[whorefordazai]

sleepy cuddles

ft. chuuya | dazai | gin | fyodor x gn! reader

genre: fluff, comfort

warnings: none

Chuuya

very clingy when he’s cuddling you.

he’ll be the big spoon 80% of the time. he likes having his arms around your waist, back pressed against his chest, and hips pressed on him. if he gets comfortable in that position, and you attempt to move around—give up 😊 cuz he’ll definitely firmly hold you back and mutter a soft “you’re not getting up yet.”

he loooves burying his face in your neck when he’s the big spoon. he’ll press soft kisses on the back of your neck. expect him saying a lot of “mhm, you smell good. did you use my body wash?” or “I could kiss you here for the rest of my life.”

If he sees you tense up or blush, he’ll hug you tighter and chuckle onto your skin.

yes, chuuya can be forward and not a little blush boy sometimes too 🙄

he really enjoys it when you play with his hair. I mean like, he literally melts under your touch.

he’ll sit between your legs, with his back leaned against your chest and be like “play with my hair ( ･_･)♡”

as you start to weave your fingers through his red locks, he’ll be two seconds away from falling asleep cuz he can’t hold his head up anymore. so his head will fall to the crook of your neck...and for a few seconds it’ll be quiet with just him snoozing on your chest.

he looks so innocent and peaceful with his bangs curling around his face and the soft snores coming from his mouth. his chest will slowly rise and fall and he’ll subconsciously squeeze your hand in his sleep like a new born baby *cries*

but he’ll suddenly shoot his head up, all disoriented like “NOT SLEEPING. I WAS NOT SLEEPING🧍‍♂️”

when he sees you just staring at him blinking in surprise—he’ll just grumble, roll his eyes, grab your face to place a huge kiss on your lips and then basically dive back into your arms, trapping you under him ♿️♿️♿️

Dazai

he’s on top of you. that’s it. that’s the headcannon.

dazai isn’t really clingy per say, when you both are cuddling before bed—it’s more like lazy cuddles. his limbs will be tangled with yours under the sheet, his arm lazily wrapped around your waist.

one of his legs will be wrapped over your body, keeping you closer to him. but this man does not sleep LMAO so instead, he plays footsie with you.

“dazai.”

“yes?”

“that tickles ಠ_ಠ”

“but I just wanted to play footsie with my cutesy little honey bunny 😔💔”

he’s using cringy pet names to woo you ☺️

he kinda doesn’t stop talking 😗—it’s not constant chatter, it’s more like he mumbles a few sentences in your ear every ten minutes.

“I think I left the kitchen light on.”

“I ran out of bandages.”

“I borrowed the rest of your bubble bath soap. and by borrowed, I mean I used half the bottle.”

“you’re so cute I could sacrifice you to satan.”

he likes feeling safe in your arms, so he’ll be the little spoon more than the big spoon. he only sleeps for a few hours, so he’ll just pull you close to him and lay his head on your chest, wrapping his arms around your waist. that way, he can hear your heartbeat.

don’t be fooled—once you guys are in deep sleep, the positions you’re in change drastically. either he’s sprawled out like a starfish and stealing the blanket to his side, or you’re head in on his stomach, being suffocated with his arm.

somehow, you both make it out alive to see the daylight. good job soldier 👊

if he’s laying on your chest and facing you, he’ll put both his hands on your cheeks and literally attack you with kisses. “Dazai” you’d manage to say between his lips on yours.

“Hm?”

“I might faint from oxygen deprivation if you keep this up.”

“REALLY?? what a wonderful way to die! kissing until we both run out of oxygen! let us do more of that then 👹!!”

careful, you just ignited a new hunger in him.

he actually loves laying on your stomach with his head on your chest and arms circled around your waist. definitely while you play with his hair. he considers it his prize for the day.

his face will be rested in the crook of your neck, and soon he’ll fall asleep from the comfort of your fingers running through his hair. aAA 😖 just imagine Dazai’s peaceful face and his soft breaths against your skin while he snoozes away 😶

Gin

little spoon on a good day <3

she’ll either lay in bed with you or rest her head on your chest with her arms circled around your waist. similar to dazai, one of her legs will be between yours with her chest pressed against your back. 

she’s an assassin, but she lefts off her guard when she’s with you—so once she falls asleep, expect her to be in various weird positions.

ah, the classic patrick the star, and then we have falling off the bed 😎

I think you’ll often wake up during ungodly hours of the night and see half her body falling off the bed with her ass in the air.

don’t make a big deal about it—just get used to it 🥲

simply just carefully yank her back into your arms, and you’ll see her snuggle up closer to your chest (completely unbothered by the fact that she almost suffocated herself with her own arm)

of course she’ll let you be the little spoon. that includes her just softly rubbing soft circles on your back while holding you in her arms.

Fyodor

this man is extremely touch deprived and sleep deprived.

he actually just enjoys being the big spoon—pulling you close to his chest while the both of you are facing each other. one arm wrapped around your waist while the other softly caresses your back.

he especially likes keeping his face near your hair just because he enjoys the smell of your shampoo.

does the hat stay on while he sleeps? possibly sometimes, yes 🙂 so please take it off him once he falls asleep. or else his hair will get matted and have knots that he’ll refuse to brush in the morning.

he likes to be sneaky and lightly grope you, but that’s only because he wants to see a reaction that’ll feed his ego 💃

fyodor likes having your head rested on his chest. he doesn’t fall asleep that quickly, so when you’re the one to be snoozing off first—he’ll just enjoy the peaceful silence and the sight of you clinging onto him.

