Breaking the Fourth Wall!

“JUST MARRIED,” Fernando, seated, and his husband, both members of Los Angeles’ Blue Max Motorcycle Club, get pulled over as they leave their wedding ceremony, December 1969. Photo c/o @onearchives. In the mid-twentieth century, the Blue Max Motorcycle Club, along with many other gay motorcycle clubs, provided an alternative to gay bars, which were constantly at risk of police raids and harassment. #lgbthistory #lgbtherstory #lgbttheirstory #lgbtpride #queerhistorymatters #haveprideinhistory (at Los Angeles, California)

fun fact: motorcycle clubs in the U.S. were founded and run largely by gay men who missed the homosocial camaraderie of being in the U.S. military during WWII. the lifestyle and aesthetics of those motorcycle clubs gave rise to many of the stereotypical/classic gay “looks” (leather, chaps, etc) and indeed to the gay leather scene itself (both the gay male leather/biker scene and the lesbian/dykes on bikes leather/biker scene)

Just to add to this - the classic “metal look” that heavy metal rock came to be associated with (leather, studs, tight fitting clothes) was introduced by Rob Halford of Judas Priest, an openly gay man who says he was simply wearing the look from the gay leather subculture on stage, and people started imitating him.

So the two “iconically heteo” fixtures of masculinity - biker gangs and heavy metal music, are both actually just gay culture that heteros unknowingly adopted.

Mori, sighing heavily: Dazai-kun, if Chuuya was to jump off a cliff, would you follow him?

Dazai: With all due respect, my mother gave birth to a leader, an innovator, a dumbass. I’d be the first off that fucking cliff.

Short comic, while I work on something bigger on the side. It is nevertheless a very important topic. A lot of seabirds die because they eat plastic. They feed their chicks with the waste. It’s really tragic.

Beasts

(Today’s Disney Week entry: Beauty and the Beast!)

309/365: Beasts

-

The room’s large, oak door creaks, as if it hasn’t been used for months. Atsushi jerks his hand away and freezes in place, eyes darting up and down the hall.

But nothing comes for him. No voices shout, no footsteps hurry in his direction. No one seems to have noticed at all.

Atsushi breathes a sigh of relief. Wrapping his cloak tighter around his shoulders, he steps forward again, pushing the door open only slightly further so that he can squeeze through.

His eyes grow wide immediately.

It appears to be a bedroom, but every piece of fabric and furniture in the room has been ravaged. Stuffing pours out of the pillows, the curtains and poles of the canopy bed have collapsed in on themselves, and the glass balcony doors sit shattered, bent and ripped from their hinges.

Atsushi’s gaze lifts to a portrait hanging askew on the wall. Deep gashes run through the canvas, obscuring its image, as if someone never wanted to look at it again.

But as Atsushi moves to lift the canvas, something else catches his eye. At the far end of the room, near the balcony, a space has been cleared for a small table.

Atop that table sits a single white rose in a glass case.

Did you know that after they switched to blind auditions, major symphony orchestras hired women between 30% to 55% more? Before bringing in “blind auditions” with a screen to conceal the the candidate, women in the top 5 major orchestras made up less than 5% of the musicians performing.

so I believe it was actually more complicated than that, in interesting ways. Because at first, when they did blind auditions, they were STILL hiring more men.

…Then they put down a carpet, so that high heels didn’t clack on the floor,  and BOOM women were suddenly getting hired.

The testers didn’t even know that’s what they were picking up on, which just goes to show how tiny of a cue it takes for misogyny to kick in.

The case of blind auditions for orchestras and how it dramatically changed the gender makeup of orchestras is a very illuminating example of gender bias, and an interesting possible way of countering it.

The Battle for Chuuya

Here’s a short Soukoku fic with hints of Fyoya for @karkey featuring jealous Dazai Osamu.

“Are you wooing me in Russian?” Chuuya asked, his eyes glinting with amusement as Fyodor Dostoevsky—the demon he was told to be wary of—flirted back at him with equal vigor.

He can’t remember how he found himself in this situation when his sole mission was to rescue the waste of bandage out of the prison. But here he was, flirting with an enemy and secretly enjoying the look of irritation painted on Dazai’s face.

