I Am BEGGING The Bsd Fandom/fanfic Writers To PLEASE Know Basic Feline Anatomy And That TIGERS CAN’T

Feral Atsushi because he is a weretiger.

Atsushi hates wearing shoes with a vengeance and kicks em off whenever Kunikida isn't looking.

He will argue what's the point anyway when his ability will just break them. It's not like the Orphanage ever let wear shoes anyway so what's the big deal?

When Atsushi runs he will automatically do it on all fours, because it feels natural and he's just faster that way.

He once gave Akutugawa a dead bird as an apology.

Atsushi curls up into a ball when he's asleep. He'll sleep in his futon but sometimes he'll just throw off his blanket and snooze on the floor.

He loves to swim because tiger and is almost as bad as Dazai in that he will just dive into whatever body of water he finds.

Dazai sometimes hops in with him because it's fun and it pisses off Kunikida.

Kenji is more than happy to gift Atsushi with meat he's acquired from family. Atsushi will straight up eat it raw if he's hungry, not even bothering to cook it if Kenji hasn't already.

Atsushi is a lot more alert and focused at night. He likes to take night walks and hunt in the woods.

Atsushi both as a combination of poor socialisation and being part tiger, doesn't understand humans and their etiquette sometimes. He will blurt out that someone is lying.

He will ask and state things very bluntly without beating around the bush what so ever. He was punished and taught to always tell the truth, so this all confuses him.

The only one who gets him in that regard is Ranpo.

When Atsushi gets lost or kidnapped he will roar to try and get the others attention.

Atsushi makes chuffing sounds when he's happy. He takes naps during his breaks, either curled up on the sofa or under his desk.

Atsushi has deemed the Agency as his terrority. He's very protective over everyone in the Agency, especially Kenji and Kyouka.

He had to be held back from biting Fitzgerald because Atsushi sensed bad intentions. Infact the Agency always know if someone's bad news because Atsushi will immediately start growling at em to back the fuck off.

And if that doesn't work Atsushi will than launch himself at them and bite them.

It's why they know Poe and Lucy are cool now because Atsushi just waved at them.

Cut to Ranpo leaving the meeting with Fukuchi after thinking it well. And the moment Atsushi spots Fukuchi he's on all fours hissing

Ranpo:... Well I fucked up.

I headcanon that Atsushi’s ability will on occasion partially or fully activate in his sleep so every so often in the middle of the night Kyouka will hear the thump of a huge tiger getting squished into the walls of Atsushi’s closet

A girl!!

my babey.

bro got so relaxed during a nap he un-tigered

akutagawa sleeps like the dead. literally. on his back, hands crossed over his chest, not moving a single inch.

on the other hand, atsushi literally sprawls across the entire bed. he turns and accidentally slaps aku in the face with his arm. he yowls and chuffs and growls in his sleep.

it's horrible. neither of them get any sleep the first few days they start living together

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

My only "pet peeve" about Cat Like-Atsushi stories

I don't know if anyone else cares about it, but I care about it so imma talk about it.

Tigers cannot purr.

Basically Roaring and Purring are exclusive. Cats who can purr can not roar and cats who can roar can not purr. Tigers roar, they do not purr.

Now honestly, it doesn't bother me too much, as purring is adorable and Atsushi being able to purr while human can be explained away by "Oh human vocal cords aren't strong enough to roar, so when he's human he can purr instead", but i would like to see some roaring atsushi fics.

Like, maybe Dazai's teasing goes a little too far one day and he roars to warn Dazai to get out of his face, or Kyouka gets lost in a crowd and he roars to find her out of instinct, or if you wanna get shippy he roars as a way to get Akutagawa's attention.

I guess I just wish Tiger habits were explored more was apposed to him just being compared to a domestic cat.

That's all.

Edit: Unrelated, but you know how Snow Leopards carry their tails around in their mouths? I know tigers don't do it, but I kinda wanna see Atsushi do that. Like his tail pops out when he's nervous and he walks around with it in his mouth. Idk it just sounds cute.
