hii, i wanted to ask, do you prefer top chuuya/bottom dazai or top dazai/bottom chuuya? ^^
I don’t personally enjoy picking one or the other. Part of what drew me to skk’s dynamic in the first place was their back and forth/push and pull dynamic—I still love the dungeon scene so much because of how perfectly it encapsulates that, it just keeps shifting the power dynamic between the two of them back and forth as it progresses! It’s so fun!!
(Rambling under the cut because I got carried away writing about them)
Cause on the first watch of the dungeon scene, with no context for their relationship, Chuuya shows up, and it’s the first time we really see Dazai have that “oh no not HIM” reaction to anyone, prior to that in the show he hasn’t ever been nearly that perturbed—and Chuuya is acting very confident.
But then Dazai immediately starts making fun of him, undermines some of that tension and makes it clear they know each other well, especially when Chuuya also starts poking back. Then it’s really made clear they know each other well when Chuuya says he knows Dazai is plotting something. And also reveals that they were partners!
Then we have Chuuya freeing him, which raises Chuuya’s perceived power level because he just broke a damn chain with his foot—but then Dazai reveals he had already broken out of the handcuffs which is the first time we’ve seen him do that, and then they actually start fighting and Dazai gets the first hit in but then Chuuya hits back and is obviously way physically stronger(even without his ability!).
But Dazai guarded against it in time because he knows Chuuya’s attack patterns well! But then Chuuya reveals he’s fast enough for that not to matter! And then whips out a knife! But then Dazai has his whole “haha if you kill me I actually win and ruin your life lmao” speech!
And then the deescalation part is just as fun, once they stop fighting and are just bickering. And the part in the manga where Dazai genuinely laughs at their in-joke? So good. First time we’ve seen Dazai laugh that hard.
The whole scene is such a good introduction to their dynamic—and all that just continues each subsequent time Chuuya shows up, and especially gets demonstrated in the light novels! Those introduce the other aspects of them as well, where Dazai can’t always predict Chuuya(especially when they first met, in Fifteen) and how Dazai lets Chuuya choose for himself when it comes to finding out if he’s human or not, and all of Chuuya’s many many punishments he has for Dazai of differing levels of severity—they’re so abnormal about each other!
Oh and can’t forget the Chuuya-shoots-Dazai-in-the-head-but-stops-the-bullet-just-before-it-hits-him, aka extremely unhinged trust exercise that Dazai just casually reveals they’ve done in the past. And Asagiri saying that Dazai had no guarantee that Chuuya wasn’t actually a vampire, and just believed he was too powerful to get got? More unhinged trust! I love themmmm they’re so freaking weird(affectionate)
…Anyway I got a bit distracted from the original point, but TLDR: neither/both! To me they are metaphorically(and sometimes not so metaphorically) in a constant state of rolling over!

I love sokoukou, but idk if I could ever see them in a relationship. Even if dazai stayed. Even if chuuya left as well. They aren’t lovers. It’s worse.
They are codependent. They are obsessed with each other. But they will never get their shit together enough to date properly. They definitely kissed at least once and now they both regret it for entirely different reasons. They have each other’s backs. They throw each other under the bus at any opportunity.
Idk if dazai even has romantic feelings for chuuya. I think he’s just fascinated by him. He connected with chuuya and isn’t able to sever the bond without destroying a part of himself in the process.
I love the concept of aromantic dazai. It makes him feel even more disconnected from everyone else. He knows that what he feels for chuuya is different from all his other relationships, but it doesn’t match the description of love at all. Everybody thinks it’s off putting and weird. But he cannot deny that it is special. Which is why he just can’t stay away.
Chuuya definitely has a crush. At least he used to. And he hates it. He will never admit it under any circumstances. He is aware that dazai doesn’t. They have something weirder going on. Whatever it is, it will never go away.
They aren’t lovers. Their situationship crashed and burned. But they are partners. Double black. A set.
They know each other like no one else does and consider the other a giant paradox. They simultaneously work out beautifully and not at all. It’s breathtakingly beautiful and endlessly destructive.
They save each other from certain death just to turn around and strike each other where it hurts the most. They are killing each other. They aren’t able to be apart.
The way that they fit each other into their lives cannot be undone. For better or worse.
Bottom Dazai with a smart chuuya is such a delicious flavour
Or smart power bottom chuuya.
Or any chuuya where he is portrayed as intelligent, because c'mon, their has to be some aspects or areas where he is smarter than dazai.
I mean, take Ranpo for example. He is a genius. But so are Dazai and Fyodor. But his "kind" of genius isn't the same as Dazai and Fyodor, which is more on the manipulative side. Infact, he said so himself.
If we follow the same logic, Chuuya is also extraordinarily smart in his own right. Because, not just any person can keep up with Dazai or fool Fyodor and Dazai. (Let me remind you that Dazai didn't know Chuuya was acting during the mersault arc).
They are called double black because they are equals. Not because they are a duo of brain and brawn.
I like to think that their have been plenty of time in the past where Dazai was outsmarted by Chuuya but he never really dewell on those memories or let chuuya know that he was outsmarted because it hurts his pride lol
Another favourite headcannon of mine is that Chuuya is a genius when it comes to anything related to physics — especially when it comes to themes around gravity and any newton like shit. I mean, he manipulates gravity on a regular basis, he has got to be good at the math of it. Like, just a few quick calculation in his head and he knows when that bullet would hit him and exactly when to stop it from moving enough to show off while a physics professor in his 40s wouldn't be able to do that same calculation within seconds.
Idk, I just adore smart Chuuya.
And I absolutely love fics where they show that. An intelligent Chuuya. Even better if Dazai falls harder for his intelligence.
