The BSD analog horror au info dump:
Well Analog Horror AU is a stretch considering analog horror comes in a very specific medium but y'know screw you this story i came up with is close enough to your average analog horror web series. So
things to note:
There are NO ABILITIES in this au. but there's something slightly similar that takes it's place. Not every ability user in BSD will be having that power
In this world humanity is being terrorized by these otherworldly entities (calling them strays bc that's funny) that have been let in through [THE BOOK] which is a gateway to the otherworld because mankind tried play god and fucked around and found out too close to the sun
So abilities users are actually humans that have been possessed by the strays that leaked into our world through [THE BOOK] and are used to cause chaos on Earth.
Strays tend to lock onto humans that experienced unimaginable pain bc their soul juice tastes yummier.
The Special Division for Unusual Incidents is a top secret government organization that's dedicated to destroying [THE BOOK] and ending the stray threat.
But the Special Division is massively shady and inadvertently causes more problems than it solves
Dazai is not quite possessed by a stray like you'd think ;^)
Lol no Dazai actually IS a demon here
The Armed Detective Agency is a private investigation company. They're just normal people. That is until Dazai joins and everything starts going insane. Soon their cases devolve from normal crimes to being tied up in infohazard type mysteries.
The Paranormal Guild is a supernatural hunting secret society in America. Them and the DOA want to get [THE BOOK] to destroy it and end the stray invasion.
So the story focuses on the resident photographer of Armed Detective Agency, Atsushi Nakajima beginning a secret investigation after he accidentally discovers that his coworker, Osamu Dazai, may not be human.
It starts when Dazai and Atsushi are investigating a crime scene from one of a series of horrific massacre where people were found completely torn apart and shredded. Turns out that the serial killings are linked to the Mori Home, a shady clinic that's been tied to several missing persons cases, those of which including Akutagawa and Kyouka. And Dazai has a suspicious connection to Dr Mori.
After this Dazai's mask begins to slip and starts acting really erratic and creepy. Soon enough Dazai brings a strange ghostlike girl to the Agency, and it turns out to be the missing Kyouka Izumi.
Atsushi eventually begins to get worried about Dazai, worry also turns into suspicion because Dazai seems to be involved with the missing persons cases, and starts to investigate into his past to find out what his DEAL is. Which leads him (and the rest of the ADA) down the rabbit hole of government conspiracies and the monsters from an alternate dimension and the Mori Home with all its shadiness.
