Bsd Bram - Blog Posts

my friend requested that I draw this silly little guy ☺️🖤

my responsibilities as a tumblr artist outweigh my physical illness

‘bram stoker is fyodor dostoyevsky’s goth wife!!’ is such a deranged sentence unless you have consumed one certain piece of media.

Teacher: the test is not difficult

Test: Wich one is Aya's father?

Spreading my anti fyodor propaganda

I'm never gonna get over them

Bsd is like an addiction. I'm not even a fan at this point. I'm actively being victimized.

VRYINF

I finally read the newest BSD chapter

And

I'm just gonna freak out under the cut and give my long ass ramble cause-

HOLY SHIT??? I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE TRANSFORMATION SCENE ANIMATED?? PRAYING IT DOESN'T GET BOTCHED! 🙏🙏

AND ALSO BRAM LIKE?? KNOWING THAT SOMETHING WAS HAPPENING TO HIM BEFORE HAND AND WARNING AYA?? HE CALLED HER PRINCESS 😭

ALSO BRAM IS DEAD?? A TRIPLE SINGULARITY? Fyodor was practically sizing Bram up in the past?? Like "Hm yes, you'll make a wonderful body some day" Both Dazai and Chuuya are on the other side of the planet and Fyodor basically teleported back to Japan and I can't stop thinking about how

Dazai told Fyodor that Atsushi was his most valuable/powerful pawn, didn't he? I think so and NOW FYODOR IS WITH HIM AND DAZAI ISN'T. MAN I'M KINDA SCARED. Fyodor and Dazai think very similarly which means that Fyodor might want to use Atsushi for something?? Dazai didn't explicitly say who his pawn was, but because of how similarly the two think, Fyodor probably guessed. Sigma and Atsushi have a few similarities (Two toned hair - Two toned eyes. White hair - White hair. Both where black and white primarily. Dazai even refers to Sigma as "The Atsushi type" C'MON!) and Fyodor was using Sigma... So how does our main character fit into his plan if at all?

I just- I can't- I have too many thoughts we'd be here for literal hours so I'm going to stop typing and sit in the corner for a while.

I don't know how to tag this, so whatever

In many movies it's said that Dracula's wife always reincarnates, so that was the inspiration for this (Fem!Kunikida looks like a Barbie, I love her)

Oops

It looked kinda cool without lineart

Mmm

Decay of angels sketch but something looked off about it so I never finished it

TW: minor depiction of blood and minor nudity

Text:

"Which kid is yours?"

"I haven't decided yet..."

this is how its looking so far i don't wanna ink it out & color it, what if i mess it up (ノへ￣、)

Anything even remotely father shaped in this series must die apparently.

Fyodor: Well since it’s just the four of us right now, why don’t you all be honest about how you feel about me.

Sigma: I hate you but I want to stay in my casino.

Bram: I hated you then and I hate you now.

Nikolai: I’m struggling between wanting to stab you or fuck you so I may do both.

Fyodor:

Fyodor: Sigma, how high up is that casino again?

Fyodor took the body of his crush!!

He thought "If I can't have him, I'll become him and end him"

Also wtf was that chapter, I can't process anything.

(Asagiri! If Bram Bram dies or smtg, I am going to kms)

WTF DID I JUST READ? WHAT WAS THAT!

Let me just organise my thoughts:

The old men Yaoi was expected but it still killed me

The last panel was so chilling and traumatic with Aya's cheerful words and Fukuzawa's expression 😭

Why wasn't Fukuzawa holding Fukuchi in his arms????

SIGMA IS ALIVVVEE

WHERE IS NIKOLAI? Did he go to bury Fyodor's hand or smtg?

FYODOR AND BRAM HAVE HISTORY

So that MF is immortal or really really old or smtg

There's NO way an immortal being like Fyodor dies by a helicopter falling on him!

Before dying (allegedly) Fyodor had mentioned "that man" as his rival before Dazai, could it be Bram? 🤔

Bram serving as usual 💅

Sigma looked like Sleeping Beauty (maybe you should have kissed the Princess instead of throwing him down 15 times Chuuya 🙄)

Fyodor has more Jesus allegories

Dazai wasn't in Fukuzawa's thoughts about the ADA..... maybe he is going to transfer to PM and the reason Chuuya was sent to rescue him was because they were going back to Mori together

NO AKUTAGAWA UPDATE (come on this was his birthday week 🥺)

CHUUYA LOST HIS VAMPIRE TEETH AHHH

WTF IS FYODOR? WTH IS GOING ON WITH HIM

I have so many more thoughts but mostly-----I really want to track down Asagiri to ask him wtf is going on here

I can't understand anything

I'll go and watch some yt shorts

This is all too much for my brain to process (I understand Sigma now)

Damn, Asagiri must really hate father figures

I don't think Akutagawa has lost his memories, neither do I think he's faking it, or doing it as a way to get Atsushi to react and get back on his feet.

