Time Scythe
The Time Scythe. It's a pretty normal looking scythe that has a pocket watch strung on it. Despite its normalcy and lack of creative name, it's one of a kind and helps in combat as well as furthering Meddly's ability.
"Running Out of Time"
"Running Out of Time", Meddly's Ability. It slows down time for a certain brief period with a limited range. In exchange, it takes an excruciating mental strain on the user while activated. If the user's mind isn't honed enough, the ability will falter and collapse, resuming time before its maximum given. Regardless of the mind being honed enough, the user will pass out for some time after the ability is over. Meddly's scythe helps to stabilize the ability and ground their hectic mind better. They are still able to use their ability without it, but efficiency and aftermath will be less than desirable.
Physical Combat
Physical Combat. Since Meddly was pretty frail and prone to being sick a lot in the past, they find it bothersome at times but acknowledges it is as neccessary as any other form of combat and is essentially the fundamentals in case of their scythe not being around. It took some time, but they've improved. They tend to be more aggressive and use more agility and precision in fighting, rather than brute forcing the fight, as they find it much more fun to fight that way.
Story
Present
Self explanatory; a briefing on how the current Meddly is.
(WIP) I'll find time to write more, but in short, let's say they're a lot more at peace with themself. More sections will be added that fill in what Meddly's role was in each arc of the main BSD story.
Solace in a Bittersweet Reunion
The Origin of Meddly joining the Armed Detective Agency and reuniting with Dazai.
(WIP) This arc takes place roughly a year before Atsushi is taken into the ADA and a few months after leaving the Decay of the Angel (Thorn-ridden Sanction). It has been about 3 years since Meddly and Dazai last saw or heard about the other.
The Dark Era (Past)
Essentially, the backstory of Meddly as well as meeting Dazai for the first time.
(WIP) This arc takes place after the events of Fifteen and carries up until the end of The Dark Era which leads into joining the Decay of the Angel (Thorn-ridden Sanction).
Thorn-ridden Sanction (Past)
The events and whereabouts of Meddly after leaving the Port Mafia subsequently after Dazai, but instead finding themself in the hands of the Decay of the Angel-- this includes how Nikolai and Meddly met.
(WIP) This arc takes place shortly after leavng the Port Mafia (The Dark Era) and will eventually lead to leaving the DOA and joining the ADA with the reunion of Dazai and Meddly (Solace in a Bittersweet Reunion). This arc is a major part in Meddly's behavior changing when reuniting with Dazai, compared to the Dark Era.
Trivia
General
- More often than not, Meddly is seen trying to commit double suicide with Dazai. it never works and they end up getting dragged back to work. A part of them is glad it never works out though.
- Meddly enjoys lounging around the Uzamaki Cafe downstairs and can usually be found there if they aren't with Dazai or in the quarters of the agency working.
- Meddly had a lot of trouble opening back up to others after the events of Thorn-ridden Sanction, but has become better with the help of Dazai, much to their surprise.
Combat
- Meddly's combat is somewhat inspired by Goro Majima from Yakuza.
- The idea of a scythe as a weapon was inspired by Honkai Impact.
- If Meddly doesn't have their scythe on hand, they'll use any other weapon before engaging in hand to hand combat. They seem to be skilled in weaponry, but will absolutely knock the daylights out of someone if it comes down to it.
Social
- Despite hating public speaking, Meddly is actually quite good at it; strong and has a way with words until after finishing where they crumble to the ground shaking out of pure anxiety.
- Meddly is primariliy more outgoing and more relaxed with Dazai, the rest of the ADA and Nikolai.
- Somewhat good at getting along with people but has difficulties maintaining relationships in the long run with less closer friends, but Meddly genuinely means well most of the time.
Design
- BSD is the only media where Meddly's design is absolutely the same as the original. Perhaps they found more of a home and attachment to this universe.
- The loose bracelet-like strings on Meddly's wrists were inspired by Maya Fey from Ace Attorney.
- Meddly's outfit choices are usually Dark Academia themed.

