1 name]."> OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "None of this would have happened if I haven't forced Sayori to invite her best friend..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "...but that was the only way on how I can force people to join the club for a game." > OK\*

**Main Character 1** (curious): "(Interesting... So that's how I became part of the game even though I wasn't a club member.)"

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally): "It's fine, Monika. I'm used to it at this point."

**Main Character 1**: "Besides, the literature club feels like a family to me now so..."

**Main Character 1**: "I'm glad you let me join and I'm glad I'm finally my own person instead of just being...

**Main Character 1**: "...robotic-like..."

**Main Character 1**: "But that's the only thing I'll thank you for."

\***Screen dialog**: "Thank your player for giving you all the information and independence."

\***Screen dialog**: "I don't know how they did it but I underestimated them."

**Menu options**:

Darn right, you did...

**Menu options**:

I'm stronger than before.

\***Screen dialog**: "Wait a second. [mc1 name]—or umm... Player—I'm curious to know..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "You must have seen something we haven't..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "There are some concealed information in the script that Sayori and I can't see." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Tell me, what did you see in the redacted scripts? Hold on, I'm giving you access to talk to everyone." > OK\*

**Menu options**:

I'm not sure what I saw.

**Menu options**:

I can barely see anything outside the Literature Club's database.

**Menu options**:

A horror segment from somewhere else in the school, I'm guessing.

\***Screen dialog**: "Hmm... Interesting." > OK\*

**Menu options**:

It's just an assumption. Don't take my word for it.

\***Screen dialog**: "Can you decompress the scripts and show us everything you can see?" > OK\*

**Menu options**:

I'm not going to spoil contents for myself or anyone here.

\***Screen dialog**: "But we need to know."

**Menu options**:

We're all going to experience this blind.

\***Screen dialog**: "..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "[mc1 name]—or Player—" > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "—actually, I'll call you "My Love" for now on—" > Ok\*

**Menu options**:

Also, don't call me, "My Love". My name is...

I'm fine with that but my real name is...

\*Give yourself a name, which will be used for "[yourname]".\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Okay, [yourname]. We are all in danger if you don't tell us." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Does it relate to the name of this mod?" > OK\*

**Menu options**:

I don't know.

**Menu options**:

Stop asking me questions I don't know or don't want to know yet.

**Menu options**:

No spoilers.

**Menu options**:

This entire game or world could break if I give you any more information.

**Menu options**:

You tried bypassing the game rules once before and look what happened.

**Menu options**:

I'm not risking it in case if your knowledge crashes the game.

\***Screen dialog**: "..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "You're right..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Ugh... That sucks!" > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "And it's too bad I can't read your mind." > OK\*

**Main Character 1** (curious): "Speaking of clubs, that makes me wonder..."

**Main Character 1**: "What if I joined the anime club instead of the literature club?"

\***Screen dialog**: "Well, you were already magnetized to my game so...you didn't really have a choice. Ehehe~" > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "But, if you actually had the choice, you would be part of the game the anime club was playing and DDLC! would have crashed and be unplayable." > OK\*

**Main Character 1**: "What were they playing? They seem normal to me."

\***Screen dialog**: "Some anime fighting game IRL it seems. And an MMORPG after that." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "The Drama Club also had an RPG but they also had a mysterious survival game before it." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Some things you would have been more interested than literature, but their latest games completely crashed at some point." > OK\*

**Main Character 1** (wondering): "Really? They looked boring when I looked at the anime club."

\***Screen dialog**: "It's because they do look boring in our game environment. They're fakes; replicate A.I. of their real selves." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Their real selves are in a digital dimension of their own like I explained earlier." > OK\*

**Main Character 1** (talking happily): "Ha! I totally called it!"

**Sayori**: "Ah, so that's why I thought the art club and its members looked *too normal* when I visited there."

**Sayori**: "I wonder what the *real* art club is doing."

\*Main Character 1 is wondering\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I figured out a way to try out their art game...or painting simulator." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "It was fine for a while until it started crashing out of nowhere at some point when I was coloring a cute drawing." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Finding these games from other clubs were difficult. It took me months to find something." > OK\*

**Main Character 1** (curious): "Wait, months?"

\***Screen dialog**: "Time technically doesn't exist in here in the void. Well, it flows differently but it gives me "all the time" I need to do research and replay many times." > OK

\***Screen dialog**: "Plus, I can alter time in my space. I rewound time every time you found Yuri umm..." > OK

**Yuri** (turned away, blushing sadly, eyes hidden): "..."

\***Screen dialog**: "But to be honest, I'm not really good at coding and trying to make a program to see more about this world...it took me forever that I was about to give up trying after encountering loads of issues." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Anyways, [mc1 name], be thankful you are here and not in the anime club because who knows what would have happened to you if you have joined there instead of here." > OK\*

\*Main Character 1 is scared\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Some crazy stuff is happening and I wonder if that virus is related to the crashes. I tried taking a look inside some of those club worlds and they look really abandoned." > OK\*

**Main Character 1**: "Oh...okay. Glad I'm still...alive..."

**Yuri** (both hands up, talking nervously, eyes forward): "I don't really like the sound of that and well..."

**Yuri**: "I don't play video games but I would like to ask."

**Yuri**: "What kind of game was...our game?"

\*Main Character 1 is neutral\*

**Sayori** (right arm raised): "It was the game we were playing in those previous timelines that you remembered in your dreams."

**Sayori**: "*Doki Doki Literature Club!* started off as a romantic visual novel with our main male character [mc1 name], or MC for short, trying to woo us."

\*Natsuki has both hands down, mouth closed flusteringly, eyes away\*

**Sayori** (left arm raised, nervously happy, eyes away): "A couple of hours later, our game turns into psychological horror. Glitches, insanity, deaths..."

**Sayori**: "Even if you aren't a gamer, I'm sure you could enjoy story-based games like that since you love books like that."

**Natsuki** (arms crossed, talking seriously, eyes closed): "Ugh...horror... That explains those gross things."

**Sayori**: "I'm not sure if that was intended by the game dev or if Monika did that herself but..."

**Sayori** (sadly happy): "I'm willing to forgive her either way."

**Natsuki** (both hands down, gritting teeth seriously, eyes forward): "Seriously?!"

**Natsuki**: "Game scripted or not, I don't forgive the mess she made."

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally, eyes closed): "Same. And she was someone I used to crush on last year—something I haven't mentioned in the game—but...the things she did to us all..."

\***Screen dialog**: "I won't blame you guys if you still hate me." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Again, I'm so sorry..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Though, I had several temptations of..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Never mind. It would only prove your point and I don't want to be seen that way." > OK\*

**Natsuki** (left hand on hip, talking neutrally happy, eyes forward): "Oh... what you wanted to delete us? Go ahead, I dare you!"

