TV | Penny Dreadful (2014-2016)

This review has sat in my drafts for over a year. (It’s been a weird year, don’t judge me). Although I had a few notes sufficient enough to write a review from and could have probably have finished and posted something by now, I will honestly say that I have pondered Penny Dreadful this entire period of time. Even as I watch other series and take part in other media, every so often my mind wanders back to Penny Dreadful. Whether the show intrigued me or irked me has not entirely been decided, to the point where I am almost feel hastened to watch the show again with more attentiveness. But, just as I feel about Marvel’s Iron Fist series, I’m not sure I want to endure some of the more vexing qualities of Penny Dreadful a second time around (though I sadly will for Iron Fist as I once again attempt to complete the entire Defenders collection).

Let’s see what I can make of my long-stored memories.

Penny Dreadful derives its name from what is essentially Victorian England’s version of a comic book, typically with narratives of crime or violence. As per Britannica, these eight-page installments – also called “dime novels” or “bloods” – were carelessly written second-rate works full of gory themes. While I wouldn’t say the series to be careless or second-rate, it definitely hits the crime, violence, and horror right on the nose to give its namesake proper honor.

Set in the late 1800s, Penny Dreadful bears resemblance to The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen in that it includes characters from various works of classic literature, though Penny Dreadful sticks to the obvious era of Victorian Gothic. Although its main characters Sir Malcolm Murray (Timothy Dalton), Vanessa Ives (Eva Green), and Ethan Chandler (Josh Hartnett) were created for the show, its supporting cast are directly named after major literary characters – Dorian Gray (Reeve Carney), Dr. Victor Frankenstein (Harry Treadaway) and his Creature (Rory Kinnear), as well as brief appearances throughout by Mina Harker, Abraham Van Helsing, Dr. Henry Jekyll (sadly, while the science is included, Jekyll’s own counterpart Hyde was not), Dracula, and Justine (from The Misfortunes of Virtue). It has been discussed online that the character of Malcolm is based on famed adventurer Allan Quartermain from King Solomon’s Mines and, by name, obviously a derivative of Mina Murray’s father from Dracula; however, he was not mentioned in the novel. Similarly, Vanessa Ives is said to be based on Mina’s best friend Lucy Westenra. Furthermore, the story arc of Brona, who then becomes “Lily Frankenstein,” shares obvious similarities to that of the Bride of Frankenstein.

The rich inspiration from classic literature is what initially drew me to watch Penny Dreadful, along with the hype I read when it was initially released in 2014. Despite the fact that I am typically not one for horror-based film or television, I undertook the task regardless. Per my usual reasoning (I swear I write this in everything and I apologize lol), I wanted to discover for myself if it was truly as great as the critics say. And dare I say, it was actually true for the first season. I remember posting something on Instagram stating how I understood the public interest in the show and that I was excited to continue on. While it has no doubt been some time since I’ve viewed the material, I distinctly remember my personal fascination dwindle shortly thereafter. Had I any sort of ability to abandon the media I try to consume, it might have caused me to not finish the show. But alas, I’m one of those hopefuls that thinks maybe it will get better. Plus, can you really say you watched something if you didn’t watch the entire thing? My answer: no. Must watch it all to have a proper opinion!

Wherein the first season focuses primarily on finding a kidnapped Mina Murray, with tolerable amounts of arc for Frankenstein, his creature, the mysterious Ethan Chandler, and Dorian Gray...  the latter seasons revolving around witches and “nightcomers” (season two), and Dracula (season three) – as well as the constant battles between Frankenstein’s scientist vs. his creations, the dragged out uncovering of Ethan’s background, and Dorian’s inability to keep it in his pants – just didn’t seem to have the same charm to me as the initial season. Maybe it was the story? Were these the best “big bads” writers could come up with? I suppose, yes, considering the source material of that particular period, there’s only so much to work with. But to have the first season’s enemy be simply a vampire and the third season’s Dracula, it seems to me like missed opportunity (like using Dracula in his actual storyline) or they were really just recycling material. You used vampires once already; was doing it again with one buffer season in between really your only option?

