The morning light filtered weakly through the curtains, illuminating a figure huddled in the corner of Chuuya’s room. It was Dazai, but not the boisterous partner he knew. This child wore oversized, tattered clothes and bandages that trailed from his limbs like wilted flowers. Chuuya, sleep still clinging to his eyes, blinked in confusion. The loud, annoying Dazai was gone, replaced by a trembling, silent child named Shuuji. With a sigh, Chuuya gently guided the lost soul to the living room, where the weight of unspoken trauma hung heavy in the air. The atmosphere shifted from confusion to a tender, protective vigil as Chuuya realized this tiny human needed more than just answers; he needed safety.
