Has Anyone Figured Out How Much Art You Need To Make To Make Your Mental Illness Go Away

Poor Dazai...

Hello! Trick or treat? 🩸

Off the beaten path past the row of trees and over the gnarled roots that lined the way, you discovered a treasure chest at the end. In plain sight. The wind picked up, but other than that, you are all alone, and nothing seemed amiss as you stepped closer and peered inside for your goodies. 👻

The made-up lives lost. The charade. The demand that he burned in hell. Was he sorry he couldn't be what he wanted to be—a good person? Chuuya elaborated after having time to think about it: “But I know who you are now,” he paused to let that sink in before quickly continuing, “I mean, I don’t know you at all. But I know enough that who you aren’t isn’t the same from what I’ve heard.” “What makes you say that?” Dazai’s lips curled at the corners and exposed teeth. “I could kill you and you wouldn’t even know it.”

ask box trick-or-treat (fic writer edition)

please just take a moment with me to appreciate how "s'envoyer en l'air" has so much comedic potential as an expression considering Chuuya's ability and how much mileage two teenagers who love antagonizing each other could get out of it

“characters in fic are too good at identifying scents” is officially an “his eyes did not literally darken” level of complaint to me now like it’s about the drama it’s about the romance it’s about atmosphere it’s about taking you to a heightened version of reality!!! please suspend your disbelief at least enough for vibes-based sensory descriptions it will be So Worth It i promise

“ao3 should have an algorithm” ao3 should continue only giving me exactly what I ask for which happens because I know how to use the search, sort, and filter functions

i recently hit 500 followers so what better way to celebrate than thirsting over chuuya? i've been having A Time lately but your kind comments mean the world to me ♡

Dazai's bandages coming loose sometimes and catching on things

He tries to leave the room and his bandages just catch on the doorknob

Or, or, he's in the middle of doing something intense like engaging against an enemy and he didn't properly secure his bandages so layers just start falling off like he's a dog shedding hair while he's throwing punches.

And while he was 15-18, the bandages around his hair getting loose and sagging down his face and Chuuya's fighting the urge to laugh and Dazai just gives him a total wet cat look and hides his face and tells no one to look at him. It happens once while they're on a mission and the bandages slide down his face and cover both eyes at one point and Dazai complains he can't see

Chuuya sees a neck bandage flapping in the breeze and he grabs it and yanks Dazai back when Dazai tries to stop off

...the bandages around his head completely coming off while an enemy has a gun aimed at him and Dazai tells the dude to give him a moment to wrap the bandages around his head again

“We hope this email finds you well” babe, the only emails I hope find me well are the ones from Archive of Our Own
