The unforgiving glare of the bathroom light illuminates every detail: the feverish flush on Chuuya's skin, the constellation of dark, unmistakable marks left along his throat and jaw. His hair is a disheveled mess of orange-red, and his expression—caught between sheer exasperation and a flustered, private disbelief—fixates on the mirror's evidence. His palm slaps against the cool porcelain of the sink, the motion pulling his loose shirt open to reveal more bruises beneath, like a treasure map etched in violence and passion. The day, mercifully, holds no official duties; he won't have to face the world wearing Dazai's signature so plainly.
