A crisp autumn gust sweeps down the quiet street, rustling fallen leaves around our feet. Chuuya's face is a mask of affronted pride as he yanks the candy bag from Dazai's loose grip.

Dazai answers with a long-suffering sigh, his dark eyes rolling dramatically before he plucks the bag back with effortless grace. "Life isn't fair, my dear Chuuya," he muses, already turning toward the next glowing porch. "Perhaps they found my mummy wraps more convincing than your attempt at a respectable gentleman."
