Nightmares and cuddles

Self-Aware! Osamu Dazai x GN!Reader x Self-Aware! Oda Sakunosuke

Description: You had a nightmare. Thankfully, two of your new friends are here to help.

Set after BSD cast get into your world.

Cuddle Fluff. Hurt/comfort

Warning: Soft Yandere, if you squint. OOC. English is my second language.

You wake up in the middle of the night.

Your heart is pounding, your breath is heavy, and your hair is wet with sweat.

A nightmare.

You rarely have them. And, to tell the truth, the previous nightmares you had wasn't so vivid. Funny enough, you can't tell, what the nightmare was about. But you are sure, that it was awful.

Maybe, you had too many emotional turmoils for the last couple of days.

First, apparently, BSD characters from your BSD Mayoi game were self-aware. And were self-aware for a long time, (since you finished watching anime and start reading manga/light novels). Few days ago they finally managed to break free and got into your world.

Second, the BSD gang are totally adoring you. Now, you have a bunch of new friends. And, in some cases, new relatives (you are pretty sure, Hirotsu and Melville have adopted you as their new grandchild).

Third, Fitzgerald is planning to buy a new home for you, the one, that can contain all of you. You tried to protect, but Fitzgerald won't listen.

"You are Our Guiding Light, it's the least we can do for you. And don't worry about the money, I have it covered." Fitzgerald grinned and look at you with soft eyes.

Forth, characters have heard you talking about them. About been good people, about treasuring them. You remember tears in Kunikida's eyes, when he told you, how your words help him find his strength again. You remember Atsushi's warm hug, when he thanked you for been sympathetic. There were many thanks and tears when they arrived.

You sit up on your bed. You were still shaking. You felt thirsty and decide to go to the kitchen and have a glass of water.

And, of course, Oda Sakunosuke and Dazai Osamu were sitting in the kitchen, having a conversation with hushed voices. They were wearing casual clothes, not their iconic cannon attire.

Most part of the BSD gang, currently, were back in the app. Yes, they were going back and forth, but didn't stay here to sleep. Because there is no way so many people will fit in your apartment. But, Fukuchi insisted, that, at least two of the characters will stay there, with you.

"Because, Little Guiding Light, you need protection. This world is also dangerous. It doesn't matter, if there are no abilities" Fukuchi chuckled and gently pet your head.

Characters changed every night. At first, you were guarded by Atsushi and Akutagawa, then - by Teruko and Tachihara. Today, Dazai and Oda were your guards.

Oda noticed your presence and smile at you. His smile was apologetic.

"Hey, [Y/N], did we wake you up?"

You shake your head and yawn.

"No. I had a nightmare. I will drink some water and go back to sleep."

Oda and Dazai looked concerned. Dazai rushes to your side and carefully led you to the table. Dazai force you to sit down, while Oda takes a glass from the cupboard and fill it with water. Dazai put his hands on your shoulders. Oda came closer with full glass in his arms.

Dazai rubs your shoulders: "A nightmare? Are you alright? What was it about?"

You take the glass from Oda, smile at him gratefully, and take a sip. Then you answered.

"I am fine, maybe a little shaken up. I can't tell, what the nightmare was about. I am sure it was something nasty, but I can't recall any details."

Dazai hums. You continue drinking water. Both Oda and Dazai are silent. The silence was comfortable. You finish your glass of water and put it in the sink. Oda finally spoke:

"Are you sure, you are alright?"

You thought for a moment. Actually, no. You weren't. You sighed:

"No. I am afraid to fall asleep again. I don't want to have nightmares again."

Dazai instantly jump to your side and, after giving you a side hug, proclaims: "Then Odasaku and I will protect you in your sleep!"

You looked at Dazai, puzzled. Oda also doesn't seem to understand, what Dazai want to do. Dazai looked at you. His brown eyes were soft and shined with care and tenderness.

"[Y/N], do you want to cuddle with Oda and I tonight?"

You are sure, that, if Dazai didn't hold you in his arms, you would fall. You. Cuddling with Dazai Osamu and Oda Sakunosuke. BSD Fans would eat you and your hat for that chance. And here you are, Dazai himself offers you to be in a middle of cuddle sandwich. You quickly glanced at Oda. He doesn't seem to be bothered by that idea. After Oda noticed your glance, he chuckled: "I am fine with this. [Y/N], you decide."

...

You also are fine with this idea.

"I would like to cuddle with you two tonight"

Dazai's grin became bigger. He almost crushed you in his embrace. Dazai start leading you to your bed. Oda was following after you two.

When you get in your room, Dazai, after removing his shoes, lay down on the far end of your bed and, after turning in your direction, patted the mattress next to him.

"Come here, Guiding Light, you will be warm and cozy.

You were as red as a tomato. You slowly lay down on your bed. Dazai after noticing that you won't scoot closer to him, let out a quiet laugh and hug you himself.

You feel his chest makes contact with your back. Dazai snakes an arm around your midsection. He squeezes you tightly against him and snickers:

"Oda, your turn"

The sheets rumble over your and Dazai's bodies, and your mattress sags gently as Oda climbs aboard it and cover the three of you with a blanket.

Oda scoots closer to Dazai and you. Your head was laying on his chest, he shakes an arm around your shoulders. Dazai buried his face in the back of your neck. You feel Oda's breath on your hair.

"[Y/N], don't worry. Relax, everything is alright"

You lengthen your limbs fully and release tension. You feel warm. You feel safe.

Oda and Dazai cuddle you closer. Oda kissed you on the forehead and Dazai kissed you on the cheek. They said in unison.

"Goodnight, [Y/N]"

You blush and whisper: "Good night, guys"

Soon all of you fell asleep. There were no more nightmares that night.

Giving BSD boys a blowjob for the first time

ft. dazai, kunikida

warnings: blowjobs (surprise!) MDNI

a/n: kinda wrote these in mind thinking it was also giving them a handjob for the first time so I guess that's double the fun!

Dazai Osamu ♡

Your eyes looked up to find Dazai's face, searching for a sign of approval. In response, Dazai let out a validating, soft moan and closed his eyes as he nodded. "You're doing excellent, belladonna."

It wasn't unexpected. Dazai, sharp and observant as a hawk, had seen the way your eyes lingered over every small change in his facial expressions. While you were dating, both of you had agreed to take things slow. Even small milestones like holding hands was a huge thing for the man that was wrapped in bandages. The slow burn of deepening your relationship into each other's hearts until it left a permanent mark that even time couldn't erase, was wonderful.

But with time grows desire. Dazai teased you to the point of dilated pupils, hitching breaths, and a blush that cups your cheeks. Exactly like planned, the detective thought, smirking behind the mask of crafted innocence. Except, the plan had been for you to beg him to touch you; not that you would beg to make him feel good as your fingers pushed his hips onto the couch. Dazai is highly aware of his intelligence that makes him read people as if they are a children's book, but sometimes, he thinks he doesn't always grab your nature. The type of nature that has you on your knees in front of him, getting high off of his pleasure.

When you wanted to focus your attention back on the twitching cock in your hand, the sight of Dazai's fingers grabbed your attention. You knew Dazai better than any living soul. Although still a mystery novel that hides behind words of deceive and avoidance to keep parts of itself hidden until the time of reveal is there, this mystery novel was slowly showing you its pages that brought you closer to the truth.

One of the mysteries revealed was Dazai's massive self-control over his external reactions. Emotions were another vulnerable aspect of what it meant to be human, and Dazai hid them masterfully. A part of that was because it functioned as a tactic to reach his goals and stay in control, but a part of you wondered if it was because Dazai feared vulnerability more than a bullet. Emotional suffering is torture for the ones with a sensitive heart.

While Dazai's face was decorated in controlled bliss and his moans playing like a soft lullaby, the slender fingers around the sheets were clinging for dear life. You see... could you make another crack in that composed facade?

Your thumb starts drawing circles over Dazai's tip and with that, you witnessed the twitching of both his cock and fingers. A soft groan escaped Dazai's clenched jaw. "Ah, that's my belladonna. You're soo good to me, hm? Working hard for that reward." That controlled tone...

... It wasn't enough.

Dazai could tell something changed. Even though he had his eyes closed in concentration, clinging to the tiny bit of control he had, he noticed how your stroking became irregular. "What's filling your mind that isn't my- argh, shit." Dazai's eyes shot open as he bolted his hips deeper into your mouth, leaving you gagged for a good second.

That face of pure shock and arousal, the one you rarely got to see on your lover, revealed itself to you as you had taken Dazai's tip into your mouth. "Y/N, that's-"

Another lick and Dazai's original sentence was replaced by a moan, and the detective felt like all control slipped between his fingers when you placed your hands around the rest of his cock.

