Ship: Chuuya x Dazai (Soukoku)
TW: Major Character Death, Angst, Major Angst, No happy ending, I love making characters go through hell, except Chuuya, which is why this isn’t in his pov, I felt evil today
Since the first time Dazai had witnessed the storm that was Arahabaki, Chuuya, he was enthralled.
Chuuya was human. So painfully human. So beautifully human.
After all, there was nothing more human than chaos and discord. The human need to find the most perfect, the most orderly form of chaos.
Chuuya was chaotic and he was perfect. The perfect form of chaos.
Human.
Chuuya was human.
Human.

For the first time since Dazai witnessed the storm that was Arahabaki, Chuuya, he wasn’t enthralled.
Chuuya was human. So painfully human. So horrendously human.
After all, there was nothing more human than life and death. The conclusion to a human life, the inevitable cessation.
Chuuya was deadly and he was corrupt.
Human.
Chuuya was human.
Blood.
So much blood.
There was a burning in his chest from having run here.
He fell to his knees with no regard for the rubble beneath him. He pulled Chuuya into his arms.
Red. So much red.
Yet the body he was clinging to like a child to a stuffed animal was cold.
He could feel the lingering warmth leaving the body and seeping into his own in a cruel twist of fate.
He could feel as the warmth entered his own freezing body.
There was an annoying chattering sound somewhere in the rubble.
It was cold. It was cold and the body in his arms was becoming freezing to the touch but he couldn’t let go even as he shivered.
Chuuya was covered in red, further staining his abdomen in sticky red.
Cold.
It was so cold.
He curled himself over Chuuya as if to shield him from the cold, cruel world.
He was tired and cold.
He shivered, closing his eyes, pretending Chuuya wasn’t so freezing in his arms.
…
So cold…

It had been raining nearly all day. He couldn’t help but think it was painfully fitting.
The gravestone was large and elegant. It was surrounded by droves of people clad in black. Only those closest were allowed to be up near the grave.
When he finally made it up to the grave with the others, his melancholy grew.
In the middle of the gravestone, in large, fancy font was the word Soukoku. Below that on the left was Chuuya Nakahara and on the right was Osamu Dazai.
Apparently, when they were found together, it first looked as if only Dazai was clinging to Chuuya, but Chuuya had his hand clenched around Dazai’s coat as well. Out of respect, they weren’t separated.
He was startled out of his thoughts when he felt someone grab his arm. He looked up only to realize most people had left after the rain had gotten worse. He looked to his side before relaxing at the sight of Kyouka.
“Thank you.”

i could’ve fixed geto.
Based on an actual thing that kept happing with my sister and brother
They go to yokai school or smth 🏫 don't mind the details-
So I’ve seen a lot of speculation that Carmy is going to die at the end of The Bear and tbh, I kinda hate that theory. I get that it may seem plausible with Carmy’s current character arc but I feel like it would be redundant with Mikey’s death (and possibly Marcus’ mother dying). It would also diminish one of The Bears biggest underlying themes, hope. The idea that there is life after death and that you can find happiness and love after everything you’ve been through. Mikey dying, Carmy escaping the confines of fine dining and returning home to run The Beef, to finding his very own found family, to meeting Sydney, to opening The Bear, and to hopefully embark on a healing journey, all of that would mean nothing if Carmy died in the end. Mikey didn’t hide all of that money in all of those tomato cans and leave The Beef to Carmy only for him to end up with the same fate as his big brother. Carmy’s death would do nothing more than rob Natalie of another brother, take away the love of Syd’s life, destroy Richie all over again and leave The Bear with a very void and sad finale. Not every story has to end in tragedy and death, sometimes there can be happy endings too.
