Soukoku/taylor swift rant (trust)

tw possible mention of sh, though it’s up to interpretation🤷🏼‍♀️

why does every Taylor swift song fit w soukoku?😭 like maybe it’s js cus im a delusional swiftie and skk shipper but omfg they fit so well, like cardigan- pleasseee😭😭✋ it’s literally their song‼️

“you drew stars around my scars.” THATS SO SOUKOKU😭😭😭

And a huge part of illicit affairs fits them too

“and you wanna scream ‘don’t call me kid, don’t call me baby! Look at this god-foresaken mess that you made me!’ You showed me colors yk I can’t see w anyone else. And you wanna scream ‘don’t call me kid, don’t call me baby! Look at this idiotic fool that you made me! You taught me a secret language I can’t speak with anyone else. And you know damn well, for you I would ruin myself. 1000 little times.” idk maybe that’s a stretch but😭🙏 daylight is so them tooo agghhhhh!!!!!

“and I can still see it all, in my head, back and forth, from New York, sneaking in your bed, I once believed love would be, burning red, but it’s golden.”

PLEASEE GUYS TRUSTTT THEY ARE SO TAYLOR SWIFT CODED ITS LIKE SHES BEEN SECRETLY WRITING ABT THEM💀💀 (me nd my friends have made that a joke that she has been writing abt them😭)

Also here take these sketches of Dazai with a therapy cat bc i said so:33

[villain-byteniwoha]

Oh sskk with their opposing black and white aesthetic (both in fashion and in ability), their parallel backstory, their shared loyalty to Dazai (who is canonically preparing them to become partners, mind you), their clashing ideals; the way Atsushi unearths the humane side of Akutagawa and how Akutagawa, in turn, nurtures Atsushi's rage.

The fact that they make each other hold on to their self-worth... So, so much of the text can be read as romantic, it's insane to me.

Akutagawa's ability is literally using his clothes as a weapon, and for him to be able to give Rashoumon at all while leaving himself bare to violence? Just so Atsushi, who's always had to beg for the pain to stop, who's just gained control over his damn ability to regenerate, can be armored—be stronger.

Tell me that's not a metaphor for vulnerability, I dare you. The inherent intimacy of giving someone your cloak to shelter them while you take the brunt of the harsh environment. The contentment of having the person you love, safe. (This is an ode to Chapter 88 btw in case you didn't notice.)

Like—there is something so raw about being someone's enemy. It is showing the worst parts of yourself (the anger, the self-worth issues) and knowing your other half will come back to you, regardless. It's feral and wild and uncontrollable; Akutagawa will bear his scars like they are the most tender love marks, and while Atsushi may heal, he will always know the pain of Akutagawa's claws.

Their abilities aside, they just click with each other, but they live with circumstances where that connection is (portrayed as) unwanted. BEAST is proof enough that they can bond over the horrors of their past, where others would not be able to comprehend them.

There's also, you know... Something something, Atsushi telling Akutagawa that he's more than what Dazai says. Akutagawa telling Atsushi he's stronger than his past. Something along those lines.

Something something I love you because I know no other way than this, where I does not exist nor you and all the other love sonnets in the world.

[welcome-to-the-shit-library]

why does he keep doing this

[greys-ghosts-talk]

Genuinely why do peopel feel the need to comment 'friends' and 'they're not a couple' on ship posts, like maybe not to you but this person clearly likes to see them that way, and (as long as they're ethical/legal ) then you can just ignore it. and, y'know, not feed the algorithm data saying 'i like this'. even better you can block the poster. remove it from your situation.

Like when people get into relationships knowing they're going to have problems with their partner's relationship with friends, or lifestyle, or political views, or different views on the roles of a relationship. just don't get into that relationship if its going to go south. just ignore/block the creator. not that hard. you just look like a crying child in the comments. (again if its like p*dophilic, inc**t, ab*sive etc. then its a different story but commenting 'friends' is stupid, especially given the situation you're commenting it in.) Have your own opinions and interact with shipping that you agree with, please and thank you.

Also to add, even if you, yourself are part of the shippers that recive these comments, don't then go and belittle other's ships in order to claim why your's is 'right' or 'correct'. You are also making a toxic fandom, and while im sure alot of people these days don't let fandoms ruin shows for them, you are ruining that community and possible expierance for them. Alot of people need the safe place of a fandom and community of people that enjoy the same great piece of media they also enjoy and you're taking that from them.

You're also creating dead fandoms. no one wants to interact with a toxic fandom, so the fandoms that are, are gonna die. you are part of the fandom and therefore part of keeping it alive. this is mainly aimed and toxic bkdk and jegulus shipping but there are alot of others I've seen.

Personally im a multishipper, so I rarely come across shipping i cant see logic behind (at least) but i know lots of people can't see ships like that so if you can't, please at the least be decent in your own community that you're supposed to be nurturing and supporting.

also feeling the need to bring up jegulus as an example again, but another version of putting down other ships is also villainizing/degrading characters. You can ship someone in a cannon relationship with someone else, and you can give reasons in fics and such as to why they arent in that relationship in that context, but being purposely horrible (making peope hate the character for no reason counts as being horrible to the character) and mischaracterizing someone to be a bad guy/villainizing them, is toxic, alot of the time misogynistic, and another way of shitting on someone else's ship in order to make yours seem better.

please remember that whilst you are at liberty to ship who you want (ETHICALLY) they are at liberty to disagree with that ship. see? now move on and go your separate ways.

thx :)

Top-zai and Bottom-zai... But what about Switch-zai???