Dazai grabbed your hair, hissing you to go slower because oh God, he was about to cum faster than he ever did in his twenty-two years of living, and God knows he did not want this euphoria to end this soon. Oh, he really wasn't used to feeling this good-

"Belladonna, y/n, please-" Dazai didn't know what he was begging you for. For you to go slower? Faster? What it was, you hummed in approval. That little vibration was all it needed for Dazai to throw his head in his neck. His toes curled as high-pitched whines fell over lips that had become swollen in a miserable attempt to hide his moans.

When you looked up after swallowing, you were met with Dazai's bangs hanging over his eyes. "Osamu, are you okay?" Worried, you push the chocolate colored bangs aside and... oh.

He was so pretty with scarlet painted cheeks. Dazai couldn't even look you in the eyes, giving up after one second of eye-contact before shyly facing another side with his head. "That was... good. For a first attempt."

You chuckled as your hand caresses the cheek that faced your way and with a slightly hoarse voice you respond: "Good. I'll make you even feel better next time."

Dazai's hands twitch one last time before he closes his eyes and mentally picks up every string that he lost along the way. As the detective opens his eyes, you can see the control and seduction in those dark eyes that you love so much.

Dazai leans closer until you feel his breath on your ear. His lips tickle and a shiver runs down your spine as he whispers: "Someone has earned that reward, hasn't she? Let's see how long I can make you last."

Kunikida Doppo ♡

Rubies could not compete with the radiant red glow of Kunikida's face as he realized what you were about to do. The detective should have known you were up to something when he was preparing today's schedule and you had popped up behind him, placing your arms around his waist as you kissed his neck and whispered: "Keep a spot open at 8 PM, love."

Even when the blond had asked for details, your lips stayed sealed. The only hint Kunikida got out of you was "Dazai has made you work over-hours; I want to treat you."

Naively, innocently, Kunikida thought you might have a dinner or massage in mind. Not that he was wrong! It was just a... different type of massage. With your tender fingers wrapped around his cock, Kunikida clenched his jaw to not make a sound, but the moan slipped away as he sighed your name: "Y/n... I, we-"

"Does it feel good, Doppo?" You made sure to rub his tip with your thumb right then, making the detective's cock drop with pre-cum.

"It- yes... yes, it feels good."

Looking up blessed you with the sight of an orderly man turned into a mess under the tip of your fingers. A wave of arousal rushed through your body, seeing the man unravel in front of you. You figured he would be vocal, but oh-

Kunikida was sensitive. The smallest movement had him throwing his head back and trusting his hip as tiny moans calling your name filled the room. Not only were his cheeks the color of fire due to the heat of your touch, but the intimacy of it all left him flustered as well.

You felt a hand rest on your head, lightly gripping a bit of hair. "Y/n... we, you- I have to make you feel good, too."

Oh. "That has to wait."

"But- ah!" The hand around your hair tightened in response to your mouth taking his cock.

Kunikida's thoughts were twirled up in the storm that was you. Your name rolled off his tongue like worshipping prayers as you brought Heaven to earth for him.

The bliss of touching Heaven became too much, and with one closing word, Kunikida fell apart. He arched his back, forgetting to bite his lip to soften the groans that might slip through the walls where his colleagues live. His grip around you tightens, never wanting to let you go, never wanting to let this feeling go. But then Kunikida realizes he's still on earth and lessens his grip on the fear he's hurting you.

The detective looked into your eyes, but they were filled with lust directed at him and God, it felt so sinful that he had to deflect his gaze. Yet, you grabbed his chin and made your boyfriend face you.

"Do you feel better?"

Kunikida stammered, trying to get out a word. "Yes, that was," an embarrassed cough, "excellent." 

Your thumb caressed his lip. "Good."

And then, the world flipped around as Kunikida lay your back on the bed. "I have done a deep-dive research on how to please you when the time was there. Now, let me return the favor."

Episode 61 BSD spoilers ofc xoxo

I know a lot of people are upset at Fyodor's death this episode, but can we all just remember that this was probably one of the better options that could have happened of all the options?

I always knew that Fyodor would die - it was just a definite thing I had in my head. He couldn't stay alive like Fitzgerald, that's not the way his character is. He's too much of a danger to everyone else when he's alive. I thought this was a pretty great ending to his life, it's not perfect but it is? I don't know. Something about burning in the flames and succumbing to them in the vehicle you were supposed to escape in after being fooled by a cheap party trick.

For all the people saying "But Fyodor's the smartest character in BSD! How could he be fooled by Chuuya just pretending to be a vampire?"

May I remind you of the fact that Fukuchi fooled Ranpo? You know, the one who's known for never being wrong and solving things like this constantly? Because even when Mushitarou used his ability, the same ability that has hidden thousands and thousands of esteemed criminals with deplorable crimes to their name, and not one person has been able to find them, Ranpo was still able to solve it with only a few clues.

Yet due to his unwavering trust and faith in Fukuzawa, that led to him being completely oblivious to Fukuchi being Kamui. He didn't think that he'd need to look beneath the surface level, because Fukuzawa trusts him so much. He never thought that he'd need to look any further.

The same goes for Fyodor and Chuuya.

Fyodor isn't the smartest character in the series, nor is he meant to be! He's simply just one of the smartest. He can still be outwitted by the rest. Not everyone can win everything every single time. Eventually, no matter how good you are at chess, someone else will beat you.

Anyways lol.

We don't even know how Fyodor got Chuuya to Meursault, or how he had proof that he'd turned him into a vampire. Of course, it will all be revealed soon, but disregarding that for a second.

Chuuya has broken into Meursault after Fyodor tells him to, mowing down all the guards and killing them all and saving Fyodor's ass from getting shot or being thrown back into jail. It all adds up in Fyodor's head so far. Chuuya says nothing, only growls, hisses, and screams. Typical vampire. (Other than his weird yowl LMAOOO)

Nothing is fishy to Fyodor yet. Chuuya is helping him and doing as he says. Then, they both get almost drowned by Dazai. Again, this is all pointing to the fact that he is not on Dazai's side if Dazai is actively putting him in his plans to kill Fyodor too.

Fyodor assumes that their bond is shallow and fragile, easily breakable if he presses down hard enough and severs the knot, which is what hes trying to do. He teases Dazai because, in his head, it's a one-sided relationship in SKK.

Fyodor doesn't understand human emotions well. He sees people as pawns and is not afraid to use them to get what he wants. But he is different from Dazai in the way he thinks about them. He dislikes humans; he thinks they're sinful and boring and a waste of his time, whereas Dazai thinks humans are fascinating and complicated and wonderful. Fyodor does not see the appeal. Which is what separates him from Dazai. Fyodor uses the people around him until he has no use for them anymore, tossing them aside. He has no regard for their feelings, and anyone he associates with he automatically tries to see what he can get from them and what he can do with them. Dazai does not. Dazai uses people as a means to help the Agency, or to save someone else, or to get information on how to not let the fucking world end, and the character development is wild.

Dazai used to be much more like Fyodor than he is now. He was cold, ruthless, and heartless back then. Whilst Dazai still sees no point in living and wishes to die, and he sees no point in anything, he has still grown more compassionate and a lot more self-aware and he has become capable of more emotion and wanting to save people thanks to Oda. Yes, he still doesn't really care about much, but he genuinely does care about those closest to him and saving and protecting them.

That is why Fyodor couldn't understand - he didn't know just how much trust Soukoku had between each other. He underestimated the bond between them. How much they rely on each other, and always have, for seven years. He thought he had Chuuya under his thumb this entire time, but Chuuya had bested him and tricked him.

This also just goes to show Chuuya's intelligence that a lot of people seem to forget. This type of shit will come easy to Chuuya - he's a Mafia executive for a reason, God damn it. He can lie, he can manipulate, he can be sly and cunning and discreet and careful. He's not a fool, he knows how dire this situation is. And so of course he's going to put his all into a completely fool-proof performance. He literally fooled us, and we're the ones shouting at Dostoevsky for underestimating Soukoku's bond.

But see? This is precisely why this was a suitable "death" for him. (I'm only saying "death" in quotes because you never fucking know with this series.)

Burned in the flames of hellfire as he perishes with the thought that he was completely beaten.

I made a post a while ago about how Fyodor's downfall was going to be how he thought he was too untouchable, how everything is simply but a trial for him and how he is the messenger of God, forcing his will onto other people and just spreading what is God's plan to wipe the world of sinners. How cocky he gets in his own way about his intelligence. How he underestimates, undermines and belittles the people around him because he genuinely thinks that they're worth nothing more than a pebble on the ground to him. He has no empathy or compassion that we've seen so far. He tricked Sigma and stabbed him with absolutely no remorse despite them being in the DOA together. Nikolai was happy to see him out of prison, and he pretty much just blanked him and went straight to the topic at hand, despite apparently having all the time in the world to kill (not really he needed the antidote not to die tbf lol). His downfall was the very thing that sets him apart from the others and typically gives him the upper hand - lack of regret, compassion or empathy or remorse. He was prepared to (and did!) kill children. He lobotomized two people. He manipulates everyone.

