09 | 𝓡yuunosuke Akutagawa

Ryunosuke didn't grow up with any affection, so he genuinely believed he could show his love through abusive behavior, just as his former mentor had done for him. At least that would make it clear that what he feels for you is real.
So one day he started doing the same to you, though he would (grudgingly) apologize if he realized he'd crossed a line—only if he considered it so, of course. Countless training sessions that only his subordinates should receive, and you'd apologize with the same excuse: "It's normal." Ryunosuke wanted you to be perfect (similar to Dazai). Perfect for him, though he himself didn't quite grasp the term or its meaning. He couldn't even trust you despite everything. Every time he saw you with someone else, something inside him broke, even though he kept telling himself it wasn't jealousy.
Even now, he's looking at you with so much hatred and resentment while you're talking to Tachihara. Why talk to someone else when you have him? Isn't he enough for you?