[musicprincess655]

Dazai and Chuuya are, as it turns out, less than pleased to wake up to find a plot to infiltrate the Correctional Facility brewing right under their noses. Chuuya yells at them all about trying to get themselves killed for almost an hour while Dazai sits stone faced behind him. Atsushi feels a little bad that Gin gets included in this, because she didn’t know anything. He and Akutagawa both kept their plans from her.

Then, when Chuuya is done yelling, Dazai steps forward to offer his plan.

“There’s someone we need to talk to first,” he says. “Someone who knows more about No. 6 than the rest of us combined.”

“You’re finally involving him?” Chuuya asks. “Aren’t you the one who keeps saying we should leave him alone?”

“Suicide missions are special circumstances,” Dazai says. “Much as I can’t wait to go out in a blaze of glory, I do want it to be effective.”

“Who are we talking about?” Atsushi asks. He looks to Akutagawa, but Akutagawa shrugs.

“Someone I’ve known a very long time,” Dazai says. “Someone who deserves to live in peace, after everything he’s done for me.”

“Quit being cryptic,” Chuuya complains. “We’re going to see Oda.”

That doesn’t do anything to clear up Atsushi’s confusion, and by the looks on Akutagawa and Gin’s faces, they don’t know any more than him. Dazai and Chuuya don’t seem inclined to tell them anything more, so instead, Atsushi and the Akutagawa siblings follow them out the door.

“See?” Akutagawa says softly at Atsushi’s side, quiet enough to escape everyone else’s notice. “Everyone is so ready to help you. Don’t go charging in by yourself.”

“You were going to do the same thing,” Atsushi says. “And you lied too. You’re no better than me.”

“I was trying to help,” Akutagawa says. “Aren’t you the one who’s all big on helping others?”

“I never asked you to die for me,” Atsushi says. “I don’t want you to die for me.”

“Fine,” Akutagawa growls. “No more lies. No more goodbye kisses.”

“Done.”

Atsushi feels a little bad about that one, too. He’d gotten caught up in the moment, thinking it was the last time he’d be close to Akutagawa, and all his thoughts about his feelings had still been bubbling right under the surface, and he’d acted without thinking. He hadn’t even considered Akutagawa’s feelings on it, and he’d honestly expected Akutagawa to punch him for the kiss. That he’d let Atsushi do it, that he hadn’t retaliated, that now, he’s asking for Atsushi to never kiss him for a reason like that again, means that Atsushi has very seriously misjudged what Akutagawa might feel.

And that, surprisingly enough, is something he feels guilty about. He’s never had an issue using Akutagawa’s feelings to get him to do things before. This is different, though. Atsushi hadn’t really meant the kiss as a manipulation. He’d just wanted one, and it had been for all the wrong reasons. Of course Akutagawa wouldn’t want another like that.

Dazai leads them to a small, nondescript house in the middle of the West Block. It’s a little rundown, just like everything else in the area, but there’s nothing special about it. Atsushi could have passed it a thousand times without thinking anything of it.

Dazai knocks on the door, and a young woman answers, a little younger than Atsushi.

“Dazai-san!” she cheers. “Odasaku, Dazai-san’s here!”

“Can we come in, Sakura-chan?” Dazai asks. He’s much gentler with her than he is with other people. Atsushi’s curiosity rages. Who are these people, and what are they to Dazai?

“Who are they?” Sakura asks, stepping aside to let them enter.

“You remember Chuuya, don’t you?” Dazai asks. “He hasn’t grown any taller, after all.”

“Dazai!”

“Not the time,” Gin interrupts.

“I remember him,” Sakura says. “Who are they?”

“You know how Odasaku takes care of the five of you?” Dazai asks. “Chuuya and I look after the three of them.”

“Five?” Gin asks Chuuya quietly.

“Oda is a saint of a man,” Chuuya says. “He adopts orphans.”

“You took care of us.”

“You and your brother barely count. You basically adopted us right back.”

“What are we doing here?” Atsushi asks. “Who is Oda?”

“Dazai-kun, Chuuya-kun,” a voice enters the room, so much deeper than Sakura’s. “And you’ve brought your kids.”

“We’re all adults,” Akutagawa grumbles. Atsushi ignores him, trying to place the source of the voice.

An older man in a wheelchair looks at them curiously, eyes a strange rusty color.

“Odasaku, this is Gin, Ryuunosuke, and Atsushi,” Dazai says. “You three, this is Odasaku. He helped build No. 6.”

“Proof that we can’t all be perfect,” Oda says. “It’s good to finally meet you all. Well, good to meet Ryuu-kun and Atsushi-kun. It’s nice to see Gin-chan again.”

“We’ve met?” Gin asks.

“You were much smaller,” Oda says. “These two tried to pass you off to me. Something about them being too young to look after a child.”

“We were both nineteen at the time,” Chuuya says. “You already had all five of yours.”

“Prime reason for why I didn’t have room for another,” Oda says. “But I’m guessing you’re not here to catch up.”

“I’m sorry,” Atsushi cuts into the reunion. “You helped build No. 6?”

Akutagawa is tense by his side, and Atsushi half expects to have to stop him from leaping forward and beating Oda to death with his fists. Atsushi can’t let that fight happen. Oda is in a wheelchair, after all.

“I think we might have a lot to talk about,” Oda says. “Sakura-chan, would you mind making some tea?”