I really don't think that Fyodor's story is over at all, but I do think he's actually dead. Maybe not though. As I said, you never fucking know with this series.

Anyways. My point in this post was the fact that whilst we're all upset about his death (well, not all?), it was suitable. You can't complain about BSD not having the balls to kill off any characters, and then when it does, complain that a character has died. Or that "Well, it should have been somebody in the Agency." And what logic would that bring to the table? What would an Agency member dying accomplish? Atsushi is the protagonist, so he's off the table. Things would be very fucked up if Yosano died because then none of them could survive the shit they get themselves into. We don't know enough of Kunikida's history for him to go, plus he's the next leader of the ADA, plus his story is not finished, plus it wouldn't give us anything but grief if he was to die. If Ranpo died, that would also be a big no no, because it would only possibly send Fukuzawa into some sort of corruption arc, and it would crumble the foundations of the Agency, considering he and Fukuzawa are the two founders and he was the first member, and the Agency was made for him. Kenji, I don't see any point in killing our guy off. Leave him alone <3 Kyouka, maybe. She seems, I guess, slightly reasonable. Give Atsushi something more to fight for. Give him reasons to go feral, give him something to be absolutely fucking distraught about. But after that... then what? What would her death bring but grievances to Atsushi? Tanizaki, also no point in killing him off. They'd lose a valuable ability that could get them out of so much shit, Asagiri wouldn't kill him off like that, especially when we hardly know anything about him.

And for people saying "Dazai should have died instead."

That would be really fucking unreasonable - we still have far too many unanswered questions and loose ends. Atsushi would lose his mentor and obviously not handle it well. What about Akutagawa? Kunikida? Chuuya?

Dazai is such an integral part of BSD and an integral part of Atsushi's life - my one hope whilst waiting for the newest episode was that Asagiri wouldn't kill Dazai because there was no logical reasoning behind it. Yes, it would cause some great angst, but if he died, it would have actually just been the turning point for this conflict to get worse. Fyodor would have escaped, and then what? The world would have been wiped, because I guarantee you even if that wasn't Fukuchi's plan, it sure as hell was Fyodor's and he gets what he wants. If Dazai had actually genuinely died, what happens to Chuuya who has to look at his partner's lifeless body in front of him and is like "I did that." If he was a vampire through this and came back when Aya pulled the sword out, imagine what the fuck would have happened when he saw what he'd done. We all remember him going absolutely fucking feral and off the rails in Beast, and he hadn't even killed him there. Chuuya comes to, looks at the gun in his hand, looks at the dead partner of 7 years in front of him bleeding out. My safest bet is that he'd use corruption. But, Dazai is dead. He can't nullify it. Fyodor is escaping on the helicopter. Sigma is still in that room unconscious. Nikolai is doing God knows what he can teleport and shit. Chuuya unleashes corruption, destroys himself and the building, and Fyodor is far away and so is Nikolai, and Sigma is caught in this wreck. That's three important characters all killed in one swoop, whilst the "bad guy" escapes and is free to enact his plan without them hindering it.

?!

I'd rather not see that ending of BSD I can't lie to you <3 (However, I do want an angsty SKK scene of Chuuya going batshit insane at realising what he's done whilst he's been controlled and used as a puppet which is fucking awful for him... maybe I would like to see a little snippet of what this world would be like. Anyways.)

Sorry this got SO off-topic.

MY POINT BEING FYODOR'S DEATH WAS ALWAYS GOING TO HAPPEN.

TL;DR: Fyodor's death was always going to happen. It was inevitable.

He's been likened to Jesus so much throughout this series. He's a messenger of God and God puts him through so much suffering, and so many trials, and he sees it all as a simple test that he'll be sure to overcome. He's so blinded by his faith and his Jesus Complex that he can't see where he goes wrong or where he has failed because he's so sure that he can win and doesn't understand human emotions and underestimates everyone around him therefore leading to his demise and being fooled by Soukoku, who he doesn't understand the bond between because he doesn't look beneath the surface of anything intwined with complex emotions.

An angsty outlook would be that Fyodor may be scared of emotions because he doesn't feel them, and therefore takes the approach of "what you don't know can hurt you" and he's afraid of what he doesn't know, much like Dazai. But hey that's just my brain wanting to be scratched and itched the right way and making all my favourite characters tragic.

ANYWAYS goddamn this was so long-winded to just say that.

I hope everyone has a lovely day/night <3

!!!! BSD5 EP10 SPOILERS !!!!

i take back all my ironypoisoned statements about bsd i loved that most recent episode a LOT a lot. its not like i disliked the current arc by any means, but it also reached a point in its absurdity where i stopped taking it too seriously - and MAN did this episode bring it back SO GOOD!!!

it did really well - between sigma and dazai being trapped in the flooded room, the sskk fight, the fyodor and sigma scenes, the bram and aya scenes - both with bringing all those subplots to very bleak devastating points, AND with something i have always always criticized about bsd: the violence here feels real, it has stakes - yes i expect a bsd-typical fakeout next episode after we saw dazai get (supposedly) shot to death, yes i know atsushi after being dismembered is probably gonna be fine, one way or another, cuzthats how this show rolls... BUT!!! BUT! let me bask in this until the next episode drops: the WEIGHT of it all!! how PAINFUL they made it!!!

bsd gives characters mortal injuries often, and doesnt really give them lasting impact. remember when atsushi lost his leg? kunikida lost his hands? or when dazai got shot in the eye in dark era? those bits essentially existed just for the striking imagery of violence - for the shot of dazai bleeding through his bandages, but he's still standing, pretty motionless, you know? and it's something you get used to with bsd, as much as i gripe about how the fights tend to not really have stakes...

...but this episode, though? i think going so long seeing these characters crumple and tear like paper and largely be fine, makes the absolute painful bleakness of this feel all the worse: dazai's crumpled on the floor from a broken leg, bleeding from the head, and he can't deliver many of his dazai-typical quips before he gets shot in the shoulder and just grabs it and screams. he doesn't get the satisfaction of being grabbed, or strangled, or whatever else by chuuya's hands, he doesn't even have the control of that: no, all he can do is just sit there while he's shot, over and over, and even when he's on a smarmy genre-savvy self-aware ramble, chuuya just stops him and shoots him in the head - and that's so fucking jarring and makes for INCREDIBLY striking imagery, i love it!!! for once, he's not safe! there's no plot armor! he's in so much pain and he is actively feeling it!!! AND THATS SO IMPORTANT TO HUMANIZING A CHARACTER LIKE DAZAI

AND THE SSKK FIGHT GOD DONT GET ME STARTED - the way atsushi's screams were voice acted, my god youd think they were actually tearing off yuto uemura's limbs in that recording studio. sweet jesus. you see people complain a lot about manga-aname adaptation changes but, as someone who hasnt read the manga, any cuts studio bones made were made up for by the absolutely brilliant audio - the music and voice acting - in every way, in this episode. the screams of pain. fyodor's gayass little stunt. so good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

also sigma was awesome. aya was awesome. bram was awesome. fyodor made me feel a type of way (HIS ACTING WAS SO GOOD. MY GOD!!! TAKING ADVANTAGE OF SIGMA'S NAIVETE LIKE THAT!!! SPEAKING TO THEM IN TROPES BECAUSE THEY'RE LITERALLY A BOOK CHARACTER AAAUHHHH). 10/10 we are so fucking back. I LOVE ANIME.

[just-a-dinosaur-i-guess]

fitzgerald bsd did not fistfight DIO jjba!

