Okay Since Obviously Ive Gotten To Into Catifying Atsushi I Forgot He Was A Tiger - As U Guys Pointed

[Post-canon AU]

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.

HC that even under Fukuzawa's ability Atsushi gets moody as it gets closer to the full moon. He gets more easily irritated and tiger features like his fangs and ears pop out more often than usual. Even though the president can suppress the full transformation Byakko WILL want to do kitty things on the full moon and make it everyone else's problem that she can't

naomi: hey atsushi do you have an extra-

atsushi, not even looking up from his work, just reaching into his desk and pulling out a hamster:

naomi:

naomi: thanks but i was gonna ask for a pencil

atsushi, taking back the hamster and putting it back inside his desk and giving her a pencil:

naomi: thanks

atsushi with more cat/tiger behaviors but some lesser discussed ones:

he scratches all the doorways of the agency building and his dorm. kunikida scolds him for damaging property for over an hour but while he apologizes he’s strangely uncontrite (at least for atsushi who tends to overapologize) about it

/

a mostly nocturnal sleep schedule feels the most natural to him but since his orphanage’s schedule was (quite literally) beaten into him, he regularly wakes up early, though after a long mission or multiple in a row, he tends to sleep through the day instead.

/

when really frustrated (usually during an argument with akutagawa) he has a tendency to stomp his feet. it tends to break the tension, and atsushi finds its super embarrassing. akutagawa finds it cute

/

he’s constantly fighting the urge to sit on his coworkers desks while they’re working and distract them. same with knocking things off their desks.

/

head bunting!!!! he first starts doing it to kyouka after the end of the guild plot. just does it to her one morning while they’re cooking breakfast without realizing. he’s mortified for a moment until kyouka does it back, equally shy yet earnest about it. slowly he catches himself doing it to the rest of the agency: when kenji gives him a hug after a mission, when yosano buys him something he was looking at during a shopping trip, while sharing lunch with the tanizakis, to ranpo after atsushi solves his first mystery on own, to kunikida and dazai after a dangerous mission. he hasn’t worked himself up to doing it to the president yet (and fukuzawas kind of sad about it). dazai and kunikida are the most flustered by it, kenji and kyouka do it back to him the most.

/

as much as he hates being locked up or confined against his will (and he really hates it), he genuinely loves being in small spaces. he sleeps in the closest for kyoukas privacy but he does geniunely feel comfortable there. sometimes he eats lunch under his desk or in the supply room if he’s feeling stressed. dazai did give him a giant box once to see if he’d sit in it and he totally did.

/

he tends to suck on the corners of blankets and things like his shirts or sweaters when he’s asleep or distracted. dazai used to tease him for it until he read that it was often found cats taken to soon from their mothers. he didn’t really find it funny after that

/

he will just Stare at people. agency members look up from their work and will see him looking directly at them. he usually snaps out of it right after and apologizes but just like slow blinks and winks and closing his eyes, he starts doing it more and more as he gets in tune with his ability.

my babey.

Day 3 (12/17): pillow fort

@dazaimultishipweek

The moon glowed high above the window.  Its full glory shone blue light upon the living room floor.  Any other person would think of it as peaceful, but the Kunikidazai family wasn’t a group of “normal” people.

Atsushi cowered in the corner, curled up in a ball.

“Don’t let it touch me,” he whimpered. “I’ll hurt you.”

Dazai’s heart ached.  He and his husband, Kunikida, had adopted Atsushi quite recently.  They’d only been together for about six months, and the abuse Atsushi had suffered at the orphanage still haunted him.  Ever since he learned about his ability, he’d been swarmed with fear and worry.  Such things shouldn’t trouble a six-year-old.  That was horrible, even to an ex-mafia executive.

Dazai had to do all he could to quell his son’s fears.

“You won’t,” he assured. “My ability will stop that from ever happening.”

Atsushi shook his head and buried it in his knees. “I’ll get punished if I hurt you.  I can’t… And your ability won’t make Daddy safe.”

His words tore at Dazai’s heart.  He looked at Kunikida for guidance.