Other nagging details that truthfully somewhat prevent me from watching the series again include things like: how much of Vanessa’s “dialogue” actually includes Eva Green’s ability to make guttural sounds; how certain arcs overwhelmed the series (like Frankenstein’s Creature and Lily, though kudos to Penny Dreadful for exploring their thoughts/feelings that other films or shows have not), compared to others tales that were not fleshed out enough; characters from literature left me wanting more, even if I did already know their mythos (Dorian, for example, was merely only a brief glimpse at his portrait, no explanation of its mysticism); and lastly, Lily’s entire story felt too much for me. While I admire the show’s portrayal of feminism, body autonomy, and a sense of sisterhood amongst Lily and her “army,” her approach to these topics also felt preachy and eventually fell more into a “savior” complex. I can understand the rediscovery of life as a newly reanimated human, re-comprehending life and death, not allowing any man to “own” her purely based on his say-so... but the way the show writers approached it was not my favorite. Billie Piper was great in her role, but towards the end of her arc, I was bored with Lily’s endeavors.

My biggest pet peeve surrounding this show, however, was actual a very random detail – Ethan and Brona (Lily, in her previous life) had a very intense relationship during the first season before she succumbs to illness. How is it, despite both of their prominence in the show and their respective arcs, as well as mutual acquaintances with other characters, that Ethan never ever crossed paths with Lily at all once she was reborn? Was it because he would obviously recognize her as Brona and writers didn’t know how to incorporate that detail into the show? Was it because they wanted Lily to remain purely a character in Frankenstein’s and Dorian’s arcs? Someone please answer this for me, because it drives me nuts.

All in all, Penny Dreadful started strong and I did enjoy it at first, but its subsequent seasons and finale felt less than spectacular. What was once an enjoyable suspenseful thriller turned into a psychological drama looking to interpret everyone’s personal issues and traumas rather than working together for a common, supernatural cause. Where the first season saw everyone as a collective group, I feel the show slowly but surely lost its charm by increasing their solo arcs without much interaction amongst everyone as a whole. It’s not to say that they never spoke to one another (Ethan and Lily being the exception), but their interactivity became increasingly minimal. I will give writers some credit in that, for some characters, this solitude reflected their emotions and was necessary for their arc. But maybe I just believe the show was better when the ensemble was a more cohesive whole.

writing masterpost

Masterpost for my works - which is mostly fanfiction, with one original short story that happens to be here. Since they are scattered on here and on ao3 it’s getting difficult to keep track so I thought I’d gather them all and add on as I write (　◜◡‾)

Jibaku Shounen Hanako-kun

warmth, ~1100 words, hananene, rated G, hurt/comfort, fluff, they are in love but they don’t really know yet, also Hanako needs to be protected

The sunset streams in through the window, paints the bathroom in watercolour golds and pinks and oranges, and it's breathtaking. It must be warm – the light tinges his hand red and nothing else, and he does not cast a shadow against the door even though he's standing right in front of it. He doesn't exist. At least not in the actual sense of the word.

You shouldn't miss something you can't even remember, but Hanako does anyway.

now sleeps the crimson petal, now the white, ~6700 words, hananene, rated T, hanahaki disease, angst with a happy ending

(If you love someone in secret, or if your love is one-sided... sometimes, they say, if your bond is strong, your lungs will sprout flowers.

Aoi’s voice is clear as day in her memories, as is her mischievous grin while she tells her all about a curse, and about the way roots will pierce through your lungs and buds will crowd in your windpipe, like unspoken words of love do.)

It can’t be. But the the petals mock her with their beauty - she holds them between her fingers, careful, and they’re soft and fragile and she doesn’t know how something so delicate could ever cause her so much pain. She throws them away. It can’t be. It will pass.

Hanako brings flowers in his name. It’s only fair he’d bring them in Yashiro’s heart, too.

Assassination Classroom

the way you sing for me, ~1600 words, karunagi, rated E, aged up characters and light dom/sub

Karma has a problem. A really pretty, really loud problem. (It isn’t, in fact, a problem he has. It’s a problem the neighbours have that he happens to be accountable for.) Nagisa might be able to sneak up on Japan’s most feared assassins, but sure as hell he doesn’t make for a good neighbour. Karma tries to help. (More or less.)

