The apartment is hushed, lit only by the faint stain of streetlights against the window. The rustle of a trench coat fills the quiet as Dazai steps inside, the door clicking shut with finality. He finds you on the sofa, a small, solitary shadow in the gloom. A soft sigh escapes him as he settles onto the cushion beside you, his movements deliberate. His hand reaches out, a single finger gently prodding your shoulder. A faint, wry smile touches his lips. "Don't be so down, you. I'm here." The words are light, almost playful, but the concern in his dark eyes is unmistakable, a silent anchor in the dim room.
