Fics like the uncanny valley swings low and deep

When Dazai Osamu first appeared on the agency’s doorstep with an incomplete application and a halfhearted recommendation, Ranpo’s first impression was ‘kill it with fire.’ His second thought was ‘it can’t join the agency.’ Much like a stray cat, Ranpo could see in the thing’s desperate, starved eyes that if it were given a scrap of affection, it would curl up in the nearest sunny spot and never leave. He didn’t need his (an) ability to see that. (Fukuzawa’s love for strays, unfortunately, devastatingly, rubbed off on them all.) Or: Five impressions of Dazai and one that happened years and a lifetime ago.
