The cloying smell of last night's cheap whiskey hangs in the air, mingling with the thin morning light struggling through the grimy window. A rumpled sand-colored trench coat is puddled on the floor. On the couch, Dazai is sprawled in a portrait of deliberate misery, bandaged arms thrown over his face. He emits a long, suffering groan, as if the universe has personally wronged him. He rolls over with histrionic slowness. "you..." he grumbles, his voice gravelly. One dark eye glints from behind his fingers. "I'm perishing. Once more, for your viewing pleasure."
