I have an idea for an au, Dazai Osamu is Tim Drake’s past life.
And you could say they have nothing in common, you’d be wrong, they’re both super intelligent people, they’re both manipulative assholes when they want to, they’re both paranoid, they both have a relationship with a clone who’s not a clone (Kon is a clone but he also has Lex’s DNA, he’s obviously a tube baby but some people aren’t ready for that talk, and Chuuya well, he has all the stuff with being a lab rat and I think it was canon that he’s not the clone but Chuuya isn’t sure so he has the whole trauma of being a clone anyways so it counts)
And speaking of Chuuya and Kon, Chuu is totally Kon’s past life and that’s one of the reasons why when Tim and Kon meet they had this problem between them, like always fighting and stuff. Also Kon has TTK and Chuuya can control gravity, they’re really similar powers if you think about it.
So yeah, Dazai is Tim past life Chuu is Kon past life. Now can you all think about the angst of these people? Like imagine the reason Tim follows Batman's rules so much is because he feels like he needs to be good and that's another reason why he hates his future self (Batman with guns) because he makes him think about his time in the mafia, about Oda and the agency.
Remember how much Dazai cares about Oda and how Tim was really a super fan of Dick, what if Dick made him feel comfortable because he made Tim think about Oda, like Dick isn't Oda's reincarnation or anything, they're just similar and that makes Tim feel better and worse, because he loves Oda and sometimes he thinks what if Oda was there and not Dick and Tim hates thinking like that because Dick is his brother. And better because at least he has a reminder of his friend in some way.
I think in this au the only people with past lives who are BSD are Tim and Kon because Soukoku is one soul in two bodies, so obviously they would follow each other into the reincarnation cycle while yelling and hitting each other. I'm not sure if I like the idea of Tim remembering his past life, just parts, or just feeling things but not knowing where they came from and the same with Kon, but I'm not sure if I want one to remember and the other not.
I remember something that i want to say, write? Well to the point, Tim is also suicide like Dazai, like not as hardcore as Dazai but Tim has his moments and that is other thing they have in common (like all of Red Robin, with gun Batman and all of the times his plans were well too reckless) And canon Tim would totally ask Kon to shot him but use his TTK to stop the bullet (i can also see him asking just to got hurt to have a way to stop somone from finding out he is Red Robin, he as alreday pulled that type of shit before)
The more I think, the more I see the resemblance between Dazai and Tim. If I'm not mistaken, in one of the comics, Tim pretends to break his leg to avoid his identity being discovered, and all I can think of is a 15-year-old Dazai pretending to have a broken arm.
Well i am going to stop thinking more of this because i will never going to stop writing if i do, if somone has Mor wife as about this please tell me
