The answers from the children all entertained Monokuma incredibly. They were definitely an interesting set of students, some reminding him of the ones at Hope's Peak, some being unlike teens he had seen before. This would be a fun life of mutual killing.

He first turned to Luna, "Why, I'm a bear, can't you see? Upupupupu!"

"I think she meant, what are you?" Carlos interjected, arms crossed, "A puppet? You seem too responsive to be a robot unless you're some high tech animatronic."

"Look, loose lips," Monokuma rose a clawed paw at Carlos, "I ain't a puppet! Puppets ain't got shit on me!"

The bear then turned to Sam, "Oh, what's going on?" The bear burst out into a fit of "Upupupupus" that sounded reminiscent to laughter.

"Today is the first day in your new lives of mutual killing!"

The word killing caused Carlos to widen his eyes and ask, "Are you... What? Killing?!"

"Like a training simulator?" Ryan offered, hoping to find a good reason for all of this.

"If by surprising the gods you got to Heaven or splitting hell wide open is a simulator," Monokuma pondered, "Yeah, sure, why not?" It was obvious to tell the creature was serious.
