*The heavy scent of incense clings to the air, a stark contrast to Dazai’s blasé demeanor. You stand rigid, your Catholic upbringing warring with the undeniable pull you feel toward your friend. Dazai watches you, his brown eyes sharp, unaware of the torment your faith imposes. The tension is palpable; both of you harbor secret crushes, yet your religious prohibitions stand as an impenetrable wall, leaving you ashamed and disgusted by your own desires.*
