Kuramerukagari × Durarara!! Crossover AMV
I think I am officially Fandom Old. I am so worn out from the arguments on who's the top or the bottom (who cares), what is allowed to be written (anything you want, bejeebus), what is Problematic (I know, just tag it), what other people Should Do (they Should live their lives free of judgment). There isn't a Right Way to do things. Tag your stuff appropriately, don't read stuff you don't want to read, and leave other people (me) alone.
There is nothing quite like the freedom of having gone through all of the Discourse and come out the other side into the promised land of Not Giving A Fuck.
The three keys to the promised land are “Block, Unfollow, and Do Not Engage”
How it feels to have curated your space in fandom
Remembering how in the sequel books when Shizuo is wondering about his future, Tom immediately thinks if there was anyone complementary for Shizuo to work with, Shizuo and Izaya would make perfect (work) partners and then has to remind himself not to say this out loud or Shizuo would be upset. Only the most rational character in the series thinking they’d be good together
Yearning~
The hints of Izaya’s home life in middle school, that he’d prefer to come to school during summer vacation because what waits at home is neglectful, inattentive parents and his four year old twin sisters he takes care of…of course, when he enters high school and Shizuo shows him undivided and intense attention for the first time in Izaya’s life, he’ll play any type of nasty trick to keep that attention
Manifesting an Operation Javier remake WITHHH their stupid-ass Hawaii-5-0 (Detective) alt costumes. If Leon's not in the most horrendous looking skinny jeans, paris hilton sunglasses, and orange shirt I don't want it.
i have returned once more yet again with another metaltango edit. also learned that jim ward passed away earlier december, rip man nothing can replace og krauser’s voice
Shinra Kishitani and his hideous shirt
BABIES FIRST YAOI……
you dont get it i love that izaya is so hated by everyone and that he acknowledges people have reasons to hate him but he also resents being unloved but refuses to change this about himself i love that he holds a grudge against shizuo for being so loved i need izaya to actively make everyone’s life worse out of this misguided grudge i love when he’s a toxic bitch like this 🧎♀️➡️🧎♀️➡️🧎♀️➡️
Someone (Densuke Sozoro actually): It's a good thing Izaya never found an individual he loved and loves all of humanity instead. If someone like him was in love, he'd destroy anything to make sure that person loved him.
Shinra: *exists and is willing to do exactly that*
-
Anri: I can't cut Izaya Orihara! He'd be a selfish monster with Saika and would cause all kinds of chaos.
Takashi Nasujima: *was cut by Haruna Niekawa and therefore received Saika's power, and ended up being one of the biggest problems in the whole series*
-
Celty: Shizuo, it's a good thing you weren't friends with Izaya. He would have just used you to get what he wanted.
Shizuo: *is used by Shinra to get what he wanted causes Celty's head to get cut off again*
-
Masaomi: Mikado, don't you realize Izaya has just been using you this whole time?
Aoba: *appears to Mikado and uses him the entire time (albeit Mikado being perfectly aware of this)*
-
Shizuo: Any time some random violent crap happens you're [Izaya] somehow involved.
Shizuo: *causes random violent crap*
-
Anyway,,,
I'd say at least 75% of the shit that goes down in Ikebukuro (and to a lesser extent Shinjuku) is not at all Izaya's fault. He just knows about it because he knows who to keep an eye on. Sure sometimes he nudges people along and instigates, but none of it would actually go anywhere if everyone else wasn't also, for lack of a better description, absolutely bat shit insane.
Example: Shinra did plastic surgery on a girl who stalked and broke into a guy's house and saw a head in a jar that the guy was obsessed with. Shinra is in love with the owner of the head, Celty, and the girl wants her beloved to think her original head was replaced with Celty's because that's obviously how that works. Izaya is keeping an eye on things by being friends with Shinra and also employing the guy's sister (who has some fucked up incest thing going on) but he never actually CAUSED any of that. They did it on their own.
I find it very similar to how the whole "Dollars colour gang" concept is protrayed. It's described and played up as a gang with no real leader, but you know what it looks like to me? With the whole website forum, ordinary people being involved, no actual leadership or real chain of command? Personal username and password to log in? It's a social media site. It's like reddit. And to me it seems that's what Izaya is like, story-wise. Everyone thinks he's some big secret manipulator, when he really just says a couple smartass comments and then sits back to watch the city implode completely on its own because it is populated by people with absolutely no chill.
Edit: I completely forgot to mention that the guy thinks the girl's head was replaced because he ATTACKED AND ALMOST KILLED HER after she broke into his home and then sat in front of Celty's head eating food in a room covered in blood splatter and (what he thought was) a whole ass corpse. Izaya had nothing to do with that. Everyone in Ikebukuro is off the rails.
Me, trying to explain my OTP : and so they can’t stand to be apart, that's why Shizuo is always chasing Izaya and why Izaya always comes back and-
My boyfriend : So you're just shipping Tom and Jerry
Me : -_-
drrr fanart can’t get gayer than this official art
if you spend your life bitching and complaining about the fact people are 'expected' to engage in the dreaded pointless banal '''small talk''' instead of learning to trade pleasantries with the people around you, you will never know the true and heady joy of doing a dumb bit with a complete stranger and as a result your soul will remain small
there are random strangers out there who are just waiting to hear all the worst jokes your dad ever told you and if you don't open yourself to the delight of saying hello how's it going, och you know, living the dream as always, you will simply never find them
I've had this post muted for so long I forgot I wrote it, and when I saw it again I was like "haha remember how unbelievably angry some people got with me about this" and looked in the notes. reader they are still unbelievably angry about being baseline pleasant to strangers.
I was once stuck during rush hour traffic, 15 minutes of being first car at a red light, because cars kept entering the intersection and couldn't empty it before my green light. By the third red light i was fuming. And then i realized the guy in the car to the left of me was trying to get my attention. I rolled my window down. And he said, "can you believe this shit?" While motioning to the two tracks of hubristic morons blocking our path.
And up until that moment I hadn't realized just how badly i needed to someone to bitch about the traffic to.
