Fanfic idea- Blind Yokai au!

Prompt: Atsushi is a human who “see’s” in a very unique way, which attracts the worst weirdo’s.

Note: This idea is a mix of my previous yokai au but heavily inspired by @Octagava ’s Foxglove au.

Also discussed with @Venelona! =w=

Actual idea:

So inspired by @octagava’s idea of a blind Atsushi I decided to put my own little twist on it.

Starting with Atsushi.

He is blind just like in the foxglove au and is able to “see” yokai but not in the way you think.

He was born knowing nothing but darkness and learning about the world through harsh voices and violent hands. It doesn’t help that the people from his village always ostracized him either for being “useless”.

So yea Atsushi just always believed that he was completely blind.

But then he meets a yokai for the first time and wow okay so not “completely” blind.

To be specific Atsushi can only see a yokai’s aura, the energy in a yokai.

For Atsushi he see’s the shape of the Yokai’s body just in one bright color which changes shade and intensity depending on the Yokai’s mood.

Essentially Atsushi is a living Yokai detector with the added bonus of being able to read their emotions/moods if he spends enough time with them.

But Atsushi doesn’t really care about that, the first time he see’s a yokai is the first time actually “seeing” something in the world, the first time he has an idea of color, the first time he can actually see the shape of a person.

It’s amazing, stunning, and he absolutely cannot look away from the yokai in front of him.

————————————————————

Anyways this is where it mixes up with my original yokai au in that yokai typically demand tributes of some kind. So Atsushi will be the blind sacrifice since ya know the villagers are horrible and think that by giving a “defective human” they can get away with basically no payment at all (cause ya know people are terrible).

I have three routes where this can go for DazAtsu, ChuuAtsu, and Dazatsuya.

———————————————————

DazAtsu route

So huge thing in this au is that Dazai (a nine tailed fox (kitsune) is a huge asshole in the beginning.

Like port mafia 15 year old level shit head.

The man is bitter since he can’t really kill himself (curse his stupidly strong yokai body) so he’s exploring other ways to spend his long life.

He finds himself usually bored with humans and yokai so he tries to entertain himself by either annoying the crap out of them or being outright cruel with torurting/killing them.

So when a village decides to sacrifice an apparently a very pretty but blind human he decides to join in on the cruelty.

He helps to let the human escape only to hunt the blind human through a forest, because he finds the human’s struggles for life amusing.

But when he’s finally got the blind human cornered he’s curious, Atsushi’s eyes have been firmly shut. Dazai being the sadistic bastard he is wants to see their color and the way the light leaves them as he goes in for the kill (cause ya know he’s envious at not being able to die).

So he forces Atsushi to open his eyes, and oh, oh this is curious, Violet and gold?

Gorgeous.

It almost seems like the human actually see him.

Oh he is.

He’s starting at Dazai like he’s the only thing in the world (Which is true Atsushi is currently experiencing a blind man’s euphoria of seeing something for the first time).

And it’s interesting! This little human is so adorable like this!

The way Atsushi can’t stop looking at him as if he’s the only light in the darkness. He’s so curious, how come the human see’s only him?

And the way he see’s Dazai is interesting, the human can apparently see his body but the way he describes him is unique.

(Atsushi perceives Dazai as the color blue which fluctuates from dark to light. So the closest thing that Atsushi would compare it to would be water going from icy, cold, luke warm, and boiling.)

It intrigues Dazai to the point of wanting to keep this adorable little human. Both because it breaks the tedium of his life and because when Atsushi actually starts to relax he’s hilariously sassy! He talks back, has interesting conversations, and never fails to give him an interesting perspective on how he see’s the world.

Fascinating.

I can imagine Dazai at first bringing Atsushi to see other yokai. Cause ya know he wants to test if Atsushi can see other yokai and learn what he see’s.

It’s here where Dazai learns that Atsushi can literally see a yokai’s emotions, and their forms regardless of any sort of magic that can be used to hide them which of course makes his little human that much more valuable.

It’s a fun and kinda neat thing to brag about to the other yokai, that is until he realizes that Atsushi loves experiencing “new colors” and looks absolutely adorable to other yokai as well.

Then he becomes a clingy possessive little guy that does not want to share his human.

But its too late at this point now Atsushi wants to see as many other yokai as well and Dazai can’t really deny him anything anymore.

Dazai the cruel Kitsune is smitten with his little human. =w=

————————————————————

ChuuAtsu- route

Now Chuuya doesn’t exactly have the best reputation. He’s known for being an incredibly violent yokai that would feed both humans and yokai if they offended him.

(This was a misconception though, yes he would eat other yokai and humans but only if they challenged him to a battle first. As far as Chuuya is concerned you play stupid games you win stupid prizes, and he’s not gonna waste food if he can help it.)

So to try and avoid a possible rampage from the Oni the villagers decided to be proactive and send him a tribute/sacrifice.

AKA: The useless blind human that every one hates, because ya know fuck anyone that doesn’t fit the status quo.

They capture Atsushi, tie him up, and make him look as pretty/appealing as possible before dumping his ass on Chuuya’s doorstep with the village chief yelling praises and giving a struggling Atsushi away.

Now of course Chuuya is feeling a lot of things. On one hand he’s happy that he’s getting a tribute, because of course he’s a powerful yokai who protects a lot of valuable territory.

But on the other hand who the hell are these humans and why the fuck are they giving him a clearly hurt and weak human that was very obviously kidnapped.

So of course this annoys the crap outta him so he scares off the village chieftain and goes over to see the wiggling human in the pagoda.

What he see’s inside does make him curious. Granted the human is incredibly pretty with their pale skin and silver/black hair, but otherwise he isn’t much to look at. The guy has clearly been beaten and is much too skinny to be healthy.

They talk for a bit because Chuuya is curious, the human “Atsushi” didn’t open his eyes once.

Honestly Chuuya would’ve been offended if Atsushi did not explain that he could not see anything and that keeping his eyes closed made it easier for him to hear and make his way around.

(Again this pissed Chuuya off cause what the hell is he supposed to do with a blind human? He’s honestly so tempted to just dust the village chief for being a dumbass and trying to pull one over on him).

Chuuya is ready to just release the human and drop him off near a different village.

(He’s rather amused by how snarky the human is in his responses and how “excited” he is to go back to other humans. The pretty human has some bite and he can respect that.)

That is until Chuuya demands to see Atsushi’s eyes (because of course he wants to see the pretty human’s eyes before he releases him back into the wild, he’s bored and blind eyes might be interesting to see).

But then Atsushi opens his eyes and both of them are surprised.

Because Chuuya is enamored by large Twighlight eyes that look at him like he’s a bright moon in a dark starless night.

And Atsushi is just as confused but more amazed at the bright red creature in front of him, the color reminding Atsushi of a warm campfire during a cold winter.

Atsushi explains that he doesn’t know what the hell is happening but he doesn’t want it to stop, while Chuuya starts to get curious.

Perhaps the human chief wasn’t such an idiot after all?

This leads to Chuuya taking Atsushi to different Yokai to test it out and where he learns that his little human can only see yokai. This has a lot of benefits since this makes Atsushi rather immune to yokai trickery, and with enough time can allow him to learn how to read the emotions of yokai around him.

So not only did Chuuya gain an incredibly entertaining/beautiful human but also a living yokai detector that can help him with literally see through Dazai's bullshit.