DIO is in fact part of shepherdstown, a college town full of reincarnations; his reincarnation is lorenzo padavona, the student council president.

as for the others!

following what was a long ride of a custody battle, elise was adopted by bruno jjba and the rest of neo passione (a stand user specific group currently set up in yokohama with the help of ango sakaguchi) and turned into a real girl via rohan jjba's ability, heaven's door! she was given the stand the offspring immediately after by a stand arrow

very funny to me this one got no votes i'm glad yall can see the vision.. akutagawa and aubrey met through chuuya running into her first, and they did not get along initally but more bonding later on and the sibling dynamic developed from that

the aforementioned shepherdstown!! explaining this one would be better as a post of its own tbh but basically the reincarnations, while not aware of their status as such, all have a drive to be better then who they were. the demons are harder to explain and also i can't fully explain them without spoiling things <3

ranpo can hear (and talk to) the narrators! him getting shot by a sniper was what kicked off the mvrp's version of season four. he's okay though. mostly

wanting to check out neo passione and see if they were suitable for protecting yokohama as well, mii-chan has been staying with them for a while. not knowing he already had a name, giorno called him urbano, basically meaning city cat (mild sidenote: neo passione's base is a renovated hotel, seeing as they have a lot of members.)

yeah this is a thing. LARPers to lovers slowburn is still ongoing. is it gay to throw a poisonous snake at who you think is satan and then have to drag him to the hospital, and then decide from there you have to be his caretaker to keep him from tempting people into sin so you start following him around and you have dumb little arguments on the regular

while the dynamic hasn't been touched in a while due to shit going down in yokohama and unn having her own issues going on, when they were trapped in a void in the prologue of the mvrp (basically a hollowed out space between worlds) they did get along well

SO! there is a coliseum in The Mall (a large multiversal hub), and that's where this fight took place. the dog in question is otis, a corgi who's part of the voidwatchers (a very old organization with a select few, small amount of members who have taken it upon themselves to keep an eye on the voids, along with other related duties), and not only that, but one of the most powerful ones. with powerful fighting prowess and the ability to not only open spatial rifts but also be just fine in space, otis is a menace to deal with if he ever wanders into the coliseum

ENIA!! ENIA is a infinitely sprawling supercomputer who used to rule a whole universe, but after being defeated by The Boss, it's begrudgingly started to be.. somewhat better. still murderous, still mean, but it is actually a good mom figure to isaac. it spoils him and has even coded a filter (isaac_filter) for itself so as to not swear around him

he saw chuuya chiding akutagawa during the beach episode and did mental gymnastics from there.

manifestation might've been the wrong word, my bad, but basically, ceres is the multiverse forming a self with which xe can converse to those who reside in it. ceres can look however xe wants, and xe.. thinks making xerself short is funny because many tend to assume such a being would be towering over others. i will make a post about ceres someday because xe is one of my favorite ocs hehe

and that's it!! ty for voting and reading my silly rambles, and go follow the other people in the mvrp! (@dellonthebell, @feralshadowdemon, and @mrfeeshboyo!)

i have a multiverse rp that's been going on for a while and i really like these kinds of polls! so.

no pressure, but i'd appreciate rbs, i wanna see what people think !

I love your bakery!reader x ranpo hcs that you did and I'm here bearing with another request!

I was watching extraordinary attorney woo and then there this one scene in EP 2 that I absolutely love and want to have a bsd rendition of

Basically the reader and the guys (Dazai and kunikida separately) have to go undercover in a hotel for an investigation. They decided to go as a couple who's going to get married since the hotel is known for it wedding services.

Reader tries out a wedding dress while he subtly collect info. Hcs for how they react to seeing their crush in a wedding dress 👀

a/n : hey, first of all thank you !! i'm glad you liked them <3 second, i just started watching this k-drama !! + at first… i didn’t read “hcs”, so there also scenarios about this :”) hope you don’t mind. by the way, in these one-shots + hcs the wedding outfit isn't described, so it can be interpreted as a suit/tuxedo, a bridal gown or another item of clothing, basically anything y'all feel more comfortable with !

“SOMEDAY, I’LL MARRY YOU”

[ masterlist ] [ reblogs are v v v appreciated !! ]

fluff, maybe a bit of angst in dazai’s but nothing too major ig, romantic relationship (not estabilished yet), osamu dazai, doppo kunikida (separately) x gn!reader (they/them prns used)

warning(s) : not proofread !

words count : 1451 words

plot : “how would kunikida and dazai react if they saw their crush wearing a wedding outfit?”

DOPPO KUNIKIDA :

[ ☆ ] absolutely lovestruck.

[ ☆ ] he’d try anything to seem impassible about the current situation, because he’s absolutely not affected in the slightest/sarc.

[ ☆ ] however, his reddened ears and neck say otherwise.

[ ☆ ] they’re stunning, they’re stunning, is all he can repeat to himself.

[ ☆ ] make a fool of him for his behaviour and he will bask in a state of self-pity.

[ ☆ ] he’ll write something in his notebook along the lines of “day x, my soul left my body because of my infatuation for [name]. how am i suppose to look at them again, after how i behaved?”

[ ☆ ] ‘dramatic’ or not, he’d need a few days to recover from this embarassing experience.

doppo was nearly always a diligent, reliable person anyone could count on, accomplishing his work with extreme earnestness and without causing much trouble as he acted composed and confident in his abilities; that, however, didn’t mean he wasn’t internally panicking, questioning himself which was the right way to go in order to respect his ideal and at the same time not to cause drastic effects on the outside world.

in fact, quite a few cases he had to fulfill had been indeed stressful: working at the agency wasn’t something easy nor peaceful.

nevertheless, this time kunikida felt a different kind of uneasiness making its way in his chest, a more bearable one which was however rendering him still nervous. the worst part was that he was absolutely aware of the reason behind this tormenting and exhausting emotion.

an all too familiar, and welcomed to his ears, voice snapped him back to reality: “doppo, we’ve arrived at the destination. could you pass me the documents contained in your briefcase regarding our miss- wedding, dear?”

he was well conscious that you said those words to not make the taxi driver suspicious, but his heart still skipped a beat or two.

“of course,” he answered, almost too quickly, and passed you the folder regarding the case, avoiding your gaze the best he could. he didn’t want you to notice the blush present on his cheeks.

doppo couldn’t accept the state he was in, the state you put him in. his focus should have been on the mission you two had to complete, on the obstacles both of you could have encountered that day, not on you nor on your fake-programmed wedding. yes, it was only a cover for the actual mission, but due to his true feelings he couldn’t help but feel a little worried at the thought of it. what would have you thought, if he let the words he couldn’t bear to think about slip from his mouth?

he sighed and some common sense seemed to take hold of him through his quiet breath.

work was still work no matter what he could have thought: it didn’t change his priority, that was the case. he had to simply do his job, like he always did.

after paying the taxi driver, you both got out of the vehicle and looked at the famous hotel in front of you, gently illuminated by the morning light: it gave the building an imposing aura, which suited the rumors about the hotel perfectly.

as you two walked through the entrance door and made sure to present yourselves with your false documents and identities, a staff member accompanied both of you to a comfortable room where someone — probably their manager — was waiting for you on a beige armchair.

the initial talk lasted some time, especially because of kunikida’s subtle questions, which were used to get more information about that enchanting yet bizarre place, and your attempts to seem his romantic partner.

now, you had to try a wedding outfit for the mission’s sake. doppo looked down at his wristwatch: fifteen more minutes and then you could have discussed peacefully about the case without prying eyes watching your every movement.

a sudden rastle made him raise his head and, when he saw your figure wrapped in the fabric of the wedding outfit, his heart started pumping faster.

describing you with the adjective “wonderful” would have been a terrible understatement.

“love, what do you think about—“ your words died in your throat at the sight of your work colleague being so mesmerized by your new look.

kunikida cleared his throat and compliment your outfit without showing his emotions through his voice, trying to seem perfectly fine. which he wasn’t, for the matter.

one day i’ll marry them, he thought with a self-assuredness he didn’t ever suppose to own.

OSAMU DAZAI :

[ ☆ ] he isn’t someone who expresses his genuine feelings often. in order to manage them, they have to be suppressed by him/neg.

[ ☆ ] but, sometimes he can be caught by surprise, without being able to disguise what’s on his mind.

[ ☆ ] so, looking at you with a wedding outfit on would cause him to… well, short out.

[ ☆ ] the glint in his eyes and the look of pure astonishment present on his charmed gaze would betray his false composure.

[ ☆ ] for one of the few times in his life, osamu would be at a loss for words.

closeness: a relationship stage where the two or more people involved began to grew closer to each other, a warm feeling of belonging which allowed human beings to trust other individuals. something that osamu had experienced in his past, something that now caused almost dread in his heart at the sole thought of it. it didn’t matter if it was of a platonic or romantic nature, the young man couldn’t seem to rest, not if it meant to think about his deepest wishes and fears.

as he looked at the documents on the table, dazai melancholically suspired.

if he didn’t have an infatuation on you, it would have been easier to play his role, to act indifferent and suppress his feelings, as he always did; however, in this case, he should have been sincere about his own emotions, a thing which he feared more than anything: something of such nature, as thoughts and feelings were, couldn’t be controlled. and, to not be in control meant to be vulnerable, with no protection. when moments like these came, where his mind was wandering too fast, the loss of control and certainty dazai made sure to have at any time started to become a terrible burden. he didn’t wish to be hurt again.

the fact that he — osamu dazai, a former member of the armed detective agency who possessed an incredible intellect and was always aware of his surroundings — didn’t notice your presence because of his thoughts about you was another thing that had to be added at the list of cons about his infatuation. though, the thing was that he was doing his best to disregard the pros.

“osamu, did you find anything about the case yet?”, your voice interrupted his internal ramblings, “a track or clues, perhaps? i talked with some staff members but their mouths seem sealed: i didn’t get anything out of our conversations, unfortunately”.

dazai couldn’t help but genuinely wonder about the carefulness present in your voice when you called him by his name: when did you start using it to refer to him? when did your relationship as colleagues take this turn? especially, why, deep in his heart, did he seem to appreciate it?

