IM GOING DOWNTOWN COSPLAYING CHUUYA NAKAHARA AND PORT MAFIA OSAMU DAZAI TOMORROW WITH A CLOSE WEEB FRIEND

IM GOING DOWNTOWN COSPLAYING CHUUYA NAKAHARA AND PORT MAFIA OSAMU DAZAI TOMORROW WITH A CLOSE WEEB FRIEND AND I'M VERY NORMAL ABOUT THAT FACT.

I believe I've decided. In my opinion, once you've heard about an album's worth of songs (10-15) it's appropriate to claim some knowledge of the band. Thanks to everyone who gave their thoughts!

I know this is a stupid conversation to have, but I've recently realized that I may have a really screwed definition of this and I need to compare with other punks, goths, metalheads and otherwise music lovers so LISTEN UP.

In your opinion, how much of a band's discography do you have to had listened to in order to claim that you listen to the band?

Because my whole life, if I found a band, I wouldn't claim to really know them at all if I hadn't listened to their ENTIRE discography- even if that was twenty albums. And I wouldn't listen to any other music until I got through it all. Only recently I kinda stopped doing that because it gets exhausting not being able to move on until I've heard EVERYTHING this new band I'm into has put out. Music became more of a chore than anything. But you also don't wanna be like "I listen to Pierce the Veil!" if you've heard three songs. Where's the line?

Hilarious

au where dazai is still in the pm but somehow has met the entire ada and somehow charmed them (look the agency has strange standards) so they're all actively trying to get him to change sides

featuring fukuzawa lowkey bragging about being a better father figure i mean boss than mori

ranpo inviting him for chess matches so dazai knows he'll have an intellect buddy at the ada

them putting up his picture on their employee wall portrait thingie (lucy poe and karl are also there)

junichiro trying to bribe him with video games awkwardly

naomi trying to blackmail him (you know she would)

yosano inviting him for trash talking sessions and girl nights (they talk shit about mori mostly)

kenji gifting him fruits veggies and the occasional cow to show goodwill

kunikida regularly checking in on him and mailing him pros of joining the ada and employee benefits

atsushi at some point just taking his hand and bringing him to work

also atsushi just telling dazai to come hang out a little earlier than they can actually meet so he's forced to be at the office

yosano trying to convince kunikida to "seduce" him; ranpo flat out telling dazai why he'd prefer it here

them bribing him with food

fukuzawa openly being kind and welcoming to him; kyouka considering kidnapping him when she herself leaves

kyouka sending him regular notes about how much happier she is to convince him

haruno offering to let him pet mii-chan; kenji reassuring him they want to be his friend; junichiro offering murder; atsushi offering to feed him (he already lowkey does)

anyway

dazai thinks they're just messing with him at first - then he thinks they want his ability which fair - now he's just confused

Anybody else cursed forever or is it just me and that guy from The Front Bottoms

I LOVE THIS MAKEUP

GOD WHY IS HE SO HOT

you can't kill me