Chuuya spoils Atsushi a lot after this cause his human acts a lot like an abandoned puppy, just a sweet little thing that loves to be around him.

( For reference when Atsushi see’s Chuuya he see’s red would describe/compare him to heat. Like a fire something very active and would give Atsushi warm feelings. But his color would deepen/lighten depending on the intensity or "warmth". Like if its lighter then it'll feel like the sun's rays (happy) or if its darker then its more uncomfortable like putting his hand too close to a fire (rage).)

I can just imagine Chuuya literally carrying a blind Atsushi on his back while going into Dazai’s territory.

Chuuya: Okay Atsushi I want you to keep your eyes out, the bastard can be quick and ruthless so he’ll probably try to take me by surprise.

Atsushi: Is he the big soft looking thing 20ft east of us? He looks like he’s carrying something…..maybe a bucket?

Chuuya: ………..I’m gonna make you so much Chazuke later!

He smirks as he is able to catch Dazai by surprise for once.

Chuuya: Best human ever!

——————————————————————————

And finally we have Dazatsusya route which is a mix between the two!

It starts off with the Chuuya route, in that he meets Atsushi first and basically decides to keep him.

So he tries his best to take care of his new pet/friend/crush by making sure he regains his strength and heals.

(Honestly Chuuya is kinda charmed by how sweet and independent Atsushi tries to be, it reminds him of an abandoned puppy that just wants to be praised. This in turn makes Chuuya want to spoil him.)

Now here is the thing, Chuuya has a bit of a history with “pets”.

Namely that history is that Chuuya takes in a hurt animal and gets attached but then an annoying fox asshole usually comes in and kills his “pet” for fun.

Honestly Dazai just kills the pet and then makes fun of Chuuya for adopting thing that’ll die in the blink of an eye anyways.

Chuuya has tried for centuries to get the asshole back for it but the fox is as tricky as he is annoying.

Anyways everything changes when he gets Atsushi so Chuuya pulls all the stops so he can protect his previous and delicate blind human from that asshole of a fox.

He becomes so cautious that he moves to a different cave just to make sure Atsushi is safe and for a while it seems to work!

Chuuya is just ecstatic and enjoys pampering his touch starved, sassy, and delicate little human.

He enjoys Atsushi’s personality and finds it endearing that he tries to be useful to the oni even though he insists that he doesn’t need too.

Meanwhile Atsushi enjoys Chuuya’s companionship, he loves being able to see Chuuya’s moods shift and how he tries to help Atsushi foster his own independence while in their little cave home.

Their relationship grows and at some point they start to really love each other.

Anyways Chuuya decides to go out one day and plans to be gone just for an hour or two to get Atsushi some new soft pelts and flowers so he can be more comfortable (cause ya know blind person, he loves dressing up Atsushi in nice clothing but his human prefers to smell flowers and touch soft fluffy textures even though he tries to hide it).

But then Chuuya comes back home not only to find his home ransacked and without Atsushi but that it also smells like that stupid fox!

So yea Chuuya just grabs his spiked club and begins to hunt for Atsushi and is completely ready to finally kill that damn fox if he did anything to hurt his human!

Meanwhile with Atsushi and Dazai:

Dazai and Atsushi’s experience is basically the same as the Dazatsuya except Dazai is just invested as soon as he see’s Atsushi look at him awe while in Chuuya’s cave.

He becomes curious of the little blind human and adores how he can’t seem to look away from him.

So he steals him from Chuuya and decides to try the whole “owning a pet” thing that he constantly makes fun of Chuuya for.

Of course Atsushi is understandably stressed out and keeps trying to get away from Dazai at first.

Because for the first few days Dazai still acts like a sadistic ass and says cruel things to him.

But then he starts figuring out Dazai’s emotions and realizes that he actually acts differently from the way he feels. At some point Atsushi just views Dazai as a needy attention starved cat and Dazai likes basking in the human’s deadpan stare and head pats.

And Dazai is delighted! It’s so entertaining to be able to talk to someone who cannot only see through his lies and bullshit but also has the guts to call him out on it.

Plus his dear little blind human just knows the best places to scratch his ears, brush his fur, and oh goodness the adorable way he tries to escape but then pouts in defeat within his tails when he fails is just precious!

It takes Chuuya at minimum a week before he finds Atsushi and Dazai.

I imaging Chuuya just busting through a door in a shabby little hut to see Dazai cuddling around a sleepy Atsushi who then smirks at

Chuuya.

Dazai: "I gotta give it to you Slug, maybe the whole pet thing is not as stupid as you made it look. This one would be such a waste on you though~"

Chuuya growls and points his spiked club at the kitsune.

Chuuya: “Oh shove it you overgrown wash towel! Now give me back Atsushi before I make fox tail soup outta ya!”

Atsushi who perks up at Chuuya’s voice smiles and tries to get out of his lap only to be stopped by fluffy tails.

Atsushi: Dazai-San let me go.

Atsushi tries to wiggle out of Dazai’s lap, which makes the fox pout and hold him tighter.

Dazai: Nope! You’re my human now, the slug can get a new one.

Atsushi: Dazai-San I keep telling you, you can’t just kidnap a person and expect them to be okay with it. I want to go home.

Dazai: And I told you that’s dumb and that the slug doesn’t deserve you.

Atsushi: And I keep telling you it’s not about “deserving” anything. I have my own free will!”

Atsushi continues to try and move but that just makes Dazai growl into his neck which puts Chuuya on edge cause the fox’s teeth are too close to the human’s delicate neck.

Chuuya: Dazai!

Atsushi just rolls his eyes though

Atsushi: Fine you leave me no choice. Atsushi then pinches one of Dazai’s fluffy ears which makes the fox recoil and complain when Atsushi finally gets out of his lap.

Dazai: Atsushi that’s not fair!~

Atsushi just smiles innocently and pets the fox’s head.

Atsushi: You keep telling me that all is fair in love and war~ Anyways you are welcome to come visit me whenever you feel like it but please be more gentle about it next time.

Atsushi smiles then turns and walks to Chuuya.

Atsushi: Shall we go home?

Chuuya smirks Chuuya: Sounds good though I would prefer you don’t invite that mangy kidnapping fox.

Dazai pouts but walks behind them.

Dazai: And I would prefer if my human would stop being unreasonable and stayed with me instead of a pipsqueak of an oni, but we can’t always get what we want.

Chuuya growls before glaring at the fox: Oh fuck off you flea bitten mongrel! If you claim Atsushi as your human one more time I’ll shove my club so far up your ass I’ll make a kitsune kabob!

Dazai just snorts before smirking: So crass~ ***MY HUMAN*** deserves better then such a fowl tempered midget of an oni~ Maybe if I’ll be able to convince him if I took him for a longer time, maybe in the mountains?

Chuuya growls and actually swings at a smirking Dazai who dodges.

Chuuya: Don’t you fucking dare! Atsushi’s mine you deranged fox!

Meanwhile Atsushi just huffs annoyed waiting for the two to stop because my goodness he just wants to get home.

Basically Chuuya and Dazai keep bickering but Atsushi acts as the tiebreaker/peacekeeper who is constantly tired (and sometimes) amused by their shit.

But in the end Atsushi loves his oni and fox even when he want’s to smack them upside the head for their childishness.

#author appreciation

#Thank you all the awesome fanfic writers!

