writing patterns ✨

rules: share the first line of your last ten published works or as many as you are able and see if there are any patterns!

i was tagged by the incredible @nyxi-pixie to do this & i’m finally getting around to it 🥲

Baby I Know Places We Won't Be Found (skk, babyzai, multichapter)

“No, they slipped away before I could get a good look at them.”

Better Not to Hear You (skk ft. the flags, sickfic)

Lippmann closed the door behind him as he left the Boss’s office.

Damsel in Which Dress (skk, undercover mission)

“This is ridiculous,” Chuuya muttered as Kouyou bustled around him, adjusting his dress.

More Than Meets the Eye (skk ft. the Akutagawas, sickfic)

Gin watched as her brother dodged another metal disk, Rashomon striking out like a viper.

Don’t Let Me Down (skk, ch 114 missing scene)

“What he needed…was to be killed by a vampire.”

A Joyless Ride (skk, sickfic)

“Move your ass, Shitty Dazai. We gotta get outta here before the cops show up.”

All the Better to See You With (skk, post canon fluff)

“That should be the last one.” Chuuya clapped the dirt off of his gloves as he finished relocating a heavy, metal support beam.

Is There a Way to Make This Last Forever? (skk, roommates au)

Chuuya checked his phone for what felt like the hundredth time in the last half hour.

Home Alone (With You) (skk, sickfic)

Dazai peeled back heavy eyelids to stare into the pitch black above him.

Weapon of Mass Contagion (skk, sickfic)

Chuuya sniffled as he waited outside the airport.

the only pattens i noticed were that i either start with dialogue or i establish the status of the pov character. i usually try to make my first sentence a hook :’)

idk if any of you have already done this but i’m tagging @whathorselegs @unicornpopcorn14 @theroadtosomewhere @amythecinnabunny & @play-rough bc i’d love to see yours 🥹 (+ anyone who wants to join— no pressure ofc!!) 💕

Similarities between Ch 24-25 and current storyline of BSD:

For context, Ch 24 & 25 deal with Q introduction and Q brainwashing Atsushi, only for Dazai to return and save him.

In ch 24, Dazai and Atsushi are together when Dazai senses a threat- somebody is following them, i.e. mafia. Dazai leaves Atsushi behind alone and goes to deal with the threat.

Dazai exchanges words with Higuchi and Gin trying to figure out what their plan is.

Dazai realizes that Q(Kyuusaku) was released, and the threat was not with him, but with Atsushi whom Dazai left behind.

Dazai rushes back to save Atsushi--

Meanwhile, Atsushi's co-workers Naomi and Haruno are injured and Atsushi breaks down feeling he is responsible for it(even though it was Q's brainwashing.)

Atsushi breaks down and feels unworthy to be alive--

Dazai arrives and neutralizes the threat of Q.

Dazai saves Atsushi from the brink of despair with some advise and a questionable slap to Atsushi's face to wake him out of his downward spiral.

Current storyline:

Dazai senses the looming threat of Fyodor over the ADA and Atsushi. Dazai leaves Atsushi behind but this time with ADA and Akutagawa as backup!

Dazai mentally spars with Fyodor during his stay at jail, trying to uncover Fyodor's plans.

Dazai realizes a great calamity has been unleashed(god-like Fukuchi & Fyodor), the actual threat was not in Meursault but back at the airport in Yokohama with Atsushi and others.

Dazai is far away but trying to get back--

Meawhile, Atsushi's co-workers Tanizaki, Kunikida and Kenji are killed before him and Atsushi feels responsible for their fates as it was his fault he failed to save them!

Atsushi breaks down and accepts his impending death---

!!! It is Fyodor who arrives and neutralizes the threat of Fukuchi!!!

Fyodor arrives with a proclamation that he is here to save Atsushi...? (Atsushi who is currently vulnerable and in a downward guilt spiral!)

Ch 24-25 ends on a happier note with Atsushi finally crying and recovering from his downward spiral, he finds some support and hope as he follows Dazai and his colleagues back to the agency.

But what about the current storyline?

Because Fyodor has kinda hijacked Dazai's role as Atsushi's saviour-- saviour as in the person Atsushi relies on for hope and guidance when the situation is dire. (not that Atsushi is happy with this new saviour.)

Will Fyodor really "save" Atsushi? If so what is he actually saving Atsushi from?

And what about Dazai? Can he return in time to save Atsushi and the rest of the ADA?

As always, there are so many questions...

Thanks for the tag @msshinylemon and @nolongerforthetainted 😊

Fanfic Writer Interview

How many works do you have on AO3?

I’ve only been writing fanfic for a few months and I don’t have any that I’m satisfied with/ brave enough to post yet (hoping to post some soon though). But this is fun so I wanna do it for my WIPs anyways.

Your top 5 stories by kudos/likes:

Can’t do top kudos’d fics but some of my current WIPs, all for bsd, are:

A currently untitled AU where Dazai is the head and solitary member of a large, wealthy estate who is growing increasingly disenchanted with his life. This starts to change when he meets and hires the fiery Chuuya to be his maid.

Treading a fine line - A Phantom Thief!Dazai and Detective!Chuuya AU inspired by the Mayoi cards. Chuuya has no clue the infuriating and elusive thief he’s been chasing for months is also the charming (but still infuriating) man he’s been dating and is slowly falling for.

A currently untitled HiguGin oneshot with little plot, it’s mostly just them falling in love. It takes place during/after ch.41 of the manga where Higuchi first sees Akutagawa with Gin and mistakes her for his girlfriend. And Higuchi’s first thought upon seeing them together is ‘Oh no, she’s hot.’

