And then of course fluff and crack. Our favorite kitty learns that, well, being a kitty can be quite nice sometimes, outside of battle.
Rewrite x3 adventures: oh god why did I start this I am Not Capable
Also rewrite adventures: this paragraph could probably be cut but!! If you weren’t a coward he would’ve licked the injury
Atsushi’s tongue feels too large in his mouth. The tiger in him urges him to dip his head and groom Akutagawa awake, to clean the wound with firm swipes, to press close and share warmth with a too-cold body. Atsushi droops, only to jerk back the second he catches himself, swallowing hard. He is not a tiger, he repeats silently as he carefully straightens Akutagawa’s supine form. Licking would be gross and not helpful and Akutagawa would be mad.
owie
touch starved atsushi who doesn't know how to ask for affection but has learned the following:
if he falls asleep on his desk near the end of his shift, kunikida will carry him back to his dorm (so now he pretends to fall asleep at least twice every week)
if he accidentally loses control of his ability, dazai will ruffle his hair to nullify it (so he starts controlling it enough to "accidentally" bring out random tiger features)
if he gets even a small bruise and yosano knows, she'll check it out and then pat his back after bandaging it (so he becomes more clumsy)
if he sits a little close to naomi during long boring meetings, she'll rest her head against his shoulder (so he makes sure to "accidentally" end up between her and juni or on her other side every time)
if he accidentally runs into president fukuzawa, the president will steady him by placing a hand on his shoulder (so he makes sure to almost bump into him at least once a week)
if he and kyouka are walking around in busy streets, kyouka will hold on to his wrist or hand or something to make sure that they dont go separated (so he gains an interest in all crowded shopping areas)
if he gives kenji a gift, kenji will thank him with a hug (kenji is very confused but pleased by his growing collection of random knick knacks given to him by atsushi)
if he says something funny, junichiro will chuckle and bump their shoulders (so he starts trying to be purposefully funny)
weirdly enough though... ranpo doesn't have a pattern but still he pops up awkwardly next to atsushi and bumps their shoulders or pats his back or something similar even though he isn't usually touchy... hmmm....
okay since obviously ive gotten to into catifying atsushi i forgot he was a tiger - as u guys pointed out
this is how a beach episode would ACTUALLY play out in my head - kunikida, dazai, and atsushi focus
kunikida: are you not gonna go swimming dazai?
dazai: nope! i think today im just going to relax in the sand! maybe i'll try and drown myself later tho... what about you?
kunikida: im not swimming either
dazai: awww why not
kunikida: for some reason i dont feel safe getting in the ocean w/ u here
dazai, snickering: aww~ how could you say that~ im so hurt
atsushi, in the background, trying to secretly run away:
dazai: aww atsushi-kun why are you sneaking away
atsushi, startled: me? running away? haha... no i wouldn't
kunikida: atsushi, is everything all right? don't tell me you've decided to not participate in a company wide vacation?
atsushi: no! it's not that
dazai: you cant swim? but you fish me out all the time
atsushi: i know how to swim! i just... i don't really like water
dazai: is it becuz you're a cat?
kunikida and atsushi: he's/im a tiger
kunikida: atsushi don't tigers usually like water
atsushi: well... im not really a tiger... it's just my ability
kunikida: is it becuz dazai's here?he is a rather unsafe person to be near when you're also near wtaer
dazai: how cruel~ atsushi-kun i pinky promise i wont drown you~
atsushi:
atsushi, shyly: you really promise?
dazai, who was just joking: ?????????
kunikida, also flabbergasted: ?????????? did you think one of us would-
atsushi: no! i mean obviously not haha... but you promise...?
dazai:
kunikida:
dazai: of course! we promise not to drown you
kunikida: and to get you out of the water if you're in trouble
atsushi: oh... but didn't you not want to swim
kunikida dazai, professional dgaslighters: that never happened
atsushi: ...oh okay... then i think i'll try to swim... you'll be there?
dazai and kunikida: of course
*later*
dazai: atsushi-kun you really...
kunikida: atsushi, please, it's been 7 hours come back out
atsushi, having the time of his life, eyes sparkling, tail wagging: five more minutes!!
kunikida: you said that last time too...
dazai: atsushi-kun sure likes water
kunikida, fixing his glasses: we have to just grab him and run off quickly
dazai: ooh~ kunikida wants to kidnap someone~? how despciable
kunikida: its not kidnapping its for his own good
dazai: if that helps you sleep at night :3
1. I'm so tired
2. My HC is that Atsushi is the more possessive of the two (tiger stuff)
3. I rarely draw kisses
4. I hope it looks good And that's how Yasushi's parents got engaged.
i like when people give atsushi cat-like traits like purring or having sharper-than-average canines and i think we should take it a step further and just keep adding onto it. atsushi should chuff. he scratches on walls and his desk until there's obvious nail marks digging into the wood. he rubs against the others to mark them as his territory. there has to be a meeting held because he won't stop shedding and there's white hair everywhere so a good portion of the agency's budget goes into getting everyone lint rollers. he freaks people out at night because of his tapetum lucidum. and he does all of this subconsciously so if you tell him he does any of these things he'd be absolutely mortified
bruh the only thing i can think of is those atsushi getting high on catnip fics 💀
actually does bsd have anesthesia or the such fics after like wisdom tooth removal or just after some surgery where the person gets all loopy cuz i cant remember seeing any
and im too lazy to just filter it on ao3 so instead im just gonna post it here
Atsushi giving nonperishable foods to those they cares about.
He learned how to make various kinds of jerky because the tiger kept hunting and just leaving carcasses in people's homes. So, Atsushi's loved ones often wake up and just see a fuck ton of jerky in their houses, or mass amounts of cans and other various non-perishables on their chairs
