Orange Cat Atsushi

Hi! I’m not sure how long ago you posted the ADA Chuuya head canon post, or if you’ve lost interest, but in the tags you mentioned you have more to say but felt it was too long! I’d love to hear more if you want

Help I'm only seeing this now I'm sorry 😭 anyways more ada Chuuya hcs you say?? Hold my beer

> First time Chuuya uses corruption in front of the agency a part of his mind thinks, "That's it. They're going to be terrified of me now," only to be proven very wrong when he wakes up. The first person he sees is Dazai, which isn't new, Dazai has always been there after he woke up. Holding a mirror most of the time and saying, "Look what I drew on your face while you slept."

Then he blinks awake fully and he's surrounded by worried faces. Not scared, not curious but worried and when he sits up, they change to relief. Chuuya isn't sure what to do with the sudden burst of warmth spreading in his chest.

Atsushi is the first to leap at him. He hugs him, telling him how worried he has been. Kunikida pulls him away (you're crushing his ribs Atsushi) and sits next to Chuuya on the bed, patting his shoulder. Fukuzawa simply puts a hand on his head and Chuuya almost breaks down. He takes a pillow from behind him and buries his face into it. (This is how he manages his emotions. Everyone is used to it)

Ranpo, his partner, remains silently glaring at Chuuya until their eyes meet and Ranpo pinches his cheek. Hard. "Don't do that again!" He yells and says how he knew Chuuya had a bigger weapon up his sleeve that could cost his life but he didn't know it would be like this. Chuuya promises that he'd never use corruption unless Dazai is around.

For those who don't know why Ranpo is Chuuya's partner, here.

> For the 2-3 days he stays at the hospital, Kyouka leaves her bunny plushie with him so that he won't feel lonely. Yosano comes to check up on him the most, asking him if he feels okay. Chuuya tells her that he's used to it. He didn't get treatment like this in pm and he survived just fine. Sad eyes stare at him. "You shouldn't be used to it. You were a kid." Chuuya is once again filled with painful emotions he doesn't know what to do with.

> Moving on from corruption, Yosano and Chuuya are best friends !! If you go to the beauty salon Sunday morning you'll see them getting manicure and pedicure together, face masks on their face as they gossip about the latest rumors.

> Tanizaki oftens offers Chuuya his hairclips when he sees him struggling with his hair while working.

> Friday night is agency movie night !! They all gather at Chuuya's place to watch a movie together. They never let Dazai pick the movie despite how much he whines and cries.

> The movie nights always end in a cuddle pile. No matter how hard he tries, Chuuya can't hide the smile on his face when he wakes up to everyone's sleeping face the morning after. He carefully gets out of bed and goes to make breakfast for everyone. Dazai joins him minutes later. He hugs him from behind, and they share a little moment together in comforting silence.

> Basically Chuuya is surrounded by the love of his family all day every day and he's happier than he's ever been.

I like to hc that some kids in the Orphanage, maybe the older ones, were kind to Atsushi.

That they'd take the fall if they could knowing they'd get off way easier than him.

They all hate that they can recognise Atsushi from his screams alone.

They were warned, of course they were from the Headmaster and other staff.

That boy is no good.

But they'd all nod politely and shake their heads once alone.

Because the Headmaster was wrong.

Atsushi was a sweet kid. They'd make room for him to sit down, slipping a piece of bread into his shaking hands.

The staff never bothered to teach him even though they made him sit in all the lessons.

These kids would cobble their notes together and teach him how to read and write.

They were the only people to ever see his smile, to hear him laugh.

Those small moments of light kept Atsushi going.

And the day those kids left, having aged out the system they would gave him their numbers, sneak letters to him which kept him going.

Unfortunately because the Headmaster had adopted Atsushi, they couldn't take him with them which they would all regret.

But they'd never realise just how much they helped Atsushi.

The first thing he did when Dazai gave him his phone was call them.

Atsushi who tears up in suprise snd and overhelming relief and joy when every single one of them remember his name.

Atsushi remembers the abuse of the Orphanage, the cruelty of the Headmaster that's scarred him in ways even Byakko can't heal.

But he also remembers the kids who showed him kindness.

The people who looked at him and saw he was worth saving, worth love and support.

And Atsushi vowed he'd be that person to others, be the light in their darkness.

Because no one deserved to suffer alone.

bsd ch. 121.5 - a mysterious thing called 'the heart' yeah it was a good chapter i liked it (´꒳`)

Orange Cat Atsushi

Aka Atsushi is part orange tiger instead of white and exhibits orange cat behaviours.

Akutagwa: There’s no need to make things easier for him. That Jinko is…where did he go?

Fukuchi: I think he just jumped into the sea? Not the tactic I expected but I’m guessing this wasn’t part of your plan.

Akutagwa: For god’s sake…Jinko!

Atsushi pokes his head out of the sea.

Akutagwa: Get back here! We have more pressing matters to attend too!

Atsushi huffs and Fukuchi laughs.

Fukuchi: So much for the great save, huh?

