toska | aya & dazai & chuuya | single parent dazai
this was inspired by the lovely @ziasann and our conversations on the tumblr ims!!
Chuuya’s alone. He sits propped up on pillows in the hospital bed, the blankets pooled around his waist, with the radio turned on to mask the silence and the beeping of the machines.
He’s fine. He’s a little sore, and very tired, but the doctors have examined him thoroughly and he’s absolutely fine. He lies on the bed listening as the nurses talk with Dazai about the baby — how to care for his cord, and when she should get her first feed — and after he’s signed papers and gotten a folder of instructions, Chuuya hears Dazai’s approach, with the baby in his arms.
He jumps off the bed and closes the door before Dazai can get there. “You know what we agreed on.” Chuuya says through it. “You said — We said we’d give her away. We can’t keep her. I won’t — She can’t —.”
“I know.”
“We didn’t discuss any names, but I — Her name’s Aya.”
Colourful. Beautiful.
She’d survived despite all the odds. His little nudger at first, and then later, his kicker.
“Okay.”
“Chuuya —”
Chuuya leans his forehead against the door. “You have to take her away. Please. You promised.”
Words that would cause him infinite shame later.
There’s a pause. Through the flimsy wooden door Chuuya can hear rustles of clothing a tiny faint grunt. Chuuya spreads his hand on the door, as if he could reach through it, through the few inches, to take back all his words, to touch Dazai and Aya both.
Dazai walks away. Chuuya listens to him gathering his things in total silence. Chuuya imagines Dazai wrapping their baby up warm in the clothes that they’d bought. And then his footsteps get further and further away until Chuuya can’t hear anything at all.
Chuuya closes his eyes. He feels as if he’s barely opened them today. He thinks of those small sounds, through the door. He thinks f the small head, with its downy red hair — he knows without looking that it’s red — nestled in the crook of her father’s arm. The unfurled mouth, the squashed red cheeks, the toothless gums. The scent of her skin, still pungent from the amniotic fluids. His arms ache from not holding her. His baby. Their baby.
“You deserve better parents, Aya,” Chuuya whispers, and trails a hand over his bandaged stomach.
I am inspired to continue the fic I started on
An Obvious Answer
@3rdgymbros remember the anon who promised you she’d make you a ficlet of single dad Dazai? (Idk if you remember her) I am that bitch. I’m sorry I couldn’t finish it. So I’m going to leave this to you, you can do whatever you want with it. I know this iong due. I love you.
Oh and btw, this is my first attempt on a skk drabble before my Death in the Hands of God. I couldn’t finish this one.
I was wondering if I should create an Ao3 account soon.
***
A mother’s hands were always soft and light.
Her arms made to carry the bundle of joy with tenderness and love.
Her heart big enough to warm and protect as the child grows up.
However, Chuuya was far from what a mother should be to her child.
His fingers scarred from the many necks he strangled life out from.
His shoulders burdened by the weight of Corruption ready to embrace his sanity at call.
His heart -if there is one, for people like him, - does not warm, his heart scalded everything around him in fiery destruction leaving nothing but ashes in its wake.
There was simply no space for his and Dazai’s offspring in their world of madness and blood.
Chuuya burned the two-lined pregnancy tests before anyone finds evidence.
***
Chuuya wondered, setting his third glass of Chardonnay down on the table, which method first would kill the baby inside. Alcohol poisoning or miscarriage in the midst of a fight.
Dazai didn’t know, at best, shouldn’t know about the news. The Demon Prodigy of Port Mafia having a child was utterly unspeakable -even more unthinkable of. Chuuya will spare his partner the responsibility for this accident. He doubted Dazai would want to hear about it anyway.
He stood up from the couch of his living room, taking away his wine and glass. He entered the kitchen, discarding the glass on the sink. Another dish growing with the pile of red-stained chalices. He levitated towards the highest shelf, stashing one of his favorite drinks beside his untouched collection.
He supposed he can’t have the doctor sniffing on him as he makes his first visit among the counted ones. The sooner the baby is out, the better he can perform on his job.
