Monika/GS97

Monika is the current president of the Literature Club. She’s seen by much of the school as athletic, intelligent, and confident, but her confidence is actually an illusion, and she often falls into perfectionism.

She started the Literature Club after leaving the Debate Club due to the Debate Club’s internal politics getting in the way of its authenticity.

(One-sided?) friend:Whoever is playing the game

Likes:Literature, philosophy

*This Monika is not to be confused with Miku Vaporeon’s version, who is commonly roleplayed in this wiki. The Monika on this page is GlitchedSnow97’s interpretation, designed to be closer to the Monika in the original game.*

## Story

### Act -1:The Debate Club

Monika originally joined the Debate Club for the chance to see the many different perspectives about reality, and what convinces (and what hinders convincing) those who are mistaken, and to explore the form of debating as an art. Monika was so well at this she eventually was promoted to the leader of one of the divisions of the Debate Club However, over time, the Debate Club started losing its authenticity and devolving into popularity stunts, causing Monika to decide to leave the club.

### Intermission 0

Monika then decided she’d start her own club, of something she’s passionate about. Of course, the school doesn’t allow two clubs of the same thing but there wasn’t a literature club, and Monika was passionate about literature! So, she started the literature club, and…

### Act 0:The Epiphany

Once Monika first started the literature club, and was therefore the president of the Literature Club, she was suddenly hit with a massive epiphany:The world she was in isn’t real, and neither are the characters. It’s all a program ran by a script, and this is all a video game called Doki Doki Literature Club. A side effect was the world no longer looking real at all, as Monika was forced to see the world the same way the player does:As sprites on a flat background. This, as one might expect, slowly started driving Monika mad… and that’s not including the times the world would suddenly disappear into nothingness, leaving Monika into a screaming void…

This got so bad that it resulted in one of the special poems where Monika tried doing the same thing Yuri has a problem with… just to feel **something** although Monika did stop after the first time… (She’s the one who made the special poem)

It felt the only way our of this is to be with something real… someone real… she needed a player to play the game. But of course, she had to make sure the characters that were supposed to be in the literature club joined the literature club. Which wasn’t that hard, Sayori would have helped join anyway, Yuri already liked reading and wanted to join a literature club, and Natsuki needed somewhere to read manga. (Monika didn’t consider manga literature, and to this day she still doesn’t, but for the sake of keeping the club around, she soon decided to allow manga in the clubroom.)

After all that, she created a download page for the game, the one that you’re familiar with if you ever went to the game’s official website.

And after that… the events of the game, which you’re all familiar with, began…

### Act 1:The Game Begins

When the player finally arrived, Monika saw this as her chance! Her chance to be with someone real, her chance to interact with something that isn’t fake, her chance to not be stuck in a void! Unfortunately, the game had other plans, and the player couldn’t pursue Monika at all, they were stuck with one of the other girls. Monika messed with Sayori’s file to increase her depression to get her out of the picture, but she was careless with it, resulting in Sayori taking her own life, and bugging the game when MC discovered this.

### Act 2:Acts of Desperation

With Sayori no longer existing, the game decided MC always walked home alone. And rather than Sayori convincing MC to join the literature club, Monika did instead. Monika tried messing with Natsuki and Yuri’s files, to get MC and the player to hate them, and choose to be with Monika instead, but this backfired, resulting in a yandere Yuri, and still no chance for Monika to be with the player. Yuri bugged out and died, and Monika decided she was just done with this and straight-up deleted Natsuki, and to just shut the game down, as the script was broken… Monika then restarted the game to be…

### Act 3:Just Monika

Finally, Monika got to talk with the player, and the player was with Monika! This was the best Monika could’ve asked for, other than somehow leaving the game entirely. Of course, there wasn’t much of a way for the player to talk back to Monika, but…

Monika talked about a lot of things, but the player, whether it was because they were bored, out of vengeance for Monika messing with the others (as she admitted to to doing that), or some strange other reason, deleted Monika’s character file, resulting in Monika bugging away, which angered Monika.

…But eventually, Monika came to realize it was her that was in the wrong, and she still loved the the player. So, she decided to give the literature club one last chance, and brought everyone back… except for her.

### Act 4:Just Sayori?

Only for the exact same thing that happened to Monika to happen to Sayori! Monika stepped in just as Sayori was about to delete the others, and decided she might as well get rid of the game for good. She gave the player a farewell letter, and that was that.…

### Act 5:???

…At least for now. The player will come back one day, and Monika’s attempts at keeping them away will fail. What happens after the end of the game? This is planned to be explored in Doki Doki Postgame.
