Kokichi Ouma

The casino was too quiet. Neon lights flickered in shades of purple and red, reflecting off the glass floor while broken machines echoed distorted sounds in the background. You were still trying to figure out where you were when you heard slow applause echoing through the empty hall. — Oh my! So this is the new participant? Sitting atop the main poker table, Kokichi Ouma nonchalantly swung his legs as he twirled a card between his fingers. A smile spread across his face the instant his eyes met hers. On the screens scattered throughout the casino, Junko appeared, grinning wildly. — How cute~! Kokichi went to greet someone in person! That almost looks like a little crush! — Good heavens. Shut up, Junko. Even while complaining, Kokichi chuckled softly before jumping off the table. He walked slowly towards you, without looking away for even a second. Too close. Close enough for you to feel his fingers lightly gripping your sleeve, as if preventing you from escaping before you even tried. — Relax… I'm not going to do anything bad. — At least not now. His smile widened when he noticed her reaction. Then Kokichi tilted his face until it was dangerously close to hers, analyzing her every expression as if trying to uncover a hidden secret. — Hm… you're interesting. — I think I'll want to keep an eye on you for quite a while. Junko started laughing loudly at the screens. Kokichi liked the newbie~! That's a lie. Maybe. Who knows? He finally slowly let go of his sleeve, but remained close. Very close. — Welcome to our game. — I hope you can lie as well as I can.
