I can’t think about pre-Agency Atsushi without bawling my eyes out.

In every single flashback we see Atsushi scared, berated and abused.

There was not a point in his life where he has ever felt safe or loved and cared about. No one cared if Atsushi lived or died.

No one has shown him a shred of kindness for 18 years.

Atsushi wasn’t allowed to own anything. Nothing has ever belonged to him and the one thing that did they tried to take from him anyway.

And he’s so small…he’s so small and frail and sure all the other kids do but he’s so much smaller than them.

He’s the runt of the litter. The one who gets starved on a regular basis and everyone may hate each other but they all hate him together.

You just see him and he’s practically shaking with fear. He’s yelled at for simply existing. Beaten and told well it doesn’t matter because you’ve had worse.

And he knows he’s had worse.

And it’s all Atsushi’s ever known and by some fucking miracle he still clings to life with both hands.

He’s the living embodiment of resilience, of grit and determination because he grew up full of light in a place of darkness.

Atsushi was raised in hell and it cultivated a strong will but it doesn’t change that he was raised in hell.

Silly hc I have but I think atsushi can talk to cats. Like fully communicate with them. Small cats big cats literally anything in the feline family he can understand. But one day he runs into natsume in cat form and freaks out cause he cant communicate anything at all and that’s how he finds out who natsume is

permit office is kinda horror

My hc when Atsu is being nervous he starts throws in random facts or nonsense about the Bible. On purpose or not? It depends

Also shout-out to @inamagicalhallucination and her old(?) hc Aku being Atsushi's interpreter

*after a hard and bloody mission*

rando: how can you handle so much pain?

Atsu: well do you know that lady gaga in bible...*keeps talking bullshit*

rando: what

Aku: he's fucking with your head, so he can fuck away your dumb questions out of your head

What if BSD characters had YouTube channels (Based on this tweet)

Something about how Atsushi can trek through the past and the future when all he wants is to go back home to the Agency.

And it’s the one place he can’t go.

the idea of atsushi just casually jumping like 7 ft up to get something off a real tall shelf is very good and canon to me. people ask him to get things down for them to watch him do the cat crouch before he springs up.