“Would you perhaps want me to woo you in your own language, dorogoy?”

Chuuya gave a smile as he took a step towards Fyodor. The latter wrapped his arm around the ginger’s waist, pulling him closer to his chest. He can feel Dazai constantly sending him death glares, but it only fueled his actions.

“There’s no need for that, mon chéri,” Chuuya sweetly replied. Laughter was about to escape from his lips when suddenly, he was pulled away from the Russian’s grasp into another man’s arms.

He was sure he heard a growl behind his ear before realizing the tight grip on his arm. Dazai sent him one of those looks that said “I’m in the mood to shed some blood and you won’t be in my way,” which sent a shiver down his spine as his protest died down in his throat.

“He’s mine,” Dazai hissed while he continued to send death glares into Fyodor’s direction.

“I don’t think so. If krasavets here is actually taken, he wouldn’t be flirting back at me,” the Russian reasoned before winking at Chuuya, which earned him a chuckle.

“Why would he even like you? You don’t even take a bath.”

“Shouldn’t I be the one asking you that? You smell worse than a dumpster.”

“Chibi doesn’t like your hat.”

“And he doesn’t like your bandages.”

As much as Chuuya liked to see Dazai all worked up, he should probably start dragging him out of the prison before the guard noticed the fake surveillance he had installed in their system.

“I found him first which means that he is mine.”

“He is not yours anymore because I’m stealing him away.”

Okay, their fight had officially got out of hand and Chuuya would either stop them now or end up killing them due to the rage building up inside of him upon hearing those words.

Truthfully, Chuuya just wanted to see Dazai without his emotionless mask. And of course, it ended up with the brunet having another possessive streak due to a green monster known as jealousy gnawing inside of him after he had seen the ginger flirt with his greatest enemy.

“You know, I can hear both of you and I’m close to sending the two of you flying towards the wall,” Chuuya snapped, silencing the two idiots who then decided to continue their quarrel in the form of a glaring contest.

To end their silly game, the ginger decided to grab Dazai’s collar and pull him close for a chaste kiss. Chuuya could only sigh at the brunet’s reaction towards the kiss—he looked like he bagged gold in the Olympics.

“You better start walking out of this cell, you stupid Mackerel or I’m leaving you behind.”

Dazai quickly followed Chuuya’s footsteps, but not before looking back at the disheartened Fyodor with a smirk playing on his lips and saying “I win, asshole.”

When they were far enough from the prison, he pushed Chuuya towards the nearest wall and gave him an intense kiss with his tongue exploring the ginger’s cavern while his arms were wrapped possessively around his waist.

“Mine. You’re mine, Chuuya. Only mine.”

Chuuya groaned at Dazai’s words before the latter leaned down for another kiss. He couldn’t think properly with the way Dazai kissed him as if he was trying to drain every essence of his soul.

Once Dazai pulled away, Chuuya shoved him away from him as he tried to control his breathing. “What the fuck is wrong with you?”

“I don’t like sharing, Chuuya and you know that! I hate it when you flirt with others especially with my own enemy!”

“For fuck’s sake, I was just messing with you.”

The air suddenly grew cold as Dazai’s eyes flashed red while a smile that can make even the strongest man shiver in fear broke on his face. He took a step back, wary of the other because judging from the brunet’s expression, this day wouldn’t end well for him.

“Well, Chibi, it looks like I have to teach you some lessons.”

we all know pokemon was made by an autistic person but consider the idea that it was made for autistic people as well:

1. absolutely nothing in the entire game requires dexterity or quick reaction time. you can beat the game with no problems even if you have the reaction time of a shuckle

2. game mechanics based on categorization, things placed neatly into categories that are easy to memorize

3. there are multiplayer elements but the game itself? completely single player. no social interaction required to enjoy the hell out of this game

4. you are not only encouraged but expected to have empathy for and form an attachment to these virtual creatures that do not actually exist, which is very easy for an autistic person with hyperempathy to do

5. the whole point of the game is collecting things. autistics will understand this one

6. making eye contact with an npc is an act of aggression

Beneath the moonlight, he wanders the edge.

