Holy shit??????
reblog if you’ve read fanfictions that are more professional, better written than some actual novels. I’m trying to see something
Okay. Okay.
So the idea that abilities in bsd are trauma based is basically canon yeah? Maybe just high stress or something like that... but it seem pretty damn canon.
Like-
We have Kyouka who just flat out inherited her mother's ability.
We have Chuuya who (this is near speculation) at the age of 7 had an ability and a calamity god after being basically tortured.
We have Atsushi who's ability manifested while being tortured.
We see Yosano developing her ability through her trauma.
Akutagawa was a orphan who needed to protect himself and his sister and he got a guard dog of an ability. His ability continues the development, adapting to abuse.
Even Steinbeck went hungry with such a large but poor farming family, and he got an ability that grows plants, crops and the such.
Some may seem redundant, like Kunikida. But someone with high anxiety (which he definitely has) could feel large amounts of stress (especially when young) if they don't have the things they need...
And then just for myself. We know little about where Dazai came from. But let's think. His ability turns off other abilities. Maybe he suffered great harm at the hands of an ability user through their ability...
The pic is kinda wonky cuz my hands are shaky as shit
So as we know the whole 'being in the mafia' thing, was because dazai wanted to find a purpose in life. So, I was thinking, that dazai's suicide attempt, where mori found him first (I believe its a headcanon and not actual canon) and dazais first(?) reason to attempt at all was because he thought 'the whole purpose in life is to die, right?' or maybe something like 'if I have no purpose, then why not die?'. Like something along those lines, yk?