The completely normal life of Karma Akabane, ~1200 words, karunagi, rated G, aged up characters and some fluff

Nagisa is a creature of habit - able to pull it off only because of the absolute surprise every day with him manages to be, with assassins still visiting them for dinner once a month and class reunions as often as they can. […]

Nagisa is set in his ways to the point that Karma knows from first-hand experience that very few things can stop him from starting to cook dinner at six o'clock.

Bungou Stray Dogs

Quiet days, ~1700 words, dazushi, rated G, getting-together-fluff and kind of a slice-of-life

They don’t get many quiet days, at the Agency. There are jobs to do and people to help and things to arrange, and they’re desperately understaffed ever since he can remember. No one has time for things like quiet. (Except sometimes they do.) […] Life at the Armed Detective Agency is dangerous and chaotic. An hectic mess, except when it’s not.

in your ears, eyes, hands, ~2200 words, dazushi, rated E, light dom/sub and rope bondage

He can’t see. The blindfold is securely tied over his eyes, plunging him in darkness he can’t breach with the tiger’s sight. Not that he actually can use it, anyway, not when Dazai makes sure to always be touching him. Sometimes, the tiger needs taming. Dazai is more than happy to provide an helping hand.

the mystery of love, ~1200 words, dazushi, rated G, everyone knows they’re dating except Atsushi

“Why does Dazai-san never come home for dinner?”, she asks, and he doesn’t really understand her point. Nor why she would ask in the first place - none of the others ever comes around for dinner, and she never seemed bothered by it.

“Neither does Kunikida, or Kenji, or Ranpo-san,” he says, trying to understand her reasons. She’s not fazed, taking another bite from the fish.

“But Kunikida-san or Kenji or Ranpo-san aren’t Dazai-san,” she replies, like it’s so completely obvious it’s not worth mentioning again.

during the storm, ~1200 words, dazushi, rated G, Dazai has nightmares even if he won’t admit it

He knows Dazai has a terrible bedhead in the mornings, he knows he likes to get up first and make breakfast for him and Kyouka even though he’s kind-of-probably still a guest, he knows he drinks definitely too much coffee, black and too strong for Atsushi to even tolerate its smell.

He knows what it feels like waking up next to someone and seeing their face still drowsy with sleep, he knows what it means to fall asleep to steady breathing close to him and an arm casually wrapped around his middle. He knows Dazai doesn’t sleep as much as he should, and he knows that he has nightmares on rainy nights.

He often has, but rainy nights are the worst. Atsushi is not about to ask why.

Boku no hero academia

waiting for you to come home, ~1500, tododeku, rated G, aged up and married characters, some sweet thing about the everyday life of superheroes

It’s hard to be one of the top superheroes in a city as busy and villain-ridden as Musutafu. Sure, it’s not Tokyo, but that somehow only makes it worse. […] It’s even harder to be married to one of the top superheroes in Musutafu. Or, in his case, to the top superhero of the city. Being heroes isn’t easy. Being married heroes just about doubles the difficulty.

Hakata Tonkotsu Ramens

of courtains and betrayals, ~1000, banlin, rated G, prompt filling with everyday fluff and bickering idiots

Hitmen never die pretty deaths. Apparently, his not only won’t be pretty, but painful too. An extremely painful suicide. And all because he couldn’t tell the fundamental difference between forest green and peacock green. Or keep his mouth shut, for all that matters.

Poetic.

The Great Plan to Take Lin Xiaoming To The Gay Pride, ~1300, banlin, rated G, Lin has never heard of Pride and Banba makes sure to change that

There are things that everyone should do at least once before dying. And seen as likely as it is for a hitman to die any given day, before dying implies well before being twenty-one.

Those things include marching in a Pride - hell, knowing what a Pride is, in the first place.

It takes a while to explain it to him, and even when Banba manages, Lin doesn’t seem so enthusiastic.

Banba isn’t sure if it’s because he hates people or because he doesn’t believe him.