Another night, another sakazuki cup in hand, his tails brushing the surface of the lake, he watched as the ripples followed him, stirring the still cherry blossoms. A disturbance amidst peace. It was almost laughable, how effable emotions could be with simple motions. His mind a mess of memories and thoughts, the past and present clashing together till he could barely tell what is real and what’s not.

Raising the cup to his lips he took a sip, the liquid gliding across his palate before slipping down his throat, leaving a burning aftertaste.

Thinking of his current predicament, he couldn’t help but let loose a laugh, mocking himself for his stupidity. Of all things, how could he have ended up like this, in a drunken stupor with no one by his side, not even the slightest sight of death would accompany for the night.

Picking up his pace, he glanced at the lake, watching the reflection of the moon waver ever so slight, almost as if the gateway to the heavens were there should he take a dive. But no, that is not the ending he wishes for, nor was it something he wants.

His end was coming, he senses it. Millennia spent walking the earth and finally, freedom would soon be his.

But not yet.

Another Skk Au

  1. In an alternate universe where superheroes and villains exist, Dazai and Chuuya are roommates (oh my God they are roommates)
  2. The thing is, Dazai is a villain while Chuuya is a superhero. But neither of them know that as both keep on making excuses as to why they are out all the time or why they arrive late most of the time. They were dating too. (save them)

Before you continue: This is based on the Superhero/Villain prompt. It contains a bit of angst and Mpreg. If you are uncomfortable with those, please don’t proceed. If you are okay with it, please proceed at your own risk. 

