#and goddamn if it don't fuck me up every time

[xsommeee]

Dazai's room is an exact replica of what Mori had in his. Nothing touched everso slightly, he rarely sleeps at night, sits glued to a chair in the corner and states in the dark. Talking to himself at various moments, arguing passionately against tall red drapes. In a Victorian era styled rooms with bedded pillars and purple soft carpet floors. Multiple grim artworks hung on the walls with heavy embellished frames.

If you asked Dazai what the model number written under the gun of a goon who walked past him this morning, he'd tell you with absolute certainty. However he had no idea about the bedding in his room, or the couch, he didn't even know the curtains were red. He simply never looked at them, he only saw the high void like ceiling.

“Comment était votre petit voyage?” Dazai remarked without moving. The room was completely silent before this, a normal person will say there wasn't a person there either.

“Il n’y a jamais de voyage.”

“Then where were you this whole week? Trying on better dog collars?” Dazai says glaring at the other. There was light illuminating a scowling slime face.

Chuuya Nakahara was missing from the Port Mafia quarters, the second in command had performed none of his duties for over two weeks “I need to talk to you, with sincerity” Chuuya breathes in “You- you delivered a box filled with over 200 hearts to the place I was in today.” Chuuya crosses his arms, visibly uncomfortable.

“Two hundred and thirty three for the fourteenth day of you not coming back. The Fibonacci sequence you know, I recognise your love for math and physics.” A horrific grin plastered on Dazai. Chuuya opens his mouth but falls short of words only to get interrupted.

“You wanted to avoid this outcome? I had warned you, Chuuya. You could have filed a leave application instead of disappearing, why didn't you? Did you really think I was bluffing?” “Bastard!” Chuuya grits, “you knew where I was!”

“Yes, and that doesn't excuse your absence.” Dark eyes cut into crystal blue ones. There's a surge of pain in the latter.

“Dazai,” Chuuya walks towards him half bowed with a desperation and uncomeliness he'd never felt. Wildly gesticulating every word and eyes blown wide. He screams, abuses and cries all through the same words and speaks without breathing. “I’ve had nothing, nothing to do for more than six months. I know batshit about whatever you're doing, hell that white hair kid who's been here two days knows more than I. A shitty goon with no use but to die first is more useful than me. Hell Dazai I’d fucking go out there not use my powers and fight like that recruit. But all, all that I do is come to this goddamn building and sit in an office she used to sit in. Watching people I used to know and respect deride me. Spit on me for the traitor I am! You wanted revenge over me not supporting your accession.”

Chuuya fists Dazai’s shirts shaking him with his own trembling body, “You’ve had it. I don't think you could have more. I'd say whatever you want, do whatever you say. Just- just let me peace, some peace. Stop torturing me like this. Like you’re unaware, behaving like this is alright, I’m tired. I’m sick. I’m already crazy! There's nothing left, nothing, nothing, nothing!”

Dazai had gotten up during this tirade, holding the hand fisted in his shirt, rubbing Chuuya's back soothingly with the other. By the end of it a heavy silence ensued. Dazai stared at his eyes brimming with unshed tears.

He started speaking calmly as if Chuuya was upset after seeing a rat get run over by a car. “Shh, don't be like this. Walls have ears, if someone heard chibi right now, you want something to do that's all? If that's it, I want you as my bodyguard. I had proposed it multiple times. You don't need to go anywhere, not the office or meetings, just stay.”

“Stay with you?” Chuuya murmurs under his breath. Dazai moves in closer, pushing Chuuya into his chest, trapping him with his arms. A dark room with two figures towered inward, they're two worlds colliding, obliterating each other.

From an outsider's perspective the Port Mafia's boss and his second in command are such dynamically different people. A different species altogether Osamu Dazai with his cold antipathic gaze, he can scare people with his mere presence in a room silent, still and unfeeling. There is anger in him too, unlike what appearance states, but it is reasonable and calculated, a white freezing fire. Chuuya Nakahara on the other hand is scalding hot, even to Dazai, burning himself from within like an amber ignited orange and red. He is simplehearted and straightforward to most, nevertheless complexities lay buried deep within him, in their presence he begins to think of everything as an act, a heinous disgusting lie. Dazai pokes that part of him, a place where they align the most perfectly in his eyes.

