#dazai and akutugawa

[seaskate]

I always hate it when I see in fics and videos where people try to make it seem like Dazai was trying to make Akutagawa a killing machine while he was in the mafia, when it was actually the opposite. Akutagawa came to Dazai already a killer even at the age of fourteen (according to the Beast light novel) and Dazai was trying to teach him not to just kill everyone around him.

He wanted Aku to learn to bring in prisoners instead of corpses and to use his ability to defend himself instead of just attacking (like with the bullets).

I’m not saying that he did it the right way, like at all at all, but he wasn’t trying to make a killing machine either. We learn in Dark Era that he had great hopes for Akutagawa, hopes that Aku couldn’t meet just by killing everyone in his way without thought.

So he gave Akutagawa Atsushi, someone that will watch his back when he doesn’t think to do so himself and will be the safety on the gun for him, knowing when not to shoot.

In turn Akutugawa is all but beating the self loathing out of Atsushi, talking about how much he hates the way that Atsushi asks for permission to live. He makes Atsushi more ruthless and willing to do what is needed (like in dead Apple when Atsushi said that the Agency doesn’t kill and then pulls a gun on Akutagawa).

A killing machine was never in the cards.

Beast akutagawa reincarnated AU, incorrect quotes.

@starlightshadowsworld

Dazai: The best part of an oreo is the cookie part, not the frosting. Deal with it.

Atsushi: YO SOCRATES! IT'S A COOKIE!

Akutagawa: Dazai always accuses me of having a favourite ada member but that’s not true.

Akutagawa: I love kenji and all the not-kenjis equally.

Atsushi : ....

Kunikida: Without ugly, there would be no beauty in this world.

Akutagawa & chuuya, together : Thank you for your sacrifice, Dazai.

Akutagawa: They made Atsushi cry!

Dazai: Atsushi always cries!

Atsushi: That's not true! *cries*

Akutagawa : NOW YOU MADE HIM CRY--

Dazai : WHERE DID YOU GET THAT GIANT AXE FROM-

@christelightlavo

Thinking about Beast Akutugawa seeing how much Atsushi cares about and looks up to Dazai... Knowing what his Atsushi went through.

Just looks at Dazai like "you could live a thousand lifetimes and never deserve him."

Silver Lining by maxxstrom

Summary: Finding out that a lie has pervaded years of your life isn’t exactly a great way to end a mission, especially when it results in complete ignorance about your own biology. At twenty years old, Akutagawa had thought he was done learning about himself, but that doesn’t seem to be the case at all. As it turns out, he hardly knows a thing.

Alternatively, asexual “beta” Akutagawa finds out that he’s actually an omega and has to figure out how to deal with his first ever heat (a series of unfortunate events that ends with Aku getting railed within an inch of his life).

I'll call your name by caramelt

Summary: “Of all places to discuss the case,” Atsushi said as they made their way back to the busy crowd, voice getting louder with every step as he fought to compete with the noise around them. He had finished his chazuke not long ago. “Why a summer festival?”

“Has it not occurred to you that I'm taking you out on a date?”

Oh. Oh.

I Love You (deeply) by SapphireSunstone

Summary: Akutagawa almost wishes he hadn’t heard it.

He wishes that there wasn’t another figure pressed up against him underneath his own bedsheets. Wishes that he hadn’t invited Atsushi to stay for the night when he realised how dark it had gotten. Wishes he hadn’t opened the door when the were-tiger had knocked.

Because now he has to deal with this.

Stay by Glenraven

Summary: The port is loud with the caws of sea birds, the creak and clang of cranes and shipping containers, the rough calls of workers. Atsushi’s ears pick up all of the cacophony but parse none of it. All he can focus on are the words spoken by the dark figure in front of him, quietly, almost as though he is of half a mind not to be heard.

“Go out with me.”

Atsushi blinks. His ears don’t lie, but this isn’t making any sense.

“What?”

Akutagawa growls. “You heard me. Go out with me. This weekend. Let’s go somewhere.”

A hint of red crawls over Akutagawa’s cheeks. He wouldn’t blush if this were just a joke, would he?

and it was you by spirallings

Summary: Rashomon was Ryuunosuke's armor and his clothing created Rashomon. Even when his relationship with Atsushi bloomed into something more intimate, there was always that hesitation, that fear; to be vulnerable was to leave himself open for pain and hurt.

And then there wasn't anymore.

i just wanna know you by Wordless_Writer

Summary: "If he knew more, he supposed, about Akutagawa, about his pasts, his tics, his wishes... he wouldn't be having such a hard time right now. He'd know what to get him. How to... congratulate him...

Akutagawa hadn't been at the 'we defeated the guild' party and hadn't been mentioned in the local newspaper. When people approached Atsushi on the street, they never mentioned the person who had helped him. Who had been right next to him in the very picture that was published but cut out from the shot.

Atsushi didn't like Akutagawa... but he had helped so much... he deserved some..."

With the Warmth of Your Arms, you Saved Me by Glenraven

Summary: Atsushi sputtered, eyes widened and cheeks red. Ryuu could practically watch his brain malfunctioning at the nickname. Since he was still wearing his shirt, he summoned a few tendrils of Rashoumon and had them wrap loosely around Atsushi’s wrists.
“Can you keep them there for me, sweetie?” he smiled. “I need the use of both my hands to worship you.”
Atsushi simply nodded, tugging lightly at the restraints to test their give. He could have easily ripped through them, but Ryuu knew that he liked the resistance and needed the reminder. He tended to have trouble keeping his hands off of Ryuu, and though Ryuu preened at being so irresistible, sometimes he really did like his dessert to sit quietly.

Just, plain, white, nothing at all.