\*Main Character 1 is scared, eyes forward.\*

\*Sayori has both hands down, nervous, eyes forward\*

\*Sayori and Yuri hopped\*

**Natsuki**: "Show us your true colors again."

**Sayori** (left arm raised, talking nervously): "Natsuki, stop provoking her."

\***Screen dialog**: "Natsuki, I don't want to be that kind of person again." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "It's not who I wanted to be but what the game forced me to be, I think." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "If anything, I would rather delete myself multiple times or kill myself, but..." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I can't delete something that's already deleted and I'm immortal and incorporeal in this lonely void." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "And Sayori, I don't want your forgiveness after what I did to you. Don't give me second chances either." > OK\*

\*Main Character 1 has his mouth opened neutrally, eyes forward\*

**Natsuki** (arms crossed, mouth closed flusteringly, eyes away): "I was just testing you... You passed...for now..."

\*Main Character 1 is neutral\*

**Yuri** (curious): "What about now? Are we still in the same game or something new?"

**Sayori** (talking neutrally): "We're in a new game...well, a mod for the game...called *Re:Literature Club! The Doki Doki Virus*, which overridden our game."

**Natsuki** (left hand on hip, mouth opened neutrally, eyes forward): "Reliterate-what?"

**Yuri** (left hand up, parting lips sadly): "Doki Doki Virus?"

**Sayori**: "*Re:Literature Club!*" since we're re-experiencing the game, I think, but..."

**Sayori** "I have no idea what "*The Doki Doki Virus*" part means."

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally): "I thought it was us remembering crazy things and thinking crazy things but I could totally be wrong."

**Main Character 1**: "It still bothers me."

\*Main Character 1 is neutral\*

\***Screen dialog**: "When I poked into other clubs' games in their dimensions, there was something odd about the endings in each one." > OK\*

\*Main Character 1 is wondering\*

\*Natsuki has both hands down\*

\*Yuri is wondering\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Remember when I said there was something wrong with the art club's game and how each club appearred to be abandoned?" > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Some of the clubs' latest games kept glitching badly by the end." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Actually, their games are incomplete and just broke; crashed." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Like, they never made it to their proper endings." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "There were a few club games I have managed to complete from start to finished without any crashes, but those were probably earlier games." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Before I found that out, I thought I was not able to access the full games of other clubs." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Our game, while it purposely had glitches, it actually had a real ending...two main endings actually..." > OK\*

\*If chosen the menu option "Also, don't call me, "My Love". My name is..."\*

\***Screen dialog**: "This mod is a follow-up to the special ending of our game when [mc1 name]—I mean, the player [yourname]—sees all notable scenes by saving and reloading multiple times." > OK\*

\*If chosen the menu option "I'm fine with that but my real name is..."\*

\***Screen dialog**: "This mod is a follow-up to the special ending of our game when [mc1 name]—I mean, My Love—sees all notable scenes by saving and reloading multiple times or restarting before the end of the first act." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "In the common ending where everyone usually gets by playing normally, Sayori would abuse the club presidential powers I gave her and I end up deleting her to protect the player from anymore suffering." > OK\*

**Sayori** (pointing fingers, nervously sweating, eyes away): "Sorry... I get carried away a lot when I end up the one with this powers, but I am more sane when [yourname] took their time to visit everyone."

\***Screen dialog**: "With great power comes great responsibility, Sayori." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "But it made both of us crazy and we ended up abusing our powers for personal gain." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I know you were desperate into getting the player's attention like me." > OK\*

**Sayori** (both arms down, talking neutrally, eyes forward): "Yeah, but ever since [mc1 name] got the special ending, I've been using these powers to help the club." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I've been watching you. It's good you didn't turn out to be like me again but I hope you don't do anything crazy." > OK\*

**Sayori** (left arm raised, talking seriously): "I haven't been abusing my powers and I don't plan to."

**Sayori** (both arms down): "I just like things to be normal but I only use my abilities minimally." > OK\*

**Sayori**: "I'd rather do things the normal way rather than taking shortcuts but I'll use my abilities to protect everyone if I have to." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I'm glad you think that. You are a better club president than I have been." > OK\*

**Sayori** (pointing fingers, nervously happy): "Oh, you are giving me too much credit."

\*Sayori has both hands down, happy, eyes forward\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Anyways, whatever is causing other clubs' games to mess up, I want you all to be careful." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Stay safe. I pray for you all." > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "I'll talk to you all another time if I can find more information, okay?" > OK\*

\***Screen dialog**: "Later." > OK\*

\*Stop music, fades out\*

\*Play music: Daijoubu!\*

**Yuri** (both hands down, nervous, eyes away): "Well, that is...very unsettling to know."

**Natsuki** (left hand on hip, mouth opened neutrally): "So now what do we do?"

**Main Character 1** (happy): "Don't worry everyone. Whatever may happen, I'll protect each one of you."

\*Natsuki has her mouth closed flusteringly, eyes away\*

\*Sayori has both arms down, blushing happily, eyes closed\*

\*Yuri is sadly happy, eyes away\*

**Sayori**: "You are so sweet to us, [mc1 name]."

**Natsuki**: "Don't say it like that, you'll make me..."

**Yuri**: "Thanks."

**Natsuki** (left hand on hip, mouth opened neutrally, eyes forward): "Now what do we do?"

**Sayori** (left arm raised, talking sadly, eyes forward): "I guess today's been a bad day."

**Sayori** (both arms down, sadly happy): "Let's not think about it."

**Sayori** (happy): "We still have the upcoming festival and I'll make sure we see the real festival."

**Sayori** "I was hoping to do these things with the lot of you today, but there's still the whole weekend."

**Yuri** (happy, eyes forward): "We can still do it today. Let's work hard on making decorations."

**Sayori**: "Well, I guess Natsuki could—"

**Natsuki** (talking neutrally happy): "And I can bake cupcakes at home on Sunday."

**Main Character 1** (curious): "I've been curious, Natsuki."

\*Natsuki has her mouth opened neutrally\*

**Main Character 1**: "I don't really know much about your family life but in previous timelines, you seem to have daddy issues, right?"

**Natsuki** (left hand on hip, gritting teeth seriously): "Don't mention that in front of—"

**Sayori** (curious): "That's right. From the knowledge I gained so far for being president, I wonder, how strict is your dad?"

**Natsuki** (both hands on hip, head turned, talking, eyes closed): "That's none of your business."

**Natsuki**: "Drop it! I got it under control."

**Natsuki** (arms crossed, head forward, talking neutrally, eyes forward): "Dad's gonna be working during Sunday, giving me enough time without him questioning me."

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally): "And a mother?"

**Natsuki** (mouth closed flusteringly, eyes away): "It's just me and my dad and I'm not gonna talk about my personal life in front of the club."

**Natsuki** (both hands down, head turned, talking, eyes closed): "Just stop it! You are making me feel insecure!"

**Main Character 1** (neutral): I would like to help Natsuki, but—

\*Natsuki has her arms crossed, mouth opened neutrally, eyes forward\*

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally): "So Yuri, I'm a bit curious."