As she leaves, disappearing through a door into the house, Oda gestures for them all to sit. Atsushi ends up on the couch between Akutagawa and Gin, while Chuuya sits in an armchair and Dazai perches next to him on the arm.

“Now, Atsushi-kun, was it?” Oda asks. “Does that scar go all the way down?”

Atsushi brushes a reflexive hand under his eye. Nobody he spends time around pays the scar any attention anymore, used to it in his appearance. At Dazai’s encouraging nod, Atsushi unbuttons his shirt enough to show Oda where the scar cuts across his stomach.

“A parasitic wasp,” Oda says. “Never thought I’d see another survivor.”

“You know about the parasitic wasps?” Atsushi asks. Then, “there are more people like me?”

“Tell me everything you know,” Oda says. “From the beginning.”

So Atsushi does. He tells Oda of the corpse he investigated when he was still in No. 6, his suspicions about what causes the mysterious deaths, how the Akutagawa siblings saved him from No. 6, how he came to live in the West Block, his current mission to save Lucy. All the while, he can barely hold back questions of his own. He’s been looking, ever since he left No. 6, ever since the consequences no longer mattered, for the answers to the biggest lies. Oda, if he really did help build No. 6, should know more than anyone what those answers are.

Atsushi fully intends to interrogate Oda as soon as he finishes his story, but before he can say anything, twin cries of pain cut him off.

Both Gin and Akutagawa are doubled over in pain, clutching at their heads. Atsushi reaches for one and then the other, trying to help, trying to see what’s wrong. They weren’t attacked, and there’s no reason for something to only affect the two of them.

At his touch, both of them curl into them. Gin tries to worm between his body and the back of the couch, as if perhaps he can shield her from whatever is happening. Akutagawa buries his face in Atsushi’s shoulder, like he can block out this attack like the light.

“What’s happening?” Atsushi begs.

Chuuya is suddenly there, pulling Gin away from Atsushi, trying to get her to open her eyes and answer the same question. Atsushi turns his attention back to Akutagawa, who is slowly opening his eyes, panting, still wincing.

“There’s that damn song again,” he grumbles.

“What song?” Atsushi asks.

“You can hear it too?” Gin asks. She’s pulled her face mask down, and her hair has fallen around her face from where she clutched at it. “I thought it was just a dream.”

“I used to sing it to myself in the Correctional Facility, but I thought I forgot it,” Akutagawa says. “I keep having dreams about it, though.”

“Could you sing it now?” Oda asks. Atsushi expects both of them to refuse, but instead, they glance at each other and break into song.

Atsushi knows from Kyouka that they seem like different people when they sing, but he’s never seen it until now, and hadn’t truly appreciated what Kyouka meant. Their voices weave together in tight harmony, not at all how he would have expected either of them to sound, singing a song about humans stealing hearts, about the forces of nature embracing them and returning to them, about laying down to rest. Atsushi feels an unexpected peace steal over his heart. The light almost seems to shine brighter around them, dust motes floating through the air like shimmering gold, and the effect fades as soon as the siblings stop singing, collapsing once more into Atsushi’s sides.

It’s beautiful in a way that Atsushi isn’t sure he’s meant to touch.

“I never thought I’d meet someone who can sing that song again,” Oda says. “And now there’s two of you. No wonder No. 6 wanted you.”

“Wanted them for what?” Atsushi demands. “Who are you, really, and what do you know? Why did No. 6 want them? What does No. 6 want?”

Oda sits back in his chair with a sad smile.

“When we first started to build No. 6, this isn’t what any of us planned,” he says. “It was supposed to be a chance to start over. War and natural disaster ruined most of the planet, wiped out most of the population, but the last of the inhabitable land, the last of the people, we were meant to be brought together by tragedy. We were all full of passion, full of ideas of a perfect city without poverty or discrimination.”

“That worked out real well for you, didn’t it?” Akutagawa scoffs. Atsushi nudges his shoulder, eyes fixed on Oda.

“As with most things, a few people ruined it for everyone,” Oda says. “A few elites got the idea that they deserved more privileges, and they cut down anyone who stood against them. They turned No. 6 into the monster it is now. A beast surrounded by walls.”

“And what were you doing?” Atsushi asks. “With that monster you helped create?”

“I worked in a group that scouted the areas outside the walls,” Oda says. “We were supposed to see what land could be made habitable, and we were gone for months at a time. I didn’t see any of this until it was too late. I was too obsessed with my work, and with Elyurias.”

“Elyurias?”

Atsushi doesn’t miss the way both Akutagawa and Gin tense beside him.

“She’s something like a god,” Oda says. “She has power humans don’t, and she lives in the forests outside of No. 6. When I first met her, I couldn’t look away. I thought I could see in her a way to chase the vision I had for No. 6. With her power, the perfect world could be possible.”

“And that’s not what ended up happening, is it?” Atsushi asks. Oda shakes his head.

“I submitted my report to the higher ups,” he says. “I got chased out here for my troubles. The West Block didn’t exist yet. It was considered uninhabitable land, back then. But other people were driven out with me, and it didn’t take long for us to find a way to live.”

“And your higher ups took that report and burned our home to the ground,” Akutagawa says.

“Yes,” Oda confirms. “That was…almost fourteen years ago, now. You would have been, what?”

“Seven,” Akutagawa says. “Gin was five. We were lucky to escape with our lives.”

“You lived where Elyurias lived?” Atsushi asks.

“These two are the last survivors of the Forest Folk,” Oda says. “They protected Elyurias with their lives. So No. 6 took those away.”