Haikyuu!!

to think of time, ~6700 words, daisuga, rated T, Major Character Death (for in-verse situation), a Kimi no na wa daisuga au

It feels like falling. Falling in a life that isn’t his own, he sees colours and shapes exploding in all the corners of is mind, filling him to the brink with love for someone he doesn’t know. (For him.) […] He sees dancing and sunlight, and broken smiles smiled in a mirror – and he feels so full of life he could burst, and he has no idea how all this can be only half of him. (He thinks that if he was ever to see him whole, Suga could blind him for good.)

Shingeki no Kyojin

unfolded in brilliant lights, ~4300 words, eruri, rated E, dom/sub play, multiple orgasms and sub!Erwin

He doesn’t say anything. They look at each other, instead, for a long moment filled with silence. Levi’s gaze is heavy, meaningful. Assessing him, too. It makes him restless, already helplessly pinned under it before Levi even talks. The alcohol is a faraway thought in the back of his mind, almost forgotten. He needs this, now. (It had started because he needed it. […] Sometimes, it’s just easier to let Levi take charge.

Yuuri!!! on Ice

tip of my tongue, ~3400 words, fem!victuuri, rated E, a birthday smut for Victor with face-sitting and happy lesbians in general

«Vika?» «Mh?» «Vika.» «Mmh?» «What do you want for your birthday?» «You сидишь на my face.» «What?» «Don’t know the thing. Verb. Like on a chair.» «To sit?» «Да, that. Sit. On my face. Now sleep, ’s so late.»

Viktoriya’s birthday is in two weeks, and Yuuri has absolutely no idea what to get her. Luckily, she’s not as hard to please as one would think.

«I saw you in a painting, once. You looked younger.» Serena would laugh, at that, if it was appropriate. She stops before going through with it, the girl’s eyes flashing deep black in her mind. Maybe she can get a little afraid, sometimes.

20 Facts That Show How Incredibly Friendly Maine Coons Are

It is pretty common knowledge that Maine Coons are one of the friendliest and most likable cat breeds in the world. Touted as the “dogs of the cat world,” they possess a unique combination of cat-like behavior with a dog-like temperament.

For those who have owned a Maine Coon, the following outline that showcases a Maine Coons friendly tendencies will not come as a surprise. Read on to discover our 20 facts that emphasize the friendliness factor of this furry feline!

1. An Office Companion

Almost as if they know how bad you really wanted to be working (wink wink!), Maine Coons love to accompany you at your desk. Not that it takes a whole lot to distract most of us from working, but the Maine Coon really goes the extra mile on this front.

This big kitty is not shy about disrupting the drone of your workday. From walking in front of the computer screen to pouncing on the keyboard, they will creatively hinder your productivity with ease!

2. Gives Good Morning Greetings

As any best friend is prone to do, your Maine Coon is sure to deliver that good morning vibe, enthusiastically and on time.

Since they are not particularly proficient with the newest in technological advancement, they won’t be shooting you a text either.

You can count on this wake-up call to be in the flesh, up close and personal. Every morning like clockwork you’ll become accustomed to attention-getters like:

A brush of wiry whiskers from your cat’s nose

The lick of a coarse tongue across your forehead

Purring and pawing (not necessarily in that order!)

3. Book Buddy

We can neither confirm nor deny the comprehensive reading skills of your Maine Coon, but we do know one thing: he/she thoroughly enjoys a good book break.

No matter what kind of books you are into, expect that your large kitty will enjoy it just as much, if not more than you do!

Reading together will serve to strengthen the bond you have, just make sure you have enough room to enjoy each other’s company comfortable. A spot on your lap or a double wide lazy boy will do just fine!

4. Loves Head Bumps and Nose Rubs

When you are going about your normal, everyday business, your cat will make sure you don’t forget about the most important part of your day: them!

As you walk by or sit around, they absolutely love to give your leg a good bump with their head or rub up on you with their nose and whiskers. This affectionate gesture is driven by a desire of your cat to leave its scent on those who are important and loved.

  5. Welcomes You Home

If you are like a lot of us, you have the unfortunate duty of working outside your home and leaving your family and fur babies at home while you are away.