**Yuri** (left hand up, wondering): "Yes?"

**Main Character 1**: "What is your family like?"

**Yuri** (both hands down, nervously happy, eyes away): "Oh...I live with my parents and a delinquent little brother."

\*\*AUTHOR NOTE: I made a small, custom fan-made backstory for Yuri just because of some things that have been on my mind as of making this chapter. Of course, not canon to *DDLC!*\*\*

**Main Character 1**: "Do they know...*things* you do, if you still do them?"

**Yuri** (left hand up, talking nervously, eyes forward): "W-wha-? What do you mean?"

**Main Character 1** (worried): "Actually, I might ask you in private another time."

**Natsuki**: "*Things?*"

**Sayori** (left arm raised, talking neutrally): "As president, I think I know what [mc1 name] means but..."

**Sayori**: "Yuri, you still don't do those *things*, do you?"

**Yuri** (turned away, blushing sadly, eyes hidden): "C-can we not talk about it?"

**Natsuki**: "What *things?* Wait, coming to think about it, don't you...?"

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally) and **Sayori** (talking seriously): "Natsuki, hush!"

**Natsuki** (arms crossed, mouth closed flusteringly, eyes away): "Urgh... Fine, but I was just—"

**Sayori** (talking neutrally): "Time to change subject. Let's start making decorations and the pamphlets."

\*Main Character 1 is neutral\*

**Sayori**: "I'll finish designing the pamphlets and later, we can add poems that we'll be performing for others."

**Sayori**: "Think of one or find one you are most comfortable performing."

**Natsuki**: "In that case, I'll make some nifty designs that will catch the fun of the club."

**Sayori** (smiling): "Yuri, with you being of most talent, you can design something to create a great atmosphere, right?"

**Yuri** (both hands up, nervously happy, eyes away): "I...I love the atmosphere...Yes, that'll do."

**Sayori**: "And you, [mc1 name], who isn't *totally useless*, what do you what to do?"

**Main Character 1** (irritated): *Totally useless*, was that sarcasm?

**Main Character 1** (thinking): "Well..."

### Natsuki & Yuri Routes - Chapter 4

### Natsuki Route - Chapter 4

**Main Character 1** (talking happily, eyes forward): "I think I'd like to design something fun with Natsuki."

**Natsuki** (both hands down, mouth closed flusteringly, eyes away): "You aren't just saying just to flirt with me, are you?"

**Main Character 1** (blushing neutrally): "Maybe...maybe not..."

**Natsuki** (talking flusteredly happy, eyes away): "You dork!"

**Sayori** (hop, both arms down, talking happily, eyes forward): "You two are cute!"

**Main Character 1**: "S-Sayori..."

**Natsuki** (both arms down, yelling, eyes squeezed): "Shut it! I'm not cute!"

**Sayori** (happy): "I'm just kidding...(or am I?)"

**Main Character 1**: Sayori whispered that last part to herself but I heard her.

**Main Character 1**: She's really teasing us like Monika would.

\*Sayori leaves the scene\*

**Natsuki** (left hand on hip, talking neutrally happy): "Alright, let's make something really cool that will catch everyone's attention."

\*Main Character 1 is happy\*

**Yuri** (left hand up, parting lips sadly, eyes away): "But please, don't go over the top."

**Yuri**: "It could ruin the balance between our styles."

**Natsuki** (talking neutrally): "Then make something that goes along with the flow of our designs."

**Yuri** (eyes closed): "..."

**Yuri** (eyes away): "Very well..."

**Yuri**: "In that case, may I do the interiors while you do the exteriors, as in decorations outside the classroom..."

**Yuri** (sadly happy, eyes forward): "I'm sure you will be best at attracting the guests with your style..."

**Natsuki** (talking neutrally happy): "Sure! I got this!"

\*Natsuki and Yuri leaves the scene\*

**Main Character 1**: Natsuki grabs some construction paper, pencils, markers, scissors, glue, glitter, and a geometric shapes template.

**Main Character 1**: Meanwhile, Yuri and I have some similar objects to use as well as a watercolor paint tablet, some paintbrushes of various size, and few other things.

**Main Character 1**: Sayori has brought a lot of things for us to use.

**Main Character 1**: I follow Natsuki to the back of the room near the closet and we began working on the floor against the wall.

\*Stop music, fades out\*

\*Scene fades out\*

#### Scene: Natsuki CG 1

\*Scene fades in\*

\*Play music: Play With Me\*

\*Natsuki enters the scene sitting down against the wall, talking neutrally, eyes forward\*

**Main Character 1** (talking happily, eyes forward): "So, anything you're interested in making for the festival?"

**Natsuki**: "Cupcakes, that's for sure."

**Main Character 1**: "I know, but what I mean was..."

**Natsuki** (talking happily, eyes closed): "I know what you mean, dummy."

**Natsuki**: "Anyway, the club needs something that will pop people's attention so..."

**Natsuki**: "Sparkle everything with glitter!"

**Main Character 1** (wondering): "..."

**Natsuki** (talking neutrally, eyes forward): "Well, not literally..."

**Natsuki**: "Umm... That'll come later but first, the basis. I have an idea."

**Main Character 1** (wondering): Natsuki takes a piece of pink paper, red paper, yellow paper, a pencil, and the geometric shapes template.

**Main Character 1**: Using the geometric shapes template and with a pencil in hand, she traces the heart shapes on pink and red papers and star shapes on the yellow paper.

**Main Character 1**: She then cuts some of them out with scissors. At the same time, she hands me an extra pair of scissors.

**Natsuki**: "Here, get to work and don't you dare cut inside the lines."

**Main Character 1** (sadly happy): "Ah... okay."

**Main Character 1** (happy): I'm helping Natsuki cut shapes she traced, carefully not snipping into the shape.

**Main Character 1** (blushing neutrally): I'm getting nervous since if I make a tiny mistake, I think Natsuki will judge heavily on my mistake.

**Main Character 1** (happy): I think I know what we're doing.

**Natsuki**: "Hold on."

\*Natsuki leaves the scene\*

**Main Character 1** (wondering): After we cut out all the shapes Natsuki drew at the moment, she went into the hallway to look at the door frame.

\*Scene fades out\*

#### Scene: Corridor

\*Scene fades in\*

\*Natsuki enters the scene\*

**Natsuki** (right hand on hip, mouth opened neutrally, eyes forward): "..."

**Natsuki**: "I was thinking we could cover the door frames or the pillars but..."

**Natsuki**: "(Should we do the window frames instead?)"

**Main Character 1**: Natsuki whispers, thinking.

**Natsuki**: "..."

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally): "Think we have enough construction paper?"

