kunikida didn’t say “you’re a weartiger grow some wearballs” for you to be moping around like a damsel in distress

Penny for your thoughts?

I missed working with colors, so I took the liberty of just relaxing and shading this piece you all seemed to like~

If you'd rather be a nurse or warden~ I think he'd watch you go through his file like so. Maybe just observe you at your post or write things down.

Now, what if you were his cellmate? You tell me.

Mushitaro and Ango are both so bitchy in their own way like, if i were in that car i would have jumped out. I also think they should make out.

Let's play a game called Is This Symbolism or Is He Just Pretty

Quite literally one of my favourite moments ever in this series 

[chuuyaandreaderkilldazai]

characters as things friends + family have said

fyodor: don’t kill yourself.

dazai: cause time will do it for you.

fyodor: *gasp*

dazai: it’s true.

fyodor: no it’s not. time isn’t going to kill me, jesus is.

this is So Much

1. their shadows being the same but going to different sides. specifically, the sides we see them positioned in in the prison scenes (fyodor to the left, dazai to the right)

2. fyodor being in an unnatural color for a human, while dazai just looks like himself. in atsushi’s mind, fyodor is this creature beyond humanity, something not like him. his dialogue - calling fyodor a monster - even backs that up. meanwhile, dazai is the man who gave him a home and a new family to belong to. he doesn’t doubt dazai’s humanity, and so he looks up to him.

2a. notice that fyodor’s shade of blue is very similar to the shade of blue the decay of angels is represented in in the op’s face frames, rather than the blue used for the ada’s abilities

3. the colors of the backgrounds also play a part in that. they’re actually the colors of their abilities, i’m pretty sure (tho no longer human tends to appear more blue-ish in tint at times).

3a. red could very easily be a color to instill fear in atsushi, as the color of rashoumon, as well as. well. blood. basically, it is a color of danger in general, but especially to him.

3b. white, a color of purity, neutrality - in a situation of everyone being against you, a color to indicate safety. alternatively: a symbol of objectivity, which atsushi is looking for in order to make a decision. ...and another option: white is atsushi’s color. him seeing dazai standing surrounded by it in his mind is a sign of his trust in dazai and the impact dazai has on his psyche

4. as for the actual shapes in the background, my only thoughts are about fyodor’s red lines looking either like cuts - fits how violent his plans are - or like red string you use on conspiracy boards - works with him being the brain behind the plan, and tying the conspiracy to the detective agency

5. dazai’s pose is the same one he held when he first introduced himself to atsushi. i take it this is how he’s cemented in his mind. i don’t really have an idea for fyodor’s pose, but he kinda looks like he’s being crucified, which i wouldn’t put past him honestly.

5a. fyodor’s also standing with his back turned, highlighting the alienation atsushi feels from him, while dazai is facing him (but, not fully. imo both to fit that original pose^ but could also be a nod to his current separation from the agency)

these are my takes for you today. really interested to hear if i missed anything or if you have any other ideas for the details i did present! 👀
