The protagonist and Ayatsuji Yukito are rivals who clash at every turn, loving and hating each other in equal measure.
They constantly set each other up, take swings at each other, and make each other's lives miserable.
The protagonist is not right in the head. One moment, they might be fighting with Ayatsuji Yukito, and the next they might be cuddling up to him in a move only a complete lunatic could pull off.
They are not a couple. Seriously.
Think of them as travel buddies.
There will be some cuddling, though, and out of sheer perverse amusement and defiance, the protagonist will also make some rather suggestive moves on Yukito-sensei.
If anyone thinks of them as a couple, Sensei's reaction would surely be to throw a handful of sticky rice at them to see if they were possessed, or had come to that conclusion because a ghost had bewitched their eyes.
The protagonist will do plenty of anthropomorphic things, and may not necessarily be of any help to the main cast. Most of the time, they take the role of stirring up trouble just to watch the fun.
They're both broke, but that doesn't stop the protagonist from dressing in gold and jewels, with outfits worth tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions. The specific reason will be explained in the other collection, "Bolei'er Causes Trouble in the Crossover Universe" (already nearly 400 chapters long, and still growing). It will have a bit of a struggling-in-a-rented-room feel.
I started this collection mainly because I found Sensei fascinating after reading the spin-off. I also felt sorry for him, condemned for life to a small, confined world, unable to solve cases freely and according to his own wishes like other detectives.
A detective shouldn't be like that!
I refuse to accept it!
So I decided to write this story.
I'll make the "Murderous Detective" a more independent and free "detective," instead of a "person under close surveillance" shackled by the interests of various factions.
This is my way of filling a regret, though pairing Sensei with a lunatic really is...
Let's give him a moment of silence.
Then again, thinking about a decent person getting tormented makes me want to laugh.
By the way, OOC is unavoidable. Please think of my version of Sensei as a mutated version who has adapted poorly to life in China. The protagonist has corrupted him, and when he's furious, he swears. He's a little goofy, but not too much, and has a more down-to-earth personality. Still, he has to keep his cool and his dignity.
The protagonist is 148 cm tall, of Schrodinger's age, a fake little girl, and a beautiful green-eyed, black-haired Tomie type. Five consciousnesses, each representing the same person at a different age and gender, share one body.
The male lead is 179 cm tall, a mature 27-year-old man. He's said to have short, curly blond hair and golden eyes, though some illustrations show reddish-brown eyes. I think those look better, so he'll have reddish-brown eyes in this story.
They're both sharp-tongued, constantly snapping at each other and undermining one another, and they enjoy seeing the other get flustered.
Ayatsuji Yukito won't have his doll in this story, because the protagonist once said, "I'm your doll."
So Ayatsuji Yukito will dress the protagonist most of the time (like a dress-up doll). Except for the three-year-old consciousness, the other consciousnesses will protest and deeply question his taste. Besides, the protagonist was once an ancient Chinese princess and has mastered embroidery. Later, they learn to make clothes for Fyodor (yes, that little rat). Nearly all their clothes, including their hanfu, are homemade. But to accommodate Ayatsuji Yukito, they'll wear clothes he makes in this world, according to his preferences (Sorry, Sensei. I'm going to give you some weird preferences out of nowhere).
Before Ayatsuji Yukito is taken away from the Bungo Stray Dogs world by the protagonist, he should be pretty rich. Raising dolls is expensive, after all, and I imagine he can make clothes too. Fine, I'll say he can sew, and make him a father figure (Ayatsuji Yukito: ...) taking care of the neurotic, "frail" protagonist.
The protagonist is universally adored and will have ambiguous relationships with other characters (anyone looking for pure romance in my writing, stay away). They're a complete scumbag with no heart. Be warned, they don't act like a decent person.
I'll rack my brains and see if I can work in storylines from The Outcast, The Grave Robbers' Chronicles, and Detective Chinatown. If it doesn't work out, I won't write them...
There will be sanity-blasting scenes from The Strange Tales of a Taoist, with graphic violence and gore. Read with caution.
Theme: A pair of swords, male and female, are invincible together.