Here is the answer to the question neither Atsushi nor Dazai was able to answer. It wasn’t that the village was a threat to No. 6. They had something No. 6 wanted. They had Elyurias, and when they wouldn’t give her up, No. 6 destroyed them.

Atsushi tightens his arms around Akutagawa and Gin’s shoulders.

“Here’s what I don’t understand,” Akutagawa says. “Neither of us remember our lives there. I don’t know Elyurias. I’ve never spoken to her.”

“What do you think that song is?” Oda asks. “Among the Forest Folk, there were some people who could speak to Elyurias. They were called Singers. That song you hear is her reaching out to you. Beckoning you.”

“Beckoning where?”

“That, I don’t know.” Oda sighs. “I was never truly a scientist. I was just supposed to find a new place for people to live. I don’t have the answers you want. And I can’t help you get into the Correctional Facility. Even if I did know anything about it, my information would be years out of date.”

“This is still more than we knew before,” Dazai says. “We know what No. 6 wants now. That’s a big one.”

“They’re experimenting on their own citizens again,” Oda says. “Or at least, they never stopped what they started when I was still there. They wanted to find a host for Elyurias, one they could control. That might be what your friend Lucy is caught up in.”

“Then they won’t kill her?” Atsushi asks.

“No, but she might wish they had,” Chuuya says darkly. “If that’s all you can tell us, we should get going. We don’t want to bother you for too long.”

“You’re always welcome here, Chuuya-kun,” Oda says. “You can always come along when Dazai-kun visits.”

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

Atsushi has plenty to turn over in his mind as they walk back to the bunker. The origins of No. 6, the village where Akutagawa and Gin grew up, Elyurias. The relationship Dazai, Chuuya, and Oda have is something that can wait for later examination.

Atsushi is so wrapped up in his thoughts that he doesn’t even realize someone is in the bunker when they return until Akutagawa stops dead beside him.

Kyouka stands placidly inside the room, a woman Atsushi doesn’t recognize sitting beside her.

“Ane-san?” Chuuya asks. “What are you doing here?”

“If it’s a request from Kyouka-chan, how can I refuse?” the woman replies. Ane-san, Chuuya called her. That must make this woman Kouyou.

“The information you asked for isn’t something I can get on my own,” Kyouka tells Akutagawa. “She agreed to help.”

“We have an idea for getting the information you need,” Kouyou says. “But I doubt anyone here will like it.”

Atsushi, Akutagawa, and Gin sit on the couch, Dazai and Chuuya taking the spare chair. Chuuya leans forward.

“What’s the idea?”

[fy-soukoku]

Random Soukoku prompt: Holding hands under the table ♡

The first time it happens, he can’t stop shaking.

The first meeting Chuuya has been in since using Corruption for the first time, since he rose in the sky and tore his enemies apart limb by limb. Mori is congratulating the mafia on the discovery of a new, valuable weapon for their organization, while Kouyou watches with a piercing gaze, rubbing her hand over her protege’s back.

Dazai tries to focus on the meeting, but all he can see in the corner of his eyes is the shaking form of Chuuya, so delicate and breakable even though he is still streaked with blood. But what really catches his attention are his eyes - glassy, soft, framed by dark red lashes. Dazai knows that Chuuya had a very different future ahead of him before his abilities were discovered - but of course, what other future would there be for a boy with such a pretty face and those gentle blue eyes? He wasn’t cut out for this life, Dazai knew that too well. He was too soft, too kind, too gentle to handle a life that would paint his fingers black, stain them with crimson blood that got stuck in your clothes no matter how much bleach you rubbed on them. (And Dazai had tried, but at this point it was in his veins.)

Kouyou’s hand stops massaging his back in careful motions when Mori makes the suggestion that Chuuya officially join the Mafia. She rises, a wave of fury emitting from every pore, and protests against it, claiming that he’s too young to be exposed to such violence.

“He did just create that violence.” Dazai points out, and finds himself under the woman’s scrutinizing gaze. Next to him, Chuuya grabs her by the sleeve, tugging with pale fingers that shine against the pink of her kimono.

“Please, nee-san.” He says, “It’s a better future than I had planned.”

Kouyou’s eyes soften at the boy’s words, and she lets herself sit, gesturing at Mori to continue.

Dazai watches Chuuya from the corner of his eye. He’s watching the interaction, but not adding anything. Observing, absorbing, studying. His blue eyes flit to every new source of sound, as if terrified to miss anything.

He’s smarter than I thought, Dazai thinks. He knows pitching in will do no good.

Not for the first time, Dazai wonders where this kid came from.

What does worry him, however, is that Chuuya continues to pick at his fingernails. They’re well-trimmed, as Kouyou has probably ensured, and filed to an appropriate length. But there’s the dark traces of dried blood glued to the bottom, which Chuuya continues to pick at, scratching the surface of his skin with such ferocity that it’s sure to begin bleeding again. Dazai reaches forward, and grabs his hand, yanking it down, under the table. He doesn’t know why, but the idea of Chuuya being in more pain makes him uncomfortable.

“You’ll hurt yourself more.” He murmurs in explanation, though he does allow Chuuya to turn his palm up and press the pad of their hands together.

Gradually, Chuuya relaxes.

—-

While Dazai has his own talents, things that make him irreplaceable within the dynamics of the Port Mafia, it’s fairly obvious that fighting is not his strong suit.