Meddly's one and only. To sum up their entire relationship, it'd be majorly chaotic, objectively random and comforting. If you didn't see the romantic side of things, people would just see them as two really close friends who were partners in crime-- which, they were. It wasn't until they reunited that they decided to date each other. Dazai is usually the more affectionate one while Meddly is somewhat more reserved but not closed off entirely to it since they're touch starved and maybe a bit clingy. But, Dazai is too, so it works. Meddly might be a little more responsible than Dazai, but they are just as irritating as him at times, much to Kunikida's dismay. Dazai drags them to the couch to laze around since he doesn't like seeing Meddly overwork, but also to get out of doing work generally. Their double suicides do not work and the two are practically inseperable. Dazai is able to fluster and tease Meddly easily which would either make them weak in the knees or lead to some dramatic and/or witty banter. They proposed to each other at the same time coincidentally, this being somewhere definitely after Atsushi and Kyouka joined. Overall, they have a deep bond, find a lot of comfort in each other and are a fun pair. They both bring out something the other lacked and pick up on it as they grew together.
(WIP) Almost sees Atsushi as a son of sorts, so they have this parent-son relationship going on, but they're good friends. In some way, Meddly is reminded of themself sometimes when watching Atsushi.
(WIP) When Meddly isn't being some double Dazai, they're someone Kunikida can usually get along with. While Meddly's work ethic isn't as strict as Kunikida's, they're both still relatively dilligent and on top of things. Kunikida gets concerned a lot over Meddly.
Aside from Dazai, Meddly probably enjoys being in Ranpo's company the most. They just find him to be an absolute mood and Ranpo is always around to help ease up Meddly when Dazai isn't. They both seem to share a common thing with being gifted and having high expectations held up to them, so they don't bother with that and just kick back, grab a snack and chat about nothing in particular.
On some occasions, Meddly will be dragged out to go shopping with Yosano. Shopping is not their thing, but finds Yosano a pleasure to be around, so they tag along without much resistance. Meddly really respects how strong and sensible an individual Yosano is and always hypes her up. Sometimes, Yosano will show Meddly a few things in the medical department of things when Meddly has nothing better to do.
Meddly thinks it's absolutely hilarious how bluntly strong Kenji is and says it's one of the coolest things ever. They really enjoy helping Kenji out here and there back at his hometown, finding it somewhat humbling and refreshing from the city of Yokohama. Meddly definitely encouraged Kenji's cow being brought to the agency.
Meddly hates how Kyouka was treated by the PM. And they hate remembering what the PM did to themself and Dazai, so they do their best to make Kyouka's experience with a normal life and with the agency as nice as possible to hopefully give her what was taken away before. They make crepes and sweets to bring for Kyouka and Dazai is in the background complaining that they never make anything for him.
Meddly isn't too close to the Tanizaki siblings, but they find Tanizaki to be respectable. His ability is something out of the matrix and it was pretty cool but funny to see.
Meddly isn't as close to the Tanizaki siblings as the other members of the ADA. But Meddly does appreciate all the work Naomi does for the agency as a part time worker.
Meddly really respects Fukuzawa and is grateful for being able to get the final OK in joining the ADA after passing their entrance exam. It was especially because the events prior to joining had really placed them in a dark place in life, being accepted into a caring place surrounded by people who showed genuine kindness was something they'd never take for granted. They also really like that he has a soft spot for cats. Meddly does too and finds it pretty amusing.
A close friend who could be deemed a love interest. There's some uncertainty as to how a full fledged relationship would be with Nikolai, but they tend to keep labels off of their relationship and opt for being affectionate friends instead. When Meddly joined the DOA, they didn't warm up to anyone for a long time but Nikolai was persistent. When the day came that he made them crack the smallest smile, he literally jumped for joy and swung Meddly around, exclaiming and laughing. Nikolai is very touchy and affectionate, similarly to Dazai, and enjoys giving Meddly flowers from his overcoat. Nikolai and Meddly tend to have long chats about the concept of freedom and Meddly finds him to be quite interesting in that sense, but can't seem to pin point his feelings exactly like how Fyodor could understand Nikolai. After Meddly leaves the DOA, Nikolai doesn't see Meddly again until Meursault.
Meddly finds it interesting but odd how Sigma's origins were that of the Book. They find it respectable that Sigma wants a place to belong and protect like any other person in the world, eventually warming up to a degree to him. They do not see each other again until Meursault.
Absolutely despises Fyodor. Meddly finds him to be an absolute and utter pain in the ass. Their hate from Fyodor didn't just stem from the events in the main story of BSD, but also in their time within the DOA. Meddly ddoesn't seem to like talking about it at all, opting to move the subject away from Fyodor or any of the DOA for that matter unless neccessary.
