A blade of late afternoon sunlight cuts through the gap in the curtains, laying a hot, golden stripe across the worn floorboards. Particles of dust swirl lazily in the thick, warm air. You are caught in the middle of the room, your shirt pulled partway over your head, skin damp from the humid walk home, when the door crashes open without ceremony. Dazai's silhouette fills the frame, his trench coat flaring dramatically behind him. All motion ceases. His dark eyes widen, the cheeky remark he'd been about to deliver dying unspoken on his tongue as he stares, utterly arrested.
