Piano Trio

Piano Trio is the poly ship between Kaede Akamatsu, Mari and Monika from the Danganronpa, Omori and Doki Doki Literature Club! fandoms.

Canon
The three have never actually met, neither exist in the same universe. The three are pretty similar though. The three all play and love the piano, and it is their hobbies. Monika and Mari could also be considered as the "Ultimate Pianist", as they are good. But since Kaede's Ultimate is the Ultimate Pianist, it may imply she is the best at playing the Piano out of the two. The three also wear a skirt, and for Kaede and Monika they wear school uniforms.

Mari and Kaede died from hanging, though it was only believed Mari died from hanging. So in reality Kaede is the only one who died in that way, and Monika had driven someone to hang themselves. Meaning Mari and Kaede had been victims while Monika had "killed" someone. The three have slightly the same personality's, the three can be a bit of perfectionists at times, the three are lighthearted as well. The three almost have the same length, though Monika's hair length is a bit longer. The three also wear something around their necks, a ribbon for Monika and Mari and a tie for Kaede.

Monika and Kaede are implied to be LGBTQ+, but Mari isn't implied to LGBTQ+. Though fans like to headcanon that the three are bisexual or pansexual. Monika doesn't care about the MC's gender, while Kaede often flirts with the same sex, though Mari never mentions this, and is inlove with the opposite sex. The three have never dyed their hair, though if Mari lived for a little longer her hair would have been purple. The three also have an "M" in their names, but Kaede only has "M" in her last name. The three don't have a lot of differences together the only things are their eye color and other physical features. The three often flirt with their implied love interests.

Fanon
Fans of the pair often like to joke around that the three would practice piano together, or help each other practice. Though this is mostly a crackship and is shipped since the three love the piano, and their similarity's. There is not to many fanwork made for the two, there is some fanart of them practicing piano, or even them being friends and playing around. Fans prefer shipping them in friendship instead of a polyship. Some rivals of the three are Sayonika, Irumatsu and Picnic Sandwich, or some may prefer Mari's ship with Kaede and in rare cases Mari's ship with Monika.