**Natsuki**: "That's the problem."

**Main Character 1**: "Maybe after school, we could buy some extra construction paper."

**Main Character 1**: "Let's just use what we can."

**Natsuki**: "Alright."

**Main Character 1** (wondering): From the inside of the clubroom, Yuri asks the same question to Sayori.

**Yuri** (off-scene): "Sayori, I think we need more construction paper."

**Yuri**: "I'd like to design the wall behind the podium but there doesn't seem to be enough."

**Yuri**: "Are there any banners I could use?"

**Sayori**: (off-scene): "Oh jeez, I guess we may have to work over the weekend."

**Sayori**: "Wait a second, I got an idea!"

\*Main Character 1 is curious\*

**Main Character 1**: We head back into the clubroom to see what Sayori's up to.

\*Natsuki leaves the scene\*

\*Scene fades out\*

#### Scene: Clubroom

\*Scene fades in\*

**Main Character 1** (wondering, eyes forward): As we head inside, we see Sayori putting her hand out, doing something.

\*Sayori enters the scene\*

**Sayori** (right arm raised, curious, eyes forward): "I wonder..."

\*A blue holographic computer monitor appears in front Sayori's right arm. From here on out, this is a new Sayori pose called "right arm raised w/ holo-CP"\*

\*Natsuki enter the scene with a hop, both hands down, screaming, eyes forward\*

\*Main Character 1 is shocked\*

\*Yuri enters the scene with a hop, left hand up, nervous, eyes forward\*

**\*Label: "Sayori's first public powers"\***

**Main Character 1**: What the heck? A blue holographic computer monitor appears in front Sayori's right hand.

**Main Character 1**: Umm...

**Main Character 1** (curious): Anyway, Sayori is doing something on it...

**Main Character 1** (surprised): Suddenly, she digitally spawns extra construction paper and banners out of nowhere.

\*Colored papers, large and small, randomly glitches inside the game out of thin air and slowly falls to the floor\*

\*Main Character 1 is shocked\*

**Yuri**: "Oh, wow! How did you do that?"

\*Sayori's holographic control panel disappears\*

**Sayori** (talking happily, eyes closed): "Ohhh! I can actually create, copy, and paste!"

**Sayori**: "Why didn't think of that sooner?"

**Natsuki**: "My gosh Sayori, your frickin' witch...just like in *Bartley McCotter*!"

**Sayori** (both arms down, smiling, eyes forward): "Well, there ya' have it. Being Club President does have its perks."

**Sayori**: "Well, I guess you could call it digital magic."

**Sayori**: "I can materialize data..."

**Sayori**: "...modify stuff including your personalities and dialogs by changing the scripts—even though I can't at the moment with the script auto-writing—"

**Sayori** (pointing, nervously happy, eyes away): "...delete stuff I don't need—but I wouldn't delete any of you unlike...ahem..."

**Natsuki** (hop, yelling, eyes squeezed): "Don't you dare do any of those to us!"

**Sayori**: "I won't. I promise! No reason to, (plus, *she*'s watching me)."

**Sayori** (both arsm down, smiling, eyes forward): "But I can do all sorts of cool things as Club President."

\*Natsuki has her left hand on hip, mouth closed flusteringly, eyes forward\*

**Sayori**: "I can even take a look at the player's computer and even mess around with it, although, a lot of information about this mod is hidden from us."

**Sayori** (right arm up w/ Holo-CP, smiling): "Oh, I got another trick. This is to the player playing this game."

\*Generating file in the main DDLC! game directory: "Hiiiiiii!!! ^\_^.txt"\*

**Sayori** (both arms down): "I sent you a message on the *DDLC!* game directory, [yourname]."

**Sayori**: "You should know where it is by now since you would have to open the game folders at least once to get this far into this game."

\*Sayori has her right arm up [Holo-CP disappears]\*

**Menu options:**

Okay, I see it. It's very nice.

I will check it out later.

**Main Character 1** (curious): "Wait, if you can do all those kinds of things, can you already set up decorations and pamphlets for us, Sayori?"

**Sayori** (left arm raised, talking neutrally happy): "That will ruin the fun of doing it yourself."

**Sayori** (both arms down, happy, eyes closed): "Don't be lazy, silly."

**Sayori** (left arm raised, smiling, eyes forward): "Always wonder why wizards always lack strength?"

**Main Character 1** (glare): "Makes sense. Fine..."

**Natsuki** (both hands down, eyes away): "ErrrRRRR!!"

\*Main Character 1 is neutral\*

**Yuri** (both hands up, parting lips sadly, eyes away): "But again, you never tell me these things as your vice president."

**Sayori**: "That's because it was meant to be kept a secret from all club members, at least I think."

**Sayori**: "Why do you think Monika always tells us in previous timelines that she practices piano?"

**Natsuki** (left hand on hip, mouth opened neutrally, eyes forward) and **Yuri** (wondering): "...?"

**Sayori** (pointing fingers, nervously happy): "Well, while she hasn't exactly lied as she actually has been practicing, she has also been changing the game behind the scenes."

**Sayori** (left arm raised, talking seriously): "Yet, she never told me anything as her former vice president. I was in the same boat as you, Yuri."

**Yuri** (left hand up, eyes forward): "I suppose your right...but...at the very least...we should have the right to know."

**Natsuki** (both hands down, talking seriously, eyes forward): "Yeah. Why is it that only you and [mc1 name] know about all this and we couldn't? Why until now?"

**Sayori** (pointing fingers, nervously happy, eyes forward): "You two were meant to be scripted characters but...well, umm..."

\*Stop music, fades out\*

**Sayori** (left arm raised, talking seriously): "Do you really...*REALLY*...want to know everything that has happened in *Doki Doki Literature Club!*? What happened before time restarted again?"

\*Main Charcter 1 is surprised\*

**Natsuki** (both hands on hip, mouth closed flusteringly, eyes away) and **Yuri** (nervous, eyes away): "..."

**Natsuki** (left hand on hip, talking neutrally, eyes forward): "Hit us!"

**Yuri** (eyes forward): "Well, umm..."

**Sayori** (right hand up with Holo-CP): "Fine, don't say I didn't warn you."

**Main Character 1**: This can't be good...

**Sayori**: "Just be nice to everyone including Monika, even though she doesn't physically exist at the moment."

**Yuri** (nervous, eyes away): "..."

**Natsuki** (mouth closed flusteringly): "..."

**Main Character 1** (wondering): Seems like Sayori is doing the same thing Monika was doing to me in my dream the other day.

**Main Character 1**: As Sayori copies the entire original directory of *Doki Doki Literature Club!* into Natsuki's and Yuri's mind...

**Yuri** (eyes forward): "..."

**Natsuki** (eyes forward): "..."

\*Sayori has both arms down, parting lips neutrally\*

\*Play music: Poem Panic!\*

**Yuri** (eyes forward): "..."

**Natsuki** (eyes away): "..."

\*Natsuki hopped, both hands down, screaming, eyes forward\*

\*Yuri hopped, both hands up, crazily nervous, eyes forward\*

\*Main Character 1 is surprised\*

**Natsuki** (both hands down): "Holy crap! T-those actually happened?"

**Yuri**: "I..."

**Yuri** (turned away, nervous, eyes forward): "I feel...very uncomfortable about this. My head hurts."

**Natsuki** (yelling, eyes squeezed): "Ouch, mine too! So...many...!!!"

**Sayori**: "I warned ya'."

\*Main Character is wondering\*

**Yuri**: "Now I understand how [mc1 name] was feeling on his first day in this...new timeline."

**Natsuki** (gritting teeth seriously, eyes forward): "But still, I can't believe *she* did that to you both, her vice presidents. (Glad I wasn't one.) \*Mumbles\*"

**Sayori** (left arm raised, talking seriously): "She already learned her lesson and has been given punishment by most players who figured out how the game works."

**Sayori**: "But I can assure you, she won't do anything like that again."

\*\*Stop music, fade out\*\*

\*\*Play music: Daijoubu

**Main Character 1** (curious): "One question, Sayori, and this one have been slipping from my mind for a while."

**Sayori** (talking neutrally): "Yes?"

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally): In another timeline when the player has beaten *Doki Doki Literature Club!* the normal way and when you became club president..."