With a quick mind, a silver tongue, and well-developed reflexes, Dazai tends to avoid conflicts. It’s easier that way, he has found, than doing something as pointless as throwing fists to see who went the hardest. There were other people to do that. Besides, nobody looked good smashing someone’s face into a wall.

Except Chuuya apparently.

Dazai wasn’t expecting the delicate redhead with baby doll eyes to be able to smash someone’s skull in without his ability, but even at sixteen, Chuuya is proving to be one of the best martial artists in the Mafia.

He looks born for it - sculpted from clay and forged in fires to fight. When he lands a kick, there’s a dangerous flickering in his eyes, a spark of pride that lights up the whole room. When he knocks someone to the ground his lips curl up in a satisfied smile, pressing the heel of his boot to their neck.

Dazai walks out into the training room, where Tachihara is gripping his side and grimacing. Chuuya leans down, splays out a hand for him to hold.

“Sorry. I should have been more gentle.” Chuuya smiles, and Tachihara’s hazel eyes soften, a glint in his eyes showing his affection all too clear. Either Chuuya is more oblivious than Dazai thought, or he’s just that concerned about other people’s feelings, because he seems to take Tachihara’s lingering gaze as a symbol of friendship.

“Can I talk to Chuuya, Tachihara-kun?” Dazai flashes the redhead a smile as he stabilizes his stance, watches his eyes widen in fear.

“O-of course!” Tachihara nodded, and bowed to Chuuya. “Thank you for sparring with me , Chuuya-san!”

“Absolutely!” Chuuya responds, and watches the boy run out the door. He turns back to watch Dazai. “What did you need?”

His gaze is too trusting, it almost worries Dazai. He’s fairly certain Chuuya is the only member of the Mafia who looks at him like that, with no sign of hesitancy or distrust. Dazai reckons that he could ask Chuuya to jump off a cliff and the boy would do so. (Though his ability would probably prevent anything awful from happening.) Which simultaneously thrills and frustrates him.

“Fight me.” Dazai says, grinning.

“What?”

He tips his head, holds his hands out. “Fight me, Chuuya. I want first-hand experience of your legendary strength.” He drags out the syllables of the words, taunting him.

“Alright, but I’m not going easy on you.” Chuuya says, and throws the first punch.

Dazai steps to the side, watches Chuuya stumble past him. His hair falls in his eyes, he stares down at his fist, his eyes wide with shock.

“That was fast.” Chuuya mutters. “Very fast.”

“I’ve been watching you.” Dazai smirks. “I’ve been studying your fighting style. You’re very talented.”

Chuuya glares at him, “Are you mocking me?”

“Not at all.” Dazai says, reaching over and winding a strand of Chuuya’s hair around his finger.

“So, what, you wanted to see if you could dodge me.”

Dazai grins. His hand falls onto the dip of Chuuya’s collarbone, traces the shape with feathery touches. Chuuya reaches up, slides his hand to press against Dazai’s palm. His skin is sweaty from training all day, but Dazai can already feel callouses building up along his fingers, rough but soothing against his own.

Dazai squeezes his hand. “Sometimes I wonder if you can just read my mind.”

Chuuya shrugs. “Or maybe I just know you.”

They stand there, under dim lights, sweaty hands pressed against one another, and Dazai’s heart hammers because it’s true. And that’s a little terrifying.

—-

Their very first mission together ends with Chuuya curled on the road, arms around his knees, blood matting his hair to the side of his face.

Dazai steps among the rubble, tries not to watch Chuuya’s shaking form too carefully. He curls his hands into fists and sniffs at the subtle smoke that soaks in the air.

“Are you ready to go?” He asks. Chuuya sniffs, glares up at him, his cheeks covered in a trail of tears, his eyes pink from the smoke around them.

“Am I…” He shakes his head, rests his forehead in his hands. “I don’t know. Okay. I just killed people, Dazai. I just lost control and there was nothing I could do.”

Dazai nods. “Your ability will take some time getting used to-”

“What the hell do you mean by that!” Chuuya springs up, stumbling as he approaches Dazai. “I thought I told you that if it looked like I was going to kill somebody, than that you should stop me!”

Dazai crosses his arms. “Chuuya, we’re part of the Port Mafia. We kill. It’s our job.”

Chuuya stares at the dark gray gravel, where lines of rain seep into the cracks. His eyes are darker than usual, reflecting the cloudy sky.

“I can’t… I can’t kill people, Dazai.” Chuuya whispers at the ground, as if the worms will be able to hear and sympathize. “It… hurts when I do.”

Dazai doesn’t feel any empathy for him. He’s been killing since the tender age of nine, taught that in this world, it’s kill or be killed. Ending a life was as simple as snuffing out an unnecessary flame.

But this is hard for Chuuya, he thinks, as he watches the fragility of his pretty blue eyes glisten in the light. They could shatter and break - even though the holder is so fierce, so strong.

He reaches out his hand, and folds their fingers against each other. Chuuya freezes up.

“I know, Chuuya.” He murmurs, and runs his thumb over his cheek.

—-

They’re laying in bed, the moonlight is folding like origami on the ceiling, and Dazai can’t take his eyes off of Chuuya.

The redhead is angelic with his eyes closed, head tilted back against the clean pillow case. His hair is like a splatter of vibrant paint over white canvas. Dazai almost wants to wake him up to see the shiny sapphire blue of his eyes, but he also knows that Chuuya hasn’t been sleeping much.