Dazai smashes his lips over Chuuya's, holding his nape in his hand to bend him up. The energy that possesses him while doing this however leaves him instantly, he backs just a little but their lips still touch, feeling each other's breaths fan over.

A few tense moments pass like that. Dazai stirs first, he knows the reason why Chuuya wants to leave. He moves backwards with such slowness as if moving away is excruciatingly painful. Chuuya doesn't let him move too much though, kissing Dazai full and tender, breaking it at times to look into his dilated eyes as if to read some unknown secret. Dazai holds him tighter than a drowning man stuck in a storm with only a log to float.

Read the rest here? Idk I really like this fic, like really I hope people read it, I'd write like one chapter more :

Palestinians were *actually* telling people to boycott the vote. Wrong again. Please for the love of god, read a history book, explore outside of electoral politics, stop blaming those with principles for what is the sole fault of fascists, grow tf up

There's no such thing as "boycotting a vote" you stupid Goddamned fucking IDIOT.

You're not even worth replying to but you know what?

You don't vote? All you're saying is you're a waste of time to spend outreach resources on.

Congratulations.

Now the guy who wants Israel to "finish the job" will be in power. Trump who criticizes Biden for holding back. He wants Gaza to be real estate for everyone else. He's racist, Islamophobic, and war hungry against Palestinians and everyone living within within the US who disagrees with him and who comes from any sort of minority and everyone KNOWS ALL OF THIS because he held fucking neonazi rallies and said all of it out loud himself.

Harris would have been better in every way for everyone on the fucking planet and wanted a two state solution/ceasefire.

I referenced a last minute endorsement she did receive from Muslim and Arab American leaders as well as posts I had seen around but didn't save where people were saying to vote for Harris in between, idk, fighting for their lives.

Ukraine is Also in danger and people in Eastern Europe are scared about Trump too.

I will not be discussing this anymore/I'll be deleting any asks or stupid ass replies to anything I post but let me make it clear. If you fell for the psyops and "boycotted" your vote:

You don't care about Palestinians.

You don't care about Ukrainians.

You don't care about women.

You don't care about climate change or anyone in the US/places the US exports food to having clean water/safe to eat food.

You don't care about queer people.

You don't care about any indigenous, black, brown, or Asian people within the US.

You don't care about gun control.

You don't care about the horrific impact this will have on the global South.

You don't care about freedom of the internet.

You don't care about homeless people.

Y'all hate women of color so much it's unreal.

You don't care about anyone but your fucking self and the delusion you have that you're somehow virtuous by not voting when all you are is blindly showing your own ass as being uninformed and flaunting it as good while y'all let this shit happen. Fuck off.

okay so I haven't generated any more AI songs since I said I wouldn't, but I never did post some of the other ones I'd already made and this one is actually one of my favorites 'cause imo it just nailed the wistfulness and anxiety and EMOSHUN (it's about the Yearning 😭), so... here it is.

inspired by how many times Face and Murdock have probably shared a room during jobs and been left to face their Feelings in the middle of the night. it's supposed to be from Face's POV (ft. ye olde internalized homophobia, my beloved) but depending on how you headcanon Murdock's own struggle with his Feelings ig it could go either way, maybe they're even both thinkin' the same thoughts while sleeping right across from each other and not talking about it 'cause they're scaredybabies)

lyrics under the cut (partially generated, partially written by me... honestly I forget which parts were purely AI-generated lol but I know for sure that I wrote both of the bridges and the choruses/outro, and definitely tweaked some of the verses)

