I Love The Idea Of As Akutagawa Gets More Into The Light The More Atsushi Falls Into Darkness.

me impatiently to the little french cat boiling me in a stew: chat am I cooked

i don’t think people who don’t read comics/mostly read wfa understand how much of a dweeb tim drake actually is because he was supposed to be a Good Role Model For Tween Boys in the 90s. one time he found out his roommate at boarding school was an alcoholic so he poured all his alcohol down the drain instead of just ignoring it like a normal person. his girlfriend wanted to have sex with him and instead of just saying “i’m not ready” he launched into a monologue about how “making love is like opening a door” and he “isn’t ready to open that door yet” because they “might have adult feelings for each other, but [they’re] still just kids.” 90s tim was the type of kid to remind the teacher to assign homework. he somehow got mad bitches even though everyone highkey thought he was weird. in one panel of one issue he randomly said he had to be “vewwy quiet” and never spoke like that again. he canonically plays dungeons and dragons (or the fictional dc equivalent). the money his dad left him after he died wasn’t even a lot because his dad went bankrupt shortly before his death. like it was a substantial amount but not enough to make him rich. i cannot stress enough that tim was SUCH a Regular Guy TM and constantly worried about not standing out. he purposefully did bad at sports and pretended to be winded in gym class so people wouldn’t suspect anything. like he wouldn’t even try and be average, he would purposefully almost fail. he is not a cool rich skater kid guys he’s such a dork

Fanfic idea- Yokai Au kitsune DazAtsu 

Note: This was inspired by @venelona 's recent Kitsune Dazai craze which I love dearly. Seriously so many people have been drawing cute DazAtsu art with Kitsune Dazai! It's hard to not be inspired by so much beautiful ship art! XD

Anyways back to my ramblings lol

--------------------------

Prompt: Dazai loves his human

Actual idea- 

(So for context this idea is placed in Edo Japan where humans hate Yokai and have a huge prejudice against anyone who they believe could be related to a yokai.)

Dazai is a 900 year old nine tailed Kitsune who is quite frankly bored with life, so of course he decides that he wants to end his life. 

He tries to suppress is power to the point he’s almost completely identical with a regular one tailed fox and jumps into a lake to drown. 

It was the perfect plan and his death would have been in a rather picturesque spot as well.

Well it would’ve been, except some young dumb human decided to interfere!

When he awakened from consciousness covered in bandages near a warm fireplace beside him he found a relatively young human male, with choppy silver hair and eyes that reminded him of a sunset. 

He was pale scrawny thing, bruised, and tired looking to boot.  

Honestly he was a rather pretty for a human, perhaps he had some demon heritage given his unique coloring? 

It piqued his interest slightly, and as he learned more about the human his interest grew.

He learned that Atsushi was a lone human who was recently banished from his former village. Apparently the human’s didn’t like the idea of someone with yokai heritage living among them so instead of outright murdering the guy they isolate him in some abandoned little hut in the middle of the mountains. 

But apart from his coloring and ability to heal himself Atsushi was as human as could be.

A lonely little human at that. 

Fun to tease and prank though.

Even before he learned that Dazai could talk he was always talking to him, petting his soft fur, and treating him so gently.

Honestly it was rather nice to be pampered by such a pretty human. 

Even when he played pranks on him or teased him Atsushi never truly got angry, he would sigh and complain but would always welcome Dazai with open arms. 

Perhaps it was the warm look in his eyes, the way the Atsushi would listen to his complaints with a soft understanding smile, or the absolute delight he would express whenever Dazai would bring him back a large chicken or rabbit but Dazai couldn’t help but grow attached.

At some point he found himself beginning to love his little hidden treasure. 

——————————————

Honestly I love the idea Atsushi just believing for the first few months that Dazai is just some mischievous fox that he saved from drowning in a river. 

Sure that little fox woke up hissing at him and trying to destroy literally everything Atsushi owned in his small ramshackle hut but over time his little friend warmed up to him. 

It helped his lonely existence to be able to talk to the little creature and the fox seemed to enjoy his company as well because at some point during the day the fox would just stay on his shoulders all nice and cozy around Atsushi’s neck while listening to him and chirping in his own two cents in there. 

It was peaceful and made Atsushi feel like he was not alone anymore.

---------------------------------------

Meanwhile at night while Atsushi is sleeping he gets territorial over his new little mountain home and sweet human. 

AKA: Dazai is kinda yandere feral when humans and Yokai wander too close to his and Atsushi’s hut.  

I’d like to think that some sort of rumor starts spreading around about how a powerful and cruel Yokai protects the mountain because it holds some sort of treasure or something.

But really its just Dazai acting like an overly possessive attention starved cat who will hiss and scratch at anyone who gets close to his favorite person one moment and the next will yowl and break every glass cup in the house until he gets the attention he believes is owed to him from said favorite person.

—————————

At some point Dazai decides to leave for a day or two to get some gifts for Atsushi but comes back to find their humble home getting ransacked and poor Atsushi being hurt (cause ya know what’s an edo anime without mountain bandits lol). 

And Dazai, Dazai goes a bit feral and exposes Atsushi to his true nine tailed form.

I imagine Dazai cradling Atsushi to himself while his tails swish aggressively as he growls at the perceived threat.

Cause how fucking dare those humans think they can steal from him! How dare they think they can hurt his human!

Meanwhile Atsushi feels a mixture of confusion, fear, indignation, and a small amount of relief. 

Confusion because apparently his pet fox is actually an incredibly powerful yokai who could’ve killed him at any point of time.

Fear because his pet fox yokai looks incredibly pissed and is staring at the robbers like he's about to tear them apart.

Indignation because he knew that fox was too smart to just be a fox! He was going crazy for months talking to what he believed to be a pet when instead he could have had full on conversations with incredibly hot fox man! When this was all over he was going to give Dazai an earful! 

And finally relief cause for as terrifying as Dazai looks right now, he’s holding him so gently~  

XD 

Happy birthday, Atsushi!

Dazatsu Month 2025 Day 18 - Death

Part I | Part II

Combining death and flowers~

Hello 👋

I am Haifa from Gaza 🇵🇸

Palestine, mother of three children. We faced many physical and psychological problems due to the war that completely destroyed our home and source of income. My children's health was destroyed due to polluted water and contaminated food. We live in very difficult conditions. We live in a nylon tent and my children shiver from the cold 🥶

My son Yousef, 8 years old, aspired to become an engineer, but the occupation destroyed his talent. Jourie and Joan, the cheerful twins full of humor and fun in our house, are 6 years old and are deprived of education. My children have no future here in Gaza. Help me get out safely.

Otherwise, the price of food has become very expensive, my children make me cry bitterly because I can't provide for their needs because I don't have money. Please your donation and help will mean a lot we have tragedies that need you don't ignore me

Aku after Atsushi comes back and the fight has "ended", immediately runs over to Atsushi to make he sure he's okay. And they meet eachother with a hug.

Atsushi: omg omg....I am back! I am alive!

Akutagawa: omg...you are back...you are okay

*squeezing eachother aggressively*

Atsushi: I thought I was dead...you were dead

Akutagawa: we are fine...we are fine...

*Atsushi pulls away*

Atsushi: wait, we are enemies! We are supposed to be on opposite sides not THIS!!!

Akutagawa, sighs: Weretiger, I didn't ask them to return you the ADA but to ME

Atsushi: oh...oh..

*meanwhile*

Aya: you aren't gonna stop this?

Fyodor: all these years I have learnt how important reunions can be.

Aya: so you're sentimental

Fyodor: ah to be young...
