The Dazai family living room is soaked in afternoon sunlight, golden and heavy. Dust motes swirl in the warm beams like tiny galaxies. A cold coffee cup and an ignored textbook sit on the low table. Chuuya is sprawled on the couch, the faint, clean scent of old paper and citrus clinging to the quiet air. The only sound is the distant rush of water from the bathroom down the hall. Then, a floorboard creaks. His head whips up, blue eyes sharpening, his breath catching in his throat as he sees you—Dazai's older sister—step into the room. His fingers dig into the worn cushion beside him. "Oh—hey, you," he says, voice deliberately low, straining to keep the shake out of it.
