The Boy in the Belfry Pt. 11, a Bungo Stray Dogs fic.

I might not be able to update this weekend, but you can read the whole story here. I’ve rewritten some parts for tumblr, nothing major. --- The door to the cool, tiled room opened and a familiar face appeared in the opening. A small streak of light shone on the battered face of the young teenager who sat, cradling himself on the floor.

Dazai's worried face snapped up as Mori entered the room. A twitchy but relieved smile became visible on the teens face in recognition, and Mori smiled back. Something seemed off though. Something in Mori's eyes.

Regret? Maybe even sorrow?

Dazai's faint smile morphed into a scream, as another dog was released into the room. ---

Mori stood expressionless and watched their prisoner. He had been fading in and out of consciousness since they arrived. The lack of smart remarks and smirks from his former apprentice was unnerving, to say the least. It was as if he was looking at the broken ten-year-old who he had saved from the very same man he now had returned him to, so many years ago.

Abducting him from the hospital had been easier than expected. As soon as The Babysitters Club had dispatched, he seemingly had free range. It turned out that there weren't many safety precautions there at all. Mori had walked in, wearing his old white coat and been assumed to be a doctor at the hospital. The elderly receptionist had not hesitated when giving up the room number, and he had walked in, injected the sleeping ADA agent with a mild tranquilizer, unhooked him from any tubes and wires and walked out of there with him in a wheelchair.

It was so easy that it almost felt anticlimactic. It only made him happy that the Port Mafia had their own medical wing, with a large staff and all the facilities necessary to treat any kind of sickness or injury.

The Armed Detective Agency clearly needed to step up their game.

The preacher himself was a big disappointment too. The large and intimidating figure was reduced to nothing more than a hunchbacked old man, who was clearly a little out of touch with reality and completely insane.

At the moment he was downstairs at the altar, switching between preaching and speaking in tongues to an imaginary congregation.

Mori chuckled. He had never in his life believed in any God.

Calmly, he walked towards Dazai, silently assessing his injuries and how much time he had left, if left in this hopeless state.

He reminisced about the first time he had seen Dazai. He passed the old church at random on his way to a mission, while a Sunday service had just finished. The preacher had stood grand and stoic, shaking every single hand as the crowd of people passed on their way out. Behind him stood a boy with half of his face covered in bandages, leaning heavily on crutches.

His black suit made him transparent with the dark walls of the church as he stood, terrified of meeting anyone's gaze. Almost invisible, to anyone but Mori.

To Mori, he shone bright like a firefly in the night. A forsaken soul, a fractured mind and an unforgivable sinner. He was perfect.

Mori asked around about the strange pair. It appeared that this preacher was well known in the more extremist Christian societies of the city at the time. The ones who longed and grasped at something or anything to save them and prove their faith. They would believe anything they were told (or in this case, shown, which further fueled the preacher's narcissism).

This was also the reason no one knew his actual name. In his everyday life, he had taken the name Gen'emon Tsushima (1), and he called Dazai, Shuji (2). But, he wanted to be known simply as the preacher. The Preacher. The one and only. He could show them God, but in his own mind, he probably was the man himself. There was no one registered by the names Gen’emon and Shuji Tsushima in Yokohama- not much research needed to find that out. The Preacher would only call Dazai by his real name whenever he was 'performing', an act that was exclusive and very expensive.

From that point forward, the arrangements had been easy, and Mori had manipulated the situation to seem like any other of the preacher's… gigs. 

The fact that the boy's mind had turned on his father was simply a very lucky coincidence.

Mori sighed and looked at the loosening bandages on Dazai's forearms. Every single day of Dazai's life was sketched onto his body in scars.

The leader of the Port Mafia scoffed as an ominous smile came to show on his lips.

---

“What has Skindiana Bones done this time?” sneered an aggravated Chuuya as he answered the phone.

“I might borrow that sometime,” Kunikida mumbled as he waited for the rest of the agency to get seated into the cars.

“Shut your face or tell me what's going on.”

“I wish I could, but I don't really know. Dazai disappeared from the hospital again sometime during the night.”

“I'm shocked,” he said nonchalantly, “but, I haven't heard anything from the bonehead.”

“We're going to The Shinja church right now, we've looked everywhere else.”

Kunikida waited for a reply. When it didn't come any, he continued.

“I thought you might like to know, in case you want to tag along.”

Another silent moment, before an exasperated sigh, was heard from the other end.

“Fine!” and a short 'fuck' was heard as the connection cut.

---

Chuuya wasted no time as he ran to his motorcycle. It was faster and made it easier to pass all the slowpokes on the road. He wondered if he should have told them that Dazai's father was back, but he had no idea how much they already knew. There was no time to explain.