Do you respond to comments? Why or why not?

I will when I finally post to Ao3, because I love when authors take the time to reply to my comments.

What’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending?

I cannot do angsty endings. Angst in the middle is great, but I am very much a ‘happily ever after’ kinda person.

What’s the fic you’ve written with the happiest ending?

I haven’t finished many fics, but the higugin fic I listed above is two girlies becoming friends and falling in love, so that fits the bill. 

Do you write crossovers?

No, I prefer to take characters from one thing and plop them into the world of another thing as an AU.

Have you ever received hate on a fic?

Nope, I’ve only ever posted my stuff on tumblr and yall are so nice here.

Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

I’ve been dabbling in writing smut, still figuring out what kind I like to write.

Have you ever had a fic stolen?

Can’t steal what's not there hehe.

Have you ever had a fic translated?

Not applicable

Have you ever co-written a fic before?

Nope, but would like to at some point.

What’s your all-time favorite ship?

Picking one is impossible. As bsd is my current obsession, skk and HiguGin. I also love Joker/Akechi from Persona 5 and Dorian/Inquisitor from Dragon Age Inquisition.

What’s a WIP that you want to finish but don’t think you ever will?

My Yosano/Koyo omegaverse AU where they are alpha/alpha. I LOVE the premise, but haven’t got much of a plot to go with it.

What are your writing strengths?

Hmmm, maybe that I spend a lot of time trying to keep my characters in character. I worry a lot about whether what I’m writing is something the character would truly do or say. 

What are your writing weaknesses?

I need more descriptive imagery, and to explore the characters' inner thoughts more. As I’ve started writing more, that is something I am actively working to improve. And I need to work on the whole ‘show, don’t tell' thing. 

What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?

I think it’s fun. I don’t tend to do it myself, as I haven’t really written stuff where people are speaking other languages.

What’s a fandom/ship you haven’t written for yet but want to?

I recently watched Arcane and fell in love with all of the characters. I really want to write something for Vi/Caitlyn, I love them alot. And also Jayce/Viktor.

What’s your favorite fic you’ve written?

I’m really liking my head of the house Dazai and Maid Chuuya AU. I’ve been suffering from Maid Chuuya brainrot for a while and it’s so fun to put my angry boy in a pretty maid dress. It’s also the first multi chapter fic I’m attempting, so I’m enjoying that process. 

I know we've only interacted like once so no pressure lol, but I know you write fanfic so thought I would tag you @samuraionyourmom

A series of un-fortunate events

behold: the promised sskk from kunikida's pov fic

Read here.

[askryuu]

here's the video, if you're wondering.

"[A video suddenly starts playing on a TV, showing a reporter talking while the Port Mafia’s five-skyscraper base looms in the background.]

[However, it soon becomes clear that the report is a glimpse into another universe—one where bad events befell the Port Mafia.]

[“…months after the Port Mafia’s fall, significant progress has been made in turning their former base into a memorial for the mafia’s victims. The exhibits will include victims’ names and photos—along with stories about them that will be shared by their loved ones. The Mafia Victims Memorial is set to open in early March next year.”]"(from this link: https://www.tumblr.com/askryuu/734366673863409664/for-ch%C5%ABya-and-gin-a-video-suddenly-starts?source=share)

have you not seen it before?

-🪶

This is… concerning… I-

Well now you had to go and ruin all my progress in all this~

Nakahara and the younger of the Akutagawa siblings had been a hassle… now him?

Who- what are you?! Rashō-

[a thud is heard as words die out, footsteps nearing the phone]

you would do well to refrain mentioning any information concerning the book, myself or any alternative timelines~

Akutagawa daily 341/★

[kitsunelike]

it's been long enough that i think i can talk about this and accept ill never have the motivation to finish it but eternity's timekeeper is one of my favorite things ive ever written and i had a lot of plans for that ill just summarize

the main plot was that after akutagawa's death in ch 87 that atsushi succeeded in defeating the rest of the DOA out of rage and obtained the book, in which he used to attempt to bring akutagawa back. instead, the book gave him a pocket watch that allowed atsushi to travel between universes and attempt to save akutagawa in these various timelines

i wrote out the vampire universe, apocalypse universe, and part of the beast universe segments. there were going to be two more segments with an erased au (with akutagawa as kayo and atsushi as satoru) and a universe connected to ANOTHER akutagawa fic i wrote in which akutagawa ability transfers rashomon to gin, who then joins the ADA. ect ect

the plot of the beast segment was really just beast dazai being like I Know What You Are and atsushi getting way too close to beast akutagawa leading to dazai deciding to take akutagawa down with him in his suicide to "get back" at atsushi

if you've watched erased you know what happens here... but if not the basic summary is little atsushi trying to protect little akutagawa as much as possible from a murderer. and the result is finding akutagawa's corpse again Anyways

and then the last one was just gonna be short in which atsushi finds out of gin that akutagawa had already died in that universe and drives atsushi to border insanity and rapid jump between universes until he basically Broke the universes and meets "sigma," or a personification of the book taking the form of sigma.

atsushi jumps universes again and ends up one near identical to his og universe except akutagawa is already dead. but before he can jump again a Second akutagawa appears with a similar pocket watch (atsushi of course thinks he's finally gone completely insane). akutagawa 2: electric boogaloo has been doing the exact same thing as atsushi bc in his og universe atsushi died instead. neither are quite like the others original pair but they decide it's for the best to stay together. so they travel to a new universe together and try to find normal in that. the end. ive been wanting to share this forever because I KNOW IT'S SO COOL but fuck my life guys writer's block is always killing me