Akutagwa, narrows his eyes: Jinko if you agree to return to this ship I…will allow you to play with Rashomon.

Atsushi perks up.

Akutagwa: But if you’d rather swim about…

Next thing you know Atsushi’s on the ship, shaking himself like a dog and drenching Fukuchi in sea water.

Before standing beside Akutagwa.

Atsushi: I’m holding you to that.

Akutagwa: Why you wish to use my ability for something like tug of war is beyond me. But I always keep my word.

Atsushi chuffs with a toothy grin.

Fukuchi: You two are weird. And so confident that you’ll leave this boat alive when facing me-

He then slips on the water that’s puddling around him.

Orange Cat Atsushi

Aka Atsushi is part orange tiger and thus exhibits orange cat behaviours.

Dazai: I know Atsushi I’m sure Kenji will be back soon.

Tiger Atsushi is curled up in a ball on the road and growls sadly.

Dazai: Oh I think I see him.

Tiger Atsushi perks up.

Chuuya: What the hell are you doing out here?!

Dazai: Oh never mind it’s just Chuuya. You know he’s so easy to mistake for a small child.

Chuyya: Why you!

Tiger Atsushi growls sadly.

Dazai: Wow Chuuya I hope you’re happy now you just made Atsushi sad.

Chuuya: I didn’t do shit. What’s wrong with him anyway?

Dazai: Atsushi wants to be carried.

Chuuya: You’re kidding me.

Dazai: Nope and while we could if he was in human form he refuses to turn back. And when I was gonna turn him back he hissed at me.

Chuuya: Oh boo hoo.

Dazai: Exactly, so now we have to wait for Kenji to come back from his case. But he ran into trouble so this is gonna be take a while.

Chuuya: What kind of giant rampaging tiger wants uppies?

Dazai: This one.

Chuuya thinks it over and sighs before looking at Atsushi.

Chuuya: So werebrat you wanna be carried?

Tiger Atsushi nods gravely.

Chuuya shakes his head and then lightly boops him on the nose and activates his ability.

Tiger Atsushi floats up in the air and spins around happily.

Dazai: Oh look you have uses after all.

Chuuya: I’m not doing this for you.

Dazai: Good because asking you for a favour might just kill me.

Chuuya: On that we agree:

Dazai: He looks so happy.

Chuuya: Yeah…why does he keep trying to crash into that building?

Dazai: When it comes to Atsushi one can never truly know.

I wanna beeeeeee famoussssss

The thing is Fyodor could’ve had Atsushi in his grasp before the series even began.

That’s without question no one else knew who or where Atsushi was until he showed up in Yokohama at 18 years old. While Fyodor has known about Atsushi, his ability and his location at minimum since he was 12. Because that’s when Fyodor sends Shibusawa to him.

And even when Fyodor is actively having Atsushi hunted down for through things like his bounty and the Guild’s incineration plot, it feels more like a test that anything else. It’s like he’s continuing where Shibusawa left off, setting these events and observing how Atsushi will fare through them.

Ironically in a way similar to a cat playing with it’s pray.

Like I don’t think for 5 minutes that Nathaniel Hawthorne showing up on the sky casino was supposed to be a legitimate threat. Especially knowing Lucy was there and allowing himself to get caught without even fighting back.

But I don’t think he was just randomly there, he had a purpose and it was to tie a string of blood to Atsushi. In order to keep a track of him.

A moment that stands out to me is during the Hunting dogs arc when Nikolai’s fighting Atsushi and tells him ‘you’re not one of the murder targets." Because it implies to me that Atsushi’s role is different to everyone else’s. He should be with the Agency, getting framed and then going on the run but he’s not. Atsushi is down underground fighting Nikolai who just leaves him there.

And yeah Kyouka shows up to help him but the people who came to inspect that area weren’t guards or soilders but the forensics team. Meaning that Atsushi wasn’t in any real danger and for a plot like this where the Agency should have nowhere safe left to go to that is rather odd.

The only exception to this I feel is the stuff with Fukuchi because he did originally plan to kill Atsushi. The only reason he didn’t was because Akutugawa showed up but even then he tried to have him kill Atsushi. Only reason Fukuchi didn’t go after Atsushi after was because it would’ve complicated the timeline.

Feels like an outlier because all Fyodor’s plans have involved trying to capture Atsushi. Even the Guild incineration plot had them keep him safe as a prisoner. And well, Fyodor kinda needs Atsushi alive for his plans.

Hell Fyodor was in the alleyway Atsushi was walking into in the Cannablism arc. You see him turn around at hearing Atsushi’s voice and he leaves to let Atsushi discover Dazai’s body. He just leaves him alone and carries on with his plan.

All of this just reads as "I need you but not yet." There’s a plan for Atsushi alright, there’s been one going for a long time but it hasn’t come to fruition yet. Much like how the book has specific parameters of when it can be used and its conditions, Fyodor is waiting until everything is put in place to enact his grand plan.

One in which Atsushi will be the centrepiece.
