Atsushi is growing up. He has bristles (due to the tiger's abilities there is a lot of it). Ryunosuke shaves Atsushi with the help of Rashomon.
Perhaps Dazai suggested this idea. Perhaps Chuuya taught Ryunosuke how to shave with a blade properly.
Chuuya definitely shaves with a blade. Dazai definitely can't be trusted with a blade.
Kunikida shot twice,
Dazai missed both times
Albert: I want something sweet.
Mycroft: me?
Albert: I wanted to say “wine,” but it's even better.

if I had a nickel for every time I met killer who liked knifes and had killer brother who had a detective boyfriend, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice
One of the possible prototypes of the Iceman is the American writer Eugene O'Neill.
Eugene O'Neill is an outstanding playwright of the 20th century, winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1936.
One of his most famous plays is "The Iceman Cometh".
In this play, a group of tipsy men gather in a saloon. Each of them experiences his own tragedy and suffers from disappointment. The only way for them to feel happiness and satisfaction is to get drunk and spend time in the bar.
However, Theodore "Hickey" Hickman soon appears, joyfully announcing that he no longer drinks, and encourages others to do the same. As the story progresses, Hickey becomes more and more insistent, desperately demanding that others follow his example, seeking to save them from disappointment.
His influence spreads to other characters, who begin to confess their sins and accept reality. It is implied that the only fate for the men left in the bar, stuck in their delusion, is death.
The gist of the story is that death comes to everyone, regardless of their attempts to escape reality. The character of Hickey represents the Iceman and death, encouraging people to strive for unattainable dreams in the hopes that failure will force them to face reality.
Iceman, as one of the Mafia's top assassins, also represents death.
Additionally, Hickey, who came to the bar, is acutely aware of the main conflict of each person there. Iceman is also able to detect and sense the activation of others' abilities, since in BSD, a character's abilities always reflect their main conflict.
To sum it up, it is obvious that since the Flags and Iceman in particular had no goals or dreams outside of the Port Mafia, their fate was predetermined - they were destined to die in the Port Mafia.
I take that theory from https://t.me/Lippmann_Altar
Trying to figure out names for the flags (I’m writing a highschool au and need them to have normal names)
So Lippmann is Walter Lippmann- apparently Chuuya (irl) knew a guy who was a pianist who might’ve been an inspiration for piano man???? And I saw someone say Albatross is Charles Baudelaire. I’m still looking into those two though.
If yall knew anything PLEASE TELL ME
Random thought I got when I was finishing my math homework but here me out: What if Sherlock used to be a math nerd when he was younger? I mean, think about it, Sherly admitted that the reason why he loves solving cases was not because he wants to find the answer, but rather, he loves the process of solving it. And as someone who used to have a genuinely dedicated teacher who has a similar sentiment, I don't think its a stretch to say that Sherly probably liked Math when he was younger and moved to the next best thing as he grew up, solving mysteries and crimes.
"sword in an umbrella" is great with these two
Sherlock: Are you by any chance a mixture of lithium, oxygen, rhodium, dubnium, fluorine, chromium, iodine, manganese and europium?
