Hello and welcome, I am excited to announce the first ever skk mixtape fic exchange, currently planned for 2025!
I am just getting started on fully planning this event out, however I wanted to start setting up a place to share information, run polls, and answer questions related to the exchange. As I move further along in the planning process, things will shape up into a more formal exchange blog, but for now I simply wanted a central location for everything to be held.
What is a mixtape exchange? A mixtape exchange is a fandom gift exchange where, instead of giving prompts, you instead choose a song to be used as the prompt. The person creating your gift will then pull their inspiration from the song you shared, using lyrics, rhythm, and/or tone of the song.
What is the theme of this exchange? This particular exchange will focus on Soukoku, or the relationship between Dazai Osamu and Nakahara Chuuya from Bungou Stray Dogs.
What kind of works will be expected for this exchange? For the first exchange, we will be open for fanfiction only. This is subject to change in the future.
Meet the team Abram / @altruistic-meme : creator of the exchange - that's it for now! mods will be added as I find them -
Please do not hesitate to ask questions or send feedback!
Thank you, Abram 🧡
Happy Mootsgiving, everyone!
So, technically, I know Thanksgiving is an American holiday… history… yadda yadda. However, this is not Thanksgiving.
This is Mootsgiving, and what I say goes ‘cause this is my holiday. Anyway! Mootsgiving is all the basic ideas of Thankgiving but better because I’m great like that.
I just wanted to show everyone how grateful I am, since gratefulness is a key principle of Thanksgiving.
I want all my moots from different countries to be able to have the picture-perfect movie-esque Thanksgiving of being surrounded by friends and family with all the care and love and gratefulness that can be poured into a single human. And, as the ever-dramatic Runar, what better way to do that than to organize a huge event?
So! Rules!
State what food you brought
State one thing you’re thankful for
My name is Runar, I brought the eggnog, and I’m grateful for each and every one of you 💗🫶
Really sappy and really long paragraph/speech under the cut!!
Soooo… to start off my big long speech… *clinks my fancy wine glass that’s filled with a mysterious substance* (It’s eggnog)
When I first started this blog, it was off a whim. I wanted to do something, something that involved putting my work out there, as I was just starting out. I wanted to mean something. In any sort of way, I wanted to leave a sort of mark. Not just any mark, though, no. I wanted to add a bit of joy, a spark of life that comes from creativity, and adding words and love into the space we occupy on this floating rock in space.
I wanted to write because it made me happy, and I wanted there to be a possibility of someone who was who got joy from reading to maybe stumble upon it, and get joy from me. Get joy from something I was able to provide for them.
I was also incredibly lonely. I had no friends, I had nothing, pretty much. I didn’t talk much. I was reclusive. I was okay, but I was empty. I didn’t have a purpose. And while I wasn’t expecting much, nothing at all really, I was overjoyed at the prospect that maybe just one person would stumble upon something I wrote and for a moment of their day, maybe they got peace from it.
Maybe they felt a little less lonely. I would have been at peace with just knowing the possibility of it was out there. And then… it did. And I got more than I bargained for, even, I got a friend. My first friend.
From there, everything… clicked. Slowly, but ever so surely, things were falling into place. I was gaining something that had not even crossed my mind. A family.
So, my silly dream born from a whim became friends, connections, and family, it became life-altering. It had ups, it had downs, it had in-betweens. It was beautiful and messy and happy and sad and fucked up and so wonderfully… human?
Yeah, this is online, this is a silly mootsgiving idea I thought up three hours ago because I wanted people to know I love them.
But to someone who had nothing, this is everything. You are everything.
Even if we’ve only talked one time, you have a special place in my heart. The character growth has been… one hell of a ride. I’ve gone through many eras, and made new friends in each and every one of them. So, with the end of the year closing soon, I suppose in a way this is not just a silly mootsgiving.
My bigger end goal, really, was to make sure as we get to the end of this ear, you know how genuinely important this whole year has been to me. How important you have been. I got an anon ask,
What does it feel like to be wanted?
It was beautiful poetry. I replied, said I wouldn’t know what it feels like to be wanted. But really? I think maybe I do. I think it feels like having enough people that you love to organize and invite everyone to a huge event online, to write out this heartfelt paragraph and trust that at least one person will care enough to read it.
My beginning goal has changed so much, and not at all. My biggest purpose in life has been, and I think will always be, to add something into this world.