[Verse 1] Sharing a motel tonight Turn my back to you in spite Fear creeps in with twilight's cue I'm afraid to love you [Verse 2] Secret that would shake your core Hold my heart behind a door Shame so deep I can't break through I'm afraid to love you [Chorus] I already do I already do I'm sorry it's true But I already do Love you [Verse 3] Silent tears in morning light Dreams that fade at dawn's first sight Hope is here but out of view I'm afraid to love you [Verse 4] Every word I dare not say Keeping my true heart at bay I'd propose a rendezvous But I'm afraid to love you [Chorus] I already do I already do Fear keeps me from you But I already do Love you [Bridge 1] Playing it straight is a losing game When you've got a heart that can't be tamed And I know it's wrong, but what can I say?* After all these years the feeling won't go away [Chorus] I already do I already do I'm sorry it's true But I already do [Bridge 2] (Just say you'll stay) If you knew I felt it (Just say you'll stay) I'm shaking my darling please (Just say you'll stay) Don't leave you're all I need (Just say you'll stay) Just say you'll stay 'Cause I ain't going nowhere, babe [Chorus/Outro] I already do I already do I'm so scared to tell you But I already do Oh, I already do I hope you don't mind if I say it 'Cause I tell you it's true There's no way 'round it, babe I tell you I already do I already do Yeah, I already do I already love you

*Internalized homophobia's words, not mine. Obligatory "obviously there's nothing wrong with queer love" statement. 😅

i genuinely don't care how good a piece of ai generated art or writing looks on the surface. i don't care if it emulates brush strokes and metaphor in a way indistinguishable from those created by a person.

it is not the product of thoughtful creation. it offers no insights into the creator's life or viewpoint. it has no connection to a moment in time or a place or an attitude. it has no perspective. it has no value.

it's empty, it's hollow, and it exists only to generate clicks (and by extension, ad revenue.)

it's just another revolting symptom of the disease that is late stage capitalism, and it fucking sucks.

horror being very specific with table manners and he berates people (dust and killer) for eating like fucking pigs

i think it'd be morbidly funny that because there was no food in horrortale but the cutlery and stuff was all there that maybe he would pretend to eat with no food on the plate. it was in a satirical way that he would joke maybe around horror paps or alone where he would pretend to eat and have really good table manners but then the satire joke became REAL and now horror is incredibly specific about how to eat food

you MUST hold the fork in the left and knife in right says horror. no killer you can't duel wield the fucking knives this is a table not a slaughterhouse. dust pick up your elbows off the table. actually how about you get your entire upper body off the table tf why are you SLEEPING ON THE FOOD??? killer's sitting fetal position in the chair because of course he wouldn't sit normally like the idiot he is. dust is forced to put his hood down and reveal his face no more mysterious shadow style because it puts horror at ease. they cannot have a single peaceful meal because once they get past the table manners phase it then becomes a completion to see who can eat the least (because they suck at everything including eating)

[loisfreakinglane]

so many buffyverse characters were written to be oneoffs but became vital characters for many years to come. it feels organic and helps the worldbuilding so much.

but not kendra. not kendra!!!!!!!!!! who is IMMEDIATELY so vibrant and fascinating, bubbly and headstrong and proud and judgmental, a huge bookworm who laughs about excessive footnotes, who stammers in front of boys, who loves crop tops and makeup and heavy jewelry. kendra who trades insults with buffy, then softly asks for her help. calls buffy weird for dating a vampire, mocks her for dying, then tells her she learned so much just from their short time together. kendra who was taken from her parents so young she doesn't remember them, who's never had friends, who isn't allowed to speak to boys or go to school or have a life.

of all characters who deserved to be written into the narrative, or be resurrected after they died, she makes the top of the list

the boys s4 finale spoilers

ryan did nothing wrong tbh. he's been lied to and isolated his whole life. how else was he supposed to react when mallory and butcher not only dumped all of his father's wrongdoings on him, but actively tricked him with the intent of keeping him captive? and even then not JUST keeping him captive but forcing him into being a weapon against his own father? sure mallory/butcher were desperate for any means to take down homelander but it was super fucked up to put ryan in that position. homelander is the only living family that ryan has, and regardless of homelander's status as a shitty person it's clear that he cares for ryan in his own way

you ever see someone complain about something in a game that makes you think they just don’t like the game itself because why are you complaining about that. that's universally loved and your complaint is that it 'could do more'. where is your whimsy

Being disabled and relying on someone who sees you as a burden is not something I'd recommend

[liedownquisition]

I'm so tired.

Bonus meme under cut:

This is both for him in general (or at least the fanon version dominating fics) and extra for him as Robin specifically tbh. Let him grow up and find an identity outside of being Bruce's emotional support child. It's not like it's actually helping anymore anyways.
