When you give Byakuya a present, he will give you a different reaction depending on how much he likes it. There are two possible reactions for each "tier" of present (apart from "OK"), and which of the two reactions you receive is random. Each line is a separate response.

Loves
Now this is a rare moment. Coming from a noble family, I've never been exposed to such vulgarity.
Interesting. I think I'll keep it.
You...you bastard! How did you get your hands on this!?
Even the collective force of the entire Togami Corporation wouldn't be enough to obtain this gem!
I... I'm going to hold on to this!
Likes
...Fine, I'll take it. I hope you appreciate this.
Normally I would expect something a little nicer, but...
Hmm... You get an F+. You pass, but barely.
OK
...
If you insist, I suppose I can accept it.
Dislikes
I don't blame you for trying to buy other people's affection.
But if you're going to do that, at least give them something a little better than...whatever this is.
You think you can move me with this?
I'm not so easily impressed.
Hates
...You expect me to *touch* that?
That thing makes my skin crawl. I'd rather kill you and be done with it.
I don't take kindly to people trying to make a fool of me.
There is no reality in which I would be happy to receive such garbage.

Free Time Event Dialogue & Option Guide[]

Full dialogue from Byakuya's Free Time Events:

Introduction[]

???
Name's Byakuya Togami.
Hi, uh...nice to meet you.
...
That's the most half-assed introduction I've ever heard...
But there isn't really anything I can do about it.
Even among the ultimate students, this one is special.
Byakuya Togami... He's the heir apparent if his family's massive financial conglomerate.
He's already started managing business operations, and his own personal assets are, well, vast.
His title of Ultimate Affluent Progeny is completely accurate. He's the definition of "expectional."
That's everything I learned about him from that Hope's Peak Academy thread online.
We're done with introductions, right? How much longer are you going to stand here?
Go away. I'm sick of looking at you.
His aura says to me, "You and I will never stand on the same level." Like a king in training...

...
I have a question for you.
Huh? You do?
Something's been bothering me for a while now, and I can't take it anymore. So to answer my question...
...I need you to explain to me what exactly your "Ultimate Lucky Student" title means.
Oh, well...
I don't totally get it myself, but...
...what I do know is that I was picked at random from a pool of normal students.
So you just got into Hope's Peak by blind luck.
I see. Well, that answers my question.
What was the question...?
How a commoner like you, with absolutely no unique talents or abilities, could get into this school.
Oh, I forgot to mention boring. How a boring, untalented, utterly generic commoner got in...
Boring? Generic...?
D-Did you really have to list all that off?
But it's the truth.
Maybe compared to you, the Ultimate Affluent Progeny and all...
But even I-!
You seem to think it's merely an issue of title. But make no mistake...
My lineage, intelligence, figure, athletic ability—they are all ultimate.
Which is to say, I am the Ultimate Perfection. Feel free to begin calling me that, in fact.
He's really taking this to the extreme...
You, who have nothing. I, who have everything. We are living proof that all men are *not* created equal.
You have my pity, Makoto. Life can be very cruel indeed.
...
And because I pity you so much, perhaps someday I'll allow you to hear my tale of glory.
Consider it a blessing, a gift from me to you, to allow you to bask in my glory.
Having finished his mean-spirited lecture, Byakuya left me standing there in silence.
I learned one thing about Byakuya today...
Anytime I talk to him, I need to be prepared for extreme psychological trauma.
I did my best to keep my spirit from shattering like glass, and went back to my room.
Byakuya's Report Card has been updated based on your experience with him.
You just unlocked the skill Cool and Composed!




Free Time Event 2 (Page 3)[]

Spend some time with Byakuya
Just to be clear, being the Ultimate Affluent Progeny is only one of my many talents.
Some people think I rely on the care and protection of the Togami name.
Huh? Is this a monologue or something...?
But I don't rely on my family. Rather, I am my family's savior.
The Togami Corporation reaches across the world, true, but I will take us to even greater heights.
It is expected of me, naturally. After all, even my own family has recognized my ultimate superiority.
In other words, even among the Togami family, I am the chosen among the chosen.
So much confidence...
And that confidence is justified, I assure you. It comes from the battles I've fought and won.
Battles...?
I am personally worth over 4 billion dollars, separate from my Togami family assets.
H-How the heck did you make that much money!?
The stock market.
I buy and sell shares and assets, based on market trends, all within a single day.
Surely even someone as simple-minded as you has heard of this technique.
So he buys and sells stuff on the stock market, doing everything in a single day. I think that's called...
Trading cards
Are you talking about, like...trading cards? Those can be pretty valuable, right?
Is that a serious answer? What, is that a hobby of yours or something?
Such an ignorant, unwashed-masses type of hobby...
N-No, I didn't mean—I misspoke, okay?
Trademarks
Oh, I get it! You're talking about trademarks, right?
...
H-Hey, are you okay?
Yet another reminder of what a base, semi-sentient creature you are...
I'm beginning to hate interacting with you. Goodbye.
H-Hold on! Okay, so it's not trademarks...
Day trading
You're talking about day trading, right?
And you were able to make 4 billion dollars doing that?
Well, I first started doing it just to keep myself occupied, and before I knew it...there it was.
It's really not a big deal.
I'd say it's a SUPER big deal!
Wait, but are high schoolers even allowed to buy stocks and stuff?
...I'm Byakuya Togami.
Is that...meant to be an explanation?
4 billion dollars is nothing to the Togami Corporation, but for personal use, it's not bad.
So now you understand, right? I'm not merely the child of modern-day nobility.
You know, Byakuya...
Maybe we should start calling you the Ultimate Day Trader!
Oh, I don't do that anymore. It was too simple, so I got bored of it pretty quickly.
Jeez, do you realize how insulting that sounds to the rest of us...?
Of course, that's how I feel about anything I do.
Frankly, life is too easy.
It's only natural for me to do whatever I want in this world.
Man, he really is confident.
We're like worlds apart...
*Galaxies* apart...
Still reeling from Byakuya's story, and went back to my room.

