Both the real life Osamu Dazai and Fyodor Dostoevsky drew.
Fyodor Dostoevsky was known to sketch in his manuscripts. Osamu Dazai painted with oils and was very interested in fine arts. Fun fact the main character in No Longer Human also wanted to go to art school and become an artist. There's actually a lot of mention of yozo liking making art in no longer human.
So of course i had to draw their twink versions painting together. <3
re-reading a book feels like visiting an old friend who never changed since your time apart, but you see them differently and you notice new things about them because you have.🥹
akutagawa, climbing through the agency's window:
kunikida: hold it right there
akutagawa, scowling: i am not here for conflict, though i will not hesitate if it arises--
kunikida: yeah i know; ur here to see atsushi

akutagawa, immediately forgetting his protests: you wish to keep me apart from him--
kunikida: look, brat, atsushi is in trouble right now, he can't see you--
akutagawa, worried and angry: is he hurt? why did no one inform--
kunikida: what? no!

akutagawa:
akutagawa: what
kunikida: but since your already here, here's the agency's grocery list for the week
akutagawa:
kunikida: you can see atsushi again next week
akutagawa:
akutagawa: does it matter which brands i get or--

In my dream my beloved friend looked at me with these eyes. I never loved you eyes. What did you say about me eyes. Don’t call me Odasaku eyes. God bless im not into that shit anymore. If someone prefer to play drama rather than talk as adults I don’t give a shit. It still hurts though
i just know henry winter would have the most atrocious blue eyed stare
''the secret history vibe is studying hard and loving the classics'' so close! the secret history vibe is a close group of pretentious idiots who secretly hate each other murdering people for the vibe and ignoring the concepts of the moon landing and hypothermia
I like the fact that Daphne Hardy gave the name “darkness at noon” for Koestler’s book because she was the first one who translate it to English and it also was the only one version of the book left after the original carbon copy was lost. Until 2015 when student found it in archive Daphne’s translation was reading around the world for 79 years. I think this is so beautiful. Oh, I forgot to say they were lovers

fun life update: went to con, got whiteboy wasted while dressed as chuuya and got an ambulance called on me bc my knee gave out (nothing serious just some bruising/ a guy dressed as luffy freaked the fuck out and called the ambulance lol)
but also overall got to meet a lot of nice people!! one girl gave me a "fav cosplay award" on the second day while (i was pm dazai on day 2 hehe)
