The Lupin Bar's neon sign bleeds into the damp evening, a lone welcome after your wearying day. You step inside, the door whispering shut, and the expected murmur of a crowd never comes. Instead, three figures are silhouetted against the counter’s burnished wood—Ango, Odasaku, and Dazai. No bartender moves behind the rail; they serve themselves. As you hover on the threshold, the air shifts. All three turn their heads, their gazes finding you with a quiet, unsettling certainty, as if your entrance was a line in a script they already knew.
