So. Ive been kind of turning this au around in my head like a rotisserie chicken bc i obviously want to keep as many details as possible consistent with canon, but also that is kind of impossible given the massive leaps in technology between mouthwashing’s distant future and. Well. 1917. So what happens is that i figure their platoon is being court-martial’d for something (maybe cowardice/refusal to follow orders? For getting stuck up in the mountain bunker?) and Jimmy suggests blowing up the bunker theyre in so that they would have solid evidence that it wasnt their fault. Curly, still reeling, agrees, not thinking it would go anywhere, but Jimmy nabs the explosives from swansea and goes through with it anyways.
…more ramblings below v
Jimmy, in this au, was aware that Anya is trans before they were even stationed together, and becomes aware that Curly may be an invert (which, historically, means that he is not only queer, but adopts the ‘woman’s role’. This phenomena of inverts being treated more harshly than their more ‘manly’ counterparts is supported by history! Fun fact) while on the Ypres frontline. He is resentful towards Curly because how can a supposed invert, someone whom he has been taught is less than half of the man Jimmy himself is, be such a well-loved leader and well-rounded man? Why is Jimmy so drawn to him? Why does he still respect and even love this ‘man��? What does that say about his own masculinity?
The cognitive dissonance is too much for his weak, spiteful, hateful little pea brain and he feels like he is losing what little control he had over his own masculinity and understanding of the social world to begin with. This leads him to assault anya and, added with the stress of a court-martial, blow the bunker up.
I figure they give Curly what little chloroform they have in the medical kit to keep him asleep until they run out/it starts making him too sick and are forced to start giving him soothing syrup and gin in large doses. Anya and Curly had something of a mutual understanding/budding friendship before the incident, both having had a sense about the other, which makes Curly’s subsequent inaction suck all the more. He understands Anya better than anyone else there, so why didnt he do anything? Anya doesn’t understand, and she never gets to ask. She still takes extreme care in tending his wounds though, and will often go to his bedside and tell him stories/play cards with him (and by that i mean play cards by herself and narrate her strat)
I also figure the whole thing happens over a matter of days as opposed to months because. You know. 1917. But anyways. If anyone wants to talk about this w me/add on to it, any musings are more than welcome!! I love queer and ww1 history :) see tags for more tidbits❤️
#loosely related to yhe actual story itself: anya is the tallest#followed by swansea then jimmy then curly then daisuke#daisuke is super resourceful and can often be found with a truly obscene amount of alcohol/cigarettes/sugar/butter/ whatever from bartering#or gambling at cards#or stealing BUT DONT TELL NOBODY.#Swansea is also very resourceful (who do u think daisuke learned it from) so theyre a power duo#curly hypes anya up however discreetly he can#tells her she looks beautiful in so many words#she knows what hes trying to do and appreciates him for it#they gossip about command and who is queer/who is fucking who for what price and who is going to brothels and getting the clap and all that#no secrets are safe with them between his connections and her patients there is NO tea they dont collectively know#i just love them.#gawd.#anyways.#mouthwashing#curly mouthwashing#anya mouthwashing#jimmy mouthwashing#daisuke mouthwashing#swansea mouthwashing#mouthwashing game#my art#doodle#ww1

thinking about stan "god i love cards and gambling" pines
#the fact that alex specifically changed soos' dad postcard coming from vegas to new orleans#cos he REALLY didn't want it to be associated with stan#also dipper and soos getting super mad at losing is really funny to me#mabel's gambling hat :)#stan pines#stanley pines#gravity falls#mabel pines#dipper pines#soos ramirez#using chipackers for bets.... i would probably lose by snacking on them the entire time#also j3 ford mentioning he got kicked out from lottocron cos he also counts cards#dipper really needs to learn how to cheat at gambling cos otherwise hes gonna be left out lmao#stan being happy he can play poker with more than just soos and occasionally wendy#only to learn that mabel is cracked at it and now theyre getting their asses kicked by a 12 y/o#but also i like the idea of stan being great at cash wheel due to years of guessing ciphers#altho watching it over decades probably helped lmao

Barty is a master fucking card counter and it pisses off everyone he plays with when they realize
(Everytime Barty wins against someone else Regulus is batting his eye lashes and kicking his feet cause that's so attractive)
#bartylus#regulus x barty#barty crouch jr#regulus black#barty engages in occasional gambling#cause he's cocky and knows he's gonna win#barty probably didn’t even realize he was card counting at first#marauders era#marauders

My Neopet, passive aggressively in the corner: "Destruct-o-Match sounds fun right about now!" Me, losing my 100th round of Solitaire: Not now baby mama's gambling
#text post#neopets#seriously I don't know what clicked with solitaire and other card games but I am obsessed#Pyramids is dangerous too#probably proof I should never actually spend real money on gambling#also yes I'm on neopets#I might make art but it's just been a sort of casual thing#I love the flash-era style mini games it's nostalgic#shitpost

I like it when the fandom engages with Chuuya drinking problematically or Akutagawa smoking despite his lung disease or Fyodor indulging his gambling addiction.
Asagiri can't explore the same, there's a censorship regime in Japan for manga aimed at certain ages. But even if he doesn't care to, fan works should be transformative and exploratory; and fan works that do so while engaging with the source material and its themes like humanity and contradiction and culpability are even more golden for doing so.
The urge to lacquer fiction in performative didactism and aversion to moral turpitude is self cannibalizing.
#bsd#bungou stray dogs#bsd fyodor#bsd chuuya#bsd akutagawa#fyodor especially gets an odd treatement where people treat everything he does as immaculately calculated and within his total control#when he does things ALL of the time on a gamble and is just really good at counting cards#like the best card counter can still break a nil#anyway#let the bsd characters engage in unruly behavior#let them have issues that bsd doesnt explore#let them be reflections of people#this isnt about any one post btw#its about a genre of post#it takes slightly more than one post for me to whine#i prefer to waste my breath on perceived patterns instead
