this gives me an excuse to say this;
Chuuya's poem "young beast's song" is in written in my pages, between each universe.
Ōba Yōzō is also in written in my pages, between each universe (as well as the story lives on). I won't say how, because spoilers lol.
I really, truly, have believed that Ōba Yōzō should have been featured in BSD, instead of Dazai. No offense to Dazai likers, but I feel that Yōzō could be an interesting character. (hence why I've added him into my stories, though not AS Dazai, in a way)
I dunno. I follow the bsd-bibliophile Tumblr page, and seeing quotes from the actual authors just...makes me want to write constant stories about how I think the characters in BSD should be. (Kind of like headcanons, yk?)
Only issue with any of that is that I don't want to hear people yapping about "mischaracterizing!"
anyway
I think bsd fics should show more of the actual authors work in it.
Like, you can make the bsd character be themselves, but it be coolor if you showed the character have thoughts their author or character they're based off of thought too.
Like Dazai, thinking things like Yozo does, or Dazai the author himself does. Or even the other works he has made.
Dazai, thinking "I wonder how it would be if I let go and yielded myself to depravity." from The Setting Sun.
Not just "Mine has been a life much of shame. I can't even guess myself what it must be to love the life a human being." from No Longer Human.
even check @/bsd-bibliophile for the quotes they post and use those.
adding onto this post, I want to write about Edgar Allen poe (yes, the BSD version, lol) but my view on the guy is...eh. I don't see Poe as a scared, quiet, anxious type. Personally, I've always viewed Poe as the crazy, silent-but-deadly, "yandere" type of dude.
I don't know. Unpopular opinion but most of the characters in BSD (how they're represented)....kinda suck.
They're written well, don't get me wrong, but like...bro?
Gods, I could go ON about things I dislike about BSD but alas.
anyway, love you all. Next chapter of the story lives on will be out sooner or later. <3