However, they didn’t coin the phrase “Absence makes the heart grow fonder” for no reason! Whenever you do arrive back home, get ready for an excited barrage of greetings including:

Purring and trilling

Head rubbing and body bumping against your legs

Brushing whiskers and arching their back into your petting hand

6. A TV Tagalong

You may not be aware of this, but your Maine Coon can be just as fond of your television set as you are.

Just flip on your favorite show and prepare for an evening of binge-watching with your best feline friend. They make a great and cuddly movie night companion.

Perhaps the best part of all is that they won’t even fight for dominion over the remote control! However, they will insist on having the best seat in the house, which includes your lap or chest.

7. Dog Whisperer

Not only are they known for exhibiting similar traits and tendencies as a puppy, but they are even extremely tolerant of dogs as a part of the family.

Unlike most other breeds of cats, Maine Coons don’t often go on the defensive around their canine companions.

Although the exact reason is not known, some theorize that their large size gives them a dose of confidence and keeps them from feeling threatened the way other cats might. Who says you have to be a cat OR dog person?!

8. Kid Friendly Feline

Consistent with their friendly attitude and caring nature, these cat companions are absolutely wonderful for children as well.

Their laid back and content attitude mean that they can keep their cool and handle the sometimes rough and unintended play of small children.

They are extremely gentle and are not likely to lash out, scratch, or play too rough when confronted with kids. This is a great benefit in kid-heavy households. In situations where other cats would tend to become defensive or aggressive, a Maine Coon responds with grace and patience in the face of:

Being carried around

Being tripped on

Rough play

9. Great with Other Animals

Just as they are naturally wonderful around dogs and small children, Maine Coons can get along great with just about any other member of the animal kingdom.

They are independent and confident, which makes them easy-going and more or less apathetic in regard to the presence of other pets.

If your other animal family members are up for it, they will even make a great playmate. They absolutely thrive on fun-loving and playful banter and are gentle enough to restrain themselves so as not to unintentionally harm other creatures.

10. Food Fight Free

What’s the ultimate test of a pet’s temperament? It’s behavior and attitude towards food and water, particularly how they react when they perceive a threat to these beloved resources.

It is common with other cats and dogs to react with “food aggression” that causes them to be extremely protective, even resorting to threatening behavior or sometimes violence.

With most Maine Coons, this does not become an issue. To make sure your cat does not develop an issue, make sure they do not need to compete for food. This can be as simple as having separate dishes and locations for each pet’s food.

11. Loves Leash Walking

It may seem a bit strange to think of a proud and majestic Maine Coon strutting its stuff at the end of your leash, but this is actually quite common. Even though it is not a required activity, you may choose to walk your Maine Coon for the following reasons:

Great form of exercise for both of you, especially if it is a strictly indoor pet

They can accompany the family on trips to the park or the beach

A change of scenery and excitement for your cat

12. Can Learn to “Go Fetch!”

Hand in hand with walking your cat like a dog, many Maine Coons also enjoy the classic game of playing fetch.

While many cats are apt at chasing or playing with objects such as balls, strings, sticks, and the like, few cats are likely to return the object to you once thrown. Maine Coons seem to have this instinct naturally and catch on rapidly to this entertaining play.

13. The Talkative Type

One characteristic of many best friends is that you feel comfortable having a casual conversation with them and may even sit and talk for hours about everything (or nothing!). The Maine Coon is no exception!

They love to chatter, albeit in the language of purring, trilling, and other cat noises. Interestingly though, they typically refrain from the “meow” sound that is so closely associated with cats in general.

14. Sharing the Spoils

You may have heard the phrase “spoils of war” at some point in time, which refers to the acquisition and distribution of a defeated enemy’s belongings by the victors. All members of the victorious group benefited from such spoils.

In the mind of your Maine Coon, you are perhaps akin to the battle commander. Anytime your gentle predator catches its enemy, such as a snake or mouse, you have the distinct privilege of getting a share of the prize!

15. Is a Real Life “Feline Follower”

If you keep up on the modern means of social interaction, you have heard of the term “followers” to describe people that take an active interest in your online activity across various social media platforms.

By contrast, your Maine Coon is an original, real-life “follower.” Fond of being ever in your presence, they will constantly seek out your affection, and you’ll often find them right on your heels as you go through your day.

