Shaw Brothers; The fate of the furious | Dynasty.
I’m sorry, I think I’m obsessed with this movie.
I cannot thank @katlynne-lyons enough for this stunning commission! This is absolutely beautiful and captures Deckard's character perfectly!
Make sure to go check out the artist's blog and artwork!
I always headcanon Deckard likes to wear dresses and feeling fancy. It doesn't matter if he's wearing a suit or dress, he'll kick your ass regardless!
mary h.how many bsd novels are there i thought it was just the agency aku one and the dazai one but theres more apparently?? how many different bsd spin offs are there i am so confused
OHHHH BOYS. BESTIE YOU ARE NOT READY. THERE ARE SO MANY. and i know this because i own every single novel that has an english release (i'm linking all the ones that do):
Osamu Dazai's Entrance Exam - this is the one with the Azure Messenger, infamously adapted into the present day in the middle of season 1 when it's actually set 2 years in the past as Dazai's entrance exam into the ADA.
The Untold Origins of the Detective Agency - what the title says, currently being adapted in the beginning of season 4. The novel also includes a short story set the day before Atsushi's entrance exam about the ADA planning what his exam should be.
Osamu Dazai and the Dark Era - this is one of the Dazai ones, about his time in the mafia with Ango and Oda, adapted in the beginning of season 2.
Dazai, Chuuya, Age Fifteen - another Dazai one, the one (poorly) adapted at the beginning of season 3, about how Chuuya joined the mafia. Has a currently ongoing manga adaptation.
Storm Bringer - sequel to Fifteen, longest of all the novels by far, set when Dazai and Chuuya are 16 and we find out more about Chuuya's origin story. And so much more, it really is a thicc novel.
55 Minutes - the second longest novel after Storm Bringer yet the least talked about (despite how much it elaborates on skill singularities and the nature of abilities). It's a self-contained story of the ADA going to solve a case on an artificial island off the coast of Yokohama, featuring two new ability users H. G. Wells and Jules Verne (hence a relatively sci-fi heavy novel and i wrote a 2k+ word essay analysing all the science behind it lmao)
Dead Apple - novelisation of the movie with some extra scenes and more elaboration on some details in the movie. Also has an ongoing manga adaptation with official english release.
BEAST - this is the Akutagawa in the ADA and Atsushi in the PM one, with a completed manga adaptation (also released in english) as well as a live-action movie that came out last year.
Gaiden (Another Story): Ayatsuji Yukito vs. Kyogoku Natsuhiko - the novel has no english release yet, but it's a spin-off about different ability users and i think Ango is the only recurring character from the main series there. There is an ongoing manga adaptation which does have an official english release.
The Day I Picked Up Dazai - i don't think this one is formally released yet as it was a bonus novel given out at the screening of the BEAST movie. It's divided into Side A and Side B and i haven't read this one yet but i believe it's about how Dazai and Oda first met, where each side follows the other's perspective. There's a completed fan-translation of both sides by @popopretty.
Kunikida and Katai's Magnificent Days - this is a really sweet short story about Kunikida and Katai's friendship and i have no idea where the official version is from but there is a fan-translation of it you can read here.
In addition to BEAST and Gaiden there is also Wan! which is the super cute casual chibi spin-off manga with no stakes and no angst and only vibes, it is still ongoing and has an official english release. Some of the chapters were adapted into the Wan! anime series with 12 episodes (they are shorter episodes of 10 min each) and it is literally free therapy and will give you a year's worth of serotonin!!
There is also the bsd anthology series, which are side stories written and illustrated by different mangakas, there is no official english release that i know of but you can find fan-translations of some of the side stories here and there online.
We also have bsd mayoi or Tales of the Lost, the mobile gacha game which also includes a high school AU storyline (bsd gakuen)!
Other than these, there are also several stage plays, although it's harder to find content on these in english since they are only performed in Japan.
Bsd fans are truly the most well-fed fans of all time sometimes i forget how much content we have and still we keep getting more, it's unreal
Edit: I love all of you who replied with yes, but could you spread it? Because I was thinking of making it themed, but i don’t want to put in so much effort for only 5-6 people to show up. Also, this server might be late, after March-ish, because its exam season for me. I hope you peeps understand!