***
“You’ve been restless lately, Chuuya.”
Of course, his bastard of a partner lounged at his house like it was normal. Chuuya clenched the paper bag of medicines he bought from the drugstore.
“What are you doing here? He asked, feeling nauseous as he stands. His peaceful day-off was once again, trashed by the bandages in human form who approached him.
“Going off on solo missions, avoiding encounters…” Dazai trailed as he neared him. In a second, Chuuya was by the wall with Dazai hovering above him. The bag fell from his hand but Dazai paid no attention to its spilled contents. His look imminent on Chuuya only. As much as Chuuya was thankful for Dazai not glancing down, their close proximity bidded his stomach unwell.
“Not to mention, you wouldn’t let yourself have an opening like this.” Dazai assessed.
How Chuuya also wanted to have tables turned back too, with Dazai’s wrists supposedly locked on the wall. Not like this, where Chuuya noticed their height difference too much and the fact he was too tired from the trip on the doctor to even get out of his partner’s grasp.
The simmering ache on his digestive lurched tenfold. His turquoise eyes widen as he covers his mouth. He scrambled away from Dazai with whatever strength he had and sprinted towards the bathroom.
Chuuya clutched hard the rim of the toilet as he pukes ungracefully. The unsettling pain in his stomach eased with every retch. He panted ceaseless as the deed finished, fingers crawling to flush the vomit. The figure by the doorframe of his comfort room waited for Chuuya to regain his bearings before querying.
“How…many weeks?”
Chuuya turned to Dazai, whose right hand gripped on the bottle of pills he had bought earlier.
Dazai shouldn’t know but now he does, because he came at the worst time of the wrong day.
“…Twelve,” Chuuya continued, albeit the hesitation. “The child won’t live, don’t worry.”
“Hence, these meds in preparation for abortion?” There was an edge to Dazai’s voice Chuuya was shocked for. He gazed at the single red eye which was daringly scrutinizing every inch of his body. Dazai had always been unreadable for him, there was no need for him to fuss over this matter.
“The operation will be on the week after next.” Chuuya walked out of the bath, passing by Dazai who had an adorned uptight expression.
“Why?”
The one word flared up what energy remained from the exhausting day Chuuya had. He spun to face Dazai who had followed him into his bedroom. His hands balled into fists at his side, mustering the coherence to explain. Because shouldn’t the answer be obvious to him already?
“The child won’t survive, Dazai, you of all people should know that.”
“So you decided to kill the child on your own?” He can certainly sense Dazai’s blatant accusation on him, which was so unfair, because how dare he-
“We’ve murdered children before, innocent ones who had good families! Why is this any different?!” Chuuya’s eyes stung but no, he was not weak, he won’t cry in front of this douchebag who knocked him up.
Dazai firmly placed his hands atop Chuuya’s shoulders. That’s the only time he noted of how badly he was shaking.
“Because this child is ours, Chuuya.” Dazai murmured, Chuuya hastily pushed Dazai off at the suggestion.
“I-We can’t do this, we’re not meant to be parents. We’re murderers. We take lives, we do not preserve them.” Chuuya argued and oh, he was confused. Why was Dazai being like this? Why the interest on their child? This would be easier if Dazai just agreed with him, but the mackerel had every opportunity to fight against him.
“And so? I know someone who orphaned five children and a member of the Mafia.” Dazai reiterated. Chuuya squinted his eyes and groaned in frustration.
“You want to raise this child with a suicidal maniac and a weapon of destruction as its parents?!”
“We can give the child up for adoption!”
“NO!”
And with that response, Chuuya watched as Dazai’s red eye stared at him once more. There was something in his scrutiny akin to connecting stars in a constellation and with every passing silence, Chuuya dreaded. Dazai sees everything, it’s only a matter of time before his partner discovers-
“There’s more to this pregnancy you’re not telling me.”
***
An Obvious Answer (The Promise)
Hey, @3rdgymbros, this one’s for you. I have a plan, let’s talk about it ne?
