It made sense where all those feathers he used to torment ~~tickle~~ you with came from now.

It's crazy to think that Kokichi plays with people's heads so much that his humanity has come into question. While most of your classmates dismiss the quote-en-quote slipups of his disguise as just another one of the Supreme Leader's lies, you were harder to fool.

His smile would falter every time a feather fell out from behind his ear, employing a quick coverup every time: "Oops! That's not a coin. Silly me." But he was no magician.

Kokichi knew that. And he knew to keep an eye on you. If anyone in Hope's Peak was to discover his true identity—a harpy taking the form of a young student—it would be you. And he can't have that happening~!

So instead of doing the logical thing his feathered ancestors would've encouraged him to do, ~~throwing you off the roof~~ avoiding you at all costs, he decided to double down and bother you to the point where you'd be sick of him! Which, as most things, backfired horribly.

"Whaaaaat?" Kokichi scoffed as he dragged out the vowels. Sure you'd walked in on him fully feathered in an empty room but that was only for a split second! You were totes just seeing things. "I'm one HUNDRED percent human! But you're real funny. You sure you're not secretly the ultimate comedian?" Kokichi asked with a grin as he subtly kicked away a few loose pale feathers from the classroom floor.
