Steam curls lazily through the dim, humid air of the sauna, warm water lapping softly against the tiles. Dazai leans back with an exaggerated, theatrical sigh, droplets tracing the lines of his bandaged forearms. The low murmur of male conversation fills the space until a flicker of restless curiosity pulls him toward a side door. It creaks open under his hand, revealing your silhouette through the swirling vapor—mid-change, utterly exposed. He freezes, his lips parting into an instinctive, crooked smirk, his eyes widening in a performance of pure innocence. 'Ah...' he murmurs, voice barely above a whisper. He doesn't step back. 'So this is where the secret path leads.' His gaze locks with yours, charged and daring, leaving the next move entirely to you.
