Rooted in my mind

dazai: you know that i would live for you, right?

Concept: I love the idea that Atsushi has a lot medial knowledge because of Shibusawa.
But that the majority of it is just outdated medical malpractice.
Because let’s be real here Atsushi was tortured and nothing he went through followed any kind of ethics.
But he doesn’t know that and he’s so well meaning about it.
Which kinda makes it all the more concerning when Atsushi politely asks if Kunikida if can borrow a taser because he has a headache.
Yosano takes him under her wing and is determined to teach him basic first aid among other things.
She gently but firmly tries to usher Atsushi away from his more… archaic views on healthcare.
They all have to grit their teeth and smile when Atsushi learns what a painkiller is. And remarks wow that’s so much easier than knocking myself out and hoping for the best.
Yosano tells herself the next time Mori tries anything she’s going to make him listen to Atsushi not know that what disinfecting wounds means.
The man may be the worst but he’s a professional doctor and it would break his mind.

Concept:
Kunikida helps Atsushi up as they conclude their training for the day.
Kunikida: Your footwork could use some work. Though you should be proud your control over your ability had improved a lot.
Atsushi: Yeah…that’s great..
Kunikida: What’s the matter with you?
Atsushi: Nothing.
Kunikida: Is it Dazai? Has Dazai been making you run around on those stupid errands again?
Atsushi: No, well yes but no it’s not that. It’s nothing important.
Kunikida: If it’s concerns a member of the Agency than it is important to me.
Atsushi: We’ll be late if we don’t go now…
Kunikida: I can allow 5 minutes out of my schedule for this. Now spill.
Atsushi: I don’t want to get better at controlling my ability.
Kunikida: Why ever not?
Atsushi: Because then you guys won’t want me anymore!
Kunikida:…
Atsushi: You took me in because I was a rampaging monster. The presidents ability keeps me in check so if I gain control now…you won’t need me here.
Kunikida:…You’re serious you seriously believe that?! You think we only keep you around because of your ability?!
Atsushi: You…don’t?
Kunikida: Atsushi! You…yes you were bought in partially because of your lack of control. But that’s not the main reason, you know what Dazai told the president?
Atsushi: What?
Kunikida: That you needed a home. That you were scared, practically skin and bone and you needed a home. And the Agency was the home you needed.
Atsushi: Oh…
Kunikida: And I’ll be honest I had my reservations.
Atsushi: Of course you did
Kunikida: That were extinguished the moment I watched you hug a fake bomb to save a group of strangers.
Kunikida: You passed and that makes you one of us and there’s no take backs on that.
Atsushi: It does?
Kunikida: Even…even if you left the Agency to pursue other dreams of yours. You would always be one of us and would always have our support wherever you needed it.
Atsushi: Like Katai?
Kunikida: Exactly, why…why can’t you accept that we want you here. Is it something we’ve done? Have we made you feel unwelcome in any way?
Atsushi: No! No you’ve all been so kind to me but that’s exactly it.
Kunikida: I’m afraid I don’t understand.
Atsushi: My parents left me in a bin bag on the side of the road. The orphanage told me my existence was a chore abd then they kicked me out.
Kunikida: Atsushi…
Atsushi: You want me when no one ever has. And I just keep waiting for the other shoe to drop and I-
He’s stunned into silence when Kunikida pulls him into a hug.
Atsushi: Kunikida?
Kunikida: I swear upon my very credibility as a member of the Armed Detective Agency. Upon my ideals and my soul that we will never abandon you when you need the most.
He’s surprised when he feels his shoulder get damp before gently rubbing Atsushi’s back as he cries.
Kunikida: And we’ll spend every day for the rest of our lives making sure you know that if we must.
His own eyes begin to water as he hugs Atsushi close.
