Ohh babygirl I'm still going batshit insane over the bungou when the dogs are stray

lore accurate teen soukoku. the worsties ever

Taking it as canon that Chuuya listened through one of Dazai's gayass speeches and when a second one came rolling in, decided to shut him up with a bullet instead of being subjected to his dramatics again 😭

It's the "that's what makes me love you!"/"ew no" moment in the fifteen novel all over again

assuming Dazai survives after all this shit (he will) and once all conflicts have settled can you imagine the conversation he and Chuuya would have regarding what happened in Meursault if it ever gets brought up. just like

Chuuya: tf did you mean "moments we did connect", "our fate" and "you and i are destined to" btw Dazai: i never said that you're straight up delusional

vampire chuuya got me thinking...what if... feral?

I feel like we deserve a “Dazai, Chuuya, age Seventeen” light novel as compensation for everything that happened during Meursault.

hey, hey you thought the lab scenes in stormbringer were bad? dw, i've got terminal Evangelion brain, i can make it worse.

it doesn’t fully hit chuuya that he misses dazai until winter hits and the cold that touches his skin feels achingly familiar but still not close enough to the way no longer human would flood his senses with relief whenever dazai used to touch him and he realizes that no cold breeze could ever replicate that feeling or satisfy his restless soul the way the chill of Dazai’s touch could

Just learned about the JP only Dazai's entrance exam card in Mayoi and I'm mad

I love how Kunikida and Dazai are similar in the way that, yeah they both have moral compasses, but good luck figuring out what the hell they actually are

foreigner darling crying while desperately typing into their phone because they don’t any japanese or english, etc. 1) their yandere is a bastard and fucking with them, fully knowing they don’t know the language. 2) the yandere is also struggling and they a dictionary that’s highlighted with translations. 3) the yandere didn’t think this one through and is now acting as if they knew about the barrier. - garfield anon (hello!)

(1) jouno thinks it's funny. here you were, clearly confused and trying your best to communicate with him, but apart from sobs and pleadings of 'please let me go', he can hardly make out your other words. it didn't matter, anyway. this was fine too, you just had to calm down before he could set down some ground rules. he also finds it hilarious when he's talking to you in japanese, knowing you don't understand a single thing, threatening to kill you or your loved ones or telling you about how long he's been watching you and you're just staring at him wide-eyed; isn't that expression far too cute for this?

(1) fyodor wishes you didn't cry so much. if he wanted you to cry in the corner, your phone long abandoned after he had only laughed at your pathetic attempts at trying to talk to him, then he could have done a hundred other things apart from bringing you to a nice room and taking care of you. he understands everything you're saying, of course, but still pretends not to, cocking his head to the side when you ask him why he's done this and glaring at you when you ask his name. it was a little amusing to see you second guess your every word and try to recall any words from any language you knew. only after a month of captivity, when you start, on the brink of losing your mind, telling him about your name and likes and dislikes, he smiles at you, and says "i know", clear as day. the shock on your face is his favorite expression yet.

(2) so maybe chuuya overestimated his linguistic abilities. it was fine! he had dictionaries and the internet just for this. he gets by using the resources on hand, and you're surprisingly pretty well receptive to his attempts, and even point out the words you're saying when he doesn't understand you. things were going a lot better than he thought, until one day you ask him if he can please help you escape and that he can come with you so whoever hired him won't hurt him, you promise to help, and he realizes you had no idea just why you were here. he does consider telling you the truth, but it was a lot nicer to have you trust him and stick by him, so ultimately he decides that can wait. for now, he'll go along with your silly idea.

(2) dazai thought he had all the important words covered, but now you're screaming at him so loudly that he can't comprehend a single word coming out of your mouth. he offers you the dictionary and a pencil, clearly telling you to please circle the words you're using but instead, you throw it back at him and scream some more. not knowing what else to do, he starts speaking to you in gibberish. it works, almost, because you go eerily quiet to listen to him before going back to screaming and throwing things at him (because now it sounds like he's mocking you). oh well, time to sign up for those classes!

(3) nikolai didn't think it'd be this hard to get the message across. surely, using his overcoat to transport you here was enough for you to understand that this was a kidnapping? well, he didn't understand what you were saying either, but he was mostly sure that you said the words 'money', 'who' and 'why' at least thrice now. living together when neither of you understood the other couldn't be that bad, right? he uses pictures of an amusement park and a handy app to ask you if you'd like to go out and that he will drag you back screaming if you tried to run, and the horror on your face is all he needs to know you understood him clear as day. see, not that hard!

15!soukoku: enemies to lovers

22!soukoku: enemies AND lovers

started playing mayoi and i forgot how much i missed them😭

Loving how Dazai and Chuuya keep staring at Nikolai with a slur on the tip of their tongues as if they hadn't been making the most romantic speeches to each other the whole fucking arc

domestic skk where they get engaged and when both of them break the news to their friends, it results in quite different reactions (read: ppl got random beef with Dazai)

[calling Shirase] Chuuya: i have news Shirase: what's up Chuuya: Dazai and I are no longer dating Shirase: are you serious?! RAHHH THANK GODDD Chuuya: ...we're engaged Shirase: oh Chuuya: he's here with me Shirase: ok Chuuya: and you’re on speaker Shirase: oh. my bad Dazai: hi ^-^

[telling Verlaine] Verlaine: my dear brother <3 where's that...boyfriend of yours Chuuya: he's not my boyfriend anymore Verlaine: that's the best news i've heard all year. shall we celebrate Chuuya: he's my fiancé now Verlaine: that's the worst news i've heard all year. why