Chuuya is curled up on his side, gauzy white button-up slung loosely over his frame. It’s on of Dazai’s, and the thought of Chuuya in his clothing sharpens a protective instinct he hadn’t known existed. And, with the redhead curled up in ball, his tiny nose crinkling as he dreams, Dazai feels more protective than ever - even in sleep, Chuuya is still pure.

Chuuya is pure in general, he thinks, remembering his idealistic views and his soft smiles to subordinates. He’s the kind of guy who helps old women across the street, and brings bowls of soup to the orphans who live along the streets. He’s the kind of guy who cries when someone innocent is murdered, but will not hesitate to snap the neck of anyone who hurts his family.

Dazai has never really felt these things. Old women don’t need his help, subordinates should be run by fear, and anyone who died brought it upon themselves. He thinks it’s the way Mori raised him. Maybe he’d be different if someone else had been in charge of him.

Either way, Chuuya looks like an angel right now, and Dazai can’t look away. He sometimes wonders if the heavens will realize they’ve accidentally cast such an amazing being into this world, and maybe one day they’ll take him away. Away from the filthy world. Away from Dazai.

He sighs, and reaches out a hand to fold around the limp arm laying by Chuuya’s side.

Clutching his hand, he vows to enjoy the time he has.

I’VE BEEN WRITING THIS FOR A WEEK AND I HATE IT BUT OH WELL I’M TIRED 

[dontdropthattuturu]

Blossom of trust: a soukoku tale

For soukoku week day 2 prompt: That's what being a partner is right? Summary: Chuuyas first Mission with Dazai and his first Time using Corruption Warnings: Swearing, Violence? It was Chuuyas first mission with Dazai as his partner and it went to hell reeeeally fast. Like they were twenty minutes into the mission and all their subordinates where either dead or gravely injured to top that off they were scrunched behind some made shift barricade. Chuuya was so fucking pissed he seriously considered letting the mission go to hell, in favor of strangling Dazai to death, but the suicide freak would probably be happy about that. He glared over at his partner, who just threw a sinister smirk at him. Even over the shelling from the group they were supposed to obliterate he could hear his own teeth grinding. “ Shitty Dazai! Would you do something already?” Dazai just smiled darkly at him: “My, my Chuuya why don´t you just kill them with your mighty ability?”. His cold voice was laced with deep-seated dislike and dripped sarcasm like poison. Involuntarily the redhead shuddered and thought back to all the horror stories other members whispered about the Demon protigee. Still, Chuuya was pissed. He clenched his teeth and hissed: “ Fuck you Dazai.”, barely holding in his anger. The brunet just sneered at him and said with his usual emotionless voice: “Is this really all you could come up with? How boring.” Before Chuuya could react to this comment their make shift barricade crumbled under the enemies attack, he leapt away from the rubble and spotted Dazai jumping into the opposite direction shooting down enemies with a bored expression. Chuuya tsked angrily and stopped the bullets the enemies were shooting mid air. They continued this brutal battle until they were both covered in blood and gore but the enemies kept coming. Slowly the battle started to tier them out. Chuuya started breathing hard, having his ability activated for so long made him distracted. Suddenly he felt a pang of pain in his arm. He grunted, he hadn´t seen one of the bullets headed his way. Chuuyas eyes widen in panic as he feels his ability slipping away. Desperately he looks over to Dazai and sees him near one of he side exits of the building. “ He´s leaving me?”, Chuuya couldn´t believe it he knew that he and Dazai didn´t get along but he hadn´t thought Dazai would go this far. He would die here. He knew it. Still, still something in Chuuya refused to die when his enemies were still standing, when they could still kill the few subordinates he had left, even when gravely injured. As if in trance Chuuya murmurs: “ Oh, grantors of dark disgrace do not wake me again.” The red head feels as if he was pushed out of his body, so that something else could take over. He spirals down into a world that seems to be made solely out of pain, grief, anger and darkness. With all his left strength he tries to fight these feelings but in the end they swallow him whole and he can only scream inaudible in agony as he curls himself up in this storm of feelings.     At the other side of the room brown emotionless eyes observe everything. At first Dazai had been amused by Chuuyas struggle but this was actually interesting. The brunet blinks surprised when Chuuya stands up and all the bullets flying towards him just stop and turn by 180 degree, so they aim at their enemies instead. His now quite intrigued stare doesn´t follow the bullets, now flying again, hitting their new targets but instead notice the strange red marks appearing on Chuuyas skin, his wide eyes and maniac smile. For a short while he watches amazed how Chuuya annihilates their enemies. Tearing them apart, limps laying everywhere and Chuuya covered red in the blood of his enemies. Sadly Dazai noticed some mildly annoying complications such as Chuuya starting to bleed from his eyes, ears, nose and mouth, the black matter that crept up his arms as well as his incapability to walk any more. Suddenly a new sound reaches his ears, Dazai blocked every other sound out and fully concentrated on this new melody telling a tale of malice and insanity. A solid minute passed before Dazai snapped out of his trance and registered that this sound was laughter, laughter coming from Cuuya. The pretty redheads face was frighteningly contorted, a crazy grin splitting his face. The inhuman laughter continued, with every passing second Dazai got more and more anxious. He had realized that Chuuya couldn´t control his ability and furthermore that this was killing Chuuya. The brunet knew he had to act but the question was how the hell should he get near Chuuya without getting hit by one of his black holes. Anxiously he bit his lip as he reached the conclusion to just charge in since everyone of his possible plans needed more time than Chuuya had. “Desperate times call for desperate measurements “, Dazai muses as he charges at Chuuya. Luckily Chuuya reacts a millisecond to late and just as he wants to pound one of his black holes in Dazai a warm hand sneaks around Chuuyas wrist.   Too Chuuya it feels as if someone reached down inside this prison of emotions he was caged in while his body became corrupted and pulled him out until he felt himself return to his own body. His eyes flutter open and he looks directly at Dazai, who stares at him worriedly. Exhausted the smaller one notices that he is cradled in Dazais arms but he feels to weak to fight against it, so instead he leans into Dazai breathing his name as he slips off into sleep.   Dazai is worried. One last time he checks Chuuyas pulse, it´s weak but definitely there. He had already contacted the Port mafia and an ambulance was on the way to them so that Chuuya could be treated. The brunet busied himself by cleaning Chuuya up as good as he could but at last the ambulance arrived. For the whole ride to the hospital Dazai was cramped in a corner while the staff of the ambulance fussed over Chuuya. As soon as they reached the hospitel they got separated, while Chuuya was rolled off to surgeryto treat his internal damage Dazais own wounds were attended too by one of the doctors. Thereafter Dazai had to rest for some time but as soon as he was able to he sneaked off to Chuuyas room. He hummed happily as he saw that the shorter male already came out of surgery and now lay in bed peacefully even though for once Chuuya was wrapped in more bandages than Dazai. The next few days Dazai stayed at Chuuyas side and refused too move. This went so far, that the staff of the hospital even had too move a bed beside Chuuyas so that Dazai wouldn´t solely sleep in the uncomfortable chair beside Chuuya.   For days now Chuuya had been drifting in and out of consciousness, on some level aware of the never changing presence from another person. His eyelids flutter open and he sees Dazai sitting next to him. The brunet gives him a gentle, sincere smile when he meets Chhuuyas eyes and gently says:” Hey there shortie, you finally awoke. I almost died of boredom waiting for you to wake up.” Chuuyas eyes widen as he understands what the brunet meant. “ What are you doing here anyway idiot? “, he asks embarrassed and then quieter,” Why did you save me?” He shyly looks up at Dazai through his bangs anticipating a cruel answer. The redhead is stunned when he hears his partners answer: “ That´s what being a partner means, right?” Notes: probably occ, i'm sorry, it's not Really romantic again i'm sorry