This drabble happens right after the first single parent Dazai drabble I posted. More like this was what should happen in the next scene. And since lovely Sam wrote the birthgiving part, this happens before that.
Continuation of An Obvious Answer…
The Promise
His other self was an anomaly sort of creature he never dared to encounter. After the first and foremost awakening of Corruption, Port Mafia never looked at him ever the same. Only Dazai was brave and heartless enough to count the numbers of lives he mercilessly snatched from their enemies and own kind as well. A killing machine…
When Dazai asked, no, rather begged to stay with him and their baby, Chuuya was puzzled. There was a strange light filling in Dazai’s single eye every time Chuuya stares at it. Despite the burden of carrying a life in his womb, he felt somewhat easier with Dazai’s presence.
It has been weeks since his partner discovered the child and convinced him to keep it. It has also been weeks since relaxation replaced his constant cautiousness and wariness. Maybe there was hope after all…for their child to live in this world untainted.
The last thing Chuuya remembered was how Dazai placed his ear above his womb, waiting for the baby to react. (“Stupid mackerel, do you think a three month old would kick?” “The first time we met you already punched me!”)
So why…
..Why were they here again?
The whispers…the taunts…Corruption!
Chuuya, tell me, can you raise the child?
Red and black surrounded him everywhere, Chuuya cannot even grasp his own body. He was losing himself to an unknown entity who have known him ever since he was born.
How pathetic. Your hands are filthy from the blood, you can’t save lives.
His throat itched to scream but only hollow sounds came out. In front of him was a precious baby with scarlet hair sleeping with a smile. Like sleeping beauty. Chuuya’s heart immediately leapt at the sight, the desire to protect and cherish the child overflowing him in waves.
Your daughter…my next vessel…another god of destruction will be born!
Familiar tendrils of red tattooed the porcelain skin of the infant. Chuuya thrashed, reaching out for his consciousness and vitality only to find it empty. He cannot control anything, everything was slipping away from his fingertips. Even this child who provided a ray of sunshine in his partner’s dreary gaze will be gone and Chuuya knows it.
“- CHUUYA!”
Chuuya heaved deep breaths as he struggled to sit up. The room was spinning in his head and Dazai’s grip on his shoulder stung. A few more inhales and exhales, Chuuya regained his bearings and scanned the situation before him. All the pillows and blankets were thrown as if a dog jumped and scavenged for bones. He had to release the sheets he was clutching too hard. Dazai patiently waited for him to speak and as he met his concerned eyes, the dam he forcefully locked in finally loosened.
Tears one by one escaped from his eyelids, until it streamed downpour, and all the cries he cannot shout in that nightmare emerged from within. Dazai pulled him close and held him, his fingers drawing circles upon his back. He tried his best to believe Dazai’s whispers but how could he? When he had lived with that monstrous part of himself for so many years.
“I’m here, I’m sorry, I should have held you closer…and tighter.” Chuuya shook his head and pushed Dazai a bit to tell the thoughts he’d been meaning to tell at his face.
“Corruption wanted to take over her. I want a normal life for her, away from this madness, away from everything.”
“Chuuya, I’ll do everything in my power to keep our child.” Dazai wiped the tears on his cheeks with his thumb. At that moment, Chuuya solemnly swore he had never loved somebody as hard as this before.
“Promise me, Dazai,” Chuuya pleaded, “Give her to someone who can protect her from this world we live in.”
“I promise.”
Chuuya never expected he’d slumber peacefully again but after the conversation, he slept like the baby growing inside him.

Langa seeing Reki as a skater
Director Utsumi Hiroko Interview
Q: What did you keep in mind while creating episode 7 as Reki’s mood gradually darkened?
Since it’s summer, it started with really bright colors. It starts with a bright clear summer sky and as Reki’s mood drops it becomes more and more cloudy and the colors become dimmer. Since we wanted to make it rain in the final scene we didn’t want it to rain at all in the episodes before it. In the scene where they’re under the overpass, Reki is in the shadows and Langa is in the light. We wanted to naturally create a boundary between the two and not just rely on their words and expressions but use the whole screen to show Reki’s emotions.
