I'm really interested in Double Dazai Nightmare wip~ Can you tell about it a bit?

@the-port-mafia

(Referring to this post) OH BOY

An 18 year old executive of the Port Mafia Dazai suddenly appears at the Agency. No one knows how or why, considering their Dazai is right there, and he more than anyone insists that they can't let this guy just roam around.

And yeah, now there's two Dazais at the Agency office, and one of them has to be monitored at all times. And of course who else would be at Dazai babysitting job but Atsushi.

And so we have Mafia Dazai, trying to gather information about this world and time, observing his other self and trying to understand what would make him work in some Detective Agency.

We have Atsushi, who treats Mafia Dazai more like a person and not some bomb who's about to go off at any second, and Mafia Dazai instantly clocks on that he has a very obvious crush on older Dazai. Which he isn't above exploiting.

And we have current Dazai, who, faced with his past self, is very unhappy that everyone else gets to see him like this. And he only gets more and more unhappy when that brat is trying to flirt with Atsushi, but only because he knows he wants to use him. Not because he's jealous and was planning on ignoring his feelings forever and now someone else is hitting on Atsushi and its not just anyone else its literally HIM and he isn't supposed to be here go bother your own Atsushi-

So yeah its called 'nightmare' because usually my writing isn't all that angsty, but in this one literally everyone is uncertain and conflicted of their feelings and its one huge mess and I feel like even my tendencies to make things more silly won't save these boys from emotional damage

Also for this one I even stated doodling potential covers but sure I like these lol

#ask v #bsd #bungou stray dogs #dazatsu #dazushi #dazai x atsushi #atsushi x dazai #it may also be a two part story... but its too early to talk about that haha #i havent even finished 'write my report' yet after THAT we talk

hello :) could you maybe explain a little bit how dan wootton blackmailed louis?

ugh sorry for taking a while to get to this. The problem is I feel like the only two ways to answer this are by spending a week and a half of full time labor sifting through old posts and evidence to get every detail right and lay out an airtight case, or to halfass something very serious, and so I felt a little stuck. So since I can't seem to find a good halfway point, apologies but here is the half assed version, if you want to get into it more I invite you to do your own deep dive or talk to other people, but here's how I remember things. Louis has almost never on video explicitly said things about Larry not being real and/or anything negative about fans and their theories (mostly the opposite), up until the last couple years when he obviously decided to make a major change he didn't talk about Freddie much at all let alone saying he was his kid, honestly not that much about Eleanor even; except for in two major interviews with Dan Wootton, each of which lined up with a serious traumatic Tomlinson family event that they managed to keep out of the tabloids until the very end (Jay's illness and Fizzy's struggles with substance abuse). After the fact of those events a lot of small things that didn't make sense at the time came together to look very much like Louis traded those interviews (and those answers) for having his family's private matters kept private. Story trading of this kind is a publicly known real thing that happens, and there were various clues that suggested he was being leaned on about those stories to lend legitimacy to the idea that it was something that happened in these cases. Given what we know about Dan Wootton and how he operates even before the recent flood of information and even more now, I think it's more than likely that he has been holding the threat of outing Louis (as he has done to many other public figures) over his head for over a decade, and has used his family's tragic struggles to get Louis to dance like a fucking puppet for him and I will REJOICE at his downfall when it comes whether it is now or 20 years from now... because someday it will, he has made too many enemies to stay above it forever

#I did start to try to deep dive before I realized it was too much #but I was reminded that when Louis was doing txf as a judge while fizzy was struggling #many people thought he had been pressured somehow into it; later when we knew what had been going on people were like #oh maybe he just wanted to be close to home to deal with fizzy stuff or somethng #but also: keeping fizzy stuff quiet would potentially be the info we didn't have at that time that could answer that q too of what they use #given the DW🤝simon jones🤝simon cowell cursed connections #(for the newbies: simon jones aka DWs bestie is Louis' publicist for no apparent reason even now long after he has gotten free of the rest #of the modest/syco/simon cowell shitshow) #anyway another example of story trading in our fandom is zayn's baby sister's teen pregnancy #which was known to the fandom early on but kept super quiet by respectful fans- during this time Z did some unprecedented actual interviews #for no obvious reason #and then iirc pretty much the day she turned 17 a very lowkey article reported on her marrying her bf and mentioning a pregnancy #but as if it was recent not like 7 months along #and even when she gave birth soon after it was all kind of... glossed over and around and not reported until a little later #blah blah blah #I felt like it was weird to talk about this for some reason but when I thought about it #I don't know if it matters. Like maybe talking about him not being a dad and being gay or whatever at all is bad #but assuming we're doing that anyway. why not talk about the struggles around that #and the creeps holding it over his head #dan wootton

Re-reading stuff in RE lore and I forgot there was a whole snippet of Wesker being frustrated that Annette didn't seem to notice or care that William's mental health was going downhill, and he even says he pities Sherry for having to be stuck with neglectful parents... lord