Summary:  When it comes to bonding, few things work as well as a whole lot of sleeping. AKA Chuuya Would Lock His Door But He Won't Admit This Is Why He Doesn't.

"We have four bedrooms," he says, as though that will change the fact that only one of four bedrooms is currently occupied, and said bedroom just so happens to be his. Ironically enough, of the four residents in the house, Chuuya is not one of the three residents currently occupying his bed.

"Your bed has the most space," Oda says, an apology written somewhere under the tone. And that, Chuuya has to concede is true.

Cute...

Oda sighs softly, closing the novel and carefully setting down in a corner of the bed, where it won't get crushed on accident. Dazai's fast asleep, curled up sideways between his legs, head tucked against the side of Oda's neck. His throat feels a little dry from narrating the book, but getting up now would wake Dazai and he definitely doesn't want to do that.

He doesn't particularly want to spend the next few hours asleep while sitting up though, and he lasts about half an hour before carding his fingers through Dazai's hair. "Can we lie down?" he asks, softly even though Dazai hasn't so much as twitched at the contact, but Dazai curls up tighter against him, head dropping to rest under his chin, and that's answer enough for him. One arm around the back of Dazai's shoulders, Oda slides the other on under Dazai's knees and spends a long moment trying to figure out how to move his own legs, restricted as his movement is.

In the end, he does a fairly awkward twist that gets his leg folded under himself, and that's all the leverage he needs to get up onto his knees on the bed, turning so he can lie Dazai down. Immediately, Dazai's hands reach up to cling to his arms, the weight of them pulling at him until he complies and lays down as well. Immediately, Dazai's hands relocate, one curling into his t-shirt over his chest. The other one slides to the back of his shoulder as Oda wraps his arms around Dazai. His mouth presses to Dazai's forehead, gentle and brief.

The position lasts for a few seconds before Dazai starts pushing at him, and Oda rolls onto his back so Dazai can sprawl over him instead, head pillowed on his shoulder this time with an arm and a leg thrown over him. Like a koala, Oda muses, and resists laughing at the thought. He can't say he's very opposed to the thought of Dazai clinging to him all day just like a koala. If anything, he'd welcome it if not for the fact that such an activity simply isn't possible considering both their schedules.

Perhaps the rarity of being able to just lie like this with Dazai simply means he should cherish the moment while he can, he muses, smiling and curling his arm so that it rests over the back of Dazai's shoulders. He can do that, Oda thinks, and turns his head so Dazai's hair just barely tickles his chin. He most certainly can.

 It's somewhere between too late for Kunikida to actually give a royal fuck, and too early for him to be vocal about not giving a royal fuck. At any other point, he'd be able to put an hour to the feeling, knows on an instinctive level that he reaches this point once the hour hand hits a particular angle, but his brain is too fried to even ponder the amount of effort required to lift his wrist high enough for him to check.

Really, it's all he can do to get his shoes off, meticulous nature stopping him from leaving them lying around haphazardly like a certain housemate of his. He sets his shoes down properly on the rack, and then curses his meticulous nature which insist he place said housemate's stupid shoes on the rack instead of leaving them in two separate locations just past the front door. He also curses everything under the sun and moon under his breath, since he's already cursing himself and going all the way only seems appropriate.

