What Do You Think Gin, Tachihara, Chuuya And Higuchi's Reactions To Akutagawa Dating Atsushi Would Be?

迷い犬のホワイトデー

This tweet reminded me of this one panel from the manga

bsd villains are like “we gotta stop JRR Tolkien and Dr. Seuss before they blow up the entire city with remote activated petrol bombs they’ve rigged onto children in the sewers and we need to decipher the code from the Rosetta Stone hidden in the mafia control room.”

Tell me you're in love with him without telling me you're in love with him

I never miss a beat / I'm lightning on my feet

post-corruption

I finally watched Over the Garden Wall

I freaking love it oml I should've gotten into it sooner, it's so mysterious and spooky and it's amazing. Wirt is so awkward and cynical I love him

(yes I want to make Bsd x otgw art)

wait, wait, wait; bsd fandom. hear me out.

a skk ratatouille au where dazai is linguini and chuuya is colette.

(i’m not sure who’d remy would be in this situation? perhaps atsushi?)

Can we talk about how *safe* Atsushi and Akutagawa feel with each other

How much they're connected to each other is actually insane

They have innate trust with each other (Akutagawa even gave his coat to Atsushi), and they're comfortable with each other, it's wonderful

I think the best depiction of canon "domestic sskk" per se, is in beast

The direct passage from the beast light novel is:

"They continued to shoot the breeze for the next few minutes or so. Both boys shared small yet profound experiences that their colleagues would never be able to understand or even empathize with. The two of them could just be kids, something they seldom did around others.

'This is the first time I've ever been able to talk to someone like this,' the white-haired boy said with a chuckle."

They can relate to each other so strongly, they're opposites yet they feel intertwined. God they have such a well written and like at this point really romantic relationship

I really like how beast can show us a new perspective on sskk (among other things in the Bsd universe), comparing their first meeting in the main series to their first meeting in beast is kinda crazy. When Akutagawa nor Atsushi has the prior information of who they work for, they can get along. In a world with no abilities, no Mafia, no detective agency, they would know each other so well

Also, I'm sure Akutagawa has smiled more than twice in the series, but both most memorable times he's smiled they were both directed at Atsushi (one smile was the one he gave Atsushi while he told him to run before dying, second smile was in beast, shown in the picture above)

It's like Atsushi brings out the best of him, and vice versa. They're just so *perfect* for each other 😭

I will always love their parallels and similarities, their relationship balance is a perfect representation of the yin and yang

Atsushi knows he can't bear to live without Akutagawa. Akutagawa knows that Atsushi is the only person he's ever met who really, truly understands him. And no matter how much they're in denial about how they're a lot more than just "rivals", they still scream each other's names when one of them gets hurt, because they both *care*

Akutagawa is definitely going to go feral in the next chapter or so oml
