I didn’t have the patience to read through the incomprehensible Chinese translation of Google, that is why I didn’t get to finish it. But I loved the morally ambiguous start of the story, it was interesting and mind-blowing with it’s complexity in both characters and the relationships. 

Ah, I really wished that the translations in Ao3 would just update, so I could satiate my thirst for this fic.

I finally finished reading 47 days to change in chinese.  It’s seriously been an ordeal to read this fic, on the count of me struggling through the chinese and the fic itself being sometimes too intense for my fragile constitution.  what drew me to it ultimately was how interesting the premise of the story was, and the manner in which the drama unfolded.  i’m not exactly sure how i feel about it though?  It is for sure one of the most original and interesting fics I’ve read.  I’d like to say elements of it are challenging, but i don’t think challenging is the right word for it.  perhaps if one wants to keep on reading it, they shouldn’t have any expectations of closure or of sound ethics.

Chuuya and Dazai DO NOT hate each other

These two do not hate each other! Yes, they hate each other to a degree or to an extent but most of it is superficial and an example of that is empty death threats. If they truly hated each other, Chuuya wouldn't trust Dazai to stop him every time he uses corruption and Dazai wouldn't save Chuuya every time he uses corruption. I'm not saying they're lovers, friends, or anything for that matter! But calling their relationship toxic would be an understatement and so does calling it a love-hate relationship. Their relationship is very very complicated to comprehend to someone's brain.

hey, i read your rec list and fell in love with dust in your pocket. do you know any other fics like it?

by ‘other fics like it’ i’m going to assume you mean femslash tomarry fics, not vaguely steampunk tomarry aus (which would also be incredibly valid.) however, i will grab at any excuse to talk about fem tomarry

femslash tomarry/harrymort recs

at first and fierce affirming sight by @being-luminous is probably my favorite on this list. it’s a one-shot featuring Giant Immortal Snake Queen Tom Riddle and Tiny And Incredibly Smitten Harry Potter: Life Companions. i just adore tom’s characterization in this one

til death do us part (i know that you are mine) by @artsy-death is a short, smutty one-shot featuring a master of death, universe-hopping harry who harbors a minor obsession with tom riddle (across most universes) and of course a deliciously possessive and sadistic tom to top it off.

if you like dark themed tomarry, tag, you’re it by @whotooklortan is perfect. obsessive tom, kidnapped harry, and a wonderful case of stockholm syndrome. i personally like my toms as sociopathic as possible, and i adore this fic

for the well loved Tomarry As Academic Rivals That Also Occasionally Have Hate-Sex trope i offer you favourite pastime by @hookedonthesky

and finally, wolf_of_lilacs has written a ton of great fem tomarry/harrymort fics. here is the link to their collection

go forth and read fanfiction !

Some Tsukasa Theories

So earlier today, @sissaf and I got into a conversation about the current arc in the comments of Chapter 41 Part 1, and the topic of my theories about Tsukasa came up. I couldn’t explain all of this fully in a comment so I made an entire obsessive post about it instead… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯  

Just be aware these are just my own personal interpretations and opinions of what I’ve read up until now, and I could be entirely wrong, and no one has any obligation to read all this or agree with me^^

BSD STORMBRINGER SPOILERS

I JUST RAN AROUND THE SOFA MULTIPLE TIMES UNTIL I GOT EXHAUSTED JUST BECAUSE OF THIS SCENE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I like how Harry sneaks a look at Tom. This better have some angsty story behind it.

the dark lord and his most loyal officer 

similar, but still different.

Ladies, gentle men, and everything in between I present to you yet another idea born from the depths of my mind an extremely tiring day. This one has been bouncing around my poor head for a little over a week and at long last I know how to word it in a way that makes sense. Hopefully.

So we all know that Dazai doesn't particularly like dogs. Some people think it is do to some kind of trauma. I am not one of those people. Not everything to do with a person or character is linked to a past experience sometimes that's just how they are. Personally I don't think Dazai has any experience with a dog that traumatized and made him hate them. I just think he has never liked them.

Now sometimes people who don't like dogs will accidentally and to their shock come across a dog that completely steals their heart and they absolutely love. They won't like any other dog. They aren't suddenly a dog person but they would gladly kill for that one specific dog. This idea stems from that.

I'm thinking this would most likely happen a few weeks to about 2-3 months after Dazai leaves the Port Mafia. So he's alone and in hiding. One day he goes out for groceries, because food and bandages, and there's this group of kids in an ally, they're maybe a year or two younger than Dazai would be at the time, and are surrounded a small creature. Dazai doesn't think much off it till he hears whining from the animals followed by what sounds like someone intentionally harming it.

Dazai, against his better judgment, decided to get involved. He scares these kids off and finds a small red nosed pitbull puppy that is a few months old. She is easily less than a year old. She's banged up but not hurt so bad that he need to take her to the vet. Once more against his better judgement he brings this puppy back to where ever he is staying at the time. He plans to only keep her around till she is finished healing then take her to an animal shelter.

It takes him less than a week to decide to keep the puppy. He then proceeds to name her Ember. Ember becomes the only exception to his hatred for dogs. Fat forward to him joining the agency and Ember now has separation anxiety because he barely left her alone for the last two years. He bring Ember with him to the agency every day. Ember, being the sweetheart she is, learns rather quickly how to do things that protect Dazai while in the field.

Throughout the time he is with Ember he starts to do better mental at least marginally because she is reliant on him being alive to survive and he doesn't want his puppy to die. Essentially Ember is his unofficial emotional support animal.

Due to that him meeting Atsushi would probably go different. Possibly him walking Ember or something like that.

Later on when he reunites with Chuuya officially during the Guild arc he naturally brought Ember and that would be the first time Chuuya meets her. Ember instantly loves him which is good because Chuuya also adores her.

Dazai uses that as an excuse to spend time with Chuuya because "Obviously I can't deprive my sweet Ember of time with her second favorite person". Somewhere along the line they start unofficially dating and about a week after dead apple would have taken place they make things official and Dazai moves into Chuuya's place.

Ember is very happy with that development because that means more time with her favorite humans.

Also Ember has a wonky ear due to what happened when Dazai found her. It's nothing bad it's just wonky and makes her look like an adorable little dork.

this is a whole new level of denial...

16!Chuuya trying to flirt: You have a face.

16!Dazai: Yeah? You too.

Chuuya aggressively blushing: No! I mean you have a nice face!

Dazai: Thanks???

Chuuya: Ugh! I hate you and your damn face! (leaves angry, muttering 'stupid mackerel')

Hour later

Chuuya hiccuping and sobbing: And he just said thanks! Can you believe him, Ane-san?!

Kouyou: How was he supposed to know you are flirting with him?

Chuuya: He is a genius!

Kouyou: Oh boyー

...

Dazai: I really don't understand why he got angry with me today. I literally thanked him!

Oda: I think he was trying to flirt with you.

Dazai: Him? No way! He would rather save me over and over than develop feelings for me!

Oda: Mhm...and he saves you because?

Dazai: Because he hates me! Simple as that.

Oda:...
