    Summary

    Atsushi pulled out his phone and looked at it again. Still no messages. He sighed and tucked his phone away, then stood and stretched his arms over his head. Out on the pavement he was under the waning light of a moon a week past full, and he shivered a little at the gentle caress of moonlight. He lifted his head and sniffed the air in an exaggerated motion…and caught the faintest whiff of metal, on the breeze.

     

    Blood…?

    Summary

    "Dazai..." Chuuya's voice comes out too tight and small, unlikely to ever reach Dazai. His hand lifts shakily, in some dazed attempt to stop him. There is panic wild and fast in his chest, the beginnings of hyperventilation, his breaths shallow and quick.

     

    Something's wrong, something's wrong—

     

    This hurts too much, it's not supposed to be like this—

     

    His vision is blurring, and his head is taut and aching with the stress and anxiety and so much anguish that he can barely comprehend it.

    The last of Dazai's hazy form disappears, far in the distance.
    _______

     

    Forced into a difficult situation, Dazai has to leave Chuuya behind post-Corruption without his usual thorough check-up. Only, he has no idea just what state Chuuya was in as he was walking away from him that night.

    Grief is a good teacher on how to value those you love. When he gets Chuuya back, Dazai uses his lessons well.

    Summary

    He had been here before.

    The moment thrummed with the inevitable, the bite of the crisp autumn air, the call of seabirds in the distance. Akutagawa stared through the crush of people, his heartbeat quickening, confused and concerned at his own inability to control his body’s reaction. Déjà vu was nothing but a fault in the brain, a broken neural pathway remapped across an existing memory…and yet.

    He had been here before.

    Summary

    Joining a local gang of orphaned children at the age of thirteen hadn't exactly been Dazai's plan in life, but realistically speaking, it isn't like he has anything better to do, so... Why not?

    (There are, of course, many reasons to not do that, but, well. Dazai's boredom is a powerful thing.)

    [AKA the completely self-indulgent "Dazai joins the Sheep" au that nobody asked for.]

    Summary

    Dazai Osamu is a creature of habit. He thrives off of the predictable, the consistent, and he loathes the concept of change. To change means that something is lost. Something that, more often than not, was something he was fond of. If not fond, then it was something familiar.

    He likes familiarity.

    He does not like to lose things.

     

    or,

    Chuuya drunk calls Dazai a few times.