In chapter 117, when Bram saves Aya from the airport wreckage, he says that he transferred his consciousness into Akutagawa's body when Fyodor's ability took over his own body, and that his ability would also die with him, his consciousness disappearing as a consequence. . The question is: we don't know what happens to a vampire who turns back into a human, nor whether all vampires were transformed back, or just Akutagawa, because Bram took his body. I don't believe that all vampires have become human, as Fyodor mentions that as long as he has Bram's body, the echoes of his ability would still exist, and he can still control everyone who has been turned into a vampire around the world, so it is likely that only Akutagawa was transformed into a human again (vampirism having disappeared along with Bram's consciousness), even if remnants of his transformation are still present in his body, like a vampire's durability. It is these vampiric remnants and characteristics that make me think that Akutagawa's sudden amnesia was caused by traces of Bram's soul/consciousness in his body.

When Bram dies, we see Akutagawa accepting his mission to protect Aya. Everything in the manga suggested that this was Akutagawa's own decision, and to a certain extent, it is, but it is quite likely that Bram's traits and characteristics remained in Akutagawa's body even after his death. This whole role of a "noble knight" was a striking characteristic of Bram, who always saw the current world as if it were still his time, and used terms from that same time to refer to everyone. Part of Bram's consciousness may have remained in Akutagawa's body along with the vampire characteristics, causing his consciousness to mix with Bram's consciousness, or be overwhelmed by it, which perhaps could have been the cause of his lack of consciousness, and memory. Something I found curious is that Akutagawa not only has protecting Aya (or the princess) as his mission, but also the commoners, something that was not included in Bram's order/request.

So where did the part about protecting the commoners come from? Is it something caused by Bram's influence? A part of Akutagawa's new (and probably temporary) knight persona? Or a wish of his own? His own desire to protect people?

Well, I don't know, but if that's the case, I can see a lot of ways this memory loss could really add something to Akutagawa's character arc. We know that he is someone who is truly true to his promises, and when Bram's consciousness and influence begin to dissipate from his mind, he will probably still remind that he promised to protect Aya, and will commit to fulfilling his promise. Being placed in the role of protecting someone, for Akutagawa, would be something really good, it would help him understand that he doesn't need to kill for his life to have meaning, that there is also value in protecting other people, that this is not necessarily linked to a failure (the last time he protected someone, they all got killed), and that there is something good about protecting and helping people. Finding a new reason to live would also help him get rid of the idea that the value of his life is linked to Dazai's approval of him. It's clear how he was using rashomon in a much more effective way in the last chapter compared to his other fights, so much that even Atsushi seems surprised. I believe this comes from the fact that Akutagawa learned (due to his life both on the slums and in the mafia) to use rashomon as a weapon, not as an extension of his own body, as a part of himself, in addition to that he does not need to use rashomon to fortify his body, which allows him to use rashomon more freely.

Other things that I think could have caused Akutagawa's amnesia are his transformation back into a human (dying, being turned into a vampire, and then back into a human again could definitely do some damage to anyone's brain), and Bram's promise to Aya to protect her, as we know that in Bsd promises can be kept even after someone has turned into a vampire (as we see with Akutagawa and his promise not to kill anyone). Bram's promise to Aya surpassed Dostoevsky's ability, causing Fyodor to create a great will to protect Aya, so it is not so impossible that it also surpassed Bram's death.

Портрет, що на стіні

Here's a theory, bram is only playing a prank on everyone bcs it's actually Aya's birthday!!! After he stabs fukuchi confetti will pop out and then fukuchi will stand, wiped clean from the blood on his clothes! And then suddenly they're all dressed up like Akutagawa from the 2hourslater scene! Except for atsushi bcs he's a very slow walker. Dazai and Chuuya will arrive on a pretty pink helicopter, throwing down gifts for Aya from everyone! And if you're wondering about the 2hourslater scene😂😂 well it's obvious!!! It was piñata fukuchi! No one else could destroy the piñata fukuchi and Aya became sad bcs she can't get her candy, so Atsushi and Akutagawa work together to break it! They will succeed and candy falls out of piñata fukuchi's stomach and they all live happily ever after! and sigma wakes up when Dazai and Chuuya are kissing. And then Fyodor looks down from heaven with Karma, they're looking at everyone and says "They are...the bungou stray dogs."

And then post sequence, Nikolai is seen sitting down near a grave that says "Dostoevsky" and then he does the thing that Grell from black Butler did and it turns out he was actually pregnant all along!
