Summary
After learning that Lucy grew up in Canada, Atsushi marveled at how she tolerated Japan's drastically warmer climate. She'd shrugged with some noncommittal reply when he got an idea.
"An outing!" he'd stuttered hastily when she questioned if it was a date.
It's just that he knew the perfect place to take her to. A sea-wall of sorts that wasn't a pier exactly, just what the name implied: a wall of concrete like a sidewalk almost, with the ocean down below on one side. Its path allowed them to walk along the beach without actually walking along the beach. They didn't have to worry about getting sand in their shoes, since neither of them owned flip flops.

Sure enough, he's hard....

Summary
He had a pounding migraine, the day off in the port mafia had left him with absolutely nothing to do: so he did what he does best, he drowned himself in alcohol and pills. It was peacefully mind numbing for a while, but the worst thing about distractions is they keep your problems at bay, but not out of sight.
It's like watching the reaper with his rotting sickle watch you, never out of sight, but temporarily out of reach. The most common advice in situations like these was to man up and face the situation - take the bull by its horns. That's just plain stupid.
It's the kind of thing Chuuya would do.
He'd always admired Chuuya for his sheer drive. There was a light behind Chuuyas eyes you don't often find in people, the fire of ambition, of passion. Dazai truly envied him. All he ever wanted in life was purpose. Ambition would help him, and it's not like he didn't have ambition, it's just that his ambition happened to be directed in trying to kill himself.

Summary
It was disgusting what proximity could do to a person, absolutely disgusting how if brought close enough together you'd see the curves of another's body, see the pores on their skin and the scars that did not hide too well under their sleeves.
It was disgusting, Fyodor to reminded himself.
"Would you have taken me?", Dazai asked with uncharacteristic candor. His honey-brown eyes expressed an emotion in a language that Fyodor was all too familiar with.
"Of course. I'm not a fool." His answer carried conviction he wasn't aware he could provide. Then again, all his answers changed when Dazai asked the questions.
Dazai didn't say anything. He was probably trying to see where the boundary between them lay, or if there was one at all.
or
Locked in Merusault, Dazai and Fyodor's conversations grow more intimate: the boy with the mind of steel gets roam in the lands of pretend godhood.

Summary
Chuuya stops the cylinder without looking and clicks it back into place. "You're going to count," he says.
Dazai blinks. "What?"
"Every shot." Chuuya's voice drops low. "It's the least you can do." He taps the cool metal of the muzzle twice to the underside of Dazai's chin, and tilts upwards. "Be good."
OR
Chuuya has one bullet left in his revolver. Dazai has a request. Chuuya, who has never made a good decision where Dazai is concerned, says yes.

Summary
Ranpo’s voice is low when mirrors Dazai’s rapidly fading grin, “My turn.”
He leans forward and whispers into Dazai’s ear, “You’re half-blind in your right eye, can shoot with both eyes closed and are an ex-executive of the Port Mafia. What a great variety of things to know about a colleague at first glance, don’t you think?”
And just like that, he’s gone. He throws a wave behind his shoulder and calls out, “I think we’ll get along just fine, Dazai-kun. After all, we have all the time in the world to pick each other apart.”

Summary
『Who is Natsuki Subaru to you?』
He thinks of himself as the guy who couldn't make it work the first time. The guy who tries again.
But that's not how they see him.
To Emilia, he's her knight. To Rem, her hero. To Beatrice, the one who chose her. To Otto, the disaster who ruined his business model and became his best friend. To Roswaal, the variable his book never accounted for. To Reinhard, the first person who treated him like a friend instead of a legend.

“Why wouldn't you just let me die?!” he rasps, struggling to maintain whatever crumbs of control he has over his own breathing that is actively trying to spiral into whatever it is Dazai can spiral further into.
“Because you don't deserve to,” spits out Nakahara, viscerally repressing the urge to drive his knee into Osamu’s solar plexus.or,
3 times Dazai laughs and one time Chuuya does it instead.

Summary
Algebra in general had only been a relatively recent invention. Sure, way back then, people were unfathomably smart. But anything more complex than arithmetic was reserved solely for specialists and intellectuals of the era.
So then, why wouldn't that be the case in Re:Zero?
Historically, "math" and "tedium" often gone hand in hand, given the lack of modern symbolic representation. In fact, negative numbers were only a thing in 200 BCE - roughly 2800 years after records of earliest civilization.
In unrelated news, Subaru asks Anastasia for a math lesson.

Who is Natsuki Subaru?
To some, he's Emilia's Knight. To others, he's an ex-noble, an infiltrator of the Witch Cult, a child soldier, a demi-human...
Wait, what?
Or: various people attempt to come to a conclusion about Natsuki Subaru's background. Surely a conversation will clear up any misconceptions.
Right?

Summary
“A day off?” Chuuya echoes, blinking slowly.
“Yes,” Mori repeats with a chuckle, but it sounds like an order this time. “A day off. Do with it as you please.” And right as Chuuya is opening his mouth to ask why, Mori perks up and says, “Ah, I instructed Dazai-kun to take the day off as well.” He smiles serenely. “So you two may spend it together, if you’d like.”
Chuuya’s eye twitches.
In between carnival games and ice cream stands, Chuuya learns a thing or two at seventeen about normalcy, cotton candy, and hand-holding.

Summary
— Я всё не знал, как начать... Ты украл мой сюжет. Это должна была быть моя история. Неудавшиеся разы и попытки жить дальше после всего случившегося, опущение рук и вжух, — Осаму пальцами обводит холодный мрамор, подушечками проходясь по неровностям, выгравированым инициалам. — Финал борьбы с итогом на курке. Федя, это я был должен оказаться на твоём месте. Почему же ты опустил руки, когда всегда твердил мне о борьбе?
AU! Дазай – патологоанатом, а Чуя инспектор-криминалист, крайне заинтригованный острым на язык, строптивым профессионалом.