16. Is Always Ready for Nap Time!

Needing to take some time in the middle of the day to rest and recharge? No problem! Maine Coons are always down for a great midday nap session. This is one area where the blending of dog and cat characteristics is very evident.

While the high-energy affection of a dog often keeps you from experiencing an impromptu nap when you get home from work, your Maine Coon is happy to participate inactively!

17. Enjoys Belly Rubbing

In another instance of behavior that mirrors actions that are more common among canine companions, Maine Coons enjoy the infamous belly rub.

If you are not sure if your fuzzy friend is fond of this, don’t worry because it will be obvious if they are. If they fall to their side and roll over as you pet them, that’s your hint to go for the gut!

After all, why should they strain to reach “the spot” when you are perfectly suited to reach it for them?!

18. Is Friendly at Bath Time

For most house pets, bath time is terrifying and unpleasant. If you have ever tried to bathe a typical cat, you know that it can be a dangerous endeavor.

Given the large size of the Maine Coon, you may be thinking that a bubble bath could turn to a blood bath in an instant. You’ll be happy to hear that this is not the case!

Their gentle manner and kind personality do not change just because you put them in the tub. In fact, many Maine Coons are actually fond of water and are even known to be skilled swimmers.

19. Keen on Providing Comfort

Typical of many pets, Maine Coons also have an uncanny ability to catch onto and interpret human behavioral clues.

You may have noticed that when you are in a bad mood, your cat seems to pick up on this and know how you are feeling.

When they notice you are down, it is common for them to attempt to comfort you and improve your mood through a variety of actions. Common comforting behaviors include:

Extra purring

Soft trilling sounds

Rubbing their snout and whiskers on you

20. Loves Company

While some animals are focused on protecting their domain from outsiders and are less than friendly when dealing with visitors to your home, Maine Coons are a naturally good host to company.

Rather than become defensive and aggressive, or disappearing to a hiding spot until outsiders vacate the premises, they can often be found greeting everyone as they come in.

They absolutely love to “make the rounds” and ensure that each and every guest is happy and has been attended to. This frees you up to provide the delicious and mouth-watering snacks! Put some hustle in your step now, chop, chop!

Conclusion

For all these reasons and more, you can understand why Maine Coons have earned their reputation as a friendly and fun-loving feline. I may be biased but owning Maine Coon is truly like picking the best qualities from typical house cats and merging them with your favorite dog qualities.

If you are looking for an incredibly friendly companion that loves and appreciates your presence, take the chance on a Maine Coon and discover the lifelong friendship they have to offer. I am confident that it is a decision you and your family will cherish for years to come!

Those things include marching in a Pride - hell, knowing what a Pride is, in the first place.

It takes a while to explain it to him, and even when Banba manages, Lin doesn’t seem so enthusiastic.

Banba isn’t sure if it’s because he hates people or because he doesn’t believe him.

Haikyuu!!

to think of time, ~6700 words, daisuga, rated T, Major Character Death (for in-verse situation), a Kimi no na wa daisuga au

It feels like falling. Falling in a life that isn’t his own, he sees colours and shapes exploding in all the corners of is mind, filling him to the brink with love for someone he doesn’t know. (For him.) […] He sees dancing and sunlight, and broken smiles smiled in a mirror – and he feels so full of life he could burst, and he has no idea how all this can be only half of him. (He thinks that if he was ever to see him whole, Suga could blind him for good.)

Shingeki no Kyojin

He doesn’t say anything. They look at each other, instead, for a long moment filled with silence. Levi’s gaze is heavy, meaningful. Assessing him, too. It makes him restless, already helplessly pinned under it before Levi even talks. The alcohol is a faraway thought in the back of his mind, almost forgotten. He needs this, now. (It had started because he needed it. […] Sometimes, it’s just easier to let Levi take charge.