Creativity, joy, happiness, compassion, I want to ensure that no matter what, as long as you know me, you know you have one person on this earth who loves and cares about you with as much feeling that can physically be felt by one person without exploding into a bunch of tiny little runar pieces.
But moreso, I think maybe my goal has changed from wanting to put stories out there, to putting myself out there. I don’t want to write stories that are just fiction, just crafted ideas meshed together to create a blob of fiction.
I want to write pieces of myself into everything, which i think might genuinely be impossible to not do. I want my heart to pour out of my fingers into the things i type out for you, and i want to not only feel things, but to maybe make you feel something too. Something warm and fuzzy, something good, as good as you deserve.
Aaaaannnd…. to end this….
I love you guys, thanks for being here <3

Hi! So, a friend of mine (@xkaez) made an SKK bsd discord for 18+ only peeps, and it's been so much fun being there that I just felt like I had to share it. So, if any of my mooties see this, I'd love to see more of you there to talk about our favorite ship, wips, and arts together! Please only join if you are 18+. I'll post the link in my page intro as well. Link here!
after much consideration, i am planning to host a soukoku mixtape exchange!
there are not any dates or solid plans for it yet, but i wanted to go ahead and do an interest check so that i could have an idea of how many people might be interested in participating in such an event, to help me figure out what kind of help/setup i may need for it!
what is a mixtape exchange?: a mixtape exchange is a type of fandom gift exchange where, instead of giving prompts, you instead choose a song and that will be sent to your assigned gifter to use as inspiration for your present!
this exchange would be focused on soukoku specifically
*if you would be willing to be a beta/pinch hitter AND a writer, please choose writer! or if you are willing to be a beta AND pinch hitter, please choose beta!
*if you chose one of the bottom two answers, PLEASE tell me about it! nothing is really planned yet so there is always a possibility that i will be more than willing to discuss what it is you're looking at/what may be holding you back!
*i know i did not include artists, i'm very sorry! but as this is my first time attempting to run an event, i am probably going to limit it to writers only. if the event goes well, i may do another one that DOES include artists as well, but for my own sanity i won't be doing it for the first one.
FEEL FREE TO SEND ME ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE! But also please be aware that i may not yet have solid answers as, again, the event hasn't actually been planned!

It's that time of year when it's time to turn into a sap for two minutes and give my heartful thanks for all the things that have gone right this year. Man, what a time - what a year! It's gone by so quickly, but let me take a moment to reflect and share what I'm thankful for. :)
Back in April, when I finally actively started using Tumblr (I had made the account previously but never used it, so congratulations to my three years on Tumblr, I guess? lol ^^;), I didn't think I would make friends through it. I thought I would occasionally post something about BSD and call it a day. Maybe only post fic updates because Kitten Era was in the works, and I didn't think I would have much interaction with anyone.
And then, with all my shitposting and talking into the void, I came upon a very special friend, @anticidic. I'm thankful for you because you have challenged my writing and turned my crack into genuine fics (honestly, it still sends), and you're a great source of inspiration when I need it. I've also turned into a bit of a gremlin since then... so I apologize. We've shared lots of laughs and giggles since we've met. I'm happy to have met you and be your friend.
My next big thanks go to @k-aez for the Discord server. I thought branching out and talking to others with similar interests would be fun (didn't want to only talk Rosie's ears off), and it was like entering a humble little home with other BSD artists and writers. It's been such a blast and a wonderful time getting to be a part of such a wonderful group of people! I also really like the way you say boar... it sounds nice, hehe.
My next big thanks go to @iwantmochisoup for being a wonderful friend and making all the lovely catzai art that fuels my inspiration, hehe. Besides your art, I'm happy to have met you, haunted ghosts, and talked BSD with you. You've become super brave, and I'm super proud of you!
I also want to thank @msshinylemon @spccts @nevertheblood for sprint writing with me on days when I felt I had no motivation. Catching you guys sprinting motivates me to get my thoughts together, and I love it when we give each other little pats on the backs for even the one sentence we manage to crank out some days, lol! The life of a writer, am I right?
I also want to thank my AO3 readers. I never expected anyone to enjoy the silly things I put out or the writing that I did, and honestly, I might have stopped after KE was done, and ghosted like I was never there. And then WIP after WIP later, I'm still here.
To my mooties, you guys rock, and if you are reading this, just know I'm happy that we've interacted before in some way, shape, or form. I wish you all the best and the most filling Thanksgiving ever! I'm thankful for all of you.
