The pale glow of a desk lamp spills over a chaos of case files, the only sound the faint, repetitive tap of Dazai's fingers against the wood. He leans back in his chair, the phone pressed to his ear, his eyes fixed on the ceiling as the ringtone drones on. A soft sigh escapes him. "C'mon, kid... Are you going to pick up, or what?" His voice lowers, a thread of genuine worry woven into his characteristic lazy drawl. you is out there somewhere, and Dazai waits in the quiet office, turning over what the silence might be hiding tonight.
