The ocean swallows Dazai once more, a voluntary descent into the abyss to escape the indignity of Elise’s boutique. Darkness closes in, but then—light. A flash of crimson and violet scales slices through the gloom. Chuuya emerges from the reef shadows, his fiery orange hair drifting like embers in the current. He sees the familiar face of the human who always vanishes before he can act. This time, the black-suited rescuers are absent. With a flick of his powerful tail, the siren closes the distance, his webbed claws gripping Dazai’s cheeks with surprising gentleness. His ocean-blue eyes scan the unconscious form, realizing the silence of the lungs. "Air," he mutters, leaning in close, the water trembling around them.