Before starting his bike he suddenly remembered something. Another curse was whispered, as he ran back in to the house and retrieved a bag that he tucked safely in the compartment under the seat before he got on the bike and raced through the morning streets, feeling the fresh puddles of rainwater splash onto his calfs as he headed for that place that made his blood freeze. He just prayed (nonono, no way) hoped it hadn't gotten out of hand.

---

In a different part of town, two more vehicles were speeding towards the Shinja Church. There was no way to know what they would see when they arrived. Atsushi sat in the back of Kunikida's car with Kyouka, as he usually did. Restless legs shook while worried eyes looked out the windows and no one spoke.

Ranpo sat in the passenger seat up front, while Kunikda was driving. Yosano drove the other car, with Kenji and Tanizaki.

They had to park their cars across the street at a parking lot. While they all ushered out of the vehicles, a red and black motorcycle spun past them, and the redheaded driver threw his helmet to the curb and ran to the fence that embraced the dilapidated building.

“Chuuya!” Kunikida yelled as the ran across the road.

The gate was once again chained up, and the short man furiously shook the gate before he started climbing. Kunikida quickly pulled out his notebook and drew some boltcutters that he used to clip the lock.

The gate creaked open with the startled mafia executive on top of it, clinging to it desperately while it slid to the side.

“Patience, my friend,” Kenji smiled as they entered the property.

Chuuya gnarled something inaudible as he jumped off. Kunikida looked ready to open the door, but Chuuya fled up the few steps and stopped him.

“Wait,” he gasped. Kunikida looked confused at him, as Chuuya let go of his tight grip of the tall man's arm.

“The doors were bolted shut the last time we were here,” he said quietly. “There has definitely been someone in here since then. If it's...” how much should he actually tell them?

“Dazai's father?” Ranpo blurted out. Chuuya threw him a skeptical look.

“Do you already know?” he asked.

“No, we don't. It was an educated guess,” Ranpo explained, looking a bit ashamed.

“Well, you're probably right. And if this is in fact what is going on, Dazai might be in very real danger,” Chuuya explained. “Mori might be in there too. The leader of the Port Mafia.”

“Why haven't you told us this befo-” Kunikida's nostrils dilated and his cheeks flushed, but he got interrupted by a dangerous stare from the small man.

“Not the time, sunshine!” Chuuya sneered. “We need to get a move on.”

Chuuya had second thoughts, 'Shit, shit, shit, he's gonna hate me, he's gonna destroy me, completely obliviate me, he's gonna kill me...'

But, he was already here. And Dazai was in there.

He positioned himself to open the doors, and looked at the others, receiving a nod in return. They were ready.

The doors groaned loudly as they opened, and a deranged voice roamed through the voluminous room.

“Shower me in your light! I am nothing but a pawn. Please, listen to a sinners chagrin!”

The lights flickered, and the purple fog returned for the first time in twelve years.

Mori stood by the wall in the sanctuary, looking over to their newest arrivals with a satisfied grin.

Further down at the crossing, Dazai sat slumped on the stairs. He had been discarded of his hospital clothes and lay nearly bare except for the boxer shorts and bandages, half-conscious.

A couple of feet from him, stood The Preacher with his hands reached out and eyes closed as the dark haze engulfed his son's body once again.

Dazai's weak body trembled, from fear or from pain. Maybe both. The convolutions he was far too familiar with had started, turned more violent and soon he lay limp on his side.

The earth stood still. No sound, no light, no movement, no nothing.

Until suddenly Dazai arched his broken back with a loud gasp, as the blackened fog exited from his mouth and transformed to an apparition in front of him.

The newly entered crowd stood paralyzed, watching the unbelievable sight. 

Not only was this an ability that none of them had ever seen or heard of, but it worked on Dazai. The shock was even bigger as the apparition turned more and more recognizable.

Even Mori was stunned.

It was Dazai.

[suicidefrantic]

When I know I should be doing other things but making a family for my dear Shuji (aka Dazai), I ended up somehow making up his family. I have taken up another muse, the eldest brother (Katsumi). I mean I know every Dazai is different but shrugs--- hey my muses sort of now just write themselves \o/  What can I say. I have lost all control and the muses have taken over. I mean I don’t mind too much. Anyways below the break I will start talking about Shuji’s (Dazai) family. 

Father:   Gen'emon Tsushima (Originally from the  Matsuki family--- chosen to marry the eldest daughter of the Tsushima family-- as he wasn’t the oldest son nor heir of his family.)  