Q: Was that overpass also a place you found while location hunting?
There’s no star but it’s a real location. So the layout of light and shadow was from the location, not something we made up. When Langa finishes the jump he’s out from under the overpass so he naturally goes out into the light but since Reki can’t reach it he can’t leave the shadow either. I really like that scene since it uses the light and shadow of the actual location.
Q: How did you show Langa’s expressions?
Langa’s facial muscles are pretty much dead so he’s expressionless… (lol). But as he spends time with Reki they slowly loosen up so I think they naturally get pulled out of him. We made them based on him being expressionless as the standard. But Langa unexpectedly ended up showing more facial expressions than we originally assumed and he kept showing expressions that weren’t on the character design sheets so Langa’s expressions always troubled me (Painful laugh).
Q: Langa complimented Reki in episode 10, but did Langa realize that Reki had an inferiority complex?
He’s pretty slow so I don’t think he realized. For Langa, I think this was the first time he’d ever fought with a friend who was important to him. Since he didn’t know what to do, he asked his mother since she was the only person he could go to for advice, and since she told him “Being honest about your feelings is best,"that was just him putting her advice into action. He didn’t think he had to do it "for Reki,” he just wanted to express his own feelings.
Q: And I think those feelings reached Reki.
Reki realized that Langa was the only one who had seen him as a skater the whole time, from the very beginning, and I think that’s what made Reki the happiest.

“\🌴描き起こしイラスト公開🌊/ 『SK∞ エスケーエイト』×アトフェス初コラボ! かりゆしウェアを着用した総勢8名の描き起こしイラストを公開✨ 今の時期にぴったりな夏らしいイラストです🛹☀️ ▼グッズ購入はこちら https://t.co/IKQ31ZI4xO #sk_8
They announced new character goods today and there's a lot of Okinawan references in it so I thought I'd share what I noticed!
Everyone is wearing hibiscus flowers, which are very common in Okinawa!
Reki is holding Chinsuko cookies which are a well known traditional cookie from Okinawa. He also has an Okinawan Shisa with him.
Langa has pineapple. Pineapples are a big agricultural product in Okinawa. They even have a whole theme park dedicated to them. He also has a shisa. Shisa do usually come in pairs.
Miya has a whale shark with him. The aquarium in Okinawa is famous for having a large whale shark exhibit. He is also holding a shikuwasa which are commonly grown in Okinawa. They're a citrus fruit kind of similar to a lime.
Shadow is eating Sugar cane. Sugar cane is also a common agricultural product in Okinawa.
Cherry is holding a hanagasa, which is a flower hat from traditional ryuukyuuan clothing. And it looks like he's holding a bag of andagi, which are Okinawan donuts!
Joe is drinking awamori which is a sake famous in Okinawa.
ADAM is holding a sanshin which is a traditional instrument in Okinawa, similar to a shamisen, but it is smaller and made with snakeskin. He also has a sangwa tied to his hip. They are a tradition in Okinawa to ward off bad spirits.
Tadashi is holding Okinawa soba. He also has a sangwa tied to his hip.
Reminding people about okinawa things.
Things listed in the event drama that aren't in this post:
Goya
Among summer vegetables, this bumpy, warty-skinned vegetable is a relative newcomer. In the past few years, however, goy
Gurukun
English: Banana Fish. Japanese: Takasago also locally known in Hogan as Gurukun. Geek Speak: Caesio diagramma. This is a brightly multi-colo
Rafute
So juicy and tender, this classic Okinawan Braised Pork Belly dish called Rafute (ラフテー) is slow-cooked in Awamori (Okinawa distilled liquor)
Color Boards pt 1
Reki's boards
shows the curve of the board, how the wheels look when they're moving vs when they're still, lots of scratches.
The second picture is the board from the first ep that gets destroyed. It says bits fall off of it when he skates with it.
Langa's boards
The wheels are kinda see through.
Miya and Shadow's boards
Miya's deck is flat.
Shadow's has a long tail and a short nose.
