|| RANPO EDOGAWA ||

// Altered Page AU \\

Eventually, I'll post an APAU character sheet for him, along with a design analysis/explanation included with it.

More AU info for those interested:

Note : (I saw a couple people on here saying they were interested in my altered page au(and hsr x bsd au—im working on both at the same time), and i have a couple irls who actively get on my ass about working on it haha, so that was enough to give me the motivation to start working on it again and making more drawings for it... expect a lot of au related artwork ^^)

The Altered Page AU(APAU) is my own bsd AU where Fyodor was actually in the helicopter crash, survived, and rewrote The Page to revert, rewind, and change reality to find The Book. This causes several characters to belong to different affililiations(Sigma, Oda, Akutagawa, Shibusawa, Gin, etc), have different backstories(Akutagawa, Atsushi, Sigma, etc), in some cases have minor/major personality changes(Nikolai, Chuuya, etc), and to make different choices than they made from events in canon.

In the APAU, Ranpo is one of the few characters that is mentally the same as their canon counterpart. The other two that are the same as canon are Dazai and Fyodor.

All the other characters do not remember anything from the canon universe.

Out of the three characters that remember canon, Ranpo is the only one that was technically altered by the page rewrite. He is younger via the page writing, but still has the same mentality, knowledge, memories, and mind of his 26 year old self. He is just in a younger(by a couple/few years) body, like almost everyone else in the AU.

Ranpo is on good terms with Kunikida, Dazai, (eventually) Nikolai, and Yosano.

His relations with Sigma, Fukuzawa, and Atsushi are iffy/complicated. For the beginning of the AU, Sigma absolutely hates Ranpo(they may or may not end up dating, haha...) (I am a rarepair shipper. I dont ship mainy mainstream ships, so dont expect skk, fyolai, etc.)

He hates/is enemies with Fyodor and Shibusawa. Possibly Bram, too, in a way.

Ranpo is also one of the characters who suffers the most in this AU. Having several existential breakdowns, getting stabbed on several different occasions, and having to deal with Fyodor and the DOA/Rats actively trying to get rid of him.

i made an uquiz idk if anyone wants to try it this is a shameless plug

[a-simply-simping-simp]

Just woke up thinking about this and I need tumblr to be my therapist for a second because I just need to explain my thoughts.

When I first watched BSD (Bungo Stray Dogs), I was ok with Ranpo. I didn't like nor dislike him until I saw his backstory. The story that made most fans cry made me feel so...unsettled. It was like looking in a mirror and it scared me.

I never believed in kinning before him. Relating to an anime character? A BSD one at that? I feel like people are just projecting because it's their favorite character. Those were my thoughts. But then I met Ranpo.

I understood him. I felt what that felt like when I saw his backstory. I felt like part of me was on the screen. For the first time ever, I felt truly related to someone on the screen. It scared me a lot. I kinned a person. RANPO AT THAT.

Actually seeing a part of me I activley try to ignore and deny was a slap to the face for me. It scared me. So for a while, I avoided him. I avoided media or fan content with him in it. Of course, he's in the show, so I can't avoid him forever though. I didn't like him because he scared me.

My entire life I felt like I couldn't connect with people. Not as in I couldn't be friends with anyone, though, that is also true. I didn't understand anyone around me. To me, I was a human. I was sentient, capable of complex thoughts, and I was able to lie and "control the 'people' around me". Looking back, that was a stupid sentiment.

I was human and everyone around me was an npc. That was pretty scary for me. I didn't understand the difference between us as a child. Though I knew that everyone around me was something other than me, I only saw me and them. And if I just said a simple hello, it could become us. I miss that.

When I met Ranpo on screen, it was the moment he said it was like they were all monsters that scared me. There was something he didn't have. Something he didn't understand. That's what he thought, but in reality, it's that he's the one who has something that everyone else doesn't.

For me, it truly was just something I didn't have. And for my whole life, I've been trying to figure it out. What makes them different from me? It didn't make any sense. Everyone understood something that I didn't. Everyone had this "rule" to being a human being that I didn't know about. And that was scary.

Dazai was a bit different for me. I loved him from day -30. Literally. I watched complimations of him being stupid months before I watched the show. Years even. I didn't kin him at all and he was just a silly but complicated guy for me. But then I noticed something after realizing I kinned Ranpo.

My whole life I felt that I was the only human and everyone around me was an npc. But really, it was more that everyone around me was a human and I was...something else. I didn't know what. But it wasn't human. I mean, obviously I am physically and in every scientific way, human, but there's something missing, y'know?

Thinking about it makes me feel so cringe but I really can't explain it any other way.

I don't consider myself a Dazai kinnie because even I can't completely understand the reason he thinks himself not human. I just related a small bit to the sentiment.

So as a um...thing hiding itself as a human, I felt exposed when I was confronted with Ranpo. I eventually came to terms with it and now I like Ranpo. Though he still unsettles me because of the similarity.

So yeah. That was my vent. :)

[orionthenightfury]

I'm sorry but you can NOT convince me that this guy fucks. LOOK AT HIM. He is an anti-social introvert with social anxiety who only seems to like one speficific person.

I love Poe, but he is a virgin loser and would probably stay that way his whole life if not for Ranpo.

[foxglovetawny]

My BSD kins and why I kin them:

I don't actually have a lot but I wanted to make this list regardless

Dazai

I kin Dazai mostly because I'm a compulsive, pathological liar. When faced with a conflict, my first instinct is to lie. Regardless of who I'm lying to(myself, my family, my friends, etc). This habit has made me very good at lying. So much so that I have a tendency to manipulate and be dishonest to my friends and family in order to avoid them posessing negative views towards me. I don't like lying and I try not to, but I simply do not understand why it's bad.