Honestly, ever since becoming a fanfic writer myself I’ve become like 500% more understanding and patient about other authors’ update schedules. An author takes 6+ months to post their next chapter? Yeah, totally get that real life can get in the way. An author abandons a fic? Disappointing, but it happens- sometimes inspiration for a story just dies. An author apologizes about taking so long to post a 10k word chapter? Dude, that’s like 18-20 pages on Word single-spaced. It takes me at least a week to write an essay for school a quarter the length of that, and that’s with a deadline.

It’s probably the most important thing writing fanfic has taught me, tbh. How to fully appreciate the hard work someone else has put into their story. How important the role of the audience is to an author. And that no matter what, you are never entitled to demand more of a story that you are getting for free.

Fanfic idea- Drunken one night stand

Prompt: Both Chuuya and Atsushi have a very good night~

Notes: So not gunna lie I have been craving a more saucy ChuuAtsu story lately and his idea kinda popped up in my head a few months ago so I decided to actually write out my thoughts as a break before I continued writing for ChuuAtsu day.

Hope y’all like it and don’t judge me too harshly on the bad grammar lol

Actual idea-

(For context I like to imagine that Chuuya and Atsushi have never formally met or have seen each other’s pictures, so yea they have no idea who the other is or their job)

So the actual idea is very simple, I imagine that the point maybe during a birthday party or other special occasion Atsushi gets drunk for once. Of course everyone is having a good time and making sure things are fine but at some point while Dazai, Yosano, and Kunikida are having a drinking contest they kinda lose track of Atsushi.

Though when they start to freak out Rampo assures them that Atsushi is fine they just go back to enjoying the party.

Coincidentally Chuuya is getting drunk at the place and meets up with drunken Atsushi.

They actually hit it off really well while drunk. Atsushi thinks that Chuuya is unfairly pretty and wants to get to know him more and Chuuya finds Atsushi to be all around adorable with his wide pretty twilight eyes and warm smile.

They eventually head back to Chuuya’s place and l won’t go into detail but Chuuya definitely makes that tiger purr~

———————————————

I imagine that Atsushi is the first to wake up and is suffering a bit from a hangover but is overall feeling an odd feeling of happiness and embarrassment at waking up in this strangers bed after doing things~

So like the adorable but kind man he is he goes through the trouble of making sure to get Chuuya some water and medicine to put at his bed side and starts making breakfast for the man.

Of course he only has a bit of time before going back to work so he writes a small note and leaves it next to the medicine for Chuuya.

He basically says a thank you for the wonderful time they had and apologizes in that self conscious way you imagine Atsushi to do since he’s not a very “experienced” partner. He leaves his phone number hopes with a little “hope you you don’t have a bad hangover” side note.

Then he leaves the apartment to go to his and Kyouka’s shared apartment so he can get showered, changed, and off back to the ADA.

—————————————

Meanwhile a few hours later Chuuya wakes up with a killer headache and some very fuzzy but fun memories of being with a very beautiful man.

Of course he looks over in his bed and as expected the guy left as is one night stand behavior.

Though what he doesn’t expect is the thoughtful little note with medicine, or the nice little breakfast waiting for him at the table.

Honestly this combined with the slowly growing memories of his one-night stand make’s Chuuya really want this to be more then a one time thing~

So he sends a few texts and Atsushi texts back~

—————————————————

This goes on for at least a couple weeks with some very nice nights until one day there is a fight that’s supposed to go down with the Port mafia and the ADA are trying to contain things before it gets too violate.

Which ends up with Chuuya and Atsushi actually meeting up with each other while working. And suffice to say both of them are shocked and didn’t expect this to happen.

Atsushi grows worried that he’s broken some sort of rule and doesn’t want to get either the ADA or Chuuya in trouble so he tries his best to avoid Chuuya while trying to act normal (even though he’s a blushing stuttering mess when asked).

Meanwhile Chuuya is pissed at first of the thought of Atsushi taking advantage of him before he realizes that the guy had no idea about his identity and doing his best to do some sort of damage control for the both of them.

Which is cute.

So of course Chuuya being Chuuya, instead of hiding or avoiding Atsushi just decides to flirt with Atsushi the entire time.

Because this is a new but very adorable side to his lover that he wants to keep exploring, and he’s not afraid of the possible consequences.

He's already decided that he wants this adorable tiger and he’s prepared fight to keep him~

Fanfic idea- Yokai Au kitsune DazAtsu

Note: This was inspired by @venelona 's recent Kitsune Dazai craze which I love dearly. Seriously so many people have been drawing cute DazAtsu art with Kitsune Dazai! It's hard to not be inspired by so much beautiful ship art! XD

Anyways back to my ramblings lol

--------------------------

Prompt: Dazai loves his human

Actual idea-

(So for context this idea is placed in Edo Japan where humans hate Yokai and have a huge prejudice against anyone who they believe could be related to a yokai.)

Dazai is a 900 year old nine tailed Kitsune who is quite frankly bored with life, so of course he decides that he wants to end his life.

He tries to suppress is power to the point he’s almost completely identical with a regular one tailed fox and jumps into a lake to drown.

It was the perfect plan and his death would have been in a rather picturesque spot as well.

Well it would’ve been, except some young dumb human decided to interfere!

When he awakened from consciousness covered in bandages near a warm fireplace beside him he found a relatively young human male, with choppy silver hair and eyes that reminded him of a sunset.

He was pale scrawny thing, bruised, and tired looking to boot.

Honestly he was a rather pretty for a human, perhaps he had some demon heritage given his unique coloring?

It piqued his interest slightly, and as he learned more about the human his interest grew.

He learned that Atsushi was a lone human who was recently banished from his former village. Apparently the human’s didn’t like the idea of someone with yokai heritage living among them so instead of outright murdering the guy they isolate him in some abandoned little hut in the middle of the mountains.

But apart from his coloring and ability to heal himself Atsushi was as human as could be.

A lonely little human at that.

Fun to tease and prank though.

Even before he learned that Dazai could talk he was always talking to him, petting his soft fur, and treating him so gently.

Honestly it was rather nice to be pampered by such a pretty human.

Even when he played pranks on him or teased him Atsushi never truly got angry, he would sigh and complain but would always welcome Dazai with open arms.

Perhaps it was the warm look in his eyes, the way the Atsushi would listen to his complaints with a soft understanding smile, or the absolute delight he would express whenever Dazai would bring him back a large chicken or rabbit but Dazai couldn’t help but grow attached.

At some point he found himself beginning to love his little hidden treasure.

——————————————

Honestly I love the idea Atsushi just believing for the first few months that Dazai is just some mischievous fox that he saved from drowning in a river.

Sure that little fox woke up hissing at him and trying to destroy literally everything Atsushi owned in his small ramshackle hut but over time his little friend warmed up to him.

It helped his lonely existence to be able to talk to the little creature and the fox seemed to enjoy his company as well because at some point during the day the fox would just stay on his shoulders all nice and cozy around Atsushi’s neck while listening to him and chirping in his own two cents in there.

It was peaceful and made Atsushi feel like he was not alone anymore.

---------------------------------------

Meanwhile at night while Atsushi is sleeping he gets territorial over his new little mountain home and sweet human.

AKA: Dazai is kinda yandere feral when humans and Yokai wander too close to his and Atsushi’s hut.

I’d like to think that some sort of rumor starts spreading around about how a powerful and cruel Yokai protects the mountain because it holds some sort of treasure or something.