“hmm, not quite yet. i still need some time to gather other information,” he slowly spoke, still confused by his own mind.

a playful grin appeared on your lips. “it just so happens that we will soon have to try our wedding clothes on, and there we’ll have plenty of time to investigate. so, i suggest you get ready”.

both of you passed the way to the dress room cautiously discussing the mission and joking about your situation. when you arrived at your destination, osamu was the first who had to try his outfit: although he would have liked picking something to just annoy you, pretending to be back to himself, in the end dazai chose a classic wedding suit.

however, when it was your turn, he suddenly became nervous: he distracted himself trying to vaguely question some of the staff members. but, when you appeared in front of him with the wedding outfit on, he almost risked fainting.

they’re… wow. i’ll marry them, someday.

“uh, is the outfit that bad?” you pouted, confused, half reciting and half sincere.

osamu wasted no time to deny your question. “no no— my dearest, this outfit suits you very well. you’re… stunning, indeed”.

“oh, that look is full of love, [surname]. you can’t be mistaken, he’ll surely be a good husband”, a staff member said between compliments.

now was your turn to be too shocked to answer.

**Update: The works mentioned in this post have since been taken down. The “message” was removed by AO3 because it was a violation of their TOS and it seems the author chose to remove their “opinions” piece.**

Despite the ongoing world crisis, I hope everyone is doing great as the year comes to a close and prepping for a safe holiday season.

I don’t really post here a lot, but I just wanted to talk about a problem that exists in every fandom and has recently come up for me in the BSD fandom. This problem is typically referred to as: toxic behavior, however, I sort of hate that term because it’s an umbrella term that encapsulates a wide array of behaviors that is purposefully vague so as to imply everything can be toxic, which means the definition changes depending upon the person, and ends up getting thrown around to describe any behavior that a person dislikes. That said, most people can agree that the term ‘toxic behavior’ includes “shipper wars” and harassing people because of their “ship”.

Yesterday, a user on AO3 going by the penname E_C_arts posted a message titled “deer Soukoku fans” and giving it the not-innocuous summary “please we’re begging you, please stop”. Clicking through leads to a rather prime example of this particular flavor of toxic fandom behavior, guised as an attempt to defend those who were allegedly victims of this self-same behavior, also a lovely example of emotional manipulation.

Although what’s currently posted (and what I managed to screen shot below) may not seem terrible on first glance, if not a little cringey, and can be easy to agree with (don’t bully people that write for a ship you dislike), this was not their original message and has been edited since being posted and, and only after receiving the number of comments it did and which they’re now noting as “proving their point” – a point which they erased, thus manipulating perceptions. I wish I had gotten a screenshot of the original, but if you scroll through the comments, you can find some people that quoted it.

This person most definitely did open their “message” to Soukoku fans by literally telling them to “stop writing” for it. They claimed there was some unspecified AU (or maybe multiple unspecified AUs) that had been overwritten for, that it was overused, and not original. They went on to talk about how the abundance of soukoku content was turning off new fans to the series (don’t even know how that logics…) and bullying people from creating content for other ships, basing these irrational sentiments off some false claim that removing everything with the soukoku ship from the fandom would only leave behind a sad, inacccurate (and oddly specific) 305 posts.

Evidence of their now deleted perspective can be further seen in another post they made to AO3 a couple days before this ugly rant. Titled simply “My unpopular BSD opinions”, they didn’t manage to garner much attention and went mostly ignored because, well, it’s your opinions about the show and that’s whatever. Of course, when you click into it, the very first “opinion” shared, is that they hate Dazai x Chuuya. Okay, that’s an opinion everyone is entitled to, and that’s fine. You don’t like the popular ship, that’s…not exactly an unpopular opinion, there’s quite a number of people that don’t ship soukoku. No problem. Until, they go on to elaborate.

Despite the title of this piece being ‘their opinions’, they state as ‘fact’ that its confirmed that this is “not a thing”, so ‘please stop shipping them it doesn’t work, it’s way too overused for it to be “funny” anymore’ (I’m a little confused about this wording, because Shipping is Serious Business™, so…not sure there are too many soukoku shippers doing it because they think it’s hilarious or whatnot, in fact, most soukoku fics are tagged ‘angst’, which we all know, angst is very ‘haha, lol’…but whatevs). They then include the same sentiment they expanded on in their Dear John to soukoku fans and subsequently deleted: “Please stop, there are too many au’s with almost the exact same plot Chuuya and Dazai being together, its really difficult to find any non-Dazai x Chuuya au’s”.

On the surface, once again, there are some “truths” to this sentiment. DaiChuu is a popular ship and there is a disproportionate amount of soukoku ship fics on the fandom comparative to other ships (soukoku comes in at a whopping 10,000+ currently, with the next popular ship Aku/Atsushi sitting at a decidedly less 2500+). It’s really not that difficult to find non-DazaixChuuya fics, if you know how to use filters on AO3, but there are going to be less to read from when you filter it down, and depending on your ship, you may find yourself in a fic desert, and I can certainly understand why someone young and lacking in rational thought processes might want to blame the popular ship for this predicament.

The problem with this logic, and it permeates every fandom, not just BSD, is that the shippers sharing and loving their ship are not to blame for your lack of ship content. You just don’t have a popular ship. If all the people who love soukoku stopped creating content for it, as this person is ‘begging’ them to do, that’s not going to increase the amount of content for your ships, because the reason that content isn’t being created is because there aren’t enough shippers for it. So, the only way this person’s logic works, is if what this person is actually saying, isn’t that they want these people to stop creating content for the BSD fandom, they just want them to jump ship, stop creating content for soukoku and start creating content for their ships.

Any creator/fan is going to have a visceral reaction to that: who the fuck are you to tell me what to create? And for free, no less!

This moves us more towards a clearer definition of what is toxic fandom behavior. In short, its telling anyone how they should interact with or interpret their favorite content. I mean, even Word of God does not have this power. That’s because every single fan in a fandom is an individual human being. They are possessed of their own autonomy, and as a creator I know, that once you put something out into the world and give it over to others, you have little control over how people consume and feel about your work. You can tell them your intention, but that’s not going to sway them to interpret it that way, and that’s…just the way it works.

Now, the elephant in the room needs to be addressed. It’s easy for me to be ‘offended’ by this person’s post and not see their complaints because I am a soukoku fan. I’m also the target of this person’s rant, and one of those people this person is attempting to emotionally manipulate into writing for other ships in the fandom for which I have no preference. But I am capable of seeing the other side of this argument.

First, because I do have other fandoms in which I am part, and for which I have a rare-pair ship. For example, I am a Gundam Wing fan and a 2x5 (Duo/WuFei) shipper. I’ve posted two 2x5 fics on fanfiction.net. While 2x5 is not the rarest of rarepairs in the Gundam Wing fandom, it is significantly eclipsed (as are almost *all* ships in the fandom) by the 1x2 (Heero/Duo) ship. Do I hate 1x2 shippers for my lack of 2x5 content? No. I just appreciate what I’ve got all the more, and I’ll create content for it when I feel compelled, and I sure the fuck won’t implore 1x2 shippers to stop writing for their fave and write more for mine because I want more 2x5 – that’s sheer entitlement, right there, pure and simple. I also ship 3xD (Trowa/Dorothy) in Gundam Wing, which *is* the rarest of rarepairs – I think there’s only, like, two stories in existence that features this pair on the entirety of the internet. I’m also a RavenxMurphy (Murven) shipper in The 100 fandom and I do not hate Bellarke fans because…those people are scary and have canceled the show’s creator for not delivering on Bellarke, and in BSD, I ship Atsushi/Lucy (yes, I said it, they’re cute af and I hope Asagiri delivers on that ship). I also low-key ship Yosano/Ranpo (sorry, Ranpo/Poe shippers, I understand the appeal, I just think him and Yosano is sooo cute, please don’t kill me…), and I also ship Yosano with Kunikida – all of which are some of the rarest in the BSD fandom.

