    Summary

    Children like you don't get to cry, the Headmaster in his head whispers, and he's not sure if it's the Headmaster saying it or himself, he's not sure which is worse.

    He is not in the Orphanage. He's not. He's free, now, he's gone, the Headmaster is gone, or at least far away from him, and Atsushi, curled up in the closet, the whirring of the fan sputtering in his ear, a reminder that he's not there anymore, doesn't know what to do.

    Leaving had never been an option. Only the good children got adopted—And Atsushi, as he knew, was not a good child. Cruel smiles, cruel hands, cruel words shouted across cold stone floors taught him that. And then he'd been kicked out, and he'd found a alleyway of stray cats and someone kind enough to take him in, and now…

    Atsushi isn't at the Orphanage anymore, but its effects still linger. (Or: Five times Kunikida's care confused Atsushi, one time he realized why, and another time Kunikida had to deal with his own past.)

    Summary

    It was gradual.

    It was so gradual, that Atsushi didn't notice it. Not at first.

    But, then it started to become a problem.

    And when confronted with a problem Atsushi can't solve right away, he does what he does best.

    Hide it and wait it out.

    Summary

    Atsushi shifted, his ears twitching involuntarily as the last remnants of his tiger form clung to him, tail swaying behind, ears still high and alert. Normally, he’d force them away immediately after a fight, but this time... he didn’t.

    or

    5 times Atsushi’s tail stayed, and one time it went away.

    Summary

    Atsushi doesn't meet Dazai by the river, and he doesn't join the agency. He saves himself from starving and figures out how to live, but he still ends up involved with both the Port Mafia and the ADA. Also, it's silly.

     

    Based on a Tumblr post. There's a grocery store frequented only by ADA and Port Mafia members. And now Atsushi.
