as we danced to the masochism tango

Summary:

"Ha? What's wrong with my eyes?" Dazai pulls out a pocket mirror from his coat and then it occurs to him what Atsushi meant. His irises have turned from a brown to a bloody color.  "Oh, that." Dazai's smile disappears and he plunges his gaze back into the computer. "It should disappear soon."

(or in which Dazai's a really hungry vampire but he refuse to drink blood until it's...)

the title is from "The Masochism Tango" by Tom Lehrer

Notes:

I hope y'all like it <3

Work Text:

Dazai today was completely unable to focus. Actually, not just today, yesterday too, a month ago too, a year ago too, but today especially. He was so incredibly hungry that it was slowly killing him (although Dazai wouldn't let himself be killed so easily, what's not).

 

Everyone was in the office today, which was exceptional because the city has been very stormy lately, but since there were no orders it was better for him, because he really doesn't know how he would have fared in the field today. Kunikida kept looking at him with a curious and somewhat frightened expression and Dazai had no idea what he was referring to, and he was about to find out.

 

"Dazai-san?" Atsushi asks. Dazai really tried to distract himself in every way possible today, he even made up paperwork of his own free will (this horrified Kunikinda). He turned in reports that, while not written down in as much detail as his partner did, but they at least were done. Nothing, however, distanced him from the thought that he was so fucking hungry.

 

"Yes, Atsushi-kun?" The dark-haired man answers by poking his nose out of the computer. He looks at his protégé and smiles in his usual manner. "Is something wrong?"

 

"Are you okay?" Weretiger inquires, prioritizing his mentor's safety.

 

"Ah, things have never been better, why?"

 

"Well..." Atsushi stutters for a moment. "Today you actually took care of the paperwork, that's not like you, and now... your eyes..."

 

"Ha? What's wrong with my eyes?" Dazai pulls out a pocket mirror from his coat and then it occurs to him what Atsushi meant. His irises have turned from a dark color to a bloody color.  "Oh, that." Dazai's smile disappears and he plunges his gaze back into the computer. "It should disappear soon."

 

"This is the first time I've seen you do that, I didn't know vampires could do that" Kenji leans out from behind his desk and looks at the man.

 

"It's a little scary" Tanizaki says.

 

"Interesting, very interesting" Yosano adds.

 

"Dazai-san, why are your eyes red?" Asks Atsushi, but gets no answer. The man was already about to give up when Ranpo spoke.

 

 "He's just hungry, that's the whole story," the detective opens a chocolate banana bar.

 

Dazai covers himself with a soft blush as if he were a fourteen-year-old caught following his crush. Kunikida improves in his chair, seemingly not caring about the situation in the office. You can see from him, however, that he is currently nervous about Dazai's condition as if he is afraid that the latter will lash out at him like some bloodthirsty beast (well, he couldn't rule that out). The rest didn't care; they were more curious.

 

"Ah, that makes sense, however, I've never seen such eyes in... another vampire" He muses, and Dazai raises his gaze from above the keyboard. "Uh, Dazai-san?" The boy asks, as his mentor looks at him in a rather... strange way. "I already know!" He says and holds out his wrist, "Do you want it?"

 

Everyone in the office is looking at them; Kyoka has a bored look on her face as usual, Yosano has left her office, Ranpo has a small smile under his breath and is waiting for the situation to develop, Kenji is Kenji, Tanizaki and Naomi have interrupted their typical behavior (which already meant that something is wrong), and Kunikida sort of moves his chair a little closer to the exit so that he can make a quick escape if something happens (deep down he thanks Atsushi for sacrificing himself for the good of the public).

 

"Yes" He says without hesitation, he was that hungry, as he smells the sweet scent of Atsushi's blood and something... more? He doesn't think about it for long, however, and is already sticking out his fangs whenever the thought hits him. "I don't think Akutagawa would like that" He moves his wrist away from the fangs, even though he was so desperate to taste the blood.

 

"Excuse me?" Atsushi blushes and now the agency's entire gaze is directed at him.

 

Dazai touches his white fangs, which refuse to hide anymore. "I can smell Akutagawa's venom in your blood, and I don't think he'll be willing to share." He puts his face on the desk. "God, I'm about to do something to myself."

 

Kunikida jumps up in his chair, all the while looking at Dazai.

 

Kyoka looks at Atsushi with a gaze that could easily kill. "You didn't brag."

 

"Uh, Kyoka-chan..." He says embarrassed.