#willsker #albert wesker #in wesker's report and his notes its so interesting to see how he expresses care #ever think about how the word 'partner' has such a significant meaning in early RE games #it describes a deep and trusting relationship either platonic or romantic #ie jill and chris #wesker only has ever referred to william as his partner...

just saw the boy and the heron last night and my two main thoughts are:

1. we are going to lose so much as an audience when Miyazaki dies. there’s just distinct things in his films that you can tell are lifelong interests; and clearly he knows this too, because (without spoilers) the question of legacy seems to be on his mind. one thing that interests me about Miyazaki is like, how he’s showing us what storytelling looks like when you’re older. the way the story you want to tell gets refined over and over again. may we all be granted with the age and perspective to do the singular story inside of us justice. 🙏🏽🌷

2. do not watch this movie if you have a fear of birds‼️‼️

#LMAO im being so serious about the bird thing!!!! #also i can see why early reports called this movie unsettling and found it hard to describe

UK Parliament's report on Early Childhood - “Support for childcare and the early years” talks about the work The Princess of Wales has done in the sector over the years.

“The Princess of Wales has done important work to raise the profile of the Early Years through her Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood. Its 2020 report ‘State of the Nation: Understanding Public Attitudes to the Early Years’ stressed the importance of elevating the importance of the early years period in the public consciousness.“

why does every article reporting on idf war crimes go "hamas, who started the war on october 7th with their brutal terrorist attack slaughtering innocent israeli civilians, has condemned the idf's use of-"? like, nearly verbatim every single time. we know about october 7th. we know by now. half the time, hamas isnt even relevant but they gotta find some way to sow doubt and numb any potential compassion responses. will you get fired if you show sympathy for murdered palestinian civilians without first adding a disclaimer saying its all their fault for being born in gaza? if you call "palestinians under 18" children? if you use the words "murdered" or "brutal" or "massacre" for acts that didnt occur on october 7th? if you call a spade a spade? why are israeli reports front page news without proper fact-checking but palestinian reporting is always "allegedly" even when theres video evidence? why does the idf not get the hamas treatment of reminding everyone that theyre biased before treating their words as law, like they havent been caught bold-faced lying again and again?

#soooooo fucking infuriating #'palestinians are allegedly starving but thats what hamas (who are savage terrorists in case you forgot) said as well so who knows?' #'idf soldiers are allegedly bragging about and showing pictures and videos of their war crimes on social media but #its not in english so we may never know what theyre saying. palestinian ''civilians'' are translating so whatever they say must be wrong' #'in other news. heres what ''doctors'' are referring to as a ''calendar'' but is written in arabic (terrorist language) so the idf must be #telling the truth when they say its proof they are all evil and must in some nebulous way suddenly stop living' #to be fair. the 'secret hamas names list disguised as calendar but REALLY about oct 7' shit was the target of skepticism quite early on #but it really does show how often the idf lies to justify obvious war crimes #maybe they should provide verified evidence or even just be given a bias disclaimer before printing their claims as fact??? #every single fucking death toll is phrased as 'hamas-run ministry of health reports death toll of x' like? #yeah? thats their fucking government? what else do you expect? #you do understand that the healthcare portion of their government is probably more reputable #than what the phrasing of those headlines are obviously trying to imply? #i understand that bias is still possible there but its not armed combatants making shit up #its doctors who receive govt paychecks doing their best to identify the disfigured bodies not buried under rubble #youre not slick with that wording

The press went NUTS when they found out the Dick was working as a pole dancer. It was big news, and everyone wanted to know how Bruce Wayne felt about his Baby Boy working as a stripper. B was… well, he was ticked. Not at Dick, no, he was just proud of him for getting a well paying job in an area he enjoyed. No, B’s fury sat squarely on the press. Papers that had gleefully printed sexual photos and articles about him were now aghast about Dick.

See, B’s whole “playboy” cover wasn’t originally exactly Bruce’s idea. He remembered vividly as a teenager the perceived humiliation of these adults sexualizing every little thing he did and of the constant anxiety of trying and failing to control his image; the way they seemed to pounce on any tiny flaw in his appearance or behavior and the paranoia that developed after the first of many photos of him was published of him just… going about his day, paired with a big red headline blasting him for daring to be a teenager. He remembered being terrified of being seen wearing a swimsuit and refusing to eat in public. So eventually, him leaning into this sexualization as a cover story wasn’t so much because he liked it, but because he knew how eagerly everyone would eat it up.

Now here was Dick, making an informed, consensual choice about how he wanted to be perceived, and they wanted to vilify him for it. So yes, B may have flew off the handles a bit, and yes, it probably wasn’t the best move to punch a reporter, but he had fought Hell to protect his kids from what he had gone through, and that sure as fuck wasn’t going to change any time soon.

