So the story is that I was just scrolling through tumblr for a bit and found a post that say(questioning) that ranpo is gay and I was like
"Wait,Huh? WHAT!??? WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT!! WHAT DO YOU MEAN IRL!RANPO IS GAY!??"
(Here the link if you wondering)
I was shocked I was completely shocked like my mind was just repeating a sentence
"Irl!ranpo is GAY??!"
So I calm down a bit go to Google and search and found a reddit post kinda explaining the part "irl!ranpo is gay"
So the gist of it was ranpo and his friend name Iwata who was anthropologist that spent years researching the history of homosexuality in Japan, during the 1930s edogawa and Iwata had a competition to see who could find the most books about erotic desire between man.
Edogawa dedicated himself finding books published in the west and Iwata dedicated himself finding books published in japan
But unfortunately, iwata died in 1945 leaving with only part of his work published so edogawa worked to have the remaining work on queer historiography published.
And there was also this too "Vision and Putrescence: Edogawa Rampo Rereading Edgar Allan Poe"(you will also find this in the reddit post link that I put up there) that talk about his sexual indentity and heterosexual love? (Idk know how to explain it though but if i have to sum it up I will take a page from the reddit post and said "A quote verifying that Edogawa Ranpo was almost certainly gay.")
This is why I love irl author fact so much like, they have things about them that we don't know yet and when we find out it just leave us completely shocked
Like seriously iam so completely shocked right now to the point that iam completely ignoring my homework to write this
(Also a reminder iam not a researcher who did some kind of in depth research about this, this post is just me finding some kind of fact about irl!author if there is any misconception then iam sorry also if you want to discuss more about this then feel free to comment in the tag or the comment section but I will not accept any hate comment if you don't like it just scrolled past it this will not affect your life)
P.S: while I was writing this I just remember that I have some post that I haven't finished and edited or post yet but if you curious about it then I could said one is about kinda related to jouno, one is atsushi and one is just random, I might post it if I have the motivation but maybe it will take a while
the way that one line from the new epilogue in an astarion romance is going to HAUNT me
just. what a profoundly intense thing to confess to someone.
like, just these six months of newfound happiness with you exerts a force on his heart equal and in direct opposition to two centuries of endless torment, the gnawing hunger and exploitation. this flashbulb-bright fraction of his long life holds the same gravity to him as years upon years of darkness and suffering.
in all likelihood, he hasn’t even known his lover for as long as his worst memory lasted, that year sealed away to go mad from starvation and sensory deprivation, yet he still tells them this brief time has been so fundamentally and powerfully important that the weight of even that unimaginable hell is vanishingly small compared to this present he has now and the future ahead of them both.
Do lock shock and barrel ever do that thing where after you go clothes shopping you do a little fashion show to your friends to show off the new clothes? Also would shocks girlfriend join?
No fashion shows but we have noticed we've been looking...cooler lately 😎
there. did you see that? I just reblogged a jegulus post. and then...and then I reblogged a jily post.
let it sink in.
it's possible. please STOP throwing hate at people who ship jegulus exclusively (or jily exclusively, except they don't get NEARLY as much hate as the people who ship jegulus exclusively...) !! you're turning off people who ship both jily and jegulus to the fandom on the whole, and even jily!!
(I love jily SO much! I love jily more than I love jegulus, but I really hate what some of the jily fandom has become.)
y'all ever think abt how it was julie having the affair and it is even said multiple times that she was the one who left him, yet wilson was still the one who left their home and moved in with house. like. he couldn't bear to stay in their home alone. he immediately ran to house and stayed on his couch for weeks. suffered through his pranks and his laziness and his manipulation. telling him he wants him gone while sabotaging his attempts to leave. and he only left once he got a girlfriend again.
it’s obvious to everyone that dazai is so smart, but the truth is, he has such a selective memory. if he doesn’t want to do paperwork … it’s simply out of his mind. he’s forgotten about it, and now it’s someone else’s task, something that annoys kunikida endlessly.
you ask him about it once and he laughs it off, tells you that it’s so he can make more room in his memory for the important things. which, you suppose, makes sense; even people like dazai have limits.
still, you’re not sure what he means by important things if that doesn’t include his work assignments.
it’s just another dazai mystery that you put out of your mind until you fall in love with him.
when you get together, after weeks of pining over one another, dazai brings by some desserts you love. you wonder how he knew they were your favorites, but you figure someone at the agency must have told him, and don’t think too much of it.
then, he buys you a new book you mentioned once that you wanted to read. there’s a little note scribbled in the cover, and he smiles cheekily when you have no idea what to say.
every day, he starts bringing you coffee to work, exactly how you like it, even though you’re certain you never told him.
it isn’t until dazai’s on his phone, scrolling through upcoming films, that you understand.
you’re laying your head on his lap when he shows you the phone screen. “that movie you’ve been wanting to see is out tomorrow,” he says like it’s no big deal.
and you have been wanting to see it, but you hadn’t talked with him about it in weeks. not since the trailer came out, and you told him in nothing more than a passing comment that it looks like it’ll be good.
you stare back at him, surprised that he remembered, but he’s flown past it. he’s already making a plan of when you’ll watch it, wondering if you wanted to make an entire night out of it.
it hits you then, a wave of emotions that has you tearing up, even though dazai has no idea what could’ve possibly upset you.
and you realize important things to dazai are really just things about you. that even if it meant sacrificing space in his memory, the places where routine chores and paperwork should go, he’d gladly do it.
whatever it takes to make sure that he never forgets a single detail about you.
Sunita’s descriptors of Leo and Donnie when she meets them in their granny getup is so funny because Donnie’s the one who pushes the grandma disguise and yet-
Sunita, seeing Granny!Leo: Aw, what a cute old lady
Sunita, seeing Granny!Donnie: A flying turtle in an old purple dress
If I was Donnie I’d be so offended by that, Hortense deserves better 😔
