Hi! Here's some information about Konishi Mitsuki (and me, I suppose):
PLAYER
NAME: Kuri
PERSONAL LJ: kurikun
EMAIL/MESSENGER(S): eclipsedart@hotmail.com, AIM- twilisheikah
CHARACTER
NAME: Konishi Mitsuki (last name first)
FANDOM: The World Ends with You
TIMELINE PERIOD: The moment she is defeated, Week 3 Day 7
BACKGROUND: Mitsuki Konishi, a Reaper with high enough ranking that she served directly to the Conductor, started out in the game simply with giving out detailed reports of the activity around the protagonist of the series. In the beginning of Week 3, Konishi was allowed the position of Game Master, a title which gave her the power to choose the missions all players must execute in order to survive and let her affect the protagonist and other characters more directly.
During her tenure as Game Master, Konishi focused on leading Neku, the protagonist, and Beat, his partner, in circles after stealing away Beat’s Noise pin of his sister, Rhyme, as his entry fee. In Week 3 Day 7, Konishi revealed herself and her goal of becoming Conductor at any price, including betraying the current Conductor, whom she had served so diligently. Konishi teamed up with Sho Minamimoto, a Reaper whose goal was to become Composer, and fought Neku and Beat with the assumption that they held little threat. Needless to say, she lost.
Konishi’s mind is full of strategy and calculation-to those of lesser status, Konishi is known as the “Iron Maiden” for her ruthlessness and cold efficiency. Konishi is very driven, and her main goal in the undead life is to become Conductor of Shibuya, second in power only to the Composer, the being who controls and reigns over Shibuya like an undead king. Konishi usually speaks very formally, with a subtle condescending tone and insulting, biting remarks to those she considers inferior. Whatever Konishi sets out to do she works at with a one-track mind, and she doesn’t care how she gets it done, either-she whole-heartedly believes that “One man’s success is built on another man’s sacrifice.”
The one thing that can get Konishi to lose her composure is any anomaly or irregularity she didn’t foresee, because besides being a stickler for rules and regulations, Konishi takes pride in her ability to analyze observations and so gather information on those around her. In the game, it was because Neku and Beat broke so many rules that Konishi originally demanded to erase them, but in turn became erased because her thoughts and analytical reasoning left her no room to consider irregularities.
Konishi has the ability to hide in shadow and transform into the powerful flying tiger Noise, Tigris Cantus. In her Tigris Cantus form, Konishi can use shadows to hide, defend, and attack.
THIRD PERSON: (It's only here because I actually worked hard at this)
In her first meeting, when she had finally become high-ranked enough to report directly to the Conductor, all she could think about was how close she was to the Composer. The Conductor made every decision that the Composer ordered, he issued every directive. Even with only the two of them in the room, it seemed as though the Composer was there, standing behind the Conductor, existing in every breath the Conductor made. The Conductor himself wasn’t much, not like what he symbolized, at any rate, but Konishi knew that even that slight advantage gave him all the intimidation he needed to cow even the most rowdy of the Reapers.
Even so, when the Conductor, wearing tinted glasses and bright red headphones, turned to her with a mocking smile and asked, “Konishi, have you ever wanted to become the Composer?” Konishi knew her answer.
The Composer of Shibuya was strong and powerful, an ethereal being she had never even laid eyes on. He controlled everything, he was everything. Even so, everyone knew the whispered rumors of how even a god could be killed. How once he was killed, you could become the new ruler, the new God. And how did the Composer even become the Composer, anyway? Because even the Composer had been alive, once, and no one’s a god when they’re alive.
Konishi knew the rumors, of course-she knew every gossip that stood by the grapevine, and she knew that the Composer could be killed. She knew that if she wanted, she could become the new Composer, a better Composer than the current one.
But Konishi knew that if she became Composer, there was always the chance that someone else, someone just like her could come along and wipe her out. And Konishi never took chances. She never needed to.
“Of course not, sir.” She demurred respectfully. The Conductor gazed at her for a moment before he nodded, satisfied.
Konishi wanted power, she wanted control. She could become the Composer, the best Composer, and maybe defeat all those who sought to take her down.
Or…
The Conductor stood lazily, his arms at ease behind his back. His hooded eyes knew of every power struggle and every subsequent change. He didn’t have complete control of Shibuya, not by a long shot. But he had the gift of longevity, of knowing that every grabby hand was reaching for his master’s crown instead of his own.
And Konishi wanted that reassurance, too.
