dazai’s texts to chuuya are a lot of very random things like telling him to get something for him, blurry pictures of himself, complaints about work, complaints about life in general, and chuuya rarely actually responds because why should he (though he does read the texts, and dazai sees and knows and thrives in the attention),,
but when chuuya’s drunk, chuuya’s the one sending nonsensical texts that are occasionally asking for his location, fifty texts under half a minute about how he hates dazai (or that dazai should die), etc.—
and then, dazai’s favorite, not that he’d admit it: sometimes chuuya sends pictures of himself, and not the stupid, low-effort, blurry ones dazai sends; okay, they’re usually blurry, but, like, high-quality blurry because his phone camera is perfect. ugh. oh, and they’re probably low-effort too, but— but not really. since somehow they’re always so pretty. of course, chuuya always immensely regrets sending them once he’s sober again, always threatens dazai to delete it from his side or whatever, threatens to take his phone, but dazai can’t, really, because chuuya’s beautiful and he hates it so much, hates it enough so that he’s printing the pictures out and keeping them in a folder full of chuuya dating back from when they were, maybe, sixteen or so, one of the few things he’d taken with him from the mafia, and he keeps them safely tucked away PURELYFORBLACKMAILPURPOSES he doesn’t actually look at them, he just—
okay maybe he does, but that’s beside the point. the point is that chuuya is also stupid and also sends stupid texts and pictures and dazai doesn’t respond to be petty (…but he does read them), and chuuya can’t call dazai a dumbass for his own texts (which are sent when he’s completely sober) when chuuya also sends stupid texts (when he’s really drunk)
… yeah