  1. “Chuuya, I arrived home late because work demands overtime aaaallll the time, it’s so tiring!”
  2. “—Or you just went around flirting with any human breathing.”
  3. “I’m hurt! I’m only dating Chuuya, no one else! How could you assume I’m flirting with others when there’s no one else as beautiful and as perfect as youuu~”
  4. Chuuya sighs and stands up to pick the first aid kit. “Idiot. C'mere,” He coaxes the brunet, who is desperately hiding his fresh wounds and bruises. “What kind of fucking pole did you run yourself into this time, huh?” Berates Chuuya, but Dazai just smiles because his boyfriend is already cleaning and tending to his wounds.
  5. While with Chuuya, it goes with the redhead arriving way past midnight expecting Dazai to be asleep, but he could only scowl exasperatedly at the brunet who stayed up waiting for him.
  6. “Why the fuck are you awake?” Chuuya asks, but there’s no real edge on his tired tone.
  7. “I was worried for Chuuya.” Dazai replies, already having the first aid kit beside him as he gestures for Chuuya to sit right next to him. “So, your boss overworked your group again? Seriously, Chuuya, you are so underpaid for that job.”
  8. Chuuya only glares at him and mumbles something about what would you know, I love what I do but complies anyway as Dazai quietly tends to his wounds.
  9. They go like that every night, or every other night if they’re lucky. Sometimes only Dazai is injured, sometimes it’s only Chuuya. Though most of the time they’re both taking care of/tending to each other’s wounds by leaning, stitching, and disinfecting while coming up with the best excuses they could think of, which are both far from believable anyway. Surprisingly, neither can notice that the other is their main nemesis and they were the cause of most of those wounds/bruises.
  10. They were terrible liars and ignorant idiots, but they trust and love each other even just with actions and not words.
  11. One day though, they were both badly injured in their fight, and both had come home with their masks gone and costumes ripped enough to recognize each other.
  12. Chuuya is beyond angry at Dazai, and at himself for not realizing it sooner.
  13. While Dazai’s gaze turns dark and cautious as they converse with barely concealed desire to continue their battle… The battle to explain to each other how they messed up like this.
  14. They were both furious… But not because they deceived each other.
  15. But because they unconsciously hurt each other in more ways than one.
  16. Tired, exhausted, confused and in pain, neither said a word as they went about their usual routine of taking care of each other’s body.
  17. After successfully looking more uncomfortably human, Chuuya and Dazai lock eyes and said the words they’ve been meaning to since they found out the truth.
  18. “I’m sorry for this, Osamu.”
  19. “I’m so sorry for hurting you, Chuuya.”
  20. They reconcile with a soft and gentle kiss, awkward considering they were so close to killing each other hours earlier but now they feel unexpectedly tender and comfortable on each other’s arms.
  21. After a heartfelt conversation on why they choose to be who they are, Dazai decides the thing he’d been meaning to do for a while now, and that is to leave the villain’s group. The previous reason is to protect Chuuya, and the reason now retains that but it’s also reinforced with his will to live with Chuuya peacefully.
  22. Kissing apologies and silent promises to each other’s ears, they fell asleep holding each other close as a vow to protect and love each other for as long as they are alive.
  23. The conflict arrives when the leader of villains refused to give up his best and leading spawn, Dazai, the luxury and freedom of living normally.
  24. They came up with a plan to destroy the thing that’s making Dazai change; Chuuya.
  25. Somehow they realized Chuuya is a superhero, and thus also realizing they can’t take on Chuuya fairly, they used the cowardly tactic of going after the superhero’s younger apprentices and friends as hostages.
  26. Without telling Dazai due to the enemy’s strict condition, Chuuya went with what the enemy wanted and he gets caught in a trap at a place with an army of the most powerful villains.
  27. Once Dazai knew of this, he ran towards where he deduced they are.
  28. And he arrives to see Chuuya unleashing the extremely powerful ability he hid as a superhero because it would deem him unfit to be called a hero for its destructive ability.
  29. The villains were all trying to escape, while some were already missing, which Dazai realized that Chuuya had already eliminated.
  30. Running to place just a single touch on Chuuya in hopes to stop whatever power that was, Dazai desperately reached out to his lover. His special ability which was feared by villains and superheroes alike, the ability to cancel out other powers/abilities upon touch immediately put Chuuya’s to a stop.
  31. Dazai cradles the unconscious redhead on his arms and brings him to his doctor friend, Yosano-sensei.
  32. Unbeknownst also to them, Chuuya had been carrying their child for a while now. The baby is miraculously saved thanks to Yosano-sensei.
  33. Dazai tenderly kisses sleeping Chuuya’s forehead. With it carried the sweet promise to never let this happen again (to Chuuya and his family), and the dark promise of revenge to those villains remaining alive who dare taint Dazai’s treasure.
  34. With a heavy heart, he leaves Chuuya to finish the job.
  35. Chuuya wakes up days later with the joyful news that he’s pregnant and that the remaining villains seem to have ceased their activities/gone into hiding due to their boss’ sudden death. The redhead knew he wasn’t able to kill the said boss for he cowardly ran to his safety when Chuuya unleashed his powers. So… How could—
  36. Yosano confirms Chuuya’s suspicion and along with the good news, came the sorrowful one that Dazai’s also missing.
  37. Five years later, Chuuya keeps on hearing his little son talking about a mysterious man appearing and talking to him on his dreams.
  38. And three days later, he catches Dazai by their son’s bedside.
  39. “Chuuya.” Dazai seems completely shocked, “I—”
  40. Don’t you dare apologize.” Chuuya silences him with dark eyes, which completely relaxes into a soft gaze.
  41. “Don’t you dare apologize, because I know the reasons why you did what you did. But you have to explain to me why you have to leave me,” Chuuya’s gaze travels to their slumbering son. “Us.”
  42. Dazai looks away, “I can’t have you involved with what I was going to do.”
  43. “Bullshit. I was involved even before that, I was involved since I decided to go in a relationship with you. That’s one of the decisions I don’t regret doing in my shitty life. I gained you, I gained our son. So don’t you dare give me a bullshit reason.”
  44. “Chuuya—” The brunet was interrupted when Chuuya placed a finger on his lips to shush him, and to smile at him.
  45. “I told you, I’m not mad, but I will be fucking furious if you don’t make this better. So you gotta explain it properly to me so we can explain it better to him. Okay?”
  46. Dazai nods, for the first time in years, he feels his eyes burn, and neither of them has the ability of fire.
  47. But that’s fine, because as soon as the child wakes and asks him, “Are you my papa?” Dazai realized his son might just be or much more smarter than him.
  48. Dazai realized once again that one doesn’t need a literal fire to feel warm.
  49. He just needs Chuuya, and their son.
  50. And the world shall know what he can do to protect his family.
