"Or Maybe It Was Because He’d Pushed President Fukuzawa’s ‘cat Dad’ Mug Off The Table In The

Atsushi canonically isn't kind by nature (see Wan ch. 19), but that's okay because you don't have to be motivated by kindness to choose kindness, which is why Atsushi is the narrative's beautiful princess with a disorder anyway.

HES SO CUTE AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

Atsushi sleeping in the linen closet partly because he's cat like and it felt like a good idea.

But also because Atsushi spent his life often sleeping in a cage, and as awful as it was it's what he's used to.

He slept fine the first night because he was so exhausted but since than retreated to the linen closet.

It helps that it's both cosy and cool, which helps to ground him when he has nightmares.

And hey, now there's more space for Kyouka.

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....

I love any Atsushi hc where he has cat-like behavior. It's so adorable to see fanart of him doing the cat rub thing/head butt against other characters, but i would also like to see more tiger specific traits. Like they have "flexible spines" which gives them a wide range of movement compared to other big cats, their salive has antiseptic properties, they love water, and their canines have pressure-sensitive nerves to know where to bite their prey. All of which would be interesting in a fic, i think.

i love you fanfiction authors who write Atsushi with cat traits. yes he likes to be pet. yes he likes to rub his face on people and do forehead bonks. yes he has sharper than normal teeth and weird eyes. yes he will be a grumpy cat and hold a grudge against you. yes he will fight you to the death for food scraps. yes he will look at you with big ol pupils and jump 20 ft in the air when you scare him. he’s cat, he’s kitty.

Little vampire Fausto is sometimes reprimanded by college students when he goes out at night in his black vampire cape… and here’s why!

im just imagining atsushi sneezing and then his tiger features come out

also more tiger behaviour atsushi bc its so fluffy

Hc that atsushi's pupils dilate like a cats when he's happy or excited

Or when he's fighting his eyes narrow into little slits and he hisses

And when he's eating or looking at akutagawa his eyes get really big