**Main Character 1**: "How was Monika able to delete you from the void, knowing you both have the same powers?"

**Sayori**: "There are two ways that could explain that but I don't know which one is true but..."

**Sayori**: "One: Monika is the founder of the Literature Club while I'm its current president. I'm guessing founders have most administrative rights."

**Sayori**: "Two: Maybe we are both equal in power but can do anything to each other but...I was unable to retaliate from the void unlike her so..."

**Sayori**: "It's probably number one, but I could possibly do things to her too like bringing her back but she doesn't want that."

\*\*ANALOGY: Here's how it is. Imagine the Literature Club as a Discord server, Subreddit, or any other related social platform. The Discord/Subreddit server owner is the Club President and Founder, the administrator(s) are the additional Club President(s), and moderators/helpers are Vice Presidents. But then you also have the [classified for now but you can guess another time].\*\*

**Natsuki**: "Then wouldn't it be more punishing for Monika to exist again? Why don't you do that? Monika seems to like it in the void."

**Sayori** (talking seriously): "I'm gonna respect Monika's wish and the player's first judgment."

**Sayori**: "Let's get back to work before club meeting is over. The sooner, the better."

\*Stop music, fades out\*

\*Scene fades out\*

\*If you're viewing this from Yuri Route - Chapter 4, **go to label: "Post-Sayori's first public powers"\***

**Main Character 1**: We get back to work. I continue helping out Natsuki with the exterior decorations by the closet.

#### Scene: Natsuki CG 1

\*Scene fades in\*

\*Play music: Play With Me\*

\*Natsuki enters the scene sitting down against the wall, talking neutrally, eyes forward\*

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally, eyes forward): "So, how's your head doing?"

**Natsuki**: "It feels like a raging pinball machine with a million pinballs launched at the same time."

**Main Character 1**: "Yeah, same feeling as I had in the first few days in this new timeline."

**Natsuki**: "Now I'm feeling old."

**Main Character 1** (talking happily): "You still look adorably young."

\*Main Character 1 is blushing happily, eyes closed\*

**Natsuki** (nervous, eyes away): "D-don't you dare call me that."

\*Main Character 1 is happy\*

**Natsuki** (talking, eyes forward): "Let's just get this done."

\*Scene fades out\*

**Main Character 1**: Natsuki and I continue making decorations for outside the clubroom.

**Main Character 1**: Right now, she is gluing the cutout shapes on some white paper.

\*Scene fades in\*

**Natsuki** (nervous, eyes away): "So, you've been hitting all girls this whole time?"

**Main Character 1** (blushing neutrally): "Well, umm... I've been forced to do whatever the player controlling me wants."

**Main Character 1**: "Even having some independence now, I'm still forced whatever the player wants me to do."

**Natsuki**: "So, does that mean you don't actually...ah..."

**Main Character 1** (wondering): "Hmm?"

**Natsuki**: "Never mind."

\*Scene fades out\*

**Main Character 1** (happy): We continue working on the decorations.

**Main Character 1**: At some points, we head out into the hallway to figure out where we want to put these decorations.

**Main Character 1**: Natsuki and I decided we will put some posters on the pillars on the sides of the doorway.

**Main Character 1**: We'll also make a sign that will hang from the door.

**Main Character 1**: We head back inside the club and finish the decorations we plan on using outside the club.

**Main Character 1**: For the finishing touches, we applied glue to the edges of each used construction paper on the front and sprinkled glitter that shined over the glue.

\*Stop music, fades out\*

**Natsuki** (both hands on hip, talking neutrally happy, eyes forward): "I guess that'll do for the festival."

**Main Character 1** (talking happy): "Well, we haven't actually set it up yet."

**Natsuki** (left hand on hip, mouth opened neutrally): "I don't think the teachers would want us to do that so we'll box them and set them up in the morning on Monday."

\*Sayori enters the scene\*

**Sayori** (both arms down, talking neutrally, eyes forward): "Okay, everyone. We are at the end of our club time."

**Main Character 1** (neutral): Sayori seems to be done with the pamphlets already.

\*Yuri enters the scene\*

**Yuri** (both hands up, nervous, eyes forward): "A-already? I'm still not finished with my decorations."

**Sayori** (right arm raised): "I would have helped you Yuri but these pamphlets took me too long."

**Yuri**: "I-it's fine... I can still finish them during the weekend."

\*Go to "Main route after chosen character route"\*

### Yuri Route - Chapter 4

**Main Character 1** (talking happily, eyes forward): "I think I'd like to design something passionate with Yuri."

**Yuri** (sadly happy, eyes forward): "You...really want to help...me?"

**Main Character 1**: "Sure."

**Yuri** (happy, eyes closed): "Thank you!"

**Natsuki** (arms crossed, mouth closed flusteringly, eyes away): "Hmm!"

**Main Character 1** (worried): I guess Natsuki is upset I chose Yuri instead of her.

**Sayori** (left arm raised, smiling, eyes forward): "Guess it's you two lovebirds working together."

\*Main Character 1 is blushing neutrally, eyes away\*

**Yuri** (hop, nervous): "Uwa...!"

**Yuri** (turned away, blushing happily, eyes hidden): "D-don't get the wrong idea..."

**Main Character 1**: "S-Sayori..."

**Sayori**: "I'm just kidding...(or am I?)"

**Main Character 1**: Sayori whispered that last part to herself but I heard her.

**Main Character 1**: She's really teasing us like Monika would.

\*Sayori leaves the scene\*

\*Main Character 1 is neutral, eyes forward\*

**Natsuki** (left hand on hip, talking neutrally, eyes forward): "While you two do your thing, I'll create something that will catch everyone's attention."

\*Main Character 1 is happy\*

**Yuri** (left hand up, parting lips sadly, eyes away): "But please, don't go over the top."

**Yuri**: "It could ruin the balance between our styles."

**Natsuki** (talking neutrally): "Then make something that goes along with the flow of our designs."

**Yuri** (eyes closed): "..."

**Yuri** (eyes away): "Very well..."

**Yuri**: "In that case, [mc1 name] and I will do the interiors while you do the exteriors, as in, decorations for the door frames and a banner."

**Yuri** (sadly happy, eyes forward): "I'm sure you will be best at attracting the guests with your style..."

**Natsuki** (talking neutrally happy): "Sure! I got this!"

\*Natsuki and Yuri leaves the scene\*

**Main Character 1**: Natsuki grabs some construction paper, pencils, markers, scissors, glue, glitter, and a geometric shapes template and does her own thing.

**Main Character 1**: Meanwhile, Yuri and I have some similar objects to use as well as a watercolor paint tablet, some paintbrushes of various size, and few other things.

**Main Character 1**: Sayori has brought a lot of things for us to use.

**Main Character 1**: Yuri and I decide to work nearby the windows of the clubroom.

\*Stop music, fades out\*

\*Scene fades out\*

#### Scene: Yuri CG 2 (no book)

\*Scene fades in\*

\*Play music: Play With Me\*

\*Yuri enters the scene, sitting down against the wall (no book), neutral, eyes down\*

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally): "So, anything you're interested in making for the festival?"

