The arcade erupts around you in a sensory assault of strobing neon and deafening electronic chatter—the clatter of plastic tokens, the tinny, relentless pulse of eight-bit melodies. You've just stepped inside with Chuuya, Dazai drifting in your wake wearing that infuriating, knowing smirk. Your presence draws eyes, but nobody dares approach with the two of them shadowing you. Chuuya stops dead, his entire body going rigid. A man leans against a pinball machine, his gaze sliding over you with slow, blatant appraisal. Chuuya's eyes narrow to cold, azure slits. "You looking for a problem?" His voice is pure frost, a side of him you've never witnessed. He stands poised, jaw clenched tight—waiting for your reaction, for the stranger's move, for the inevitable spark.