"... why I have to deal with this every single day, one day, just one day without a stupid question, and-"

"Welcome home, Kunikida," Oda says, and Kunikida's mumble-rant is cut off as he halts midstep, turning to look into the room he's passing. Oda blinks at him from the other side, eyes gray like smoke and half-lidded. It's a little odd for Kunikida's barely-functioning brain, because Oda is sideways and only the upper half of the man's head is visible from this perspective. The other half is blocked by the back of Dazai's head, and from what Kunikida can tell, the brunette is fast asleep. Or at the very least, faking sleep so that Kunikida won't kick him for not putting his fucking shoes on the rack properly. As if Kunikida won't kick him anyway when they're both awake and functioning.

"Ugh," Kunikida ends up saying instead of a return greeting, half-formed thoughts and tangents coalescing into a too-familiar dull ache building from between his eyes. The arm Oda has curled over the back of Dazai's shoulders flops down, hand flexing over the sheets in invitation. It's too much effort to consider the invitation. Kunikida just listens and drags his feet over, only pride and determination stopping him from flat out collapsing onto the bed.

As he sits down on it, Oda moves, rolling onto his side slowly so as to not jostle Dazai too much. It's a stupid gesture when Kunikida knows Dazai's awake- the idiot's little smile is a dead giveaway. It's also a little cute, Kunikida thinks, and promptly wants to smack himself for using cute as an adjective to describe Dazai.

"Get some rest," Oda murmurs softly, and Kunikida has never heard a better idea in his life. Even if he's told those exact same words at least five times a day. The sixth time is the charm apparently because he can't even think to disobey. He doesn't snuggle, he's not a fucking snuggler, despite what Dazai says, but he can't help but slide close and tuck himself along the curve of Dazai's back, forehead resting against the back of Dazai's shoulder.

He can feel Oda's arm against the top of his head, can feel the muscles there shifting as Oda's arm bends and a fingers press briefly to his back. It's too awkward of a position to maintain for very long, and the contact is gone almost as soon as it arrives. It's a gesture he appreciates nonetheless. Kunikida drapes his arm over Dazai's waist, fingers brushing Oda's stomach briefly in acknowledgement before they rest over Dazai's instead.

"Welcome home, Kunikida-kun," Dazai mumbles, voice sounding distant and slurred with sleep. Or maybe Kunikida's the one falling asleep. He's not complaining either way. He's home.

Chuuya's a fairly tolerant person, all things considered. He thinks he is anyway, considering living with Dazai of all people tends to build a person's tolerance to bullshit faster than anything else in the world. He can't help but wonder though, whether he should be amused or annoyed. Whether the current situation falls along the scale of Tolerable to Fuck The Hell Off Right This Second.

"We have four bedrooms," he says, as though that will change the fact that only one of four bedrooms is currently occupied, and said bedroom just so happens to be his. Ironically enough, of the four residents in the house, Chuuya is not one of the three residents currently occupying his bed.

"Your bed has the most space," Oda says, an apology written somewhere under the tone. And that, Chuuya has to concede is true. Oda's bed has enough space for the man himself, while the rest is taken up by the books Oda never seems to be able to have enough space for despite the number of shelves he has. Kunikida's bed is big enough for one, and even Chuuya can agree that the room is less of a room and more of an office. And Dazai... If Dazai has a bed somewhere in that mess, Chuuya hasn't seen it in a while.

"That explains nothing," Chuuya responds, even though it explains everything, and maybe Oda knows and maybe Oda doesn't, but the man just looks at the brunette currently asleep on his arm. If he could, Chuuya's certain he'd be looking at the blonde asleep behind Dazai too. Kunikida's fallen asleep with his glasses on again, and it says something Chuuya definitely doesn't ever want said when he strides over to carefully remove the glasses, folding and setting them down on the bedside table. Kunikida doesn't even stir, but Oda nods a thanks before glancing away for a moment.

"There's space here if you'd like?" the man offers, and Chuuya moves to turn down the offer before actually considering it.

"If one of you lie on me, there will be blood," he says in the end, and hears Oda's huff of a laugh as he climbs into bed.

"Chuuya, you can't take a little weight?" Dazai teases, and of course the bastard is awake, of course. He isn't even surprised, and Oda just presses a kiss to Dazai's hair as if to remind the asshole that a cuddle pile isn't the time for snide jabs. Cuddle pile, Chuuya repeats silently, and can't tell if that's amusing or horrifying.

Kunikida stirs a little as they all shift to make space, but ultimately doesn't actually do more than tighten the hold he has on Dazai. Whatever the guy says, he is definitely a Grade A Sleep Cuddler, Chuuya thinks, settling in the space between Oda and Dazai. It's warm, from lingering body heat and the two actual bodies pressing against him from both sides. His head is an inch or so under Dazai's chin, and he can almost feel each breath against his hair. For lack of any other comfortable position, his arm ends up draped over Dazai, hand on Kunikida's waist.

Someone's hand combs through his hair gently. Oda's, probably, because he can feel Dazai's arm crossed over his upper arm, resting on Oda's hip. "Welcome home, Chuuya," Dazai mumbles, and the sentiment is echoed half a second later by Oda. And Kunikida, probably, if the strange grumble Kunikida makes can be considered a greeting in the first place.

"Mmh," is all he can say, though maybe the little flush of warmth in his chest has already long since made itself known and pretending it isn't there just doesn't work anymore. No one pushes him though, which suits him just fine. It's good just like this. Amazing, actually.

Not that he'd ever admit it, though.