 

"I have bags of blood in the study if you want," Yosano interjects seeing the state Dazai is in.

 

"Bags... of blood?"

 

"Why, don't you like something? Any objections? Not sophisticated enough?" The doctor asks angrily.

 

"No, no, I... I just can't, but it's nice that you're trying to help" He smiles at Kunikida showing him his fangs, and in the poor man's eyes is showing real terror.

 

"You can't?" Tanizaki decides to riddle.

 

Ranpo opens a strawberry lollipop. "He can't because he doesn't want to drink blood other than-"

 

"Chuuya?" Dazai looks at him, completely blushing because in Chuuya's two-week absence he hasn't had access to his blood."

 

The redhead looks at his boyfriend for a moment, and when he sees Dazai's red eyes and general condition he smiles under his breath and snorts. He goes straight to the president's office.

 

"Chuuya...?"

 

"Ah, Mr. Fancy Hat probably came with the documents."

 

Yosano looks at the situation when she suddenly shouts "NO FUCKING WAY!"

 

Ranpo laughs. "Pay" He extends his hand toward the doctor and she resignedly gives him the money.

 

Dazai completely ignores the fact that his co-workers have bet on something and goes straight to the president's office passing a completely frightened Kunikda (Dazai will have to apologize later for scaring him). He knocks twice and without waiting for an answer goes inside.

 

"Oh, Dazai, we just finished, did you want something?" Fukuzawa says, but the man ignores him.

 

"Chuuya"

 

"Dazai"

 

The brunet looks at him. "Come on"

 

"I'm coming" And they leave leaving Fukuzawa beaten down by the fact that Dazai's fangs were sticking out.

 

They enter the Agency's main room, where Chuuya informs the rest that he's taking Dazai home, since he's not going to be anything anyway.

 

Kunikida breathes a sigh of relief.

 

They walk out into the hallway.

 

"So? You won't even say hello to me? You haven't seen me in so long, Osamu."

 

The dark-haired man looks at him with hungry eyes and without ceremony throws himself at the man. He throws him back against the wall (which certainly caused the building to shake slightly) and drives his fangs into Chuuya's neck.

 

"Ouch! Asshole, you could have warned me," he says, but smiles gently and grabs Dazai by the back of the head. "Drink up, Osamu."

 

The vampire greedily drinks the blood from the man. God, how he has been dreaming of this. With each sip he feels better, and yet he doesn't stop. Chuuya, for his part, begins to feel dizzy and his knees buckling under him.

 

"Ah, that's enough," he says and Dazai finally retracts his fangs and licks what's left on his skin. However, he interrupts this to cling to Chuuya again, this time without fangs, and simply sucks the blood from the bite wounds.

 

"You inexperienced Mackerel, that's enough, I'm about to pass out," he pushes Dazai away from him.

 

"Sorry, I was on a hunger strike" He looks at him, already with brown eyes. "I missed you"

 

"Me, or my blood?"

 

"You, of course" He takes Chuuya in a hug. "You"

 

Chuuya strengthens the hug. "Me too"

 

But then Dazai runs his tongue over the redhead's wounds again.

 

"Osamu!"

 

"There, there, I just had to clean it" He removes one bandage from his wrist and puts it around Chuuya's neck.

 

A smile appears on both of their faces and they are finally at home.

 


 

"Did you hear that?" Kunikida finally dares to speak up.

 

"Something shook?" Yosano looks into her coffee, the surface of which has rocked.

 

"I'll go check it out," Atsushi opens the door to the hallway and immediately regrets it because he has just witnessed the feeding, most likely of lovers, so he immediately retreats to the office. "Oh my God."

 

"What was that?" Tanizaki walks to the door, but Atsushi covers it with his whole body. The redhead looks at him questioningly.

 

"It's... intimate."

 

"Don't tell me they're fucking in the Agency's hallway," Yosano looks genuinely surprised.

 

"No, not that... Dazai bit Chuuya".

 

"And? Everyone knew this was going to happen" the woman asks pleased that her co-worker is not fucking in her workplace after all"

 

"You don't understand... this is very intimate for a vampire. Feeding is intimate" Atsushi walks away from the door seeing that the detectives have already let go.

 

"This is stupid" Kyoka says looking at Astushi, still not forgiving him for not telling her about Akutagawa.

 

"Atsushi, are you speaking from autopsy?" Ranpo smiles while opening the cookie pocky.

 

"Stop it already!"