On a deeper level, I kin Dazai because I'm constantly seeking for a reason to live. Everyday I wake up without motivation to do anything, and I go to sleep with dread that I will wake up the next day. Life is just an ongoing loop of meaningless events. I feel as though I have a gaping hole in my chest, and I constantly try to fill that hole with my lies. I make jokes about wanting to die and act childish around my friends as a coping mechanism. I constantly tell myself, "My friends and family really do care about me," but it simply does not work. I feel only capable of feeling empathy(not sympathy), because I can't understand other people's pain until I go through it myself. This results in my lack of understanding of why most morals are the way they are.

Chuuya

I kin Chuuya mostly because I'm short. I constantly get made fun of for my height and weight. I am forced to turn to violence on a weekly basis, simply because no one takes me seriously. I fear the appearance of weakness, so I either compress my emotions or express them in a form of anger. I have not cried in a year due to this. I talk about the people I care about a lot, but in a way that doesn't express my regard for them. Sometimes I'll call them when I'm not in my right mind, just to call them slurs(dont worry I can say them). They find this entertaining. I would sacrifice my reputation and risk everything to avenge my friends, even if it may not be possible at the moment.

Ranpo

Ranpo lower on the list because I don't kin him that much. Though I am not that intelligent, my intelligence is like Ranpo's. Instead of creating plans to reach my goals like Dazai and Fyodor does, I'm more able to notice patterns in behavior. This allows me to deduce certain things about people, including their insecurities, occupation, and type of intelligence. I used to be able to figure out people's class schedules back in high school using small clues I picked up in their dialogue.

Unfortunately, I still don't understand people. I constantly struggle to fit in and I don't know why. It feels like everyone gets each other while I'm just the outlier. I ache to be like everyone else, but I have accepted that such a thing is unachievable.

Nikolai

I kin Nikolai because I feel trapped. I feel like my emotions are limiting me. Being an HSP, I am more empathetic than normal. Actions that remind me of my own past experiences deeply effect me, and I want to be free from them. I don't want to feel emotional attachment, but I can't help it. Like Dazai, I constantly mask my emotions and appear to be childish and immature. I am a sadist, but I can't tell whether I actually feel pleasure in seeing other people's pain, or if it is just another lie I have convinced myself of to make myself feel more free.

Side note: I've only read and watched bsd once so some of these might be wrong, please cut me some slack lmao.

Why is Ranpo aplogizing in this scene ?

Okay, so your favorite Ranpo variant is here to explain a small scene in the season 4 of BSD (3rd ep & untold origins) because I saw a lot of people not understanding why Ranpo is apologizing to Fukuzawa in this scene !

As always : This is MY interpretation of what happened in the manga i'm not Asagiri so i'm just giving my opinion and i'm not here to impose it.

For me there are a few explanations of why he's apologizing but first, as someone who's learning japanese (so i'm not a professional) i'm gonna try to analyze/explain the exact way he said "sorry" :

In Japanese there are a loooot of way to say "sorry" here (animated version) Ranpo used : ごめんなさい (gomen nasai) it's a way of apologizing that is less polite than the basic すみません (sumimasen) but it's way more impacting than the contractions of it (gomen ne; gomen). So he's talking "unpolietly" (ig that it's bc of his young age) but it is still really meaningful as he could have used one of the contractions, which, for me, means that he respects Fukuzawa a lot (we can also notice this, thanks to the fact that he calls Fuku in the 1st ep of the s4 "Mr.Bodyguard" with the suffix "さん"(san) which proves respect (we translate it by Mr or Mrs most of the times))

1st part of my hypothesis : I think that he's apologizing first of all because he understood how much his behavior terrified Fuku. Not in a way like "Fuku is scared of Ranpo" no, it's not that. It's that Fuku cares ab Ranpo, a lot, more than he actually admits it at this moment; and knowing that Ranpo was in danger scared him (even if he knew that Ranpo actually did it on purpose, that's btw why he is yelling at him right after the slap, he wasn't rlly mad he was just scared). And when Ranpo understood that (after Fuku slapped & screamed at him) he decided to apologize to him for scaring him so much.

2nd part of my hypothesis : This second part goes a bit with the 1st one bc Ranpo apologized bc he understood that Fuku was scared and because at the same time he understands how important he is to Fuku. Like, if Fuku was scared it means he cares ab Ranpo right ? And as Ranpo never had (after his parents' death) someone that actually cared about him he apologized so Fukuzawa wouldn't be mad at him and would keep him (Ran) by his side.

3rd part of my hypothesis : Same, it goes with the previous one, because in addition of understanding how important he (Ran) is to Fuku, he also understood how Fukuzawa is important to him. Indeed, Fuku brought to Ranpo an healthy father figure, someone he could rely on (also especially because Fuku was one of the 1st ppl to actually believe in Ranpo abalities), which was what Ranpo actually needed. This gives to Ranpo another reason not to want to see Fukuzawa leaving him bc he (Fuku) would be mad at him.

In conclusion, we can say that Ranpo by apologizing wanted mostly to prove to Fuku that he was worthy to stay with him. Especially beceause Fukuzawa is a really important (emotionally) person for Ranpo.

I really hope you all got what i tried to explain, i really like to explain stuff especially ab BSD and Ranpo so if any of you have questions i'll be honored to answer it <3 ; Have a good day/night kiss kiss
