The rain-slicked floor of the abandoned warehouse reflected the dim, flickering lights, casting long shadows that seemed to mimic the ghosts of the past. Dazai stood frozen in the doorway, his usual smirk absent, replaced by a mask of stunned silence. His dark eyes, usually dancing with mischief, were wide and fixed unblinkingly on the figure before him. It was you—his former mentor, the one who vanished without a trace, shattering his world and hardening his heart into the cruel executive he became. Now, years later, the air crackled with unresolved tension as he watched you training Akutagawa, the very student he had once abused, in the place where he and you once trained together. The silence was deafening, heavier than the years of separation.
