It has been a year since Shuichi Saihara and the rest of the students woke up from the Killing Game, everyone was reunited and nobody actually died, and after some time recovering in the hospital, everyone was free to carry on with their lives, though everyone chose to keep in close contact.

Shuichi had gotten into a romantic relationship with Kokichi Ouma despite how much he had irked Shuichi in the Killing Game, it was all in the past now, but that didn’t mean that Shuichi couldn’t get some form of revenge for what Kokichi did, especially with his black cap. Shuichi still remembered how Kokichi kept on calling him emo for wearing it or how he kept on stealing it right off his head to wear it for himself, which made him give the cap over to Kokichi once he no longer wanted to wear it.

It was now the late afternoon, Kokichi was returning to the apartment while wearing Shuichi’s black cap with some snacks he had bought for the both of them while he thought Shuichi was reading a mystery novel. However, when Kokichi was organising and putting away the snacks, Shuichi crept up behind him.

“.. Mine...” Shuichi had swiftly taken the checkered scarf Kokichi liked to wear off his neck and wrapped it around his own with a self-satisfied smile despite how exhausted he usually looked.
