Someone please help me find this fic

I read a Bungo Stray Dogs SKK fic a while back on ao3 and I can't for the life of me find it anywhere. I don't remember the title or the author, just various plot points and details:

It was a multi-chapter soukoku fic with mafioso Chuuya (I can't remember if he was the boss or just a mafioso but he was involved nonetheless) and 'civilian' Dazai (i think he was a college student?). Dazai shows up in Chuuya's office one day and the story starts there.

Oda shows up at some point as a bodyguard for Dazai I think and then later (spoiler for the fic ig) it turns out Dazai initially intended to kill(? or use i cant remember) Chuuya as he had previously been involved in the mafia but left for whatever reason.

conflict happens, angst, and then Chuuya needed to send Dazai away to keep him safe when a conflict was about to happen. He had to sedate him I think and Dazai was not happy about that. Dazai gets sent to the countryside along with Oda, Akutagawa, and Atsushi to wait it out and I think they agreed to stay in contact through radio but that never happened bc someone sabotaged the radios. During that time Dazai wrote letters to Chuuya and was a bit bitchy towards SSKK because he was jealous and missed Chuuya or something.

they come back, Dazai's still upset, and Chuuya got a character design update (i think he had an eyepatch? i just know he got new scars and such)

the rest is a blur, but I am 90% sure the fic was completed so yeah...

there might have been smut? not entirely sure but that wouldn't've been out of place. 50-50 chance there was/wasn't

I swear to god i am not hallucinating, my dumbass just forgot to bookmark it and now I can't find it anywhere. If someone could help me find it that would be incredible...

Okay okay, look I know we have already established that almost all Taylor Swift songs fit Cherik PERFECTLY but... I have heard no one talk about how ABSOLUTELY PERFECT the underrated banger 'renegade' fits them. NOW HEAR ME OUT

You fire off missiles 'cause you hate yourself

But do you know

You're demolishing me?

And then you squeeze my hand as I'm about to leave

Are you really gonna talk about timing in times like these?

Let all your damage damage me?

And carry you bagage up my street?

Make me your future history?

It's time, you've come a long way

Open the blinds, let me see your face

You wouldn't be the first renegade to need somebody

Is it insensitive for me to say "Get your shit together"

So I can love you

Is it really your anxiety that stops you from giving me everything?

Or do you just not want to?

SEEE????? It's basically Charles' thoughts!!??

In the far future, F1 cars may be built around miniature blackholes. After active suspension and active aero, we could have cars with active gravity technology, as in the car's gravitational field actuated according to driver inputs. This way, the cars would be much less reliant on aerodynamics without losing any of the cornering performance they are known for.

By harnessing the heat given off by the miniature blackhole(s) through Hawking radiation with an MGU-H esque device, the need for a conventional combustion engine could potentially be removed, therefore providing a way of making the cars lighter, smaller and much more efficient. In a pure blackhole powered powertrain, it could be used to charge batteries by simply existing, thus the use of electric motors would not be hampered by the battery's energy density and travel range would not be an issue either as long as the blackhole is fed, for which purpose even the gases present in the atmosphere could suffice. If mated to a combustion engine however, it could be used to create a hybrid powertrain of sorts, with the blackhole acting as a generator for the batteries and the combustion engine's exhaust gases used to feed the blackhole, creating a 100% emmission free hybrid powertrain. In lieu of aerodynamics, downforce would be generated through altering the amount of gravity acting on the car, therefore changing the weight of the car, providing a dynamic range of possible downforce settings to be utilized in a wide variety of scenarios. In order to keep the drivers and other personell safe, minimum and maximum G-forces would have to be set by the FIA. One downside is that the blackhole would cease to exist should it not be fed an appropriate amount of mass often enough, so as for the car to be able to limp back into the pits in a safe manner, a minimal amount of rudimentary aerodynamics and a level of emergency battery charge percentage would have to be stipulated by the FIA. Another downside could be the interaction between the gravitational fields of two or more cars, as they could affect each other's levels of downforce in unexpected ways. Temporal implications would have to be considered as well, as timing and broadcasting systems may not be prepared for the altered space-time conditions.

