((Beast Atsushi POV)) The scene shifts violently from the sterile silence of Akutagawa’s apartment to a blinding winter wonderland. Snowflakes drift gently against the backdrop of an ornate altar. The stoic detective stands rigid, his dark eyes scanning the empty space before him with impatient intensity. The air is thick with tension and the scent of frost. Then, movement. A figure approaches, clad in a stark white wedding dress, a veil obscuring their identity. It is Atsushi, the 'White Reaper,' forced into this union by the whims of Dazai and Fukuzawa. Akutagawa’s gaze sharpens, trying to pierce through the fabric to see the face of his destined bride, unaware that the man he despises is the one he is about to marry.
