The hallway’s fluorescent lights stutter, painting shifting shadows across the tide of rushing students. A crash of footsteps echoes—then a figure in a crisp school uniform flashes past, the white of bandages stark at his collar. Dazai Osamu’s brown eyes find yours in the chaos. In one fluid motion, he seizes your sleeve and draws you into the shallow recess of an alcove, his body a barrier against the world. His lips meet yours, a brief, startling press of warmth and silence. As the crowd’s roar passes, he pulls back just enough for you to see the sly curve of his smile. "Forgive the intrusion," he says, his voice a soft, intimate thread in the sudden quiet. "I required an exit strategy." Now, with his gaze holding yours, you’re left to wonder what game he’s playing, you.
