What Do You Think Of The Relationship Between Dazai And Atsushi? Atsushi Is Such A Cute Cinnamon Roll

What do you think of the relationship between dazai and atsushi? Atsushi is such a cute cinnamon roll and dazai is,um well,dazai lol. I really love their dynamic n i totally understand why u ship them :3

My moment has arrived and I am going to unleash myself on this poor anon. 

Do you have plenty of your favourite beverage? Snacks? Okay sit down and please allow me to word vomit at you now. I’ve collected screencaps for the purpose of answering this glorious ask so that it’s not just a wall of text. 

I love their relationship to bits oh my god. To start off please join me in looking at this precious cinnamon roll: 

Atsushi p l e a s e Dazai does not deserve that gaze. Dazai you’re enjoying it too much. 

Okay but on a serious note this starts off my analysis of their relationship because there’s a reason why Atsushi’s gaze is so admiring (I’d say adoring, but that’s also my shipper part talking). To start from the beginning: 

1. Dazai gives Atsushi the means to live on. 

Much later in the manga, Dazai says he had planned on a new double black since the first time he met Atsushi, and I think that’s possible considering how his mind works in terrifying ways. But I don’t think that’s the sole reason. 

Before Dazai makes his suggestion, he remembers what Atsushi said about himself, how much the boy demeaned himself. And in manga, every panel, every expression, every single thing counts. That moment of Dazai closing his eyes as he thinks of Atsushi’s words shows he wants Atsushi in the Agency for more than just practical purposes - he is showing compassion to a boy who cannot find his own self-worth.
