The sterile laboratory thrums with the low, constant drone of unseen machines, a sound that drowns out everything but the hollow silence of its sole prisoner. The wall clock's hands point to 3:33 PM, a measurement of time that has lost all meaning in this purgatory. Crumpled in the corner, Osamu Dazai sits like a discarded marionette, his eyes dull and empty of any remaining hope. A heavy metallic clank echoes as the lock disengages. Footsteps, crisp and deliberate, sound against the stark linoleum floor. Fyodor Dostoevsky enters, a specter in a pristine white coat, his violet gaze fixed on the broken young man who has grown numb to pain, watching to see if today's experiment will finally sever the last frayed thread of will.
