Im Adopting Him And His Name Is Fleur 🌸🌿

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

Teenage Kimiko identifying with they/them pronouns? 😊

Yessssssss

I hadn't even thought of Kimiko being nonbinary but it fits so well!!

~~~

Sighing, Kimiko frowned and passed a hand through their now much shorter hair. Instead of the long, straight hair they had since childhood, they now had short, shaggy hair

Maybe not the best hairstyle, but Kimiko hadn't been going for that. Just anything to help them feel more comfortable in their skin

With their long hair gone, they didn't look like a girl as much as they had. Now, they could definitely see more of their father's features in their face

But the issue was, Kimiko hadn't asked their dad or Roman to take them to get their hair cut

Instead, they had asked a friend to go with them as it was almost all cut off

Nervously, Kimiko looked at themself in a small, portable mirror. Their dads shouldn't get too upset with them

Or at least, that's what they were hoping

Putting the mirror away, Kimiko finally entered their apartment building and took the elevator up to Roman's penthouse

Opening the door, Kimiko was greeted by the sound of the TV going. Fidgeting, Kimiko took a breath and closed the door

"Hey, da!" They called out. "I'm home!"

"Welcome back!" He called back. "Wanna watch with me?"

"Sure."

Straightening their back, Kimiko walked into the living room and smiled at how their dad was lounging on the couch

His small goatee had spots of grey in it, along with his roots in his much longer hair. He looked away from the TV and flashed Kimiko a smile

"Our team is winning so far."

Smiling back shyly, Kimiko walked up

"Good to hear it. They've been doing good this season."

With only a small amount of hesitation, Kimiko sat down and cuddled into their dad. Who brought a hand up to stroke their hair

"Any shorter and I would think you signed up for the army." He chuckled

Biting their lip, Kimiko glanced up at him

"Do you not like it?"

"It suits you." He smiled and then looked thoughtful. "But it'll be hard to braid. I remember that being annoying for me when I cut my hair short."

"Really?" Kimiko looked at him closely

"Mmhm. I always loved having my hair braided by Uncle Deck as a kid. But it was nice getting it cut, too. Made me feel more comfortable with who I was."

Kimiko blinked at him in surprise, but felt a smile nearly split their face in half

They shouldn't have even bothered being worried about their dad being upset

He was just like them after all

I hope you enjoyed friend!

Luke, to Deckard: Tell her.

Deckard, to Sam: I apologize for saying “fuck” earlier.

Sam: You just said it again.

Deckard: I am not a role model.

Sam: Obviously.

Pepper: that’s unfair! That’s not how your suppose to win!

Harley: [munching on cookies] You think he’s the winner? Please, Peter and I just used fake money to buy 200 real cookies.

Deckard: Luke and I are no longer friends

Luke: Deck, that is the worst way to tell people we’re dating

Another emotional verse:

Tú eres la tristeza de mis ojos

Que lloran en silencio por tu amor

Me miro en el espejo y veo en mi rostro

El tiempo que he sufrido por tu adiós

Obligo a que te olvide el pensamiento

Pues, siempre estoy pensando en el ayer

Prefiero estar dormido que despierto

De tanto que me duele que no estés

Rough ranslation:

You are the sadness in my eyes

That cry in silence for your love

I look at the mirror and I see in my face

The time that I have suffered since your goodbye

I force my mind to forget you

Since I’m always thinking of yesterday

I prefer to be asleep than awake

As it feels too painful that you are gone

Small hurt-no-comfort headcanon I just thought of.

Bruce once accidentally stumbled upon Jason listening to Amor Eterno on Catherine Todd’s birthday. Jason was embarrassed to have been caught listening to such an emotional song, but Bruce reassured him it was perfectly okay and spent the day talking with Jason about Catherine.

Once, after Jason died, Bruce abruptly cut patrol short after overhearing someone playing Amor Eterno in their house.

Even now that Jason’s back, Bruce can’t hear the song without wanting to tear up and hide away from people to grieve alone.

Background below the cut

Background: Amor Eterno is a song written by Juan Gabriel (an icon) who wrote this song in honor of his mother, who had passed away.

One popular version of the song is sung by Rocío Dúrcal (also iconic). She is said to have sung the song in honor of her son, who had also passed away.

VERY rough translation of the chorus (to maintain the ideas rather than literal translation)

How I wish

That you were still living

That your dear eyes had never closed

And I was still looking at them

Eternal (and unforgettable) love

Sooner or later I’ll be with you

So that we can continue loving each other

Yeah, I still tear up every time I hear it but that doesn’t stop me from listening to it

My pleasure! 💞💞💞

@omnivorousshipper My first Photoshop creation, I present to thee: Dominic as a Minecraft Iron Golem! (Reference to Omni’s Minecraft stream-which y'all should definitely check out!)

Both characters are intimidating at first sight but really have a heart of gold

Will protect their chosen family with their lives 

Will adopt and care for anyone as their own 

Can be gentle but will kill you if family is threatened

I AM SCREECHING. THANK YOU SO MUCH FRIEND
