no these are not in any order :) enjoy
alongside his whole cleanse-the-world-of-sin thing, fyodor’s secondary life goal is to learn as many string instruments as he can, own at least one of each, and dedicate an entire room to them. the only other one that knows is sigma, and they’re… honestly not even surprised
kunikida can speak spanish well enough to have an everyday conversation with someone, but he’s not totally fluent (i also like to think he’s very fascinated by the different dialects and knows a ton of variations of certain phrases)
because of this, dazai has committed exactly 5 spanish words to memory: cabrón, pelagatos, pendejo, pagafantas, and gilipollas. all insults. he uses them on chuuya sometimes thinking he doesnt understand (alas, he’s close to fluent and often returns these tiny insults with entire vulgar speeches in spanish)
while we’re on the topic of languages, sigma is completely fluent in both japanese and russian. fyodor and gogol (both non-native japanese speakers) are pretty good with the speech and pronunciation part, but they have a hard time reading and writing kanji, so they’ll often go and use sigma as a walking google translate
kyouka likes rock music! atsushi found her with headphones on once, asked if he could hear, and immediately got blasted to the other side of the room by mcr
atsushi, however, likes actual rocks. he has a little collection on the windowsill by his desk in the agency <33
the black lizard have game nights together once a month. higuchi caught them all heading to hirotsu’s place together and asked what they were doing, and when they told her, she immediately asked to join. a few months after she started tagging along, akutagawa was soon dragged into it as well. this is how they found out akutagawa is a huge rage-quitter (hirotsu has had to buy three new game tables since)
louisa and poe occasionally go out for coffee together. not on dates or anything, just to sit in each other’s quiet company and get work done together alongside delicious beverages. one time while the guild was still assembled, lucy asked louisa if she wanted a certain kind of coffee (she was practicing so she could eventually land her current job), and poe answered with her exact order before she did
during the dark era, dazai jokingly made a set of those neon loom friendship bracelets for oda, ango, and himself. today, ango still has his and oda’s, which he managed to save. it’s one of, if not the only remaining physical object that could ever prove oda’s existence.
anyway, back to the happy stuff- gogol and sigma are huge reptile nerds, especially lizards! gogol caught one once, and they spent hours playing around with it. fyodor passive-aggressively stared at them from across the room while reading a book on rats the whole time.
despite this, sigma can’t stand snakes. anything else scaley is cool, just not snakes- they do find most spiders adorable, though. gogol, on the other hand, is the complete opposite; he loves snakes and will burn the entire sky casino down if a single spider comes within a 2 mile range of it.
50% of mori’s obsession with elise comes from… y’all know what… but the other 50% is from his love for fashion and need for a model. apparently, he decided elise was the perfect candidate, and spoils her rotten trying to find her an outfit that not only he believes is stylish, but she finds agreeable as well (so far, he’s had no success)
one of steinbeck’s sisters is a professional hairdresser, so he knows a lot about hair care. as soon as he saw the state of lovecraft’s hair, he decided he absolutely would not have this and proceeded to spend the next three hours thoroughly detangling and cleansing it. other than steinbeck himself, louisa was the only one who got to touch it before lovecraft immediately jumped into the ocean again (she said it was perhaps the softest thing she’d ever felt with her own two hands. poe is secretly dying to feel it too someday)
ranpo often takes kenji, atsushi, and occasionally tanizaki out with him on snack shopping sprees! they all usually get addressed as “young boys”, despite only one of the three actually being a child- unless tanizaki comes along, in which case he is usually assumed to be the oldest in charge of the group.
ok that’s all my stupid tiny hands can type for now. please rb with some of your own hcs if you like, i lovelovelove seeing other people’s ideas on these stupid little guys
[Lovechild AU]
Finally complete
ik this isn't canon at all but I do think it would be a beautiful thing if Byakko turned out to be a weretiger cub. What if Byakko is just the child inside Atsushi. The child who is used to pain and violence and lashes out. The child who wants to protect Atsushi by healing him, killing chickens so he doesn't starve, hurting people who hurt him. What if Atsushi's reconciliation with Byakko is him accepting the childhood he had and the child that is still inside him and screaming to be loved. What if we get to watch Byakko become less violent, and turn into what a real child or cub should be like- wanting to play, wanting affection. What if through Byakko, we get to see Atsushi's inner child healing a little.
Shenanigans and tomfoolery
Ely Ely Ely for the requests maybe Beast! Atsushi in a cat café? I feel like he would like those
He loves them :3 (everyday I wake up and thank god for the stroke of wisdom that hit you when you suggested raccoon stripes beast sushi)
"Or maybe it was because he’d pushed President Fukuzawa’s ‘cat dad’ mug off the table in the break room. He had said it was okay, but perhaps he’d been lying and was now going to punish him. Or maybe it was because he’d taken a nap with Ranpo a while back, under the best ray of sunlight the building had to offer, but when Ranpo kept on shifting around, he’d let an irritated Byakko take over and trap Ranpo underneath herself."
pushing my catsushi agenda and ranpo cant sit still agenda
me looking at my cat do something funny or cute: i can make an atsushi post out of this
HC that even under Fukuzawa's ability Atsushi gets moody as it gets closer to the full moon. He gets more easily irritated and tiger features like his fangs and ears pop out more often than usual. Even though the president can suppress the full transformation Byakko WILL want to do kitty things on the full moon and make it everyone else's problem that she can't
Atsushi who acts cat like but only when he feels safe.
He curls up and fall asleep during an agency movie night with his head on Kyoka's shoulder.
But only after Kyoka noticed how tired he was and shrugged, patting her shoulder.
Atsushi tries to subtly chase mice until Fukuzawa just let's him go nuts, just try not to make a mess.
Atsushi only sits up on his desk at work if given the okay from Kunikida.
Once becoming friends with Akutagawa, Atsushi once chased after Rashoumoun and Akutagawa just rolled his eyes fondly at his apology and said it was fine.
Atsushi may not have known it but the Orphanage probably punished him for ever acting "like that wretched tiger."
To the point Atsushi subconsciously can't act catlike unless he feels safe.
Because he's afraid he'll get punished for it, even if he doesn't remember why he's so afraid.
Atushi please answer me if you had catnip would you get high I need to know this is very important information
First off, I'm a tiger, not a housecat, and I'm not sure if catnip works on tigers.
Second of, I have no idea because I've never eaten catnip or any sort of drugs, although one time dazai gave me a coffee so good that I'm pretty sure that's what drugs feel like, haha.
I remember i was asking kunikida why he liked coffee so much because honestly it's so bitter and dazai said he had some really good coffee that could definitely change my mind.
The next day he brought me some homemade coffee at work and it was really minty and i did NOT know coffee could be that good. i felt really hyper and i did even more work than kunikida that afternoon! He acted kinda weird about it though. He's not the competitive type at all so usually he's happy when i do a good job at work. Instead he was too busy because he took dazai to another room and kept shouting at him i couldn't tell you what it was about because at that point i was feeling kinda dizzy. Kunikida came back dragging dazai by the collar a little while later and I think i also saw yosano give dazai some cash when kunikida had let go of him. She looked pissed about it. Kunikida let me go home early when i told him i felt dizzy.
Even if though i did feel pretty light headed after, I still really wanna try that type of coffee again. but dazai said it was made from some super expensive foreign ingredient, at first i didn't really believe him and tried to search online for it, but i couldn't find anything about it and something that tastes that good and gives you that much energy must be hard to find so he's probably telling the truth!
