    Summary

    from S2E9:

    “Do you still wear the coat that I gave you?”
    “I burned it.”

    They’re the wrong words to say.

     

    Mori’s abuse runs deep—deeper than anyone, including Dazai, had realized. And he’s doing it all over again.

    Summary

    He's been sick for weeks when he finally gives in and goes to a free clinic.

    If it weren't for his promise to Odasaku, he wouldn't have bothered. Dazai would have just allowed whatever mysterious illness he had to kill him.

    But he promised Oda he'd be better, and he hasn't done that yet.

    Maybe it's cancer, he thinks. The symptoms technically fit.

    (Spoiler: It's Not.)

    Summary

    Dazai Osamu is a recent college graduate with no direction who makes one last attempt at living by opening a café. And he's convinced he'll never have another reason to live, at least until a random encounter makes him give his own life another chance.

    Or, the Bungou Stray Dogs Soukoku Café AU that absolutely nobody asked for and I'm writing anyway.

    Summary

    With a loud pop, the light disappeared and Atsushi rushed forth screaming “Dazai-san!”

    He didn’t expect to meet one cold amber eye, almost red in the light, and the barrel of a gun pointed at his forehead.

    The man, no boy. He couldn’t be older than Atsushi himself stared back at him. The familiar bandages wove around his eye obscuring more of the boy’s body than Atsushi was used to. A grin was placed on his lips, and Atsushi noticed how similar he was dressed to a certain man with an unfortunate haircut. An all-black suit with a clearly oversized jacket hung off the boy's slim frame.

    “Well, well, who do we have here? Tora? How cute,” the boy sang.

    How will the ADA deal with Dark Era Dazai? Planning this to be a longer fic so get your popcorn ready

    Summary

    Gazing down into those blank, empty blue eyes, Dazai felt something shatter inside him. And in the wake of the destruction, the emptiness, he was flooded by sudden, ice-cold clarity.
    It wasn't okay. But it would be.
    He would make it okay.

    [Or, something unthinkable happens, and Dazai goes more than a little feral in his attempt to reverse it.]

    Summary

    Chuuya looks up at the omega currently leaning against the brick wall, his mouth set in a thin line. "Why the hell would you allow those jerks to treat you like that?"

    Dazai smirks down at the short, angry alpha. "Like what, Chibi?" he asks before he continues "Like a slu-"

    The omega jumps a little when the alpha's palm smacks loudly against wall, before he snarls out.

    "Like you don't matter!"

    Dazai stares at the alpha in stunned silence because... the way he said it, it's like...

    Like actually believes that.

    That Dazai, of all people, matters.

    Summary

    Chuuya smiled at Dazai, the edges of his lips curling up. He had that mouth shape that Dazai found really hot, fuller in the centre and more quirked at the edges. Dazai spent a moment appraising his face. When Chuuya was younger he was probably stunningly beautiful, effortlessly so. Even now Chuuya was gorgeous, someone you'd look at twice.
    --
    Dazai's flunking Chuuya's class.

    There's only one thing for it.

    (Age gap AU, university AU).

    Summary

    "I'm dead." Ryuunoske said stoically.

    Chuuya faltered, breath catching in his throat as he extended a finger just to drop it midair. "I'm sorry, you're WHAT?"

    "Dead. That's why your fist went through me. I kind of figured that part was obvious."

     
    __

     

    After Chuuya’s brother returns as a ghost and begs him to bring him back to life, Chuuya has no choice but to enter the infamous labyrinth with a rather annoying peer wrapped in bandages.

    Chuuya is determined to save his brother—that is, if he and Dazai don’t kill each other first.

    Summary

    It's been fifteen years since Dazai was given into Mori's questionable care.
    Eleven since Chuuya joined the Port Mafia.
    In that time, they've killed together, tortured together, fallen in love, split apart, and come back together, stronger than ever. In that time, they've both come closer to the light than either had ever thought possible.
    But, no matter how far one runs from it, the past is never truly gone. And when Mori brings up Chuuya's in a way that neither of them can forgive, well...
    It's time to end this.

    Summary

    He should’ve died. He knew it even then. He didn’t eat. He didn’t sleep. He didn’t move. But still he lived, as if Odasaku’s ghost was there pushing the life he’d let go of into Dazai’s veins.

    Summary

    BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND!

