Summary
Oh, he had taken a misstep. He shouldn’t have placed his touch where it didn’t belong.
“Who are you?” a voice questioned. Untethered from polite inquiry, the voice asked without reservation.
Dazai remained unmoved at its tone. Wasn’t the story meant to play out differently? Those who spoke to him knew of him, wasn’t that right?
No one spoke to the demon child.
But this keeper of petals so bright dared to. And it dared to do it again. “Hello? Anyone in there?” it said, impatience hooked in its words.
(Or, a first meeting in an underground doctor's office)

Summary
Chuuya should be furious at yet another betrayal. Left behind once again—never a first choice, and that’s how it’s always been. Another part of him is accustomed and has been prepared for it. Yet, preparation is never enough to confront the real thing.
He should be furious, but he can’t hold onto it long enough. It slips from his fingers—he releases it.
(Or, Chuuya's on his own for now)

Summary
“Let’s say…I liked a girl,” he began. Chuuya couldn’t have been prepared for the scenario given, nor did he want it.
“Okay? You like a girl…and?” Chuuya responded, wanting to see this through as little as possible but not wanting the other to know as much.
Dazai laid back against the couch, legs spread out on the floor. “If you were me, how would you…get her to reciprocate your feelings?”
(Or, Dazai asks a question Chuuya dreads)

Summary
The other swallowed, his head held low, his hair covering his face once more. “It’s a strange…curiosity.”
Ranpo cupped his cheeks. “Eddy, let’s consider what my job is, and who you are, and then forget your silly thoughts.”
Edgar huffed a laugh. “Alright,” he murmured. He raised his head up. “Your task tonight is exactly what my mind has conjured up, isn’t it?”
Ranpo nodded, a malevolent glee igniting his sly irises. “Won’t that be fun?”
Edgar gripped him closer. “May I watch you?” he spoke quietly.
(Or, Edgar begs of Ranpo a request he hadn't expected)

Summary
Emotions and the intelligence necessary for them were estranged from Ranpo's mind. He could manipulate those of another’s, make them feel what he needed them to for his end goal, but he couldn’t begin to grasp this kaleidoscope of feelings refracting colors and light into his being.
He wanted more—he was a glutton if nothing else. A selfish, insatiable glutton.

Summary
Bar Lupin.
He remembered this name, with the voice of an uncharacteristically eager teen spouting about an interesting fellow they had come upon. Ranpo was curious. He was used to tangents about small slugs, not a serene man with a penchant for whiskey.
Finding himself before a treasured answer, Ranpo continued forward...
(Or, Ranpo meets a fascinating man)

Summary
“As your lover—”
Narrowing his eyes, Poe interrupts, “You should know what I want?”
Face aghast, Ranpo exclaims, “What about what I want?!”
Poe raises a brow, crossing one leg over the other beneath his desk. “What do I want, Ranpo? Go on. Deduce the answer. And no using Ultra Deduction,” he challenges, a visible lilac eye sharp…and beautifully striking.
Ranpo can’t help finding every fiber of Poe’s essence being anything but worth reverence at the moment.
(Or, Poe teaches Ranpo patience)

Summary
Leaning forward, Ranpo’s gaze opened, striking Chuuya far deeper than he ever liked—gods, how he hated Ranpo’s probing stare.
“‘Zai was captured on his last assignment. Mori handed me the task to handle it,” he blandly stated, expression blanketed by a sheet Chuuya couldn’t see through.
Not that he could right then, in any case. His hands cramping made him realize how tightly he’d been gripping his own arms, bruises surely lining his skin now.
(Or, Chuuya is forced into a mission with Ranpo, and it is entirely Dazai's fault)

Summary
“Where would we go?”
“… Away.”
“That’s not an answer.”
“I don’t know. Wouldn’t anywhere be better than here?”
Pauses. A breath’s moment of reprieve. Reprieve from the roiling, deathly canyon burrowing its home within their stomachs.
“Yes. Anywhere would be better than here. Take me away from here. Please.”
(Or, Chuuya plans a trip)

Summary
“Chuuya…?” They mutter.
“Yeah?” He numbly replies, still blinking at the mirage before him.
“Oh…” They exhale, the silence only lasting a few seconds. “Well, it seems a tiny dog remains tiny, regardless of gender.”
“Regardless of…” He starts. “Oi, who the fuck are you calling tiny?!”
(Or, Dazai goes missing, and in his place is...another Dazai...)