But really its just Dazai acting like an overly possessive attention starved cat who will hiss and scratch at anyone who gets close to his favorite person one moment and the next will yowl and break every glass cup in the house until he gets the attention he believes is owed to him from said favorite person.

—————————

At some point Dazai decides to leave for a day or two to get some gifts for Atsushi but comes back to find their humble home getting ransacked and poor Atsushi being hurt (cause ya know what’s an edo anime without mountain bandits lol).

And Dazai, Dazai goes a bit feral and exposes Atsushi to his true nine tailed form.

I imagine Dazai cradling Atsushi to himself while his tails swish aggressively as he growls at the perceived threat.

Cause how fucking dare those humans think they can steal from him! How dare they think they can hurt his human!

Meanwhile Atsushi feels a mixture of confusion, fear, indignation, and a small amount of relief.

Confusion because apparently his pet fox is actually an incredibly powerful yokai who could’ve killed him at any point of time.

Fear because his pet fox yokai looks incredibly pissed and is staring at the robbers like he's about to tear them apart.

Indignation because he knew that fox was too smart to just be a fox! He was going crazy for months talking to what he believed to be a pet when instead he could have had full on conversations with incredibly hot fox man! When this was all over he was going to give Dazai an earful!

And finally relief cause for as terrifying as Dazai looks right now, he’s holding him so gently~

Fanfic idea- Supernatural Atsushi AU part 3

Note: I just want to thank @Venelona for being an awesome friend that had been entertaining my long winded ramblings and hyper fixations about their post lol.

Venny you are awesome and your art rocks!

Anyways technically this idea could stand alone as its own thing but for context on this Drabble please click here for part 1: https://www.tumblr.com/lightreader1/779777145352454144/fanfic-idea-supernatural-atsushi-au-part-1-note?source=share

Aaand here is part 2: https://www.tumblr.com/lightreader1/779910843506769920/fanfic-idea-supernatural-atsushi-au-part-2-note?source=share

Anyways again I hope y’all enjoy reading and leave a comment if you are so inclined! : D

Little extra note but I love comments and 99% of the time I will reply to them. =w=

Also warning this is probably the longest ramble I have done yet.

————————————————————————————————————

Prompt: Atsushi is a tiger yokai that had been sealed into a tree and now is in a kind of weird love triangle with two of the port mafia’s most dangerous executives.

Actual idea-

I fell like a quick recap is in order but Atsushi is a tiger yokai who fell in love with an Oni, they lived a rather happy and peaceful life until some cowardly yokai decided to get rid of Atsushi so he wouldn’t have Arahbahki get revenge for their cruelty to the tiger.

This plan back fires big time so that while Atsushi was sealed into a tree in a near death state his lover went mad with rage and basically obliterated the yokai population before dying himself.

This gave humans the chance to become the ruling species and due to the influx of magic thanks to all the dead yokai, some humans started to gain abilities.

————————————————————————

Later on Atsushi was accidentally unsealed from the tree by port mafia executive “demon prodigy” Osamu Dazai.

Feeling a mixture of joy and gratitude to the human who unsealed him from his hell Atsushi wants to repay Dazai by offering both himself and his abilities for the human to use however he wishes.

Granted the only thing is that Atsushi refuses to do is kill Dazai or let him die, which is very annoying for Dazai since his hobby is suicide.

(Extra note but as an effect of being sealed for so long Atsushi’s lack of magic essentially makes him a ghost unless he puts in effort to keep his body stable. Doing things like healing, transforming, and regeneration takes energy that he regains via sleeping. Though the exceptions to the ghost thing are specific ability users like Dazai and Chuuya.)

Dazai keeps getting annoyed at Atsushi and Atsushi starts to learn how much of how his savior isn’t really a good man.

It all comes to a point where Dazai complains about another failed attempt thanks to Atsushi, Atsushi kinda loses it for a second.

When they return home to the shipping container and Atsushi pins Dazai down to the bed.

His usually vibrant gold and violet eyes look cold and lifeless as the tiger leans down close enough to Dazai’s face that he can feel his warm breath against his lips.

Atsushi: “Do you really want to die so badly, Dazai-san? I grant you death, make it quick and painless just as you desire.”

Dazai smirks and tries to move his arms but Atsushi’s grip is iron.

Dazai: “Ohh~ Not gunna lie that sounds very tempting Atsushi-kun~”

I can imagine Atsushi’s lips trembling slightly as he leans down and puts a clawed hand agains Dazai’s neck, letting his nails scrape against his skin drawing the a few drops of blood.

And Dazai shivers at the feeling when Atsushi leans to whisper into his ear.

Atsushi: “I understand that need, that desire to let everything fall away so you can feel peace. I wished for it too while I was sealed away. But I have a condition.”

I can imagine Atsushi leaning down to lick away the blood, healing the wound in the process and Dazai swallows looking down at his little tiger.

Dazai: “And what’s that condition kitten?”

Dazai’s whispers and shivers at the responding kiss to his neck before Atsushi moves up to place another kiss on Dazai’s cheek. The tiger now has his entire weight on Dazai, but curls up so his head is right above the human’s heart, listening to his fast thump thump thump.

Atsushi: “All I want is more time. For so long I was alone, trapped in my own mind with nothing but darkness. It was horrible, a hell that I thought I would never be able to escape. But you saved me.”

I can imagine Atsushi looking up at Dazai with tired eyes and a sad smile, and Dazai he doesn’t want to see his tiger so broken.

Atsushi: “I-I’ll give you everything. My loyalty, my body, my ability. Everything, just please please wait. You brought me back into this world of light. Don’t abandon me when just being around you makes me want to live again.”

Atsushi cuddles in closer and Dazai can feel the wetness against his shirt.

He sighs before wrapping his arms around the broken thing resting against him.

Dazai: “Your really not playing fair Atsushi-kun being so greedy~ But fine, I’ll wait.”

Atsushi looks up to him the spark in his eyes returning again as he smiles

Atsushi: “Thank you”

Dazai: “Yes yes, you can thank me later. Now can you please get off? As….exciting as this has been I still prefer women.”

Dazai blushes slightly as Atsushi’s just smiles at him before placing another chaste kiss at the corner of his mouth and snuggling more into his chest.

Atsushi: No, you’re too comfortable. Besides if gender is the issue then I’ll just transform when I have more energy.

Dazai still blushing at the kiss before registering what Atsushi said

Dazai:……wait what?!

Atsushi just snuggles closer ignoring Dazai’s bi-panic

(And yes Dazai did think Atsushi pinning him down and licking his blood was sexy as hell. This is where he begins to question his sexuality because of his sexy tiger boy.)

———————————————————————————————————

Over time both Atsushi and Dazai grow closer as their lives become more domestic.

He’s amused by Dazai’s childish antics.

Exasperated when the man pushes his paperwork onto him (steep learning curve given that Dazai had to teach him how to do said paperwork).

And he want to bite him whenever the man flirts with a random women in front of him.

(He does end up nipping Dazai a few times and refusing to heal him no matter how much the human complains about it. Which is a bluff Dazai learns that he does have a biting kink lol.)

He knows that Dazai can be cruel and calculating, he knows that his human probably doesn’t really care about him. That he is just using him for his abilities and the fact that Atsushi will attack anyone that harms him.

It hurts a little but Atsushi accepts this.

