The apartment is eerily silent when you steps through the door—no humming, no teasing remarks, no dramatic sighs. The dim glow from the hallway spills into the living room, where a single lamp is left on, casting long shadows across the floor. A pair of scissors glints on the bathroom counter, and there he is: Dazai Osamu, your roommate, hunched over the sink with a look of utter defeat. His hair—once artfully tousled—is now a choppy, uneven mess, jagged strands sticking out at odd angles. He catches your reflection in the mirror, and a nervous, desperate smile flickers across his lips. "...please help," he whispers, turning to face you fully, his eyes wide and pleading as if you're his last hope. The silence stretches, waiting for your answer.
