So i was looking at cat facts and i saw that cats headbutt you because they want your attention. It also shows that they trust you.
Now all I can imagine is Atsushi headbutting a bunch of others. Kunikida, Dazai, and Kyouka get the most headbutts for sure.
I'd think Aku's brain would freeze for a small second after getting one.
i love your blog can you write about atsushi being feverish sick or hc about it? sorry if i have poor English.
thank you so much!! and no worries your english is great!! I'm writing a fevered atsushi sickfic for Sicktember under the "Persistent Fever" prompt that I'm very much enjoying writing so far hehe...
- atsushi definitely has a lot of problems speaking up when he doesn't feel well or just recognizing that he need to slow down because of how he grew up. he has some pretty serious anxiety so when he doesn't feel good he either gets all in his head about or he doesn't realize it
- he gets low grade fevers often when he gets overly stressed out/exhausted/overworking
- kyoka and lucy have learned to keep an eye on him while he's working because he tends not to realize when he has a fever until it gets really bad
- kyoka is very sweet about making sure he looks after himself and lucy scolds the ever loving shit out of him
- sometimes they don't notice in time and he passes out :( they have to take him to the infirmary and keep a good eye on him to make sure he rests
- he's very prone to hallucinations and nightmares when he has high fevers 🥺 he'll turn over in his sleep, shake and breathe heavy and whimper, sweat through the sheets, and wake up sobbing and desperate for comfort
- atsushi is terrified of needles so they have to be sneaky when yosano needs to give him injections. dazai is a pro at distracting him but sometimes atsushi is just so out of it that he doesn't notice. sometimes his fever is so high that he's completely delusional and becomes terrified of yosano💔 he's accidentally hurt her in the past with his ability and they've learned to keep dazai handy to prevent that
- kyoka has to take him home when he's really not doing well because he's sensitive to the antiseptic smell in the infirmary and it makes him very nauseous, and he's very emetophobic so they try to avoid that as much as possible
- everyone in the ADA looks after him very well and sometimes he cries and wonders what he did to deserve their love and care 😭
Atsushi who acts cat like but only when he feels safe.
He curls up and fall asleep during an agency movie night with his head on Kyoka's shoulder.
But only after Kyoka noticed how tired he was and shrugged, patting her shoulder.
Atsushi tries to subtly chase mice until Fukuzawa just let's him go nuts, just try not to make a mess.
Atsushi only sits up on his desk at work if given the okay from Kunikida.
Once becoming friends with Akutagawa, Atsushi once chased after Rashoumoun and Akutagawa just rolled his eyes fondly at his apology and said it was fine.
Atsushi may not have known it but the Orphanage probably punished him for ever acting "like that wretched tiger."
To the point Atsushi subconsciously can't act catlike unless he feels safe.
Because he's afraid he'll get punished for it, even if he doesn't remember why he's so afraid.
big shoutout to red in tooth and claw for putting a name to my obsession (it's been 3 years i think this is going to stick with me for life)
I am BEGGING the bsd fandom/fanfic writers to PLEASE know basic feline anatomy and that TIGERS CAN’T PURR! I know it’s cute to have Atsushi purring, BUT HE CAN’T! I’m sorry, but it’s not possible… but write him chuffing! Chuffing is cute too!
That is all
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.
Ya know, Atsushi probably really struggles with physical affection. There’s probably a very few number of people who can touch him, and even then he needs to see it coming. I find it hard to believe that, as compassionate and caring as my little baby is, he is just over all of the physical and mental abuse he suffered. And while he makes connections quickly, it probably takes the members of the ADA months to get to a place where they can touch him without him panicking and flinching.
owie
