Just going to leave it here but I just finished your soukoku a mouth to empty into series and wow it was amazing ♡ After part 1 I had no idea that it's a series and just wanted to check out more of your writing and was thinking it looks like the same universe oh how I wish it'd be a series and when the realisation hit me I was so happy! I really like the way you wrote both Chuuya and Dazai making both of them feel very in character and how you explored Dazai's trauma from the PM times and being a subordinate of Mori (it really made me think what Mori could've done to Dazai when he was a kid that we don't know about) while still giving us more hopeful soukoku moments. Your style is also really nice to read and sets the tone in an exciting way!
I have no idea when this ask was sent but thank you so fucking much im in tears thank u