He blinked. He could hear things. People. Machines. Whirring and talking.

electric by quitepossiblyjanuary

Summary: They're always a little sloppy, but it's one of Atsushi's favorite parts about them, that messiness. He loves the feeling of Akutagawa's nose squished up against his face, changing every few minutes because Akutagawa likes to tilt his head this way and that, testing which angle is best for sliding his tongue against Atsushi's lips. He loves the feeling of Akutagawa's lips slipping and catching on his chin, his cheeks, as they blindly move their mouths against each other, eyes closed and too happy to care about neatness.

Writer's Guide

Headcanon : Where their Crime Writer! S/O asks a question ft Akutagawa, Atsushi, Ango Masterlist Please look at the request rules in masterlist before requesting.

Akutagawa:

I still question how you made him like you back

All it took you to ask him and this babygirl experimented it.

"Hey Akutagawa Do you think if a body is fed to the dogs, there are any remains?....Where are you going......And he left"

Babygirl comes back and tells you one thing : "Yes"

LIKE OMG BRO WHAT DID YOU DO?

Nevertheless you still love him

He just assures you that your writings are accurate like his love. even if it means he will experiment it

Atsushi:

Ah yes, the joyful couple

He was surprised to find your interest in writing :0

Honestly I am pretty sure he will get concerned most of the time when you ask him stuff

"Aye Shushi, Do you think if someone buries a body in the graveyard, he can get away with the crime?" "Y/N I love you but are you okay?"

Bro loves you no matter what.

Ofcourse he wouldnt start killing people for you like akutagawa but he will give you advice once in a while on your writing style

"Atsushi If I-" "Y/N sleep its 3 am in the morning"

you scare him sometimes but he still loves you <3

Ango:

Bro look, he is a government agent and you are a crime writer

Imagine the looks people will give him if they find out about your questions

"Hey Ango, if you inject someone with air in their bloodstream how much does it take to make it look like a fake heart attack?"

"Y/N sometimes I wonder why did I bother interacting with you?" "But you still love me darling....please answer me" insert cringe wink

He actually take this relationship as taking care of a baby rather then an adult. But hey, least your his baby (umm bro you have rizz?)

Idk bro he is just fed up sometimes but nevertheless gives you tips from his experience

Look y'all better appreciate this because I am sacrificing sleep to complete my pending drafts.

A/N: Hello hello! Back again with another one, thank you so much for requesting this and I hope its to your liking! Feel free to request again, its so much fun writing about them hihi- Anyways enjoy!

Dazai Osamu:

They will be a menace together if not absolute hell.

You think kunikida could survive one? barely, but two? Oh my lord pray to the lords and especially for the soul of kunikida- 💀

Man has to fight for his life to get to live

Him and his wan would prank so many people, and now since their together, they will be searching for this beautiful to commit with

however this little wan is a living reminder of the hell he actually went through.

He does also however have someone who understands him completely, cause well, its him-

They both ramble how much they love hate Chuuya-

This crazy ball of energy, but the good kind.

Atsushi Nakajima:

Oh they would both be so sweet against each other and others-

They would, just like dazai, talk about how much they Hate love Akutagawa, but in all honesty I see them vent against each other cause they understand each other the best

Atsushi would honestly be like '🥹' when seeing wan!atsushi's tiger form

its just like a little cat he can't resist to pick him up and carry him around-

He would team up with himself, just because the president ordered him too one day and that just became a normal thing

They would hate and love each other, since they share the same mindset

Akutagawa ryunosuke:

Hates him for some reason-

I mean of course cause he doesn't really like himself but seeing his wan like this, especially how he interacts with Atsushi's? He damn jealous for sure

not in the ship way, just the way that he's jealous of the wan!aku for having such a casual life.

They would however bond by drinking like tea together-? I don't know I see aku as a tea person 😭

They both would talk about their devotion towards Dazai, and shit talk about Atsushi cause why the fuck not-

They would really be rivals against each other.

Chuuya Nakahara:

DOG MOVIES DOG MOVIES!

they would watch those sad mf dog movies together, that in all honesty are so sappy compared to the Chuuya himself

drinking contest just because I said so

I bet he has like this photo of dazai, and they take turns throwing darts at his face cause they think their hilarious as hell-

The drunk gingers will angry rant about dazai and like 50 ways to beat him up, Chuuya may or may not broken a glass-

When their with Dazai's? run for your goddamn life.

they be throwing themselves at him and not in that way you horny bastards I see you guys-

They be throwing hands fr

Takes a lot of effort to just get them off each other

BSD Men After Their GF Clogs Their Toilet and Cries about it

This is not inspired by a real event, but also it kind of is. Don't judge me I'm already writing this.

Kicks you out, vomits because he knows that it's impossible for women to take shits. What he saw in there wasn't possible, it had to be an attempt to kill him

-Jouno, Fyodor, Akutugawa

Get's you medication because that was the birth of the anti-christ straight through the ass, and clearly you needed pain meds or something. He doesn't know, he didn't know a shit that big was even humanly possible

-Tecchou, Fukuzawa, Sigma

"Hey. It's fine. We all do it. I'll call a plumber." He doesn't want to admit it, since you're crying from embarrassment, but he's impressed. He sent a photo to all of his friends and is going to print it and hang it on the wall to commemorate the date.

-Chuuya, Kunikida, Atsushi

"Damn girl, you shit here often?"

-Ranpo, Kaiji, Dazai

"You should put this in the book of world records. It's kind of cool."

-Tachihara, Mark Twain, Tanizaki

Doesn't even notice until the next day. Somehow, he just doesn't notice it, and you become actually concerned over the fact that he has a clogged toilet that he passes multiple times and doesn't notice. He never says anything either - you assume he's just being polite, but it remains there when you come over the next time, making you question his sanity.