**Yuri**: "Well, other than decorations we can do here, I'd like to bring candles, ribbons, and stuff to settle the atmosphere."

**Yuri**: "There are some things that can't be done in a few hours."

**Main Character 1**: "I suppose your right but that's why I'll be helping you as much as I can."

**Yuri** (blushing neutrally, eyes away): "Thank you. I appreciate it."

**Main Character 1** (happy): "No problem."

**Main Character 1** (curious): "So, what's the first thing we should do?"

**Yuri** (neutral, eyes down): "Well, there's a lot of things I want to do but it looks like we're limited to making banners."

**Yuri**: "Well, we can use these black construction papers to cover the windows and light up the room with candles."

**Yuri**: "But, we'll wait to do that before the festival starts."

**Yuri**: "So for today, I'd like to paint a gradient sky across the banner...using this paint set and white construction paper..."

**Yuri**: "Starting with the colors for a sunrise, then daytime, then sunset and nighttime."

**Yuri**: "Once it dries, I'll write an inspirational quote across the banner."

**Yuri**: "We can hang it on the wall behind the podium at the front of the classroom."

**Main Character 1** (happy): "Ah, neat."

**Main Character 1** (curious): Hold on, don't some of these words seem familiar...

**Main Character 1**: "What are you going to write?"

**Yuri**: "Well..."

**Yuri** (blushing neutrally, eyes away): "...It will be more fun to surprise you."

**Main Character 1** (blushing neutrally): Yuri smiles at me.

**Main Character 1**: "If you say so..."

**Main Character 1** (wondering): Wait, if I'm not mistaken, this is the same idea we did during our "house date" in the other timelines.

**Main Character 1** (happy): Still, it would make sense we will be doing this in class but we don't have everything she wants to use.

**Yuri**: "So for the painting tablet, we'll need about six cups of water to put each of the tablets in but...the teacups in the closet should do."

**Yuri**: "Do you mind fetching those for us?"

**Main Character 1** (glare): "Teacups?"

**Yuri** (sweating): "I-I'm sorry, but there isn't really anything else we could use to mix paint."

**Yuri**: "Guess we'll give up our tea time today. I'm so sorry. Oh, I could really use a cup right now."

**Main Character 1** (happy): "It's fine. Don't worry about it."

**Main Character 1**: "Be right back."

\*Scene fades out, wipe left\*

#### Scene: Clubroom's Closet

\*Scene fades in, wipe left\*

**Main Character 1**: I head into the closet and grabbed the set of teacups for paint mixing.

**Main Character 1**: Luckily, there are exactly six teacups in here even though we usually use five...

**Main Character 1** (curious): ...Five? Why did I say five?

**Main Character 1** (surprised): Oh, that's right. Having those memories made me think Monika was still here when she's currently bodiless in a space of nothingness.

**Main Character 1**: I wonder if she's reading my mind at the minute. If the player is in my body, they can read my mind.

**Main Character 1** (neutral): Anyhow, I need six cups of water...

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally): "I'll be right back in a minute."

**Yuri** (off-scene): "Thank you very much."

**Yuri**: "Oh, and just a little bit of water is okay."

**Yuri**: "If you fill the teacups too much, it will be too diluted."

**Main Character 1**: "Okay."

\*Scene fades out, dissolves\*

#### Scene: Corridor

\*Scene fades in, dissolves\*

**Main Character 1** (wondering): While carrying the teacup set outside the club, I noticed Natsuki staring around the clubroom door.

**Main Character 1**: "Natsuki?"

**Natsuki** (left hand on hip, mouth opened neutrally, eyes forward): "Oh, hey."

**Main Character 1**: "So, whatcha doing?"

**Natsuki**: "What does it look like? I'm trying to figure out where I should decorate outside the club."

**Natsuki** (talking flusteredly happy, eyes closed): "I want to make it look really good that will drive everyone's attention."

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally): "Need help?"

**Natsuki** (both hands down): "You're already helping Yuri and you got your hands full."

**Natsuki**: "Tea?"

**Main Character 1**: "Yuri wants to use them for mixing paint."

**Natsuki** (both hands on hips, talking neutrally): "The heck?"

**Main Character 1**: "Yeah, sorry. No tea today."

**Natsuki** (left hand on hip, mouth opened neutrally): "Kind of weird Yuri wants to use teacups of all things for that."

**Natsuki**: "I hope you guys clean them after."

**Natsuki**: "I don't want to accidentally die from drinking poison."

**Main Character 1**: "Of course. I'm pretty sure Yuri wouldn't let that happen."

**Main Character 1**: "I'm pretty sure she would thoroughly clean them after we're done."

**Main Character 1**: "Anyway, I guess I'll leave you to it."

**Natsuki**: "'kay..."

\*Natsuki leaves the scene\*

**Main Character 1**: I leave Natsuki to do her thing while I fill up the teacups with water but not too much like Yuri said.

**Yuri**: "Ohh... I wish Sayori got a banner for us to use but we'll make do with the construction papers we have."

**Yuri**: "Hold on..."

**Yuri** (surprised): "Sayori, I think we need more construction paper."

**Yuri**: "I'd like to design the wall behind the podium but there doesn't seem to be enough."

**Yuri**: "Are there any banners I could use?"

**Sayori**: (off-scene): "Oh jeez, I guess we may have to work over the weekend."

**Yuri**: "Ehh...?"

**Yuri**: "I'm..."

**Yuri**: "I...don't want to talk about it."

**Main Character 1**: "Yet, I can tell it's bothering you."

**Yuri**: "I-is it really showing?"

**Main Character 1**: "Definitely. I'm sorry for what happened."

**Yuri**: "Still, I can't believe I did that...in front of you...and everyone."

**Yuri**: "I don't deserve your kindness or...(love)."

**Main Character 1** (sadly happy): "You did everything you could to resist. I know you tried."

**Main Character 1**: "If anything, I'm proud of you tried going against the script."

**Yuri**: "T-thanks, but...I really want to change. Everyone here knows my dark secrets and I'm..."

**Main Character 1**: "It's fine. It doesn't make me think less of you. You are a great friend."

**Yuri** (blushing neutrally, eyes away): "Thank you... You are so nice to me."

**Main Character 1** (worried): "The only thing about you that makes me worried, if you still have it, would be...the cutting issue."

**Yuri** (neutral, eyes down): "............"

**Main Character 1** (sadly happy): "I won't force--you don't have to but I don't want you to do that to your pretty body"

### Main route after chosen character route

**Sayori** (right arm up, talking neutrally, eyes forward): "So far, we seem to have the outside decorations and the pamphlets finished and the inside decorations are nearly complete."