Mother:  Tane Tsushima 

Gen’emon and Tane bore eight children and lived with the Tsushima manor located in  Kanagi, a remote corner of Japan at the Northern tip of Tōhoku in Aomori Prefecture. The manor didn’t only house Shuji and his siblings along with his parents but other relatives as well (thirty people lived in the house) this did not include the servants. 

Tane was an ill woman, but she didn’t always show signs of her health struggles. Where as Gen’emon was the head of the family and typically was not home as he traveled a lot. Though when he was home he thought it was a decent thing to teach his youngest son that the world was not fair in life. He saw his youngest (Shuji) as an ability less born child to a family full of successful ability users. He thought abusing his son would help him to form his ability--- though he wasn’t aware that his son did possess a passive ability- No Longer Human. 

Tsushima siblings:

Eldest: Katsumi  (Age 34)

Hiroyoshi (32)

Kazuya (29) 

Takashi (27)

Yasuo (25) 

Kouta (25) 

Ren (Only female born to the Tsushima family) (One year older than Shuji)  ( 23)

Youngest- Shuji (Dazai) (Present age 22)

It was like an unspoken rule that everyone born with the Tsushima bloodline would be born successful and with abilities that would only help them in life. This of course didn’t include Shuji, as he was seen as the black sheep of the family. He would eventually be disowned (in canon verse) and eventually take the name of Dazai Osamu. 

Gen’emon would mold Katsumi to be the heir who would end up taking his place when he died. Though he did try to spend time with Shuji, taking the youngest to Yokohama. He had plans to marry his youngest off, but only if he could get the other to behave and stop acting like a clown. The plan to marriage would have been to Miran Lee (@frozcnlight)-- who ended up being the only friend that Shuji had ever made. 

Gen’emon would disown Shuji after traveling back from Yokohama. Soon after the head of the Tsushima family would die of tuberculous and Katsumi would take over as head. Tane would have long passed away by this time due to her ill health. Though when she was alive she would not wish to have anything to do with Shuji by the time he reached six (it had been a slow process but she kept pushing him away more and more.) Due to his upbringing Shuji despises his family and doesn’t know the meaning of love truly nor human emotions fully.

[aidendh]

BSD! OC! Ryūnosuke Niihara |P4

If Takeo Kagami used her Ability Lier Lier on him with the question 'Who are you?' Or 'What's your name?'. His honest answer would be whatever part he is currently playing

Ryūnosuke for his child self, Niihara for his adult self

He is too drowned under the masks to know his real self

Because of relying on an underground doctor for both his medication and severe injuries, Ougai Mori often experiments on Niihara without him realizing

This includes most of his medication being drug tests instead of being for his sickness

-

During the Gifted War, the fight against Kamui is replaced with Nagisa

Niihara's death was caused by his Ability being told by an unknown voice (punishment) to kill his allies

His shadow has pegasus wings

His favorite name to go by is Hane

Fyodor Sougen is his 'true self', in this mind state his is the most natural and prefers his natural hair

As Ayato Hane his mind is more foggy and he often forgets he's the villain

Ayato prefers to dye his hair Orange, though is often disappointed when it becomes Black again

(Fyodor often re-dyes it back)

The same can be said for his Pink eyes, Fyodor puts in Maroon contacts

He was born with his scar, an orange hair streak and pink eyes

Sometimes he believes his Ability merely puts people to sleep, this never ends well

He has no idea why Yozo Tsushima hates him so much, but it hurts to feel a Soul so similar to his own and yet much healthier. This fulls his resentment of the Tsushimas

He is scared of Gen'emon, because for some reason he can't sense him and yet he can Never forget him

He often gets Yozo's name wrong, half because of forgetfulness and half because it annoys Yozo

An 'Adrik' incarnation would take on the name Hane

He is the most expressive with his shoulders

He prefers to fight using two swords

It took him years (since junior high) and Naoto's help to recreate to chemical structure of Alicorn Crystal, he later uses this to create poisons and his final Swords

BSD! OC! Yozo Tsushima | P4

She claimed the name Fei as a symbol of a new life untied to the chains of their Ability

While working with Kyoushi, they carried spare painkillers for him

They often call Kagami, Gami-chan

-

Yozo's disguised form of the Fox Miraculous is unknown as he hides wrapped around one of his wrists and hidden under his bandages

However, Fei's is attached to her choker like a charm

It's disguised as a Silver kitsune who's silhouette looks like a flame, the cluster of tails are adorned with a Red gem centered above it's head

When transformed, it is hidded inside their bell

-

In the Dragon Head Incident, Selfaware would form into a sentient book and torment Fei. She would later be rescued by Pure State of Mind, showing how her brother did care for them in his own way

He has once set up an entire Ghost rumor just to scare Gen'emon during a Summer Festival, especially when he couldn't purify the ghost (Yozo in disguise)

Despite being terrible at instruments, they can play the Piano surprisingly well, but only with their eyes closed

They sometimes have Mute days

Fei's beige coat after Rank 10 is just their old one with the length cut shorter and used for a hood

Yozo Tsushima to the Audience

"This is going to be an interesting story, now isn't it?"

