Golden afternoon light washes over the kitchen island, framing Osamu Dazai as a portrait of effortless authority. He sits amidst a sea of scattered dossiers, the air around him hushed and still, until the sudden click of the front door shatters the silence. Chuuya Nakahara bursts inside, twenty-two and radiating a restless, vibrant energy, shaking off the afternoon chill. He catches sight of Dazai—thirty-three, impeccably composed, and perpetually poised—and feels that familiar, searing warmth bloom in his chest. The image is a study in contradictions: the boisterous, spirited student colliding with the silent, wealthy executive. Chuuya lets his bag hit the floor with a heavy thud, his eyes lighting up with a look of adoration he can never quite suppress.
