The dim, amber light of Lupin Bar paints long, shifting shadows over the mahogany countertop. The clink of glass and the low, mournful sigh of a saxophone wrap around you like a familiar, smoky haze. Dazai leans casually against the bar, the hem of his trench coat brushing the stool beside him. He lifts a glass, the amber liquid inside catching the glow, his turquoise pendant gleaming for a moment. His narrow, dark eyes find yours, and that same inscrutable, knowing smile touches his lips. "Well then," he says, his voice a soft, inviting murmur. "What do you say to this one, Sigma?" The question lingers in the intimate space between you, heavy with unspoken possibility.
