"I was a prey all my life, but I became a predator for the same reason too." For my whole life, even before I had reached my adolescence, I knew I dreamed of becoming a detective - just like father once was - my admiration and respect for the title never running short since I was a mere child. What I did not know, however, was that my ambition of becoming one would arrive sooner than expected, being forced into engaging with real crimes and relying on my own capabilities and the abilities of others to solve these. While death came knocking at my door, so did the start of a new relationship, with whom Yokohama knew as being their "greatest detective".

ONGOING (ON HIATUS) ♡ All you wanted was normal, but in a world with abilities, normal is far too unrealistic. ♡ You were unable to tell dream from reality growing up in the slums just outside of Yokohama city, always fighting for your life, numb to the constant suffering all for the right to live another day. During your time there you had known a group of children your age and got by with them in your darkest times; amongst those in the group, a brother and sister you empathized with more than the rest. However, after an incident, while the other children died they both disappeared and you were alone again. You thought you deserved it. Years later, you've found simple work at a tea shop in a small corner in Yokohama, taking impossible shifts to cover your inability to sleep due to your ability which you harbour so much hate for...until you see a face that pulls you back to your past and you make a mistake. You start to believe in the lies and debt of the Port Mafia boss for a simple relief of the part of you you resent the most. Of course, that's not all the keeps you there. Akutagawa. He is familiar, so you can't help but be curious. You both are. Moreover, after a twist of fate, you also become unexpectedly consumed in another's light. Atsushi. He feels safe, and you can't deny the need for it. Stuck in your mind, when both begin to mean different things to you it's chaos inside turned to insomnia; but who will be the one to grant you true peace of mind in the end? ♡ Disclaimer: I don't own bungo stray dogs or any of the characters except for you, and the plot. - this may start off a bit slow. ♡ Trigger Warnings: the usual in anything bsd. - I will be using female pronouns. - I update whenever I can. - SORRY FOR ANY OOC-NESS - Your ability in this story is lightly inspired by Edgar Allan Poe's poem "A Dream". ♡ Thank you to Mar (@marster_) for making me this cover.

In that accursed paradise the orphanage knew as the bamboo grove, your hands had been stained by the blood of a child because you let the tiger take him from your arms... The moon frowned at the blood. The death of a person is not just a number. The bad guy had to die; that's how every story ends. The world was not wide enough for orphans, anyway. 𝘎𝘰𝘰𝘥𝘣𝘺𝘦, 𝘈𝘵𝘴𝘶𝘴𝘩𝘪.

What if after one accident, all your memories were blocked, and the one rule to your recovery is to not force yourself to remember, but figure things out as the days go on? What if you couldn't even remember who you loved? You may have the detective agency caring for you, but there's something missing, and you can't quite place why...or how you lost it. How far are you willing to go to find it again? ▵ Disclaimer: I don't own bungo stray dogs or any of the characters except for you, and the plot.

ONGOING ✯ "Love me rough and let me fly." ✯ Everyone knows that feeling you get in the pit of your stomach when something is even just slightly off. Some could say it's like a sixth sense, others just call it instinct. You call it a gift. 25, born in Russia and CEO of a government owned finance company in Yokohama, you're relatively young for such a position. Your authority is always questioned, and after one minor slip up, you now have the police watching you closely; too closely for your own liking, especially when not many know about your ability. You prefer it that way. You've always been a sucker for power, and the constant criticism you receive with the need to be so careful has given you a craving for freedom...a craving too easily teased after you encounter a specific man - or maybe just a clown - for better or for worse. Especially when something about him feels so familiar, and the messy memories of your past in Russia begin to surface. They say one moment can change your life, but you never believed it until now...but the only question in your mind is: Who is he? What's waiting for you at the end of this riddle? ✯ Trigger warnings: I don't think anything specific but whatever you find in bsd could count. - I will be using female pronouns. - I update whenever I can. ✯ Your ability is based off of the real life Nikolai Gogol's dead souls novel (more or less). ✯ Disclaimer: I don't own the characters except for "you". The credit to the Bungou Stray Dogs world goes to the respective owners. The plot is all originally mine, however. ✯ Thank you to Mar (@marster_) for making this cover.

ONGOING ❦ This fanfic is an alternate reality of my other one called "The Marionette", in which Dazai came back into your life permanently. I recommend reading that one first, but it won't be completely necessary to read this one. ❦ How deep do your wounds run? There was no better way to describe you than a doll, living to please your owner. At the age of 11, Mori took you in from an orphanage and brought you to the Port Mafia. At the age of 12, you become Dazai's right hand...except you aren't allowed any contact with the outside world. At 13, all you hear around you is drowned out by the voice of only one, and at 14 you've become nothing but a puppet in the hands of a puppet master. At age 15 he's gone, and you are left with nothing. In the present, now 19, executive Kouyou Ozaki is given responsibility of you, but when she puts you in charge of working with Ryunosuke Akutagawa for strategic purposes, truths of your past are exposed and bring you back to where you started. With Dazai. How much has changed? ❦ Disclaimer: I do not own Bungou Stray Dogs or any of its characters, only the plot and "you". ❦ Trigger Warnings: - Anything you may find in BSD already. - In the story because it's related to Dazai, specifically mentions of suicide and harm. - Descriptions of depression and other mental illnesses. - Toxic relationships, abuse. ❦ Extra: - I will be using female pronouns. - I will update whenever I can. ❦ A big thank you to Mar (@marster_) for making me this cover!

COMPLETED • There is no better way to describe you than a doll, living to please your owner. At the age of 11, Mori took you in from an orphanage and brought you to the Port Mafia; that's when you met Dazai and discovered your ability. At the age of 12, you become Dazai's right hand...except you aren't allowed any contact with the outside world. At 13, you hear a voice that you are told is nothing but a dream, at 14 you've become nothing but a puppet in the hands of a puppet master. At age 15 he's gone, and you are left with nothing. In the present, now 19, executive Chuuya Nakahara is given responsibility of you, but when he takes you on a mission and you don't react the way he needs you to, he starts to realize something is terribly wrong with you...he just doesn't know what. Only meeting you once in the past, what will happen when he starts piecing it all together? How will he react when he starts to care more about you than he should? What strings will he have to play to free you from your past? How deep do your wounds run? • - Trigger warnings: the usual you'd find in BSD, implications of sexual harrassment. - I will be using female pronouns. - nsfw warning in part 2 (chapter 41). • Disclaimer: I don't own the characters except for "you". The credit to the Bungou Stray Dogs world goes to the respective owners. The plot is all originally mine, however. • Thank you to Mar for making me this lovely cover. Love always. (@marster_)

"Never play with the feelings of others because you may win the game, but the risk is that you surely lose the person for a lifetime." Love is as complicated as it gets. It can be found in the most unexpected of places and manifest before we ourselves realise it. And it seems no different when [Y/N] experiences this herself. But the complications of love are hardly ever mentioned, and when they are, those already victims of love are way too deep into it to have salvation.