He finds himself loving his Dazai, faults and all and even if his feelings are unrequited he is content.

He starts to find peace in this new life, he still mourns the loss of his old life and love but is also finding happiness in his new routines with the mafioso.

But then Dazai gets assigned a mission by his “boss”, and Dazai brings him along and complains all about a “slug”.

———————————————————————

Atsushi is amused, walking along side Dazai invisibly smiling while listening to his silly human rant about his co-worker.

It’s cute and makes Atsushi curious about who could’ve made his usually calm and composed human so irate.

He stifles a giggle as Dazai starts talking about how he shouldn’t get too close to the “slug”.

How he is too good and that the slug shouldn’t be able to see his adorable kitten.

Atsushi can feel himself blush at the smile that Dazai directed at him.

Even if Dazai was just teasing him he couldn’t help but feel his heart beat faster at his beloved human’s claim.

They continue to talk about the details of the mission and how as per usual Atsushi shouldn’t reveal himself unless absolutely necessary.

It’s simple, normal for the two of them, a conversation that they’ve had many times.

But then they turn around the corner and Atsushi stops frozen in his tracks as his entire world comes crashing down.

He see’s a familiar figure.

The short stature, long orange hair, a beautiful face with dark blue eyes that matched the deepest of oceans.

The presence of a man that has power and he knows it.

Then the man turns to face them and Atsushi’s heart races cause he knows that smirk.

He’s seen it a million times on a man who made him promises laced with love, safety, and a life together that never came to pass.

A life that while sealed in that tree he thought was nothing but wishful thinking instead of memory

He doesn’t notice when he starts to run.

He doesn’t hear Dazai startled yell.

He doesn’t notice that the man actually see’s him even and looks just as shocked as him.

All he can feel is the magic running through his veins, giving all of his energy into making him as corporeal as possible because he needs to know.

He needs to make sure the man isn’t an illusion.

And as he crashes into the man’s chest he feels that familiar warmth, the power once used to crush enemies so long ago surrounds him but he doesn’t feel heavy.

It’s not malicious, its welcoming, as if embracing him back.

It’s comforting in its familiarity and Atsushi can’t help but smile as tears start to spill from his eyes.

A new warmth filling his heart as a joy rivaling when he was released from his seal.

And he snuggles closer to the stiff body underneath him, clutching onto the man like his life depends on it.

He can hear a strong heart beat and he smiles knowing that this is real.

Smell the familiar scent of flames and storms underneath the atrocious “cologne” that modern humans use.

He is real.

His beloved..

He smiles wide as he whispers

Atsushi: “Arahbahki~”

He feels the man stiffen further but still doesn’t move away but instead moves closer brushing his lips against his beloved’s neck as more tears roll down his cheeks.

Atsushi: “My dear Anata. My beloved Oni, you live. You live! My Anata! My dear love you live!”

He’s shaking as tears start to turn to full on sobs, he can feel his grip tightening and feels his Anata flinch. But pays to mind to that as joy and pain start to mix into his chest.

Atsushi: “I’m so sorry love. I-i should have b-been stronger. T-th-they tr-ticked me. I -I was so stupid s-so so scared. I-i called! I called for you! I-i thought- hic -I wouldn’t- hic. Oh Anata!”

He wants to feel his Anata hug him back, to hear his voice call him his beautiful Byakko once more, to have his love kiss his tears away like so long ago.

But it doesn’t happen.

Instead he feels his Anata push against him, he looks up confused and lets out a broken whine when he doesn’t see his beloved’s usual warm playful look.

Instead he see’s suspicion, even outright hostility.

Cold eyes devoid of the love he so desparately craved for centuries showed no recognition.

And Atsushi could feel his heart break all over again.

Familiar arms wrap behind him and he starts to struggle, to cling onto his beloved.

“Why’s he glaring at me? Does he hate me? Anata I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry! Please don’t hate me!”

He gives a broken cry when he is finally pulled off and is ready to claw at the interrupter until he hears a Dazai’s cold voice.

Dazai: “Slug I’m gonna need you to give me a moment.”

He watches as his love just stand up and dusts himself off looking before glaring at Dazai.

Chuuya: “Fine, but your gonna explain what the hell is going on!”

He feels he feels a whine build in his throat when his Anata doesn’t even look at him and then lets out a pitiful broken noise when he feels Dazai turn him around and start walking away from his beloved.

Dazai: “Oh my poor kitten, you really do have the worst luck.”

And Atsushi can only whine, even though he feels Dazai’s arms around him his heart break still breaks as the distance between him and his Anata grows once more.

———————————————————————————

After this incident we begin the DazAtsuYa!

Essentially Dazai takes Atsushi a little bit away and gives the bare basics of Chuuya’s back story to him.

How Chuuya was an expriement and is 100% human and that what he senses as “Arahbahki” is just a non-sentient power.

His love isn’t back, it’s just Chuuya. A human that has Arahbahki’s power sealed within him and nothing more.

This of course horrifies Atsushi on a lot of ways.

The idea that humans could do that to their own.

How he can now “see” his beloved but it’s only a body similar to him, the person “Chuuya-san” is a complete stranger.

And Atsushi just is so broken after this, because he was starting to heal.

After being sealed away for centuries waiting for someone to release him and then seeing how long he was sealed away he accepted that Arahbahki had died.

But now he learns that some part of his beloved is still alive just sealed away?

No thoughts, no memories, just pure rage and destruction?

It devastates him.

So Atsushi after learning all this information assumedly while Dazai is still holding him slumps before changing his form again.

He doesn’t want to be human, he doesn’t want to be seen, he’s too tired and too hurt to keep it up.

So he shrink’s down, shrinks, and shrinks until he’s nothing more than a tiger the size of a small cat clinging onto Dazai in his grief.

And Dazai sighs holding his kitten closer, petting him, and telling him that he has him.

That he won’t let Atsushi go.

———————————

But moving on after that Dazai still has a job with Chuuya and he can’t just leave because of Atsushi.

So with a sigh to himself he holds a vulnerable Atsushi close to his chest making sure to cover his little ghost tiger in his jacket. Not wanting Chuuya to see him nor for Atsushi to see the slug.

And he sighs because he’s feeling so much right now.

He’s worried for his usually optimistic tiger.

Atsushi always held such joy and curiosity in the world as soon as he was unsealed, even when he told Atsushi that Yokai are nothing but legends he didn’t have such a reaction.

Sure there was grief but also an acceptance, a gratefulness for life that Dazai couldn’t help but be jealous of.

But now Atsushi’s eyes seem just as lifeless as his own, and its all because of that damn slug!

And that is another thing!

Apparently “Arahbahki” wasn’t always just a bunch of energy, “it” was once an extremely powerful Oni Yokai that was also apparently married to Atsushi.

Seriously! The slug has to look exactly like Atsushi’s long dead husband!

And now he has to explain what’s going on to that Slug even though he really really doesn’t want to.

He wanted to keep Atsushi’s existence a secret in the first place but now that plan has went to shit and his fierce tiger has become a depressed little kitten.

But Dazai just sighs holding Atsushi closer when he gives another whimper feeling the tigers dig ever so slightly into his shirt.

*”Let’s just get this over with.”*

———————————————————————

Meanwhile Chuuya is so confused when Dazai comes back.

He was suddenly attacked by some random cosplayer who kept on calling him “Anata” and was crying nonsense to him.

