That reveal fucking got me, it got me so fucking hard guys!!! It's bringing me out of my writing break, that's how hard it got me!! Anyways here's Bagi being alone, she's coping (cw/tw: implied mental health issues/violence, mentioned gore):

It was getting real late, and Bagi was only now just returning to her small apartment. She couldn't stand it, being alone, so she spent all her time at work. Work being the small private investigators that hired her after she lied her ass off about her age and experience. She was using them, really. If she rose up the ranks, then she could lie about needing to go to that prison. Then, she could finally complete her plan. She's been dreaming of that day for years.

Bagi's apartment is mostly bare. Aside from a TV and DVD player (that cost most of two paychecks), the table they sit on, and a couch with a blanket and a few pillows. Her kitchen is a bit nicer, but not by much. She had stolen most of the nicer things. Like her knife set. It had been a hassle, but she managed. She walked through the kitchen, not grabbing any food but instead grabbing one of the knives. Bagi isn't hungry right now. She hasn't felt hungry in years. She eats to survive. She wonders vaguely if her coworkers noticed. It didn't matter. They haven't noticed anything yet. Not how she lies through her teeth, not how she steals most everything she owns, not how her clothes look two sizes too big even if they're supposed to be her exact size, nothing. They don't even notice when she stares a bit too long at crime-scene photos.

Her sat on her couch and turned on the TV. It was left on the main menu of a documentary DVD. This documentary was about her brother and every gorey detail of his list of crimes. She couldn't care less, that's her brother and she loves him all the same. Her brother. Her other half. Her brother, Cellbit. Bagi and Cellbit, attached at the hip. Twins, forever and always. She holds the knife in her hand. She wonders if she could do what he's done. She doesn't care if she goes to hell, as long as she goes to hell with him. They share the same face, the same eyes. Is it mom or dad's face they share? Are her teeth as sharp as his? Bagi doesn't eat meat. She'll never know. When the documentary ends, Bagi wipes tears from her eyes. She didn't even know she was crying. She does this a lot.

After a few deep breaths, she tries to keep her composure. She can't be crying. The investigation isn't over yet. It's not over until she's face to face with him again. She can't cry yet. The documentary is finished. She'll change the channel back for now and turn it back when she goes to sleep. For now, the news. She regrets her decision almost immediately. A breaking news story about multiple escaped convicts. They show the mugshots. One is her brother. No. They're fucking lying, this is some big fucking joke.

Bagi barely suppresses a scream as she throws the knife she's holding into the wall just above her TV. No fucking way Cellbit is leaving behind again! He couldn't fucking wait for her this one time. She was going to save him! She just fucking found him again! Her rage buzzes under her skin. She can't stay here tonight. She's going back to work. Bagi can already feel her phone vibrate, them begging her to return. This case will big a break for them. It'll be her magnum opus. She grabs the knife from where it stuck in the wall and stuffs it into her bag. She can't fucking believe it. Cellbit forgot about her, again. She'll deal with it when she finds him.

I still remember back when I just finished s1 of bsd and know nothing about Fyodor and Nikolai.

I thought Fyodor looks really like Dazai,

And can tell just by looking at Nikolai’s face that he’s real bad news

These are the two pic I saw on YouTube right after watching S1

Okay crew. I have three hours to get out of my apartment and get going to my parents' house. I don't have to pack my mattress or get rid of my furniture anymore because my strong af girlfriend helped me take care of it. I just have to fit what I can into my van (not a lot) and abandon the rest. Then drive four hours. Wish me luck. I'll need it.

Li'l author spotlight for all a' you'se tonight, bc I've been bingeing a bunch of their works page on AO3 and everything they've ever written is gold. Okay? Okay. Let's give it up for AO3 author ApprenticeOfDoyle:

The main fic I wanna gush about is pressure (pushing down on me), which is more or less a pathos-riddled retelling of the trilogy up until it veers hard into canon divergence--of a distinctly NaruMitsu flavor, of course. By the time the events of AA4 roll up, Phoenix has a much more prepared (and present) support network, which is just so satisfying and wonderful and ugh. Even after that point, however, it follows the outline of the canon cases closely enough that it turns into an almost 'what-if' style of fic, where the only major difference is that the Phoenix, Maya, Pearl, and Miles (and later Trucy) are all one big happy, adorable, inseparable family.

And like, that'd be enough for me already--I LOVE canon retellings, especially ones that are different in just small ways like this. But this fic also just feels so good to READ. I think in my comment on the fic I described it as "crystallized catharsis", and I stand by that. Phoenix CRIES in this fic, and he does it a LOT, and Maya and Miles and everyone else around him all cry, too, and it is AMAZING. If the author's main goal with this fic was to expand on all the moments in the games that made you think "oh wow, that was effed up, I bet the characters are effed up about what just happened", then they SUCCEEDED.

God and don't get me started on how much appreciation this author has for the Feys, or for Phoenix's sibling bond with them, or for all the trauma these characters have experienced to be given some damn breathing room so they can help each other heal...

Guh. Anyway. The fic is great. If you like it when characters cry a lot and hug a lot and talk about their feelings, this is the fic to read.

(And if you'll allow me to gush just a second longer: the first fic in the series covers from right after Dahlia's trial to the disbarment [and, spoilers: Kristoph's early defeat]. Then, there are SEQUELS, one focusing on Trucy and her adoption, and another focusing more on Apollo in this universe's version of AA4. Both are WIPs but I am salivating over both of them waiting for more, they are SO GOOD. HhhhHHHHNNNGH FAMILY!!!!)

And THEN!!!

Not part of the same 'verse as the aforementioned series (though I think it could work as a part of it no problem): a whole damn fic just retelling the events of the first Investigations game...... but if Miles and Phoenix were happily dating. It's essentially just AAI1 but Phoenix is there to freak out and give Miles hugs after all the terrible things happen lmao. It's delightful and also treats all the panic attacks and kidnapping etc with the gravity and emotion that the game failed to deliver, meaning it's an automatic win in my book. Just let them be mushy sappy boyfriends who offer comfort at each other's time of need.

And finally, because even this author's little smutty oneshots are brilliant, here's a short post-JFA get-together fic with very sweet, heartfelt dialogue, and here's a VERY funny comedy about everyone mistaking a bruise on Phoenix's neck for a hickey (and, as the tags say, Miles getting "a little bit Genghis Khan"). Delightful, delightful, delightful.

I'll stop now bc this post is too long already, but this rec has been ready to burst out of me for almost a week now and I had to write it out. Now go give these fics some love 🌻

feddy movie

[the-kipsabian]

first, saw the tags on the reblog. what if it's like a trick to lure someone to the belt, giving them this small taste of power or at least put into their imagination what sort of power they would have if they held the belt? either to lure in a new host or someone to break the current host down further? idk. just woke up from a nap and have no idea if that makes sense.

second, thoughts on a vampire AU fic with orangekip… but orange is the vampire and bites/feeds off of kip? something i'm considering adding to my wip list once i work out plot details

i was gonna go to bed but i have to write this down cause i will forget bUT ITS A SIREN CALL. THE BELT HAS A SIREN CALL. it will promise you the things you want beyond your wildest dreams and it differs for each holder (if we include pac, its the spot in history as the first ever holder and defender on non-us soil, for kip it promises obviously power and prestige beyond believe like he wont be underrated anymore, and with oc its about people taking him seriously finally and him actually having gold and what is reflected as good career marks in the company)

bruh im always down for a vampire au 👀 i have some thoughts but if you have ideas im not gonna throw them down right now in case i mess your ideas up lol, but yeah yell at me any time you work something out tho!!
