    Summary

    “Excuse me,” Dazai plants a hand on the short redhead boy’s muscled, bare shoulder. “Any chance you’re Chuuya Nakahara?”

    But, instead of an answer, the redhead wobbles and proceeds to collapse.

    “Woah there.” Dazai catches the boy in his arms, one under his shoulders and the other scooping up his knees, before the boy can face-plant into the dirt.

    A frown mars Dazai’s lips as he examines the boy: Same copper-colored hair, height, and shockingly dark eyebags as all the descriptions of Nakahara that the Port Mafia has obtained. But Dazai was told that Nakahara did not sleep, and, for whatever reason, the boy curling into his arms is clearly out cold.

    Well, this is quite the predicament.

     

    Or the 5+1 in which Dazai gets a crush on Chuuya, who can’t sleep unless in contact with No Longer Human, which leads to Chuuya never joining the mafia.

    Summary

    Chuuya said kindness like he wasn’t, for all his violence, still the kindest thing in the universe to have ever touched Dazai. To have known him, even at the height of his cruelty, and touch him softly now, in spite of it.

    Summary

    “Oi, Dazai. We’re here.” Chuuya reached into the car to shake Dazai’s shoulders a bit, rearranging his coat to lay over the man’s back. Dazai swayed and blinked up at him. Whatever painkillers he’d been given had stolen the sharpness from his face. Dazai looked fifteen again, wide-eyed and vulnerable.

    And then he smiled. He smiled and Chuuya’s heart stuttered because it was so fucking real, so small and different from all the painted faces he wore now.

    This was dangerous.

    Summary

    Even after four years apart, missions with Chuuya were a familiar dance of insults, bickering and seamless teamwork.

    Dazai didn't think this one would be any different.

    He was wrong.

    Summary

    “What,” Chuuya said, very eloquently and in a very controlled manner, “the fuck.”

    The fucking bastard had the audacity to tut at him, shaking his head in mock disappointment. “Chuuya, I told you, stop swearing in front of our daughter. She is at a very impressionable age.”

    “Our wha—,” Chuuya choked on his own words for the second time, his mind making horrible, screeching sounds of incomprehension. “Who the fuck allowed you anywhere near a child? Who is she?” He managed to ask finally.

    Dazai gasped dramatically with one hand over his heart, the other notably never leaving the girl's tight grip, “How can you not recognize your own daughter? The child that I painfully pushed out of my own body?”

    Summary

    He remembered the bandages covering thin limbs, a mirror of his own. And he remembered when the trembling stopped. When all fight left. He remembered empty red eyes as she returned into the hands of her captor. As she took his hand. As she said, “I‘m okay, mister. I don’t need your help.”

    Dazai stared into his own reflection, and for the first time in months—for the first time since he watched the light leave Oda’s eyes—he felt fury roar inside his veins. Dazai burned like he never had before.

    Her voice was quiet when she spoke, trembling and weak. “Are you…” she faltered, but swallowed and soldiered on, “are you like me?”

    “Yes,” Dazai answered, just as heavy footsteps echoed outside the dark little room, and shouts penetrated the silence, “I’m just like you.”

    Summary

    It was no secret he wore his heart on his sleeve, but that did not mean he wasnʼt aware of his kindness being taken advantage of.

    But when his worth was defined by that very kindness, he couldn't help but let himself be taken advantage of.

    Or: Chuuya has troubles with eating due to how much of a workaholic he is. Heʼs forced to acknowledge this tiny (read: huge) problem of his when Dazai discovers it. But everything turns out to be for the better as Dazai helps Chuuya recognize his own worth.

    Summary

    Prompt: Chuuya addressing Dazai as Osamu for like the first time and giving Dazai a heart attack. - Filled by Kibasix

    ----

    Sometimes Chuuya wonders why he even bothers trying to sleep…

    Between living with Dazai - which is, in and of itself, a challenge bordering on the impossible – having random members of the Armed Detective Agency turning up on his doorstep at all hours of the day and night – usually looking for the bandaged bastard – mostly without prior warning and working for the Port Mafia which often requires him to be on missions at odd hours; sleep has become something of a half-remembered dream, memories on which he looks back with a fond sort-of wistfulness.

    Since their reconnection, Dazai had been slowly showing bits of himself to Chuuya, and letting him fill in the blanks. It was.... progress from what they had before, in the mafia. It was at least something more than leaving everything unspoken. He didn’t want it to stop.

    Dazai drops by Chuuya's apartment on his day off, looking for comfort. Chuuya provides and then some.