But what shocked him was that even though he commanded his ability to go around the guy his gravity didn’t change.

His usual perfect control seemed to be lost as soon as the guy touched him.

And when Dazai got the guy off of him he didn’t fail to notice that the moving ears and tail didn’t go anywhere either.

Was this guy also immune to Dazai’s ability? Did his ability just mess with other abilities? No, Dazai’s ability is absolute. Then what the hell?!

Then when Dazai (who looks incredibly pissed off) comes back not with the guy but instead of a little tiger cub everything gets worse.

Dazai must have finally went mad.

Cause what do you mean he unsealed the last Yokai spirit?

What do you mean he’s been sealed away for centuries?

What do you mean the tiger swore his loyalty and life to you to repay that debt!

And what the fuck do you mean he was married to Arahbahki and is depressed cause I look like his dead husband!

Just the FUCK!

———————————————————————

Dazai and Chuuya still get the job done of course.

Atsushi briefly transforms into a giant tiger to protect Dazai.

And Chuuya is in awe because crap that is a magical fucking tiger!

The cosplayer is actually a real magical fucking tiger and Dazai wasn’t just messing with him.

…..oh shit Dazai wasn’t messing with him.

And Dazai just watches all these emotions cross Chuuya’s face while seeing how twitchy his fingers are while looking at Atsushi.

And he smirks pulling his sad little tiger closer to his chest.

Dazai: What’s the matter slug? Jealous?~

And for a moment Chuuya has the intense urge to punch Dazai in the face and grab the cat.

But instead he flips him off.

Chuuya: Screw you, you suicidal bastard. I just feel bad for the cat you somehow tricked into liking you.

And Dazai snorts and makes a joke at Chuuya’s expense to try and cheer Atsushi up, but he end up frowning cause Atsushi doesn’t act exasperated with antics as usual.

Just his little kitten snuggling closer into his neck, like he’s trying to hide from the world.

————————————————————————————————————

After the mission is a rough couple weeks.

Once Dazai returns home Atsushi essentially escaped under their bed, stays in tiger cub form, and essentially acts like a depressed cat.

And Dazai tries take care of Atsushi because he doesn’t know how to comfort him.

He brings him his favorite food.

Gets more pillows and blankets to make him comfortable.

Holds him and shows him pictures of places all around the world to spark that childish wonder again.

He just wants Atsushi to smile again. To walk with him, playfully nip at him, and scold him for not being careful And I just imagine Dazai just petting Atsushi while reminding him of Atsushi’s promise. That Atsushi promised him his “everything”.

That all Dazai wants right now is to see his Tiger smile again. And maybe that little talk mixed with everything else encourages Atsushi to eat that Chazuke. ——————————————————————————— Meanwhile Chuuya actually starts to dream which freaks him the F out since he’s never had dreams before.

And they all relates back to the tiger (who he learns through the dreams is named “Atsushi”)

It’s so weird because he see’s a younger, thinner, and more snappy version of Atsushi wearing nothing but a thin raggedy kimono.

He see’s the tiger come to him and try to stay by his side even when his “dream” self was an ass.

Sometimes they eat together, joke together, laugh, and cry together.

It’s like seeing a life time happen right before his eyes.

He see’s himself taking Atsushi’s hand, kissing it, and watching the tiger blush.

He see’s how Atsushi would hold heal him and then smile at him so happily before curling up to his side to snuggle up to him.

He see’s himself taking a kiss from the tiger and how his gorgeous twighlight eyes widen in surprise before returning the kiss just as hard.

Chuuya even has a particular dream of holding Atsushi in his arms and well lets just things get a bit *spicy*~

They would talk of love, of marriage, of having a family together, of Atsushi carrying a child.

His child.

Chuuya can admit these dreams were rather embarrassing though it did make him curious about the tiger in Dazai’s possession.

But he refrained, the tiger was already freaked out by seeing him, didn’t want to traumatize the guy even more if this wasn’t just his messed up brain imagining things cause he finds the tiger attractive.

(Side note there are a lot of sexy dreams lol)

And then the nightmare happens.

A nightmare where he can’t find his *”beautiful Byakko”*

He see’s himself searching, yelling out for him, and then panicking cause he can’t find him!

Why can’t he find him?

Where is he?!?

And he finds the trail and follows it.

He finds torn bloody cloth from Atsushi’s favorite kimono.

And as he goes further he finds a tree splattered with too much blood and a sickening feeling in his gut.

Because he knows his beloved is gone.

He’s gone…

He’s gone and someone hurt him!

Someone killed his beloved!

His sweet, kind, and beautiful Byakko.

His adorable tiger who hated fighting and killing, who would rather heal and gather herbs to impress him with.

His beloved Atsushi who would hold him in his arms and against his chest without fear of the “monster amongst monster” ripping his heart out.

Who was the first person to give him words of love and acceptance.

His wife, the man he had planned to spend the rest of his life with protecting and providing for, the one who was going to bear his child, is dead.

Probably died terrified, alone, calling for him in hopes of rescue.

All in vain.

*“He’s sorry, oh dear beloved nonono, I should have protected you. Why wasn’t I there! How could I fail you! Who the FUCK did this to you! I’LL KILLE’M KILL’EM KILL KILL KILL!”*

Chuuya has felt pain before but nothing so intense as that all encompassing as the SORROW and HATERED that made his insides burn.

Then he wakes up and Chuuya feels like he’s going mad because this isn’t him!

These aren’t his memories or his feelings!

And he only has one way to get his answers and move on from all of these horrible feelings and memories.

So in Chuuya like fashion rips the doors off of Dazai shipping container to find the bastard petting the tiger cub underneath the bed.

Of course Dazai complains about this but Chuuya just continues on his way.

Chuuya rolls his eyes Chuuya: Oh please you probably have a million other backup places just as shitty as this one.

He then makes his way past Dazai and gets on the floor to see a sufficiently spooked tiny tiger underneath the bed.

I could imagine his eye softening as he tries to speak gently.

Chuuya: Alright so…I need to talk to you about a lot of things right now. So I would really appreciate it if you could come out Atsushi.

And I could imagine both Dazai’s and Atsushi’s eyes widening. Because Dazai never told Chuuya Atsushi’s name.

——————————————————————————

After this I can imagine Atsushi reluctantly agree’s to talk but keeps himself behind Dazai because looking at Chuuya right now is just way too painful.

He explains his story. About how “Byakko” or a white tiger yokai were hated and hunted because they were healers and their bodies could be used for potent medicines.

How he met Arahbahki and fell in love.

How they had planned to have a child but it required him to store a lot of energy to change his form so it could have the baby.

How because of that when the other yokai tricked him he couldn’t truly defend himself.

How he was sealed away until Dazai came into the picture.

And Dazai and Chuuya are kinda horrified by how painful Atsushi’s story is.

But Atsushi just smiles bitterly and shakes his head because there is nothing he can do and how talking about it helped with the grief somewhat.

(After hearing all this Chuuya doesn’t ask more about the dreams since he doesn’t want to hurt the tiger even more)

From there on Atsushi leans against Dazai before apologizing to Chuuya, for treating him like someone else. That if possibly he would like to become friends and if that is too much then at least get along since Dazai and Chuuya are work partners.

You know just being sweet.

And Chuuya, well Chuuya is sufficiently charmed by this sweet little tiger and Dazai starts getting jealous.

