i realize i haven't been active in the bsd fandom so much as of late but i'd like to make a psa since i have a large reach over my target audience.
do NOT engage with the dazai anon. at all. if they reblog your post with hateful or slanderous messages, do not engage them. the reason they are so active is bc they continue to feed off the engagement you give them in the form of snide replies.
i know you're trying to preserve your dignity or deter them or tell them off for good in the hopes that they will not bother you again, but this WILL NOT WORK. they will keep coming back all because you've mentally established that their comments get to you. that they can say something cruel and harmful and they will get a strongly worded reply that lets them justify the racism, homophobia, and other hate they will then project onto you.
i do not care if you think you're helping the situation by telling them to fuck off.
you are making it worse. i will say it again.
YOU ARE MAKING IT WORSE.
do not engage with the dazai anon under any circumstances. report them. block them. never directly contact them at all. i hope this will be of use to some people bc i've been witnessing harassment directed towards certain individuals all week. please stay safe.
(PLEASE REBLOG THIS BTW. this is for people's safety and i'd like to get it out there. ppl are still making the same mistakes and replying to this jackass and then getting cyberbullied in turn)

Hi guys. With the influx of AI art, please take a moment to examine people's art before you like/reblog it. If you see someone with an oddly inconsistent artstyle, who can't seem to draw hands despite the "excellent" rendering (alongside other things) and make mistakes normal artists usually wouldn't, please block them and find real artists. Supporting AI is taking away from real artists who put real emotion, passion, and time into their work instead of taking a couple seconds to write in a prompt or submit a picture and click a button.
If anyone would like a list of some (BSD) artists I personally like on Tumblr, let me know and I'll make a separate post so you can go ahead and support them instead of people who use AI to make soulless "art" that is really just stolen from thousands of different talented artists to feed nothing but a machine for fake image generation. Thank you.
...I might have to rewrite my fanfiction from the ground up
Resource for new Bungo Stray Dogs fans so you don't go insane like I did making this lol. Could also be for longtime fans, idk, I'm not new at this point. I just have only watched the anime and read like one novel
Anyways, here's all the story arcs (in narrative chronological order) and which media forms they're in and when those media forms came out -- for the books: not always the official publishing date because sometimes they come out special first before proper printing. My info is up to date as of April 15, 2025 but admittedly mostly taken from the wiki and organized into this!
Now you never have to ask "which came first the manga or the novel?" again lol. Or in the one weird case, the anime movie?
Key:
Blank/White = doesn't have the thing
Green = has the thing
Blue = has the thing and the thing was first
Red = specifically for Azure Apostle because they messed it up that bad with where they put it in the anime
Note: Yep, DEAD APPLE is weird because the movie and the book kind of happened at the same time *insert shrugging noises here idk*
Lmk if the picture is illegible!
I have been in a depressive funk for the past few months. Stress has been piling up and I've just shut down instead of dealing with it one at a time. I don't know where to start.
But Update on I Am Dazai:
Okay so I haven't updated my fanfic for three months because I am both reworking the first chapter and adding a new one. I decided to split the first chapter in two parts to add more context and detail to the time "Dazai" spent with Mori. Especially since new details have come to light and now I have to rewrite it. (Aka I read it and didn't like it) I may also rewrite the funeral but don't count on it. Or just rewrite the whole first half.
I don't know. Please be patient with me.
The next chapter after Dazai and Chuuya have defeated Rimbaud... They may or may not eat together at a restaurant. Wounds should be dealt with right away. But food first. Warm food takes priority.
Edit: It has come to my attention that it has only been fifteen days since I last updated, not three months. Time is a construct. I simply lost time. Oh well, revamped first chapter done. Working on the second one.
What if...instead of Creepypasta....Helperpasta. You know, instead of hurting or dare I say killing humans, there were stories people and creatures that helped people. Like a short story of an angel helping a human get over their depression instead of a short story of a creepy clown torturing children.
