I just want you all to know, that if and when this site does experience a real exodus and/or get sunsetted for good, even if we don't keep in touch I'll remember you so fondly. You're the online equivalent of the other kid on the beach where we built sandcastles together; the girl at the campsite where we explored the trees. You're the drunk person who shared kind words in the bathroom at the club, you're the talented artists at the life drawing class or the poetry night in a city where I don't live anymore. It makes me sad that maybe in the future our paths won't cross so easily, but even when we leave this little shared piece of cyberspace, carried away on our briefly intersecting trajectories, just know I still love you

Dazai’s morality and what makes him different from other “morally gray” characters

Everyone knows that Dazai is morally gray - but I only recently realized how he’s different from other “morally gray” characters we often see in fiction.

Most of the time, those characters we conveniently label “morally gray” don’t even deserve the title - they’re just good people who had done a few bad things, or bad people who had done a few good things. But Dazai is truly in the middle - he has done too many bad things to be good, but too many good things to be bad.

He’s abusive, manipulative, ruthless, and made life a living hell for Akutagawa. And yet-

He was Atsushi’s savior - giving him a home when nobody else would accept him. Although this still isn’t enough to forgive him for what he did to Akutagawa, it still proves that he isn’t fully a bad person.

Now, here’s when things start to get more interesting. Most morally gray characters tend to switch back and forth between two sides, right? Lots of writers depict them doing kind things more often while on the “good side”, and doing cruel actions more often while on the “bad side”.

But that's not the case with Dazai.

Dark Era Dazai was terrifying - he shot innocent people, manipulated his subordinates, abused people, and many more. But he was still good, in his own way. He helped Chuuya cut ties with the Sheep, who were obviously using him for his powerful ability, despite having only met him for a day. He genuinely cared for Odasaku, willing to risk his own life to save his friend.

In the ADA, he seemed more compassionate. He gave Atsushi a home and cared for all the members of the ADA. But although it’s subtle, he was still evil. It’s more obvious in the manga - since the anime tends to focus on his humor and suicidal tendencies more. Take a look at this manga panel :

Although it’s implied, it’s clear what he did - he slept with the nurse only to obtain information. He manipulated an innocent woman without hesitation, as if it’s a daily habit. No other ADA member would have the heart to do this, even if it meant saving the world or whatsoever. And let’s not forget this anime moment that made all Aku stans’ blood boil :

Yes, Dazai didn’t directly abuse Aku anymore after being in the ADA. But if he was truly a good person, he wouldn’t have taken advantage of Aku’s emotions, thinking that he had every right to control him. He would have acknowledged Aku and sincerely apologized for abusing him.

No matter what your argument is, you can’t deny that Dazai doesn’t have a trace of his PM tendencies left in him even after transferring into the ADA. That’s the depth about Dazai’s gray morality - no matter which side he’s on, he'd always do an equal amount of good and bad things.

Alright, last point, I promise. I’ve seen lots of people think that Dazai underwent his "redemption arc” in the Dark Era, when Oda died, just because Dark Era and ADA him are opposites. But now that I think of it, his moralities never even changed. He never had a redemption arc. His way of viewing people and the world are still more or less the same. The only reason Dark Era and ADA Dazai are different is because he changed his mannerisms, and obtained more will to live.

“Oh, then why did he join the agency?”

Because he wanted to honor his best friend’s dying wish. He still doesn’t care about “good” or “bad”. Even Oda knew this - that’s why he said this line to Dazai:

I’d like to believe that a part of Dazai's kind actions are genuine, but you cannot tell me that this man, who didn’t give a f*ck about shooting innocent people, is unconditionally kind all the time. We can never guess what’s going on in his head, but I’m sure that he sometimes puts up a facade of being kind, in hopes that one day, it’ll become real.

Now, you’ll notice that most morally gray characters undergo a meaningful redemption arc before joining the good guys - which implies that the writers think only post-redemption them belonged in the good side - that pre-redemption them will never be able to become “good”.

But Dazai?