Free Time Event 3 (Page 4)[]

Spend some time with Byakuya
Listen, Makoto. I wanted to ask you something.
What could Byakuya want to talk to *me* about?
l have a bad feeling about this...
Oh, umm... Sure, what's up?
You know...only a chosen few, perhaps 1% of us, are able to succeed in life.
For the other 99%, their dreams never come true. Some never even have a dream in the first place...
Spending every waking hour toiling to scrap together a meager living, just barely getting by...
I just don't understand. Is there any meaning to a life like that?
Why are you asking me...?
Because you're part of that 99%, of course. Why did you even feel the need to ask?
I knew he was gonna insult me somehow...
Up until now, I've never been around anyone like that. So I'm interested...
So tell me, how does it feel to live a life without hope, without potential or ambition or dreams?
C-Come on!
I don't have ambition, or dreams? I've never felt that way about myself!
I mean sure, maybe I'll never be as rich as you or anything, but...
...do you have to go around saying that to everyone? Can you only be happy by being better than others?
Your complaints are as old and tired as a third-rate pop song from any generation...
And yet, those are the words of the 99%. That is how you find comfort in your tiny, cold little world.
S-Stop saying stuff like that!
Sorry, I can't not speak the truth.
No matter how much you push and struggle, people like you will never be in a position to change the world.
You could all disappear tomorrow, and nothing would change. Your existence is of no consequence.
Whether that's true or not, it doesn't matter.
Even if you live a totally normal, unimportant life, you can still find happiness in that.
If I can live a life that I'm satisfied with, that's all that matters.
If I spent all my time comparing my life to other people's, I'd never be happy.
Sure, maybe you can do that. You were guaranteed success from the day you were born, so—
Hold it!
From the day I was born? You have no idea...
You don't have a clue what you're talking about!
What...?
Those who are "chosen" from birth have no concept of what that truly means.
I have gone to battle and emerged victorious. *That* is why I am the chosen.
Wh-What are you talking about...?
You're spoiled, all of you. Running away into a world of self-indulgence.
Battle, competition, rivalry—you run away from it all.
*That* is why the 99% walk the path that they do.
Good god, your absolute lack of understanding makes me want to weep.
After showing a surprising amount of emotion, Byakuya quickly made his exit.
What the heck got into him?
He was acting totally normal, up until...
Until I said something about being guaranteed success from the day he was born...
I wonder why that set him off...
I couldn't stop thinking about Byakuya while went back to my room.
Byakuya's Report Card has been updated based on your experience with him.
You just unlocked the skill Envious Influence!

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
...Huh?
It's a proverb.
It means if you can only obtain something inferior, that's still better than longing for something better.
Yeah, I know what it means. But...so what?
Put another way, if all you have nearby is a loser, that's better than a proper assistant far away.
Makoto. Be my secretary.
What...?
A useless commoner like you could never hope to earn more than, say, 100,000 dollars a year.
But as my secretary, you would be guaranteed an ample salary and job security for the rest of your life.
And in honor of it being my birthday today...
...how about I multiply your already impossible expectations by, oh, 5.5?
100,000 dollars times 5.5? You mean...?
5.5 million dollars?
What!? You wanna pay me 5.5 million dollars a year!?
You'd better check your math on that.
Gh...
Or is that a request? I could pay you that kind of salary, but...
...I would have to raise my expectations for you accordingly.
Y-Yeah, I was just kidding!
I don't wanna do the math
100,000 dollars times 5.5? I'm afraid to even do the math on that...
What? Did your brain freeze up trying to comprehend that much money?
Y-Yeah, something like that...
Regardless, it's on you. I can't draw up a contract until you name your price.
550,000 dollars?
550,000 dollars!? That's like, board member money!
Of course, as my secretary you wouldn't be a mere servant.
At some point, I would want you to become an actual assistant, taking the lead on important projects.
Assuming you produce acceptable results, you could even become a core part of the Togami Corporation.
You have no reason to refuse.
This is all so sudden... I don't get why... But he seems serious about it...
Still, I...
I'm sorry, but I'm gonna hafta say no.
...
I'm trying to give you a chance to enter the battlefield of life and claim victory.
Most commoners will never get that chance. This is literally a once-in-a-Iifetime opportunity.
Do you understand? This is your chance.
This is your one and only chance to rise above the 99%.
Are you really so scared of having to fight, to compete, in order to win?
It's not that I'm scared...
It's that I want to succeed based on my own effort. I want to find my own battlefield...
I don't want it handed to me—I want to earn it.
I want to find something I'm willing to fight and die for. That's the only way I'll be satisfied.
...
Then you meant what you said earlier...
That if you can live a life that you're satisfied with, that's all that matters...
Hmm... I'm glad to see you passed my test.
Huh? Your test?
That's right. The mere thought of someone like you as my secretary makes me physically ill.
Wait, so then...
The salary offer still stands, of course. It's yours if you want it.
I don't need you spreading rumors that Byakuya Togami doesn't honor his word.
So he'd basically be paying me...to do nothing?
In a way...l almost regret my decision.
But I must say, I just don't understand you.
You don't want to fight, and yet you don't flee from the battle, either.
It's like I said...
For me, happiness comes from living the life I want to live.
Hmph. Easy enough to say.
Now you have to enforce your will until the very end.
If you can do that, if you can make it to the end, I'm afraid I'll be forced to acknowledge you...
Then that's exactly what I'll do.
Someday, absolutely...
I don't expect much from you, but I'll be waiting.
Once we were all done, I headed back to my room for a little while...

