    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?"

    In which Dazai of the Beast light novel the Dazai of canon swap places and have to solve some mysteries to return home. Or try to, at least.

    Summary

    “Welcome to Yokohama, the paradise for the criminal, the gifted and the undead.
    Enjoy your stay… if you survive.”

     

    Nakahara Chuuya is the new human blood bag for the boss of the Port Mafia.
    Let’s be clear: the contract pays well, but he hates it.

    Dazai Osamu is undead, unnerving, and way too smug for Chuuya’s thin patience.
    Too bad he is also annoyingly handsome.
    He’s just job, until he’s not.

    [Or: a Beast AU with a sprinkle of Vampires]

    Summary


    Dazai "Ouji" Osamu is the most popular idol of his generation.

    People adore him, critics worship him.
    He has the whole world dancing in the palm of his hand.
    When he steps into an underground bar in Yokohama, on a summer night like any other, he is looking for a muse, a fake boyfriend and a reason for living.

    Nakahara Chuuya just wanted a glass of wine and a one-night stand.

    (Or: the “I slept with a stranger and he turned out to be my little sister’s favorite singer” AU where two idiots catch very real feelings through a fake dating contract. Art in notes.)

    Summary

    "When we're older, I'm going to marry 'Samu. I promise. I swear."

    If someone had told Dazai he would be fake dating the sister of one Nakahara Chuuya - his childhood best friend, current housemate and first love - he would have called them crazy. There's just no way.
    Alas, that’s exactly what he’s doing.

    Or: Chuuya's unofficial guide on how to stay (almost) sane when your childhood crush is dating your sister.