    “I’m not leaving, asshole. Let me see,” Chuuya said, crouching in front of him. Instead of reassuring him, it only made Dazai feel more trapped. He was in the corner, far away from the door and Chuuya blocked his only path. Even if he could make it past, he would see.

    When Chuuya stretched out his hand to pull the coat away, Dazai did the only thing he knew to do. What Mori had trained him like a dog to do.

    Bite.

    This series was a couple of continuous one-shots that I'll be posting here, with a couple of new chapters to warrant reposting as one continuous fic with chapters.

    Summary

    "We don’t need to kill,” Fukuzawa said over the com, ever calm, and Dazai heard it in his earpiece, the surety. Ranpo had a way out. Fukuzawa would have allowed it if there was no other way. 

    “Osamu. Shoot.” Mori’s voice crackled through and it was silence and screaming all at once—a sound he had not heard in an age. That tone, the initiation. He didn’t even breathe as his muscle twitched and fired. There’d been a head there a moment before. Now he was just looking into a skull, shattered into a million pieces. 

    The blood dripped down his cheek and it was so familiar, so crushingly familiar, that seeing out of both eyes was dizzying.

    Summary

    Then his hand was against his cheek and Dazai could hear bells in his ears. 

    “You’re so empty today I can’t even see the bottom,” Fyodor purred, the sound sending shivers down Dazai’s spine. “I bet you’ve been thinking about slicing your veins wrist to elbow all day."

    A gloved fist slammed on the table, he distantly saw him jerk Fyodor’s hand off of him.

    “What the fuck is your problem?” Chuuya bit out.

    Summary

    "Dazai."

    "Hmm?" A pair of eyes flicked up in response, uninterested despite the grave tone of the tall blonde before him. Kunikida was always too serious after all. Said blonde straightened, clutching a manila folder in his hands, brows creased and eyes cold. "What is the nature of your relationship with Port Mafia Executive, Nakahara Chuuya?"

    Oh.

    They weren't supposed to find out. Not now, not this soon, possibly not ever.

    Summary

    He didn’t even see Dazai rip the gun from Kenji’s hands, just the surprised gasp. 

    Oh fuck. Chuuya thought as he saw those eyes narrow familiarly. He thought he could see Akutagawa’s tremble from here. 

    “I’ve been very patient,” Dazai said as he trained the gun on the two of them. Atsushi’s eyes were wide as the first bullet, like thunder in the clearing, headed toward his head. Akutagawa was there in a second, eating the space. 

    “I’ve even been nice, but you aren’t learning.”

    Dazai loses his temper in a joint training session.

    Summary

    “No fucking suicidal ideation right now.” He spat. Dazai blinked up at his with those big chocolate eyes, sending waves of irritation down Chuuya’s body.

    “Aww, and here I was thinking it would make such a good story.”

    “What the fuck did I expect.” At this point, Dazai was weighing the possibilities. Atsushi and the others didn’t need either of them to get the children to Ango. The Port Mafia side would already be collecting the drugs from other warehouses and taking care of the stragglers.

    He tipped forward on his toes, crashing his lips into the spirited man’s. He felt Chuuya tense and, a few seconds later, a punch crushed his jaw. The pain blossomed, like a low throb in the back of his head. There was blood on his lips either from where the little shrimp had bitten him or the cut on the inside of his cheek.

    It didn't matter. Dazai would get him back.

    Yes, its bodyswap soukoku. Yes, expect angst, fun, and an emotional bender between Dazai and Chuuya as they come to find each other again.

    Summary

    “Well, I have to warn you beforehand,” the white-haired man stammered as he nervously began to play with his fingers, “and I don't even really know how to explain this to you, because I have absolutely no explanation for... well... this - he was like this when I found him ...”

    Now Chuuya was a little worried, but before he really had the time to worry about what to do with this new, albeit vague, information, they stopped in front of one of the few tables in the bistro area.
    At first glance the Mafioso didn't notice anything unusual - a completely normal table with two plates, on one of them was a piece of melon pan, on the other he saw something that looked like anpan with a piece of strawberry cake. This combination made Chuuya raise an eyebrow a little, but he refrained from any commentary. For now. But what caught his eye made him pause.

    “You're kidding me, aren't you?”
    -
    When Dazai mysteriously gets turned into a child again, it's up to Chuuya to take care of him. Though, that's more difficult than he expected it to be.