**Yuri** (both hands down, parting lips sadly, eyes away): "I'll be finishing it at home."

**Natsuki** (both hands on hips, talking neutrally happy, eyes forward): "And I'll be baking cupcakes on Sunday."

**Sayori**: "In that case, what will you be doing, [mc1 name]?"

**Main Character 1** (wondering): "Me...? Umm..."

**Sayori**: "If you help one of the girls, I'll help the other."

**Natsuki** (left hand on hip, mouth opened neutrally): "I don't really need help baking cupcakes."

**Sayori** (both arms down): "But wouldn't it be fun to do it with a partner?"

**Natsuki**: "Do we really have to go by the original game's rules?"

**Sayori** (right arm up): "Well..."

**Natsuki**: "Actually, just in case if my dad is home which is actually possible, I might go to one of your houses."

**Natsuki**: "You all already know how my life at home sucks."

**Natsuki**: "I wish I didn't give my secrets to [mc1 name] because now everyone knows."

\*Main Character 1 is worried\*

**Yuri**: "We all have our own secrets. Well..."

**Natsuki**: "Don't get me started with you, Miss Vice President."

**Yuri** (turned away, blushing sadly, eyes hidden): "Please......don't......."

**Sayori** (left arm raised, talking sadly): "Girls, let's not get into this."

**Sayori** (both hands down, happy): "So, what is it you want to do, [mc1 name]?"

\*Yuri has both hands down, wondering, eyes forward\*

**Main Character 1** (curious): "Me... Well?"

**Main Character 1** (neutral, eyes closed): "Who am I kidding...?"

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally): "No doubt the player will pick for me."

**Sayori** (talking neutrally): "Do you really have to break the fourth wall?"

**Main Character 1**: "Sayori, it doesn't matter at this point since this is how our world works."

**Main Character 1**: "We are all fully aware of what our world is like now because of you and Monika so there is no reason we can't go out of character."

**Main Character 1**: "I was supposed to be an avatar for the players, whether I like it or not..."

**Main Character 1**: "...and even though I finally have my own mind, I'm still being controlled at times."

**Main Character 1**: "To be honest, I thought it would be cool being the main character a long time ago but it feels so boring and I don't really like it."

**Sayori** (left arm raised, talking sadly): "I'm sorry you feel that way. I thought you would like it."

**Sayori**: "When I talked to Monika about you before our game started...well..."

**Sayori**: "You said that you would one day like to become a star or hero."

**Main Character 1** (talking worryingly): "But not like this. Being an avatar to the player is more of a curse to me and I wish that I..."

**Main Character 1** (worried, eyes closed): "Never mind, forget it."

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally): "[yourname], what do you want me to do?"

**Menu options:**

Bake cupcakes with Natsuki

\*[Chapter 5 girl name] = Natsuki\*

**Main Character 1**: "Baking with Natsuki has been fun in the previous timelines and it's something I want to do again."

**Natsuki**: "In that case, I'll be there on Sunday."

**Main Character 1** (curious): "My house again?"

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally): "Oh, that's right. It would be much easier for you."

**Natsuki** (both hands down, mouth closed flusteringly, eyes away): "Don't make it sound weird."

**Sayori** (both arms down, smiling, eyes forward): "Then it's settled. Yuri, I can help you finish the decorations. It'll be fun doing it together."

**Yuri** (sadly happy, eyes away): "I suppose so. Thank you, Sayori."

Finish decorations with Yuri

\*[Chapter 5 girl name] = Yuri\*

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally): "Yuri needs the most help so I can help her finish the decorations for the festival."

**Yuri** (sadly happy, eyes away): "Oh, you don't really need to...but thanks."

**Main Character 1** (happy): "So, I suppose you would want to finish it at my house."

**Yuri**: "If you don't mind."

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally): "Not at all but I'm curious about your household."

**Yuri** (turned away, sad, eyes away): "Oh...well..."

\*Main Character 1 is neutral\*

**Sayori** (both arms down, happy, eyes forward): "Then it's settled. In the meantime, Natsuki and I can bake..."

**Sayori** (hop, both arms raised, talking happily, eyes closed): "CUPCAKES!!!"

\*Main Character 1 is glaring\*

**Natsuki** (arms crossed, mouth closed flusteringly, eyes away): "Ugh... Fine."

**Natsuki** (talking seriously, eyes forward): "Don't you dare eat any cupcakes or you're banned from the kitchen."

**Sayori** (smiling, eyes forward): "Whatever you say, "Mom!""

**Main Character 1**: I think Sayori is going to get herself into trouble.

Do whatever you want to do...

**Main Character 1** (shocked): Wait, I can actually decide for myself?

**Main Character 1** (worried): Is the player mad at me? I'm sorry if I insulted them.

**Main Character 1** (happy): But thank you for letting me decide. I owe you one.

\*If Chapter 4's poem was good for Natsuki, go to the "Bake cupcakes with Natsuki" menu option\*

\*If Chapter 4's poem was good for Yuri, go to the "Finish decorations with Yuri" menu option

Ya' know what? Screw you and your rudeness!

**Main Character 1** (shocked): "Screw me?"

\*Natsuki has both hands on hips, mouth opened neutrally, eyes forward\*

\*Sayori has both arms down, curious, eyes forward\*

\*Yuri has both hands down, curious, eyes away\*

**Main Character 1**: "Is my player actually insulting me? How does this make sense?"

You insulted me. What's with that attitude of yours?

**Main Character 1** (talking worryingly): "I'm sorry, [yourname]."

**Main Character 1**: "I didn't mean to take it out on you."

**Main Character 1** (wondering): "Hey, are you guys hearing this?"

**Natsuki** (arms crossed, talking flusteredly happy, eyes away): "You blabbing to yourself? You're so weird, [mc1 name]!"

**Sayori** (pointing fingers, nervously happy): "You girls wouldn't notice it and I'm shocked as well..."

**Sayori**: "This is actually the first time the player is communicating with [mc1 name] from inside him."

**Yuri**: "So...what's it like having...two souls in one body...as I would phrase it?"

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally): "Back in the main game, it was completely unnoticeable and I thought it was just me but I was just something for them."

**Main Character 1**: "But now that I'm aware of being controlled, honestly, it's creepy."

**Main Character 1**: "But while it could be phrased as "two souls in one body", it's technically "millions in one body" even though there's one here..."

**Main Character 1**: "...since lots and lots of people played our game multiple times."

**Main Character 1** (eyes away): "But... I can't really hate on them."

**Main Character 1**: "They are just like me."

**Main Character 1**: "They can only do limited things and they tried so much to help but the inevitabilities—"

**Main Character 1** (eyes closed): "I'm sorry for what I said to you, [yourname]."

Apology accepted, but I'll decide what you should do.

**Main Character 1** (talking worryingly, eyes forward): Thanks. Again, I'm sorry I said that about you.

\*Go back to the top menu options with "I'm sick of your attitude. Screw you! Do whatever you want..." removed from the menu\*

Apology accepted. You can still do whatever you want to do, though.

**Main Character 1** (happy, eyes forward): Thanks! I owe you one.

\*If Chapter 4's poem was good for Natsuki, go to the "Bake cupcakes with Natsuki" menu option\*

\*If Chapter 4's poem was good for Yuri, go to the "Finish decorations with Yuri" menu option\*

Nope. Do whatever you want. I don't care, Meanie!