‧͙⁺˚*･༓☾❤️‍🩹☽༓･*˚⁺‧͙‧͙⁺˚*･༓☾🧡☽༓･*˚⁺‧͙‧͙⁺˚*･༓☾❤️‍🩹☽༓･*˚⁺‧

A slightly self indulgent nsfw rant is abt to unfold

this may or may not be out of character for Dazai and Chuuya so I'm sorry-

Seeing the discourse about whether or not Dazai should be a top or a bottom is so funny to me. Not because of how ridiculous it is (I actually enjoy seeing some valid points being made on both sides), but because honesty??? Switch-zai has some potential! I like the idea of Dazai being able to be dominant or submissive depending on what he or his partner thinks at the moment.

Like Chuuya could be flirting with Dazai when he least expects it and Dazai would become a flustered mess about it. However, Dazai could also have his moments of cockiness that gets Chuuya equally flustered when he's least expecting it.

A scenario that pops up in my head that sums up my take would be Chuuya pinning Dazai. Usually for Dazai, he would expect such actions to come out of Chuuya but something that would always get him would be when Chuuya pins him in a seductive manner and gets on top of him. No chill, just very straightforward. Something about that just excites Dazai. However, there are times where Dazai also finds enjoyment in seeing Chuuya moaning and whimpering his name while under him. He likes seeing Chuuya taking pleasure as well.

Though, Dazai would only let those he genuinely trusts dom him (aka chuuya).

It's okay to disagree with my take lol, this was mostly written as a small self indulgent rant at 4:30 AM. I saw someone on Twitter have an argument over this discourse and I just wanted to share my thoughts based off the tweet.

If y'all wanna give me your takes about the discourse or head canons I'm open to hearing them! I like seeing different interpretations!

[dax-enfinity]

i hate that ship where you have to give the characters a complete 180 for them to even work on paper, and then you don’t even recognize those characters anymore because the shippers just make the ship the characters only existing trait.

[uzi-x33]

[ratsbanes]

Chuuya and Dazai just before a mission, a very dangerous mission, after a big fight.

Chuuya: Now go scare the shit outta me by dying to hopefully fix whatever problem you have with me.

Dazai: ...

Chuuya: See you later, asshole.

[flamie-42]

mischaracterization rant

took a scroll on twitter (for some reason) and came across a post that was about how Dazai "abuses" Chuuya by using his corruption in the same way Mori abused Yosano's ability..

What the actual fuck?

This is so baffling to me and means someone just cannot do media literacy (bc even in the anime this is far from the truth) or they hate dazai so much they will find any way to shit on him. and idk what is worse

From JUST the anime Dazai never forces Chuuya to use corruption. It ultimately is Chuuya's choice. Do the situations make it so Chuuya is forced to use Corruption, probably. But the point still stands, Dazai cant make Chuuya do shit and he knows that.

For fucks sake in Dead Apple Chuuya literally says "don't stop me" before using corruption. In the guild arc Dazai literally says "so you make the choice".

im sick and tired of this shit

[evilkaeya]

domestic skk

[soukokumychildren]

Chuuya: *slams fist on table* God DAMNIT I’m so gay!

Atsushi: what makes you say that?

Chuuya: *aggressively gestures to his laptop screen* this, damnit. This!!

Atsushi: *peeks over*

Chuuya’s screen: *Shows clip of original universe him collapsing on Dazai’s lap*

Atsushi: THAT OPENLY?

Chuuya: THEY’RE NOT EVEN TRYING.

Atsushi: *gaping mouth*

Chuuya: Honestly it would be less gay to kiss at this rate.

Ranpo: But you’re gay, Chuuya.

Chuuya: *flatly* yes Ranpo thank you

Ranpo: What’s the matter with the original version of you guys getting together?

Chuuya: Because it doesn’t make sense! And because of what *he raises his hand to gesture to quotations with fingers* “people have gathered” they aren’t “cannon”. Essentially neither of them made the first move towards getting together relationship wise. But it’s so obvious! In so many fucking waysPEOPLEAREGODDAMNEDSTUPID. *feathers fluff in anger*

Ranpo: You mean the creator of the univer—

Chuuya *throttles Ranpo in the head with a manifested sandle Asian-style to knock him out*

Atsushi: *Glance of fear* what is going on

Chuuya: I’m angry at stupidity that’s what

Atsushi: *Inhales before drawing out a sigh so long that I ran out of space to typ—*

[stinkypire]

my frustration with the bsd fandom is that their bias hatred towards mori causes them to be stubborn in not analyzing mori's character at all. yes, he has done bad shit, but 80% of the characters has as well. bsd is a morally gray world. they simplify him to "pedo sadist that fiddles children" like just wtf. the sa dazai headcanon and theories spread around and shown in the fics are just so disgusting and triggering. you're taking such an intersting, mysterious, and well written character and painting him as the source of every problem in the BSD universe (basically making him a scapegoat). it's illogical and stupid. you're allowed to dislike characters, just appreciate how well written they are and don't simplify them down/mischaracterize them due to your contempt towards them.