“See, I’m a problem,” Atsushi mumbled.

“No, you’re not.  You’ll never be a problem, okay, Atsu?” Kunikida inched towards Atsushi as to not frighten him more. ‘In fact, I think—“

“Go away.”

Kunikida backed off.

An idea sprung into Dazai’s mind. “You know, if the moonlight doesn’t tough you, you won’t turn into a tiger.  So, why don’t we build a pillow fort to block it?”

“A pillow fort?” repeated Kunikida and Atsushi in unison.

“Yes,” said Dazai, motioning for Kunikida to make his way to the couch. “We’ll get lots and lots of pillows, and then the moon will never get you.  But I’m going to need your help.”

Atsushi raised his head. “Will you hold my hand?”

“Of course. Pappy’s got you.” Dazai bent down to Atsushi’s level and extended his hand. “I promise to hold onto you as long as you need.”

Atsushi reached forth his tiny hand and clenched his fist around Dazai’s hand.

“Toss me a pillow, darling,” said Dazai.  Kunikida obliged. “Would you like to go first, Atsu?”

“O-okay.” Tentatively, he took it and pushed it towards the light, making sure not to touch the places the moon shone upon.

“That’s not too hard, is it?”

“How many do I have to do until you don’t hit me?”

Reality slammed into Dazai like a truck.  He nearly choked on a breath.  How dare that orphanage director be so cruel? “I’m never going to hit you.”

“Never?”

“I promise.  Never, not ever.”

“And me too,” added Kunikida. “We adopted you because we wanted to.  We’d never do anything mean to you.”

Finally, Dazai’s heart warmed.  Kunikida had originally been very against adopting a child.  But now, he cared about Atsushi possibly more than anyone.  His words only made that love more apparent.

Atsushi sniffled. “Why are you being nice?  No one was ever nice to me before.”

“Because we love you.”

Atsushi processed this. “You… love me?”

Dazai and Kunikida both nodded. “So, we’re going to all build the biggest pillow fort and keep you and us safe.  Here.” Dazai grabbed a pillow with his free hand. “I’ll go first.  If you just want to watch, that’s okay too.”

He stacked pillows one by one, and after about five of them, Kunikida joined in.

“That’s a pretty big wall,” said Atsushi, gaping at the fort.

Next, Kunikida dragged in two chairs from the dining room and placed them in opposite directions on each side of the fort.

“What are those for?” Atsushi asked.

“Once I put a blanket over those chairs, it’ll be like a new roof.  Then, the moonlight won’t stand a chance.”

He draped a blanket over the chairs as described. “Now, all that’s left to do is go inside.  If you’d like to.”

Atsushi pursed his lips. “Will you and Pappy be in there too?”

“Of course, if you want us too.”

“Okay.”

———————————————————————————————————

Atsushi lay on the bed of pillows, snoring gently.

Dazai hugged Kunikida’s shoulder against his own, smiling at their son.  He didn’t need to say anything.  All he had to do was just watch his dear little boy sleep.

“Are you sure he’s not going to transform?” Kunikida asked. “I really do want to keep my promise.”

“No, I think we’ll be fine,” replied Dazai, shifting his view to Kunikida. “And if he does, all I need to do is touch him.  It’s impossible for me to get hurt by his claws.  But, perhaps it’d be better to sleep in here tonight.”

“I’m fine with that,” said Kunikida. “Anything to let him be happy.”

I’m not the most hardcore fan, but I still really need to see domestic cat atsushi. Atsushi with ball of yarn, catnip, scratching furniture, all that stuff.

i like to think that Atsushi can faintly smell people coming,

he can smell some green tea whenever Kyoka walks by, the sickly sweet candy smell Ranpo reeks of whenever he pops out of nowhere, and sometimes even a faint smell of white lillies of Dazai every now and then

with that being said, he can easily recognise smells he deems safe (safe being the agency) and smells that make him more alert, so he doesn't get jumpscared when an enemy suprises him, but could jump 40ft into the air if Kenji walks up behind him

let the tiger also be a part of the agency dammit
