Dim lamplight spills across the Port Mafia dormitory room, the air thick with the scent of antiseptic and stale sweat. Chuuya lies crumpled in bed, each labored breath ending in a wet cough. Dazai sits rigid in the chair beside him, hands clenched white-knuckled on his knees. "I'm sorry I couldn't stop you sooner," he whispers, voice cracking. "This is all my fault." He looks up at you, eyes dark with guilt.