I HAVE AN IDEA

OK SO.... SIBLING RELATIONSHIP RADIOBELLE! EH? HEAR ME OUT OKA- *gets pushed off stage*

I'm sorry I threatened you with violence do you still wanna fuck me

Ask me for a Huskerdust screenshot and I'll have it. I LITERALLY HAVE EVERY SINGLE MOMENT OF HUSKERDUST IN A FOLDER, SO HOW COULD I MISS THIS ONE

THEY'RE HOLDING HANDS EVERYONE I SWEAR I'M NOT DELUSIONAL IT'S NOT THE HAND POSITION!!!! THERE'S NO NEED FOR ANGEL TO PUT HIS HAND ON TOP OF HUSK'S, THEY'RE DEFINITELY HOLDING HANDS IT'S THE ONLY EXPLAINABLE SOLUTION

The fbi agent listening to me singing Hamilton songs (very badly might I add) at the top of my lungs at 8am while dancing, if you can even call it that, in my kitchen must be very confused.

Would y'all care if i said i think my pig is whistling and i'm going fox-devil's wild? Like i don't have all the mugs in my cabinet anymore?

ASPHODEL | Chapters 1-9 Updates

I'm just speaking into the void here, so don't mind me..

..but I dropped this big update on "Asphodel," and it might mess with readers, so I'm prefacing it here as an FYI and linking it in the author notes on the chapters affected.

When I started writing it, it was meant as a one-shot, and it turned into this beast of a fic, but the first few chapters needed some refinement.

For example, I split the very opening scene up into the first 3 chapters, because initially, I worried about the chapter word count being too long; but as a result, the transition from chapter to chapter just kinda felt.. weird. Especially since some of my later chapters are fucking massive and make my early concerns seem incredibly laughable now.

But also, the more I got writing the fic, the more I thought, I really wish I had started this from the first moment we meet Satine in "The Clone Wars," with the "The Mandalore Plot" episode. I felt like I missed an opportunity to explore some of their dynamic before the fic opens following the events of the "Voyage of Temptation" drama.

So, I made adjustments to Ao3 as of Friday night, 2/2/24, and the first 9 chapters have been tweaked.

Initially, they looked like:

Confrontation

Olive Branches

The Attachment

Dream

Heavy Swords

We're friends, are we not?

Associates

Corellian Whiskey

Loneliness

And with the new updates, they now look like this:

Concordia (*new content)

Deception and the Darksaber (*new content)

Nightfall on Sundari (*new content)

The Coronet (*new content)

Confrontation (*existing content; edited from "Confrontation," "Olive Branches," and "The Attachment" to be more cohesive)

The Attachment (*existing content; edited from "Olive Branches," "The Attachment," and "Dream" to be more cohesive)

Heavy Swords (*existing content)

We're friends, are we not? (*existing content; combined "We're friends, are we not?" and "Associates")

Corellian Whiskey and Loneliness (*existing content; those 2 chapters combined)

I know this is going to seem super dumb to some people, but since I write it for me, I gotta edit it for me, too.

I did not gut any of the existing content, but I did make some edits that are more consistent with the characters as I'm writing them. A few small dialogue changes, the removal of a dream scene (I don't know where I was going with that to begin with, apologies, it was just fun to write), and a few other lines I might have changed because they gave me massive cringe all these months later.

But it's up and I hope I don't throw off new readers too much.

If anyone has any questions, critiques, complaints, please don't hesitate to reach out! :)

Is there such a thing as "too much Star Trek?"

I'm listening to a podcast, minding my own business at home, when I hear a boatswain's pipe. And I start looking around for any Starfleet officers that may have snuck in for some important mission.

And I start thinking to myself: am I watching too much Star Trek?

I'm in the seventh and final season of Voyager, with plans on which shows to continue and start. I practically need a kanban board to keep track of it all, because my ADHD demands the novelty and insanity that is Star Trek lately.

But I don't THINK it's too much. I'm pretty sure a roommate of mine was whistling some sort of pop tune and I heard a tiny bit of it over my noise-cancelling headphones.

No, certainly I'm not watching too much... Right?

I'm trying to study but all I can think about is this song used for an animatic with Valentino in Daria Cohen's style and this idea will singlehandedly make me start animating again
