    Summary

    “I can explain,” she rushes out, even though she has actually no idea how to explain.

    “Yeah, can you explain why I found this out from a Twitter thread instead of from you?” Bobby says. He grabs his phone and pulls up a web page, then slides the phone over to Rumi.

    She freezes.

    It’s not some tell-all about her secret demon identity.

    She looks down at the photo, taken by some resourceful paparazzo, of Jinu waving goodbye as he slips out the back of her condo building. In the background, blurry but still obviously her, is Rumi.

    //

    Five times people assumed Rumi and Jinu are together (and one other time entirely)

    Summary

    'Be out of the city of Camelot by sunrise, or so help me, you will burn.'

    ------

    When Merlin confesses the truth of his magic to Arthur, he finds himself exiled from Camelot. He intends never to return to Arthur's side, but destiny is not so easily defeated. Can he and Arthur heal the rift that has yawned between them, or will they both suffer the consequences of destiny's displeasure?

    (AKA: Merlin and Arthur get shoved into the magical equivalent of a "getting along" shirt because they're idiots.)

    Summary

    Instead of broaching the topic in a way he might have with someone from his new life, Dazai found himself broaching it just as he would when they were teenagers—angrily, to the point, and with no regard for the other party. “You’ve decided you have a death wish, which is supposed to be my thing by the way, and have dragged me into it.”

    “Hah?” Chuuya said, face slackening and head lifting from his chin as he looked at Dazai in something close to bewilderment. His voice raised in volume somewhat. It stoked something inside of Dazai, something famished and starving. “What the hell are you talking about?”

    “You don’t trust me anymore.”

    _____

    Or; Dazai loses Chuuya's trust after the situation with Lovecraft and handles it somewhat poorly. ((but also effectively, in the end))

    Summary

    Dazai's used to people looking at him with fear. He's the Demon Prodigy of the Port Mafia, unfeeling and inhuman. It would be strange if people didn't find him frightening.

    But, recently, he's not the one they're all flinching away from. He's not the one they whisper about. He's not the one they call a monster.

    Bit by bit, he pieces the clues together-- and he realizes that there are people in the mafia who don't like Chuuya.

    Obviously, he has to do something about this.