He joined the agency without undergoing a redemption arc and still passed the entrance exam.

You see what this means?

From the start, Dazai already had the potential of becoming both "good" and "evil". He would have fit in either organizations perfectly. Mori just happened to find him first. It’s just the matter of timing.

Dazai’s morality is truly in the middle.

Rise Raph and Leo

person who takes the majority of hits for their team, not because they're necessarily more durable than the rest of them, but because they think they deserve it more

#lostidiot🪻#I know Raph is stronger but he definitely thinks he deserves it😭#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles

🪐Unknown Lands🔭

Various x reader (Eventually)

/——/——/——/——/——/——/——/——/——/

Warmth covered your body as the feeling of weightlessness made you gain consciousness. Your blinking eyes tried to adjust to the bright light, but ultimately failed as you raised a hand to shield them. You groaned at the pain but quickly gasped when the reality of your situation came to you. The light didn’t matter anymore as you took in your surroundings. You were floating in mid air, but you weren’t in the sky. You were in another plane of existence.

The warmth started to collect at your feet and you adjusted yourself to where you were floating straight up. Waves of comfortable heat spread up your legs, imitating ocean waves. Some feeling in the back of your mind told you to turn around, and you did.

Everything went dark. Not as in loss of consciousness but all the light was gone and floating in front of you was the most beautiful being that ever existed. You didn’t know her name but from the very moment you set your eyes on her, you knew that she was there to guide you. Her figure was made up of a swirl of many colors while her eyes were pitch black with white dots. Stars. Was this the universe? Without a word, she gently set you on her large hand and held you near a wooden door. One last glance at her face showed you that she was leading you to a new life. A new home. Without a single word, you floated through the door and walked out of the darkness, into the new light.

When you came too, you were on the ground. Your knees and palms had dirt on them as you looked up at the view in front of you. You were home. You were finally where you belong.

/——/——/——/——/——/——/——/——/——/

(PLEASE READ) A/N: I’m thinking of making this a dimension traveling thing. Like an Isekai but with A LOT of different universes. Tell me which on you want first! (Any from my Fandom list, preferably the ones I know best.)

The reader will also be considered 18 in these stories! NO NSFW but I want to keep a consistent age within all the stories. I don’t like aging characters up really but it’s necessary for this story to make sense and not be confusing. Ages are below…

(YOU BEING 18 ISNT WEIRD BECAUSE YOU ARE IN YOUR LAST YEAR OF HIGH SCHOOL IN SOME OF THESE AND JUST TURNED 18 IN ALL IF THE UNIVERSES.)

ROTTMNT: Mikey will be 17. Ages go up from there.

Batman/DC: Damian will also 17.

Ninjago: Lloyd will be 18 and Cole will be 21. Everyone else (-Wu) will be in between that. (I don’t know their canon ages or if Cole is even the oldest Ninja, it might be Zane but he’s just gonna forever be 20 for now)

Haikyuu: Since I don’t want to age some of them up cause it’ll mess with everyone else’s ages, I will only be writing romance for the third and second years (you are a third year) BUT there will be close platonic relationships with the 1st years.

2012 Tmnt: All 18

Bayverse Tmnt: All 20

IF A FANDOM IN THE TAGS ISN'T HERE, EITHER THE AGES ARE THE SAME OR I HAVE TO SPECIFY IN THE ACTUAL WRITING POST

I LOVE THIS AU SO MUCH AJSBBDDBNS

I've wanted to create an "official poster" of sorts for the AU for a while now, but the fact that I still haven't come up with a good name for the for it has kinda just led me to procrasinate on it lol.

But considering the AU made it into the @tmntaucompetition and you're supposed to make propaganda for it or something I figured I should stop being lazy and actually draw something haha

So uhhhh if I make it through the preliminary rounds I'll promise to at least try to come up with a proper name?? ....Eventually. So ya'll better vote for my AU otherwise you'll be stuck with this shitty placeholder name for all of eternity!!!!

Death is more peaceful then what we percieve it as.

Life is finally coming to an end after the struggle that is living.

