Chuuya Fight Scene/Soukoku Scene Transcript (DEAD APPLE SPOILERS)

Dazai: You
used Corruption, believing in me?

How beautiful.

Chuuya:
Yeah, I did.

I believed in your
disgusting craftiness and refusal to die.

Dazai: That
was a somewhat violent way of waking Snow White.

——

For anyone interested, considering the fact that I… managed to get my hands on the Dead Apple script (somehow~), I’m gonna go ahead and post all the dialogue from the Chuuya vs dragon scene (including the following Soukoku scene) on here for everyone’s enjoyment. Check it out under the read more, but please be sure to avoid this if you don’t want Dead Apple spoilers.

Chuuya
(over the communications, standing on a plane): Get your shit
together, scrub.

Ango:
Chuuya-kun…

Dazai-kun is
almost certainly eliminated by now.

Do you understand
what that means?

Chuuya: I
don’t care.

Ango: Are
you sure?

You haven’t taken
your reward… My life.

Chuuya:
Don’t get cocky, asshole.

You were a lowly
infiltrator six years ago.

No one lent you an
ear when you opposed employing Shibusawa, did they?

This is nothing
but his bumbling.

That dimwit Dazai
is inside there.

No doubt about it.

I need to give him
a smack, or I’ll never get over it.

I’m hanging up.

Ango: I’m
counting on you.

(On the plane)

Tsujimura:
We’re approaching the target.

Chuuya:
You’re that chick from way back.

Tsujimura:
Tsujimura.

Are you really
going?

Chuuya:
Yeah.

Tsujimura:
It’s no use.

It’s a gifted
against a human.

That thing is a
monster beyond human comprehension.

Get overconfident
and fight it, and you’ll die.

Chuuya:
That’s not a reason to chicken out and go home.

Do you know when
it’s all right to chicken out and go home?

Tsujimura:
I do not.

Chuuya
(jumping off the plane): There is no such time.

Grantors of dark
disgrace, you need not wake me again.

(Chuuya
activates Corruption and the battle begins
)

Tsujimura:
Amazing. The readings are all getting higher.

Ango: His
special ability is gravity control.

In this state of
contamination, having become a slave to gravitons, he can neither
control nor disable it.

Tsujimura:
So he has no control of it until he dies?

Ango:
Dazai-kun’s nullification ability is the only way to end it.

Without it, he’s
doomed.

Tsujimura:
No…

(Chuuya vs
dragon fight scene resumes
)

Chuuya:
Dazai!

(Chuuya and
Dazai are seen floating within the dragon. Chuuya punches Dazai to
wake him. After Dazai wakes up, Chuuya coughs up blood, and Dazai
touches his cheek to disable corruption.
)

Dazai: You
used Corruption, believing in me?

How beautiful.

Chuuya:
Yeah, I did.

I believed in your
disgusting craftiness and refusal to die.

Dazai: That
was a somewhat violent way of waking Snow White.

Chuuya:
You’re the one who hid an antidote in your mouth, knowing I’d punch
you.

(They fall to
the ground, with Dazai holding Chuuya
)

Chuuya: Let
go, asshole.

Dazai:
Don’t move.

The fog hasn’t
cleared.

I don’t want to
have to protect you from your special ability in this situation.

Chuuya:
It’s still not over?

Dazai: No,
it’s just beginning.

Chuuya:
Shit.

I can’t move a
single finger.

(Chuuya
collapses into Dazai’s thigh
)

Dazai: I
predicted this far.

But the rest is on
them.

SO. looks like mafia boss dazai with chuuya as his right hand man is Real and Valid in the Shin Soukoku novel… (But At What Cost)

I gotta wonder what Chuuya’s reason for hating Dazai in this verse is– since it’s not like Dazai would have betrayed him by leaving the mafia in this scenario… 

A big thing I was thinking about, though, is if Dazai’s death would mean Chuuya becoming the new mafia boss…? Hierarchy-wise, it would probably make sense, if Chuuya is the second in command… hmm

also got to fucking wonder how chuuya would feel having to take over the mafia because dazai killed himself, and chances are chuuya probably didn’t really know the details at all, considering dazai couldn’t tell him the truth about the book… assuming i’m correct this means chuuya still pretty much got abandoned by dazai… pLEASE SAVE CHUUYA

let’s be real

even if soukoku isn’t truly ~100% literally canon~, it’s ten times more real than it was, say, a week ago, and that’s something to fuckign celebrate

i’ve literally Wanted This For Years and i’m gonna bask in this Hype as much as i possibly can

i know lots of people feel the same, so let’s freely enjoy our moment here, yeah?

ok

ok

here’s my last ditch attempt to try to come up with a theory where the chapter 31 cover can still be canon despite dazai and chuuya not ‘meeting’ until they were older

what if… the chapter cover was canon, but, that’s about it. they see each other like that once or twice, but it can’t really be called a ‘meeting’ since it’s just kinda like, a passing glance. they know of each other’s existence but to say they’re ‘met’ properly would be an overstatement.

what if kouyou still looked after chuuya while he was young, but at some point he went through a Rebellious Phase where he ran away and started his own Sheep Gang

what if dazai was the one tasked with ‘retrieving’ him and bringing him back to the mafia?

what if that was their real ‘first meeting’, and it was after that that they became partners?
