    Summary

    In winter, the colors are so numb and faded that Dazai feels a little too empty to bear. The weather of winter reminds him of blood against snow and tears against cheeks.

    Spring is so fresh and new that Dazai feels that it’s a shame for something like him to exist for yet another beautiful new birth of life. Beyond that, the same overused, recycled colors in the air and on the trees makes him sick with envy and boredom. He’s bitter down to the bones.

    The searing heat of summer reminds Dazai of birthdays nearing ominously, wisteria trees sweeping down, and hands, hands, hands. Summer makes him sweat and itch under the bandages. Summer makes him ache with old pains. Summer makes him burn with agony as the heat beats down against his second skin of paper wrappings.

    Autumn is so much more. The colors are never bland or dull, they’re full of life like the first drag of a good cigarette, late nights at Bar Lupin, and people like Odasaku, Chuuya, and everyone at the Armed Detective Agency.

    This is basically a fic about Dazai’s perspective of the world and his depressing thoughts. It contains graphic depictions of depression so please be careful.

    Summary

    By now, days are entirely meaningless to him. He’s never bothered to count the cycles of night and day. Never bothered to admire the moon’s silver path cutting through the water. Never bothered to fret over the blisters the sun burns into his skin, or the sting of the ocean salt that sets them alight.

    Wherever the ocean takes him is wherever he roams. Whichever ship’s propellers churn him up into blood is left up to chance; whichever shark snaps up his organs in the aftermath is the one lucky enough to scavenge a meal for itself.

    This is simply how it is.

    Summary

    "You've been starved of kindness for so long that you don't know how to stomach it anymore, hungering for it so desperately and yet throwing up the moment it touches your lips."

    Or the one in which Dazai finds solace in an unexpected place. (Set between scenes of s2ep9, just after the agency-mafia meeting.)

    Summary

    Dazai has a sprained ankle and is, predictably, being difficult about it, just not for the reasons that Kunikida expected.

    ~~~~

    “Seriously, Kunikida-kun -” Dazai swings his legs again, like the brat he is - “I'm fine from here. You should go home, water your plants, or finish your paperwork, or whatever it is that you -”

    Kunikida abruptly drops him.

    Summary

    The night after the Armed Detective Agency returned from Standard Island, Dazai had never felt so lost in his body.

    When Yosano used her ability on him, she healed all of his wounds.

    His scars were gone.

     

    Or, the author is projecting onto Dazai far more than is healthy EL OH EL