Free Time Event 5 (Page 6)[]

Spend some time with Byakuya
...
How do you still not understand?
...Understand what?
I've been sacrificing all this valuable time of mine for *your* sake.
But it's all amounted to nothing.
We simply have nothing to talk about.
We could talk forever and a day, and I would gain nothing from it.
B-But, the more we come to understand each other—
You and I will *never* understand each other.
We live in different worlds. Our ways of life, our ways of thinking are totally incompatible.
You're a loser. So go ahead and live your loser life, make a bunch of loser friends.
Then together, you can lick each other's loser wounds.
You don't have to keep saying loser...
Whether your self-indulgence is a lie or not, it doesn't matter.
Whatever happens, I'm going to keep on fighting, and I'm going to keep on winning.
That's one thing that will never change.
But having to win all the time... Doesn't that make your life kinda hard?
Such is the fate of the chosen.
The chosen...
Listen, I've been meaning to ask you...
You keep talking about "the chosen"... What does that mean, exactly?
The way you say it, it seems a lot heavier than how I'd normally think of it...
...
Fine. If I'm going to waste my time with you anyway, I may as well explain this one last thing.
I'll tell you how I became known as the Ultimate Affluent Progeny...
There's a story behind that...?
It has to do with the secret to the Togami family's prosperity.
Our success comes from our family's rather...peculiar inheritance system.
Peculiar inheritance—what do you mean?
You see, our family head never takes a wife.
Rather, he couples with exceptional women the world over, in order to bear as many children as possible.
All over the world...?
They then make the children compete, and only one can come out on top.
And whoever it is...earns the right to become the next head of the family.
You mean...you have to fight your own brothers and sisters!?
For my battle, there were fifteen of us in total.
When all was said and done, only one was still standing—the youngest brother. Me.
In the entire history of the Togami family, the youngest male had never won.
Jeez, that sounds brutal.
I can't even imagine something like that...
So, now do you understand?
I won my title in open combat. *That* is how l became the Ultimate Affluent Progeny.
I was not born into greatness. I had to earn it.
I put my life on the line, and I *earned* the right to be called the chosen.
You put your life on the line...? Then...what about your siblings?
Dead.
D-Dead!?
I don't mean that literally, of course. They become dead to the family, unfit for the name of Togami.
Of course, for them it really is like death. They're forced to become one of the 99%. One of *you*.
But it must've been really hard, right?
You can't even imagine. Which is why the survivor is recognized as the chosen.
When you take over as the head of the family, all the weight of that family comes to rest on your shoulders.
That is how dedicated I am. I am forever dedicated to keep on winning.
And so I shall.
Otherwise, I would feel only pity for those I'd already defeated.
Byakuya pretty much said he carries the weight of always having to win...
Winning comes natural to him...
All I'll say at this point, is that I'm going to win *this* game, too.
It's been a long time since I've had so much fun. I need to get as much enjoyment out of it as possible.
And in the end, I will stand victorious. I won't lose to the mastermind or you or anyone else.
Even as the rest of you fall one by one, I will live and I will win.
As long as my name is Byakuya Togami.
The finality of his statement left no room for doubt or question.
Nobody but Byakuya could talk that way and sound so convincing.
But because it's him, it seems possible that maybe that *is* his fate...
Honestly, the more I talk to him, the more I see how far apart we are.
At the same time, I feel like I understand him that much more...
At least...I *think* I do...
Now let me be crystal clear—we no longer have anything to talk about. Do not come to me like this again.
Goodbye, loser.
I can't imagine any way Byakuya and I could ever become friends in this lifetime...
Once Byakuya was gone, I went back to my room.
