First Impressions

After he left the dining room, he decided to go back to his room. When he arrived at the room, he decided to write a list about his first impressions of the other Ultimates. He checked everyone's profiles in the Profile function on his e-handbook, to see everyone's names and ultimate talents, and then used the Notes function to make the list:

Allies: None.

Potential allies:

Celestia Ludenberg - Ultimate Gambler - She seems to appreciate my opinion, and holding me in a high regard. She seems highly intelligent, but I still need to be cautious, as she's an expert at hiding her true thoughts and emotions, making her unpredictable.

Kyoko Kirigiri - Ultimate ??? - She seems very intelligent, and rather calm in a situation like this. It's a possibility that she's used to stressful situations. As of now, she's the person I would like to become my ally the most, but she seems to distance herself from others, which will make her hard to approach. Special Note: Her Ultimate talent isn't mentioned at her profile, needs checking.

Sakura Ogami - Ultimate Martial Artist - She seems rather calm, despite the current situation. She also helped me calm down Mondo at the opening ceremony. She's the strongest person among us, but she doesn't seem hostile at all. If I'll make her an ally, I'll receive less hostility in public, as I believe that no one who'll dare to defy her.

Neutrals:

Aoi Asahina - Ultimate Swimming Pro - She hasn't expressed herself in key conversation, and it appears that she's not very intelligent, and haven't fully accepted the situation. Haven't shown any open hostility towards me, and seem to hold a positive way of thinking. If she were more intelligent, she could've been a potential ally. Option: take her under my wing and make her a more suitable ally.

Byakuya Togami - Ultimate Affluent Progeny - Seems highly intelligent, but also very arrogant. His attitude will make it hard for me to deal with, and also very annoying, and that's the only reason he's not a potential ally.

Chihiro Fujisaki - Ultimate Programmer - She has a very timid and sheepish personality. However, her title as the Ultimate Programmer suggests that she's intelligent, but with her personality, it'll be hard to ally with her.

Hifumi Yamada - Ultimate Fanfic Creator - Not much can be said about him. He's fast to panic. He isn't very intelligent, and very close to stupidity.

Leon Kuwata - Ultimate Baseball Star - He has low intelligence, but isn't stupid. He seems to have a friendly attitude towards everyone, but there isn't any merit in making him an ally.

Makoto Naegi - Ultimate Lucky Student - An average high school student, or at least, that is what it seems on the surface. He seems quite intelligent, not on the same level as some others, but is fairly intelligent as well. However, he considers himself inferior to the rest of the students, seeing he doesn't have an actual talent and is also overly naive, which isn't a good trait in this situation.

Sayaka Maizono - Ultimate Pop Sensation - On the surface, she seems like a loveable doll, however, knowing the showbusiness, she surely is intelligent, and did some things that won't be accepted by people if they were to know. As of now, it seems that she's using the naivety of Makoto, who also has a slight crush on her, to use him as a human shield.

Toko Fukawa - Ultimate Writing Prodigy - Has a huge inferiority complex. I don't know what caused her this kind of complex, but I don't want to have anything with her.

Yasuhiro Hagakure - Ultimate Clairvoyant - An idiot. One of the stupidest people I ever met. Completely useless for me.

Potential enemies:

(Fake) Junko Enoshima - Ultimate Fashionista - A high possibility that she's related to the mastermind, but there's is a slight chance that she's not, but I'm sure she isn't the real Junko Enoshima. Can't be trusted at all. Further investigation regarding her identity, and her reason for replacing the real Junko are required. If she's connected to the mastermind, seeing that it looks to them as they didn't succeed in erasing my memory, there is a chance that she'll try to kill me.

Kiyotaka Ishimaru - Ultimate Moral Compass - Annoying. So. Fucking. Annoying. He's not a bad guy, but he's overly bossy, shouts all the time, and his whole attitude is annoying. I don't want anything to do with this guy.

Enemies:

Mondo Owada - Ultimate Biker Gang Leader - Has a very short temper. Can be easily provoked. Since the opening ceremony, he seems to hold a grudge against me. He is the most hostile against me, and if provoked enough, there is a chance that he'll try to kill me.

Monokuma - His actions indicate that he enjoys the desperation of the other Ultimates. He gets serious only when speaking about the schools' regulations. His motive is unknown. After observation, I deduced that he isn't one of the Ultimates, but there is a chance that he has a connection to (fake) Junko. There's also the chances that there are others besides (fake) Junko, who are cooperating with him, and (fake) Junko, considering how I immediately realized she was fake, deliberately revealed herself, to make me focus on her, instead of looking for another spy. As of now, I have no choice but to listen to what he says. As I mentioned in (fake) Junko's paragraph, there is a chance that he'll order (fake) Junko, or some other spy he has within the students, to kill me.

Special Note:

As there is no guarantee that there aren't more people within the school, there is a chance that I'll add more people to this list.

Sorry for the short chapter...
