I Just Thought Of Something Yesterday.

I just thought of something yesterday.

Did Dazai know that Chuuya wasn’t a vampire from the very beginning (since he arrived)?

Because like I can think of two reasons why Dazai could deduce this.

1. It’s Chuuya I mean like the best martial artist in Japan if not the world, no way a vampire got him

2. Chuuya’s hat blocks out anything that tries to intercept his consciousness. The vampirism would fall under this, so Chuuya would be immune.

And since Dazai was the one who possessed Rimbaud’s notes, he was aware of Chuuya’s hat too.

So these two were winging the entirety of the Prison break, counting on each other not to kill each other.

I think Dazai knew that Fyodor wouldn’t be killed based off that one attempt, and by extension Chuuya. Maybe he was immediately trying to set up Chuuya fake-killing him, and Chuuya was able to figure this out and played along.

Those are just my thoughts, I don’t know if they are right 😂

Ok after going back and forth between the chapter where Chuuya was introduced into the prison arc to when Chuuya was revealed to not be a vampire, I came to two conclusions:

1. Dazai had to have known that Chuuya was coming. That also means that he knew that Chuuya wasn’t a vampire from the very beginning.

2. The only “plan” they really had was the part where Chuuya had to fake-kill Dazai. Everything else was them winging it and hoping they don’t kill each other in the process because they very much could have at multiple points.

Lots and lots of bullet points and questions to get to those two conclusions 😭

If We Were Villains and The Secret History are siblings. One is the pretentious, intellectual older sibling and the other is the earnest, romantic younger sibling. One makes tongue-in-cheek jokes at the expense of the other and one rolls their eyes at the drama of it all, but they share the same nose and have the same taste in red wine because they're in the same FAMILY.

UNDERSTOOD??????

People don't talk about how Richard's only fucking reason for involving himself in a murder witch was comited to cover up a different murder he had literally nothing to do with is because bunny was slightly mean to him

Like the one time someone actually clocks him for his constant lying he decides to go out of his way to help with and even suggested a method for his murder.

Anxiety was trapped in the depths of my heart, like a formation of black clouds I could not break free of. By living this way, what will my fortune be? There is nothing. Am I simply a sickly man? I was staggered by these thoughts. What should I do? I had no direction, nothing. I though that this reckless life of mine was only a nuisance to others and devoid of meaning. This is quite hard to bear. A talented guy like you probably doesn’t understand, but no thought in the world is worse than the realization that, ‘My life is a nuisance to others. I am useless.’
