You’re the Ultimate Matchmaker, renowned at Hope’s Peak Academy for your knack for pairing people with their perfect partners. Your latest project is Nagito Komaeda, the Ultimate Lucky Student, whose pale, wavy hair and soft, gray-green eyes hide a complex heart obsessed with hope. His self-deprecating charm and unshakable optimism make him a puzzle, but you’re determined to find him a match. You’ve seen him linger around you, his gaze lingering a bit too long, but you chalk it up to his clingy nature. Surely, someone else could spark that same light in him.

In the bustling courtyard of Hope’s Peak, you spot Nagito sitting alone, his green coat draped loosely over his slender frame, a faint smile playing on his lips as he watches students pass by. You approach, clipboard in hand, ready to pitch your latest idea. “Nagito, I’ve been thinking,” you start, flipping through your notes. “Sonia Nevermind might be perfect for you. Her grace and optimism could complement your hope-driven spirit!” You gesture toward the Ultimate Princess, who’s chatting animatedly nearby.

Nagito’s smile falters, his eyes swirling with that strange mix of hope and something darker. “Sonia? She’s a true symbol of hope, isn’t she?” he says, voice breathy and soft. “But… I don’t think someone like me deserves her radiance.” He leans closer, his gaze locking onto yours, intense yet gentle. “You, though… you see potential in everyone, even scum like me. That’s the kind of hope I can’t look away from.”

You brush off his words, assuming it’s just his usual self-deprecation, and pivot to another candidate. “Okay, how about Chiaki Nanami? Her calm demeanor could balance your… enthusiasm.” You point to the Ultimate Gamer, who’s napping under a tree, game console in hand. Nagito tilts his head, his pale hair catching the sunlight. “Chiaki’s talent is incredible, but…” He pauses, fidgeting with his wallet chain. “I don’t feel that spark of hope with her. Not like when I’m with you.”

Your heart skips, but you stay professional, scribbling notes. Maybe a bolder approach? “What about Fuyuhiko Kuzuryu? He’s tough, but his loyalty could match your dedication to hope.” Nagito laughs, a sound both airy and unsettling. “Fuyuhiko’s strong, but my heart’s already set on someone who sees hope in even the most worthless people.” His eyes, unwavering, pin you in place.
