gamer rain who also loves creating games. everything from coding to design, he has a knack for all of it.
for christmas he makes each of the ghouls their own personalised minigame :')
aurora gets an arcade claw machine simulator
dew gets his own version of pacman
mountain is gifted with one of those relaxing zen games that have pretty graphics
phantom gets a car parking game because he's obsessed with the idea of parking (it's the autism)
cumulus gets a lil jumpscare horror game like Granny
swiss receives a cookie clicker type game
cirrus is in love with the racing game she got
aether doesn't use technology so is given monopoly but each place is the location of somewhere they've made memories together
rain's love language is giving gifts and he's so damn good at it
That one pic
i miss my kids please let me see them again
More of this concept because you guys really seemed to like it. Who's submissive and agreeable now, bitch
what if. what if when akutagawa really misses his boyfriend, he puts on one of atsushi's sweaters, hides his face into the fabric and uses rashomon to wrap it tighter around himself like a self-hug and imagines being in atsushi's arms instead. what then
Say it with me, everyone.
ARO DOES NOT EQUAL ACE.
ACE DOES NOT EQUAL ARO.
SOMETIMES PEOPLE ARE BOTH. THAT DOES NOT MEAN THEY ARE THE SAME.
AROMANTIC AND ASEXUAL ARE DIFFERENT, AND SHOULD BE RESPECTED AS SUCH.
edit: holy shit, this post has gotten so popular it's getting aphobia notes! thanks y'all
Granite is underrated. It hits so hard, Vessel's voice is gorgeous in it, and the way it transitions from the lighter music to the heavier stuff but still retains the threads running through it is just amazing. And again, Vessel's voice. The way it wavers on "but I am." The fact that the song is clean vocals alone but still conveys the deep, deep anger that Vessel feels. 10000/10 song, would scream to it again.
What are your favourite akuatsu fics?
If you're looking for recommendations, please try checking out my fic recs tag! The bsd fic tag is where I reblog all the fics I want to reread later, so I think that's a good starting point as well (although please note that my queue is still stuck on April 2023, so it'll take a while for fics that I've read after that date to be reblogged).
If I had to name my favourite fics... I haven't been reading a lot of fics recently, and it always makes me uneasy to put down a list because I definitely am going to forget some that I adore and it feels unfair, but on the very top of my mind (and also with the disclaimer of these being like, personal favourites. Not necessarily recommendations, just some fics that I love reading to no end)
↳ fermata by ayanuz (zigur)
Friends to lovers sskk mean so much to me
↳ Chapter 2: While the Other is "Asleep" from my pretty baby holds me down by ChaSeuBao
Without exaggeration, I know this fic by heart at this point. I just have such a soft spot for it, I've read it very early when I got into the fandom, and it's such a young and carefree portrayal of sskk, it tastes so sweet. I feel like it shaped a lot of how I see sskk.
↳ someone to share the silence by UnicornFlowers
Don't we all need Akutagawa breaking down from time to time
↳ midnight, somewhere by hybridsunshine
I love sskk being sskk. When their relationship is so personal and unique and specific to them that you can't put labels on it.
↳ split lips, soft teeth by wildsuns
An incredible fic, honestly. Rewinds my brain every time.
↳ I love you by averagecerealenjoyer
I love this one so much it's only 822 words so it's the perfect fic to read right before going to sleep when you're too tired to do anything else. I've read this one countless times.
↳ i’m safe! i’m whole! i've got it under control! and pretty much everything else by lizandre
Their works are like a sskk bible to me. Unbealivably good prose and spectacular characterization. Truth to be told I can never read their works too often because they will send me into an exhistential crisis / will not be able to think about anything else for the rest of the day.
↳ For hunger is to give the body what it knows it cannot keep by hannieuphoria
That awkward moment you're so blown away by a fic you end up surpassing the comments words limit. I have a thing for sskk finding the strenght to be soft with each other.
Chuuya: Atsushi kissed you?
Akutagawa: *staring woefully out of his window*
Chuuya: and you said thank you…?
Akutagwa: yeah
Chuuya: Oh, cool
———— meanwhile ————
Atsushi: thank you?!?! WHAT DOES THAT MEAN
Dazai: he’s stupid Atsushi you know that