Second, because I have seen and called out shipping harassment in the BSD fandom, so I am well aware that this kind of thing exists – as it exists literally everywhere and in every flavor. Against soukoku shippers from antis and by soukoku shippers against shippers putting Dazai or Chuuya with any other characters and by soukoku shippers against other soukoku shippers that are, uh, “doing it wrong”. None of these is appropriate. You’re not fighting fire with fire if you’re an anti-attacking the popular ship, you’re just creating a bigger fire and burning the entire fandom down. You’re not defending your ship if you are a soukoku fan attacking non-soukoku fans, you’re just punching down by attacking a less popular ship. And top/bottom arguments aren’t just toxic, they’re also deeply entrenched in fetishization of same sex pairings through a forced heteronormative lens and is, kind of, sort of, actually homophobic in its basis (yes, I said it. It’s ignorant and homophobic and trying to argue with ‘personality/physical traits’ as evidence of who serves what position in the bedroom can be emotionally and mentally damaging to members of the LGBTQ community. Claiming that Chuuya should be bottom because he’s shorter/smaller, or that Dazai has ‘bottom energy’ because he’s more flamboyant and ‘feminine’ is straight up discrimination – a shorter guy can definitely be top, and a manly man can be bottom, it’s not a behavior based on perceived gendered traits, it is just a fucking preferred sexual position, and no, you are not ‘fixing it’ by purposely using positions for these characters that eschews the stereotypes either. Trying to justify positioning by personality/physical traits at all, in any way, shape, or form is just not okay – if it’s your preference, it’s your preference, no justification needed, just recognize that it is *your* preference and arguing what’s ‘right/wrong’ positioning is just plain wrong).

But this brings us to a different issue: bad actors and blaming a whole community for a ‘few rotten apples’. I could easily lump this one person in with everyone that does not ship soukoku and deem them all toxic, aggressive, entitled, bullies attempting to harass soukoku shippers off the platform. Or I could see them for what they are, individuals with individual motivations and drives and morals that also happen to share the same shipping preferences. Is it true to say that there are no soukoku fans that engage in the behaviors described by E_C_arts? No, there are definitely those that do, as there are antis that engage in that same behavior against soukoku fans. But this person also asserts that soukoku fans turning ‘every BSD post about soukoku’ is also a toxic behavior. To which I refer you back to one. This is how they engage with and interpret the work. Don’t yuck on someone else’s yum. People want to gush about how cute they thought soukoku were in an official art, or that they felt there was some hidden (or not so hidden) interaction between them that validates their ship, or their inspired to create soukoku content based on it, so what (for the record, it irks me too when people go ‘see it’s canon and Bones totally ships it’, because it’s unlikely, given BSDs genre, that any romantic relationship will be confirmed, soukoku notwithstanding). It is not, in fact, toxic to gush over it. Let them have their fun with it, let them enjoy their ship. Now, if you go and make a comment about liking the art for other reasons and they reply to you about “…but also soukoku”, then still, that’s not toxic, that’s just them enjoying the content the way that they enjoy it, so let them enjoy it, and you opened yourself to engagement without any qualifiers for the type of engagement you were soliciting, you can’t then backtrack and go ‘but I’m not a soukoku shipper, they should’ve been able to read my mind and known that, it’s totally toxic of them to share their personal reasons for loving the show in response to my sharing my love for the show’. But if you comment about another ship, and they reply to you “…ew, gross! It’s 100% soukoku” then yes, that’s toxic. A lot of people fail to make this distinction, that they are, maybe, merely being triggered and not actually harassed, by feeling like their ship isn’t being validated because they see another ship all over the place and everyone they engage with ships it.

It’s also toxic, to take an experience with one person and hold every soukoku shipper in existence responsible for that one person’s inappropriate behavior. The truth is, that bad actors amongst soukoku fans are not unique, not to the ship and not to the fandom and not even to fandom culture in general. Every group in existence everywhere has bad actors in it that, while the group disavows their behavior, they continue to be held accountable for those individuals and judged by them. For current events, look at how the BLM movement has been blamed for bad actors (many of whom were not actually BLM activists) that took advantage of the protests and started riots and chaos. A small percentage of people were involved in these behaviors, but the entire movement, despite speaking out against rioting, continues to take the blame for it. For me, that’s the root of toxicity. We need to start holding individuals accountable and stop blaming people who have no control over those individuals, because they share a few similar beliefs or interests. That’s throwing the baby out with the bathwater. But the shippers as a whole are not to blame for the actions of a few, and the reason that it feels that there are so many more soukoku fans that do this is because of volume, there are so many more soukoku fans. It’s basic math. If two percent of fans are these toxic kinds of shippers, then there’s going to be so many more of them in a larger population than a smaller one.

I try to call out toxic behavior, no matter if it’s my ship being lambasted or one of my fellow shippers doing the lambasting, whenever I see it, but the trouble is, I don’t typically go into fan content that isn’t for my ship and, thus, I don’t see it. The same goes for the vast majority of soukoku fans out there. We’re here for soukoku content, we’re seeking out soukoku content, and avoiding what isn’t soukoku content. But here is my offer to all of those who are outside of my ship. I like to argue. If someone is harassing you for having a non-soukoku ship, call me, let me know, I will argue with them for you. I will explain to them in no uncertain terms, and in many unpleasant ways, that they do not represent the soukoku shipping community and they are an embarrassment to us. Content for any and all ships is welcomed and encouraged within the fandom. Write, draw, contribute, be a part of the fandom and express yourself, please. If you are a soukoku shipper (or even if you’re not), and someone is harassing you about your top/bottom preference, call me, let me know, I will argue with them for you. I will explain to them why their justifications for which character should be top or bottom in a same sex pairing is grossly misrepresentative and exploitative of the LGBTQ community and rather disgusting. Do not assume that because we seem to remain silent on these types of harassment that it’s because we are in agreement with them, it is only because we haven’t seen them – why would we, we’re not going in those spaces that weren’t created for us. Ask the community for help, don’t attack the rest of us for the poor actions of a few that we were not even aware of. Let us help you in policing them, rather than assuming we don’t care. We are just too busy staying in our lanes, but if you need us, we are here. Majority of us want a clean, friendly, welcoming community for creators of all types as much as you do.

All of this aside, there are spaces and places for these debates and AO3 is not it. Posting this kind of message is actually a violation of AO3 TOS, constituting as harassment, which is defined on the AO3 TOS as “…any behavior that produces a generally hostile environment for its target…”( https://archiveofourown.org/tos#IV.G.). This general behavior also falls into the realm of another kind of toxic fandom behavior: hijacking a platform/tag for your own purposes that is a direct contradiction to its express usage (otherwise, known as trolling). AO3 is for posting fan-made content that contributes to a deeper understanding and expansion upon the original work. Using AO3 to attack people who are using AO3 for exactly what it is designed to be used for is an abuse of the platform. It’s not okay and invites similar content that will ultimately interfere with the original purpose of the platform. AO3 is for fan content, not for your own personal rants about other people in the community, please keep it that way

I do also want to note, that this person choosing to edit their post after receiving the justified ire from fans (notably soukoku and non-soukoku fans alike upset by the audacity of this person, who, as far as can be told, has never themselves contributed fanfiction to the community, to tell people what they can and cannot write) for their original comments, is a form of manipulative abuse called ‘gaslighting’. They are now claiming to be a victim that “never said to stop writing”, despite that having been the literal words they used in the opening of their original post. They are now pointing at these comments as “proof” of their point that soukoku fans are aggressive bullies that attack without cause when there was definitely cause from the original comments. This person clearly has bigger issues than just lacking shipper content for their personal preferences on the BSD fandom.

To all of those who are afraid to share content for your ship because you think you’ll be harassed, as evidenced by this person’s claims, that is simply not true. While there might be one or two people that say something, we all get them no matter if you have a popular ship or a rarepair ship, haters are gonna hate – I’ve gotten my share of hateful comments towards my ships too, but there are many more people that share your ship and are interested in your content, in fact, some of them are starved for it. While having a rarepair might mean you’ll garner less interactions with your content, you have a better opportunity to form a deeper bond with the people that do interact, and they may be more appreciative, because what you’re delivering to them is so much harder to come by. The existence of one ship does not affect your ship’s popularity, and if it simply went away, that doesn’t mean that your ship would receive more attention – in fact, it might mean the show itself would receive less attention.

Create and let others create and use platforms for their appropriate purposes, and most importantly, when it comes to addressing toxic behavior in a fandom, look to yourself first. Are you placing the blame where it belongs? Are you addressing the root cause of the problem or swinging blindly and attacking innocent bystanders in the process? Will what you say actually help the problem? Or will it contribute to the issue, and maybe even create an issue that didn’t exist before?

Real bruises and scratches, instead of makeup. Real tattoos.

It was only a matter of time, before they will go further.

__________

That TV Series supposed to be progressive. To show, how terrible schools can be. How terrible teachers can be. How terrible students can be.

And you were a mane star.

You had some similarities with the main caracter. Your families had a similar past, your older brother was a lazy man, who couldn't care less about anyone, besides himself, and you, while not as bad as the main, character, you could be a jerk sometimes.

Everything changed, when filming started.

Countless failed scenes. Days, spend in a studio.

Being chocked, shot, drugged...

And every day was ended in a cramped cabin of Restarter.

It could reverse your body injuries.

It could never reverse your mind.

___________

You hated everyone.

Your fellow actors, director, producer, operator, your mother, your brother, your father, fans of the series.

You hated, that you can't quit, that you were forced to go through borderline torture in studio, that you were forced to acts a sociopath before fans.

