    Summary

    "You aren't allowed to die without me, mackerel. If you go, I go. We do it together or not at all."

    Dazai Osamu thought allowing himself to be captured by the Port Mafia is just another move on the board. He’s prepared for the shackles and the damp stone of the dungeon. Most of all, he’s prepared for the magnificent, violent entrance of Nakahara Chuuya, the inevitable explosion of gravity he’s missed for four years.

    But the door doesn't break. Akutagawa looks at him with a pity that feels like a death sentence.
    Dazai spent two years undercover to save his soul, assuming his partner was busy cursing his name. He didn't know that during those years of absolute silence, Chuuya was busy dragging the Tsurumi River for a body that didn't exist. He didn't know that the car bomb was a "parting gift" was interpreted as a suicide note Chuuya failed to stop.

    Now, Dazai is standing in a dusty office filled with letters addressed to a ghost and a hat left in a crater. Chuuya is gone. He vanished four years ago, convinced Dazai broke their pact.
    Soukoku is a balance of two. If Chuuya is gone, Dazai is hovering over an abyss. He’ll burn Yokohama to find him one blood-stained coordinate at a time.

    Summary

    Since his capture five years ago, Chuuya has been listed as missing. Shuuji, born during his capture, has no official papers to speak of. The ones used to get a seat on the plane are fake. Not one single document will endure actual, thorough inspection. The moment his son is apprehended, he will not be let go until they know for sure who his guardian is. Shuuji also has a little note in his pocket, a blank piece of paper that he’s supposed to keep with him at all times until he’s left in the care of his father.

    His other father.

    His next of kin.

    Once protected by the authorities, Shuuji is instructed to repeat the same sentence over and over again until he’s listened to. Shuuji will not cooperate until they do as he says.

    ‘Take me to the ADA.’

    Or: instead of a family reunion in the middle of the street, Shuuji meets his biological parent after escaping the evil organization that captured his dad five years ago. With the help of his father he may help save his dad before it's too late.

    Or-Or: What would have happened if Chuuya was taken captive years ago and has just now managed to spare his child the torment of a life in captivity.

    Summary

    "What the hell did you do?," Chuuya snarls, fists digging into the collar of Dazai's bland-ass beige coat.

    It's never 'what happened to you', or 'are you okay'. Because whatever happened, whatever caused Arahabaki to howl in his chest, caught somewhere between elation and agony, it surely is the bandaged bastard's fault.

    It's always Dazai's fault.

    Chuuya goes to check on Dazai after 55 minutes. A missing scene ficlet.

    Summary

    “Didn’t they tell you it's illegal to be this pretty?”

    “Didn’ they tell you it's illegal t—” Chuuya doesn't finish the sentence, forgetting what he wanted to say.

    Dazai is awfully close to his face right now. Strangely, Chuuya doesn't mind. He definitely drank too much. There must be no other reason.

    Or: Two drunk idiots who like each other but would rather die than admit it out loud.

    Summary

    Four years after his defection, Dazai Osamu is captured and surgically stripped of No Longer Human by the Port Mafia's ultimate chemical weapon, the 'Apathy Anchor.' Reduced to a psychologically fragile, ordinary man, he is delivered as a broken trophy directly to Executive Nakahara Chuuya.

    Summary

    Chuuya has no memories from when he was a child.

    So when Kouyou entrusts a de-aged Chuuya (who only has his childhood memories that reflect his body's age) to the Armed Detective Agency, and most importantly Dazai's, care, Dazai considers a prime opportunity to find out what Chuuya's life was like. If only to tease him about it later!

    Yet he wasn't quite prepared for the revelations about Chuuya's past that he would find... nor what it means for his understanding of Chuuya.

    (Plus, he has to resist pinching those Chibi cheeks lest he accidentally creates a singularity. It's not fair!)

    Summary

    After sixty-two hours of non-stop work, all Chuuya wants is his bed. What he gets is his traitorous ex-partner curled up on his expensive suede sofa, delirious, shivering, and bleeding out from a wound that smells like rot. Dazai is hiding—from the Agency, from the Mafia, and from a new enemy that poisoned him with something No Longer Human can't nullify.

    With all of Yokohama compromised, Dazai decided his only safehouse left was the one place no one would ever look: the penthouse of the man who hates him most. Chuuya is faced with a choice: throw the bastard out, or deal with the glowing, necrotic wound.

    Book 3: The pursuit of Truth and Justice threaten everything the Demon King has built, and for once it’s not actually Yuuri’s fault.

    Summary

    Humans have feared the merpeople for centuries. Constant threats of shipwrecks, siren songs, and drowned crews have made them a thorn in the side of Shin Makoku's maritime economy. Yuuri, the Second Prince, was raised to see them as a threat at worst and a pest at the least… until he met Wolfram.

    Wolfram is nothing like the tales. Fierce, proud, and bewitchingly beautiful, the merman forces Yuuri to question everything he knows about the war between land and sea. However, their forbidden love puts them both in the crosshairs of a kingdom determined to wipe out the merfolk with a deadly new weapon.

    Now Yuuri must choose between his princedom and love for a creature he was supposed to kill.

    This is a repost/revision of my old story “Syrena” from ff.net.

    This is the sequel to A Future in Which I Don't Get My Wish (but maybe it's better this way) so please read that story first!

    After his trip to the future, Dazai has not been doing very great.

    He doesn't want any of this to be true.... please don't say that the insult jar is coming soon!

    "New shirt? What are you tal-"

    Oh.

    Summary

    In a world where soulmates reveal themselves through dreams, young Dazai clings to the hope offered by the visions of his destined partner. But one day, the dreams stop. They are replaced by darkness that leaves him feeling empty. Fully believing his soulmate had passed away, Dazai lost all hope he had for the future.

    Years later, a whispered rumor reaches him: Arahabaki, a monstrous god of calamity, was created in a secret government experiment. Intrigued, Dazai investigates, only to find not a monster, but a man in a containment tube. A man who looks his age… and stirs haunting, vivid memories of the soulmate he believed was long gone.

    This fanfiction takes place in an AU where Chuuya was never rescued from the facility and is still in a test tube until an adult Dazai finds him.

    Summary

    "Generally speaking," Dazai says, and he doesn't sound anything like the Dazai that Chuuya knows, "I can't imagine I'd go through the effort of faking my death when dying is both easier to achieve and more of a pleasant experience. Though it depends on the how and the why, of course."

    "Bastard, stop talking in circles and–"

    "Boss, huh?" Dazai says, and Chuuya breaks off. It sounds wrong, from Dazai, and Chuuya lets Dazai go. Dazai drops down to both knees, and then sits there, gazing past Chuuya and looking at the makeshift shrine on the imposing wooden desk. There's something dark in his gaze, and it's almost comforting. Almost, because it's familiar; it's a knife in the darkness that Chuuya has watched bring down hundreds of people.

    "What," Chuuya snaps. "Going to tell me you want the position back?"

    "Back," Dazai murmurs, drumming his fingers on his knees before he finally climbs back up to his feet. His hands go into his pockets, his posture relaxed and easy, and none of it makes any sense. "Chuuya, was I really?"

    Summary

    Being ex-partners forced to work together again was more exhausting than either of them cared to admit.

    Chuuya craved clarity but feared the truth.
    Dazai already knew the truth but was too much of a coward to face it.

    Or

    The one time neither of them walked away.