Our bodies return to their rightful place among the dirt, continuing the cycle of rebirth.

Plants emerge and flowers bloom as they thank the being for their kindness.

Even as your body has been given back to the ground, you have a purpose.

No ones life is ever meaningless.

Even if no human finds a purpose in you,

The earth will.

Hello sorry to bother you with this all of sudden ,and this might be coming out of nowhere, and I’m not trying to force you or be pushy but I m trying to get more people into this show with great potential. If your not interested it’s fine but Have you heard of or watched moon girl and devil dinosaur? Season 2 premier happened

The main character i love she gives me autistic vibes I’m autistic. The show has interesting characters, action ,great music, and animation ,good themes and representation, Anime references, plenty of Sailor Moon references too it even has an eyecatch season 2 is going to be more story driven if you find that interesting. It also shares the same animation studio as rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles.

It be good if you watch the season 2 episodes when they air so the ratings will be higher.

I think Disney might be trying to sabotage the show with them probably dropping 14 episodes on Disney + on February 3 which has passed. They did similar with season 1 and the ratings where low ,please watch season 2 episodes when they air on. But more importantly also watch it on Disney + in February and when they air it on YouTube. Unfortunately they are dropping 14 episodes on Disney + so watch them all in one day but also when they air the first time.

I’m not just saying only cable just also. I’m saying please support this show. Despite that it still won 5 Emmys. Also if it’s no trouble could if it alright with you spread the word about this show to others you know like either online or irl. Time is limited!

I literally wrote everything for this post but my phone died so I have to re do it😭

I LOVE how it looks already! The representation shown in just the poster makes me really happy. I’m also on the autistic spectrum so I already know I’m gonna probably relate the the MC. She looks kinda like she is similar to Rise Donnie because of the mad scientist vibes.

The animation studio for ROTTMNT is so amazing omg. They also made Lego Monkie Kid! If you haven’t watched that then I think you should check it out!

I’ll definitely check this show out because it looks really good! I love Marvel and that representation in the poster just makes me love it even more. Thanks for sharing this with me!

Hello. I saw that you were writing for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and I have an idea. Donny Rice with a reader who loves to dance. And on one of these occasions, Don sees them dancing and so does the reader. However, they invite the turtle to dance while playing the song "Bad Romance"

HELLO!!!!! Sorry this is soooo late, I kinda lost motivation but it’s back now!

Rise Donnie x Gender Neutral!Dancer!Reader

Song: Bad Romance by Lady Gaga (or the cover by Halestorm)

A/N: I decided to do it in headcanon form since I’m trying to get back into writing but I might make an actual one shot later.

Warnings(?): lowercase intended, you have your own apartment but you and Donnie aren’t aged up so just pretend like that makes sense(I don’t age up the turtles unless it’s future/college)

you LOVED to dance.

letting your body move freely always felt good after a long day.

that was one of the things that made Donnie love you.

it was after a long shift at work that you were in the kitchen cooking.

Donnie was coming over because he wanted to show you some cool invention he made but he also forgot to tell you he was coming over.

you were blasting Lady Gaga while you were cooking dinner so you couldn’t hear the window slide open.

Donnie looked up and saw you dancing by the stove

he didn’t expect this AT ALL

with a twirl, you spun around and sung along, using the spatula as a make shift microphone.

you hit the high note of course but as you opened your eyes, you froze in the middle of a dance move.

you were kinda just….

💃 🕺

(I’m so mad that they don’t have a gender neutral dancing emoji😭)

as he stood there, confused.

after a couple of seconds, you walked over and grabbed his hand.

Donnie dropped the invention he was holding but didn’t care as it hit the wooden floors.

with his hand in yours, you both danced and spun to the music.

the moonlight shined through the window he came through as your body moved freely.

Donnie couldn’t help but stare at you when you laughed and spun with him in your kitchen.

his gaze was warm and loving as your hands stayed together.

He knew that it didn’t matter if he recorded this or not.

because this was a memory that would stay with him for years to come.
