    Summary

    Dazai's used to people looking at him with fear. He's the Demon Prodigy of the Port Mafia, unfeeling and inhuman. It would be strange if people didn't find him frightening.

    But, recently, he's not the one they're all flinching away from. He's not the one they whisper about. He's not the one they call a monster.

    Bit by bit, he pieces the clues together-- and he realizes that there are people in the mafia who don't like Chuuya.

    Obviously, he has to do something about this.

    Summary

    After Ranpo's only shot at romance in his entire twenty-six years of living at his cute rival in an investigation competition, imagine his complete and utter embarrassment when the only person who ever caught his heart's attention shows up six years later with an elaborate plan to get revenge?

    WHY?

    All I ever wanted was a date, you gorgeous insane man, Ranpo thinks miserably as Poe stares at him with a maniacal smirk behind bangs even thicker than before. Why are you doing this to me? Did I really mess up that bad?

    Ranpo pretends not to remember him at first. It's the only way to preserve his dignity while he's actually trying not to crumble under the weight of his stupid twenty year old past-self, and usually he'd rather DIE than call himself stupid.

    But slowly, the embarrassment fades. Because Ranpo realises something that day, something that makes his brain stir with a very unfamiliar emotion that he thinks is called 'longing'.

    Poe is so much more brilliant than Ranpo could have ever imagined.

    alternately, the story of Ranpo Edogawa feeling constantly confused by his clever and adorable new friend.

    Summary

    “Uh, sorry, but unfortunately I already have a date to the dance.”

    “Oh, really?” Tachihara says, sounding disappointed. He pauses for a second, clearly processing what Chuuya’s just told him, and then says, “Who is it?”

    Chuuya certainly hadn’t budgeted for this. Panicking, he tries to think of the people that he knows that are single, and before he knows it, the first name that comes to mind is slipping out of his mouth. “With Dazai.” / After a momentary lapse in judgment, high school student Chuuya ends up having to pretend to date his enemy Dazai to get Tachihara off of his back - and quickly finds it's nowhere as bad as he'd imagined.

    Summary

    When Chuuya wakes up in an unfamiliar room, with an unfamiliar man who offers to make him breakfast, he will have to figure out just how he got here, and why. Nothing is as easy or as simple as it seems, and nothing makes sense. There's far too much that he doesn't remember, and everything's confusing.

    So what will he do when he realizes that the unfamiliar man is actually someone very close to him? What will he do when he realizes he is no longer able to recognize his own home?

    Summary

    A memory comes to him; in the dark as they lay in bed, a small whisper between their faces, a secret moment, Promise Chuuya won't ever use Corruption when I'm not there?

    What if you're not there and I have no choice? Chuuya asked.

     

     

    Chuuya has to wait for me. I don't care what's happening. Chuuya has to wait.

     

     

    Chuuya stares down at his screen, hidden again behind some debri. There is still no response. His hand tightens around it, tremulous. He had to have seen it by now. Dazai's phone is always in his pocket.

    Shit. Does he really not give a damn anymore?

    He remembers a small smile, eyes gentle and deep and dark. I'll always come for Chuuya.

    Liar.

     

    ______

     

    Dazai has been distant with Chuuya these days, seeming to have grown bored of him and has been spending more and more time with Oda Sakunosuke. This sudden rift has consequences, and Chuuya will be the one to bear it.
