  2. Summary

    This is a series dedicated to the Bungou Stray Dogs relationship: Fyodor Dostoyevsky/Edogawa Ranpo; this is also regarded as the ship: "FyoRan" or "FyoPo."

    Summary:
    There is no plot to this series besides being a collection of oneshots created for the ship. However, there may be a few oneshots that have plot and connect to one another, but I will add those to separate series as well. This is done to spare the readers the trouble of looking through the entire series in an attempt to find part 2 of a fic.

    To my starving FyoRan/FyoPo shippers, I devote this series to you. For my two friends who always fed my imagination for this ship, I hope you take this as a satisfying offering for your own insatiable hunger.

    Summary

    “What does it take to break someone?”
    To break someone, you must crush their hope under the bite of your heel cruelly and mercilessly until they are too scared to hope anymore. A person too scared to hope will not run or fight, they will fall down and shatter, ready to be built back up in whichever way you wish.

    Ranpo is not someone easily broken. It is his strength that holds up the insurmountable might of the Armed Detective Agency, after all. But any amount of pressure dealt to a building is felt the most by its supporting pillars.

     

    Sequel to The Candle Forever Burning
    Heavily inspired by Astre_Red’s, “Detective and Hidden Jewel.”

    Decided to bookmark the stories I would recommend to other readers. Although discontinued, this 4 chapter fanfic is absolutely perfect. The whole concept is Fyodor trying to get Ranpo on his side by destroying the agency's hopes and in return getting rid of Ranpo's. That's the whole fic. You get other character angst like Yosano dealing with some soldiers from her past and Kenji's village going through a murder mystery (sadly didn't get finished), but it's mostly Ranpo angst and centric. Its writing is magnificent and inspires my own to be more detailed. However, I will never compare to this masterpiece. The Ranpo attention is amazing. The Fyodor obsession is amazing. This whole fic is amazing. Would recommend to the Ranpo-centric lovers, cause this whole thing is mostly about him.

    Summary

    As the saying goes
    Two heads are always
    Better than one.
    --
    “I’m a detective,” Fyodor replied, not quite proud of his title, but smug enough to make it sound like he was superior.

    “Well duh. I’m asking why you’re here past your work curfew. Detectives don’t go to crime scenes alone, so I assume you snuck back because you’re hard-headed enough to want to solve this case, but clearly you can’t do it. So why are you still here?”

    Fyodor’s face scrunched up, brows furrowing. “Well if you’re so smart, how about you solve the case yourself?”

    “Of course I will!” Ranpo threw his hands in the air. He dug into his pocket and brought out a pair of round glasses, pushing them up his nose.

    Not even a minute had passed and Ranpo suddenly pointed forward, and for the first time, Fyodor saw his eyes. They glittered green with great intelligence, possibly calculating a hundred thoughts per second, and for a moment, Fyodor went breathless. The man grinned at Fyodor, as if sensing Fyodor’s amazement, and declared, “The body…!”

    Another amazing fanfic. The universe role building, the character depth and the mysterious plot is fantastic. Fyodor's perspective is, in my opinion, fairly accurate. If you don't mind the ship or in fact ship FyoRan, then this is a lovely read. Even so, the mystery takes the cake and you can kind of ignore the ship. Less of angst, more of mystery and an actual book plot. That's what makes it so good. When the villan got revealed I was like: HUH WHAT WHAT and the plot twist too, I was so mad (in a good way) literally got me wanting to write a second fic/gift of this. The fluff is cute too! Fyodor complimenting Ranpo is so cute. I loved it. This fic is one of my favorites, seriously.

    A spectacular alternate outcome for Untold Origins! I always love the scenarios of "someone else finds Ranpo instead of Fukuzawa" since they're always such interesting reads. The way they wrote Fyodor and him manipulating Ranpo yet still being sincere because he cares for him is amazing. The whole "you're an abnormality" "I'm not an alien!" and wanting to be accepted bit kind of inspired some things in my Do I Inspire You? Fic. Awesome read!

    Summary

    Nothing is right.

    This time, a lone assassin turned bodyguard does not take in a genius child and build him a home. Instead, it is a wandering writer who takes an outcasted, war veteran swordsman-in-training and founds a sanctuary for others like him.
    The dodgy orphanage by the outskirts of Yokohama does not cage a tiger this time around, and Atsushi does not rescue Dazai by the river. Rather, the cage is for someone who is never permitted human touch, and when Fyodor finds himself by that very same riverbank, it is Ranpo Edogawa who approaches him.

    Nothing is the way it should be, but that does not stop the clock from ticking.

    An amazing role shuffle AU with amazing writing. The take on Fyodor's character is just perfect. His characterization as a good guy and protagonist is awesome. Very good! It's sad that there's only 4 chapters, but damn are those chapters long and detailed. So it's worth the read. I love how each role in the shuffle works, Kabukeo (on tumblr) put a lot of thought into it and it sets up beautifully. Ranpo_writer did an amazing job giving it life too! A beautiful fanfic and AU. Seriously worth the read.

    Summary

    Special.

    If Ranpo had a penny every time he'd hear that word, he was quite sure he wouldn't have to fight rats for their meals to survive one more freaking day on these awful streets ever again.

    Of course, nobody had called him special in years but Ranpo could clearly remember days where he would be surprised if he wasn't called special by anyone. Whether it be his parents, their faces beaming, or, after they had left him, the police officers at the academy, frustrated with the amount of problems he seemed to case.

    Neither bothered to explain how exactly he was special. Might've saved him a great deal of trouble later.

    It didn't matter anymore. Not when Ranpo had almost evaporated under the summer sun, his stomach growling from hunger, hope lost of ever finding somewhere where he could at least get a couple of minutes of shade, if not a semi-decent job.

    Little did he know, sooner than he thought, hunger would be the least of his worries.

    This fic was absolutely amazing, perfection. I'm so sad that it's only one chapter, I obsessed over this for so long. The idea of a mute Ranpo is so interesting, it would put a lot of new things into his personality which this fic tackled. For one, much more silent which is very VERY unlike him. Also the trauma that came from it, oh it's amazing. I love this because it's so accurate to what could've happened if no one found him and he was left to fend for himself on the streets. Seriously a good read. I need this fic continued please, or given a gift/part 2. PLEASE