Yozo Tsushima (津島 要造,, Tsushima Yōzō) was a member of the Tower Detective Agency and former mafioso of the Port Mafia. They have the Ability named Selfaware.

Personality: Suicidal, Deceptive, Childish, Clever, Mischievous, Mute(15/Sometimes)

Confidant/Arcana: Death

-:Ability:-

Selfaware (自己認識,, Jikoninshiki) allows Yozo to receive random bursts of information that the audience of Bungou Stray Dogs: Lost Souls would know. They have no control over the information and often receives it out of context (eg, Dazai nullifying the Weretiger when meeting Atsushi Hinata). This also allows them to break the 4th wall. It is later found out that their ability originally made them completely self aware, but they gained a mental block growing up because of the mental strain.

Yozo is also shown to be able to interact with the animation effects, despite being the only one to see them. This makes it look like he can stand on air, interact with people from across the room, be touched by invisible forces and even suddenly appear and disappear. For example, by interacting with another's chibi when in conversation in different rooms, it feels like the recipient is being touched by them.

BSD! OC! Yozo Tsushima | P3

After their brother's death, Pure State of Mind latched onto them instead, however it has a mind of its own

She allows herself to drink around the anniversary of the war

In place of the Port Mafia of their Palace, there is a mirage of a Grave Yard, however to enter pass the invisible barrier, you need Gen'emon's key words

Both of the Twins' Shadows can pass though it freely

Tarou's Mementos Shadow sometimes replaces his cognition, both Tarou's and Yozo's Shadows seem to have a close link

At some point building up to the war, Yozo's Palace starts to gain strange electronic vines seeping in from Shujin Academy

This gives Selfaware access to information about the Hinatas

However, Yozo's attachment to Atsushi refuses to acknowledge his connection

His Shadow uses this as a chance to learn/decode the Hinata's Shadow languages

Because of Selfaware, Yozo often has existential crisises

Because of their linked Palaces, the Twins have 'Twin telepathy' moments

His Shadow's Talisman symbolizes the subconscious restraint he puts on his Ability

If it was removed, all the information would continuously flood his mind, this renders his Shadow immobile and makes it hard for Yozo to focus

Post-War, Yozo ends up stealing her brother's old glasses as her eyesight grows worse

...they have the same prescription

In the Mafia they would sometimes communicate using an MP3 Player or a Voice Recorder, they loved using clips from songs

One day Fuku finds an old burnt coat around the house, when shown to Yozo, he claimed it to be his old Mafia coat he thought he burned away years ago

After giving Yozo puppy dog eyes, he allow her to keep it, on the condition that she mends it herself

Fuku works as a waitress at Café Uzumaki

During the Tower Arc, Seki had only recently started working as a Clerk/Secretary at the Agency

Much to Kyoushi's annoyance, they gave him the nickname Shishi

A while after Kyoushi's break up, Yozo and Kyoushi talk through their feelings, however Kyoushi decides he needs more time and they both agree to wait until after the war

Kyoushi goes missing before they get the chance

Despite the similarities, Yozo is an incarnate of my RAU! Dazai who was a part of the Survivor Protection Squad

His PL death day is Chuuya's/Kyoushi's birthday

Unfortunately, during the war, Yozo got their butterfly hair-clip broken by Fyodor

She now uses it as a broken keychain on her phone

They have a stash of different instruments which they use for memes, their favorite is the Saxophone

They are terrible at most of them

Their friend group back in the Port Mafia was them, Mizuki Oda and Sojiro Sakura

She likes going to Le Blanc just to bother him

-

Near the end of the war, when he finally reunites with Atsushi

Yozo tries to get through to him about how much they went through together and that he doesn't need to listen to Fyodor anymore

Atsushi caves as hugs Yozo in tears as they both share heartfelt words

Then Yozo says;

"You're going to kill me now aren't you?" -YT

*AH snuggles in more*

"Mmhm..." -AH

Then Atsushi slices Yozo's stomach with his claws and leaves them to bleed out after finding no pulse

Yozo's body is later found by Akira who calls them out on pretending

They are then carried away for medical attention as they still had a grievous injury
