    Summary

    Scraps of Victor's thoughts and feelings from the beginning of Season 1 to the end of Season 2.

    ___

    Am I interrupting?

    That was the first time he truly saw. The beautiful, golden eyes of someone who conceived life the same way he did. Progress was everything; legacy was all that mattered. There was no point in living if not for a purpose. Was it egotistical? Probably. Desperate? Certainly. And he could read them, the same convictions, right in that man’s anguish, in the subtle sigh that escaped from his lips just before he stepped into the abyss. Just before he stopped him.

    Individually, they were destined to doom. But together, maybe…

    Summary

    In ten minutes, Nakahara Chuuya’s first day at the Armed Detective Agency will officially begin.

    Except—Chuuya doesn't show. Not even on the next day. Or the next, or the week after that.

    And so: Dazai waits. Honestly speaking, he’s no good at it; between the two of them, it’s Chuuya who’s racked up more experience. After all, Dazai leaves people the way Chuuya builds moorings in them.


    Or: a god learns to leave his shrine.

    Summary

    “No. No one who's sane enough would accept me shooting them for practice.”

    Dazai catches his leg as he kicks him again and throws him to the ground. Chuuya grumbles through his teeth, closing his eyes more out of anger than because the blow hurt. Fucker, son of a bitch.

    Dazai crouches down next to him smiling. His smile is a strange gesture on his face.

    “It's a good thing you have me, isn't it, Chuuya?” he singsongs, grabbing him by the arm to hurry him to straighten up with one hand while he tucks the other under his own coat, which hangs neatly over his shoulders.

    Chuuya was fifteen years old when he shot Dazai for the first time.

    Summary

    But there was no God of destruction trying to take over him. Chuuya, quietly standing in the agency’s infirmary with his partner’s cold hand in his, came to the crushing realization that he had lost the one person he had always wished to keep close.

    Or, a mission requires Dazai to fake his death. He doesn’t think informing Chuuya about it is necessary.

    Summary

    “I’ve cried only once since joining the mafia, and only ghosts were there to see it.” While Dazai was speaking, it didn’t appear as if he was in the room, hardly even registering Chuuya’s presence next to him. “That was the most emotion I had ever felt, and it was that same night I wrote that letter.”

    Or:

    Chuuya finds a letter addressed to him in Dazai's desk.