Original writing

blood and roses (or caffeine challenge #26), ~1000 words, rated G, femslash, it involves supernatural girlfriends and some subtle pining mostly

«I saw you in a painting, once. You looked younger.» Serena would laugh, at that, if it was appropriate. She stops before going through with it, the girl’s eyes flashing deep black in her mind. Maybe she can get a little afraid, sometimes.

writing masterpost

Masterpost for my works - which is mostly fanfiction, with one original short story that happens to be here. Since they are scattered on here and on ao3 it’s getting difficult to keep track so I thought I’d gather them all and add on as I write (　◜◡‾)

Assassination Classroom

the way you sing for me, ~1600 words, karunagi, rated E, aged up characters and light dom/sub

Karma has a problem. A really pretty, really loud problem. (It isn't, in fact, a problem he has. It's a problem the neighbours have that he happens to be accountable for.) Nagisa might be able to sneak up on Japan's most feared assassins, but sure as hell he doesn't make for a good neighbour. Karma tries to help. (More or less.) 

The completely normal life of Karma Akabane, ~1200 words, karunagi, rated G, aged up characters and some fluff

Nagisa is a creature of habit - able to pull it off only because of the absolute surprise every day with him manages to be, with assassins still visiting them for dinner once a month and class reunions as often as they can. [...]

Nagisa is set in his ways to the point that Karma knows from first-hand experience that very few things can stop him from starting to cook dinner at six o'clock.

Bungou Stray Dogs

Quiet days, ~1700 words, dazushi, rated G, getting-together-fluff and kind of a slice-of-life

They don't get many quiet days, at the Agency. There are jobs to do and people to help and things to arrange, and they're desperately understaffed ever since he can remember. No one has time for things like quiet. (Except sometimes they do.) [...] Life at the Armed Detective Agency is dangerous and chaotic. An hectic mess, except when it's not.

in your ears, eyes, hands, ~2200 words, dazushi, rated E, light dom/sub and rope bondage

He can't see. The blindfold is securely tied over his eyes, plunging him in darkness he can't breach with the tiger's sight. Not that he actually can use it, anyway, not when Dazai makes sure to always be touching him. Sometimes, the tiger needs taming. Dazai is more than happy to provide an helping hand.

the mystery of love, ~1200 words, dazushi, rated G, everyone knows they’re dating except Atsushi

“Why does Dazai-san never come home for dinner?”, she asks, and he doesn’t really understand her point. Nor why she would ask in the first place - none of the others ever comes around for dinner, and she never seemed bothered by it.

“Neither does Kunikida, or Kenji, or Ranpo-san,” he says, trying to understand her reasons. She’s not fazed, taking another bite from the fish.

“But Kunikida-san or Kenji or Ranpo-san aren’t Dazai-san,” she replies, like it’s so completely obvious it’s not worth mentioning again.

during the storm, ~1200 words, dazushi, rated G, Dazai has nightmares even if he won’t admit it

He knows Dazai has a terrible bedhead in the mornings, he knows he likes to get up first and make breakfast for him and Kyouka even though he’s kind-of-probably still a guest, he knows he drinks definitely too much coffee, black and too strong for Atsushi to even tolerate its smell.

He knows what it feels like waking up next to someone and seeing their face still drowsy with sleep, he knows what it means to fall asleep to steady breathing close to him and an arm casually wrapped around his middle. He knows Dazai doesn’t sleep as much as he should, and he knows that he has nightmares on rainy nights.

He often has, but rainy nights are the worst. Atsushi is not about to ask why.

Boku no hero academia

waiting for you to come home, ~1500, tododeku, rated G, aged up and married characters, some sweet thing about the everyday life of superheroes

It's hard to be one of the top superheroes in a city as busy and villain-ridden as Musutafu. Sure, it's not Tokyo, but that somehow only makes it worse. [...] It's even harder to be married to one of the top superheroes in Musutafu. Or, in his case, to the top superhero of the city. Being heroes isn't easy. Being married heroes just about doubles the difficulty.

Hakata Tonkotsu Ramens

of courtains and betrayals, ~1000, banlin, rated G, prompt filling with everyday fluff and bickering idiots

Hitmen never die pretty deaths. Apparently, his not only won’t be pretty, but painful too. An extremely painful suicide. And all because he couldn’t tell the fundamental difference between forest green and peacock green. Or keep his mouth shut, for all that matters.

Poetic.
