I didn't want to make the reblog chain any longer but I just wanted to say I actually don't consider Fyodor's attachment to Dazai as one sided because of this statement from Asagiri: "There are rare moments when Dazai shows his very “human” side. That is when he talks to another superhuman who is on the same level with him. The other is when he talks about his old friend who has passed." But like you mentioned, they're on opposite sides so they're totally doomed hehe. Some fyozai fans like to create AUs where Dazai convinces Fyodor to embrace goodness, but I like thinking about the reverse where Fyodor convinces Dazai to embrace evilness. 😈Imagine how terrifying that would be to have the both of them as antagonists? Nobody would be able to stop them.

AH, hello rblogger! It’s funny that you said you didn’t want to make the reblog chain longer, because I was making a another separate post in my drafts for that exact same reason. This is the current tag of that post:

And that quote! I’ve never seen it before, that’s so interesting! It recontextualizes what I previously thought about about Dazai’s feelings towards Fyodor. Funny how a certain redhead isn’t included in the people Dazai shows his “human side” to, isn’t it? (I’m sorry skk shippers please don’t kill me.)

To me, it seems that there are two faces to Dazai’s “human” side. There is the part of him that good be traditionally considered “good” and the part of him that could be traditionally considered “evil.” A paraphrased version of a quote I almost remember by heart, is when Oda tells Dazai: “if it makes no difference to you whether you kill or save people in this world, be on the side that saves people.”

In the context of the quote you mentioned and the one I just did, Fyodor represents “kill” and Oda represents “save,” the two ends of the spectrum of what kind of “human” Dazai could be.

With this information, I would consider fyozai’s dynamic requited, but I also think… that’s only if Oda’s character ceases to exist.

I firmly believe that in every universe that Oda and Dazai exist, Dazai chooses Oda. Above Fyodor, above Chuuya, above Atsushi, above the armed detective agency, above the entire world—Dazai will screw up the lives of everybody as long as he can save Oda.

This is evidenced in the Beast universe: a world where Dazai does exactly that.

It could then be plausibly believed that Fyodor and Dazai have a chance at being ride-or-die partners in crime in an alternate universe where Dazai exists and Oda doesn’t—but I highly doubt that. Dazai and Oda’s fates are so intertwined across universes that in every universe where Dazai lives, Oda dies. The opposite is also true; in the only universe that Oda lives, Dazai dies.

Out of billions of universes, the only one where Oda lives, Dazai must die. I argue this shows the sheer extent to which Dazai and Oda’s fate are intertwined, and because they are intertwined, Oda is a central part of Dazai’s character development in every universe.

Of course Dazai being friends with Fyodor and Dazai being friends with Oda aren’t mutually exclusive things, but any kind of relationship Dazai would willingly entertain with Fyodor would always be colored by Oda’s influence, if you know what I mean?

It’s like… having a very memorable ex, even though I don’t ship Odazai.

It is my of my opinion, canonically, that Oda is the only person with the capacity to significantly change Dazai. That is what I mean by Fyodor and Dazai’s dynamic being unrequited—it could be requited, Fyodor understands Dazai, so he could theoretically change him, but it will never be to the degree that Oda changes Dazai. I believe Dazai will always put Oda’s words above everyone else’s, and I believe Oda exists in every universe Dazai exists in.

i will say, in the realm of monsterfucking my favorites hands down are centipede and spider people. lots of fuckable monsters but something about those two in particular just get me.

centipede people are cute bc i feel like they probably give the best hugs. oh to be firmly but gently pressed up against a centipede person with their legs wrapped around every part of my body.

i like things that have more limbs than usual 😩 i would love to give them a full body massage, if no one else ever does that for you i bet it goes crazy. so many little spots to touch, i wonder where their sensitive spots would be... aughhhh it's so not fair that it's not realistic for me to have a spider gf to spoil 😔💔

i am more than a monsterfucker i am a monsterlover Too, i want to care for them so sweetly and show them tenderness in a world that has nothing but fear and hate for them. come here my love

Just two silly little ship templates for two lesser known ships that I don't yap about so often. First the Stupid Ass Ship for Ress and Piper from my Fallout series A Radioactive Calamity Of Love, Bombs & Gore and a Silly ship template for John and Nadi from FC5 and my The Silver Chronicles series. You can find them below the cut:

[Translation for the unreadable:

What brings them together?