I highly recommend inviting your friends to do randomly romantic & weird fun stuff. Invite them to a picnic at the park and show up with a kite. Throw tea parties with tiny finger sandwiches. Have a Crafts Day where everyone gets to decorate their own hats/accessories/teacups for future tea parties. Encourage shenanigans & surprises! Host a Costume Movie Night but put a different theme on each invitation (formal wear, pajamas, last year's halloween costume)! Drink sparkling juice out of champagne glasses during a Board Game Night where the winners have to speak in a character accent for the rest of the evening. Infinite possibilities, but it's your job to manifest them!
If you want a fun weird friend group, first you must encourage fun weirdness!!! Cultivate the garden you want to live in.
they're saving my life
i do enjoy "living weapon" characters but specifically living weapons who did in fact do absolutely horrific things which at least a part of them enjoyed and thought was good and right at the time, and that no amount of not knowing any better or guilt they feel in hindsight will ever make up for. i love living weapons who are "irredeemable", and no it's not their fault that they were made that way or pointed in the directions they were by the hand that wielded them, and yes they are victims, but so were their victims. living weapons who some people will never be able to forgive, but who still wake up every day and try to do better than what's expected of them. a sword that uses its blade to cut wheat to make bread for the people who once lived in fear of its arc falling on their heads.
Okay let me add my five cents to the Zaunite au, where Viktor didn’t make it to the academy and remained in Zaun.
He was trying to invent on his own, but he desperately needed money for his research. And that’s when Silco appeared…
Luke: You know what strength is? Forgiving a person who hasn’t even said sorry.
Deckard: Not to be dramatic, but I’d literally rather die.
All the asks! Deck and whoever else on a Gordon Ramsay show? ^^
If you've been watching me streams, you'll be hearing how I've been binge watching Hell's Kitchen lately lol. I just love the idea of Deckard being a contestant!
~~~
Deckard stood with the other constantants of Hell's Kitchen, all waiting for that day's challenge
So far, the competition was going smoothly. Deckard had taken control of his team easily, teaching them better methods and settling tempers
It was satisfying to see the group of men coming together to work as a unit under his tutelage. He even talked with the women after their challenges go coach them
He could tell the producers of the show hated his guts
They wanted drama, not every waking hour they had of Deckard bringing everyone together
At least Ramsay loved him and his cooking
Deckard could talk hours with the Scotsman and never grow bored. Especially when they talked about their kids
Even thinking about Sam and Luke made Deckard's heart pang. He missed them so much. He couldn't wait until he could cook for them again
Suddenly, Ramsay was walking towards them. Deckard straightened his back
"Today, none of you will be allowed to cook anything."
Deckard raised an eyebrow
"Instead," Ramsay smiled, "you'll be teaching someone else to cook."
Deckard had to hold back his smile. This would be too easy
"And I'm sure you'll recognize you students."
With a wave of his hand, a line of people walked into the dining room. Deckard heard several gasps and cries of joy as Ramsay introduced the contestants family members
And that's when Deckars spotted him
Owen
The little bastard was lined up with the other family members, smirking like crazy and keeping eye contact with Deckard
Who glared at his little brother
"Today's challenge, you'll have to instruct your family member how to cook a dish. Simple enough, yeah?"
Deckard glared harder at Owen
Owen smiled back smugly
"Well, what are you waiting for? Get going!"
Everyone ran for the kitchens
---
"Next, Deckard and his little brother, Owen." Ramsay called out and waved to them
So far, it had been a close tie between the teams and Deckard would break it one way or another
As he and Owen stepped up, Deckard kept his face neutral. This was going to be... entertaining
"Please show me what you made." Ramsay said and Owen lifted the metal dome
To reveal a plate of random fruit cut up
Ramsay's face was filled with shock
Owen was smiling proudly
Deckard hung his head
Seemed like the producers knew how to get him off the show
~~~
I hope you enjoyed friend!
