Guys they’re all safe and sound and happy trust

[karmicpunishment]

okay au where the first thing yosano does after being saved by ranpo and fukuzawa (and doing some healing) is go find shunzens little brother. she doesn't have much to go off of, but she feels she owes it to him (and to herself) to get some closure in this way.

she plans to go, tell the family the story and how much he cared about them, and what his last messages were, and accept any hate they had for her before leaving. whatever they say to her, she feels she deserves it.

except...

when she goes to the address, she doesn't find a grieving family, but instead a young boy being yelled at and shoved out the door, the people inside not caring that he landed harshly on his back, or that he wore no coat in the cold weather. when he lifts his head, she knows, this is her soldier's little brother. They have the same dark hair and gold eyes, though over a decade difference in age.

he doesn't even look surprised at the shut door, just resigned. she feels so suddenly angry, a deep feeling in a way she hasn't been able to feel since before she was taken to the front. she has to do something. she has to help him.

maybe this is how she can find her forgiveness, fix her sins.

"tachihara-kun?" she speaks. The boy whips his head around, nearly falling back onto the sidewalk with the movement. he's so young.

"who are you?" he asks, looking not quite scared or trying to hide it at least.

"my name is yosano akiko. i knew your brother." she took a deep breath and tried to remember how to smile. "would you like to go somewhere warm?"

---

and then yosano and michizo bond and she basically adopts him as her little brother and he studies medical arts to be like her and eventually joins the ADA <3

I don't know what I'm doing anymore but here is my personal take on the mori affect/abuse web/abuse cycle

[imsosleepyofyourbull]

I don’t think I’ll ever stop talking about Tachihara and how important his identity crisis is to me.

He spent so long under the shadow of an older brother he only really knew by the way everyone told him they were too similar and yet nothing alike, and when he tried to break free he ended up in the exact same place that Shunzen and Yosano did. Stuck in the military holding up ideals that are too big for their bodies. Fukuchi straight up made him choose between prison/death and medical malpractice when he was fifteen at the oldest, probably fourteen. And then when he finally found a home where everybody who loved him actually loved him, he was lying to them the entire time! He probably went into that final battle with the expectation that, if he even lived, they would never look at him the same.

But it’s so heavily implied that they knew what he did and kept loving him anyway! Hirotsu straight up said, “Whoever did this made sure they didn’t kill us.”

He told Tachihara that if he was Port Mafia then he’d know what to do, and he did it!

And it’s such a perfect mirror to Yosano. They’re both tied to Shunzen in irreversible ways, defined by his life and death and finding homes in people who never really cared about the dead man or how he was connected to their person outside of its effects on them. The ADA and the Port Mafia are both places that the two of them were willing to die to see survive, and they only ever faltered in each other’s presence BECAUSE of their connection. Yosano thought Tachihara had the right to kill her for what she did and the way she took the right of death away from Shunzen, but Tachihara always knew that it wasn’t really her fault and couldn’t kill her over it even thought he spent so long thinking about it.

The ADA never wanted Yosano for her ability the same way the Black Lizard never wanted Tachihara for Shunzen. They’re just so GDJHDJDHDKHFKFHDJHF!!!!

I really hope Asagiri continues this plot point and doesn’t desert in order to keep hyping up Dazai. I understand that he’s smart and cool and his character is interesting too, but it’s exhausting to constantly have every intelligent thing everyone else does ascribed to Dazai or Fyodor “knowing that would happen” or “trusting them to act like they thought.” Higuchi’s ability still hasn’t been revealed, Tachihara is still dead or missing (as is Jouno), Teruko just disappeared, and Akutagawa is still a vampire???? God knows where Gin and Hirotsu are. I just want Yosano and Tachihara to make up and for Tachihara to get more fanfic pretty please…

Shunzen tachihara, Doing a handstand

There was an attempt

[starfocks]

tachihara is slowly becoming his brother this is so sad

part of the military (unwillingly) -> enlisted, forcefully joined

keeps getting healed of injuries -> yosano, hd surgery improvement

keeps getting sent out over and over again whether he likes it or not -> war, missions

mori is his boss LMAO -> mori, mori

boss probably does not care about his well-being -> mori, mori (sent him against fukuchi)

[kayarata]

More fem!Tachihara cuz she's infesting my mind

[bubblesxo]

tachihara hc

you know how he was put under so much pressure to be just like his older brother when he was growing up? well, once he was gone, the abuse and pressure of that eventually led him to develop an ability similar to his, or even a derivative of the same ability, according to the official Wiki page, which says:

"Similar to his younger brother's ability, Shunzen had the ability Midwinter Memento (真ま冬ふゆのかたみ, Mafuyu no Katami?),[3] which initially allowed him to produce items made of metal from between the pages of a book."

therefore, i headcanon that not only others, but also tachi himself at one point put himself under so much pressure that his body's/soul's way of alleviating this and helping him survive is to take on the same form as his brother

I finally made The Shunzen Playlist

I will try to update this with time and new submissions. Features a lot of japanese songs bcs that's what i listen to the most.

"Why are a lot of the songs not war related?" He's more than just a soldier, that's kinda the goal of my playlist.

Feel free to submit

Yosano backstory ig

[karmicpunishment]

forever cursing studio bones for cutting this section from the anime

how am i ever supposed to get over this?? the ONE panel we have of any of tachihara's family other than shunzen and its them wishing he had died instead of his brother (who died when he was FIVE)

the "this is all you can do" also makes me wonder what his family was talking about specifically? is it referring to something general (grades, attitude, accolades, etc) or is it about his ability, since his brother had a very similar one (maybe the same one). seems like they were trying to get him to do something...