Ress isn't entirely human (her words and actions make that very clear) so there's already a pique of curiosity there, she's also been around in other parts of America + is a daughter from the Bishop Crime Family, so Piper gets a really good scoop here. Also the Occult and the Institute are threats that need to be exposed. So common interest (even when both women get on each other's nerves sometimes).

What is keeping them/kept them apart?

Both have insecurities and fears. Piper's been ridiculed and ostracized by her community even when she's been well-meaning, and she's afraid that friends and family find her annoying and want her to go away. Ress has lost friends and family, one of whom (her brother Ore) was the only one (like her) who could also live past the expected lifespan. So its less she doesn't want to be with Piper, and more she doesn't want to experience the pain of losing her so quickly. So Ress puts up a overconfident douche front to keep Piper at arms length.

Describe their meet-cute poorly:

Nigh-Immortal woman finds a journalist yapping outside Diamond City's walls, decides to help her get inside using poorly disguised fake mustache, glasses and wigs to trick the guard to let them in. Somehow, it works.]

[Translation for the Unreadable:

(John's) Quote about [Nadi]:

"Nadi is an exceptional follower of the Project, and one of my most loyal faithful. She's come so far in overcoming her sins."

(Nadi's) Quote about [John]:

"John is the reason I'm here today. He gave me purpose, a home and something worth believing in."

i think the sarah and jj sibling dynamic is.... interesting.... i guess.... maybe in the way that someone you're friends with becomes like a sibling. but sarah cameron already has a brother in rafe. and there is such a fucking wealth of shit to dive into between them: anger, resentment, jealousy, hatred, fear, missing the person they used to be, and beneath it all, love. idk sorry y'all what is jj even bringing to the siblings-table? that they can be chaotic and blond together? have u guys ever heard of having a friend ?

Circling back to this post to clarify something--

As I mentioned, Katsuki says that he bullied Izuku out of a desire to ignore the weaknesses in himself that he could not understand. This is correct in the manga, but technically not in the anime, because the manga uses a unique pairing of kanji and furigana to convey an additional meaning to Katsuki's words.

Furigana are the tiny little phonetic characters to the right of kanji. They are used in manga to help younger readers understand words they may know phonetically but maybe not in writing; they are also used to clarify meaning and readings in uncommon usage.

And they are used by writers to express layered, dual, or contradictory meanings.

In the manga, Katsuki says: 「理解できねェ自分の弱さを棚上げして虐めだ。」

The furigana tells us he pronounces the kanji 自分 (normally read as jibun) as てめー (temee). てめー means you, this is the pronoun Katsuki uses for basically everyone, so it is clear he is talking about Izuku's weaknesses. But 自分 is a reflexive pronoun meaning my own, myself, so this tells readers that, out loud, Katsuki is saying "Izuku's weaknesses," but he means "my own weaknesses."

The anime uses the furigana, Okamoto Nobuhiko says てめー. This is normal because furigana express the phonetic reading of the line, which is what the people he is talking to in-universe would hear him say, and the kanji is just extra nuance for readers.

(Bonus fact: you might have seen Okamoto mention that the voice director told him, "Don't talk to All Might, just talk while looking at Deku" for his reading of this line. This is an excellent interpretation of Katsuki's mindset here and is reinforced by the words he uses. He is talking to All Might, so when he says てめーの弱さ, this would ordinarily be understood to mean All Might's weaknesses, because temee means you! But Katsuki obviously doesn't mean that. He is thinking out loud about Izuku... so he ends up talking to Izuku, not All Might.)

Anyway, my description in the initial post of the subtitle being incorrect was a little clumsy. I was primarily focused on the mistranslation of the relationship between the verbs. The issue with "It creeps me out and makes me want to ignore the fact that I bully him because I can't understand his weaknesses," is that the direct object of 棚上げして (tanaageshite, setting aside of, shelving of) is not Katsuki's bullying of Izuku, it is "his weaknesses that I can't understand."

The thing Katsuki has tried to set aside and ignore is not his bullying of Izuku, it is Izuku's incomprehensible self-sacrificial nature. I wanted to emphasize that, because this line is Katsuki speaking really frankly about his mistakes, and I didn't like the idea that people could misinterpret this as him being dismissive of them.

But I got a little careless about the difference in pronouns between the manga and anime, sorry about that! At least now we got to talk about cool layered furigana meanings. :D