#batman #bruce wayne #dick grayson #B wears a shirt that says “sex work is real work” for a month and a half over this #thinking about child stars and the shit they go through #the press learned early on that messing with any of the Wayne children was a good way to be sued into oblivion #B is tired #he just wants to be left alone #and maybe the whole “billionaire playboy” shtick is a way to try and reclaim his public perception but that's between him and his therapist #he only even actively tried to maintain it for like a year before he realized that it didn't matter what he did #there is a reason there are so many pictures of the Wayne kids flipping off the press #when they were in med school together Harley used to threaten reporters who tried to interview her with a baseball bat #Dent personally offered to do a whole lotta liable suits as soon as he passed the bar #on a lighter note #I do think Dick would legitimately enjoy pole dancing #and it's not like he's against running around in skimpy outfits #tw sexualization of minors #tw loss of autonomy #tw mentions of anxiety and possible EDs due to trauma

unhinged hannibal/bcs crossover bc i feel like lalo would absolutely eat a man if given the option and hannibal would be so torn between immediately killing him and accepting him into the gay murderer with younger grumpy boyfriend club

#lalo and nacho go to cuba after faking their deaths and a few years later meet this other weird couple who are also definitely on the run #nacho just assumes will and hannibal are like -normal- criminals and then will's like Yeah we've killed and eaten several ppl (it's a sex #thing don't worry about it) #hannibal and lalo fighting over the kitchen will and nacho trying on each other's clothes for fun (will fucks so hard and nacho is adorable #they somehow both look gayer #also of course foursome #i think hannibal is set in ~2010 so lalo and nacho are a bit older than in canon #also will and nacho are like the same age they're both born in the early 70s lmao oh shit hannibal and lalo are also the same age?? #idea for lachoweek...? #lacho #lalo salamanca #nacho varga #hannigram #hannibal lecter #will graham #hannibal would have so much fun psychoanalyzing them he'd let them live for a little while at least #nothing to see here just two men in their 50s enjoying the beach with their 40 yo trophy husbands don't worry about the missing #persons reports<3

#early reports suggest the break my soul situation may in fact have repeated but #we'll see in 30 minutes i guess #regardless #i think certain outlets may feel like they've given her/she's had enough recent acclaim to drop a hot take™️ this time around #if only for it being promoted the way it has and then putting post and m**** on it #which #to be honest #in the latter case at least

January 1985. On Earth-2, Clark Kent became a newspaper editor in the early 1950s, and soon picked up the "Don't call me 'chief'!" thing.

It's a good bit, although it's muddied by some arbitrary continuity choices: On Earth-2, Clark, Lois, and Jimmy spent their entire careers at the Daily Star, the paper from the earliest Superman comics stories, not at the Daily Planet. As revealed in the "Mr. and Mrs. Superman" story in THE SUPERMAN FAMILY #197, Perry White was a reporter for the Star, but he was never their editor (although he and Clark competed for the job when editor George Taylor announced his retirement), so the "Yes, chief?"/"Don't call me 'chief'!" gag is referencing something that never happened on Earth-2. This also means that while Earth-2 was supposed to be the home of the Golden Age Superman, a lot of Golden Age Superman stories couldn't have happened on Earth-2 unless you mentally substitute the Daily Star for the Daily Planet and George Taylor for Perry White.

#comics #america vs the justice society #roy thomas #rafael kayanan #alfredo alcala #bill collins #earth-2 #clark kent #jimmy olsen #daily star #justice society of america #jsa #the easier solution for the daily star-daily planet variance #would have been to just say clark and lois moved to a different paper early in their careers #as reporters often do #but the original goal was to have an easy reference point to distinguish the earth-1 and earth-2 supermen #so it worked in that regard

The following day, two of the Beatles were sitting in the Kardomah café. Their Wednesday-night Cavern residency was preceded this week by a lunchtime session, and John and Paul were still in the habit of staying in town on such days, idling away afternoons in “the KD.” This time they were chatting to one of John’s old mates from art school, who then said, “I believe Brian Epstein is managing you—which one of you does he fancy?” It was just a bit of lads’ banter, something that often came up behind Brian’s back, along with digs about him being Jewish. Nothing more would have been said about it if one of the two Beatles (or both) hadn’t then relayed the comment to Brian’s face. He was mortified. It was a stain on his character; it was combustible, in view of homosexual acts being illegal; and, because he was still denying this side of his life to the Beatles, it was a direct challenge for him to respond. Forty-eight hours later, Brian turned the matter over to his lawyer; and seven days after passing the comment, John’s friend from art school was dumped deep in it.

We have been consulted by Mr. Brian Epstein who instructs us that on the February 21st last in the Kardomah Café, Church Street, Liverpool, you uttered a certain highly malicious and defamatory statement concerning him to two members of the Beatles. We are instructed that in the course of a conversation you said, “I believe Brian Epstein is managing you. Which one of you does he fancy?” The unwarranted innuendo contained in that remark is perfectly clear and is one to which our client takes the gravest possible exception and the damaging nature of which has caused him considerable anxiety and distress. He is not prepared to tolerate the utterance of such remarks by you and we accordingly have to require that we receive by return your written apology together with an undertaking that this or similar remarks will not be made by you in the future.

The apology and undertaking arrived by return of post and that was the end of the matter—but it was another hard and damaging episode for Brian.
