    Summary

    It all starts with a single question from the last person he'd expect to be asking it.

    "Chuuya," Dazai sing-songs. "How did you know you wanted to be a guy?"

    All he can do is blink in shock.

    "Hah?"
    -
    Dazai struggles with finding herself over the course of a couple years. Chuuya, despite being transgender himself, remains entirely oblivious to his partner's desperate attempts at dropping hints.

    Summary

    The first time five-year-old Dazai saw Chuuya, he decided two things immediately:

    One, that the boy was small.
    Two, that he belonged to him.

    Dazai decided Chuuya was his before he even knew Chuuya’s name.

    Summary

    "Generally speaking," Dazai says, and he doesn't sound anything like the Dazai that Chuuya knows, "I can't imagine I'd go through the effort of faking my death when dying is both easier to achieve and more of a pleasant experience. Though it depends on the how and the why, of course."

    "Bastard, stop talking in circles and–"

    "Boss, huh?" Dazai says, and Chuuya breaks off. It sounds wrong, from Dazai, and Chuuya lets Dazai go. Dazai drops down to both knees, and then sits there, gazing past Chuuya and looking at the makeshift shrine on the imposing wooden desk. There's something dark in his gaze, and it's almost comforting. Almost, because it's familiar; it's a knife in the darkness that Chuuya has watched bring down hundreds of people.

    "What," Chuuya snaps. "Going to tell me you want the position back?"

    "Back," Dazai murmurs, drumming his fingers on his knees before he finally climbs back up to his feet. His hands go into his pockets, his posture relaxed and easy, and none of it makes any sense. "Chuuya, was I really?"

    Summary

    This was far from the first time Dazai spent time in a mental institution. The inpatient facility was more like a second home at this point. He wasn't expecting anything different from usual when he was admitted yet again. But a short redhead with anger issues had the potential to save Dazai from this monotonous torture.

    Summary

    Dazai suddenly looked at him, his tone shifting. “Why are you alive?”
    “What kind of question is that?” Fyodor was quick to mutter. “I simply woke up here. I feel rather foggy, was I drugged?”
    Silence settled over them. Fyodor was left to just stare at their faces - he could easily recognise the emotion on each of them, but not the reason behind them. There was a particular resentment in Dazai’s eyes that he didn’t like. Weren’t they-
    .
    ?
    What were they?'

    AKA: after Fukuchi stabs himself, hoping to end everything, a singularity wipes both of their memories. Fukuchi completely, while Fyodor remembers his life up until about thirty years ago. There are few things (or a person, rather) that have survived the memory loss.
    A deal is made for Fyodor to help out the Agency. Will he help? Will he murder everyone? Will he finally turn a new leaf? Who knows.