Summary
"You aren’t supposed to be here. If he finds you down here-”
“What would he do?” Dazai tilted his head, his wisps of feathery brown gently swaying with him.
Ranpo’s eyes snapped open, and Dazai was instantly at a loss. Something writhed in a burning inferno within his bloodshot sage hues, something violent and lethal.
Deeply narrowed greens stuck their hold out and wrapped tightly around Dazai’s resolve, crushing it to the point of suffocation, until its flame was close to burning out. “You are never to cross paths with that man, do you understand me?”
(Or, Dazai disrupts a lesson)

Summary
He tilted his head, his smile all sharp edges. “You? Win against me?”
“I have before, or have you forgotten?” She smiled, a beautifully ugly promise lying within.
An imperceptible flick of his wrist and his knife tore through the air, impaling the wall to the left of Kouyou’s head.
Glare incensed, Kouyou lowly snarled, “You’ve damaged my wall, you foolish loon.”
“I really don’t care, you wretched witch. Now will you take him in?”
(Or, Ranpo makes a deal)

Summary
Ranpo had run out of luck. He was known for his impeccable mission record, for being able to get by on wits alone. There was no such chance this time.
Hanging his head, Ranpo sank to the ground, accepting his rotten situation. He’d catch his breath before making his next move, to scour the city for the supplies necessary to make it back home. His current location allowed him the necessary time to formulate a plan (he wasn’t quite as fast as Dazai on this skill, but he easily held his own). Anyone with functioning sensibilities would take one look at him and turn away, danger written in every line of his being—humans were self-preserving, he expected no less.
At least, he did. Until someone decided to take any shred of that presumption and dump it into the dumpster reeking up his nostrils beside him.
(Or, Port Mafia executive Edogawa Ranpo encounters a mysterious American)

Summary
“Ne, Chuu. What’s got you up so late, hm?”
Laying his head against his arms, Chuuya shrugs to himself, “Don’t know. I’m tired as fuck, but my dumbass brain doesn’t get the memo.”
“Ah!" They chime. "Chuuya must’ve met with Mori-san today, isn’t that right? Something about him ensuring his most loyal executive is kept in check?”
(Or, Chuuya can't sleep, and his boss is to blame)

Summary
Fondly smiling at whatever he finds in Dazai’s expression, Chuuya utters, “Whatever’s going through that brain of yours, forget it. I make my own decisions, no one makes them for me. I know what I get myself into, you know that.”
He does. Chuuya is smarter, quicker than he appears. Anyone able to keep up with someone like Dazai is someone anyone should fear. Dazai’s sentiments are illogical, yet they persist. It’s annoyingly bothersome…
Just when did Chuuya learn to read him so well?
(Or, Double Black tastes the bliss of domesticity, yet they're still a mess)

The names, the comments, their past—it drudges up something ugly and scarred, and Dazai was slowly retreating into the far reaches of their mind. Chuuya watches the regression, fury boiling beneath his skin.

Summary
They don’t, they don’t know better. Ranpo knows, he knows. The President told him so—he’s not like the rest, he’s an ability user. So why…why can’t he stop those words from crushing his chest? It’s so hard to breathe.

Summary
He quickly removes him and his partner from the premises, before anyone could realize what has happened to their resilient tactician. A person they would never once believe could be beaten in such a distinct way—the deepest crevices of their mind split open for outsiders to dig their unforgiving knives into. Chuuya watches Dazai’s back as much as he can, but the damage has been done, he wasn’t there.
Gods, come back to me, Osamu…
(Or, Dazai takes a severe hit)

Summary
Dazai immediately dumps himself onto the couch, popping open his bottle of sake. Chuuya throws his coat off before joining him, uncorking some wine bottle he just grabbed off the shelf, chugging a generous amount down. Blankly staring at the bottle in hand, Dazai mutters, “This will be the only time I offer-”
“If you ask me to a double suicide, I will knock your ass out.” Dazai grumbles to himself, sipping more of his shitty drink.
“Such a rude slug… Didn’t even let me ask.”
(Or, Double Black fails a mission, so they drink the night away)

Summary
They slowly shake their head, side to side, “His methods-”
“Fuck if they worked. You were killing yourself at his command. My loyalties changed a long time ago.” Breathing in a wavering breath, Dazai mutters, “Where do they lie…now?”
“Where do yours lie, Dazai?”
(Or, Dazai and Chuuya admit to what they've been yearning for)