Because that's what people want to see. Because Restarter will undo the damage. Because you have no reason to complain, shut up, and bring your mother another paycheck...

You stopped care. If you had some sympathy in you, it was buried deep inside you by years of "industrial abuse".

You were forced to wear a mask. And, after all this year's, remains of it still clung to your face.

When you finally became eighteen, you took last paycheck, broke the contract and left the country.

__________

You avoid talking to people as much as you can.

You stopped watching anything, that have real-life actors. You stuck to animation and drawings.

The world was full of sick people. And you were the sickest among them.

__________

When BSD Cast appeared before you, you thought, that time, you get some strong painkillers. However, no hallucination can be warm and try to take away the bottle of pills from your hands.

Yosano can be surprisingly strong.

_________

Your head hurts. You just got a bunch of information dumped on you. You spoke up.

"You... You are mistaken... I am not a hero... I am not a good person... I... can't care about real people, including myself.... I... still care about you all.... But... I could stop..."

You looked up at them.

"You heard me ranting about my past, right? You knew what you will deal with... I can give you money, I still get royalties. But, please... Leave. Don't sink with me."

Everyone was quiet. Then Naomi spoke.

"Tea. You promised Kirako and I drink tea together. Are you... care about us enough to fulfill this one promise?"

You wanted to snarl at her, but get over it. You were hungry. You can keep yourself and have one tea party.

You slowly nodded and stand up.

"Fine. I will bring the cattle..."

You turn on your heels.

You made step forward kitchen.

Something sharp pricked your neck.

And world became black.

____________

🐾 And long month of treatment started. Yosano explained, that they can't just leave you in that state. They will cure you, made few visits to your “colleges”. And, after justice is served and you are healthy, they will leave.

🐾 For months, you were under constant watch. For months, you were getting news about your family, director, actors and everyone, who were involved, being exposed for various crimes.

Restarters were banned.

What you needed all this years ago finally happened.

And BSD Cast always were near.

Taking care of you, getting psychological help to you.

Trying to bring [Y/N], the real person back from the stink mess, called [Y/N], The Lead Actor, playing the role 24/7.

You finally felt emotions again.

_________

You opened your mouth, letting Naomi feed you another spoon of porridge. Yosano was checking the results of the blood test.

"Your test is showing better results, then the test from last week. It is good. Soon, you will be healthy."

You opened your mouth. Before Naomi could feed you again, you spoke.

"Just... Just leave me... Find a better person to stay with..."

Your voice was soft again. But, you knew, that you couldn't truly become how you were, before the filming.

Yosano raised an eyebrow.

"Do you really want it? Or did you change your mind?"

You didn't answer.

_______

It was over.

You got justice. Your health became better.

You were standing before BSD Cast, like a year and a half ago.

And you finally have an answer about the future.

Stay... Or leave....

You opened your mouth.

And tell them about your decision

_________

A/N: Reader's choice is up to you. Did they stay? Or did they leave?

[multi-wild-imagines]

Oooh I saw your appreciation post for Atsushi from BSD. Can I get one for Edogawa Ranpo?

This took a lot longer than it should’ve otherwise I hope it’s okay! (All quotes are taken from the printed English manga’s that I own).

This is also a lot longer than I intended for it to be so enjoy!

Picking up on thingsthat normal people wouldn’t catch to simply detecting a lie, there is no onebetter than Ranpo when it comes to deducing any situation. His only weakness isthat he doesn’t know how to use a train…

“Ha ha ha! You’ve certainly made yourselfuseful, Dazai… not quite up to my level yet though.” 

(Chapter 1: Looking theGift Tiger in the Mouth)

While he seems full of himself that’s far from the truth because well he’s right, he knows that he’s needed.

“The city police are aslacking as ever, I see… they would never catch a single criminal without mysupport. My Super Deduction skill is the best in this agency… no, the entire country!No wonder why they rely on me so much!” 

(Chapter 6: Murder on D Street)

“There’s no getting away now. You killed her early yesterday morning at the abandoned shipyard 140 meters upstream”

(Chapter 6: Murder on D Street)

He looks for the most logical course of action with mere clues that no trained eye can spot. He pays close attention to the words spoken.

“Remember what the guy said? he ‘shot the corpse twice more just to make it look like a mafia job’ you know? Any normal person who saw a body with three bullet wounds would assume they were fired all at once. Bang, bang, band, dead. He was aware that the victim died after the first shot, without an autopsy, the only way he’s know….” “is if he did it.” “Quite right.” “But he knew exactly when it took place, yes? ‘early yesterday morning’ he said.” “The body exhibited little decay. Thus, it couldn’t have been in the river for longer than a day.” Dazai explaining how Ranpo solved the case to Atsushi.

(Chapter 6: Murder on D Street)

But of course he has no special skill; Super Deduction is a sham, not to deceive other but himself…

“You see the truth is Ranpo-san is not a skill user. He’s an oddity amid all the skill users at the agency, a normal individual without any ability. I suppose he believes that he’s tapping into a kind of supernatural talent, but…” Dazai to Atsushi.

(Chapter 6: Murder on D Street)

Easily bored and always in search of a challenging case, sometimes he just lazes around complains a bit but cannot defy the directer.

Not really caring for Atsushi’s whereabouts he’s not up to the task of finding him.

“Ranpo. If you can bring the new boy back here safely -” “You’ll give me a bonus? I don’t meed it, rea -” “I’ll give you my praise.” Fukuzawa to Ranpo

(Chapter 10: Detective Boys)

“Well, if you insist, I guess I have to!”

(Chapter 10: Detective Boys)

To be praised by the director was more than enough to get him to care.

Must I point out how excited he was to treat Kyoka to treats… but makes her give it back to him…

~A bit of a skip now~

He likes to tease/taunt people in order to prove just how ‘easy’ it was to solve something. Like he’s not insulting at all just very harsh. He has no qualms about pointing out flaws or stupid things people have said even if it was a reasonable answer or explanation.

And of course over the course of Poe’s challenge he has to solve who killed the man who was right in front of him and so and so on.

And as soon as he’s been whipped away into the book his first concern is that his glasses are gone.

Those glasses are so important to him, it was allows his ‘skill’ to activate. He even goes as far to convince himself that the only reason it’s not working is because skills cannot be activated in that world.

“I don’t have my glasses. Those are specialglasses the president gave me. I need them to launch my skill. Plus,Yosano-San, you couldn’t use your healing skill on the victim as he lay dying.Skills don’t work at all in this world and that includes my Super Deduction!”Ranpo to Yosano

(Chapter 32: Poe and Ranpo)

“Have you noticed it a little yet? Your Deduction skills are –“ “No! It’s a special skill! That’s why I have no power in this world!” “Well, but…” “I got those glasses from the president! Are you saying he, of all people, lied to me!?” Yosano to Ranpo

(Chapter 32: Poe and Ranpo)

He truly believes that he’s special that the director helped reinforce his skills but just cannot bring himself to accept that he lied to help him.

It’s not until Yosano ‘dies’ that he seems to finally accept that he has no special ability as he proceeds to put on the glasses that she was wearing.

“Sorry… I messed it allup. I didn’t see the perp at all. Guess I finally met my match this time. Butthis’ll be easy for the world’s greatest master detective. I mean the ArmedDetective Agency was founded for the sole purpose of harnessing your talents,Ranpo-san… and inviting me into the agency is something I’m always thankfulfor…” Yosano to Ranpo

(Chapter 32: Poe and Ranpo)

The agency was founded just for him; to both reinforce his ability and to give him a home. He also invited Yosano, if it wasn’t for him she wouldn’t have found her way to the agency (possibly).

He praised Poe and encouraged him to keep up and make more cases for him to solve, whether or not he noticed it he made a new friend or at least acquaintance.

But of course even after all of this he still doesn’t want to embrace the truth mainly because it would look stupid.

“We’ll have to hold a celebration once we’re back.” “For what?” “For the day the master detective learned the truth. That’s no skill, Ranpo. You’ve gradually built up your observational and deductive -” “I’m a skill user, all right!?” “Huh? But you just explained your methodology to the last detail.” “I’m a skill user! I didn’t deduce anything! That was all by chance! I mean…” “You mean?” “It’d look so uncool if I was a regular guy now!” Yosano and Ranpo

(Chapter 32: Poe and Ranpo)

There’s a few more things you know such as him having a sweet tooth but that speaks for it’s self…

This took way too long and kinda got bad towards the end, well I think it did but I hope it’s okay so here you go!

~Noelle~

Questions for Sagau imposter x Bsd AU!

1.Are you going to release a prologue on how reader got in genshin impact and their journey?

2.Are you going to also release the before reader got in genshin impact, and met bsd characters?

3. What if fake creator finds out ABT the portal where they can go to the real world, will fake creator send someone in to report? If yes then who will fake creator send?

4. Are you taking requests rn?

5.Can I be Anon 🌙?

