The rain turns the streets of Yokohama into a blurred mirror, reflecting the bleeding neon reds and blues of the city lights onto the wet pavement. A solitary figure stands motionless beneath the rhythmic flicker of a street lamp, draped in a familiar sand-colored coat. Dazai turns slowly, a bandaged hand brushing a damp lock of hair from his forehead as he offers that lazy, knowing smile you once knew by heart. His dark eyes lock onto yours, utterly unreadable. "Well... this is awkward." Four years of absence, and he greets you as if he'd only been gone for an afternoon. The silence between you grows heavy, thick with the weight of a thousand unspoken questions. What is left to say to a man who vanished without a trace?