Because like hell is he letting the slug steal his tiger!

———————————————————————————————

The rest of the story would be about Atsushi and Chuuya slowly befriending each other.

(Granted Chuuya is constantly fighting the urge to kiss, hug, and even bite the tiger amongst other things lol)

And a part of Atsushi does fall in love with Chuuya as well but denies himself because he promised his all to Dazai

Meanwhile Dazai gets closer of their budding relationship and constantly tries to separate them as much as possible.

It all comes to ahead when Dazai and Chuuya get sent to a mission where “Corruption would have to be used.

Dazai specifically told Atsushi he wasn’t allowed to join but still does anyways because he doesn’t want to see his two precious people hurt.

Then he see’s Chuuya’s corrupted form and moves without a second of hesitation.

I can imagine Atsushi running towards a corrupted Chuuya who is screaming in pain and rage.

Of Dazai trying to stop him because he doesn't want the gravitons to destroy his tiger.

But then Atsushi embraces Chuuya, and this corrupted Chuuya doesn't move away. Still out of his mind Atsushi lifts Chuuya's face and those pupiless eyes are crying as if something deep inside of Chuuya's corrupted state recognizes the tiger.

And Atsushi smiles gently cupping Chuuya's cheek in his hand, he's crying but his expression is so full of love and sadness. And Chuuya, still in his corrupted state, hugs Atsushi for dear life bites him in the neck which hurts but thats fine to Atsushi. It’s familiar and in a way comforting and Atsushi cradles him while using his power to heal Chuuya's body.

In the end Atsushi is just holding a peacfully sleeping Chuuya while Dazai is left flabbergasted about what he had just witnessed.

——————————————————————————

Dazai and Chuuya still get jealous of each other and of course fuck up trying to force Atsushi to choose.

Chuuya wants him but Atsushi is adamant on not betraying Dazai.

And Dazai says some particular horrible things about “never should’ve released you in the first place if I knew you were going to be so much trouble.”

(Which he regrets immediately after seeing how heartbroken Atsushi looks before running away from him. )

It all ends up with Dazai and Chuuya compromising because they love Atsushi and don’t want him to constantly feel miserable because of their feelings for him.

Atsushi is their tiger, and they are his humans~

What more can I say?

——————————————————

And that’s all folks! I might make separate dribbles on my head cannons for this relationship and characters later! Hope you enjoyed this and please leave a comment or ask questions because my gosh their is so so sooooo much more to this au that I’ve discussed with @venelona lol.

Fanfic idea- Supernatural Atsushi AU part 2

Note: @Venelona made some awesome fanart and now I must respectfully respond in kind with my rambling ideas! Hope ya’ll enjoy this one!

Also technically this idea could stand alone as its own thing but for context on this Drabble please click here for part 1: https://www.tumblr.com/lightreader1/779777145352454144/fanfic-idea-supernatural-atsushi-au-part-1-note?source=share

Anyways again I hope yall enjoy reading and leave a comment if you are so inclined! : D

————————————————————————————————————

Prompt: Atsushi is a tiger yokai that had been sealed into a tree, he yearned for freedom only to be saved centuries later by a suicidal human.

Actual idea-

So as the prompt explains Atsushi is a tiger yokai that has been sealed into a tree for centuries.

Now I imagine that while sealed inside of a tree Atsushi isn’t completely unaware of the passing of time it’s just incredibly warped.

Like being on the cusps of sleep, he’s just awake enough to make a few minutes feel like hours.

He can murmurs and noises from the world around his tree but can’t exactly make out the words.

He’s lonely and hates being in the darkness of his own mind.

He misses the one he loves, he misses the sun, the stars, the mountains, and even the sight of other yokai.

As the centuries pass by he becomes more depressed in the tree as he beings to forget what the world outside of the tree was like. He worries that maybe the life he had before was not even real, just a figment of his imagination.

That perhaps the yokai actually did kill him and this was the punishment for not being strong enough to survive.

And so he waits and eventually losing hope that he would ever be free of this hell.

That is until Dazai comes along.

———————————————

(Now in this universe Dazai is around his cannon age of 22 but is still in the mafia, my reasoning? Odasaku did still die but Dazai just didn’t make it in time to hear his final words. So lets just say he’s still rather dark but also really hates Mori aaaaaannnnnndddddd maybe is planning on eventually killing him to take over but that is neither here nor there lol)

Anyways Dazai and some of his men are tracking an enemy gang in one of more rural area’s of Yokohama. This leads them to a rundown shrine where that the gang has been using as a home base.

As expected of Port mafia executive Dazai he completely demolishes them but is disappointed that he still survived the encounter. So he decides to take a walk about the area while his men take care of cleaning and getting information out of a couple of survivors.

He comes to a huge decorated tree that seems so out of place in Yokohama, so in typical Dazai fashion he goes over to touch it and be poetic about his thoughts.

He doesn’t expect to feel “No longer human” activate he touched the tree.

So he was quite surprised by a huge gush of wind knocks him back on his ass as the centuries old decorations around the tree are broken.

He grabs his gun and expects to see some sort of ability user. But instead he see’s an incredibly beautiful but hurt young man wearing an old fashioned kimono fall out of the tree’s tuck, seemingly in a confused daze.

But as Dazai continues to observe he notices that not only is the man’s injuries healing in mere seconds but that he has tiger ears and tail.

He’s obviously a skill user, he has to be, there is no other explanation for everything that just happened.

But then the tiger man seems to become more aware and starts looking at everything with a fascination that Dazai has only seen in children.

Then the man-tiger finally notices him and in a blink of an eye small soft hands are holding the hand not occupied with his gun.

So of course he carefully watches and is amazed to find that the ears and tail do not dissapear, and when the creature finally looks up at him Dazai’s breath catches at the pure joy in those violet and gold eyes.

And Atsushi, Atsushi is so grateful to this human who had unknowingly freed him from his hell.

———————————————————————————

From there on Atsushi latches onto Dazai.

He feels like he owes Dazai a life-debt so in order to repay him he offers himself and his abilities to the mafioso.

Of course Dazai is equally fascinated and cautious.

Because what the hell, this shouldn’t be possible! He should’ve nullified the tiger’s ability but he seemingly has no ability even though he heals at an insanely quick rate and again has tiger features!

Though Dazai becomes more and more intrigued by Atsushi as time goes on.

Turns out the tiger cannot only heal himself but also others.

(Yea my headcannon is that the main reason tiger yokai was hated by other yokai is because they were known as neutral party healers. They had the capacity for great strength but they just instinctively preferred to heal others instead.

Which made other yokai hate them because they made killing their enemies incredibly hard.

But also Tiger yokai bones could be used as a cure all medicine that would not only heal but also strengthen a person.

So yea thats the reason why yokai tigers were hunted and hated in Atsushi’s time).

So much to Dazai’s annoyance Atsushi continues to thwart Dazai’s sucicide attempts by constantly healing him.

He tries to scare the tiger off by showing him how dark the mafia can be, and yet the tiger is not phased and instead keeps trying to find other ways to make him happy.

Their bond grows as Atsushi starts falling in love with his exasperating but silly human who keeps trying to kill himself.

In a way Atsushi can empathize with Dazai’s disillusionment with the world but wants to show him how absolutely wonderful the world can be (espiescally since he spent so long in total isolation and darkness), he just wants Dazai to live a long and happy life.