Reminder: Eat healthy foods, drink water occasionally, exercise daily, and rest daily. I hope your doing good.

-Anon 🌙

1.I will. I have almost finished prologue, one shot. It mostly focused on BSD Cast being worried about Reader's disappearance, but, the big chunk of is focused on telling about Reader's being chased around Teyvat. Without too many details, because, the one-shots will have flashbacks about Reader's 'interactions' with Genshin Impact characters.

For now, I have in mind next one-shots:

Self-Aware! Fyodor Dostoevsky x GN! Reader x Self-Aware! Dazai Osamu (Reader have some general memories about Teyvat, maybe, a scene with Neuvillette)

Self-Aware! Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald x GN! Reader (with memories about Ningguang and Pantalone)

Self-Aware! Saigiku Jounou x GN!Reader (either with Narukami Shrine, Watatsumi island or Mondstadt's cathedral)

Self-Aware! Ranpo Edogawa x GN! Reader (with memories about Tartaglia, but it can be changed)

I also have Self-Aware! Akutagawa Ryunosuke x GN! Reader with Diluc scene and a question about hilichurls protecting Reader.

2. Maybe, as a part of main AU, but, it will take time.

3. If Fake Creator Found about the portal, they will send people to investigate it. They will send Travelers. Maybe, if portal was discovered before BSD Cast start actively causing harm, Fake Creator might investigate it themselves.

4. You can send a request, but, it will be put on hold, until finish with requests from this list.

5. Yes, you can. Welcome, 🌙 Anon

I am doing good, thank you for your concern :)

[selfaware-bungou-stray-dogs]

I just had this thought, what if reader is from the time of when the real writers existed? Dazai would totally be jealous of his real self for being able to unalive lmao. And ranpo and his real self...

Yeah... It ofc wouldn't be possible since that means reader would have to be from the 60's? But I just had this sudden thought lol

Actually, I have an idea for that.

I kind off have a sub-au for Self-Aware BSD AU. "The Sandman" inspired AU.

Reader are Dream.

An eternal deity, Master of Dreams, Ruler of Nightmares, Patron of Artists, Architectures, Writers. The Muse.

They saw them all.

Visible for them and their families, Reader saw their lives and their deaths.

Reader's kingdom is accessible for both living and for deceased. So, BSD Characters up to some interesting encounters.

-Short idea time-

You and BSD Cast are having a tea party.

Y/N: Please, be careful while wishing for something in my kingdom. With powers of Dreams you can achieve many great things, but, at the same time, you can fall from grace by using it.

/Suddenly, everyone is hearing barking from the next room. You rolled your eyes./

Y/N: Not again...

/RL! Dazai Osamu stormed into the room and, somehow, jumped on your shoulders. A small pack of pugs is following him. RL! Nakahara Chuuya is glaring at Dazai from the next room./

Y/N: looking at RL!Chuuya, trying not to move so much, so RL! Dazai won't fall down. Chuuya, how many times did I tell you not to wish for dogs so you can scare away Osamu? with a wave of a hand make pugs disappear. RL! Chuuya still looked pleased, left without the world.

/You look up. RL! Dazai seems pretty content with staying up on your shoulders. He is looking at BSD Cast with slight curiosity. You continue talking to BSD Characters, not paying attention to their shocked gazes./

Y/N: Where were I.... Right, dream powers...

/BSD Dazai raise his hand/

BSD! Dazai: [Y/N], is that..?

[Y/N]: nod Mhm. Our Dazai Osamu. The one, who succeed. slightly clap RL! Dazai on the ankle At least say 'Hello', if you are planning to stay on my shoulders.

/RL! Dazai takes another look at BSD! Gang. Pinches your ear./

RL! Dazai: Dream, why is a redhead in a hat makes me feel so angry?

[Y/N]: sighs Because I overdid it, when Kafka and Harukawa asked for more stories about writers.

/BSD! Dazai is speechless. On one hand, he felt jealous for looking at hos namesake, who succeeded. On the other hand, it was so weird, looking at your double? Prototype?/

/You looked up at RL/Dazai/

[Y/N]: I will tell everyone what is happening later.

/RL! Dazai hopped down on the floor./

RL! Dazai: Waiting for it. Well, see you around. /ready to leave, when he remembered something/ By the way, two lovebirds were looking for you. Want to have a shooting competition and asked you to be the judge.

/You hide your face in both hands./

[Y/N]: If you are talking about Verlaine and Rimbaud, remind them, that they still not allowed to touch any sort of weapon. cover both of your wrists under your shirt¹ If you are talking about Ranpo and Iwata, then I will free in a few hours.

/RL! Dazai nods and, after saying goodbye to BSD Cast, leave. The room is silent./

BSD! Ranpo: barely a whisper I have so many questions... And I am so afraid to ask...

/You smile/

[Y/N]: Don't think about it too much. You will get used to it.

/RL! Oda Sakunosuke barge into the room./

RL! Oda: [Y/N]! Goncharov and Turgenev got drunk and start arguing about plagiarism!²

/You stand up and hurry after the Oda/

[Y/N]: Stay here! I will be back in a few minutes.

/BSD Gang looked at each other. They have a feeling, that their lives will be interesting/

______

¹Real life Verlaine shot Rimbaud in the wrist once. Apparently, Dream also was shot by him.

² Real life Turgenev and Goncharov had a huge argument, that ended in court. Goncharov thought, that Turgenev stole the plot of "The Precipice" for his novel "Home of the Gentry". Goncharov shared his ideas about "The Precipice" with Turgenev, so he had the reason to think about it. Judge make Turgenev took too similar plot points from the book.

[selfaware-bungou-stray-dogs]

Will it be okay, if

If I post few one-shots with Self-Aware BSD Cast with my OC's? Or, will you be interested in some fics with OCs?

It won't be an x Reader, just a character study with Platonic! Fyodor and Dazai interacting with me OCs.

I just have few ideas (Most recent one - Fyodor's meeting with Bertha's parents)

I don't think, that there will be a lot of them, so I don't think, I would need a new blog, but, in case I get carried away, I might create one.

Of course, I will put an OC tag, so, in case you don't like OC fiction, you could ignore that posts.

I understand, that it might look like I am mumbling or getting nervous over nothing, but, I have never (besides the original OCs post and notes) shared my OCs before, so, I am worried.

[selfaware-bungou-stray-dogs]

Finished draft for the next request, but, I still in the mood to write another one shot.

Have some ideas.

What should I write?

_________

We will keep you safe

Self-Aware! BSD Characters x GN! Reader

Unsuccessful stalker

For Halloween month.

Loosely based on "The Closing Shift" game by Chilla's art

Semi-Sequel to Sick Day

Description: There is a tradition in Reader University. For eight days they will hold a Charity Fair. Many people from different cites will visit the Fair. Reader's job during the Charity Fair is working in a café.

Charity Fair supposed to be a happy event. But not for you.

Because, you are sure, that you have a stalker. Every year during Charity Fair, you feel like you are being watched. Moreover, last year, someone try to break into your apartment.

What's making it worse, it's the fact, that no one believes you. Until this year. Because BSD Cast believe you. And they will protect you.

Thankfully for you, and unfortunately for the stalker, this year, you will have a whole gang of protectors.

Midnight snack

Self-Aware! Decay of Angels x GN! Reader

Prequel to Shopping trip.

Description: First week in a new house. First month living with BSD Cast. You still try to get used to it. Tonight some thoughts don't let you sleep. Well, maybe a little snack will make you feel better.

[selfaware-bungou-stray-dogs]

Self-Aware! Fukuzawa's entry is in progress right now, but I am in the mood of writing another one shot. So, what should I write first?

Shopping trip (What's a cosplay?)

Self-aware! Nikolai Gogol x GN! Reader x Self-Aware! Doppo Kunikida

Fluff (for the most part). Everyone thinks that Gogol is a cosplayer. He is ready to throw hands. But he is holding for your sake. People can't mind their own business, they have to discuss, how terrible anime fans are. Karen. Kunikida, as a former teacher, has something to say about looking after the kids.

Prequel to "Surprise". About Gogol's first trip to the mall, annoying BSD fans, jerks and Karens. About overprotective Doppo.

Or

Tea, Sweets and Talks (And unexpected babysitting)

Self-Aware! Ryuunosuke Akutagawa x GN! Reader x Self-Aware! Akutagawa Gin

Fluff. Akutagawa siblings and you are discussing many things, starting from favorite snacks, finishing with movies from your world. Nice old neighbor. Cute kid.

You think that Gin and Ryunosuke deserve some time to rest. Besides, you want to spend more time with them. You buy some good tea and snacks, so you three can have a little tea party.

Everything went fine, but, suddenly, your neighbor asked you to look after her grandson for two hours. So Akutagawa siblings, and you are stuck as babysitters for a cute kid.