But my main point is...what if there was a force of "good" that were dragging down the kill rates of all the Creepypasta? Then there would be a war. An incredible war of "good" and "evil". Maybe even the reverse version of some of the Creepypasta. Like instead of Jeff the Killer he would be Jeff the Helper. You get the idea. I want someone to make something like this and I want the internet to go to war with each other over it.
A couple of months ago I sent a proposal for a horror series to a publisher and I had to provide 10 sample pages. It didn’t get picked up, but I got some encouraging words for them so I’m currently working on a one-shot.
I wanted to share these pages since I’m kinda proud of them and I want other to see them & I think it kinda works as a short, open-ended little story.
Moon Eater~ I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday and ate everything and more!
i really hate e-begging and i'm really fucking distraught that this is happening like five days before my paycheck.
but,
my housemate's dentist just played a Nasty Fucking Trick because we forgot the magic words "are you in network for our insurance" and instead asked "do you accept our insurance". and now we are on the hook for $800 we really, really don't have. i managed to push Last Month's Consequences forward a month with the magic of credit cards and i had everything planned out and now we are lining up to get sucker punched into the debt doom spiral and we'd really like to avoid that if possible.
any help is appreciated, even if it's just a reblog. thanks.
will delete this post when we're fine.
Note: This is not every time they insult/make fun of each other. For example Dazai tends to say things like he'll put a curse on Chuuya to remain short whilst he grows tall, more than name calling. However this list is only name calling.
Dazai about Chuuya:
Kid
Pip-squeak (Uses more than once)
Little fairy
A child
Schoolboy (Uses more than once)
Little man
Filthy dog
Chuuya - He calls Chuuya by his name for the first time in the arcade, Chuuya then tells him not to use his name. After this Dazai repeatedly says his name over using nicknames.
Chuuya about Dazai:
Kid
Surprisingly gutsy kid
Little shit
Little punk
Dumbass
Lil twig
Mummy boy (Uses more than once)
Little wimp
Bandages
Idiot
Twisted freak
Little suicide-obsessed- (he's cut off before he finishes this one)
Sly dirtbag
Slimeball (Uses more than once)
Crafty son of a bitch
Sly bastard
Demon
Weasel
Dazai - He calls Dazai by his name for the first time during their fight with Rimbaud when they agree to work together to defeat him. However, he still mixes in name calling along with using Dazai's name.
BONUS - Names Chuuya uses for other people:
Old man - Hirotsu
Old fart - Hirotsu and the Old Boss
Doc - Mori
Bastard - Mori
Piece of shit - Mori
Damn octopus - Mori
Gramps - Random GSS member
Dumbass - Shirase
Ma'am (Ane-san) - Kouyou. (She also calls Chuuya 'Young man' just before this. They both disapprove of being called these.)
Boss - Mori
Randou - Rimbaud (as far as I could see Chuuya mostly used his name, though I may have missed a nickname)
A thing I noticed with Dazai is that he generally calls people by their names. He calls Hirotsu, Mori and Kouyou all by name. With Mori it sometimes feels like that's the insult, he knows he can get away with disrespecting him this way, so he doesn't call Mori his Boss. Similarly he only starts calling Chuuya by name after he's told not to. He also prefers coming up with imaginative insults/scenarios rather than name calling, though he's not above it, so his list is a lot shorter than Chuuya's.
Chuuya however, uses nicknames for practically everyone, they just get more polite the more he respects them. Mori goes from 'Bastard' and 'Octopus' to 'Boss', once he gains Chuuya's respect. Rimbaud felt like the exception because Chuuya kept calling him Randou during their fight.
I also think it's interesting that Chuuya calls most adults something to do with being old/older. I don't know whether it was intentional or not, but to me, this emphasizes how Chuuya is used to being solely around other children. Even Kouyou who is only nineteen, is labeled as older to Chuuya, probably because there were no Sheep her age. In both the anime and the manga they are all depicted as younger teens around the same age as Chuuya.
Ane-san is also a mafia title, so it could just be that, but I do think Chuuya is genuinely not used to being around adults and that not meaning danger.