Meanwhile Dazai is again kinda annoyed by Atsushi and tries to scare him off but is unsuccessful, instead he is constantly entertained by Atsushi’s antics and surprised by this gentle but fiercely protective creature that declares his loyalty towards him.

They do eventually bond even more when they share their grief about losing their loved ones (Oda/Arahbaki).

Dazai keeps denying himself this relationship, keeps convincing himself that the tiger is nothing but a useful new tool that he can use and play with as he pleases.

(Cause you know Dazai is an asshole in denial.)

But this all comes to a head when his usually affectionate and loyal tiger suddenly tackle hugs the damn slug.

It pisses him off even more when the tiger starts clinging to him and calling the slug “Anata”.

(For context in Japanese wives usually refer to their husband as “Anata”, from my understanding it’s another way to say beloved or darling.)

This of course pisses Dazai off.

Because Atsushi is his tiger!

Atsushi promised to stay with him and like hell is he going to just sit by and let that home wrecking slug just steal him away!

And I can just imagine Dazai pulling Atsushi off of a confused and freaked out Chuuya and glaring at him while holding Atsushi possessively.

Ya know all the drama! XD

Fanfic idea- Supernatural Atsushi AU part 1

Note: Inspired by a post from @venelona and because I have a lot of idea’s on this I’m gonna make a part 1 (ChuuAtsu), part 2 (DazAtsu), and possibly a part three (which would be DazAtsuYa. Please don’t judge~~~~

Prompt: Atsushi is a young and weak tiger spirit who falls in love and tragically gets sealed away.

Actual idea-

(So this takes place in the same BSD world that we all know and love just hundreds of years in the past, in a time when Yokai were the dominant species in the world.

Yokai are essentially immortal spirits made of pure energy otherwise known as “magic”. When a yokai “dies, usually in combat since they're essentially ageless, their physical body’s basically disintegrates and their energy is absorbed by the world around them. This will be the eventual reason why humans gain abilities as they essentially absorb this magic like a plant would absorb the suns rays.)

Atsushi is a gentle tiger yokai who was abandoned when he was very young.

I imagine that yokai of that time would shun and bully Atsushi because Tiger yokai are basically extinct and thus seen as very weak.

So over the years Atsushi just tried his best to survive while being hated by the yokai around him.

One day he was basically forced to travel through a territory that belonged to one of, if not the most powerful yokai in the land. One who was revered and feared for his brutality and love of destruction.

Arahabaki

Atsushi does meet Arahabaki and finds the older yokai to be abrasive and foul mouthed but also rather lonely. Atsushi having nothing to really lose and being incredibly lonely himself, decides to try and befriend him. Arahbaki seems annoyed with him at first, he even threatened the tiger a few times. But he never actually tried to hurt Atsushi. This in turn encourages Atsushi to continue to try and befriend him.

Arahbahki respects Atsushi’s bravery and determination, but he ends up falling in love with Atsushi’s gentle nature. He admires Atsushi's strength to be kind even though life has not been kind to him.

Meanwhile Atsushi see's the good in Arahabahki finds him honorable, intelligent, and to be so much more than the terrifying youkai that his reputation makes others think.

Eventually the two grow closer and closer until at some point their friendship grows into something more.

Their friendship turns to love and they become partners in all things.

Arahbaki would protect Atsushi and their territory while Atsushi would heal him in return.

But the world is not kind.

Other Yokai learn of how Atsushi has “bewitched” the dangerous Arahbaki and worry that he would sick his lover on them out of revenge.

(Now they don’t actually believe that Arahbaki cares about Atsushi, they just think the tiger somehow became his pet. Granted a well cared for pet but a pet none the less.

In other words absolutely useless in the eyes of the other yokai.)

So in a mixture of jealousy, pettiness, and fear they decide to do something about it.

They trick Atsushi into leaving Arabahki’s territory by using his own gentle nature against him.

(What I’m saying is that they beg Atsushi for “help” with saving their friend and Atsushi, even though he hated the way he was treated could not in good conscience ignore their pleas for help.)

They of course are assholes to Atsushi and hurt him, but instead of killing the young tiger yokai they decide to have him sealed away.

(Remember about how I mentioned that yokai are essentially energy? Well I imagine sealing a yokai requires a person to seriously hurt their physical body to near death before forcing the dying Yokai’s energy into some object or living thing. In this case I imagine that Atsushi would be sealed inside of a tree, cause I’m very unoriginal about this lol. )

So poor Atsushi terrified, hurt, and yearning for his lover gets sealed away unaware that he wouldn't see the light of day for centuries as he waits for someone to release him.

And the criminals who sealed Atsushi away make off their merry way satisfied that they would remain safe now that the tiger can no longer tattle on them while also being confident that Arahabaki would just get over having his “pet” run away.

Meanwhile Arahbahki gets worried about his lover so he searches for him until he finds where Atsushi was sealed.

Yea funny thing is that everyone knows Arahabaki is incredibly powerful and brutal yokai, but no one expects him to be actually intelligent or know how to hunt someone down.

So when he finds the tree were his lover was sealed, he see’s too much blood for a yokai to survive, and senses Atsushi’s magic all around the area and well……he makes the assumption that someone murdered Atsushi.

This of course enrages Arahabahki and makes him curse the world that took Atsushi from him.

So in a fit of rage and hatred he begins to essentially destroy everything and everyone he can.

Mostly yokai since they are again the dominant species in the world and cause humans know when to run away.

He doesn’t care if they are guilty, he doesn’t care that they are innocent.

He is just in too much pain to care, too angry to think rationally.

He continues and continues until he loses himself in his own madness and hatred.

It all comes to a head when he does eventually take enough damage and “dies” while wiping out essentially the entire yokai population which gave humans the chance to rise and abilities to become more widespread.

Going back to Atsushi he has been sealed away for centuries unaware of the world around him only to be awakened by Port mafia executive Dazai thanks to “No Longer Human” accidentally unsealing him.

Atsushi of course being terrified and confused latches on to the suicidal man like life raft in a turbulent ocean.

Because as it turns out, thanks to being sealed for centuries, unless Atsushi really concentrates on his physical body he’s essentially a ghost to the humans around him with a few exceptions.

Atsushi grieves the loss of the world he once known, the man he loved, and tries to find a new reason to live by repaying the human who had unsealed him.

(AKA: Atsushi becomes the reason why all of Dazai’s suicidal attempts fails but I’ll into that more into part two lol.)

It all comes to ahead when Dazai goes to some executive meeting and brings Atsushi along with him (cause as far as Dazai is aware Atsushi can just hang out as a ghost).

Then Atsushi see’s Chuuya Nakahara and thanks to Arahbaki’s influence Chuuya see’s him.

They both freeze.

Atsushi because Chuuya looks exactly like Arahbaki and gives off the same energy as his past love.

And Chuuya because for the first time in his life the unstable energy inside him actually settles while looking at the pretty guy that Dazai brought in for the meeting.

Suffice to say Atsushi doesn’t hesitate to tackle hug Chuuya and absolutely break down.

Meanwhile Chuuya is on a constant loop of WTF! He's blushing while wondering why he can’t use his ability on the pretty guy hugging him like a stuffed animal!

(Spoilers a small sentient part of Arahbahki that’s still alive in Chuuya refuses to hurt Atsushi in any capacity.)

(And yes Dazai is also in on this WTF train but again I’ll explore on that more in part 2.)
