"you should be at the club" I should be working on my fanfic
the update was amazing!!!!!! your writing is genuinely so amazing,,, dazais slow realization is so fun to read about. i know you said you struggled with the chuuya laughing scene but it was really well written!!
are there any moments/chapters you’re really looking forward to writing next??
Thank you!! It's a short scene but I'm glad my work paid off!
As for your question...YES!! Where do I even begin?? There's this scene that's coming up that's been on my doc ever since I began planning out the story and I've been dying to get to!! Well, I say "coming up" but we wont get to it for a few more chapters. It's a skk scene and I'm excited because we get a change in scenery and it's important for their development but ahh I can't give too much away...

your writing is so good!!! every time i reread your fic im like damn this person is a god how did they do this
Omg?? Thank you!! I often wonder the same thing… though if you were to see me write it would just be 30% of the time spent staring blankly at my screen, 40% playing out the scene in my head and then immediately forgetting it, 20% filled with random writing bursts, and 10% spent pulling on my hair and wondering why in one hour I’ve only written three paragraphs…then deleting said paragraphs.
But I enjoy every second of it :)
When does summer break begin on your side of the world? 👀
Soon!! I’ll be completely done with exams on the 20th and I’m so, so, SO ready. I can’t wait to be back to my usual hobbies. I want to WRITE!!
Ahhh help I just noticed you have the "angst with a happy ending" tag on your story. How angsty are we talking about? Should I prepare myself ?
You're amazing btw
See my first instinct was to answer this with a "don't worry, it won't be too bad!" response but then I started thinking about it and well...
Dazai's backstory, once it's fully fleshed out, will definitely fit that category and then there's going to be some events later on that hmm...
I'm a sucker for happy endings though! No matter what, there will be hope at the end of the tunnel so just remember that <3
Do you know around when the next update will be out?
Sooo I was planning to have it out by the end of this week (!!) but then I got ambushed by exams and reports that have sadly taken my free time away for the millionth time. I should have some breathing room after this week (let’s commence a prayer circle 🕯️) so maybe sometime next week? I’m aiming for a weekend update at least (not this weekend though 😔).
Sorry, I promise I’m trying to get my shit together. If anything, I might cut the chapter in half (since it’s a loooong one) and update that first!
mafia days, post-mission
Are Dazai and Chuuya the same age? If I understand correctly Chuuya is 18 (he said that when he was 13 he got that scar in chapter 10 and that it had been 5 years since then so 13 + 5 = 18). It was said in the first chapter that Dazai couldn't be older than he is, so the logical conclusion would be that Dazai is 18 as well? Is it true?
Yes it is! They’re around the same age but Chuuya is slightly older (similar to canon). However, he’s closer to being 19 now and will probably reach that age by the time the story ends. I considered aging them up considering I added canonically younger characters but these ages made the most sense when I got to Chuuya’s backstory and when I found out that pirates were usually in their early to mid 20s. Poe, Ranpo, and Yosano are older than skk by two or three years and Aku and Atsu are younger by one.