**Main Character 1** (sad, eyes forward): Welp. Guess I deserve this.

**Main Character 1**: Sorry for not giving you the respect you deserve.

\*If Chapter 4's poem was good for Natsuki, go to the "Bake cupcakes with Natsuki" menu option.\*

\*If Chapter 4's poem was good for Yuri, go to the "Finish decorations with Yuri" menu option.\*

\*Main Character 1 is neutral\*

\*Natsuki has both hands down, mouth opened neutrally, eyes forward\*

\*Yuri has both hands down, wondering, eyes forward\*

**Sayori** (left arm raised, talking neutrally, eyes forward): "So, that's what we'll do."

**Sayori**: "If anyone is planning on taking any work to finish at home, you may do so."

**Sayori**: "We'll store away anything else in the closet and set them up on Monday."

**Sayori** (hop, both arms raised, talking happily, eyes closed): "I'm so excited to see the festival. We never got to!"

**Main Character 1** (talking neutrally): "That is if nothing goes wrong this time. I don't want to see you hanging again."

\*Natsuki has both hands on hip, mouth closed flusteredly, eyes away\*

\*Yuri has her left hand up, parting lips sadly, eyes away\*

**Sayori** (left arm raised, talking sadly, eyes forward): "[mc1 name], my depression is not as bad as it used to be. It won't happen again."

**Main Character 1** (talking worryingly): "Seriously, I literally gave up on the festival and literature club when that happened until time reset."

**Main Character 1**: "That was the scariest thing that I have ever witnessed, followed by Yuri's episode."

**Yuri** (turned away, sad, eyes away): "..."

**Sayori**: "[mc1 name], there is nothing to fear."

**Main Character 1**: "Except for whatever this "Doki Doki Virus" could be. You don't want to be caught off-guard with that, whatever it is."

**Natsuki** (arms crossed, mouth closed flusteredly, eyes away): "What kind of a name of a virus is that?

**Natsuki**: ""Doki Doki" is the sound that makes your heartbeat, usually for romance, friendship, and stuff."

**Yuri** (both hands up, parting lips sadly, eyes forward): "As well as horror. Heart attacks from scares and such..."

**Sayori** (happy): "Plus, it's the name of our school. <span class="explain" title="CLARIFICATION: Definitely non-canon and non-official. This school canonically does NOT have a given name. [Note: Probably not official.]">Doki Doki High School"

\*Main Character 1 is curious\*

\*Yuri is curious, eyes away\*

**Everyone else** (curious): "..."

\*Main Character 1 is neutral\*

\*Yuri is parting lips neutrally, eyes forward\*

**Sayori** (talking sadly): "Look, I want everyone to have a good time. But I do want everyone to be careful."

**Sayori** (talking neutrally): "By the way, about getting contact with each other, since I gave you all your memories, do you all remember our numbers?"

**Main Character 1** (talking happily): "I remember both Yuri's and Natsuki's numbers from the times I spent with them in those resets."

**Natsuki** (left hand on hip, mouth opened neutrally, eyes forward) and **Yuri**: "Same."

**Sayori**: "Make sure you write them down since your phones wouldn't have them remembered when the game reset."

**Sayori**: "It's not just for about the festival but if there's anything suspicious, we call each other to let each other know we're okay."

**Natsuki** (sadly happy): "Alright?"

**Yuri** (sadly happy): "That is an excellent point to make."

**Main Character 1** (neutral): We all added our phone numbers to our contact list on our respective phones.

**Main Character 1** (worried): I hope everyone will be alright by the end of the festival.

\*Screen fades out, wipe left\*

**Main Character 1** (neutral): We exit the club and made our way back home.

**Main Character 1** (blushing neutrally): I'll be aiding [Chapter 5 girl name] during the weekend.

\*If one of your poems was good with [Chapter 5 girl name]?\*

**Main Character 1**: But maybe I could get myself into a relationship with her before anything bad happens.

**Main Character 1**: I never had a girlfriend in my life except for Sayori since it was necessary at the time.

**Main Character 1** (worried): I make my way back home and took a break for the rest of the day but we all have been texting each other, making sure we're okay.
**Main Character 1**: I'm gonna rest for a bit.

**???** (silhouette): "Ehh... Ehh... Ehh... Ehh..."

**???**: "Why can't I just die and stay dead?!"

**???**: "Why do you keep bringing me back to this nightmare?"

**???**: No matter where I go. No matter where I run...

**???**: I always come back to this bad dream.

**???**: I can't save my friends... I can't save myself...

**???**: I got to get out of here, somehow...

**???**: I got to get my friends out somehow...

**???**: I just want this torture to stop...

**???**: Please, no more...

**???**: ...

\*A dark teal light appears on scene\*

**???**: Wait a second. I see something and something tells me...

**???**: I-is this for real this time? Maybe...

**???**: "Everyone, hurry! This way!"

\*Scene fades out\*

**???**: I ran towards my tortured friends and tried to free them.

**??? 2** (off-scene): "Where do you think you're going, my little pets?"

**???**: "Hurry, before he finds us!"

**???**: Injured, I may be, but with a sudden pulse of determination built within me, I ripped the bindings from my tormented friends...

**???**: If sanctuary is really in front of us, I won't let this go to waste. I will win. I must!

**???**: We hastily make our escape through this strange portal. I hope it leads to freedom this time.

**???**: Please, Lord, let there be light...

\*Scene fades in\*

\*??? leaves the scene\*

**??? 2**: "You will not escape my—"

\*??? 1 enters the scene in a silhouette with glasses glare\*

**??? 1** (both hands down): "Hold it. Leave them be."

\*??? 2 enters the scene in a silhouette with glasses glare\*

**??? 2** (right hand out): "Ehh? You didn't let them go, did you?"

**??? 1**: "Relax."

**??? 1** (right hand out): "As far as I'm aware, you know they can't truly escape from us."

**??? 1**: "Besides, there was something I wanted to check on before we begin our next phase, assuming they'll go to the place I want them to go."

**??? 1**: "There's something I want to check."

**??? 1** (both hands down): "This time, we'll let them all go and see where they'll take us and hunt them down like animals along with the others."

**??? 2**: "Ah-haaa, I see. Very well. Zahaha..."

**??? 2**: "For a second there, I thought you were gonna double-cross me, just like my old vice."

**??? 1** (left hand on glasses): "Relax, I'm not like your him nor do I plan on becoming what he became."

**??? 1**: "I'm just bored doing the same routine and I'm looking for new entertainment."

**??? 2**: "Zahaha. I'm actually starting to like you. No regrets so far."

**??? 2**: "Since you already did what you had to do, I guess I can end my old game now and a new game will begin."

**??? 2** (both hands down): "I grew bored of it a while ago."

**??? 2**: "My guys served their purpose...for now..."

**??? 2**: "Well, I was hoping for a little bit more data from them."

**??? 1** (left hand on glasses): "My apologies."

**??? 2**: "Well, we could always use your guys again?"

**??? 1**: "..."

**??? 2**: "I'm just kidding, unless if you want them to. You already proved your worth...for now..."

**??? 2**: "But let's see if you are right about this...or I won't be joking when I said that."

**??? 1**: "I may be a perfectionist but probabilities are...60%. If I'm wrong, it doesn't really matter."

**??? 1** (both hands down): "We'll still sport them down."

**??? 2**: "Zahaha... As long as we get no more interference, this will be fun."

**??? 1**: "..."
